| OpenThread NCP |
| ############## |
| |
| Overview |
| ******** |
| |
| OpenThread NCP allows building a Thread Border Router. The code in this |
| sample is only the MCU target part of a complete Thread Border Router. |
| The Linux tools from https://openthread.io/guides/border-router |
| (especially wpantund and wpanctl) are required to get a complete Thread |
| Border Router. |
| |
| The source code for this sample application can be found at: |
| :zephyr_file:`samples/net/openthread/ncp`. |
| |
| Building and Running |
| ******************** |
| |
| Build the OpenThread NCP sample application like this: |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/net/openthread/ncp |
| :board: <board to use> |
| :conf: <config file to use> |
| :goals: build |
| :compact: |
| |
| There are configuration files for different boards and setups in the |
| ncp directory: |
| |
| - :file:`prj.conf` |
| Generic config file, normally you should use this. |
| |
| - :file:`overlay-tri-n4m-br.conf` |
| This is an overlay for the dedicated Thread Border Router hardware |
| https://www.tridonic.com/com/en/products/net4more-borderROUTER-PoE-Thread.asp. |
| The board support is not part of the Zephyr repositories, but the |
| product is based on NXP K64 and AT86RF233. This file can be used as an |
| example for a development set-up based on development boards. |
