6LoWPAN Border Router with KL41z or custom board

I am new to mbed os and want to use the nanostack, configured as a border router and IPv4/IPv6 gateway, using a KL41z-frdm board for prototyping. In the examples, the nanostack code is precompiled and does only support few specific boards. Are there Open-source examples of 6LBRs and gateways, which could be ported to a custom board? Thanks!

There are a lots of industry focused open source SMS gateway software solutions. you can use PlaySMS without a cost (free)which is featured web-based SMS management system. for further information about pen source visit: https://www.belkinroutersupportnumber.com/belkin-n300-router/

Hi Richard,

Thanks for your question :)

Have you had a look at: https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/mbed-6LoWPAN-Border-Router-HAT/

As a starting point?

This has all the hardware files and such to create and abstract as you need. This maybe useful for you :)

If not i can point in other directions :)

Best Regards,

Andrea, team mbed

Hi thank you, it does help indeed, since it shows an other and useful approach for my problem!

The only problem left is: what can i do, if i want not to use the K64f as a border router, rather the KL41z as single chip solution? My problem is the lack of RF drivers or i just don't know where to look for it. I found that helpful page: https://docs.mbed.com/docs/arm-ipv66lowpan-stack/en/latest/driver_api/ Is there a list of existing implementations of the NanoStackRFPhy Interface or some open source implementations as example to implement my own? A concrete open source example and a list of the current available implementations of the NanoStackRFPhy interface would be great! :-)

Thank you and best regards, Richard
