Interactive Wiki site for ChirpStack installation documentation<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The system follows the following pattern:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Enabling this toggle will display all the ChirpStack settings and automatically configure the LoRa Packet Forwarder Server Settings<\/p>\n From the LoRa Packet Forwarder side, enabling this setting will do the following:<\/p>\n Setup your Channel Plan and other relevant settings.<\/p>\n Setup the relevant settings. The Port Bind within the Backend section is automatically synced with the LoRa Packet Forwarder<\/p>\n This mode assumes you have generic MQTT Server(s) and let you setup all standard MQTT Server settings. The MQTT Broker should be the IP address of the Chirpstack install and not the default 127.0.0.1 value shown below.<\/p>\n This mode sets you set the Azure specific requirements.<\/p>\n Enabling this toggle will display all the ChirpStack settings and automatically configure the LoRa Basic Station Server Settings<\/p>\n From the LoRa Basic Station side, enabling this setting will do the following:<\/p>\n Setup your station config depending on your hardware. Example configurations can be found here<\/a><\/p>\n This should be set to LNS mode<\/p>\n This parameter sets up the Websocket for the LoRa Basic Station. The format is:<\/p>\n There are two options available:<\/p>\n If you would like the communication between the LoRa Basic Station and the ChirpStack Gateway Bridge to be encrypted, you will need to setup the relevant certificates.<\/p>\n Two of the most popular modes are:<\/p>\n You will need to fill in the Server Cert with its data<\/p>\n You will need to fill in the Server Cert, Gateway Cert and Gateway Key with their data<\/p>\n This section lets you generate a channel plan. The channels defined here need to match the LoRa Basic Station<\/p>\n The UDP Bind needs the server to be localhost and the port needs to match whatever you set in the LoRa Basic Station URI. If you configured certificates for the WebSocket communication in the LoRa Basic Station configuration, these certs will need to be matched here.<\/p>\n This mode assumes you have generic MQTT Server(s) and let you setup all standard MQTT Server settings. The MQTT Broker should be the IP address of the Chirpstack install and not the default 127.0.0.1 value shown below.<\/p>\nSystem Design<\/h2>\n
