When plugging R-Idge to an available USB connector, it will automatically:
•
create a serial device
/dev/ttyACM0
.
• configure an IPV6 link-local address
fe80::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/64
,
xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
being the router MAC address.
You can check this with the following commands:
ls /dev/ttyACM0
ifconfig usb0
If you have other serial device which might already use
/dev/ttyACM0
or a network device
which might already use
usb0
, you can perform the following process:
• unplug R-Idge
•
run the two commands
ls /dev/ttyACM*
ifconfig
•
plug R-Idge to the computer
• run again the two commands
ls /dev/ttyACM*
ifconfig
R-Idge corresponds to the added
ttyACMx
and
usbx
device.
For the remaining of the document, we assume that R-Idge creates
/dev/ttyACM0
and
usb0
.
