Logging In - FreeWaveTechnologies/ZumIQ GitHub Wiki

There are three different ways to login to the IQ-enabled device:

  • Serial Connection using the Micro-USB port on the device.
  • SSH Connection via network (either Ethernet connection or over-the-air).
  • Website via network (either Ethernet connection or over-the-air).

When logging in via Serial or SSH connections, the choice of user name will determine the shell that you have access to:

User Name Default Password Account Type Shell
admin admin Device Administrator ZumLink CLI
devuser devuser App Developer Linux Environment

NOTE: The "devuser" account has all the privileges of the "admin" account.

Serial Connection

To use the serial connection, use a serial terminal application. For Windows, Tera Term and PuTTY are popular at FreeWave. For Linux, the screen utility is useful.

1. Connect a Micro-USB cable between your computer and the device.

2. Configure your serial terminal application with the following parameters:

Parameter Value
Baud Rate 115200
Data Bits 8
Parity None
Stop Bits 1
Flow Control None

3. Login with the user name "devuser" to enter the Linux Environment Bash shell, or login with the user name "admin" to enter the ZumLink CLI.

SSH Connection

To use the SSH connection, use an SSH terminal application. Tera Term and PuTTY also provide this functionality, or use the ssh command line utility if it is installed on your system.

1. Ensure that the device is on a subnet reachable from your computer. This can be done either by changing the network settings of your computer (if connected directly via an Ethernet cable), or by changing the network settings of the device itself. Refer to the ZumLink or ZumIQ User Manual for more information.

2. Verify that you have a network connection to the device (this example assumes that the computer has an IP address in 192.168.111.* subnet and the radio is using the default IP address of 192.168.111.100):

    C:\demo> ping 192.168.111.100

    C:\demo>    

3. Login with the user name "devuser" to enter the Linux Environment Bash shell, or login with the user name "admin" to enter the ZumLink CLI. If using the ssh command line program, the syntax is as follows:

    C:\demo> ssh [email protected]
    [email protected]'s password:
    devuser@freewave-ib:~$
