@ -15,8 +15,8 @@ Problem: How do we get internet access to an IoT device?
2. Wifi Internet: Same as wired. But special care must be taken on a "unclean" system. Desktop systems tend to come with running network management utilities and daemons running. To avoid them interfereing with the AP card special care must be taken, see e.g. [[nmcli]].
So what must a toolkit which sets up the experiment environment be able to do:
1. __AP Service__ Through config or detection setup a properly configure AP, possibly on a external adapter
2. __Internet Service__ Enable any IoT device to connect to the Internet
3. __Internet Service dependencies__ Since the experiment machine is replacing some functionality usually offered by the router to connecting host, some router functionality must be offerd. In particular [[dhcp]] (IoT device needs an IP) and [[dns]] (IoT device needs some way to get IPs of hosts it wants to connect to). That is, test machine must at least be a [[gateway]] and the IoT device should ideally be able to understand that without any configuration.

# AP Configuration
## Using NetworkManager
See [here](https://variwiki.com/index.php?title=Wifi_NetworkManager#Configuring_WiFi_Access_Point_with_NetworkManager). Can use the command line tool [[nmcli]].
