OpenThread Border Router Example
Overview
This example demonstrates an OpenThread border router.
How to use example
Hardware Required
The following SoCs are required to run this example:
- An ESP32 series Wi-Fi SoC (ESP32, ESP32-C, ESP32-S, etc) loaded with this ot_br example.
- An ESP32-H2 802.15.4 SoC loaded with ot_rcp example.
- Another ESP32-H2 SoC loaded with ot_cli example. Enable
OPENTHREAD_JOINER
option in menuconfig before compiling the example.
Connect the two SoCs via UART, below is an example setup with ESP32 DevKitC and ESP32-H2 DevKitC:
ESP32 pin | ESP32-H2 pin |
---|---|
GND | G |
GPIO4 | TX |
GPIO5 | RX |
Configure the project
idf.py menuconfig
Two ways are provided to setup the Thread Border Router in this example:
-
Auto Start Enable
OPENTHREAD_BR_AUTO_START
, configure theCONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_SSID
andCONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_PASSWORD
with your access point's ssid and psk. The device will connect to Wi-Fi and form a Thread network automatically after bootup. -
Manual mode Disable
OPENTHREAD_BR_AUTO_START
and enableOPENTHREAD_CLI_ESP_EXTENSION
.wifi
command will be added for connecting the device to the Wi-Fi network.
Build, Flash, and Run
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor
If the OPENTHREAD_BR_AUTO_START
option is enabled, The device will be connected to the configured Wi-Fi and Thread network automatically then act as the border router.
Otherwise, you need to manually configure the networks with CLI commands.
wifi
command can be used to configure the Wi-Fi network.
> wifi
--wifi parameter---
connect
-s : wifi ssid
-p : wifi psk
---example---
join a wifi:
ssid: threadcertAP
psk: threadcertAP : wifi connect -s threadcertAP -p threadcertAP

Done
To join a Wi-Fi network, please use the wifi connect
command:
> wifi connect -s threadcertAP -p threadcertAP

Using the border agent feature
You need to build ot-commissioner on the host machine and another Thread end device running OpenThread cli.
You can find the guide to build and run ot-commissioner here.
Make sure to configure the same PSKc as the one in sdkconfig in ot-commisioner's config file non-ccm-config.json
Connect the commissioner to the border router
Note that the target address 192.168.1.100
shall match the actual Wi-Fi IP address of the device. 49154
is a port number used by the OT commissioner.
$ commissioner-cli /usr/local/etc/commissioner/non-ccm-config.json
> start 192.168.1.100 49154
[done]
> active
true
[done]
You can also verify the commissioner connection from the border router's log:

The device has now joined the same Thread network based on the key set by the commissioner.
Bidirectional IPv6 connectivity
The border router will automatically publish the prefix and the route table rule to the Wi-Fi network via ICMPv6 router advertisement packages.
Host configuration
The automatically configure your host's route table rules you need to set these sysctl options:
Please replace wlan0
with the real name of your Wi-Fi network interface.
sudo sysctl -w net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/accept_ra=2
sudo sysctl -w net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/accept_ra_rt_info_max_plen=128
For mobile devices, the route table rules will be automatically configured after iOS 14 and Android 8.1.
Testing IPv6 connectivity
Now in the joining device, check the IP addresses:
> ipaddr
fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5
fdde:ad00:beef:0:0:ff:fe00:c402
fdde:ad00:beef:0:ad4a:9a9a:3cd6:e423
fe80:0:0:0:f011:2951:569e:9c4a
You'll notice an IPv6 global prefix with only on address assigned under it. This is the routable address of this Thread node. You can ping this address on your host:
$ ping fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5
PING fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5(fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5) 56 data bytes

64 bytes from fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5: icmp_seq=4 ttl=63 time=117 ms
Service discovery
The newly introduced service registration protocol(SRP) allows devices in the Thread network to register a service. The border router will forward the service to the Wi-Fi network via mDNS.
Now we'll publish the service my-service._test._udp
with hostname test0
and port 12345
> srp client host name test0
Done
> srp client host address fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5
Done
> srp client service add my-service _test._udp 12345
Done
> srp client autostart enable
Done
This service will also become visible on the Wi-Fi network:
$ avahi-browse -r _test._udp -t
+ enp1s0 IPv6 my-service _test._udp local
= enp1s0 IPv6 my-service _test._udp local
hostname = [test0.local]
address = [fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5]
port = [12345]
txt = []
+ enp1s0 IPv4 my-service _test._udp local
= enp1s0 IPv4 my-service _test._udp local
hostname = [test0.local]
