This in a single image to run many types of hardware in the AP391x
series (AP3912/AP3915/AP3916/AP3917/AP7662).
Hardware
--------
Qualcomm IPQ4029 WiSoC
2T2R 802.11 abgn
2T2R 802.11 nac
Macronix MX25L25635E SPI-NOR (32M)
512M DDR3 RAM
1-4x Gigabit Ethernet
Senao EXT1025 HD Camera (AP3916 only)
USB 2.0 Port (AP3915e only)
1x Cisco RJ-45 Console port
- except for AP3916 and AP3912 where there is no external serial
console and it is TDB how to solder one. Possibly J12 is UART with
pin1 = 3.3V, pin2 = GND, pin3 = TXD, pin4 = RXD.
- Settings: 115200 8N1
Installation With Serial Console
--------------------------------
1. Attach to the Console port. Power up the device and press the s key
to interrupt autoboot.
2. The default username / password to the bootloader is admin / new2day
3. Check uboot variables using printenv, and update if necessary:
$ setenv AP_MODE 0
$ setenv WATCHDOG_COUNT 0
$ setenv WATCHDOG_LIMIT 0
$ setenv AP_PERSONALITY identifi
$ setenv serverip <SERVER_IPADDR>
$ setenv ipaddr <UNIQUE_IPADDR>
$ setenv MOSTRECENTKERNEL 0; ## OpenWRT only uses the primary image
$ saveenv
$ saveenv ## 2nd time to write the secondary copy
4. On the TFTP server located at <SERVER_IPADDR>, download the OpenWrt
initramfs image. Rename and serve it as vmlinux.gz.uImage.3912
5. TFTP boot the OpenWrt initramfs image from the AP serial console:
$ run boot_net
6. Wait for OpenWrt to start. Internet port sw-eth5 is assiged to LAN
bridge and sw-eth4 (if available) is assigned to WAN. The LAN port
will use default IP address 192.168.1.1 and run a DHCP server.
If you already have a working DHCP server or already have 192.168.1.1
on your network you MUST DISCONNECT the LAN cable from your active
network immediately after the power/status LED turns green!
At this point, you need to temporarily reconfigure the AP to have
a way to transfer the OpenWRT sysupgrade image to it.
Reconfigure the newly converted OpenWRT AP using serial console or
plug in a PC to a sw-eth5 as a separate network. Note -- the LAN/WAN
port assignments were designed to make it possible to convert to
OpenWRT without serial console and using a common firmware
image for many AP models -- they may not make the most sense when
fully deployed.
7. Download and transfer the sysupgrade image to the device using e.g.
SCP.
8. Install OpenWrt to the device using "sysupgrade"
$ sysupgrade -n /path/to/openwrt.bin
9. After it boots up again, as in step 6, connect to AP and reconfigure
for final deployment.
This build supports APs in the AP391x series and similar such as WiNG
AP7662.
Ethernet devices within OpenWRT are named "sw-eth1" thru "sw-eth5".
Mapping from OpenWRT internal naming to external naming on the case is
as follows:
```
|sw-eth1|sw-eth2|sw-eth3|sw-eth4|sw-eth5
------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------
AP3917 | | | | GE2 | GE1
------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------
AP7662 | | | | GE2 | GE1
------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------
AP3916 | | | | CAM* | GE1
------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------
AP3915 | | | | | GE1
------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------
AP3912 | | P1 | P2 | P3 | LAN1
------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------
```
By default sw-eth4 is mapped to WAN. All others are assigned to the
LAN.
CAM* - On AP3916, sw-eth4 is the camera's interface. You should
reconfigure this to be on LAN after OpenWRT boots from flash.
Installation Without Serial Console
-----------------------------------
The main premise is to set u-boot environment variables using the
Extreme Networks firmware's rdwr_boot_cfg program.
$ rdwr_boot_cfg
Utility to manipulate the boot ROM config blocks
All errors are written to the sytem log file (/tmp/log/ap.log)
```
Usage: rdwr_boot_cfg <read_all|read_var|read_var_f|write_var|rm_var> ...
read_all read the entire active block
read_var <var> read a single variable from the active block
read_var_f <var> read a single variable from the active block
(formatted)
write_var <var=val> write a single variable/value pair to both
blocks
rm_var <var> delete a single variable from both blocks
```
WARNING: Be very sure you have set the u-boot environment correctly.
If not, it can only be fixed by attaching serial console!
Be aware that the Extreme Networks shell environment will automatically
reboot every 5 minutes if there is no controller present.
Read and understand these steps fully before attempting. It is easy
to make mistakes!
1. Place the OpenWRT initramfs on the TFTP server and name it as
vmlinux.gz.uImage.3912
2. Boot up to Extreme Networks WING-Campus mode OS. Port GE1/LAN1
will be a DHCP **client**. Find out the IP address from your DHCP
server and SSH in. Default user/passwd is admin/new2day or
admin/admin123.
If it is booting to WING-Distributed mode, use this command to
convert to Campus mode.
$ operational-mode centralized
3. Upon bootup you have about 5mins to changed these u-boot variables
if necessary using the rdwr_boot_cfg command in Linux shell:
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var AP_MODE=0
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var MOSTRECENTKERNEL=0
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var WATCHDOG_COUNT=0
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var WATCHDOG_LIMIT=0
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var AP_PERSONALITY=identifi
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var serverip=<SERVER_IPADDR>
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var ipaddr=<UNIQUE_IPADDR>
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var bootcmd="run boot_net"
4. Reboot AP.
5. Connect PC with ethernet to GE1/LAN1 port. You should get a
DHCP address in the 192.168.1.x range and should be able to
SSH to the new OpenWRT TFTP recovery/installation shell.
6. At this point, u-boot is still set to TFTP boot, so you have to
replace the TFTP image with the original Extreme Networks image so
that you can change the u-boot environment.
See the instructions for Extracting Extreme Networks firmware
image.
DON'T REBOOT YET!
7. Next you must follow steps 6 thru 8 from the Installation with serial
console. After which you should have OpenWRT installed to primary
flash firmware.
8. Now Reboot. This time it will boot using TFTP into Extreme Networks
image. You may need to reconnect cables at this point -- GE1/LAN1
will be a DHCP **client** and you can SSH in -- just like step 2.
Get the IP address from you own DHCP server.
9. Set u-boot env as follows:
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var MOSTRECENTKERNEL=0
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var WATCHDOG_COUNT=0
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var bootcmd="run boot_flash"
10. Reboot AP. This time it should be into OpenWRT. GE1/LAN1 will be
a DHCP **server** and have static IP 192.168.1.1 -- just like step 5.
11. SSH into the LAN port and reconfigure to final configuration. Don't
make any changes that prevent you from SSH or Luci access!
Restoring Extreme Networks firmware
-----------------------------------
Assuming you have the original Extreme Networks image:
1. Login to OpenWRT shell
2. scp the Extreme Networks packaged firmware image file AP391x-*.img to
/tmp
3. Extract the firmware uimage file:
$ tar xjf AP391x-*.img vmlinux.gz.uImage
4. Force run sysupgrade:
$ sysupgrade -F /tmp/AP391x-*.img /
5. Restore the u-boot varable(s):
$ rdwr_boot_cfg write_var WATCHDOG_LIMIT=3
USB 2.0 Port on AP3915e

Enable this by setting LED "eth:amber_or_usb_enable" to ALWAYS ON.

The calibration data and mac addresses on this device are stored in the
0:ART partition. It is therefore possible to move the code to handle them
directly to the devicetree instead of the various scripts.
But the actual relevant information about the partition layout is provided
by the bootloader via bootargs (mtdparts) and not via the devicetree
itself. Instead of using a fixed-partition template, the mtd dynamic
partitions support from the upstream kernel is used.

As done previously, this preserves the MAC addresses of they physical
Ethernet ports. The interfaces are renamed as eth0 is in use for the
native GMAC; the new interface naming matches the physical port labels.
- sw-eth1 corresponds to the physical port labeled ETH1 and has the
base MAC address. This port can be used to power the device.
- sw-eth2 corresponds to the physical port labeled ETH2 and has a MAC
address one greater than the base.
As this device has 2 physical ports, they are each connected to their
respective PHYs, allowing the link status to be visible to software.
Since they are not marked on the case with any role (such as LAN or
WAN), both are bridged to the lan network by default, although this can
easily be changed if needed.

To modify a retail device to run OpenWRT firmware:
1) Setup a TFTP server on IP address 192.168.0.100 and copy the OpenWRT
initramfs (initramfs-fit-uImage.itb) to the TFTP root as 'uploadfile'.
2) Power on the device while pressing the recessed reset button next to
the Ethernet ports. This causes the bootloader to retrieve and start
the initramfs.
3) Once the initramfs is booted, the device will come up with IP
192.168.1.1. You can then connect through SSH (allow some time for
the first connection).
4) On the device shell, run 'fw_printenv' to show the U-boot environment.
Backup this information since it contains device unique factory data.
5) Change the boot command to support booting OpenWRT:
# fw_setenv bootcmd 'sf probe && sf read 0x84000000 0x180000 0x400000 && bootm'
6) Change directory to /tmp, download the sysupgrade (e.g. through wget)
and install it with sysupgrade. The device will reboot into OpenWRT.
Notice that there is currently no support for booting the G.hn chip.
This requires userland software we lack the rights to share right now.

Installation (Through Serial console & TFTP):
1. Set your PC to fixed IP 192.168.1.12, Netmask 255.255.255.0, and connect to
one of the LAN ports
2. Rename the initramfs image to 'C0A8010B.img' and enable a TFTP server on
your pc, to serve the image
2. Connect to the router through serial (See connection properties above)
3. Hit a key during startup, to pause startup
4. type `setenv serverip 192.168.1.12`, to set the tftp server address
5. type `tftpboot`, to load the image from the laptop through tftp
6. type `bootm` to run the loaded image from memory
6. (If you want to return to stock firmware later, create an full MTD backup,
e.g. using instructions here https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/installation/generic.backup#create_full_mtd_backup)
7. Transfer the 'sysupgrade' OpenWrt firmware image from PC to router, e.g.:
`scp xxx-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/upgrade.bin`
8. Run sysupgrade to permanently install OpenWrt to flash: `sysupgrade -n /tmp/upgrade.bin`
Revert to stock:
To revert to stock, you need the MTD backup from step 6 above:
1. Unpack the MTD backup archive
2. Transfer the 'firmware' partition image to the router (e.g. mtd8_firmware.backup)
3. On the router, do `mtd write mtd8_firmware.backup firmware`

To connect to the serial console, you can solder to the labled pads next
to the USB port or use your Aruba supplied UARt adapter.
Do NOT plug a standard USB cable into the Console labled USB-port!
Aruba/HPE simply put UART on the micro-USB pins. You can solder yourself
an adapter cable:
VCC - NC
D+ - TX
D- - RX
GND - GND
The console setting in bootloader and OS is 9600 8N1. Voltage level is
3.3V.
To enable a full list of commands in the U-Boot "help" command, execute
the literal "diag" command.
Installation
------------
1. Get the OpenWrt initramfs image. Rename it to ipq40xx.ari and put it
into the TFTP server root directory. Configure the TFTP server to
be reachable at 192.168.1.75/24. Connect the machine running the TFTP
server to the ethernet port of the access point.
2. Connect to the serial console. Interrupt autobooting by pressing
Enter when prompted.
3. Configure the bootargs and bootcmd for OpenWrt.
$ setenv bootargs_openwrt "setenv bootargs console=ttyMSM1,9600n8"
$ setenv nandboot_openwrt "run bootargs_openwrt; ubi part aos1;
ubi read 0x85000000 kernel; bootm 0x85000000"
$ setenv ramboot_openwrt "run bootargs_openwrt;
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.105; setenv serverip 192.168.1.75;
netget; set fdt_high 0x87000000; bootm"
$ setenv bootcmd "run nandboot_openwrt"
$ saveenv
4. Load OpenWrt into RAM:
$ run ramboot_openwrt
5. After OpenWrt booted, transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the
/tmp folder on the device.
6. Flash OpenWrt:
$ ubidetach -p /dev/mtd1
$ ubiformat /dev/mtd1
$ sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-sysupgrade.bin
To go back to the stock firmware, simply reset the bootcmd in the
bootloader to the original value:
$ setenv bootcmd "boot"
$ saveenv

This changes the offsets for the MAC address location in
mtd_get_mac_binary* and mtd_get_mac_text to hexadecimal notation.
This will be much clearer for the reader when numbers are big, and
will also match the style used for mtd-mac-address in DTS files.
(e.g. 0x1006 and 0x5006 are much more useful than 4102 and 20486)

The Linksys EA8300 is based on QCA4019 and QCA9888 and provides three,
independent radios. NAND provides two, alternate kernel/firmware
images with fail-over provided by the OEM U-Boot.
Installation:
"Factory" images may be installed directly through the OEM GUI.
Hardware Highlights:
* IPQ4019 at 717 MHz (4 CPUs)
* 256 MB NAND (Winbond W29N02GV, 8-bit parallel)
* 256 MB RAM
* Three, fully-functional radios; `iw phy` reports (FCC/US, -CT):
* 2.4 GHz radio at 30 dBm
* 5 GHz radio on ch. 36-64 at 23 dBm
* 5 GHz radio on ch. 100-144 at 23 dBm (DFS), 149-165 at 30 dBm
#{ managed } <= 16, #{ AP, mesh point } <= 16, #{ IBSS } <= 1
* All two-stream, MCS 0-9

"Linksys Dallas WiFi AP router based on Qualcomm AP DK07.1-c1"
Implementation Notes:
The OEM flash layout is preserved at this time with 3 MB kernel and
~69 MB UBIFS for each firmware version. The sysdiag (1 MB) and
syscfg (56 MB) partitions are untouched, available as read-only.
Serial Connectivity:
Serial connectivity is *not* required to flash.
Serial may be accessed by opening the device and connecting
a 3.3-V adapter using 115200, 8n1. U-Boot access is good,
including the ability to load images over TFTP and
either run or flash them.
Looking at the top of the board, from the front of the unit,
J3 can be found on the right edge of the board, near the rear

pre-soldered. Pinout:
1. 3v3 (Label printed on the PCB), 2. RX, 3. GND, 4. TX
first install / debricking / restore stock:
0. Have a PC running a tftp-server @ 192.168.1.99/24
1. connect the PC to any LAN-Ports
2. put the openwrt...-factory.bin (or V1.00(ABCT.X).bin for stock) file
into the tftp-server root directory and rename it to just "ras.bin".
3. power-cycle the router and hold down the the WPS button (for 30sek)
4. Wait (for a long time - the serial console provides some progress
reports. The u-boot says it best: "Please be patient".
5. Once the power LED starts to flashes slowly and the USB + WPS LEDs
flashes fast at the same time. You have to reboot the device and
it should then come right up.
Installation via Web-UI:
0. Connect a PC to the powered-on router. It will assign your PC a
IP-address via DHCP
1. Access the Web-UI at 192.168.1.1 (Default Passwort: 1234)
2. Go to the "Expert Mode"
3. Under "Maintenance", select "Firmware-Upgrade"
4. Upload the OpenWRT factory image
5. Wait for the Device to finish.
It will reboot into OpenWRT without any additional actions needed.
To open the ZyXEL NBG6617:
0. remove the four rubber feet glued on the backside
1. remove the four philips screws and pry open the top cover
(by applying force between the plastic top housing from the
backside/lan-port side)
Access the real u-boot shell:
ZyXEL uses a proprietary loader/shell on top of u-boot: "ZyXEL zloader v2.02"
When the device is starting up, the user can enter the the loader shell
by simply pressing a key within the 3 seconds once the following string
appears on the serial console:
| Hit any key to stop autoboot: 3
The user is then dropped to a locked shell.
|NBG6617> HELP
|ATEN x[,y] set BootExtension Debug Flag (y=password)
|ATSE x show the seed of password generator
|ATSH dump manufacturer related data in ROM
|ATRT [x,y,z,u] RAM read/write test (x=level, y=start addr, z=end addr, u=iterations)
|ATGO boot up whole system
|ATUR x upgrade RAS image (filename)
|NBG6617>
In order to escape/unlock a password challenge has to be passed.
Note: the value is dynamic! you have to calculate your own!
First use ATSE $MODELNAME (MODELNAME is the hostname in u-boot env)
to get the challange value/seed.

Serial:
WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 3V3 level converter!
The Serial setting is 115200-8-N-1. The board has a populated
1x4 0.1" header with half-height/low profile pins.
The pinout is: VCC (little white arrow), RX, TX, GND.
Flashing needs a serial adaptor, as well as patched ubootwrite utility
(needs Little-Endian support). And a modified u-boot (enabled Ethernet).
Meraki's original u-boot source can be found in:
<https://github.com/riptidewave93/meraki-uboot/tree/mr33-20170427>
Add images to do an installation via bootloader:
0. open up the MR33 and connect the serial console.
1. start the 2nd stage bootloader transfer from client pc:
# ubootwrite.py --write=mr33-uboot.bin
(The ubootwrite tool will interrupt the boot-process and hence
it needs to listen for cues. If the connection is bad (due to
the low-profile pins), the tool can fail multiple times and in
weird ways. If you are not sure, just use a terminal program
and see what the device is doing there.
2. power on the MR33 (with ethernet + serial cables attached)
Warning: Make sure you do this in a private LAN that has
no connection to the internet.
- let it upload the u-boot this can take 250-300 seconds -
3. use a tftp client (in binary mode!) on your PC to upload the sysupgrade.bin
(the u-boot is listening on 192.168.1.1)
# tftp 192.168.1.1
binary
put openwrt-ipq40xx-meraki_mr33-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
4. wait for it to reboot
5. connect to your MR33 via ssh on 192.168.1.1
For more detailed instructions, please take a look at the:
"Flashing Instructions for the MR33" PDF. This can be found
on the wiki: <https://openwrt.org/toh/meraki/mr33>
(A link to the mr33-uboot.bin + the modified ubootwrite is
also there)
