The following adds the Aerohive BR200-WP router to OpenWrt under the mpc85xx/p1010 subtarget. Hardware: - SoC: Freescale P1011 - NOR: Intel JS28F512M29EWH 64MB - Memory: 2x Nanya NT5TU64M16GG-AC 128MB (Total of 256MB) - 2.4GHz WiFi: Atheros AR9390-AL1A - Eth1: Atheros AR8035-A PoE - 2x LEDs - 1x Button - PoE PSE Flashing: 1. Hook into UART (9600 baud) and enter U-Boot. You may need to enter a password of administrator or AhNf?d@ta06 if prompted. 2. Once in U-Boot, tftp boot the initramfs image: dhcp; setenv serverip 192.168.1.3; tftpboot 0x2004000 openwrt-mpc85xx-p1010-aerohive_br200-wp-initramfs-kernel.bin; bootm 0x2004000; 3. Once booted, scp over the sysupgrade file and sysupgrade the device to flash LEDE to the NOR. Note: MAC assigns are taken from stock firmware: Name MAC addr Mode State Chan(Width) VLAN Radio Hive SSID -------- -------------- -------- ----- ----------- ---- ---------- ---------- --------- Mgt0 08ea:44XX:XXc0 - U - 1 - hive0 - Eth0 08ea:44XX:XXc0 wan U - - - - - Eth1 08ea:44XX:XXc2 access D - - - hive0 - Eth2 08ea:44XX:XXc3 access D - - - hive0 - Eth3 08ea:44XX:XXc4 access D - - - hive0 - Eth4 08ea:44XX:XXc5 access D - - - hive0 - Wifi0 08ea:44XX:XXd0 access U 1(20MHz) - radio_ng0 - - Wifi0.1 08ea:44XX:XXd4 access D 1(20MHz) - radio_ng0 hive0 - Note2: PoE PSE could be managed with `realtek-poe` package.

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Download
Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.
If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.
An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -a
to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -a
to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfig
to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
make
to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.
