BOB is a test rig comprised of the components of an Unfurl Fern. It was built by samw in feb-mar 2023.

• A mikrotik routerboard 5 port router/access point
• 4x Unfurl Nodes
• 2x Beaglebones
  • One is the standard unfurl beaglebone
  • the second “beaglebob” is used for bob-specific stuff, like running a separate mqtt server and connecting to nodes via esp programmers over usb.
• A length of LED strip
• 2x espprog usb programmers
  • Can be connected to any of the nodes for flashing/serial debug
  • connected to beaglebob via a USB hub
• 1x 24v PSU for the nodes and router
• 1x 12v PSU for the LED strip

There is a BAN (BOB Area Network) routed by the MikroTik. This includes a BOB-specific wifi network, the idea being to keep BOB-stuff entirely separate and independent of any other airgiants infra, meaning that a) BOB doesn't interfere with any real kit and b) BOB is self-contained and can be taken on holiday to places. The MikroTik

• MikroTik - 20.20.23.1
• BeagleBone - 10.20.23.10
• BeagleBOB - 10.20.23.20
• Nodes - Dynamic, somewhere in the DHCP range (10.20.23.100-200)
