General Options
gs.update-version-info-delay
Gateways are disconnected from The Things Stack when settings affecting the connection with the Gateway Server change. You can configure how often the gateway gets fetched from the entity registry.
gs.fetch-gateway-interval: Update gateway fetching intervalgs.fetch-gateway-jitter: Jitter to apply to the update interval to randomize intervals
Forwarding Options
The Gateway Server forwards traffic to upstream hosts based on the gs.forward parameter.
gs.forward: Forward the DevAddr prefixes to the specified hosts. This parameter accepts a list of strings in the format"target=dev-addr-prefix1 target=dev-addr-prefix2"
Enter your NetID to view recommended forwarding settings:
“cluster=00000000/0”: Forward all traffic to the Network Server in the cluster (default)“cluster=": Forward only traffic for your NetID to the Network Server“cluster=00000000/6 cluster=": Forward only traffic for the experimental NetIDs000000and000001, and your NetID to the Network Server in the cluster“cluster=00000000/6 cluster= packetbroker=00000000/0”: Forward only traffic for the experimental NetIDs000000and000001, and your NetID to the Network Server in the cluster, and all traffic to Packet Broker (see configuration)
Location Update Options
The Gateway Server can be configured to update the location of gateway antennas from incoming status messages.
gs.update-gateway-location-debounce-time: Debounce time for gateway location updates from status messages.
Security Options
gs.require-registered-gateways: Require the gateways to be registered in the Identity Servergs.basic-station.allow-unauthenticated: Allow unauthenticated Basic Station connections. This is set tofalseby default. Set to disable auth check for testing.
Basic Station Options
The Gateway Server supports connection of gateways using the Basic Station protocol.
gs.basic-station.listen: Address for the Basic Station frontend to listen ongs.basic-station.listen-tls: Address for the Basic Station frontend to listen on (with TLS)gs.basic-station.use-traffic-tls-address: Use WSS for the traffic address regardless of the TLS setting
The frequency plan to use for unregistered gateways can be set using gs.basic-station.fallback-frequency-plan-id. Note that gs.require-registered-gateways must be set to false for this to take effect.
gs.basic-station.fallback-frequency-plan-id: Fallback frequency plan ID for non-registered gateways
The Things Stack provides RTT recording for LoRa Basics™ Station gateways.
gs.basic-station.max-valid-round-trip-delay: Defines the maximum valid round trip delay to qualify for RTT calculations
The Things Stack offers a WebSocket Ping-Pong support for LoRa Basics™ Station gateways. The Gateway Servers sends pings to LoRa Basics™ Station gateway, and the gateway responds with a pong. The gateway that stops sending pongs to server pings gets disconnected by the Gateway Server after a configurable time period. This does not apply for gateways that don’t support pongs.
gs.basic-station.missed-pong-threshold: Defines a number of consecutive missed pongs before disconnection. This value is used only if the gateway sends at least one pong.gs.basic-station.time-sync-interval: Interval to send time transfer messagesgs.basic-station.ws-ping-interval: Interval to send WS ping messages
MQTT Options
The Gateway Server exposes an MQTT server for connecting gateways via MQTT.
gs.mqtt.listen: Address for the MQTT frontend to listen ongs.mqtt.listen-tls: Address for the MQTTS frontend to listen ongs.mqtt.public-address: Public address of the MQTT frontendgs.mqtt.public-tls-address: Public address of the MQTTs frontend
MQTT V2 Options
The Gateway Server exposes an second MQTT server for connecting gateways that use the V2 MQTT format.
gs.mqtt-v2.listen: Address for the MQTT frontend to listen ongs.mqtt-v2.listen-tls: Address for the MQTTS frontend to listen ongs.mqtt-v2.public-address: Public address of the MQTT frontendgs.mqtt-v2.public-tls-address: Public address of the MQTTs frontend
UDP Options
The Gateway Server supports the connection of gateways using the Semtech UDP protocol.
gs.udp.listeners: Listen addresses with (optional) fallback frequency plan ID for non-registered gateways. This parameter accepts as string in the formatlisten-address=frequency-plan-idgs.udp.schedule-late-time: Time in advance to send downlink to the gateway when scheduling late
Options are available to configure connection behavior of UDP gateways.
gs.udp.connection-expires: Time after which a connection of a gateway expiresgs.udp.connection-error-expires: Time after which a connection error of a gateway expiresgs.udp.downlink-path-expires: Time after which a downlink path to a gateway expiresgs.udp.addr-change-block: Time to block traffic when a gateway’s address changes
Using the packet-buffer and packet-handlers options, the throughput of UDP packets can be configured.
gs.udp.packet-buffer: Buffer size of unhandled packetsgs.udp.packet-handlers: Number of concurrent packet handlers
Statistics Options
Specify options for gateway connection statistics:
gs.update-connection-stats-debounce-time: Time before repeated refresh of the gateway connection statsgs.connection-stats-disconnect-ttl: TTL of the gateway connection stats after disconnecting
UDP Rate Limiting Options
The Gateway Server supports rate limiting traffic for gateways that are using the Semtech UDP protocol.
gs.udp.rate-limiting.enable: Enable rate limiting for gatewaysgs.udp.rate-limiting.messages: Number of past messages to check timestamp forgs.udp.rate-limiting.threshold: Filter packet if timestamp is not newer than the older timestamps of the previous messages by this threshold
Packet Broker Options
gs.packetbroker.online-ttl-margin: Time to extend the online status before it expiresgs.packetbroker.update-gateway-interval: Update gateway intervalgs.packetbroker.update-gateway-jitter: Jitter (fraction) to apply to the update interval to randomize intervals
