Agent is a piece of software that runs on the CPE or IoT device and is responsable for connecting it to the Controller (Oktopus) through USP. To simulate the behavior of a real device we can use OBUSPA encapsulated in a docker container for better portability.
OBUSPA based agent simulator utility packaged by Oktopus depends on initial configuration files available at /agent folder. You can edit those files to simulate more complex environments. Run the commands below inside /agent folder, each tab shows how to connect to a different MTP:
docker run -d -v $(pwd)/agent/oktopus-mqtt-obuspa.txt:/obuspa/oktopus-mqtt-obuspa.txt --network host --name obuspa-mqtt oktopusp/obuspa:latest obuspa -r /obuspa/oktopus-mqtt-obuspa.txt -p -v4 -i lo
docker run -d -v $(pwd)/agent/oktopus-websockets-obuspa.txt:/obuspa/oktopus-websockets-obuspa.txt --network host --name obuspa-websockets oktopusp/obuspa:latest obuspa -r /obuspa/oktopus-websockets-obuspa.txt -p -v4 -i lo
docker run -d -v $(pwd)/agent/oktopus-stomp-obuspa.txt:/obuspa/oktopus-stomp-obuspa.txt --network host --name obuspa-stomp oktopusp/obuspa:latest obuspa -r /obuspa/oktopus-stomp-obuspa.txt -p -v4 -i lo
Flags:
--help (-h) Displays this help
--log (-l) Sets the destination for debug logging. Default is 'stdout'. Can also use 'syslog' or a filename
--dbfile (-f) Sets the path of the file to store the database in (default=/usr/local/var/obuspa/usp.db)
--verbose (-v) Sets the debug verbosity log level: 0=Off, 1=Error(default), 2=Warning, 3=Info
--prototrace (-p) Enables trace logging of the USP protocol messages
--cli (-s) Sets the path of the Unix domain socket file used for CLI communications
--authcert (-a) Sets the path of the PEM formatted file containing a client certificate and private key to authenticate this device with
--truststore (-t) Sets the path of the PEM formatted file containing trust store certificates
--resetfile (-r) Sets the path of the text file containing factory reset parameters
--interface (-i) Sets the name of the networking interface to use for USP communication
--meminfo (-m) Collects and prints information useful to debugging memory leaks
--register (-R) Sets the top-level data model objects to register when acting as a USP Service
--error (-e) Enables printing of the callstack whenever an error is detected
--command (-c) Sends a CLI command to the running USP Agent and prints the response
To get a list of all CLI commands use '-c help'
--plugin (-x) Specifies the path to a shared object vendor layer plug-in
