.. zephyr:code-sample:: wpan-usb :name: 802.15.4 USB :relevant-api: ieee802154 _usb_device_core_api Implement a device that exposes an IEEE 802.15.4 radio over USB. Overview ******** This application exports ieee802154 radio over USB to be used in other OSes such as Linux. For Linux, the ieee802154 stack would be implemented using the Linux SoftMAC driver. This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/net/wpanusb` in the Zephyr project tree. Requirements ************ - a Zephyr board with supported 802.15.4 radio and supported USB driver (such as the :ref:`nrf52840dk_nrf52840` or :ref:`samr21_xpro`) connected via USB to a Linux host - wpanusb Linux kernel driver (in the process of being open sourced) - wpan-tools (available for all Linux distributions) Building and Running ******************** There are configuration files for various setups in the ``samples/net/wpanusb`` directory: - :file:`prj.conf` This is the standard default config. This can be used by itself for hardware which has native 802.15.4 support. - :file:`overlay-cc2520.conf` This overlay config enables support for CC2520 Build the wpanusb sample for a board: .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/net/wpanusb :board: :gen-args: -DEXTRA_CONF_FILE= :goals: build :compact: Example building for the Nordic nRF52840 Development Kit: .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/net/wpanusb :board: nrf52840dk/nrf52840 :goals: build :compact: When connected to Linux with wpanusb kernel driver, it is recognized as: .. code-block:: console ...
