qualcommax: ipq60xx: add TP-Link EAP625-Outdoor HD v1 support
TP-Link EAP625-Outdoor HD is a 802.11ax AP claiming AX1800 support.
It is wall or pole mountable, and rated for outdoor use. It can only
be powered via PoE.
Hardware-wise, it is very similar to the older EAP610-Outdoor model.
Software-wise, I couldn't find a difference other than the board
data files, and device name. For this reason, the majority of the
devicetree from the EAP610-Outdoor is reused.
This device currently comes in a "v1", and "v1.6" version. The
"support-list" of the vendor firmware does not have a distinction
between these versions. This commit was tested on a 'V1.6" device.
Specifications:
---------------
* CPU: Qualcomm IPQ6018 Quad core Cortex-A53
* RAM: 512 MB
* Storage: 128MB NAND
* Ethernet:
* Gigabit RJ45 port with PoE input
* WLAN:
* 2.4GHz/5GHz
* LEDs:
* Multi-color System LED (Green/Amber)
* Buttons:
* 1x Reset
* UART: 4-pin unpopulated header
* 1.8 V level, Pinout 1 - TX, 2 - RX, 3 - GND, 4 - 1.8V
Installation:
=============
Web UI method
-------------
Set up the device using the vendor's web UI. After that go to
Management->SSH and enable the "SSH Login" checkbox. Select "Save".
The connect to the machine via SSH:
ssh -o hostkeyalgorithms=ssh-rsa <ip_of_device>
Disable signature verification:
cliclientd stopcs
Rename the "-web-ui-factory" image to something less than 63
characters, maintaining the ".bin" suffix.
* Go to System -> Firmware Update.
* Under "New Firmware File", click "Browse" and select the image
* Select "Update" and confirm by clicking "OK".
If the update fails, the web UI should show an error message.
Otherwise, the device should reboot into OpenWRT.
NOTE: If ssh continues to complain that "no matching host key type
found. Their offer: ssh-rsa,ssh-dss" it likely means that yor distro
has completely disabled deprecated siphers in ssh. In that case, run
the ssh command from a docker container of an older distro.
TFTP method
-----------
To flash via tftp, first place the initramfs image on the TFTP server.
setenv serverip <ip of tftp server>
setenv ipaddr <ip in same subnet as tftp server>
tftpboot tplink_eap625-outdoor-hd-v1-initramfs-uImage.itb
bootm
This should boot OpenWRT. Once booted, flash the sysupgrade.bin image
using either luci or the commandline.
