  • activate driver for AT86RF231 in the device tree overlay in /boot/config.txt
    • add dtoverlay=at86rf233, interrupt=25, reset=27, sleep=17
  • look with dmesg for "Detected at86rf231 chip version 2"
  • install wpan-tools via apt, the interface wpan0 should show up afterwards
    • sudo iwpan dev wpan0 set pan_id 0x23 to set PanID
    • sudo iwpan phy phy0 set channel 0 26 to set Channel
    • sudo ip link add link wpan0 name lowpan0 type lowpan to add 6LoWPAN interface onto wpan0
