Raylynn Knight b515ad10a6 realtek: add support for ZyXEL GS1900-24E 
The ZyXEL GS1900-24E is a 24 port gigabit switch similar to other GS1900
switches.

Specifications
--------------
* Device:    ZyXEL GS1900-24E
* SoC:       Realtek RTL8382M 500 MHz MIPS 4KEc
* Flash:     16 MiB Macronix MX25L12835F
* RAM:       128 MiB DDR2 SDRAM Nanya NT5TU128M8GE
* Ethernet:  24x 10/100/1000 Mbps
* LEDs:      1 PWR LED (green, not configurable)
             1 SYS LED (green, configurable)
             24 ethernet port link/activity LEDs (green, SoC controlled)
* Buttons:   1 "RESET" button on front panel
* Switch:    1 Power switch on rear of device
* Power      120-240V AC C13
* UART:      1 serial header (JP2) with populated standard pin connector on
             the left side of the PCB.
             Pinout (front to back):
             + Pin 1 - VCC marked with white dot
             + Pin 2 - RX
             + Pin 3 - TX
             + PIn 4 - GND

Serial connection parameters:  115200 8N1.

Installation
------------

OEM upgrade method:

* Log in to OEM management web interface
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware
* Select the HTTP radio button
* Select the Active radio button
* Use the browse button to locate the
realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24e-initramfs-kernel.bin
file and select open so File Path is updated with filename.
* Select the Apply button. Screen will display "Prepare
for firmware upgrade ...".
*Wait until screen shows "Do you really want to reboot?"
then select the OK button
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
   > sysupgrade -n /tmp/realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24e-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   it may be necessary to restart the network (/etc/init.d/network restart) on
   the running initramfs image.

U-Boot TFTP method:

* Configure your client with a static 192.168.1.x IP (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
* Set up a TFTP server on your client and make it serve the initramfs image.
* Connect serial, power up the switch, interrupt U-boot by hitting the
  space bar, and enable the network:
   > rtk network on
* Since the GS1900-24E is a dual-partition device, you want to keep the OEM
  firmware on the backup partition for the time being. OpenWrt can only boot
  from the first partition anyway (hardcoded in the DTS). To make sure we are
  manipulating the first partition, issue the following commands:
  > setsys bootpartition 0
  > savesys
* Download the image onto the device and boot from it:
   > tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.10:openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24e-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
   > sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24e-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   it may be necessary to restart the network (/etc/init.d/network restart) on
   the running initramfs image.

README.md

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

Related Repositories

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
