1# OpenThread CLI - CoAPS Example
2
3The OpenThread CoAPS APIs may be invoked via the OpenThread CLI.
4
5## Quick Start
6
7### Form Network
8
9Form a network with at least two devices.
10
11### Configure DTLS ciphersuite.
12
13CoAPS uses DTLS to establish a secure, end-to-end connection.
14
15This example supports two ciphersuites:
16
17- TLS_PSK_WITH_AES_128_CCM_8
18
19  ```bash
20  > coaps psk <your-psk> <your-psk-id>
21  Done
22  ```
23
24- TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CCM_8
25  ```bash
26  > coaps x509
27  Done
28  ```
29  The X.509 certificate stored in `core/cli/x509_cert_key.hpp`.
30
31### Node 1
32
33On node 1, setup CoAPS server with resource `test-resource`.
34
35```bash
36> coaps start
37Done
38> coaps resource test-resource
39Done
40```
41
42### Node 2
43
44```bash
45> coaps start
46Done
47> coaps connect <peer-ip6-address>
48Done
49coaps connected
50> coaps get test-resource
51Done
52coaps response from fdde:ad00:beef:0:9903:14b:27e0:5744 with payload: 68656c6c6f576f726c6400
53> coaps put test-resource con payload
54Done
55coaps response from fdde:ad00:beef:0:9903:14b:27e0:5744
56```
57
58### Result
59
60On node 1, you should see output similar to below:
61
62```bash
63coaps request from fdde:ad00:beef:0:9e68:576f:714c:f395 GET
64coaps response sent
65coaps request from fdde:ad00:beef:0:9e68:576f:714c:f395 PUT with payload: 7061796c6f6164
66coaps response sent
67```
68
69## Generate Elliptic Curve Private Key and X.509 Certificate
70
71### EC Private Key
72
73```bash
74> openssl ecparam -genkey -name prime256v1 -noout -out ec_private.pem
75```
76
77### X.509 Certificate
78
79```bash
80> openssl req -x509 -new -key ec_private.pem -out x509_cert.pem -days 30
81```

217
218### resource \[uri-path\]
219

225> coaps resource
226test-resource

238
239### start \[check-peer-cert\|max-conn-attempts\]
240
241Starts the application coaps service.
242
243The `check-peer-cert` parameter determines if the peer-certificate check is enabled (default) or disabled. The `max-conn-attempts` parameter sets the maximum number of allowed attempts, successful or failed, to connect to the CoAP Secure server. The default value of this parameter is 0, which means that there is no limit to the number of attempts. The `check-peer-cert` and `max-conn-attempts` parameters work together in the following combinations, even though you can only specify one argument:
244
245- No argument specified: Defaults are used.
246- Setting `check-peer-cert` to `true`: Has the same effect as as omitting the argument, which is that the `check-peer-cert` value is `true`, and the `max-conn-attempts` value is 0.
247- Setting `check-peer-cert` to `false`: `check-peer-cert` value is `false`, and the `max-conn-attempts` value is `0`.
248- Specifying a number: `check-peer-cert` is `true`, and the `max-conn-attempts` value is the number specified in the argument.
249
250```bash
251> coaps start
252Done
253```
254
255### stop
256
257Stops the application coaps service.

263
264### isconnected
265
266Indicates whether or not the CoAP secure service is connected.
267
268```bash
269> coaps isconnected
270yes
271Done
272```
273
274### isconnactive
275
276Indicates whether or not the CoAP secure service connection is active (already connected or establishing a connection).
277
278```bash
279> coaps isconnactive
280yes
281Done

283
284### isclosed
