* ath79: consolidate Netgear EX7300 series imagesWenli Looi2023-01-253-2/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change consolidates Netgear EX7300 series devices into two images corresponding to devices that share the same manufacturer firmware image. Similar to the manufacturer firmware, the actual device model is detected at runtime. The logic is taken from the netgear GPL dumps in a file called generate_board_conf.sh.

* ath79: add support for Fortinet FAP-221-BMichael Pratt2023-01-064-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FCC ID: U2M-CAP4100AG Fortinet FAP-221-B is an indoor access point with 1 Gb ethernet port, dual-band wireless, internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+ Hardware and board design from Senao **Specification:** - AR9344 SOC 2G 2x2, 5G 2x2, 25 MHz CLK - AR9382 WLAN 2G 2x2 PCIe, 40 MHz CLK - AR8035-A PHY RGMII, PoE+ IN, 25 MHz CLK - 16 MB FLASH MX25L12845EMI-10G - 2x 32 MB RAM W9725G6JB-25 - UART at J11 populated, 9600 baud - 6 LEDs, 1 button power, ethernet, wlan, reset Note: ethernet LEDs are not enabled because a new netifd hotplug is required in order to operate like OEM. Board has 1 amber and 1 green for each of the 3 case viewports. **MAC addresses:** 1 MAC Address in flash at end of uboot ASCII encoded, no delimiters Labeled as "MAC Address" on case OEM firmware sets offsets 1 and 8 for wlan eth0 *:1e uboot 0x3ff80 phy0 *:1f uboot 0x3ff80 +1 phy1 *:26 uboot 0x3ff80 +8 **Serial Access:** Pinout: (arrow) VCC GND RX TX Pins are populated with a header and traces not blocked. Bootloader is set to 9600 baud, 8 data, 1 stop. **Console Access:** Bootloader: Interrupt boot with Ctrl+C Press "k" and enter password "1" OR Hold reset button for 5 sec during power on Interrupt the TFTP transfer with Ctrl+C to print commands available, enter "help" OEM: default username is "admin", password blank telnet is available at default address 192.168.1.2 serial is available with baud 9600 to print commands available, enter "help" or tab-tab (busybox list of commands) **Installation:** Use factory.bin with OEM upgrade procedures OR Use initramfs.bin with uboot TFTP commands. Then perform a sysupgrade with sysupgrade.bin **TFTP Recovery:** Using serial console, load initramfs.bin using TFTP to boot openwrt without touching the flash. TFTP is not reliable due to bugged bootloader, set MTU to 600 and try many times. If your TFTP server supports setting block size, higher block size is better. Splitting the file into 1 MB parts may be necessary example: $ tftpboot 0x80100000 image1.bin $ tftpboot 0x80200000 image2.bin $ tftpboot 0x80300000 image3.bin $ tftpboot 0x80400000 image4.bin $ tftpboot 0x80500000 image5.bin $ tftpboot 0x80600000 image6.bin $ bootm 0x80100000 **Return to OEM:** The best way to return to OEM firmware is to have a copy of the MTD partitions before flashing Openwrt. Backup copies should be made of partitions "fwconcat0", "loader", and "fwconcat1" which together is the same flash range as OEM's "rootfs" and "uimage" by loading an initramfs.bin and using LuCI to download the mtdblocks. It is also possible to extract from the OEM firmware upgrade image by splitting it up in parts of lengths that correspond to the partitions in openwrt and write them to flash, after gzip decompression. After writing to the firmware partitions, erase the "reserved" partition and reboot. **OEM firmware image format:** Images from Fortinet for this device ending with the suffix .out are actually a .gz file The gzip metadata stores the original filename before compression, which is a special string used to verify the image during OEM upgrade. After gzip decompression, the resulting file is an exact copy of the MTD partitions "rootfs" and "uimage" combined in the same order and size that they appear in /proc/mtd and as they are on flash. OEM upgrade is performed by a customized busybox with the command "upgrade". Another binary, "restore" is a wrapper for busybox's "tftp" and "upgrade". Signed-off-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>
* ath79: allow skipping hash for Senao sysupgradeMichael Pratt2023-01-062-14/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some vendors of Senao boards have a similar flash layout situation that causes the need to split the firmware partition and use the lzma-loader, but do not store checksums of the partitions or otherwise do not even have a uboot environment partition. This adds simple shell logic to skip that part. Also, simplify some lines and variable usage. Signed-off-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>

* ath79: add support for KuWFi C910Davide Fioravanti2022-12-172-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | KuWFi C910 is an 802.11n (300N) indoor router with LTE support. I can't find anywhere the OEM firmware. So if you want to restore the original firmware you must do a dump before the OpenWrt flash. According to the U-Boot, the board name is Iyunlink MINI_V2. Hardware -------- SoC: Qualcomm QCA9533 650/400/200/25/25 MHz (CPU/RAM/AHB/SPI/REF) RAM: 128 MB DDR2 16-bit CL3-4-4-10 (Nanya NT5TU64M16HG-AC) FLASH: 16 MB Winbond W25Q128 ETH: - 2x 100M LAN (QCA9533 internal AR8229 switch, eth0) - 1x 100M WAN (QCA9533 internal PHY, eth1) WIFI: - 2.4GHz: 1x QCA9533 2T2R (b/g/n) - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the power barrel side) LTE: - Quectel EC200T-EU (or -CN or -AU depending on markets) - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the sim slot side) BTN: - 1x Reset button LEDS: - 5x White leds (Power, Wifi, Wan, Lan1, Lan2) - 1x RGB led (Internet) UART: 115200-8-N-1 (Starting from lan ports in order: GND, RX, TX, VCC) Everything works correctly. MAC Addresses ------------- LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48 (art@0x1002) WAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:49 (art@0x1002 + 1) WIFI XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48 LABEL XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48 Installation ------------ Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 4 seconds. You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. (See notes) If done correctly you should see the first lan led glowing slowly and you should be able to enter the U-Boot web interface. Click on the second tab ("固件") and select the -factory.bin firmware then click "Update firmware". A screen "Update in progress" should appear. After few minutes the flash should be completed. This procedure can be used also to recover the router in case of soft brick. Backup the original firmware ---------------------------- The following steps are intended for a linux pc. However using the right software this guide should also work for Windows and MacOS. 1) Install a tftp server on your pc. For example tftpd-hpa. 2) Create two empty files in your tftp folder called: kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin 3) Give global write permissions to these files: chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin 4) Start a netcat session on your pc with this command: nc -u -p 6666 192.168.1.1 6666 5) Set the static address on your pc: 192.168.1.2. Connect the router to your pc. 6) Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 8-9 seconds. You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. If you press the reset button for too many seconds it will continue the normal boot, so you have to restart the router. (See notes) 7) If done correctly you should see the U-Boot network console and you should see the following lines on the netcat session: Version and build date: U-Boot 1.1.4-55f1bca8-dirty, 2020-05-07 Modification by: Piotr Dymacz <piotr@dymacz.pl> https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod u-boot> 8) Start the transfer of the whole NOR: tftpput 0x9f000000 0x1000000 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin 9) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred): TFTP transfer complete! Bytes transferred: 16777216 (0x1000000) 10) Repeat the same transfer for the firmware: tftpput 0x9f050000 0xfa0000 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin 11) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred): TFTP transfer complete! Bytes transferred: 16384000 (0xfa0000) 12) Now you have the backup for the whole nor and for the firmware partition. If you want to restore the OEM firmware from OpenWrt you have to flash the kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin from the U-Boot web interface. WARNING: Don't use the kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin file. This file is only useful if you manage to hard brick the router or you damage the art partition (ask on the forum) Notes ----- This router (or at least my unit) has the pepe2k's U-Boot. It's a modded U-Boot version with a lot of cool features. You can read more here: https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod With this version of U-Boot, pushing the reset button while turning on the router starts different tools: - 3-5 seconds: U-Boot web interface that can be used to replace the firmware, the art or the U-Boot itself - 5-7 seconds: U-Boot uart console - 7-10 seconds: U-Boot network console - 11+ seconds: Normal boot The LTE modem can be used in cdc_ether (ECM) or RNDIS mode. The default mode is ECM and in this commit only the ECM software is included. In order to set RNDIS mode you must use this AT command: AT+QCFG="usbnet",3 In order to use again the ECM mode you must use this AT command: AT+QCFG="usbnet",1 Look for "Quectel_EC200T_Linux_USB_Driver_User_Guide_V1.0.pdf" for other AT commands Signed-off-by: Davide Fioravanti <pantanastyle@gmail.com>

Interrupt uboot with any key pressed rapidly execute `run failsafe_boot` OR `bootm 0x9fd70000` wait a minute connect to ethernet and navigate to "192.168.1.1/index.htm" Select the factory.bin image and upload wait about 3 minutes **Return to OEM:** If you have a serial cable, see Serial Failsafe instructions otherwise, uboot-env can be used to make uboot load the failsafe image ssh into openwrt and run `fw_setenv rootfs_checksum 0` reboot, wait 3 minutes connect to ethernet and navigate to 192.168.1.1/index.htm select OEM firmware image from Engenius and click upgrade **TFTP recovery:** Requires serial console, reset button does nothing rename initramfs to 'vmlinux-art-ramdisk' make available on TFTP server at 192.168.1.101 power board, interrupt boot execute tftpboot and bootm 0x81000000 NOTE: TFTP is not reliable due to bugged bootloader set MTU to 600 and try many times if your TFTP server supports setting block size higher block size is better. **Format of OEM firmware image:** The OEM software of EAP1750H is a heavily modified version of Openwrt Kamikaze. One of the many modifications is to the sysupgrade program. Image verification is performed simply by the successful ungzip and untar of the supplied file and name check and header verification of the resulting contents. To form a factory.bin that is accepted by OEM Openwrt build, the kernel and rootfs must have specific names... openwrt-ar71xx-generic-eap1750h-uImage-lzma.bin openwrt-ar71xx-generic-eap1750h-root.squashfs and begin with the respective headers (uImage, squashfs). Then the files must be tarballed and gzipped. The resulting binary is actually a tar.gz file in disguise. This can be verified by using binwalk on the OEM firmware images, ungzipping then untaring. Newer EnGenius software requires more checks but their script includes a way to skip them, otherwise the tar must include a text file with the version and md5sums in a deprecated format. The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh. OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs. Note on PLL-data cells: The default PLL register values will not work because of the external AR8035 switch between the SOC and the ethernet port. For QCA955x series, the PLL registers for eth0 and eth1 can be see in the DTSI as 0x28 and 0x48 respectively. Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot for each link speed after attempting tftpboot or another network action using that link speed with `md 0x18050028 1` and `md 0x18050048 1`. The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`. Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0 do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side. This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver since Linux 5.1 and 5.3 Signed-off-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>

Hardware highligts: - CPU: Atheros AR7240 SoC at 400 MHz - RAM: 64MB DDR2 - Flash: 16MB SPI-NOR - Wi-Fi: AR9285 built-in 2.4GHz 1x1 radio - Ethernet: single Fast Ethernet port inside the electrical enclosure, coupled with internal LSA connector for direct wiring, four external Fast Ethernet ports on the lower side of the device. - PoE: 802.3af PD input inside the electrical box. 802.3af PSE output on the LAN4 port, capable of sourcing class 0 or class 2 devices, depending on power supply capacity. - External 8P8C pass-through connectors on the back and right side of the device - Standalone 48V power input on the side, through 2/1mm micro DC barrel jack Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal JP1 header. Pinout: ---------- JP1 |5|4|3|2|1| ---------- Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking. 1 - RX 2 - n/c 3 - VCC (3.3V) 4 - GND 5 - TX Installation: There are two methods of installation: - Using serial console [1] - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single T10 screw, but with much less manual steps, and is generally recommended, being safer. - Using stock firmware root shell exploit, SSH and TFTP [2]. Does not work on some rare versions of stock firmware. A more involved, and requires installing `mkenvimage` from u-boot-tools package if you choose to rebuild your own environment, but can be used without disassembly or removal from installation point, if you have the credentials. If for some reason, size of your sysupgrade image exceeds 13312kB, proceed with method [1]. For official images this is not likely to happen ever. [1] Using serial console: 0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot. 1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky, you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3. Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1. 2. Allow the board to boot. Press the reset button, so the board reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1. 3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and needs to be done only on initial installation. > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f040000" > saveenv 4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed: > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2 > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-initramfs-kernel.bin > bootm 0x81000000 5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7025_fw1_backup.bin 6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt shall boot from flash afterwards: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin [2] Using stock root shell: 0. Reset the device to factory defaullts. Power-on the device and after it boots, hold the reset button near Ethernet connectors for 5 seconds. 1. Connect the device to the network. It will acquire address over DHCP, so either find its address using list of DHCP leases by looking for label MAC address, or try finding it by scanning for SSH port: $ nmap 10.42.0.0/24 -p22 From now on, we assume your computer has address 10.42.0.1 and the device has address 10.42.0.254. 2. Set up a TFTP server on your computer. We assume that TFTP server root is at /srv/tftp. 3. Obtain root shell. Connect to the device over SSH. The SSHD ond the frmware is pretty ancient and requires enabling HMAC-MD5. $ ssh 10.42.0.254 \ -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \ -o StrictHostKeyCheking=no \ -o MACs=hmac-md5 Login. User is "super", password is "sp-admin". Now execute a hidden command: Ruckus It is case-sensitive. Copy and paste the following string, including quotes. There will be no output on the console for that. ";/bin/sh;" Hit "enter". The AP will respond with: grrrr OK Now execute another hidden command: !v54! At "What's your chow?" prompt just hit "enter". Congratulations, you should now be dropped to Busybox shell with root permissions. 4. Optional, but highly recommended: backup the flash contents before installation. At your PC ensure the device can write the firmware over TFTP: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin Locate partitions for primary and secondary firmware image. NEVER blindly copy over MTD nodes, because MTD indices change depending on the currently active firmware, and all partitions are writable! # grep rcks_wlan /proc/mtd Copy over both images using TFTP, this will be useful in case you'd like to return to stock FW in future. Make sure to backup both, as OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage! # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7025_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7025_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1 When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for storage. $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/ 5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here and not supported. Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The system will boot from the image it was not running from previously. Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-) 6. Prepare U-boot environment image. Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well. It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify it, rather then relying on defaults: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides. Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image! # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd Now, copy over the partition # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1 Store the stock environment in a safe place: $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/ Extract the values from the dump: $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 You should end up with something like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init baudrate=115200 ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),7168k(rcks_wlan.main),7168k(rcks_wlan.bkup),1280k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env) mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0 bootdelay=2 filesize=52e000 fileaddr=81000000 ethact=eth0 stdin=serial stdout=serial stderr=serial partition=nor0,0 mtddevnum=0 mtddevname=u-boot ipaddr=192.168.0.1 serverip=192.168.0.2 stderr=serial ethact=eth0 These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to mkenvimage. Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root: $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded: H4sICOLMEGMAA3UtYm9vdC1lbnYtbmV3LmJpbgDt0E1u00AUAGDfgm2XDUrTsUV/pTkFSxZoEk+o lcQJtlNaLsURwU4FikDiBN+3eDNvLL/3Zt5/+vFuud8Pq10dp3V3EV4e1uFDGBXTQeq+9HG1b/v9 NsdheP0Y5mV5U4Vw0Y1f1/3wesix/3pM/dO6v2jaZojX/bJpr6dtsUzHuktDjm//FHl4SnXdxfAS wmN4SWkMy+UYVqsx1PUYci52Q31I3dDHP5vU3ZUhXLX7LjxWN7eby+PVNNxsflfe3m8uu9Wm//xt m9rFLjXtv6fLzfEwm5fVfdhc1mlI6342Pytzldvn2dS1qfs49Tjvd3qFOm/Ta6yKdbPNffM9x5sq Ty805acL3Zfh5HTD1RDHJRT9WLGNfe6atJ2S/XE4y3LX/c6mSzZDs29P3edhmqXOz+1xF//s0y7H t3GL5nDqWT5Ui/Gii7Aoi7HQ81jrcHZY/dXkfLLiJwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD8 xy8jb4zOAAAEAA== 7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to TFTP root: $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp Now load both to the device over TFTP: # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1 Verify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP was completed: # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin And compare it against source images: $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Locate MTD partition of the primary image: # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes: # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd> Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern. # reboot -f After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24. Return to factory firmware: 1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device using 'sysupgrade -F' first. 2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable: fw_setenv bootcmd "" 3. Concatenate the firmware backups, if you took them during installation using method 2: $ cat ruckus_zf7025_fw1_backup.bin ruckus_zf7025_fw2_backup.bin > ruckus_zf7025_backup.bin 3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took before installation: # mtd write ruckus_zf7025_backup.bin /dev/mtd1 4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again. Quirks and known issues: - Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability. - The 2.4 GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU. - The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in OpenWrt by choice. It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped, to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely. - On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell, however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies. 1. Login to the rkscli 2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus" 3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem. 4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for "What's your chow?" prompt. 5. Busybox shell shall open.

(There does not appear to be a v1) Hardware (and FCC id) are identical to the Deco M4R v2 but the flash layout is ordered differently and the OEM firmware encrypts some config parameters (including the label mac address) in flash In order to set the encrypted mac address, the wlan's caldata node is removed from the DTS so the mac can be decrypted with the help of the uencrypt tool and patched into the wlan fw via hotplug Specifications: SoC: QCA9563-AL3A RAM: Zentel A3R1GE40JBF Wireless 2.4GHz: QCA9563-AL3A (main SoC) Wireless 5GHz: QCA9886 Ethernet Switch: QCA8337N-AL3C Flash: 16 MB SPI NOR UART serial access (115200N1) on board via solder pads: RX = TP1 pad TX = TP2 pad GND = C201 (pad nearest board edge) The device's bootloader and web gui will only accept images that were signed using TP-Link's RSA key, however a memory safety bug in the bootloader can be leveraged to install openwrt without accessing the serial console.

NOTE: DHCP is not enabled by default after flashing **TFTP recovery:** reset button has no function at boot time only possible with modified uboot environment, (see commit message for Watchguard AP300) **Return to OEM:** user should make backup of MTD partitions and write the backups back to mtd devices in order to revert to OEM reliably It may be possible to use sysupgrade with an OEM image as well... (not tested) **OEM upgrade info:** The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs. **Note on eth0 PLL-data:** The default Ethernet Configuration register values will not work because of the external AR8035 switch between the SOC and the ethernet port. For AR934x series, the PLL registers for eth0 can be see in the DTSI as 0x2c. Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot for each link speed after attempting tftpboot or another network action using that link speed with `md 0x1805002c 1`. The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`. Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0 do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side. This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver since Linux 5.1 and 5.3 **Note on WatchGuard Magic string:** The OEM upgrade script is a modified version of the generic Senao sysupgrade script which is used on EnGenius devices. On WatchGuard boards produced by Senao, images are verified using a md5sum checksum of the upgrade image concatenated with a magic string. this checksum is then appended to the end of the final image.

NOTE: DHCP is not enabled by default after flashing **TFTP recovery:** reset button has no function at boot time only possible with modified uboot environment, (see commit message for Watchguard AP300) **Return to OEM:** user should make backup of MTD partitions and write the backups back to mtd devices in order to revert to OEM reliably It may be possible to use sysupgrade with an OEM image as well... (not tested) **OEM upgrade info:** The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs. **Note on eth0 PLL-data:** The default Ethernet Configuration register values will not work because of the external AR8035 switch between the SOC and the ethernet port. For AR934x series, the PLL registers for eth0 can be see in the DTSI as 0x2c. Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot for each link speed after attempting tftpboot or another network action using that link speed with `md 0x1805002c 1`. The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`. Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0 do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side. This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver since Linux 5.1 and 5.3 **Note on WatchGuard Magic string:** The OEM upgrade script is a modified version of the generic Senao sysupgrade script which is used on EnGenius devices. On WatchGuard boards produced by Senao, images are verified using a md5sum checksum of the upgrade image concatenated with a magic string. this checksum is then appended to the end of the final image.

It is very similar to its bigger brother, ZoneFlex 7372. Hardware highligts: - CPU: Atheros AR9342 SoC at 533 MHz - RAM: 64MB DDR2 - Flash: 32MB SPI-NOR - Wi-Fi: AR9342 built-in dual-band 2x2 MIMO radio - Ethernet: single Gigabit Ethernet port through AR8035 gigabit PHY - PoE: input through Gigabit port - Standalone 12V/1A power input - USB: optional single USB 2.0 host port on the 7321-U variant. Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal H1 header. Pinout: H1 ---------- |1|x3|4|5| ---------- Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking. 1 - RX x - no pin 3 - VCC (3.3V) 4 - GND 5 - TX JTAG: Connector H5, unpopulated, similar to MIPS eJTAG, standard, but without the key in pin 12 and not every pin routed: ------- H5 |1 |2 | ------- |3 |4 | ------- |5 |6 | ------- |7 |8 | ------- |9 |10| ------- |11|12| ------- |13|14| ------- 3 - TDI 5 - TDO 7 - TMS 9 - TCK 2,4,6,8,10 - GND 14 - Vref 1,11,12,13 - Not connected Installation: There are two methods of installation: - Using serial console [1] - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single T10 screw, but with much less manual steps, and is generally recommended, being safer. - Using stock firmware root shell exploit, SSH and TFTP [2]. Does not work on some rare versions of stock firmware. A more involved, and requires installing `mkenvimage` from u-boot-tools package if you choose to rebuild your own environment, but can be used without disassembly or removal from installation point, if you have the credentials. If for some reason, size of your sysupgrade image exceeds 13312kB, proceed with method [1]. For official images this is not likely to happen ever. [1] Using serial console: 0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot. 1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky, you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3. Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1. 2. Allow the board to boot. Press the reset button, so the board reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1. 3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and needs to be done only on initial installation. > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f040000" > saveenv 4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed: > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2 > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-initramfs-kernel.bin > bootm 0x81000000 5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7321_fw1_backup.bin $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd5 > ruckus_zf7321_fw2_backup.bin 6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt shall boot from flash afterwards: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin [2] Using stock root shell: 0. Reset the device to factory defaullts. Power-on the device and after it boots, hold the reset button near Ethernet connectors for 5 seconds. 1. Connect the device to the network. It will acquire address over DHCP, so either find its address using list of DHCP leases by looking for label MAC address, or try finding it by scanning for SSH port: $ nmap 10.42.0.0/24 -p22 From now on, we assume your computer has address 10.42.0.1 and the device has address 10.42.0.254. 2. Set up a TFTP server on your computer. We assume that TFTP server root is at /srv/tftp. 3. Obtain root shell. Connect to the device over SSH. The SSHD ond the frmware is pretty ancient and requires enabling HMAC-MD5. $ ssh 10.42.0.254 \ -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \ -o StrictHostKeyCheking=no \ -o MACs=hmac-md5 Login. User is "super", password is "sp-admin". Now execute a hidden command: Ruckus It is case-sensitive. Copy and paste the following string, including quotes. There will be no output on the console for that. ";/bin/sh;" Hit "enter". The AP will respond with: grrrr OK Now execute another hidden command: !v54! At "What's your chow?" prompt just hit "enter". Congratulations, you should now be dropped to Busybox shell with root permissions. 4. Optional, but highly recommended: backup the flash contents before installation. At your PC ensure the device can write the firmware over TFTP: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7321_firmware{1,2}.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7321_firmware{1,2}.bin Locate partitions for primary and secondary firmware image. NEVER blindly copy over MTD nodes, because MTD indices change depending on the currently active firmware, and all partitions are writable! # grep rcks_wlan /proc/mtd Copy over both images using TFTP, this will be useful in case you'd like to return to stock FW in future. Make sure to backup both, as OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage! # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7321_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7321_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1 When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for storage. $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7321_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/ 5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here and not supported. Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The system will boot from the image it was not running from previously. Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-) 6. Prepare U-boot environment image. Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well. It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify it, rather then relying on defaults: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides. Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image! # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd Now, copy over the partition # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1 Store the stock environment in a safe place: $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/ Extract the values from the dump: $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 You should end up with something like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init baudrate=115200 ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),13312k(rcks_wlan.main),2048k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env),512k(Board Data),13312k(rcks_wlan.bkup) mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0 bootdelay=2 ethact=eth0 filesize=78a000 fileaddr=81000000 partition=nor0,0 mtddevnum=0 mtddevname=u-boot ipaddr=10.0.0.1 serverip=10.0.0.5 stdin=serial stdout=serial stderr=serial These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to mkenvimage. Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root: $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded: H4sIAAAAAAAAA+3QQW7TQBQAUF8EKRtQI6XtJDS0VJoN4gYcAE3iCbWS2MF2Sss1ORDYqVq6YMEB3rP0 Z/7Yf+aP3/56827VNP16X8Zx3E/Cw8dNuAqDYlxI7bcurpu6a3Y59v3jlzCbz5eLECbt8HbT9Y+HHLvv x9TdbbpJVVd9vOxWVX05TotVOpZt6nN8qilyf5fKso3hIYTb8JDSEFarIazXQyjLIeRc7PvykNq+iy+T 1F7PQzivmzbcLpYftmfH87G56Wz+/v18sT1r19vu649dqi/2qaqns0W4utmelalPm27I/lac5/p+OluO NZ+a1JaTz8M3/9hmtT0epmMjVdnF8djXLZx+TJl36TEuTlda93EYQrGpdrmrfuZ4fZPGHzjmp/vezMNJ MV6n6qumPm06C+MRZb6vj/v4Mk/7HJ+6LarDqXweLsZnXnS5vc9tdXheWRbd0GIdh/Uq7cakOfavsty2 z1nxGwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD+1x9eTkHLAAAEAA== 7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to TFTP root: $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp Now load both to the device over TFTP: # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1 Vverify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP was completed: # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin And compare it against source images: $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Locate MTD partition of the primary image: # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes: # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd> Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern. # reboot -f After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24. Return to factory firmware: 1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device using 'sysupgrade -F' first. 2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable: fw_setenv bootcmd "" 3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took before installation: mtd write ruckus_zf7321_fw1_backup.bin /dev/mtd1 mtd write ruckus_zf7321_fw2_backup.bin /dev/mtd5 4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again. Quirks and known issues: - Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability. - The 5GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU. - The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in OpenWrt by choice. It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped, to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely. - U-boot disables JTAG when starting. To re-enable it, you need to execute the following command before booting: mw.l 1804006c 40 And also you need to disable the reset button in device tree if you intend to debug Linux, because reset button on GPIO0 shares the TCK pin. - On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell, however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies. 1. Login to the rkscli 2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus" 3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem. 4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for "What's your chow?" prompt. 5. Busybox shell shall open.

This is critical step, and needs to be done only on initial installation. > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f040000" > saveenv 4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed: > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2 > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-initramfs-kernel.bin > bootm 0x81000000 5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7372_fw1_backup.bin $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd5 > ruckus_zf7372_fw2_backup.bin 6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt shall boot from flash afterwards: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin [2] Using stock root shell: 0. Reset the device to factory defaullts. Power-on the device and after it boots, hold the reset button near Ethernet connectors for 5 seconds. 1. Connect the device to the network. It will acquire address over DHCP, so either find its address using list of DHCP leases by looking for label MAC address, or try finding it by scanning for SSH port: $ nmap 10.42.0.0/24 -p22 From now on, we assume your computer has address 10.42.0.1 and the device has address 10.42.0.254. 2. Set up a TFTP server on your computer. We assume that TFTP server root is at /srv/tftp. 3. Obtain root shell. Connect to the device over SSH. The SSHD ond the frmware is pretty ancient and requires enabling HMAC-MD5. $ ssh 10.42.0.254 \ -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \ -o StrictHostKeyCheking=no \ -o MACs=hmac-md5 Login. User is "super", password is "sp-admin". Now execute a hidden command: Ruckus It is case-sensitive. Copy and paste the following string, including quotes. There will be no output on the console for that. ";/bin/sh;" Hit "enter". The AP will respond with: grrrr OK Now execute another hidden command: !v54! At "What's your chow?" prompt just hit "enter". Congratulations, you should now be dropped to Busybox shell with root permissions. 4. Optional, but highly recommended: backup the flash contents before installation. At your PC ensure the device can write the firmware over TFTP: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7372_firmware{1,2}.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7372_firmware{1,2}.bin Locate partitions for primary and secondary firmware image. NEVER blindly copy over MTD nodes, because MTD indices change depending on the currently active firmware, and all partitions are writable! # grep rcks_wlan /proc/mtd Copy over both images using TFTP, this will be useful in case you'd like to return to stock FW in future. Make sure to backup both, as OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage! # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7372_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7372_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1 When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for storage. $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7372_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/ 5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here and not supported. Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The system will boot from the image it was not running from previously. Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-) 6. Prepare U-boot environment image. Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well. It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify it, rather then relying on defaults: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides. Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image! # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd Now, copy over the partition # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1 Store the stock environment in a safe place: $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/ Extract the values from the dump: $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 You should end up with something like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init baudrate=115200 ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee bootdelay=2 mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0 mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),13312k(rcks_wlan.main),2048k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env),512k(Board Data),13312k(rcks_wlan.bkup) ethact=eth0 filesize=1000000 fileaddr=81000000 ipaddr=192.168.0.7 serverip=192.168.0.51 partition=nor0,0 mtddevnum=0 mtddevname=u-boot stdin=serial stdout=serial stderr=serial These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to mkenvimage. Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root: $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded: H4sIAAAAAAAAA+3QTW7TQBQAYB+AQ2TZSGk6Tpv+SbNBrNhyADSJHWolsYPtlJaDcAWOCXaqQhdIXOD7 Fm/ee+MZ+/nHu58fV03Tr/dFHNf9JDzdbcJVGGRjI7Vfurhu6q7ZlbHvnz+FWZ4vFyFM2mF30/XPhzJ2 X4+pe9h0k6qu+njRrar6YkyzVToWberL+HImK/uHVBRtDE8h3IenlIawWg1hvR5CUQyhLE/vLcpdeo6L bN8XVdHFumlDTO1NHsL5mI/9Q2r7Lv5J3uzeL5bX27Pj+XjRdJZfXuaL7Vm73nafv+1SPd+nqp7OFuHq dntWpD5tuqH6e+K8rB+ns+V45n2T2mLyYXjmH9estsfD9DTSuo/DErJNtSu76vswbjg5NU4D3752qsOp zu8W8/z6dh7mN1lXto9lWx3eNJd5Ng5V9VVTn2afnSYuysf6uI9/8rQv48s3Z93wn+o4XFWl3Vg0x/5N Vbbta5X9AgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAID/+Q2Z/B7cAAAEAA== 7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to TFTP root: $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp Now load both to the device over TFTP: # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1 Verify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP was completed: # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin And compare it against source images: $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Locate MTD partition of the primary image: # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes: # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd> Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern. # reboot -f After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24. Return to factory firmware: 1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device using 'sysupgrade -F' first. 2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable: fw_setenv bootcmd "" 3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took before installation: mtd write ruckus_zf7372_fw1_backup.bin /dev/mtd1 mtd write ruckus_zf7372_fw2_backup.bin /dev/mtd5 4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again. Quirks and known issues: - This is first device in ath79 target to support link state reporting on FE port attached trough the built-in switch. - Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability. The 5GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU. - The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in OpenWrt by choice. It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped, to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely. - U-boot disables JTAG when starting. To re-enable it, you need to execute the following command before booting: mw.l 1804006c 40 And also you need to disable the reset button in device tree if you intend to debug Linux, because reset button on GPIO0 shares the TCK pin. - On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell, however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies. 1. Login to the rkscli 2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus" 3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem. 4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for "What's your chow?" prompt. 5. Busybox shell shall open. Source: https://alephsecurity.com/vulns/aleph-2019014 - Stock firmware has beamforming functionality, known as BeamFlex, using active multi-segment antennas on both bands - controlled by RF analog switches, driven by a pair of 74LV164 shift registers. Shift registers used for each radio are connected to GPIO14 (clock) and GPIO15 of the respective chip. They are mapped as generic GPIOs in OpenWrt - in stock firmware, they were most likely handled directly by radio firmware, given the real-time nature of their control. Lack of this support in OpenWrt causes the antennas to behave as ordinary omnidirectional antennas, and does not affect throughput in normal conditions, but GPIOs are available to tinker with nonetheless.

The PLC here has no dedicated flash, thus the firmware file has to be uploaded to the PLC controller at every system start the PLC functionality is managed by the script /etc/init.d/plc_basic, a very basic script based on the the one from Netadair (netadair dot de) Installation: Asus windows recovery tool: have to have the latest Asus firmware flashed before continuing! install the Asus firmware restoration utility unplug the router, hold the reset button while powering it on release when the power LED flashes slowly specify a static IP on your computer: IP address: 192.168.1.75 Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 start the Asus firmware restoration utility, specify the factory image and press upload do NOT power off the device after OpenWrt has booted until the LED flashing TFTP Recovery method: have to have the latest Asus firmware flashed before continuing! set computer to a static ip, 192.168.1.75 connect computer to the LAN 1 port of the router hold the reset button while powering on the router for a few seconds send firmware image using a tftp client; i.e from linux: $ tftp tftp> binary tftp> connect 192.168.1.1 tftp> put factory.bin tftp> quit do NOT power off the device after OpenWrt has booted until the LED flashing Additional notes: the pairing buttons have to have pressed for at least half a second, it doesn't matter on which plc device (master or slave) first it is possible to pair the devices without the button-pairing requirement simply by pressing reset on the slave device. This will default to the firmware settings, which is also how the plc_basic script is setting up the master device, i.e. configuring it to firmware defaults the PL-E56P slave PLC has its dedicated 4MByte SPI, thus it is capable to store all firmware currently available. Note that some other slave devices are not guarantied to have the capacity for the newer ~1MByte firmware blobs! To have a good overlook about the slave device, here are its specs: same QCA7500 PLC controller, same w631gg6kb-15 128MB RAM, 25L3233F 4MB SPI-NOR and an AR8035-A 1000M-Transceiver Signed-off-by: Tamas Balogh <tamasbalogh@hotmail.com>
