Dificulties using AWS IoT Core

LPWAN Industrial Gateways / Concentrators
1

Dear Coleagues,

I am trying to use AWS IoT Core, and for the moment it is not working.
Gateway is connected to the AWS, in Basics Station mode, but no JOIN from device!

My setup:

RAK7268V2, firmware 2.3.1
RAK3172, firmware 4.2.4
AU915, band 6 on device
Sub-band 2 on AWS and Mask 2 on device
Private network mode (PNM = 0)
JN1DL = 5000
JN2DL = 6000
RX1DL = 1000
RX2DL = 2000
Gateway is configured using LNS certificates and AWS endpoint. I am not using CUPS.

I can see uploads from other devices (not mine) in the gateway packet capture log, but nothing from my device.

Same gateway and same device worked well when connected to Datacake LNS. In this case using packet forwarder mode.

Any idea about what is missing or a tutorial for the various parameters on AWS? Like LoRaWAN version, region parameters, etc…

Thank you

Hello,

after many tests… I could finally find the problem.
The PNM in the device must be 1. Changing it the JOIN was imediatelly accepted and uplinks are working.

PNM is confusing!
Private network, gateway connected to Datacake → PNM = 0, works
Public network, using the Netmore public gateways → PNM = 1, works
Private network, gateway connected to AWS IoT Core → PNM = 0, does not work

Even selecting Private Network on AWS, the PNM must be 1 to work.
