Loraserver 2.x json format broken in r196

LPWAN Industrial Gateways / Concentrators RAK7258

Hi Rak,

Thank you for introducing the new json format of lora gateway bridge.

However, it breaks the old json format in firmware build 1.1.0058_Release r196. I can not use old loraserver 2.x format any more.

Hardware: RAK7258 LTE 433.

Here is how to reproduce this issue:

  1. Load V1.1.0057_Release_r195 to RAK7258
  2. Configure the LoRa Packet Forwarder’s Server Address to 127.0.0.1
  3. Configure the LoRa Gateway MQTT Bridge’s LoRa Network Server Type to loraserver 2.x
  4. Subscribe to the same MQTT Broker and check the stats, rx message. As it is expected, it is loraserver 2.x format
  5. Keep settings and upgrade firmware to V1.1.0058_Release_r196
  6. check the mqtt stats and rx message again, You can see it is now chaneged to loraserver 3.x (JSON-V3) format. However, I expect no change on the format as I kept settings while upgrading.

Expected:
I should be able to freely choose loraserver 2.x or loraserver 3.x (JSON-V3) format.

Cheers,
Paul
