The software implements a simple telnet interface accessible on standard port 23 (basic networking implemented through simple_network):

• Asks for (cleartext) password (to prevent accidental access)
• Offers a set of commands for toggling/reading GPIO connected to ATXctrl
• Allows setting console baudrate and saving it to non-volatile storage
• Provides full serial console passthrough over telnet session
• Provides a basic push OTA firmware update system, rollback-compatible, through simple_pushota

baudrate <value> set
baudrate {get|save}
firmware {get|set|save|quit}
{ledhdd|ledpower} get
{power|reset} [long] press
console
help
quit

Commands are self-explanatory, possibly needing explanation: firmware set triggers the push OTA update system, firmware save marks the newly booted firmware as valid and prevents rollback, firwmare quit requests rollback and reboots.

To push a new firmware to the device once the push OTA system is started, use e.g.:

curl <esphost>:<OTA_PORT> --data-binary @build/espatxctrl.bin

Possibly adjust the default "password" string ("admin") in main/cmdparse.l (look for /* password */), and confirm that the ports and baudrate defined in platform.h suits you, then run:

idf.py reconfigure

Note: you may want to adjust the hostname under the lwIP component.

Build the project and flash it to the board:

idf.py flash
