Hello,
I am currently working with a ChirpStack Mesh Gateway architecture, and I would like some clarification regarding the retrieval of gateway statistics from mesh gateways.
Here is the use case I am facing:
I have a Border Gateway and a Mesh Gateway.
The Border Gateway is connected to the IP network and forwards data to an MQTT server.
This Border Gateway also publishes various gateway statistics to the MQTT server, such as the duty cycle, which is very useful for monitoring purposes.
The Mesh Gateway, however, communicates only through the Mesh network and does not have direct access to the MQTT server, so it cannot publish its statistics by itself.
My goal is to be able to access the statistics of the Mesh Gateway, especially duty cycle information, in the same way as for the Border Gateway.
My questions are therefore:
Is it possible to retrieve statistics (such as duty cycle) from a Mesh Gateway through the Mesh network and via the Border Gateway?
Are these statistics already transmitted in some form within the mesh?
Is there a specific configuration, commands, API, or mechanism to forward these statistics?
Or is this currently not supported?
Thank you in advance for your help and for sharing your experience.
Best regards,
