Hi Everyone,
I need help. I am currently using my system in basic station mode. I want to make it safer. I’m having problems installing the cert. My configuration is as follows:
Ubuntu server 22.04 LTS
Chirpstack v4.3
Dragino LPS8 fw: lgw-5.4.1678963959 (lastest firmware)
Based on this, I generated the ca and the cert:
Which config files should I modify to get a working system?
I tried modifying the chirpstack.toml and chirpstack-gateway-bridge.toml config files, but I was unsuccessful. Can I get directions with a working how-to?
I have already studied these:https://www.chirpstack.io/docs/chirpstack/configuration.html https://www.chirpstack.io/docs/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/configuration.html

(aka chirpstack installation steps)
## platforms
The typical installation likely [is into a virtual machine](https://github.com/brocaar/chirpstack-ansible-playbook) or into remote [instance on the cloud](https://hostadvice.com/tools/web-hosting-comparison/). However when installing directly onto local machine, ansible probably doesnt do much for you.
Chirpstack installs on debian based platforms, eg Ubuntu or raspberry pi. Other distributions with different packaging management would require downloading chirpstack binaries.
If you're a windows 10 user, you may chose to practice installation on WSL2. Although WSL would never be used for actual server (by any sane person), its useful to run virtual machine to familiarize yourself with install / setup procedure of chirpstack. [Watch this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fntjriRe48) if you havent already got WSL2 on windows 10. Be sure to set default to WSL**2** in terminal prior to installing linux. Its also [recommended to enable systemd](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/WSL/issues/457#issuecomment-751351142), just to be the same as other linux as far as starting & stopping services. When finished you can [reset WSL to clean condition](https://winaero.com/reset-unregister-wsl-linux-distro-windows-10/) in non-configured state, allowing you to restart the entire procedure from a clean slate; equivalent to wiping a hard drive.
On other platforms, if you plan to store database on MicroSD card, you need to be sure to use a high endurance MicroSD, such as one that implements wear leveling.show original
Thank you for your patience!
why not use the Chirpstack-gateway-bridge firmware?
