Connect to Wi-Fi by importing credentials in the network.json file

If you do not want to include your network's password in the configuration file (created on INSIGHT webportal), you can provide it in the network.json template and upload it directly to your Gateway Plus by following these steps:

Create the `network.json` file

Open a text editor (E.g. Notepad, Sublime Text, VS Code).

Copy the snippet below into the editor.

{
  "wifi": {
	"wifi_auth": [
		{
		    "ssid": "Your SSID",
		    "visibility": "ACCESS_POINT_VISIBILITY_VISIBLE",
		    "wpa_psk": {
		        "psk": "Your Password"
		    }
		}
	]
  }
}

Table 16. File settings

Field Name	Description	Type	Example	Default Value	Comment
`ssid`	The SSID of the access point	String	`0xx00x`		SSID is a required value and its max length is 32 characters.
`visibility`	The visibility of the access point	String	`ACCESS_POINT_VISIBILITY_VISIBLE`; `ACCESS_POINT_VISIBILITY_HIDDEN`	`ACCESS_POINT_VISIBILITY_VISIBLE`
`psk`	The Pre-Shared key	String	`000000000`		Required.

Note

The example snippet uses the default WPA Personal authentication protocol. To learn more about different authentication protocols, see additional Wi-Fi settings.
The field visibility is set to ACCESS_POINT_VISIBILITY_VISIBLE by default. If the network is hidden, replace it with ACCESS_POINT_VISIBILITY_HIDDEN.

For a proxy connection, the file needs to contain the following code:

{
    "proxy_settings": {
        "hostname": "192.168.178.124",
        "port": 8888,
        "ignore_os_level_proxy_settings": true
    }
}

The proxy settings may contain other fields below, which are relevant for usage on Gateway Plus. Those settings will be ignored on INSIGHT Mobile (Android).

Table 17. Proxy settings

Field Name	Description	Type	Example	Default Value	Comment
`hostname`	Host name of the proxy server that should be used	String, URL format without protocol (http, https prefix)	`"mycompanyproxy.com"`, `"192.168.101.1"`, `null`	`null`	If this is null, port is expected to be null as well, and no proxy will be set.
`port`	Port number of the proxy server that should be used	Integer, valid port number	`"8080"`, `null`	`null`	If this is null, hostname should be null as well, and no proxy will be set.
`ignore_os_level_proxy_settings`	In case of no specified proxy, check whether to use or ignore proxy settings configured on OS Wi-Fi connection level.	Boolean	`true`, `false`	`false`	If no proxy is configured, by default OS level proxy will be used. You must specify as "true" if that proxy should be ignored.

Under ssid, replace Your SSID with the name of your Wi-Fi network.
Under psk, replace Your Password with the password for the entered ssid.
Save the file as network.json.
Create a .zip archive of the network.json file.
Note
For proxy settings, the .zip file should be named network_config.zip. The .zip file can contain other files as well, those will simply be ignored.
Apply the provisioning file to your Gateway Plus.
