ESP8266 WiFi gateway and signing

[bilbolodz]

Is signing for ESP8266 gateway supported? I know that hardware signing is NOT supported but how about software? If so should be personalization in usual way (using sketch from examples) like "arduino nano" nodes?

@bilbolodz soft signing should work, yes.

So I should first "personalise" ESP8266 device with "standard personalising sketch" and than upload my GW code with #define MY_SIGNING_SOFT. Right?

@bilbolodz The procedure is no different compared to other nodes. Unless you use the "simple" security flags, in which case no personalization is needed.

OK I will try it today. Yesterday I've done such procedure (without success) but now I've realised that I've used OLD (2.1) personalisation script (saved on disk) but loaded GW code compiled with 2.2 library. Probably that's an issue.

@bilbolodz Yes, then you lack the checksum and you should get a init-error from the security backend.
