Barracuda App Server hardware evaluation kit

Use the Hardware Eval Kit When

You want to evaluate BAS on a physical Wi-Fi device instead of only on a desktop host.
You need a preconfigured tutorial environment for testing Lua Server Pages, web UIs, and secure device applications.
Your team wants to explore browser-to-device control with the optional ESP8266 SMQ demo firmware.

What Is Included

Ready-to-Use BAS Device

The hardware is configured as a Wi-Fi access point, so you can connect with a laptop or tablet and start the tutorials without installing a local toolchain first.

Tutorials and Browser Tools

The included environment demonstrates how BAS hosts web interfaces, Lua Server Pages, and server-side application logic directly from the device.

Optional ESP8266 SMQ Demo

The optional ESP8266 board can be pre-flashed with firmware that connects to the BAS access point and lets you control LEDs from a browser-based single-page application.

Optional SMQ Device Demo

The ESP8266 option is useful for companies evaluating Real Time Logic's SMQ technology. It demonstrates how a small Wi-Fi device can connect to the Barracuda App Server and participate in a live browser-to-device application. See the Barracuda Server Eval Kit Getting Started Guide for details.

Limitations:
The hardware eval kit is available exclusively to companies with a U.S. mailing address. If you are outside the U.S., please download the standard BAS evaluation package instead.
