The end goal will be to have none of the Pis connected to wifi; this will be a closed unit. For now, both of the Pis I’m testing with are connected to my wifi.
I want to communicate over USB, and it seemed like ethernet-over-USB + regular web services are the easiest way to do that.
The goal is to have each Pi Zero be able to communicate with the Pi 4b and the Pi 4b be able to communicate with each Pi Zero.
When you say I should see it as a USB-Ethernet card, where would I see it? I only see eth0, lo, and wlan0 when I use ifconfig -a
on the 4b.
EDIT: Oh my god. My cable was bad. I swapped cables and now I can see it.
Start with running something in docker. Probably get
containous/whoami
running, thenportainer
, then eithertraefik
orcaddy
.Once you’ve got that all working, you can run anything you want easily.
If you’ve got an old machine lying around, you can use that to start.
