The Contiki Shell is an interactive on-mote UNIX-­style shell that allows for text‐based interaction with a sensor node or a network of sensor nodes through a set of commands that can be executed on a UNIX like command line terminal. It has features such as piping data, run in background, file system interaction, network commands, sensor measurement commands and system commands. The shell can be accessed either over a serial USB connection or over a network using Telnet. In this tutorial, we will run the shell over a USB serial connection.
