// Configuration parameters

// The product ID, device ID, and server URL picked here are not
// configured in the Nabto Basestation. Therefore, the basestation
// will reject the device when it attempts to attach to the
// basestation. This example will still work if the client is able to
// discover the device on the local network. Alternatively, replace
// these values with valid values from the Nabto Cloud Console. The
// private Key is set to NULL, this causes this code to generate a new
// private key (see function "start_device"). If the device should be able to attach
// to the basestation, the private key here should be set to a valid
// private key, and the fingerprint of the key must be configured in
// the Nabto Cloud Console.
