## Requirements

This example uses by default an Ethernet connection to the internet.
It's possible to switch to another network interface by using [Easy Connect](https://github.com/ARMmbed/easy-connect/blob/master/README.md). The [Mbed OS Example Client](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os-example-client#application-setup) application shows an example of how to configure other network interfaces.
This example uses the default network connection available to the target development board. Where that board uses ethernet, no further configuration is necessary, but where the board uses Wifi, the SSID, password and WiFi security protocol will need to be defined in your `mbed_app.json` file.

The networking stack used in this example requires TLS functionality to be enabled on Mbed TLS. On devices where hardware entropy is not present, TLS is disabled by default. This would result in compile time or linking failures.
The networking stack used in this example requires TLS functionality to be enabled on Mbed TLS. On devices where hardware entropy is not present, TLS is disabled by default. Building the example withou an entropy source will result in a build time failure.

To learn why entropy is required, read the [TLS Porting guide](https://docs.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os-handbook/en/latest/advanced/tls_porting/).
