The device config options are: Role, Serial Output, Debug Log, NTP Server and Factory Reset. Device config uses an admin message sending a `Config.Device` protobuf.
## Device Config Values
### Role
Sets the role of node.
Acceptable values:
| Value | Description |
| :-------: | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------: |
| `client` | Client (default) - App connected client. |
| `clientMute` | Client Mute - Same as a client except packets will not hop over this node, does not contribute to routing packets for mesh. |
| `router` | Router - Mesh packets will prefer to be routed over this node. This node will not be used by client apps. The wifi/ble radios and the oled screen will be put to sleep. |
| `routerClient` | Router Client - Mesh packets will prefer to be routed over this node. The Router Client can be used as both a Router and an app connected Client. |
### Serial Console
Acceptable values: `true` or `false`
On by default. If set to true this will disable the serial console by not initilizing the StreamAPI.
### Debug Log
Acceptable values: `true` or `false`
By default we turn off logging as soon as an API client connects Set this to true to leave the debug log outputting even when API is active.
### NTP Server
Acceptable value: `string`
NTP server to use if WiFi is conneced, defaults to `0.pool.ntp.org`
### Factory Reset
Acceptable values: `true` or `false`
This setting is never saved to disk, but if set, all device settings will be returned to factory defaults.
