14
M2M Cellular Gateway
1.6.3 Install the External Antenna
As illustrated in Section 1.3, there are several SMA antenna Jacks for you to install the required antennas for
the RF signal transmission and receiving. You have to purchase required RF cables and antennas separately for
a specific project or installation site to get excellent RF performance.
Since there is limited spacing for allocating all SMA antenna Jacks around the enclosure, the separation among
SMA Jacks (or direct‐attached antennas) could be not the optimized arrangement. It is very likely to get
degraded RF performance at specific circumstances. It depends heavily on the environment.
However, there are well‐known rules of thumb for solving the antenna separation issue.
1: The horizontal distance between antennas should be greater than 1/4 of its wavelength, and there will be
best separation at 1/2 of its wavelength.
2. If multiple frequency antennas are near each other, then use spacing distance of the lower frequency
antenna, or even better try to satisfy the rule for both frequencies.

Chapter 2 Basic Network
2.1 WAN & Uplink
The gateway provides multiple WAN interfaces to let all client hosts in Intranet of the gateway access the
Internet via ISP. But ISPs in the world apply various connection protocols to let gateways or user's devices dial
in ISPs and then link to the Internet via different kinds of transmit media.
So, the WAN Connection lets you specify the WAN Physical Interface, WAN Internet Setup and WAN Load
Balance for Intranet to access Internet. For each WAN interface, you must specify its physical interface first
and then its Internet setup to connect to ISP. Besides, since the gateway has multiple WAN interfaces, you can
assign physical interface to participate in the Load Balance function.
18
M2M Cellular Gateway
2.1.1 Physical Interface
M2M gateways are usually equipped with various WAN interfacess to support different WAN connection
scenario for requirement. You can configure the WAN interface one by one to get proper internet connection
setup. Refer to the product specification for the available WAN interfaces in the product you purchased.
The first step to configure one WAN interface is to specify which kind of connection media to be used for the
WAN connection, as shown in "Physical Interface" page.
In "Physical Interface" page, there are two configuration windows, "Physical Interface List" and "Interface
Configuration". "Physical Interface List" window shows all the available physical interfaces. After clicking on
the "Edit" button for the interface in "Physical Interface List" window the "Interface Configuration" window
will appear to let you configure a WAN interface.
Physical Interface:
• Ethernet WAN: The gateway has one or more RJ45 WAN ports that can be configured to be WAN
connections. You can directly connect to external DSL modem or setup behind a firewall device.
• 3G/4G WAN: The gateway has one built‐in 3G/4G cellular as WAN connection. For each cellular WAN,
there are 1 or 2 SIM cards to be inserted for special failover function.

Please MUST POWER OFF the gateway before you
insert or remove SIM card.

The SIM card can be damaged if you insert or
remove SIM card while the gateway is in operation.
19
M2M Cellular Gateway
Operation Mode:
There are three option items “Always on”, “Failover”, and “Disable” for the operation mode setting.
Always on: Set this WAN interface to be active all the time. When two or more WAN are established at
"Always on" mode, outgoing data will through these WAN connections base on load balance policies.
Failover:
A failover interface is a backup connection to the
primary. That means only when its primary WAN
connection is broken, the backup connection will be
started up to substitute the primary connection.
As shown in the diagram, WAN‐2 is backup WAN for
WAN‐1. WAN‐1 serves as the primary connection with
operation mode "Always on". WAN‐2 won’t be
activated until WAN‐1 disconnected. When WAN‐1
connection is recovered back with a connection, it will
take over data traffic again. At that time, WAN‐2
connection will be terminated.
Seamless Failover:
In addition, there is a "Seamless" option for Failover
operation mode. When seamless option is activated
by checking on the "Seamless" box in configuration
window, both the primary connection and the
failover connection are started up after system
rebooting. But only the primary connection executes
the data transfer, while the failover one just keeps
alive of connection line. As soon as the primary
connection is broken, the system will switch,
meaning failover, the routing path to the failover
connection to save the dial up time of failover
connection since it has been alive.
When the “Seamless” enable checkbox is activated, it
can allow the Failover interface to be connected
continuously from system booting up. Failover WAN
interface just keeps connecting without data traffic.
20
M2M Cellular Gateway
The purpose is to shorten the switch time during failover process. So, when primary connection is
disconnected, failover interface will take over the data transfer mission instantly by only changing routing
path to the failover interface. The dialing‐up time of failover connection is saved since it has been
connected beforehand.
VLAN Tagging
Sometimes, your ISP required a VLAN tag to be inserted into the WAN packets from Gateway for specific
services. Please enable VLAN tagging and specify tag in the WAN physical interface. Please be noted that only
Ethernet and ADSL physical interfaces support the feature. For the device with 3G/4G WAN only, it is disabled.
21

Physical Interface Setting
Go to Basic Network > WAN > Physical Interface tab.
The Physical Interface allows user to setup the physical WAN interface and to adjust WAN’s behavior.
Note: Numbers of available WAN Interfaces can be different for the purchased gateway.

2.1.2 Internet Setup
After specifying the physical interface for each WAN connection, administrator must configure their
connection profile to meet the dial in process of ISP, so that all client hosts in the Intranet of the gateway can
access the Internet.
In "Internet Setup" page, there are some configuration windows: "Internet Connection List", "Internet
Connection Configuration", "WAN Type Configuration" and related configuration windows for each WAN type.
For the Internet setup of each WAN interface, you must specify its WAN type of physical interface first and
then its related parameter configuration for that WAN type.
After clicking on the "Edit" button of a physical interface in "Internet Setup List" window, the "Internet
Connection Configuration" window will appear to let you specify which kind of WAN type that you will use for
that physical interface to make an Internet connection. Based on your chosen WAN type, you can configure
necessary parameters in each corresponding configuration window.

Internet Connection List ‐ Ethernet WAN
WAN Type for Ethernet Interface:
Ethernet is the most common WAN and uplink interface for M2M gateways. Usually it is connected with xDSL
or cable modem for you to setup the WAN connection. There are various WAN types to connect with ISP.
• Static IP: Select this option if ISP provides a fixed IP to you when you subsribe the service. Usually is more
expensive but very importat for cooperate requirement.
• Dynamic IP: The assigned IP address for the WAN by a DHCP server is different every time. It is cheaper
and usually for consumer use.
• PPP over Ethernet: As known as PPPoE. This WAN type is widely used for ADSL connection. IP is usually
different for every dial up.
• PPTP: This WAN type is popular in some countries, like Russia.
• L2TP : This WAN type is popular in some countries, like Israel.

Ethernet Connection Common Configuration
There are some important parameters to be setup no matter which Ethernet WAN type is selected. You should
follow up the rule to configure.
Connection Control.
Auto‐reconnect: This gateway will establish
Internet connection automatically once it has
been booted up, and try to reconnect once the
connection is down. It’s recommended to choose
this scheme if for mission critical applications to
ensure full‐time Internet connection.
Connect‐on‐demand: This gateway won’t start to
establish Internet connection until local data is
going to be sent to WAN side. After normal data
transferring between LAN and WAN sides, this
gateway will disconnect WAN connection if idle
time reaches value of Maximum Idle Time.
30
M2M Cellular Gateway
Manually: This gateway won’t start to establish
WAN connection until you press “Connect”
button on web UI. After normal data transferring
between LAN and WAN sides, this gateway will
disconnect WAN connection if idle time reaches
value of Maximum Idle Time.
Please be noted, if the WAN interface serves as the primary one for another WAN interface in Failover role,
the Connection Control parameter will not be available to you to configure as the system must set it to “Auto‐
reconnect (Always on)”.
Network Monitoring
It is necessary to monitor connection status continuous.
To do it, "ICMP Check" and "FQDN Query" are used to
check. When there is trafiic of connection, checking
packet will waste bandwidth. Response time of replied
packets may also increase. To avoid "Network
Monitoring" work abnormally, enabling "Checking
Loading" option will stop connection check when there is
traffic. It will wait for another "Check Interval" and then
check loading again.
When you do “Network Monitoring”, if reply time longer
than "Latency" or even no response longer than
"Checking Timeout", "Fail" count will be increased. If it is
continuous and "Fail" count is more than "Fail Threshold",
gateway will do exception handing process and re‐initial
this connection again . Otherwise, network monitoring
process will be start again.

MTU refers to Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet
size permitted for Internet transmission.
When set to Auto (value ‘0’), the router selects the best MTU for best
Internet connection performance.
Enable NAT to apply NAT on the WAN connection. Uncheck the box to
disable NAT function.
When the Network Monitoring feature is enabled, the gateway will use
DNS Query or ICMP to periodically check Internet connection –connected
or disconnected.

Choose either DNS Query or ICMP Checking to detect WAN link.
With DNS Query, the system checks the connection by sending DNS
Query packets to the destination specified in Target 1 and Target 2.
With ICMP Checking, the system will check connection by sending
ICMP request packets to the destination specified in Target 1 and
Target 2.

Loading Check
Enable Loading Check allows the router to ignore unreturned DNS
Queries or ICMP requests when WAN bandwidth is fully occupied.
This is to prevent false link‐down status.


Internet Connection – 3G/4G WAN
Preferred SIM Card – Dual SIM Fail Over
For 3G/4G embedded device, one embedded cellular module can create only one WAN interface. This device
has featured by using dual SIM cards for one module with special fail‐over mechanism. It is called Dual SIM
Failover. This feature is useful for ISP switch over when location is changed. Within “Dual SIM Failover”, there
are various usage scenarios, including "SIM‐A First", "SIM‐B First“ with “Failback” enabled or not, and “SIM‐A
Only and “SIM‐B Only”.
34
M2M Cellular Gateway
SIM‐A/SIM‐B only: When “SIM‐A Only” or “SIM‐B Only” is used, the specified SIM slot card is the only one to
be used for negotiation parameters between gateway device and cellular ISP.
SIM‐A / SIM‐B first without enable Failback
By default, “SIM‐A First” scenario is used to connect to cellular ISP for
data transfer. In the case of “SIM‐A First” or “SIM‐B First” scenario, the
gateway will try to connect to the Internet by using SIM‐A or SIM‐B card
first. And when the connection is broken, the gateway will switch to use
the other SIM card for an alternate automatically and will not switch back
to use original SIM card except current SIM connection is also broken.
That is, SIM‐A and SIM‐B are used iteratively, but either one will keep
being used for data transfer when current connection is still alive.
SIM‐A / SIM‐B first with Failback enable
With Failback option enabled, “SIM‐A First” scenario is
used to connect when the connection is broken, gateway
system will switch to use SIM‐B. And when SIM‐A
connection is recovered, it will switch back to use original
SIM‐A card

When SIM‐A First or SIM‐B First is selected, it means the connection is built
first by using SIM A/SIM B. And if the connection is failed, it will change to
the other SIM card and try to dial again, until the connection is up.
When SIM‐A only or SIM‐B only is selected, it will try to dial up only using
the SIM card you selected.
When Failback is checked, it means if the connection is dialed‐up not using
the main SIM you selected, it will failback to the main SIM and try to
establish the connection periodically.
Note_1: For the product with single SIM design, only SIM‐A Only option is
available.
Note_2: Failback is available only when SIM‐A First or SIM‐B First is
selected.
Check the Enable box to activate the function.
By default, if you disabled the Auto Flight Mode, the cellular module will
always occupy a physical channel with cellular tower. It can get data
connection instantly, and receive managing SMS all the time on required.
If you enabled the Auto Flight Mode, the gateway will pop up a message
“Flight mode will cause cellular function to be malfunctioned when the
data session is offline.”, and it will make the cellular module into flight
mode and disconnected with cellular tower phycially. In, addition,
whenever the cellular module is going to be used for data connection to
backup the failed primary connection, the cellular module will be active to
connect with cellular tower and get the data connection for use, It takes
few more seconds.
Note: Keep it unchecked unless your cellular ISP asked the connected
gateway to enable the Auto Flight Mode.

2.2.2 VLAN
VLAN (Virtual LAN) is a logical network under a certain switch or router device to group client hosts with a
specific VLAN ID. This gateway supports both Port‐based VLAN and Tag‐based VLAN. These functions allow
you to divide local network into different “virtual LANs”. It is common requirement for some application
scenario. For example, there are various departments within SMB. All client hosts in the same department
should own common access privilege and QoS property. You can assign departments either by port‐based
VLAN or tag‐based VLAN as a group, and then configure it by your plan. In some cases, ISP may need router to
support “VLAN tag” for certain kinds of services (e.g. IPTV). You can group all devices required this service as
one tag‐based VLAN.
If the gateway has only one physical Ethernet LAN port, only very limited configuration is available if you
enable the Port‐based VLAN.
 Port‐based VLAN
Port‐based VLAN function can group Ethernet ports, Port‐1 ~ Port‐4, and WiFi Virtual Access Points, VAP‐1 ~
VAP‐8, together for differentiated services like Internet surfing, multimedia enjoyment, VoIP talking, and so on.
Two operation modes, NAT and Bridge, can be applied to each VLAN group. One DHCP server can be allocated
for a NAT VLAN group to let group host member get its IP address. Thus, each host can surf Internet via the
NAT mechanism of business access gateway. In bridge mode, Intranet packet flow is delivered out WAN trunk
port with VLAN tag to upper link for different services.
A port‐based VLAN is a group of ports on an Ethernet or Virtual APs of Wired or Wireless Gateway that form a
logical LAN segment. Following is an example.
For example, in a company, administrator schemes out 3 network segments, Lobby/Meeting Room, Office,
and Data Center. In a Wireless Gateway, administrator can configure Lobby/Meeting Room segment with
VLAN ID 3. The VLAN group includes Port‐3 and VAP‐8 (SSID: Guest) with NAT mode and DHCP‐3 server
equipped. He also configure Office segment with VLAN ID 2. The VLAN group includes Port‐2 and VAP‐1 (SSID:
46
M2M Cellular Gateway
Staff) with NAT mode and DHCP‐2 server equipped. At last, administrator also configure Data Center segment
with VLAN ID 1. The VLAN group includes Port‐1 with NAT mode to WAN interface as shown in following
diagram.
Above is the general case for 3 Ethernet LAN ports in the gateway. But if the device just has one Ethernet LAN
port, there will be only one VLAN group for the device. Under such situation, it still supports both the NAT and
Bridge mode for the Port‐based VLAN configuration.
 Tag‐based VLAN
Tag‐based VLAN function can group Ethernet ports, Port‐1 ~ Port‐4, and WiFi Virtual Access Points, VAP‐1 ~
VAP‐8, together with different VLAN tags for deploying subnets in Intranet. All packet flows can carry with
different VLAN tags even at the same physical Ethernet port for Intranet. These flows can be directed to
different destination because they have differentiated tags. The approach is very useful to group some hosts
at different geographic location to be in the same workgroup.
Tag‐based VLAN is also called a VLAN Trunk. The VLAN Trunk collects all packet flows with different VLAN IDs
from Router device and delivers them in the Intranet. VLAN membership in a tagged VLAN is determined by
VLAN ID information within the packet frames that are received on a port. Administrator can further use a
VLAN switch to separate the VLAN trunk to different groups based on VLAN ID. Following is an example.
47
M2M Cellular Gateway
For example, in a company, administrator schemes out 3 network segments, Lab, Meeting Rooms, and Office.
In a Security VPN Gateway, administrator can configure Office segment with VLAN ID 12. The VLAN group is
equipped with DHCP‐3 server to construct a 192.168.12.x subnet. He also configure Meeting Rooms segment
with VLAN ID 11. The VLAN group is equipped with DHCP‐2 server to construct a 192.168.11.x subnet for
Intranet only. That is, any client host in VLAN 11 group can’t access the Internet. At last, he configures Lab
segment with VLAN ID 10. The VLAN group is equipped with DHCP‐1 server to construct a 192.168.10.x subnet.
48
M2M Cellular Gateway
 VLAN Groups Access Control
Administrator can specify the Internet access permission for all VLAN groups. He can also configure which
VLAN groups are allowed to communicate with each other.
VLAN Group Internet Access
Administrator can specify members of one VLAN group to be able to access Internet or not. Following is an
example that VLAN groups of VID is 2 and 3 can access Internet but the one with VID is 1 cannot access
Internet. That is, visitors in meeting room and staffs in office network can access Internet. But the
computers/servers in data center cannot access Internet since security consideration. Servers in data center
only for trusted staffs or are accessed in secure tunnels.
49
M2M Cellular Gateway
Inter VLAN Group Routing:
In Port‐based tagging, administrator can specify member hosts of one VLAN group to be able to communicate
with the ones of another VLAN group or not. This is a communication pair, and one VLAN group can join many
communication pairs. But communication pair doesn’t have the transitive property. That is, A can
communicate with B, and B can communicate with C, it doesn’t imply that A can communicate with C. An
example is shown at following diagram. VLAN groups of VID is 1 and 2 can access each other but the ones
between VID 1 and VID 3 and between VID 2 and VID 3 can’t.

2.4 IPv6
The growth of the Internet has created a need for more addresses than are possible with IPv4. IPv6 (Internet
Protocol version 6) is a version of the Internet Protocol (IP) intended to succeed IPv4, which is the protocol
currently used to direct almost all Internet traffic. IPv6 also implements additional features not present in IPv4.
It simplifies aspects of address assignment (stateless address auto‐configuration), network renumbering and
router announcements when changing Internet connectivity providers.
2.4.1 IPv6 Configuration
The IPv6 Configuration setting allows user to set the IPv6 connection type to access the IPv6 network. This
gateway supports various types of IPv6 connection, including Static IPv6, DHCPv6, and PPPoEv6
Note: For the products just having 3G/4G WAN interface, only IPv6 is supported. Please contact your ISP for
the IPv6 supports before you proceed with IPv6 setup.
66
M2M Cellular Gateway
IPv6 WAN Connection Type
Static IPv6
Static IPv6 does the same function as static IPv4. The static IPv6 provides manual setting of IPv6 address, IPv6
default gateway address, and IPv6 DNS.
Above diagram depicts the IPv6 IP addressing, type in the information provided by your ISP to setup the IPv6
network.
DHCPv6
DHCP in IPv6 does the same function as DHCP in IPv4. The DHCP server sends IP address, DNS server addresses
and other possible data to the DHCP client to configure automatically. The server also sends a lease time of
the address and time to re‐contact the server for IPv6 address renewal. The client has then to resend a
request to renew the IPv6 address.
67
M2M Cellular Gateway
Above diagram depicts DHCP IPv6 IP addressing, the DHCPv6 server on the ISP side assigns IPv6 address, IPv6
default gateway address, and IPv6 DNS to client host’s automatically.
PPPoEv6
PPPoEv6 in IPv6 does the same function as PPPoE in IPv4. The PPPoEv6 server provides configuration
parameters based on PPPoEv6 client request. When PPPoEv6 server gets client request and successfully
authenticates it, the server sends IP address, DNS server addresses and other required parameters to
automatically configure the client.
The diagram above depicts the IPv6 addressing through PPPoE, PPPoEv6 server (DSLAM) on the ISP side
provides IPv6 configuration upon receiving PPPoEv6 client request. When PPPoEv6 server gets client request
and successfully authenticates it, the server sends IP address, DNS server addresses and other required
parameters to automatically configure the client.

2.5 Port Forwarding
Network address translation (NAT) is a methodology of remapping one IP address space into another by
modifying network address information in Internet Protocol (IP) datagram packet headers while they are in
transit across a traffic routing device. The technique was originally used for ease of rerouting traffic in IP
networks without renumbering every host. It has become a popular and essential tool in conserving global
address space allocations in face of IPv4 address exhaustion. The product you purchased embeds and activates
the NAT function. You also can disable the NAT function in [Basic Network]‐[WAN & Uplink]‐[Internet Setup]‐
[WAN Type Configuration] page.
Usually all local hosts or servers behind corporate gateway are protected by NAT firewall. NAT firewall will filter
out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet. So, all local hosts are invisible to the outside world. Port
forwarding or port mapping is function that redirects a communication request from one address and port
number combination to assigned one. This technique is most commonly used to make services on a host
residing on a protected or masqueraded (internal) network available to hosts on the opposite side of the
gateway (external network), by remapping the destination IP address and port number
There are several optional Port Forwarding related functions in this gateway. They are Virtual Server, Virtual
Computer, IP Translation, Special AP & ALG, DMZ and Pass Through, etc. The available functions might be
different for the purchased model.

2.5.1 Configuration
NAT Loopback
This feature allows you to access the WAN global IP address from your inside NAT local network. It is useful
when you run a server inside your network. For example, if you set a mail server at LAN side, your local
devices can access this mail server through gateway’s global IP address when enable NAT loopback feature. On
either side are you in accessing the email server, at the LAN side or at the WAN side, you don’t need to change
the IP address of the mail server.

2.5.2 Virtual Server & Virtual Computer
There are some important Pot Forwarding functions implemented within the gateway, including "Virtual
Server", "NAT loopback" and "Virtual Computer".
It is necessary for cooperate staffs who travel outside and want to access various servers behind office
gateway. You can set up those servers by using "Virtual Server" feature. After trip, if want to access those
servers from LAN side by global IP, without change original setting, NAT Loopback can achieve it.
"Virtual computer" is a host behind NAT gateway whose IP address is a global one and is visible to the outside
world. Since it is behind NAT, it is protected by gateway firewall. To configure Virtual Computer, you just have
to map the local IP of the virtual computer to a global IP.
77
M2M Cellular Gateway
Virtual Server & NAT Loopback
"Virtual Server" allows you to access servers with the
global IP address or FQDN of the gateway as if they are
servers existed in the Internet. But in fact, these servers
are located in the Intranet and are physically behind the
gateway. The gateway serves the service requests by port
forwarding the requests to the LAN servers and transfers
the replies from LAN servers to the requester on the
WAN side. As shown in example, an E‐mail virtual server
is defined to be located at a server with IP address
10.0.75.101 in the Intranet of Network‐A, including SMTP
service port 25 and POP3 service port 110. So, the
remote user can access the E‐mail server with the
gateway’s global IP 118.18.81.33 from its WAN side. But the real E‐mail server is located at LAN side and the
gateway is the port forwarder for E‐mail service.
NAT Loopback allows you to access the WAN global IP address from your inside NAT local network. It is useful
when you run a server inside your network. For example, if you set a mail server at LAN side, your local
devices can access this mail server through gateway’s global IP address when enable NAT loopback feature. On
either side are you in accessing the email server, at the LAN side or at the WAN side, you don’t need to change
the IP address of the mail server.
Virtual Computer
"Virtual Computer" allows you to assign LAN hosts to
global IP addresses, so that they can be visible to outside
world. While so, they are also protected by the gateway
firewall as being client hosts in the Intranet. For example,
if you set a FTP file server at LAN side with local IP
address 10.0.75.102 and global IP address 118.18.82.44,
a remote user can access the file server while it is hidden
behind the NAT gateway. That is because the gateway
takes care of all accessing to the IP address 118.18.82.44,
including to forward the access requests to the file
server and to send the replies from the server to outside
world.

2.5.3 DMZ & Pass Through
DMZ (De Militarized Zone) Host is a host that is exposed to the Internet cyberspace but still within the
protection of firewall by gateway device. So, the function allows a computer to execute 2‐way communication
for Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. In some cases
when a specific application is blocked by NAT mechanism, you can indicate that LAN computer as a DMZ host
to solve this problem.
The DMZ function allows you to ask the gateway pass through all normal packets to the DMZ host behind the
NAT gateway only when these packets are not expected to receive by applications in the gateway or by other
client hosts in the Intranet. Certainly, the DMZ host is also protected by the gateway firewall. Activate the
feature and specify the DMZ host with a host in the Intranet when needed.
DMZ Scenario
When the network administrator wants to set up
some service daemons in a host behind NAT
gateway to allow remote users request for services
from server actively, you just have to configure this
host as DMZ Host. As shown in the diagram, there
is an X server installed as DMZ host, whose IP
address is 10.0.75.100. Then, remote user can
request services from X server just as it is provided
by the gateway whose global IP address is
118.18.81.33. The gateway will forward those
packets, not belonging to any configured virtual
server or applications, directly to the DMZ host.

The gateway support the pass through function for
IPSec, PPTP, and L2TP connections, you just have
to check the corresponding checkbox to activate it.

2.6 Routing
If you have more than one router and subnet, you will need to enable routing function to allow packets to find
proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other. Routing is the process of
selecting best paths in a network. It is performed for many kinds of networks, like electronic data networks
(such as the Internet), by using packet switching technology. The routing process usually directs forwarding on
the basis of routing tables which maintain a record of the routes to various network destinations. Thus,
constructing routing tables, which are held in the router's memory, is very important for efficient routing. Most
routing algorithms use only one network path at a time.
The routing tables record your pre‐defined routing paths for some specific destination subnets. It is static
routing. However, if the contents of routing tables record the obtained routing paths from neighbor routers by
using some protocols, such as RIP, OSPF and BGP. It is dynamic routing. These both routing approaches will be
illustrated one after one. In addition, the gateway also built in one advanced configurable routing software
Quagga for more complex routing applications, you can configure it if required via Telnet CLI.
86
M2M Cellular Gateway
2.6.1 Static Routing
"Static Routing" function lets you define the routing paths for some dedicated hosts/servers or subnets to store
in the routing table of the gateway. The gateway routes incoming packets to different peer gateways based on
the routing table. You need to define the static routing information in gateway routing rule list.
When the administrator of the gateway wants to
specify what kinds of packets to be transferred via
which gateway interface and which peer gateway to
their destination. It can be carried out by the "Static
Routing" feature. Dedicated packet flows from the
Intranet will be routed to their destination via the pre‐
defined peer gateway and corresponding gateway
interface that are defined in the system routing table
by manual.
As shown in the diagram, when the destination is
Google access, rule 1 set interface as ADSL, routing
gateway as IP‐DSLAM gateway 192.168.121.253. All the
packets to Google will go through WAN‐1. And the
same way applied to rule 2 of access Yahoo. Rule 2 sets
3G/4G as interface.

2.6.2 Dynamic Routing
Dynamic Routing, also called adaptive routing, describes the capability of a system, through which routes are
characterized by their destination, to alter the path that the route takes through the system in response to a
change in network conditions.
This gateway supports dynamic routing protocols, including RIPv1/RIPv2 (Routing Information Protocol), and
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), for you to establish routing table automatically. The feature of dynamic
routing will be very useful when there are lots of subnets in your network. Generally speaking, RIP is suitable
for small network. OSPF is more suitable for medium network.
The supported dynamic routing protocols are described as follows.
90
M2M Cellular Gateway
RIP Scenario
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the
oldest distance‐vector routing protocols, which
employs the hop count as a routing metric. RIP
prevents routing loops by implementing a limit on the
number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a
destination. The maximum number of hops allowed
for RIP is 15. This hop limit, however, also limits the
size of networks that RIP can support. A hop count of
16 is considered an infinite distance, in other words
the route is considered unreachable. RIP implements
the split horizon, route poisoning and hold‐down
mechanisms to prevent incorrect routing information
from being propagated.
OSPF Scenario
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a routing protocol
that uses link state routing algorithm. It is the most
widely used interior gateway protocol (IGP) in large
enterprise networks. It gathers link state information
from available routers and constructs a topology map
of the network. The topology is presented as a routing
table which routes datagrams based solely on the
destination IP address.
Network administrator can deploy OSPF gateway in
large enterprise network to get its routing table from
the enterprise backbone, and forward routing
information to other routers, which are no linked to
the enterprise backbone. Usually, an OSPF network is
subdivided into routing areas to simplify
administration and optimize traffic and resource
utilization.
As shown in the diagram, OSPF gateway gathers routing information from the backbone gateways in area 0,
and will forward its routing information to the routers in area 1 and area 2 which are not in the backbone.

2.7 DNS & DDNS
How does user access your server if your WAN IP address changes all the time? One way is to register a new
domain name, and maintain your own DNS server. Another simpler way is to apply a domain name to a third‐
party DDNS service provider. The service can be free or charged. If you want to understand the basic concepts
of DNS and Dynamic DNS, you can refer to Wikipedia website7,8.
2.7.1 DNS & DDNS Configuration
Dynamic DNS
To host your server on a changing IP address, you
have to use dynamic domain name service (DDNS).
Therefore, anyone wishing to reach your host only
needs to know the domain name. Dynamic DNS will
map the name of your host to your current IP
address, which changes each time you connect your
Internet service provider.
The Dynamic DNS service allows the gateway to alias
a public dynamic IP address to a static domain name,
allowing the gateway to be more easily accessed
from various locations on the Internet. As shown in
the diagram, user registered a domain name to a
third‐party DDNS service provider (NO‐IP) to use DDNS function. Once the IP address of designated WAN
interface has changed, the dynamic DNS agent in the gateway will inform the DDNS server with the new IP
address. The server automatically re‐maps your domain name with the changed IP address. So, other hosts or
remote users in the Internet world are able to link to your gateway by using your domain name regardless of
the changing global IP address.
