This enables the SIM to be PIN Locked (to prevent unauthorised re-use of the SIM elsewhere), while still allowing the router to connect to the cellular service. When this feature is enabled the PIN entered by the user when they set the “Remember PIN” feature is encrypted and stored locally in the router. The next time the SIM asks the router for the PIN the router decrypts the PIN and automatically sends it to the SIM without user intervention. When this feature is disabled and the SIM is PIN locked, the PIN must be manually entered via the router‘s configuration interface. This is clearly not desirable where the router is unattended.

Thus all the routes in the router’s routing table will be advertised to other nearby routers. For example, the route for the router’s Ethernet subnet could be advertised to a Router on the PPP interface side so that a Router on this network will know how to route to a device on the router’s Ethernet subnet. You will have to add the routes appropriately in the Static Routes section – see Adding Static Routes. Please note: Some routers will ignore RIP.

This increased reliability is achieved by advertising a “virtual router” (an abstract representation of master and backup routers acting as a group) as a default gateway to the host(s) instead of one physical router. Two or more physical routers are then configured to stand for the virtual router, with only one doing the actual routing at any given time. If the current physical router that is routing the data on behalf of the virtual router fails, an arrangement is made for another physical router to automatically replace it. The physical router that is currently forwarding data on behalf of the virtual router is called the master router. Master routers have a priority of 255 and backup router(s) can have priority between 1 and 254. A virtual router must use 00-00-5E-00-01-XX as its (MAC) address. The last byte of the address (XX) is the Virtual Router Identifier (VRID), which is different for each virtual router in the network. This address is used by only one physical router at a time, and is the only way that other physical routers can identify the master router within a virtual router. Figure 26 - VRRP Settings 1. Click Enable for the “VRRP Enable” option to activate VRRP. 2. Enter an ID – this is the VRRP ID which is different for each virtual router on the network. 3. Enter a priority – a higher value is a higher priority. 4. Enter the VRRP IP address – this is the virtual IP address that both virtual routers share. 5. Click the “Save VRRP” button. Please note: Configuring VRRP changes the MAC address of the Ethernet port and therefore if you want to resume with the web configuration you must use the new IP address (VRRP IP) or on a command prompt type: arp –d <ip address> (i.e. arp –d 192.168.1.1) to clear the arp cache.(old MAC address).

Figure 43 - System Monitor Settings The Periodic Ping Reset Monitor configures the router to transmit controlled ping packets to 2 specified IP addresses. Should the router not receive responses to the pings, the router will reboot. This works as follows: 1. After every “Periodic Ping Timer” configured interval, the router sends 3 consecutive pings to the “Destination Address”. 2. If all 3 pings fail the router sends 3 consecutive pings to the “Redundant Address”. 3. The router then sends 3 consecutive pings to the “Destination Address” and 3 consecutive pings to the “Redundant Address” every “Failure Retry Period” configured interval. 4. If all accelerated pings in step 3 above fail the number of times configured in “Failures Before Reset”, the router reboots. 5. If any ping succeeds the router returns to step 1 and does not reboot. Please note: The “Periodic Ping Timer” should never be set to a value less than 60 seconds; this is to allow the router time to reconnect to the cellular network following a reboot. How to disable the Periodic Ping Monitor To disable the Periodic Ping Reset Monitor simply set the “Retry Period” field to 0. Please note: The traffic generated by the periodic ping feature is counted as chargeable usage, please keep this in mind when selecting how often to ping. How to configure a Forced Reset This facility is available by clicking on the “Services” menu followed by the “System Monitor” menu item on the right. The router can be configured to automatically reboot after a period of time specified in minutes. While this is not necessary, it does ensure that in the case of remote installations, it will reboot the router if some anomaly occurs. The default value is 0 which disables the “Forced Reset Every” field. The maximum value is 65535 minutes.

The following page details the options available via the SMS function. Redirect To Mobile You can forward incoming text messages to a different destination number. This destination number can be another mobile phone or 3G router phone number. To disable the feature, simply delete the number in the ‘Redirect To Mobile” field and click the “Save” button. For Example: If someone sends a text message and “Redirect to Mobile” is set to “0412345678”, this text message is stored on the router and forwarded to “0412345678” at the same time. Redirect to TCP & TCP Port, Redirect to UDP & UDP Port You can also forward incoming text messages to a TCP/UDP based destination. The TCP or UDP server can be any kind of public or private server if the server accepts incoming text-based message. The TCP/UDP address can be an IP address or domain name. The port number range is from 1 to 65535. Please refer to your TCP/UDP based SMS server configuration for which port to use. For Example: If someone sends a text message and “Redirect to TCP” is set to “192.168.20.3” and “2002”, this text message is stored in the router and forwarded to “192.168.20.3” on port “2002” at the same time. SMS Configuration for Remote Diagnostics Enable Remote Diagnostics Enable or disable the Remote Diagnostics feature. If this setting is enabled all incoming text messages are parsed and tested for if they contain Remote Diagnostics commands. If Remote Diagnostics commands are found, the router executes those commands. This feature is disabled by default. Please note: It is possible to adjust settings and prevent your router from functioning correctly. If this occurs, you will need to perform a factory reset in order to restore normal operation. It is highly recommended to enable security when utilising this feature.

This enables you to change the configuration or check on the status of the router via SMS commands. Figure 49 - SMS Diagnostics Settings The following section details the configuration items available. Enable Authentication Enable or disable checking the sender’s phone number against the allowed sender “White List” for incoming Diagnostics/Command Execution SMS messages. If authentication is enabled, the router will check if the sender’s number exists in the “White List”. If it exists, the router then checks the password in the incoming message against the password in the “White List” for the corresponding sending number. If they match, the Diagnostics/Command is executed. If the number does not exist in “White List” or the password does not match, the router does not execute the incoming Diagnostics/Command Execution SMS message. This is enabled by default. It is highly recommended to enable security when utilising the Diagnostics/Command Execution feature. Send Ack. SMS for Set Command Enable or disable sending an acknowledge message after execution of a “Set” command. If disabled the router does not send any acknowledgement after execution of a “Set” command. This can be useful to determine if a command was received and executed by the router. This is disabled by default.
