==Introduction==
This article contains instructions on how to configure SMS and script/HTTP alerts using I/O Juggler and SMS Utilities between two RUT955 routers.

==Configuration overview and prerequisites==

Before we begin, let's take a look at the configuration that we are attempting to achieve and the prerequisites that make it possible. On a RUT1, an I/O Juggler action is created to execute a command when Input 1 is being triggered to a state of "high" by a sensor to change the output state to "high" on a RUT2 and trigger the second sensor.

'''Prerequisites''':
* Two RUT95X series routers;
* An end device (PC, Laptop, Tablet, Smartphone) for configuration;
* Device to trigger input;

If you're having trouble finding any page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on '''"Advanced WebUI"''' mode. You can do that by '''clicking''' the '''"Basic"''' button '''under''' '''"Mode,"''' which is located at the top-right corner of the WebUI.

==I/O control via SMS==
This section contains a detailed guide on how to configure an alert to send a SMS command to RUT2 to change the output state when RUT1 Input 1 is triggered.
===RUT 2===
----
This section contains information on how to configure the RUT2 device.
====SMS Utilities configuration====
----
The [[RUT955_Mobile_Utilities#SMS_Utilities|SMS Utilities section]] contains a list of rules that perform certain actions when they are activated by SMS messages. To setup a SMS Utilities Go to the '''Services → Mobile Utilities → SMS Utilities''' page and scroll down for '''Add new rule''';

# Enter '''desired SMS text''' command
# '''Select action''' Change I/O state;
# '''Add''' new '''instance''';

[[File:create new SMS rule IO.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

After this you should redirected to configuration page for that rule:

# Check '''Enable''';
# Action - '''Change I/O state''';
# I/O- '''Output(4)''';
# State- '''High'''
# SMS text- Enter your desired '''SMS text''';

[[File:created SMS rule config IO.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

'''Note:''' Fields that are not indicated can be left as defaults.

===RUT 1===
----
This section contains the RUT1 I/O Juggler configuration.
====I/O Juggler configuration====
----
The [[RUT955_Input/Output#I.2FO_Juggler|I/O Juggler]] is a feature that provides the possibility to create automated rules that perform certain actions based on Input state changes and other conditions.
=====Actions configuration=====
----
The [[RUT955_Input/Output#Actions|Actions section]] is used to manage and create new actions that can be executed by the I/O Juggler Rules. To configure I/O Juggler Actions, follow these steps, go to the '''Services → Input/Output → I/O Juggler → Actions''' page;
# '''Enter''' the desired action '''instance name'''
# Select '''desired action type''';  
# Click '''add'''; 

[[File:create IO juggler action.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

This will open a new configuration page:

* Type- '''SMS''';
* Text message- '''RUT2 password''' and the '''SMS rule''' that have been created on RUT2;
* Recipient's phone number- RUT2''' SIM cards number''';

[[File:create IO juggler action SMS_new.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

'''Note:''' Fields that are not indicated can be left as defaults.

=====General configuration=====
----
The [[RUT955_Input/Output#General|General section]] is used to define Input Trigger Rules, which can perform a specified user-configured action when the Input state changes. Once the I/O Juggler Action tab is configured to be open:
*'''General''' tab '''(1)''' and '''enable''' it '''(2)''';
* Add '''new instance''' role '''(3)''';
* Click Add '''(4)''';

[[File:IO juggler general config.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|1004x1004px]]

After that, you will be prompted to edit an instance:

[[File:IO_Juggler_general_input_config.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|1004x1004px]]
# Check '''Enable''' '''(1)''';
# Trigger '''(2)''' - '''Raising''';
# Add actions '''(3)''' - '''Action name''' that was created previously;

'''Note:''' Fields that are not indicated can be left as defaults.

==I/O control via Public IP and HTTP==
For this configuration, you will need a Static or Dynamic Public IP address on RUT2. You can read more on this in our article on [[Private_and_Public_IP_Addresses|Private and Public IP Addresses.]] The action will run a script/HTTP and execute the POST/GET command that will set the RUT2 output state to "high" using the RUT2 public IP. 

===RUT 2===
----
This section contains information on how to configure the RUT2 device.
====Remote access configuration====
----
The [[RUT955_Administration#Access_Control|Access Control]] page is used to manage remote and local access to devices. Navigate to:

* '''System → Administration → Access Control'''
* Open '''General''' tab '''(1)''' and locate the '''WebUI section''';
* '''Enable''' remote '''HTTP''' '''(2)''' and '''HTTPS''' access '''(3)''';
* '''Save''' and '''apply''' '''changes''' '''(4)''';

[[File:Access control rutos1.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|1004x1004px]]

====I/O Post/Get configuration====
----
Post/Get allows you to perform action requests by writing them in the URL after your device’s IP address. Go to the:
* '''Services → Input/Output → Post/Get''';
* '''Enable''' Post/Get '''(1)''';
* '''Set a username (2)''' and '''password (3)''';
* '''Save''' and '''apply changes (4)''';

[[File:IO_post_get.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|1004x1004px]]

===RUT 1===
----
This section contains information on how to configure the RUT1 device. A guide on how to [https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/wikibase/index.php?title=Domnev&oldid=97979#I.2FO_Juggler_configuration configure I/O Juggler] can be found above.
=====Actions (Public IP) configuration=====
----
Navigate to '''Services → Input/Output → I/O Juggler''' and create an Action instance.

# Type '''(1)''' - '''Script''';
# Specify path '''(2)''' - you can choose between '''specifying''' the '''script path''' or '''uploading''' a '''script file''' directly;
# Script file '''(3)''' - depending on what you have chosen in the field above, you will be asked to enter a '''script directory''' or '''upload a script''' file;
# Save and apply changes '''(4)'''

'''Note:''' Fields that are not indicated can be left as defaults.

[[File:IO juggler script conf.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|1004x1004px]]

A script example can be seen below:
<pre>#!/bin/sh

curl -X GET "http:///84.XX.XXX.XX/cgi-bin/io_state?username=YOUR_USERNAME&password=YOUR_PASSWORD&pin=dout1&state=on"

exit 0</pre>

'''Note''': Replace '''YOUR_USERNAME''' and '''YOUR_PASSWORD''' with your POST/GET created username and password.

=====Actions (HTTP) configuration=====
----
Navigate to '''Services → Input/Output → I/O Juggler''' and create an Action instance.

# Type '''(1)''' - '''HTTP''';
# Method '''(2)''' - '''GET''';
# URL '''(3)''' - Enter your '''POST/GET URL''';
# Save and apply changes '''(4)'''

'''Note''': Fields that are not indicated can be left as defaults.

[[File:HTTP IO.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|1104x1104px]]

'''Note''': Replace '''YOUR_USERNAME''' and '''YOUR_PASSWORD''' with your Post/Get created username and password.

More information about '''POST/GET''' command syntax [[RUT955_Mobile_Utilities#Post.2FGet|here]].

==I/O control via RMS VPN==
If having a public IP is not an option, RMS VPN could be used as an alternative to access your device over the internet. [https://teltonika-networks.com/lt/about-us/introducing-rms-vpn-service/ RMS VPN] is a service designed for remote efficient, low-cost management of large-scale networks. In contrast to point-to-point VPN services, RMS VPN enables the instant creation of encrypted VPN tunnels for secure access to multiple endpoints.
===RMS VPN configuration===
----
A guide on how to set up an RMS VPN hub can be found [https://youtu.be/dfAudZR2wPY here].

[[File:RMS VPN IO config.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|704x704px]]

Both RUT1 and RUT2 have to be added to the RMS VPN Hub.

====Script====
----
Adjust the script accordingly to the RMS VPN Hub's assigned IP for RUT2. [https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/wikibase/index.php?title=Domnev&oldid=98293#Actions_configuration_2| Script example] can be found above.

==Results==

If configured correctly, you should be able to see that the RUT1 Input 1 state is being changed to high

as well as RUT2 Output.
