===SMS by HTTP POST/GET===
----
It is possible to read and send SMS messages by using a valid '''HTTP POST/GET''' syntax. Use a web browser or any other compatible software to submit '''HTTP POST/GET''' strings to the router. The router must be connected to a GSM network when using the '''Send SMS''' feature.

'''youripaddress''' - router's LAN IP address; '''username''' - router's login admin user name; '''password''' - router's login password; '''number''' - SMS message index number or recipient's phone number (phone number must contain country code. Phone number format is: 00{COUNTRY_CODE} {RECEIVER_NUMBER}, e.g., 0037062312345 (370 is country code and 62312345 is receiver's phone number)); '''text''' - SMS message text
 
==Email to SMS==
 
Email to SMS is a function that checks your email’s inbox at the specified frequency and, if it finds any new received emails with a specific subject, it converts them to SMS messages.
 
'''NOTE''': all POP3 server email messages from inbox will be deleted.

      <td>Enable</td>
      <td>yes {{!}} no; Default: '''no'''</td>

    <tr>
      <td>POP3 server</td>
      <td>host {{!}} ip; Default: " "</td>
      <td>Your email service provider's POP3 server address. If you don't know this address, simply look it up online</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>Server port</td>
        <td>integer [0..65535]; Default: " "</td>
        <td>Server authentication port. As with POP3 server, your email service provider's POP3 port can be looked up online</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>User name</td>
        <td>string; Default: " "</td>
        <td>Your email account’s user name</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Password</td>
      <td>string; Default: " "</td>
      <td>Your email account’s password</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>Secure connection (SSL)</td>
        <td>yes {{!}} no; Default: '''no'''</td>
        <td>'''SSL''' is a protocol for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL uses a cryptographic system that uses two keys to encrypt data − a public key known to everyone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>Check email every</td>
        <td>time; Default: '''1 minute'''</td>
        <td>Time interval to check email inbox</td>
    </tr>
</table>
 
You may have noticed that there is no option where you can specify recipient's phone number. The reason for that is that '''Email to SMS''' doesn't forward all emails, only the ones that are meant to be forwarded. Only emails with the recipient's phone number in the subject will be forwarded (to the number specified in the subject). Phone number must contain country code. Phone number format is: 00{COUNTRY_CODE} {RECEIVER_NUMBER}, e.g., 0037062312345 (370 is country code and 62312345 is receiver's phone number)
 
==Scheduled SMS==
 
'''Scheduled SMS''' allows you to periodically send automated SMS messages to a specified number. Scheduled messages are managed in rule form, i.e., similar to '''SMS Utilities'''. Therefore, to configure a new Scheduled Message, we must first create a rule. To create a new rule, type in a phone number in the '''Phone number''' field located in the '''Scheduled Messages Configuration''' section and press the '''Add''' button located next to it.
 
After this you will be redirected to the '''Scheduled Messages Configuration''' window.
 
===Scheduled Messages Configuration===
----
'''Scheduled messages''' provides you with the possibility to set up a rule that sends SMS messages to specified recipients periodically. To create a new rule, enter the recipient's Phone number and Message sending interval and click the "Add" button. The new rule will appear in the "Messages to send" table, but will be disabled and unconfigured. To configure your rule, simply click the "Edit" button located next to it.

The information in this page is updated in accordance with firmware version RUT2XX_R_00.01.14.7.

Notice: This device has entered it's EOL (End of Life) cycle. For more information, visit our EOL policy here. Temporarily, some content in this page might not match features found in firmware listed above.

Summary

The SMS Gateway service is used to set up various SMS related functions, such SMS control via HTTP Post/Get and automated operations such as Scheduled SMS, Email to SMS and SMS Forwarding to HTTP, Email, SMS.

This chapter of the user manual provides an overview of the SMS Gateway page for RUT230 devices.

Post/Get

The Post/Get Configuration section is used to turn ON and configure SMS related post/get settings. When the function is enabled, it provides you with the possibility to perform SMS related action requests by writing them in the URL field of your web browser.

The figure below is an example of the Post/Get Configuration page and the table below provides information on fields contained in that page:

Field Value Description
Enable yes | no; default: no Turns SMS post/get on or off.
User name string; default: user1 Username used for authorization when sending post/get requests.
Password string; default: user_pass Password used for authorization when sending post/get requests.


SMS Post/Get usage examples

Use a web browser or any other compatible software to send HTTP POST/GET strings to the router. The router must be connected to a GSM network when using the Send SMS feature. Below you will find a table with possible actions and examples on how to use them:

Action Post/get URL examples
View mobile messages list http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/sms_list?username=user1&password=user_pass
Read mobile message http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/sms_read?username=user1&password=user_pass&number=1
Send mobile message to a single number http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/sms_send?username=user1&password=user_pass&number=0037060000001&text=testmessage
Send mobile message to a group http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/sms_send?username=user1&password=user_pass&group=group_name&text=testmessage
View mobile messages total http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/sms_total?username=user1&password=user_pass
Delete mobile message http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/sms_delete?username=user1&password=user_pass&number=1
  • 192.168.1.1 - router's IP address, replace it with your LAN IP or WAN IP (when connecting remotely)
  • SMS related post/get commands. Possible values are:
    • sms_list - view all SMS messages in storage
    • sms_read - read a single SMS message by specified SMS index (number)
    • sms_send - send an SMS message to specified number
    • sms_total - display SMS storage statistics
    • sms_delete - delete a single SMS message by specified SMS index (number)
  • & - separation symbol. After specifying the SMS command, other parameters must be separated by an ampersand (&) symbol
  • username - SMS POST/GET configuration user name
  • password - SMS POST/GET configuration password
  • number - SMS message index or (depending on context) recipient's phone number. SMS message indexes can be viewed with the sms_list command.
    Correct phone number format is:
    • 00 - number must be preceded by two zeros
    • <country_code> - the next following element is the number holder's country code
    • <receivers_number> - phone number of the recipient

    For example, a valid number would be 0037012345678 (370 is country code and 12345678 is the receiver's phone number, all preceded by 00)

  • text - SMS message text

Email to SMS

Email to SMS is a function that connects to your email account and checks its inbox at the specified frequency. If it finds any new received emails with a specific subject (phone number in email subject), it sends the body of the email as an SMS message(s) to the recipient specified in the email subject field.

Important note: all POP3 server email messages from inbox will be deleted when using this service.

Field Value Description
Enable yes | no; default: no Turns Email to SMS on or off.
POP3 server host | ip; default: none Email service provider's POP3 server address (can be looked up online).
Server port integer [0..65535]; default: none Email service provider's POP3 server port (can be looked up online).
User name string; default: none Email account username, used in authentication when connecting to the email client.
Password string; default: none Email account password, used in authentication when connecting to the email client.
Secure connection (SSL) yes | no; default: no SSL is a protocol for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL uses a cryptographic system that uses two keys to encrypt data − a public key known to everyone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message.
Max. email symbol count integer; default: 160 Limit of symbols that can be contained in the email body of text. Emails that contain more symbols than it is specified in this field will be ignored.
Check email every time [1 minute to 15 days]; default: 1 minute Email inbox check interval.

Additional note: you may have noticed that there is no option where you can specify the recipient's phone number. As mentioned earlier, Email to SMS doesn't forward all emails, just the ones that are meant to be forwarded. Only emails with the recipient's phone number in the subject will be forwarded to SMS.

Correct phone number format is:

  • 00 - number must be preceded by two zeros
  • <country_code> - the next following element is the number holder's country code
  • <receivers_number> - phone number of the recipient

For example, a valid number would be 0037000000000 (370 is country code and 00000000 is the receiver's phone number, all preceded by 00).

Scheduled SMS

Scheduled SMS allows you to set up the router to periodically send SMS messages to a specified number. Scheduled messages are managed in rule form. Therefore, to configure a new Scheduled Message, we must first create a rule. To create a new rule, type in a phone number in the Phone number field located in the Scheduled Messages Configuration section and click the Add button located next to it.

After this you will be redirected to the Scheduled Messages Configuration window where you can configure all parameters related to the rule. Once you save the configuration, you will be redirected back to the Scheduled SMS page, where you will see your new rule in the Messages To Send section:

Scheduled Messages Configuration

The figure below is an example of the Scheduled Messages Configuration window and the table below provides information on the field contained in that window:

Field Value Description
Enable yes | no; default: no Turns the rule on or off.
Recipient's phone number phone number; default: none Phone number of the recipient that will receive the scheduled messages.
Message text string; default: none The message that will be sent.
Message sending interval time; default: Day, hour 1, minute 1 The frequency at which scheduled messages will be sent.

Auto Reply

Auto reply is a function that responds to received SMS messages with a user defined automatic response. The figure below is an example of the Auto Reply section and the figure below provides information on the fields contained in that section:

Field Value Description
Enable yes | no; default: no Turns Auto Reply on or off.
Reply SMS Utilities rules yes | no; default: no When enabled, the router will also reply to messages that trigger SMS Utilities rules.
Don't save received messages yes | no; default: no When enabled, the router deletes all received SMS messages.
Message text string; default: none Text that will be sent in the automatic response.
Mode Everyone | Listed numbers; default: Everyone Indicates whether the router should reply to messages from all recipients or just the specified numbers.
Recipient's phone number phone number; default: none Phone number(s) that will trigger Auto Reply. To add multiple numbers, click the symbol.
This field becomes visible if the chosen Mode is "From listed numbers only".

SMS Forwarding

The SMS Forwarding tab contains three sections:

Each of which can be used to set up forwarding of incoming SMS message to either HTTP, email or another phone number.

SMS Forwarding To HTTP

Sender's phone number phone number; default: none Phone number(s) that will qualify for forwarding. To add multiple numbers, click the symbol. This field becomes visible when the "Mode" field value is set to 'From listed numbers'.

Forwarding To HTTP example

This example will atempt to explain how to use the data fields in SMS forwarding to HTTP configuration. The fields in question are Number & Message value name and Extra data pair 1 & 2 fields. The figure below is the configuration we'll be using for this example:

If you configure the router as seen in the image above and send an SMS message to the router containing the text Hello!, from the number +37000000000, the specified server should reiceve an encoded query string that looks like this: 

Sender=%2B37000000000&Text=Hello%21&Name=RUT230&Code=RUT230%2000E000

The & symbol separates the the key-value pairs, while certain characters (like +, ! and the space symbol) are encoded in UTF-8. When decoded it might look something like this: 

Sender: +37000000000
Text: Hello!
Name: RUT230
Code: RUT230 00E000
