===Two-Factor Authentication===
  −
----
  −
Firstly, before using Task Manager, your account must have [[Teltonika ID|Two-Factor Authentication]] enabled.
  −
  −
This can be done by navigating to your RMS Account settings and then the Security page. Any Authentication type (other than None) is viable.
  −
  −
Once Two-Factor authentication is enabled, you can head over to Devices → Management → Task Manager and start creating new task groups.

==Configuration Examples==
 +
 
 +
===Setting Mobile Data Limit===
 +
----
 +
In this example, we will set mobile data limit on SIM1 interface. We will achieve this by creating new Task group in RMS Task Manager and using Command as a task type.
 +
 
 +
*Create a new task group by clicking '<nowiki/>'''ADD NEW TASK GROUP'''' button inside Task Manager configuration window.
 +
*Define Task group name, select Command as a task type on the first task and insert the following text into Command field:
 +
''uci set quota_limit.mob1s1a1.enabled='1'''
 +
*Click '<nowiki/>'''ADD ADDITIONAL TASK'''' button at<nowiki/> the bottom of the window to add a second task, make settings identical to the first task and insert the following command into the Command field (this will set the mobile limit to 2GB or 2048MB):
 +
''uci set quota_limit.mob1s1a1.data_limit='2048'''
 +
*Add another task with identical setti<nowiki/>ngs and insert the following text into the Command field (this will set the period of the data limit to 1 day:
 +
''uci set quota_limit.mob1s1a1.period='1'''
 +
*Add another task with identical setti<nowiki/>ngs and insert the following text into the Command field (this will commit the changes and restart the mobile interface):
 +
''uci commit && ifdown mob1s1a1 && ifup mob1s1a1''
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Here is a review of all 4 tasks in this task group:

===Installing Additional Packages===
 +
----
 +
In this example, we will install an additional package to the device using opkg commands as well as generate and download a log file to see if package was installed successfully. For this example, we will install DNP3 package.
 +
*Create a new task group by clicking '<nowiki/>'''ADD NEW TASK GROUP'''' button inside Task Manager configuration window.
 +
* Define Task group name, select Command as a task type on the first task and insert the following text into Command field:
 +
''opkg update''
 +
*Set Timeout to 30 seconds, since updating package repository might take longer than the default 10 seconds.
 +
* Add "1" to acceptable codes, since while updating repositories, some links might be unavailable, this is done to avoid getting an error message while executing a task. Alternatively, you can uncheck "Stop task group on failure" box to achieve the same result.
 +
*Configuration of the first task should look like the following image:
 +

 +
 
 +
*Click '''ADD ADDITIONAL TASK''' button at the bottom of the window to add a second task, once again select Command as a task type and insert the following text into command field:
 +
''opkg install dnp3 >> /tmp/opkglog.log''
 +
*This will install the package as well as save the installation logs to the defined log file.
 +
*Set the timeout to 30 seconds, since the installation process can take longer than the default 10 seconds.
 +
*Second task configuration should look like the following image:
 +
[[File:RMS manual Task manager configuration example package task2 v1.png]]
 +
*Now we will download the generated log file to read the logs of installation.
 +
*Click '''ADD ADDITIONAL TASK''' button at the bottom of the window to add a second task, this time, select Download file as a task type and inser the following path to the '''File path in device''' field:
 +
''/tmp/opkglog.log''
 +
*Configuration of the third task should look like the following image:
 +
