Summary

{{{name}}} routers have an extensive amount of various SMS control utilities. SMS Utilities can be used to set/get configurations, monitor and issue commands to the router.

SMS Utilities

Default Rules

The SMS Utilities section contains a list of rules that perform certain actions when they are activated by SMS messages.

The entire list contains 17 rules but you are also be provided with the possibility to configure custom ones or edit the existing rules.

All default configuration options are listed below:

  • Reboot
  • Send_status
  • I/O set
  • I/O status
  • SSH_access (on)
  • SSH_access (off)
  • Web_access (on)
  • Web_access (off)
  • Firstboot
  • Fw_upgrade
  • RMS status
  • Rms connect
  • Rms action (on)
  • Rms action (off)
  • Monitoring status
  • More

    • Execution

    To execute a rule, just send an SMS message to the router‘s SIM card number with the rule's SMS Text, e.g., if you send a message with the text “reboot”, the router will reboot if the selected Authorization method is “No authorization”. However, if there is an Authorization method present you will need to include the “Authorization key” in the text message. This “Authorization key” depends on the chosen Authorization method, i.e., if the method is “By serial”, the “Authorization key” is the router’s serial number, if the method is “By router admin password”, the “Authorization key” is the router’s admin password.

    The "Authorization key” must precede the activation text and they must be separated by a space symbol. For example, if the chosen Authorization method is “By router admin password” and the password is “admin01”, the entire message should look like this: “admin01 reboot”. The same applies to “By serial” authorization. By default authorization for SMS utilities are set "By router admin password".

    Rule Overview and editing

    Every default SMS rule can be edited to your liking. If none of the rules suit your purposes, just click the Edit button next to any SMS Utilities rules. This guide will contain information on editing every single SMS Utilities rule.

    Above is an example of what SMS Configuration General and Authorization settings windows looks like, specifically, SMS Configuration for the Reboot rule. Below is a table with detailed explanations on how to configure the rule and what each of the fields mean. To avoid redundancy, screenshots for the other rules will not be provided, since the structures, syntax and the overall look of the configuration windows for each rule are very similar. Instead, only tables containing information on how to edit each rule will be provided.

    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)

    Call Utilities

    Just like SMS Utilities, Call Utilities provide you with the possibility to issue certain commands to the router from your mobile phone. The list of possible rules is of course shorter because you can only make one type of call. Keep that in mind when creating Call Utilities rules because one call will trigger all of the enabled rules at once.

    Call Configuration

    To make a new rule, select what Action you want to make and press Add button.

    Every Call rule can be edited to your liking, just click the Edit button. This guide will contain information on editing every single Call Utilities rule.
