Configuration overview and prerequisites

Before we begin, let's overview 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 high to change Output state to high on a RUT2.

Prerequisites:

• Two RUT955 routers (one of them with SIM card inserted);
• An end device (PC, Laptop, Tablet, Smartphone) for configuration;

If you have familiarized yourself with the configuration scheme and have all of the devices in order, you can start configuring your routers using instructions provided in this section.
