5.3 External connections
5.3.1 Interfaces and connectors
5.3.1.1 GSM antenna connector
SMA antenna connector placed on front panel is used to connect external GSM. To establish connection with GSM network an external antenna must be used. Type of antenna depends on GSM coverage. In good circumstances (level of received signal is high) use antenna which is attached in the package. If range of GSM is low or none, an outdoor directional/omnidirectional or indoor (for instance in place where GSM range is sufficient) antenna should be used.
Note: If there is no antenna connected to SMA connector, the connection with GSM network is impossible.
5.3.1.2 Modem serial port, either full RS232/RS485
Serial RS232/RS485 (through RJ-45 connector) is placed on front panel of modem and it can be configured for special use as an option for customer.

7.2.6 Ports configuration
You are able to set port settings under RS232/RS485 Port page. There are 3 configurable ports: /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyACM0 and /dev/ttyS1 or /dev/ttyUSB0 (depending on modem version).
Every port can be set to different mode. On /dev/ttyS0 you can set terminal, ModBus gateway or NTRIP mode. Two other ports can work as modem port (modem control and modem data) or SMS receiving port (see also: SMS Actions section).
Every port can also be set to forwarding mode that allows user to forward it to TCP/UDP port (as server or client). Port /dev/ttyS0 can also be forwarded to modem control or modem data port-in that case no other mode can be set on that port.
Setting certain modes on /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1 (LTE modem variant only) enables setting port parameters: baud rate, data bits, parity checking and protocol. If parameter is inactive that means that user can't control it in currently set mode.

Dynamic DNS is a service which allows user to make your device available under specific www address regardless of its IP changes. In order to do that you must create an account on one of web pages that are supported by ELT modem (currently DynDNS.org or No-IP.com). After creating account, please enter necessary information in Dynamic DNS tab of www configuration: your service provider, in case of DynDNS its type, username, password, host name and two intervals. Update interval is time between two checks whether IP address had changed. Forced update interval is time between updating IP data regardless of IP change. Please last two fields empty to use default value if you're not sure what to input there.

7.2.11 Access control
First section of Access Control tab allows you to configure SSH protocol. You can turn it on or off, set on which port and interfaces (also OpenVPN and IPsec tunnels) it should be accessible. You can also toggle logging via SSH as root and change/delete passwords/keys for root and service user. Remember to save whole configuration after changing password by pressing Save Configuration button from main menu. Deleting password means that it won't be needed to log on. When logging via SSH, key authentication has higher priority than password. That means that user with authorized key won't be prompted for a password and user without key will be able to login using password. You can paste multiple keys into SSH root key and SSH service key fields.
ATTENTION: Service account is used to upgrade firmware. Turning SSH off will disable firmware upgrades.
You can generate necessary keys directly on modem. Press the Generate button and wait for a while-the process can take few minutes. You should not change settings or switch tabs then. After the generation the message will be displayed. Public key will be automatically pasted into the keys field (if the field wasn't empty before pressing the button, its contents will be saved, the newly generated key will appear first on the list). From now you will be able to download private and public keys by pressing Get private

key and Get public key buttons. To login using the key under Linux, you have to download private key, change its name to id_rsa and put it in /home/user/.ssh folder.
In WWW config access section you can toggle HTTP/HTTPS access www configuration and change ports and interfaces (OpenVPN and IPsec tunnels also) on which they will be available. You can also change password for www configuration (the change will be immediate, no saving configuration is needed). For security reasons disabling both HTTP and HTTPS is not possible.

7.2.12 Open VPN
You can connect your modem to a VPN network or create your own one using OpenVPN software. It is possible to create up to four VPN connections (tunnels). To view and change settings of any of tunnels select it from Tunnel configuration list under OpenVPN tab. Then choose if modem should be server or client and connection type: tun or tap. Tun connection can be single- or multiclient. Depending on what you choose here, you will later need to enter client/server IP addresses or network and netmask.
If the device should be server, please enter port on which it should listen for connections (the default VPN port is 1194, remember to open the port you chose under the firewall tab). Next, please select network device on which the connection should be held: eth (external RJ45 port) or ppp (connection via mobile network). It is also necessary to choose network protocol: TCP or UDP (use the second option if you are not sure what to choose). For tun mode user should also enter server and client IPs (we advise you to use addresses from 10.x.x.x pool). For tap mode please enter VPN sub network address and net mask (for example 10.1.0.0 and 255.255.255.0). In most cases, your device will reserve first IP address from the pool (that is 10.1.0.1 if you are using
10.1.0.0 network).
If the device is set into client mode, in addition to settings same as those for server, you should input VPN server's IP in Remote Server IP field and its listening port in the Port field.
After filling in all necessary information user should fill in four certificate fields. The certificates should be generated on any PC (see VPN online help for more information). The contents of files should be pasted into appropriate fields of configuration. You can improve security of your VPN connection by entering TLS key into the TLS key field on every device in VPN network.
The last setting is toggling LZO compression (we advise you to enable it to improve network communication) and adding extra configuration parameters in Additional configuration field.

7.2.13 Ipsec static/Ipsec mobile
IPsec is group of internet protocols that enables user to create safe connection between devices. To configure such connection on ELT modem you need to go through three tabs of configuration: Tunnels, Mobile Clients, Keys and Certificates. First of all, you need to enable IPsec under Tunnels tab. Below this option there is a combo box that enables you to switch between different tunnel configurations. If you want to enable specific tunnel, please select Enable tunnel checkbox. Then specify network interface on which the connection will be held. It is impossible to discuss all ways to create IPsec connection, so we have described sample configuration below.

Let's say we want to connect two ELT modems with following IP numbers:
123.45.67.1, 123.45.67.2. First option, DPD interval is time after which the connection is closed if the other device is not responding. You can put any value here, we will enter 3600 seconds. Then you have to choose local subnet that will be available on remote side of the connection. It can be single host, network or LAN subnet. Let's say we will be connecting more devices later so we choose network. On first modem we enter following settings: IP=192.168.36.1, Network=192.168.36.0 and Netmask=255.255.255.0. The IP must be set properly according to the network and netmask. Next step is entering remote subnet. The local subnet on first device must match remote subnet on the second device and vice versa. We have specified local subnet on second modem with following settings: IP=192.168.35.1, Network=192.168.35.0, Netmask=255.255.255.0, so on the first modem we enter following remote subnet: Address=192.168.35.0, Netmask=255.255.255.0. After specifying local and remote subnets, you should enter remote gateway which should be other device's IP. In our case we enter 123.45.67.2 on first modem and 123.45.67.1 on second one.
Afterwards we have to define first phase of the proposal. We choose negotiation mode-aggressive is less secure, but faster than main. Next setting is device's identifier. The most common setting is My IP address for PSK authentication and RSA Cert subject for RSA certificates. Now, please choose encryption, hash algorithm and DH key group­they must be the same on both sides of connection. Blowfish encryption is usually the fastest and AES is the slowest but most secure. You can optionally set lifetime of phase 1 or leave the field blank to use default value. The most important setting of phase 1 is choosing authentication method: Pre-shared key is like password, you have to enter the same key on both sides. More sophisticated authentication method is using RSA certificates, but you need to generate certificate and key for every device. You have two options here: either input other device's certificate in Peer certificate field or add CA certificate (we will cover that topic later).

- Slovensko: +421 904 540 707
33
In the second phase of proposal please specify the protocol (ESP is authentication with encryption, AH is authentication only), encryption algorithm, hash algorithm and PFS key group. Please note that you can choose multiple algorithms, but at least one should match on both sides of the connection. The last setting is phase 2 lifetime (leave field empty for using default value).
After configuring all settings remember to save configuration. The configuration of IPsec connection is finished unless you chose to authenticate with RSA certificates and CA certificate. In that case click on Keys and Certificates tab. Here you can add multiple Pre-shared keys and CA certificates. Adding both is similar, so we will explain only adding CA certificates. To add new one, please click on Add new button. Specify Identifier (which is used only for distinguish them in www configuration), paste CA certificate and certificate revoke list. Last field is optional and lets you ban users that shouldn't be allowed to join your network anymore.

IMPORTANT: After filling in fields click Save button and then save whole configuration by clicking Save settings. If you want to delete certificate, choose it from the list, click Delete button and then save whole configuration.
It is possible to create IPsec connection with non-static-IP-devices. In order to do this please click Mobile clients tab. Configuration is similar to the tunnel configuration, but there are less settings (for example there is no PSK field-you should add pre-shared keys for mobile clients in Keys and Certificates tab).
IMPORTANT: When configuring IPsec connection you will sometimes want to add custom routing. This topic is covered in next section.

7.2.14 Generating SSL certificates
In order to use SSL authentication creating few files and copying them into adequate fields under OpenVPN or IPsec tabs of www configuration is needed. This can be done using PC with Linux and openssl installed. There is also Windows version of software available at http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/openssl.htm.
At first we need to create folder, in which all our keys and certificates will be stored. Let's say it will be ~/keys. We create two files in it: list of certificates and file enumerating them:
touch index.txt
echo 00 > serial
and subdirectories, where the certificates and keys will be stored:
mkdir private certs newcerts crl
In order to create certificates, the certificate authority (CA) is needed . It is ,,main'' certificate used to create other certificates. After creating private CA key:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out private/cakey.pem 1024
Warning: please remember the CA password!
The CA certificate is generated:
openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key private/cakey.pem -out cacert.pem
When creating a certificate user has to provide some information like country, state/province, city, company name, e-mail address and common name. The last field is most important, it has to be unique for every device.
After creating CA certificate generation of certificate for every device used is needed.
At first the private key is generated:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out private/device1key.pem
Then we generate certificate request:
openssl req -new -key private/device1key.pem -out device1req.pem
Here user has to enter country, state etc. again. They can be the same as before except the common name. Certificate authority signs the certificate:
openssl ca -notext -in device1req.pem -out device1cert.pem
If certificate will be used on ELT modem, password on private key has to be disabled:
openssl rsa -in private/device1key.pem -out private/device1key.pem_nopass

- Česká republika: +420 228 880 487
- Slovensko: +421 904 540 707
36
The whole process is repeated for every device (unique common names and filenames have to be unique for different devices!).
If IPsec protocol will be used, certain fields in www configuration under
Ipsec/Tunnels tab have to be filled in. Content of device1cert.pem file should be pasted into the Certificate field and contents of device1key.pem_nopass into the Key field.
Peer Certificate field can be filled with another device's certificate file or left empty. In this case the CA certificate has to be provided under Keys and Certificates tab. Contents
of cacert.pem file should be inserted there.
If the OpenVPN protocol will be used, under OpenVPN tab content of cacert.pem has to be pasted into CA cert field, content of device1cert.pem into Server/Client cert field and device1key.pem_nopass into Server/Client private key field. The Diffie­Hellman parameters file has to be created for VPN connection:
openssl dhparam -out dh1024.pem 1024
And its content should be copied into DH PEM field. This file is common for all devices in VPN network.

7.2.15 N2N
N2N is application that enables user to create secure subnetworks like OpenVPN and IPsec, but it is based on P2P connections. User can configure modem to host N2N server (just enable the option and choose port on which it will be available) and up to four tunnels. To configure tunnel choose N2N IP address, local and remote port, netmask and remote IP address. You have to input community name and key (all members of N2N network should have same community name and key. Rest of parameters should be used only by experienced users.
7.2.16 CARP
CARP is a network protocol that allows many devices to be connected into redundancy group which will be available as one device on chosen network address. For example you can choose devices that have IPs 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3 to be available on 192.168.1.115. If one device will stop working, the other one will serve users at shared address. Device that is currently active on shared address is called master and other devices are called backup.

38
If you want to configure CARP, please choose network interface on which CARP client will be available and choose group identifier that will be same on all devices in group-it has to be number from 1 to 255. Enter virtual shared IP address. Advertisement frequency and skew regulate how often devices will be contacting each other. Remember to define up script and down script that will set/delete routings when becoming master/backup.
7.2.17 NTRIP configuration page
One of /dev/ttyS0 port modes is communication with external device using NTRIP protocol. If you decide to use it, it is necessary to set the mode under RS232 Port configuration page. Then, enter settings in NTRIP page. Server address, port and initial position fields are necessary. Username and passwords are optional.
It is also possible to choose data request mode. After entering required data, please click Get List button to download data streams list from the server – it may take a while, please be patient. After downloading the list please select one of data streams.
Attention: Entering initial position is necessary to login to NTRIP server if no external device sending NMEA frames is connected to the S0 port.

7.2.19 GPIO
Settings under GPIO tab in www configuration enable user to configure external input and output GPIO ports. When switching tab to GPIO current pin states is read automatically into eight fields in upper section of the webpage. In whole configuration the following convention is used: the unchecked field represents low state and checked field represents high state. Successful read of GPIO pins states is indicated by ,,OK'' status. In case of error ,,ERROR!'' is displayed. If pins state update is needed, please click Refresh button.
To set initial states of output pins use checkboxes 11,12,13 and 14. They are set when the modem is powered up and when the GPIO configuration is changed and saved.
Section GPIO events allows user to create unlimited number of events on which the state of output pins will be changed. In order to create a new event, click New button and then fill out all necessary fields. The identifier is used to distinguish events. It can be any character string. The event type determines if an event is executed only once (One time) or with determined frequency (Regular). In case of one time event enter UTC date and time of the event. Make sure that real time clock is set correctly on the device. In case of regular event specify time interval between two [consecutive] event executions. Finally choose pin or pins used for the event and what action should be taken (setting high state, setting low state or switching states). Let's assume pins 11,13 was selected

41
and action set to ,,Set HIGH state''. As result at entered time of the event high state will be set on pins 11,13 and on pins 12,14 no action will be taken (previous state will be preserved). An event execution can be also directly tested by clicking Test (current GPIO states will be refreshed automatically).
There is also a possibility to manually operate GPIO pins using HTTP GET
<device_ip>/actions/gpio_action.php request. The following parameters can be
used:
Parameter
Accepted values
cmd
readall, read, write
pins
Any combination of pins 7-14 separated by commas
state
H, L, I, S (high, low, input, switch states)
The readall command requires no additional parameters. However, read and write requires setting pins parameter. write requires setting state parameter. Please keep in mind that you are not able to set state on input pins. Parameters should be provided in webpage address after ‘?’ character typical for complex GET requests. Parameter and its values are separated with = character, i.e. ,,parameter=value'' . Each pair of parameter and value are separated from another with & character (see examples).

Examples of usage are shown below. Prints current state of all ports:
192.168.1.234/actions/gpio_action.php?cmd=readall
Prints current state of physical output number 14:
192.168.1.234/actions/gpio_action.php?cmd=read&pins=14
Sets low state on physical outputs number 11 and 12 (On successful execution no text is printed):

7.4 Firmware update
This chapter describes in few steps how to make upgrade of your modems firmware. Actual number of your modems firmware can be found here: http://x.x.x.x/firmware.php where x.x.x.x is ip adres of your modem (by default it is
192.168.1.234).
You need following files for upgrade and test your upgrade:
plink.exe (putty) pscp.exe (putty) service.key (private key) servicekey.ppk (private key generated for putty) upgrade.bat (upgrade scrypt) upload_img.bat (copy .bin file to modem scrypt) upgrade_20110301.bin (name depends on upgrade date)
Follow next steps to upgrade your firmware:
To start upgrade you need first to upload file upgrade_20110301.bat on your modem
to do this start file upload_img.bat with parameters: file and ip of modem.
upload_img.bat upgrade_20101001.bin 192.168.1.234
Can be done directly in Windows OS (remember about ‘:’ sign in the end)
pscp -scp -i servicekey.ppk -P 65535 [email protected]:
In Linux OS it should be similar:
scp -i service.key -P 65535 upgrade.bin service@IP:
You can start upgrade procedure by starting file
upgrade.bat 192.168.1.234
or on Windows OS:
plink -ssh -i servicekey.ppk -P 65535 [email protected] upgrade
and on Linux OS:
ssh -i service.key -p 65535 [email protected] upgrade
You can also use commands like reboot, delusblog, help, for example to reboot
system:
plink -ssh -i servicekey.ppk -P 65535 [email protected] reboot

7.5 Eltronika Device Manager
Eltronika Device Manager is an application which allows you to find ELT-LAN modems in local area network (LAN) and then restore factory settings by entering their IMEI number. It is particularly useful when you forgot IP number of device and you can't access it by terminal on serial port.
The installation process is pretty simple-you launch .exe file and choose path where to unpack the application. The main window of program consists of table-list of devices available on your network and buttons: Scan, Clear List, Reset and About. First you need to scan the network for devices. It takes few seconds to list all the devices. Please also keep in mind that it takes a while to boot modem so it won't respond immediately after you turn it on.

- Slovensko: +421 904 540 707
51
When the scan is complete you can see list of available devices in the table. You can review information like IP address, MAC address, device name, firmware version and uptime. If you want to restore factory settings on any device on the list, click the Reset button and enter IMEI. Program will send special packet to all devices, but only the one with IMEI you have entered will be affected. If the IMEI is correct and the factory settings have been restored you should see ,,IMEI OK'' in one of cells of last column. This device will now reset to load new settings and after about 1-2 minutes it will confirm that whole operation was successful - you should see then that ,,IMEI OK'' will change to ,,done''.

12.2.1 Directional antennas
Use directional (outdoor or indoor) antennas if signal range is too low or very low. Directional antenna can increase signal level. Using the antenna cannot guarantee sufficient range of signal – it depends on GSM coverage in place where modem is used. It is better to use an antenna which works in higher frequency (GSM1900), but it depends on if GSM1900 signal is transmitted in area of use – if not use antenna for lower frequency (GSM900). If there is no GSM signal any antenna would help.

It is possible that there is no signal in buildings – the antenna in that cases can be mounted on the roof or in a room where signal is sufficient. The antenna can be mounted on an aerial mast (as shown in pictures below) or in other ways. All instructions of mounting an antenna should be given by antenna producer.
If directional antenna is connected by FME connector (shown in picture) You can use FME – SMA converter:

12.2.2 Omnidirectional antennas
In case of weak coverage you can also use omnidirectional antennas. The signal gain of omnidirectional antenna is lower than directional antenna. Still, in most cases this is enough to get proper reception. You can use magnetic base or wall handle antennas, they differ in way of mounting – see pictures below.
