8.1 Screw mounting
The four mounting lugs provided at the housing allow mounting on even and stable
underground. The mounting material is not included and must be selected according to the underground.
Mounting the device using screws
How to mount the router to an even underground:
The underground is level (make even if required) and sufficiently stable.
You have four suitable screws (max. diameter 4 mm), four suiting washers
and, if required, four suiting dowels.
If the underground is not level, it might be compensated if required
(e.g. by shimming with washers) to avoid that a mounting lug breaks
off if it is folded too much during fastening.
1. Remove a possibly pre-installed DIN rail adapter.
2. Mark the four bore holes using the device or the specified dimensions
on the underground.
Do not forget to provide sufficient space under and above the router
for connecting the necessary cables. The cables must not be bended
excessively. The space may be reduced when using angular
connectors.

3. Drill the four mounting bores using a suitable drill bit in the required
diameter into the underground.
4. Screw the router against the underground at all four mounting lugs
with a wahser under the screw head.
The router is now readily mounted.
8.2 DIN rail mounting
A DIN rail adapter is provided for DIN rail mounting. Depending on the space available in the switch cabinet, the adapter may be inserted into the groove at the back
or at the side (more space in width or depth). To do this, the fastening screws must
be untightened slightly, the adapter must be slid in the other groove and the fastening screws must be tightened again (take care to re-install the adapter with the
spring facing up).
The four mounting lugs may be broken off without any tools at the rated breaking
point, if required.
Mounting the device to the DIN rail
How to mount the router to a DIN rail:
1. Place the device at the DIN rail Hook the upper DIN rail groove into
place behind the upper edge of the DIN rail.
2. Fold down the device perpendicular to the DIN rail until the lower
DIN rail groove latches in the DIN rail.
The router is now readily mounted.
Removing the device from the DIN rail
How to uninstall the router from a DIN rail in a switch cabinet:
The power supply of the switch cabinet is switched off and secured against
being switched on accidentally.
All connectors at the device are disconnected.
1. Push the device slightly down to compress the retaining spring and
swing it away from the DIN rail.
2. Un-hook the device and take it off perpendicularly to the DIN rail.

Connecting a PC
How to connect the router to a PC via a network cable.
The power supply is disabled.
You will need a Cat 5 network patch cable
You will need a network card in the PC.
1. Locate the RJ-45 socket of the network card at the PC.
2. Plug one end of the network cable into the RJ45 socket of the PC,
and the other end into the ETH 1 socket of the router.
The router is connected to the PC with this.
How to configure the router
The device is connected to the PC.
The power supply of the device is enabled and the device is ready for
operation (Power LED is illuminated green).
You have the required access rights to change the IP address of the
network card to which the router is connected.
1. Make sure that the DHCP client is enabled for the PC (Obtain an IP
address automatically).
The integrated DHCP server of the router will then allocate an address
from the according address range to your network card.
➢
Alternatively, you can change the IP address of the network card to
which the device is connected to an address that starts with
192.168.1. Do not use the address 192.168.1.1 here. This is the
factory default IP address of the device. For example, use 192.168.1.2
as IP address for the network card in your PC.
2. Open a web browser and enter the URL "http://192.168.1.1" into the
address bar.
The browser loads the start page of the router.
➢
If you see the message in your browser window that the page with
this address cannot be found, follow the following steps: Check,
whether the device is supplied with power. If yes, most probably a
wrong IP address is configured in the device. Press the reset key three
times within two seconds and repeat this instruction from step 2.
A dialogue will prompt you to enter a user name and password for
authentication.

10 Operating Principle
This chapter describes how to operate and configure the router.
There are different options for configuration and operation:
• Via a web-based interface (web interface). The web interface itself is
displayed and operated using a web browser. Operation via web interface
and access via HTTPS protocol are described in the following.
• Via a command line interface (CLI) Configuration and operation via command
line are described in detail in the online help of the router.
• Via a configuration file (binary or ASCII). Configuration and operation via a
configuration file are described in detail in the online help of the router.
Profiles are used for all types of configuration. The basic handling of these profiles
are described at the end of this section.
10.1 Operation via the web interface
The web interface allows easy configuration using a web browser. All
functions can be configured via the web interface. The operation is mostly
self-explanatory. The web interface also provides an inline help feature, which
describes the meaning of possible settings The inline help is displayed by
selecting the button "Display help text" in the title bar besides the language
selection. An online help is available for more detailed explanation. It can be
opened using links in the inline help.
We urgently recommend to enable inline help for the first
configurations to allow a quick and flawless configuration. If the inline
help is enabled during configuration, all unsaved changes on this page
will be lost.
Access to the Web Interface
How to access the web interface basically.
The device is ready for operation and you have access to it (refer to
Commissioning section).
1. Start the web browser and enter the IP address into the address bar.
The factory default IP address is 192.168.1.1.
A login screen will prompt you to enter the user name and the
password for authentication.
Due to reasons of security, the session will be terminated after 15
minutes of inactivity and you need to login again.
2. Enter the user name and the password and click OK.
ECR
Operating Principle
37
The default settings of the web interface are as follows:
the user name is "insys", the password is "icom".
The start page of the web interface is displayed.
3. Use the menu on the left side to select the menu item, in which you
want to change settings.
4. Enter the required settings.
5. Click on the button OK on the according configuration page to save
the settings in the profile.
Consider the information in the profile section about the effectivity of
configurations made.
La nguage selection in the web interface
How to change the language in the web interface.
The device is ready for operation and you have access to the web interface.
1. Select in the title bar the button for German or for English.
The web interface is displayed in the selected language then.
Logging out from the web interface
How to log off from the web interface. This prevents unauthorised access
after completing the configuration.
The device is ready for operation and you have access to the web interface.
1. Select in the title bar the button (Logout).
You will be logged out from the web interface and returned to the
login screen.
A session will also be terminated after 15 minutes of inactivity (default
setting) due to security reasons.
Operating Principle
ECR
38
10.2 Access via HTTPS Protocol
The web interface also allows a secure configuration using the HTTPS
protocol. The HTTPS protocol allows an authentication of the server (i.e. the
router) as well as an encryption of the data transmission.
10.2.1 Authentication via the device-individual certificate/key
combination
The router will be authenticated via self-certified device-individual
certificate/key combination by default. In case of a first access via the HTTPS
protocol, the browser indicates that the router uses an invalid security
certificate. The certificate is not trusted, because the CA (certification
authority) certificate is unknown. You can ignore this warning and (depending
on browser and operating system) add an exception for this server or establish
the secure connection to this server nevertheless.
We recommend to download the CA certificate CA_INSYS_Router.pem from
the firmware page (http://www.insys-icom.com/firmware/) and import it into
your browser, to approve INSYS MICROELECTRONICS as certification
authority. Proceed for this as described in the documentation of your browser.
If INSYS MICROELECTRONICS is stored as certification authority in your
browser and you access the device again via the HTTPS protocol, the browser
indicates again that an invalid security certificate is used. The certificate is not
trusted, because the Common Name of the certificate differs from your input
in the address bar of the browser. The browser indicates that a different
device answers under this URL. The Common Name of the certificate consists
of the MAC address of the router, where the colons are replaced by
underscores. You can ignore this warning and (depending on browser and
operating system) add an exception for this server or establish the secure
connection to this server nevertheless.
In order to avoid this browser warning as well, you must enter the Common
Name of the router to be accessed into the address bar of your browser. The
Common Name must be connected with the IP address of the device that the
URL leads to the correct device. You can find out the general name (Common
Name) by downloading and viewing the certificate from the device. The
proceeding for this depends on your browser. The proceeding for setting up
the link depends on your operating system.
• Editing of /etc/hosts (Linux/Unix)
• Editing of C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (Windows XP/7/8/10)
• Configuring your own DNS server
For further information, refer to the documentation of your operating system.
ECR
Operating Principle
39
10.2.2 Authentication via an own certificate structure
Alternatively, it is also possible to use an own certificate structure and upload
a self-generated certificate/key combination to the router to use this for the
access via an HTTPS connection.
You need to upload your self-generated certificate/key combination in the
certificate manager of the router first (menu Administration -> Certificates).
Then, this certificate/key combination must be selected when configuring the
web interface access via HTTPS (menu Administration -> Web interface).

10.3 Profiles and Profile Handling
The configuration of the router is called profile. Several profiles ca n be stored on
one device so that the configuration of a device can be changed quickly.
10.3.1 Term definitions
The following terms are to be distinguished:
• Running profile: the current configuration of the router which is used
for operation at the moment
• Stored profile: one of several possible profiles that are stored on the
router by the user
• Opened profile: the profile that is currently displayed in the web
interface (or CLI) for editing
Simple applications do not require the use of more than one profile. However, the
router allows many applications by using several profiles. From risk-free testing of
modified configurations up to time- or event-triggered switching of different profiles, there are almost no limits for your application.
If the running profile differs from the opened profile, this will be indicated by the
appearance of a blinking gear symbol with the button "Activate profile".
Following an intentional or unintentional restart of the router (e.g. power supply in-
terruption), the previously running profile will continue to run and the last activated
profile will be opened again. If they differ, the button with the gear symbol
blinks again.
10.3.2 Working with one profile
If only one profile is used, the current (opened) profile can be configured in the web
interface. Settings made in the opened profile are stored in this profile with a click
on the button "OK". They will not become effective in the running profile with this.
If the current profile has been modified, the blinking gear symbol appears in
the title bar. A click on the button with the blinking gear symbol activates the
opened profile, i.e. it becomes the running profile and the modifications of the
router configuration become effective. The gear symbol will disappear.
Figu re 11: Profile handling – activating configuration modifications
ECR
Operating Principle
41
10.3.3 Using several profiles
The versatile possible applications of the router suggest the use of several profiles.
The following sections describe the profile handling.
10.3.3.1 Storing a profile
Settings made in the opened profile are stored in this profile with a click on the but-
ton "OK". They will not become effective in the running profile with this. They become only effective if the opened profile is activated, i.e. made the running profile.
10.3.3.2 Activating a profile
A click on the button with the blinking gear symbol in the title bar activates the
opened profile, i.e. it becomes the running profile.
A stored profile can be activated and opened in the "Administration" menu on the
"Profiles" page by clicking the button with the gear symbol behind the respec-
tive profile.
10.3.3.3 Opening a profile for editing
A stored profile can be opened in the "Administration" menu on the "Profiles" page
by clicking the button with the folder symbol behind the respective profile.
10.3.3.4 Creating a profile
A new profile can be created from:
• the running profile
• stored profiles
• the default settings
For this, you need to make the correspondent selection in the "Administration"
menu on the "Profiles" page behind "Create profile from". The new profile will be
created with a click on the button "OK" and it appears in the list of profiles.
The profile can then be given a descriptive name. It must first be opened to edit it.
10.3.3.5 Exporting a profile
Profiles stored on the router can be exported to the computer, i.e. downloaded in
the "Administration" menu on the "Profiles" page.
A click on the button for the binary file download behind the respective profile
downloads the profile as a binary file. This is recommended to archive the profile or
transmit it to another router, e.g. a backup device.
A click on the button for the ASCII file download behind the respective profile
downloads the profile as an ASCII configuration file. This is recommended if the
profile is to be edited manually on the computer.
Operating Principle
ECR
42
10.3.3.6 Importing a profile
Profiles (in binary format) or ASCII configuration files can be uploaded to the router
in the "Administration" menu on the “Profiles" page.
You need to locate the respective file on the computer under "Import profile or
ASCII configuration file" for this. The profile will be uploaded with a click on the
button "OK" and it appears in the respective list.
10.3.3.7 Deleting a profile
A stored profile can be deleted in the "Administration" menu on the "Profiles" page
by clicking the button with the recycle bin symbol behind the respective profile.
10.3.3.8 Comparing two profiles
To show the differences between two profiles, it is possible to compare the default
settings, the running profile and the stored profiles to each other.
For this, you need to select the two profiles to be compared in the "Administration"
menu on the "Profiles" page under "Compare profiles". The different settings of
both profiles are displayed side by side when clicking the button "OK".
Figu re 12: Profile handling – scheme
10.3.4 ASCII Configuration
ASCII configurations are a sequence of commands as they could also be entered in
the CLI. Each line contains a command that modifies the opened profile.
Syntax and parameters can be taken from a downloaded profile in ASCII format for
example. Refer to the CLI description for further information about the syntax.
Commands that affect plug-in cards that are not installed will be taken over to the
profile, but will have no effect.

VPN: Virtual Private Network; logical connections (so-called tunnels) are es-
tablished via existing unsafe connections. The end points of these connections (tunnel ends) and the devices behind can be considered as an
independent logical network. A very high degree of tap - and tamperresistance can be achieved with the encryption of the data transmission via the tunnels and the previous two-way authentication of the
partcipants at this logical network.
WAN: Wide Area Network; a network consisting of computers, which are lo-
cated far away from each other.
WAN group: Defines a collection of WAN interfaces that can be started or
stopped in parallel.
WAN interface: An interface that serves to connect the local network (or one of
the local networks) with a superordinate network.
WAN chain: Defines a WAN by arranging WAN interfaces or WAN groups in a se-
quence.
