Failover power support (NTC-6200-01 only)

The Intelligent M2M Router includes support for connection of two power sources at the same time. When a PoE Ethernet cable is connected and DC power is also supplied to the DC input jack

of the router, the router will source power exclusively from the PoE source. In the event that power from the PoE cable is lost, the router will automatically switch to source power from the DC

input jack, without affecting the router’s operation. When PoE power is restored, the router automatically switches back to receive power from the PoE input source.

Viewing power source information

You can view the current power input mode in the Advanced status section of the device’s web user interface. This is useful for remotely monitoring the device. You can also use the Software

Development Kit to access this information for advanced purposes (e.g. configuring SMS alerts to inform you of the power status of the router).

To view the router’s power source information, log in to the router and expand the Advanced status box on the status page. See the Status section of this manual for more information on the

status page.

Power consumption

To assist with power consumption planning, the following table summarises average power consumption during the various states of the Intelligent M2M Router under normal usage conditions.

It’s important to note that this table serves as an indication only as the power consumed by the device is affected by many variables including signal strength, network type, and network activity.

Average power consumption figures

STATE POWER CONSUMPTION

Powered on, idle and connected to packet data 1.2W

Powered on, connected to packet data with average load 2.0W

Powered on, connected to packet data with heavy traffic 4.0W

Peak power draw at maximum 3G module transmission power 5.0W

Table 9 - Average power consumption figures

Installing the router

After you have mounted the router and connected a power source, follow these steps to complete the installation process.

1. Connect equipment that requires network access to the Ethernet port of your router. This may be your computer for advanced configuration purposes, or your end equipment which

requires data access via the Intelligent M2M Router. You can connect one device directly, or several devices using a network switch.

If you’re using PoE as the power source, you need to connect any devices via an available data Ethernet port on your PoE power source (be it a PoE network switch or PoE power

injector).

2. Ensure the external power source is switched on and wait 2 minutes for your Intelligent M2M Router to start up. To check the status of your router, compare the LED indicators on

the device with those listed on page 8 of this guide.

ITEM DEFINITION

Data connection

Transparent Bridge (PPPoE) Toggles the transparent bridge function on and off.

Profile name list

Default Sets the corresponding profile to be the default gateway for all outbound traffic except traffic for which there are configured static route rules or profile routing settings.

Status Toggles the corresponding profile on and off. If your carrier supports it, two profile s may be turned on simultaneously.

APN The APN configured for the corresponding profile.

Username The username used to log on to the corresponding APN.

Roaming settings

Allow data roaming

When set to ON, the router will allow local devices to access the Wireless WAN network when the MachineLink 3G is roaming onto a foreign network. When set to OFF, the

router will deny network access to data services when roaming onto a foreign network. This setting is ON by default.

Table 12 - Data connection item details

Connecting to the mobile broadband network

The router supports the configuration of up to six APN profiles; these profiles allow you to configure the settings that the router will use to connect to the 2G/3G network and switch easily

between different connection settings.

For advanced networking purposes, you may activate a maximum of two profiles simultaneously (dependant on network support). When activating two connection profiles, you should avoid

selecting two profiles with the same APN as this can cause only one profile to connect. Similarly, activating two profiles which are both configured to automatically determine an APN can cause a

conflict and result in neither profile establishing a connection. We recommend that the two active connection profiles have differing, manually configured APNs to avoid connection issues and

ensure smooth operation.

Manually configuring a connection profile

To manually configure a connection profile:

1. Click the Edit button corresponding to the Profile that you wish to modify. The data connection profile settings page is displayed.

Setting the router to dial a connection when traffic is detected on specific ports

In some situations, you may wish to have the internet connection disabled except at times when outbound traffic to a particular external host’s port or range of ports is sent to the router. To use

this feature, click Enable dial port filter and enter the port number or list of port numbers separated by commas. When you select this option, all outbound ICMP/TCP/UDP packets to any remote

host on the specified port(s) will trigger the connection to dial. Note that when this feature is enabled, the options to ignore specific packet types are not available.

Figure 23 – Dial on demand - Data activity triggered connection

You can allow Microsoft network awareness (NCSI) traffic through but if you prefer that they do not trigger the connection, click the Ignore Microsoft network awareness (NCSI) traffic toggle key

to set it to ON.

Figure 24 - DIal on demand - Ignore NCSI traffic

Excluding certain packet types from triggering the connection to dial

Depending on your environment, you might prefer to exclude certain types of traffic passing through the router from triggering the data connection. You can tell the router to ignore outbound

TCP, UDP or ICMP packets. When any of these options are checked the router will not dial a connection when that type of outbound destined data packet reaches the router from a locally

connected device.

Figure 25 – Dial on demand - Excluding IP protocols



Excluding certain application types from triggering the connection to dial

Some devices may generate general traffic as a part of normal operation which you may not want to trigger the data connection. You can set the router to ignore Domain Name System (DNS),

Network Time Protocol (NTP) or Microsoft network awareness (NCSI) traffic from devices behind the router. When you check the box for these options, it tells the router to ignore the request from

that application type and will not dial a connection when this data type is received.

SIM security settings

The SIM security settings page can be used for authenticating SIM cards that have been configured with a security PIN.

Unlocking a PIN locked SIM

If the SIM card is locked, you will receive a notice when you access the Status page after which you will be directed to the PIN settings page to enter the PIN. The PIN settings page lists the

status of the SIM at the top of the page.

If you are not redirected to the PIN settings page, to unlock the SIM:

a) Click on the Networking menu from the top menu bar, and then click SIM security settings.

Routing

Static

Static routing is the alternative to dynamic routing used in more complex network scenarios and is used to facilitate communication between devices on different networks. Static routing involves

configuring the routers in your network with all the information necessary to allow the packets to be forwarded to the correct destination. If you change the IP address of one of the devices in the

static route, the route will be broken.

Figure 43 - Static routing list

Some routes are added by default by the router on initialization such as the Ethernet subnet route for routing to a device on the Ethernet subnet.

Adding Static Routes

To add a new route to the static routing list, click the +Add button. The Static routes page appears.

1. In the Route name field, type a name for the route so that it can be identified in the static routing list.

2. From the Network interface drop down list, select the interface for which you would like to create a static route.

3. In the Destination IP address field, enter the IP address of the destination of the route.

4. In the IP subnet mask field, enter the subnet mask of the route.

5. In the Gateway IP address field, enter the IP address of the gateway that will facilitate the route.

6. In the Metric field enter the metric for the route. The metric value is used by the router to prioritise routes. The lower the value, the higher the priority. To give the route the highest

priority, set it to 0.

7. Click the Save button to save your settings.

Port Forwarding

The Port forwarding list is used to configure the Network Address Translation (NAT) rules currently in effect on the router.

Figure 49 – Port forwarding list

The purpose of the port forwarding feature is to allow mapping of inbound requests to a specific port on the WAN IP address to a device connected on the Ethernet interface.

Adding a port forwarding rule

To create a new port forwarding rule:

1. Click the +Add button. The port forwarding settings screen is displayed.

2. Use the Protocol drop down list to select the type of protocol you want to use for the rule. The protocols selections available are TCP, UDP and All.

3. In the Source IP Address field, enter a “friendly” address that is allowed to access the router or a wildcard IP address (0.0.0.0) that allows all IP addresses to access the router.

4. The Source Port Range (From) and (To) fields are used to specify the port(s) on the source side that are to be forwarded. This allows you to send a range of consecutive port

numbers by entering the first in the range in the (From) field and the last in the range in the (To) field. To forward a single port, enter the port in the (From) field and repeat it in the

(To) field.

5. In the Destination network adress field, enter the IP address of the client to which the traffic should be forwarded.

6. The Destination Port Range (From) and (To) fields are used to specify the port(s) on the destination side that are to be forwarded. If the Source port range specifies a single port

then the destination port may be configured to any port. If the Source port range specifies a range of port numbers then the Destination port range must be the same as the Source

port range.

7. Click the Save button to confirm your settings.

DMZ

The Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) allows you to configure all incoming traffic on all protocols to be forwarded to a selected device behind the router. This feature can be used to avoid complex port

forwarding rules, but it exposes the device to untrusted networks as there is no filtering of what traffic is allowed and what is denied.

The DMZ configuration page is used to specify the IP Address of the device to use as the DMZ host.

1. Click the DMZ toggle key to turn the DMZ function ON.

2. Enter the IP Address of the device to be the DMZ host into the DMZ IP Address field.

3. Click the Save button to save your settings.

GRE tunnelling

The Generic Route Encapsulation (GRE) protocol is used in addition to Point-to-Point Tunnelling Protocol (PPTP) to create VPNs (virtual private networks) between clients and servers or between

clients only. Once a PPTP control session establishes the VPN tunnel GRE is used to securely encapsulate the data or payload.

Configuring GRE tunnelling

To configure GRE tunnelling:

1. From the menu bar at the top of the screen, click Networking and then from the VPN section on the left side of the screen, click GRE. The GRE client list is displayed.

Figure 68 - GRE client list

2. Click the +Add button to begin configuring a new GRE tunnelling client profile. The GRE Client Edit screen is displayed.

Figure 69 – GRE client edit

3. Click the Enable GRE Tunnel toggle key to switch it to the ON position.

SNMP

SNMP configuration

The SNMP page is used to configure the SNMP features of the router.

Figure 76 - SNMP configuration

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used to remotely monitor the router for conditions that may warrant administrative attention. It can be used to retrieve information from the router

such as the signal strength, the system time and the interface status.

To configure SNMP:

1. Click the SNMP toggle key to switch it to the ON position.

2. Enter Read-only community name and Read-write community name which are used for client authentication.

Community names are used as a type of security to prevent access to reading and/or writing to the routers configuration. It is recommended that you change the Community names

to something other than the default settings when using this feature.

3. Click the Save button to save any changes to the settings.

The Download button displays the Management information base (MIB) of the router. The MIB displays all the objects of the router that can have their values set or report their status. The MIB is

formatted in the SNMP-related standard RFC1155.

New message

The New message page can be used to send SMS text messages to a single or multiple recipients.

A new SMS message can be sent to a maximum of 100 recipients at the same time. After sending the message, the result is displayed next to the destination number as “Success” or “Failure” if

the message failed to send. By default, only one destination number field is displayed. Additional destination numbers may be added one at a time after entering a valid number for the current

destination number field. To add a destination number, click the button and to remove the last destination in the list, click the button.

Figure 80 - SMS - New Message

Destination numbers should begin with the “+” symbol followed by the country calling code. To send a message to a destination number, enter the “+” symbol followed by the country calling

code and then the destination number.

For example:

To send a message to the mobile destination number 0412345678 in Australia (country calling code 61), enter “+61412345678”.

After entering the required recipient numbers, type your SMS message in the New message field. As you type your message, a counter shows how many characters you have entered out of the

total number available for your chosen encoding scheme. When you have finished typing your message and you are ready to send it, click the Send button.

White List for diagnostic or execution SMS

The white list is a list of mobile numbers that you can create which are considered “friendly” to the router. If Only accept authenticated SMS messages is enabled in the diagnostics section, the

router will compare the mobile number of all incoming diagnostic and command messages against this white list to determine whether the diagnostic or command should be executed. You may

optionally configure a password for each number to give an additional level of security. When a password is specified for a number, the SMS diagnostic or command message is parsed for the

password and will only be executed if the number and password match.

Figure 84 - White list for diagnostic or execution SMS

A maximum of 20 numbers can be stored on the router in the white list. To add a number to the white list, click the “+Add” button.

Figure 85 – Adding a number to the SMS white list

The White List numbers and passwords can be cleared by pressing the button to the right of each entry. To add a number to the white list, enter it in the Destination number field and

optionally define a password in the Password field. When you have finished adding numbers click the Save button to save the entries.

Upon receipt of a successfully formatted, authenticated (if required) command, the gateway will reply to the SMS in the following format:

TYPE SMS CONTENTS NOTES

get command “VARIABLE=VALUE”

set command “Successfully set VARIABLE to VALUE” Only sent if the acknowledgment message function is enabled

execute command “Successfully executed command COMMAND”

Where “VARIABLE” is the name of the value to be read

Where “VARIABLE (x)” is the name of another value to be read

Where “VALUE” is the content to be written to the “VARIABLE”

Where “COMMAND” is a supported command to be executed by the device (e.g. reboot)

Where “PASSWORD” is the password (if configured) for the corresponding sender number specified in the White List

Multiple commands can be sent in the same message, if separated by a semicolon.

For Example:

get VARIABLE1; get VARIABLE2; get VARIABLE3

PASSWORD get VARIABLE1; get VARIABLE2

set VARIABLE=VALUE1 ; set VARIABLE2=VALUE2

PASSWORD set VARIABLE1=VALUE1; set VARIABLE2=VALUE2; set VARIABLE3=VALUE3

If required, values can also be bound by an apostrophe, double apostrophe or back tick.

For Example:

“set VARIABLE=’VALUE’”

“set VARIABLE=”VALUE””

“set VARIABLE=`VALUE`”

“get VARIABLE”

System

Log

The Log pages are used to display or download the System log and IPSec logs on the router.

System log

The System Log enables you to troubleshoot any issues you may be experiencing with your Intelligent M2M Router. To access the System Log page, click on the System menu. The System Log

is displayed.

Figure 86 - System log file

Log file

Use the Display level drop-down list to select a message level to be displayed. The message levels are described in the table below.

To download the System log for offline viewing, right-click the Download button and choose Save as.. to save the file. To clear the System log, click the Clear button. The downloaded log file is in

Linux text format with carriage return (CR) only at the end of a line, therefore in order to be displayed correctly with new lines shown, it is recommended to use a text file viewer which displays

this format correctly (e.g. Notepad++).

Log data is stored in RAM and therefore, when the unit loses power or is rebooted, it will lose any log information stored in RAM. To ensure that log information is accessible between reboots of

the router there are two options:

1. Enable the Log to file option

2. Use a rem

te syslog server



www.netcommwireless.com

NetComm Wireless Intelligent M2M

oute



Enable the log to file option

When the router is configured to log to a file, the log data is stored in flash memory, making it accessible after a reboot of the router. Up to 512kb of log data will be stored before it is overwritten

by new log data. Flash memory has a finite number of program-erase operations that it may perform to the blocks of memory. While this number of program-erase operations is quite large, we

recommend that you do not enable this option for anything other than debugging to avoid excessive wear on the memory.

Use a remote syslog server

The router can be configured to output log data to a remote syslog server. This is an application running on a remote computer which accepts and displays the log data. Most syslog servers can

also save the log data to a file on the computer on which it is running allowing you to ensure that no log data is lost between reboots.

To configure the Intelligent M2M Router to output log data to a remote syslog server:

1. Click on the System menu from the top menu bar. The System log item is displayed.

2. Under the Remote syslog server section, enter the IP address or hostname of the syslog server in the IP / Hostname [:PORT] field. You can also specify the port number after the

IP or hostname by entering a semi-colon and then the port number e.g. 192.168.1.102:514. If you do not specify a port number, the router will use the default UDP port 514.

3. Click the Save button to save the configuration.
