CONEL SPECTRE v3 ERT [11/136] Basic information

1. BASIC INFORMATION

Conﬁguration

Conﬁguring SPECTRE routers is made easy by a password protected web interface. The

interface provides detailed statistics about router activities, signal strength, system logs and

more. The router supports the creation of secure VPN tunnels using technologies that include

IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP. The router also supports DHCP, NAT, NAT-T, DynDNS client,

NTP, VRRP, control by SMS, backup of primary connection and many other functions.

Additional diagnostic features designed to ensure continuous communication include au-

tomatic inspection of PPP connections, an automatic restart feature in case a connection is

lost, and a hardware watchdog that monitors the status of the router. Using a start up script

window, users can insert Linux scripts for various actions. Users may insert multiple scripts

and the router can switch between conﬁgurations as needed. Examples would include using

SMS or checking the status of the binary input. SPECTRE v3 routers can automatically up-

date their conﬁgurations and ﬁrmware from a central server, allowing for mass reconﬁguration

of multiple routers at the same time.

Conﬁguration Options

Routers can be conﬁgured via web browser or Secure Shell (SSH). Conﬁguration via Web

Browser is described in this Conﬁguration Manual. Commands and scripts applicable in con-

ﬁguration via SSH are described in Commands and Scripts for v2 and v3 Routers – Application

Note [1]. The standard and optional equipment and technical parameters of your router can

be found in User’s Manual of your router. You can use additional software – communication

VPN server SmartCluster [2] and software for router monitoring R-SeeNet [3, 4].
