Remote Console Manager (LE1204A-3G) Quick Start Guide

 Enter the carrier’s “APN” (e.g. for AT&T USA simply enter i2gold; for T-

Mobile USA enter epc.tmo bile.com) on the “Internal Cellular Modem” tab.

 Click “Apply” and the Remote Console Manager will connect to the

carrier.

 Verify the “Connection Status” in the “Statistics— Failover& Out-of-Band”

tab is shown as “Connected.”

NOTE: You can also see the connection status from the WWAN LED on

top of the unit. The LED is OFF when in reset mode or not powered.

When powered, the LED will go ON, and while searching for service it

will flash off briefly every 5 seconds. Once a radio connection has been

established with your carrier (after an APN has been properly

configured), the WWAN LED will blink at a rate proportional to traffic

signal strength detected (OFF =Low, [lower than -100 dBm], Blinking

Slow = Low to Medium [-99 to -90 dBm], Blinking Fast = Medium to High

[-89 to -70 dBm] and ON=High [-69 dBm or higher]).

Step 7: Out of band access

 Verify the “Connection Status” in the “Statistics—Failover & Out-of-Band”

tab is shown as “Connected.” You can also check your allocated public

“IP Address.”

NOTE: To directly access the Remote Console Manager, it needs to

have a Public IP address and it must not have SSH access firewalled.

Almost all carriers offer corporate mobile data service/plans with a

Public (static or dynamic) IP address; however, such plans often have

a service fee attached.

 If you have a static public IP address plan, you can directly access the

Remote Console Manager using the public IP Address provided by the

carrier. However, by default, only HTTPS and SSH access is enabled on

the OOB connection. So, you can browse to the Remote Console

Manager, but you cannot ping it.

 If you have a dynamic Public IP address plan, then a DDNS service will

need to be configured (see the user’s manual for details). Once this is

done, you can then access the Remote Console Manager using the

allocated domain name.

NOTE: By default, most providers offer a consumer grade service that

provides dynamic Private IP address assignments to 3G devices. This

Private IP address is not visible across the Internet, but generally it is

adequate for home and general business use. If you have such a plan,
