Version
Serial Number: This is assigned at the factory. This may be required by tech support but is
not required for any user applications.
Default Route: Network route used by the Vanguard 3G cellular radio modem when no
other known route exists for a given IP packet's destination address.
The default route points to the Cellular interface when WAN is up. The only exception to this
rule is if the WiFi interface is configured in wireless client mode and is connected to a WiFi
access point (WiFi Status=Up). In that case, the default route will point to the WiFi interface.
Note: When the connection to the WiFi access point is down the default route is set back to
the Cellular interface.
Ethernet (LAN)
IP Address: IP Lists the LAN IP address of the Vanguard 3G unit. This IP becomes the
gateway and DNS server for all PCs and devices connected on the LAN. This value is
configured on the LAN Settings Page.
Subnet Mask: The Subnet mask is used in conjunction with the network address to partition
the IP address into the network (subnet) portion and the host portion. In most cases, this
value will be automatically set by the software based on the class of IP address used for the
Ethernet IP. This value can be modified on the LAN Settings page.
MAC Address: Media Access Control Address, this is configured at the factory and cannot be
changed by the user.
WiFi (WLAN)
Status: Indicates if the WiFi interface is “UP” or “DOWN”
IP Address: IP address assigned to the WiFi interface of this device. When the WiFi
interface is set to operate in WiFi Client mode, the WiFi Access Point must have a DHCP
server running to assign an IP address to its WiFi clients.
Subnet Mask: Subnet Mask assigned to the WiFi interface of this device.
MAC Address: Media Access Control Address of the WiFi interface.
Cellular (WAN)
Status: indicates if the device has an established connection to the WAN. Status is UP or
DOWN
IP Address: WAN IP address of the Vanguard 3G unit. Remote access for the device
requires entering this address into a browser. The PPP IP Address is assigned by the cellular
carrier and will be dynamic unless a static address is specifically requested
Warning: Be aware of the dynamic nature of the WAN IP Address as it can affect related
applications.
Subnet Mask: This subnet mask is assigned by the carrier and is not configurable by the
user.
P-t-P: WAN IP address of the network access point of the cellular carrier
CDMA Connection
Service Type: Service Type indicates the type of service connection. The Vanguard 3G
radio modem will automatically connect to the most advanced service available and will
fallback to other networks (such as 1xRTT) when EV-DO Rev A is not available.
Roaming Status: Roaming Status indicates the unit roaming status. Status is ROAMING or
NOT ROAMING
ESN: Electronic Serial Number is assigned to the cellular modem at the factory. This number
must be provided to the carrier to activate the module.
