Configuration – Remote Management > iDigi > Connection Settings
iDigi is a hosted remote configuration and management system that has been designed to
facilitate the management of large numbers of routers. Before this service can be used, an
iDigi account must be set up. Applying for an account is a straightforward procedure; the
local sales representative will have details. The iDigi homepage is to be found at
www.idigi.com.
The service is hosted on the iDigi servers and these provide a web-based interface that
shows the configuration of selected routers, allows the configuration to be changed and also
facilitates remote firmware upgrade. The iDigi servers also provide a data storage facility.
Enable Remote Management using a client-initiated connection
Select this checkbox to display the basic configuration parameters and enable the unit to
make the connection to the remote iDigi server.
Server Address
This text entry box is used to enter the IP address or (more usually) the domain name of
the iDigi host, for example idigi.com. (This information will be supplied when your iDigi
account is activated).
Automatically reconnect to the server after being disconnected
The protocol used to communicate with the server allows the router to detect that it is no
longer connected to the server. Ticking this checkbox will cause the router to attempt a
reconnection when it discovers that the connection has been lost.
Reconnect after h hours m minutes s seconds
If the reconnect checkbox is enabled, these parameters specify the interval to wait before
attempting to reconnect to the server.
