Metric:
This parameter specifies the connected metric of the mobile interface. The default metric of
a connected interface is 1. By allowing the interface to have a higher value (lower priority),
static routes can take preference to interfaces. For normal operation, leave this value
unchanged.
Generate Heartbeats on this interface
Heartbeat packets are UDP packets that contain status information about the unit that may
be used to locate a remote unit’s current dynamic IP address.
This checkbox opens to show the following parameters:-
Send Heartbeat messages to IP address a.b.c.d every h hrs m mins s secs
If these parameters are set to a non-zero value, the router will transmit “heartbeat”
packets to the specified IP address/hostname at the specified interval.
Use interface x,y for the source IP address
This parameter allows the selection of the source interface for the UDP heartbeats. For
example, it may be required to send the heartbeat packets down a VPN tunnel. And in
order to match the corresponding subnets of the VPN, it might require changing the
source IP to match an inside Ethernet interface.
For normal operation, using the mobile interface as the source IP address, leave this
value unchanged.
Select transmit interface using the routing table
When enabled, the UDP heartbeats will choose the best route from the routing table. If
disabled the exit interface will be interface on which the heartbeat is configured.
Include IMSI information in the Heartbeat message
When enabled, the heartbeat will include the IMSI of the wireless module.
Include GPS information in the Heartbeat message
When enabled, the heartbeat will include the GPS co-ordinates of the router.
Generate Ping packets on this interface
This section relates to monitoring pings which can be sent from the mobile interface. For
more details refer to “
