4 API
The Application Programmable Interface (API) allows you to create your own custom interface with
the router. You can control certain features such as SMS messaging.
4.1 Enabling the API
To enable the API please do the following.
LAN Access:
Go to System-> Remote Management
Click Enable LAN management
Click API Over LAN
Do not forget to reboot the router after activating the API.
4.2 Connecting to the API
The API operates on port 6435.
To connect you can for example, type in the following within a console:
telnet 192.168.0.1 6435 (or change 192.168.0.1 to the IP of your router).
If the connection was successful you will receive something similar to:
This is version X.Y of the API
SMS is enabled
Followed by a '>>'-prompt
4.3 Logging in to the API
The API uses the Username and Password as specified in the Web GUI.
To log in as user admin, type:
user admin
When prompted for a password, enter it using the following syntax:
pass password
(The user and password is configured on the SYSTEM->USERS page)
If the login fails, verify & re-enter your credentials until access is granted.
4.4 API Syntax
To display information about the GUI functions and syntax, type help.
Commands:
help (show this help)
