B+B SMARTWORK SmartMotion, Configuration Manual

Page: 12 / 144

1. BASIC INFORMATION
1.4 Configuration
Configuring SmartMotion routers is made easy by name and password protected web
interface. The interface provides detailed statistics about router activities, signal strength,
system logs and more. The router supports both
IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, the creation of
secure VPN tunnels using technologies that include IPsec , OpenVPN and L2TP . The router
also supports DHCP , NAT , NAT-T , DynDNS client , NTP , VRRP , control by SMS, backup of
primary connection, multiple WANs and many other functions.
Additional diagnostic features designed to ensure continuous communication include au-
tomatic inspection of PPP connections, an automatic restart feature in case a connection is
lost, and a hardware watchdog that monitors the status of the router. Using a start up script
window, users can insert Linux scripts for various actions. Users may insert multiple scripts
and the router can switch between configurations as needed. Examples would include using
SMS or checking the status of the binary input. SmartMotion routers can automatically update
their configurations and firmware from a central server, allowing for mass reconfiguration of
multiple routers at the same time.
1.5 Configuration Options
Routers can be configured via web browser or Secure Shell ( SSH ). Configuration via Web
Browser is described in this Configuration Manual. Commands and scripts applicable in con-
figuration via
SSH are described in Commands and Scripts for v2 and v3 Routers – Application
Note [1] . Technical parameters and description of the router can be found in User’s Manual of
your router. You can use additional software – communication VPN server SmartCluster [2]
and software for router monitoring R-SeeNet [3, 4] .
1.6 IPv6 Support
There is independent IPv4 and IPv6 dual stack implemented in the router’s firmware. It
means you can configure traffic in both IP protocols independently and both are supported.
Additional EUI-64 IPv6 addresses of network interfaces are generated automatically the stan-
dard way. There is NAT64 internal gateway network interface for automatic translation between
IPv6 and IPv4 (see Chapter
3.5 for more information). It works together with DNS64 seam-
lessly (domain names translation).
For cellular IPv6 connection see Mobile WAN Configuration in Chapter 4.4.1 . For IPv6 LAN
configuration see
LAN Configuration
in Chapter 4.1 , DHCPv6 server/client is supported. IPv4
is default, but IPv6 can be enabled or used at all features and protocols in the router, except
for non-secured tunnels GRE, L2TP and PPTP. Using secured tunnels OpenVPN and IPsec
you can run IPv6 traffic inside the IPv4 tunnel and vice versa. Configuration form for
NAT ,
Firewall and Up/Down Scripts is totally separated for IPv4 and IPv6 stack. ICMPv6 protocol is
supported. IPv6 configuration is mentioned in every particular Chapter below when possible.
