MDS 05-6632A01, Rev. F

 

multiple slots are provided, the upper slot will be labeled SIM-B and the lower slot will be 
labeled SIM-A.  

NOTE 

The 

sim-slot 

option will not be visible unless Dual SIM functionality is installed in the factory 

as part of the selective order-entry feature, for the 3G module. By default units are shipped with 
only SIM-A enabled; SIM-B is not supported.  

In addition to the 

Connection Profile

 configuration, the 

Connection Profile Switching

 feature allows a 

user to enable switching when one or more profiles are configured on a unit. This feature can be used to 
implement dual SIM functionality, where the user obtains and configures a unit with two SIM cards, each 
from a different cellular provider. This can help increase the reliability of the connection by allowing the 
unit to switch to a different SIM card if data connection with the other SIM card fails for any reason (for 
example, due to reduced signal strength and so on).  

For example, the UI screen for a 

Connection Profile Switching

 is shown below:  

Interfaces / Cell ---> Basic Config / Cellular 

 

Figure 3-25. Connection Profile Switching Example 

 

Switch to Next on Roaming - 

This parameter enables connection profile switching when the 

roaming-state of current connection changes to roaming. DEFAULT - 

FALSE

 (disabled).  

 

Switch to Next on Failure - 

This parameter enables connection profile switching when data 

connection failure occurs when using the current profile. DEFAULT - 

FALSE

 (disabled).  

 

Switch to Next on Failure Timeout - 

This parameter specifies the time interval for which 

data connection is attempted using the current connection profile before switching to next one 
in the list. DEFAULT - 

30 

min.  

 

Switch to First on Timeout - 

This parameter enables switching of connection profile to the 

first one in the list irrespective of current connection status. DEFAULT - 

FALSE

 (disabled).  

 

Switch to First Timeout - 

This parameter specifies the time interval after which data 

connection is attempted using the first profile in the list regardless of current connection status. 
DEFAULT - 

60

 min.  

NOTE 

The cellular provider network can disconnect the cellular connection if any packets get routed 
from LAN to Cellular interface without undergoing masquerading (Source Network Address 
Translation (NAT) before exiting the cellular interface. Therefore, always configure 
masquerading on the cellular interface. See “Source NAT (Masquerading)” on Page 226 for 
more information on NAT configuration.  

Use of the “

Connection Profile Switching

” feature requires the user to configure two profiles; each with 

specific cellular provider information for the respective SIM slot. For example, say the SIM card from 
carrier A is inserted in SIM-A and the SIM card from carrier B is inserted in SIM-B.  

 

Configure a profile for carrier A to use SIM-A:
