the rules below will be dispatched to the first available modem.
Filtering serves a concept of firewalling incoming messages, thus either dropping or
allowing them on a per-modem basis. The created rules are processed by order and in
case of matches will either drop or forward the incoming message before entering the
system. All non-matching messages will be allowed.
Status
The status page can be used to the current modem status and get information about
any sent or received messages. There is a small SMS inbox reader which can be used to
view or delete the messages. Please note that the inbox will be cleared each midnight
in case it exceeds 512 kBytes of flash usage.
Testing
This page can be used to test whether SMS sending in general or filtering/routing rules
works. The maximum length per message part is limited to 160 characters, we also
suggest to exclusively use characters which are supported by the GSM 7-bit alphabet.
