3. ROUTER DESCRIPTION
3. Router description
Industrial router XR5i v2 is used to a secure connection between two local area networks
(LANs) via two ETHERNET interfaces 10/100 and secured tunnel (IPSec, OpenVPN or L2TP).
The second option is to use this router for connecting two devices with different serial interface
(RS232, RS485, MBUS) alternatively I/O to the local network (LAN). In this configuration, the
communication device has an EHTERNET 10/100 and two interfaces that are equipped on
the user’s request.
XR5i v2 router is standardly equipped with one ETHERNET 10/100 port, one USB A (host)
port, one I/O port and two expansion ports. Users can select a second ETHERNET 10/100
port, serial interface RS232/RS485/RS422/MBUS, expansion port with SD card (SDH) or other
inputs/outputs (I/O). Industrial XR5i v2 router is supplied either in a plastic or metal casing,
based on the requirements of the customer.
Configuration is performed via web interface and protected by password. The router sup-
ports creation of VPN tunnels using technologies IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP to ensure safe
communication. Web interface provides detail statistics about the router activities.
Other diagnostic functions ensuring continuous communication include automatic function-
ality inspection, or hardware Watchdog which monitors the status of the router. With the help
of a special window (start up script window) you may insert Linux scripts for various actions.
For some applications the key option to create several different configurations for one wire-
less router, the so-called profiles (maximum of 4), and the option to switch between them (for
example via binary input status, web interface, etc.) is essential.
The industrial router XR5i v2 has implemented SNMP protocol for remote management.
It is also possible to configure the network in bulk and use any additional software - VPN
SmartCluster configurator to easily configure a VPN or a program for monitoring routers in
the network R-SeeNet. Industrial XR5i v2 router is enhanced by the ability to create custom
functions easy integration of custom software modules.
