Only accept authenticated SMS messages
Enables or disables checking the
sender’s phone number against
the allowed sender white list for incoming diagnostics and
command execution SMS messages.
If authentication is enabled, the router will
check if the sender’s number exists in
the white list. If it exists, the router then checks the
password (if configured) in the incoming message against the password in the white list for the corresponding sending number. If
they match, the diagnostic or command is executed.
If the number does not exist in the white list or the password does not match, the router does not execute the incoming diagnostic
or command in the SMS message.
This is enabled by default and it is strongly advised that you leave this feature enabled to maintain security.
