Function Overview
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 offers the following functions:
• Configuration over web interface
All functions of the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 can be configured and set via a web
interface. The access to the web interface is protected with a user name
and password query. The TCP port which is used to access the web inter-
face can be set freely.
• Serial Ethernet gateway
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 can output arriving data from a certain network port
at the serial interface. Also, data arriving at the serial interface are sent to
an IP remote terminal. Together with the INSYS VCOM driver, the Serial
Ethernet gateway enables the transparent transmission of a serial connec-
tion via a network.
• NAT and Port forwarding
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 is a router, which can also send data packets via NAT
and port forwarding. According to defined rules, the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 will
send incoming IP packets to definable ports and port areas at IP addresses
and ports in the LAN.
• Dial-in PPP server
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 may be used as a PPP dial-in server. Similar to an
Internet provider, a caller can establish a PPP connection to the MoRoS
GPRS 1.3, to access the network behind it.
• Establishing a PPP connection via an incoming call (callback)
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 identifies calls and will automatically establish a PPP
connection to a previously determined remote terminal (e.g. an Internet
provider). The caller who triggers the connection setup can identify him-
self via a PPP authentification method or his phone number.
• Automatic dialing of a PPP terminal (dial-out)
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 will establish a connection to a PPP terminal (e.g.
Internet provider), as soon as it registers outgoing network traffic. You can
use rules to define which network traffic or network participant may trig-
ger the connection setup.
• PPP Leased line operation
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 can establish and maintain a constant connection via
a dial-up line. This makes it possible to communicate with a network via a
dial-up connection such as a "leased line".
• Periodic PPP connection setup
The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 can establish and terminate a PPP connection time-
controlled. Fixed times can be set for the connection setup and termina-
tion.
