Configuring Cellular Uplink Profiles
You can configure 3G or 4G uplinks by using the Instant UI or the CLI.
In the Instant UI
To configure 3G/4G uplinks:
1. Click the System link on the Instant main window.
2. In the System window, click the show advanced settings link.
3. Click the Uplink tab.
4. To configure a 3G or 4G uplink, select the Country and ISP.
5. Click OK.
6. Reboot the W-IAP for changes to take effect.
In the CLI
To configure 3G/4G uplink manually:
(Instant AP)(config) # cellular-uplink-profile
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-type <3G-usb-type>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# 4g-usb-type <4g-usb>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# modem-country <country>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# modem-isp <service-provider-name>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-auth-type <usb-authentication_type>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-user <username>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-passwd <password>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-dev <device-ID>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-tty <tty-port>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-init <Initialization-parameter>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-dial <dial-parameter>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-modeswitch <usb-modem>
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
To switch a modem from the storage mode to modem mode:
(Instant AP)(cellular-uplink-profile)# usb-modeswitch <usb-modem>
To view the cellular configuration:
(Instant AP)# show cellular config
Managing Cellular SIM PIN
W-IAPs now support the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) Personal Identification Number (PIN) management
functions such as locking, unlocking, and renewing the SIM PIN of the 3G/4G modems. In the current release,
these functions can be configured only through the W-IAP CLI.
To prevent any fradulent use of 3G/4G modems connected to a W-IAP, you can enable locking of the SIMPIN
of the modems. When enabled, if an incorrect PIN code is provided in the three consecutive attempts, the
SIMPIN is locked. To unlock the PIN, the users must use the Personal Unblocking Code (PUK) code provided by
your ISP.
After enabling SIM PIN lock, reboot the W-IAP to apply the SIM PIN lock configuration changes.
To enable SIM PIN lock:
(Instant AP)# pin-enable <pin_current_used>
To disable SIM PIN locking:
(Instant AP)# no pin-enable <pin_current_used>
