INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Functions 5 Functions 5.1 Reset to Factory Defaults There are two options to reset the device to the factory default settings: Pres the "Reset" key at least 5 times for a duration of 100 ms to 500ms each within 10 seconds. Connect the "Reset" terminal to GND at least 5 times for a duration of 100 ms to 500ms each within 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet will reset all parameters to the factory defaults.
Functions 5.3 5.3.1 INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Introduction to the Routing of IP Networks Routing general (without NAT) A router is the link between two network segments. It forwards the IP packets, which are not located in the network of the sender, to the other network segment. In the computers of the network segment, the IP address of the according router to the respective destination network must be entered in the local routing table as gateway.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Functions If only one router is available, this router is defined one time as standard gateway. It will then receive all IP packets which are not meant for the own network segment. It will assume the correct forwarding to the according destination network. This forwarding is done without any changes at the IP packets. The recipient will thus know the sender and will also know exactly, where the IP packet is from.
Functions 5.3.3 32 INSYS GPRS 5.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Functions The figure shows two private network segments, which do not know about each other, but both need access to the web server www.insys-tec.de. Both private network segments use the same IP addresses, which is possible for private IP addresses as they are not routed in the public Internet. As non of the LAN devices from the private network segments are visible in the public Internet (due to their non-routable IP addresses), they will need a proxy.
Functions INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Note The dynamic entry in the NAT table takes place when establishing a connection from the private LAN to the public WAN. For incoming connections from the WAN and their forwarding to services in the private LAN, static entries are used. (see Chapter 5.5.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet 5.4 Functions Port Forwarding 5.4.1 Incoming connections Besides the previously described, dynamic NAT entries for outgoing connections, fixed, user-defined, i.e. purely static NAT entries may be defined for incoming connections for the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet. This will remain permanently after the initialization. The maximum possible number of dynamic entries will be reduced by the number of fixed, static entries. Note In the INSYS GPRS 5.
Functions INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet After the entries were stored and the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet was restarted, the local web server is available via the public IP address of the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet (in the example: 84.142.35.215). For the client computer with web browser it seems as if the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet is the called up web server. Any local server application, which supports the TCP or UDP protocol, can therefore be addressed from the public network.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet 5.5 5.5.1 Functions Configuration Operation The configuration pages allow simple and convenient configuration of the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet using a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Opera, and Firefox), regardless of the used operating system. For the configuration, no drivers, software, etc. are required. JavaScript must be enabled in the browser. The web interface is protected by a password. In the factory configuration, the fields user name and password are empty, i.e.

INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Functions The parameters for GSM/GPRS can be set on this page. WAN connection: Determination of the GPRS connection control: Always on (default) After each restart, the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet will automatically establish a GPRS connection. This will remain permanently and will be re-established after an interruption. Controlled via input IN1 As soon as the input IN1 is active (terminal "IN1" connected to "GND"), the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet will establish a GPRS connection.
Functions PIN: INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet SIM card PIN. The PIN can consist of 4 to 8 digits. If no PIN is defined, SIM cards with deactivated PINs may be used as well. Note Before inserting a new SIM card you have to ensure that the correct PIN is stored. The PIN may need to be deleted. Otherwise the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet tries to login with a wrong PIN, which results in a locked PIN if the attempt is repeated. APN: APN (Access Point Name) of the GPRS provider. Maximum length 30 characters, e.g. web.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet 5.5.4 Functions LAN The default settings for the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet are as follows: IP: Subnet mask: 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 The INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet offers the possibility to control the status of its LAN interface: Always on (default) The LAN interface is permanently active. Controlled via input IN2 The LAN interface can be switched on or off via the input IN2.
Functions INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Better availability through standby router If necessary, a standby router may be activated through the LAN interface that is switchable via the input IN2. For reasons of availability, it may be required to equip a second router (standby router) with a SIM card of another provider. The standby router should only engage with the LAN, if the standard router looses the connection to the GPRS network.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet 5.5.5 Functions NAT TCP timeout: 1 ... 9999 The value of the TCP timeout (default: 130) specifies after how many minutes without data traffic a connection entry in the NAT table will be marked as inactive. If there are not enough spaces in the NAT table available, all inactive entries are deleted, thus making new spaces available. As the NAT table allows a maximum of 1024 entries, i.e.
Functions INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet New static NAT entry: With this option, you can create a new static NAT entry, meaning a virtual server. WAN port: The port on the WAN side of the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet, which should accept the IP packets from outside. 1 ... 65535 LAN IP address: The IP address of the destination computer in the local network. LAN port: The port of the local destination computer, to which the INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet should forward the IP packets from outside. 1 ...
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet 5.5.6 Functions DynDNS Use the service offered by "DynDNS" to register a unique domain name, a so-called "Full Qualified Domain Name" in the Internet. The owner of this domain name can assign any IP address to this domain name. The best-known DynDNS provider is DynDNS.org (at: http://www.dyndns.org). They offer to register a host name with predefined extensions (e.g. *.dyndns.org, *.mine.nu, etc.) as unique domain name free of cost.
Functions DynDNS Hostname: INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet The domain name designated and registered for this INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet is specified here. It can have a maximum length of 40 characters.

INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet GPRS General 6 GPRS General 6.1 Application Notes When using data services via GPRS, providers offer various contract options, especially regarding the pricing (basic price, basic data volume, billing unit). Please contact the according providers for further information. In general, GPRS providers bill every time a connection is terminated and daily at midnight (the provider will terminate the connection at this time), and all accumulated data are rounded to the billing unit.
GPRS General 6.2 INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Network Design The GPRS system is intended as additional service within the scope of the GSM system. The GPRS data exchange (GPRS = General Packet Radio Services) runs packet-oriented, based on the Internet Protocol (IP). The following figure shows the basic design, where the application has to provide the TCP/IP/PPP stacks. This is required when using the standard GPRS functionality of the GPRS Ethernet.
INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet GPRS General IP Addresses/Accessibility The IP address of the GPRS end device is dynamically allocated by the provider and is temporary, i.e. during the next dialup at the provider a new IP address is allocated. In many GPRS networks the IP address can not be accessed from outside (routingenabled), as the providers perform the addressing for the switch from GPRS networks to the “normal Internet” via a NAT table (Network Address Translation).
GPRS General 6.3 INSYS GPRS 5.0 Ethernet Data Rates The GPRS Ethernet has the following characteristics: GPRS Multislot class 12 GPRS End device class B Support of coding scheme 1 to 4 PBCCH Support GPRS has several classes (multislot classes) which are relevant for the transmission speed.
