Page 70 PPTP VPN PPTP stands for Point-to-Point Tunnelling Protocol, operating on TCP port 1723. It is one of the oldest VPN protocols still in use, which was developed by Microsoft to encapsulate PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol). PPTP is an easy to use VPN protocol but is not recommended in cases where security is essential since it has serious security vulnerabilities.
Page 71 IP Pool: This is to define the range of IP addresses for the PPTP client(s) that connect to the sever, e.g. 192.168.100.2 – 192.168.100.10. MPPE: Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE) for PPTP data. The options include NONE, MPPE 40, and MPPE 128. Default is NONE. MPPE Stateful: to use MPPE Stateful Mode by enabling this option.
Page 72 PPTP Client If the Universal Hub needs to be as a PPTP client, the PPTP client protocol needs to be selected for a VPN tunnel and the following settings will be shown: Tunnel name: a name of the tunnel used for identifying the tunnels. User name / Password: the log in credentials set by the PPTP server.
Page 73 MPPE Stateful: to use MPPE Stateful Mode by enabling this option. Otherwise, Stateless Mode is in use. Must use the option that matches the PPTP server setting. Asyncmap: a 32-bit Asynchronous Control Character Map for LCP control in hex format. For example, 0xffffffff will escape all control characters.
Page 74 L2TP VPN Layer Two Tunnelling Protocol (L2TP) is an extension of the PPTP protocol used to enable a virtual private network (VPN) over the Internet. L2TP combines the best features of PPTP from Microsoft and L2F from Cisco Systems. The L2TP itself does not provide any encryption or confidentiality but can rely on an encryption protocol that it passes within the tunnel, such as IPSec, to provide security.
Page 75 IP Pool: This is to define the range of IP addresses for the L2TP client(s) that connect to the sever, e.g. 10.2.0.10 – 10.2.0.20. Port: the UDP port used by the L2TP VPN. The port 1701 is the commonly used one for L2TP VPN. Asyncmap: a 32-bit Asynchronous Control Character Map for LCP control in hex format.
Page 76 L2TP Client If the Universal Hub needs to be as a L2TP client, the L2TP client protocol needs to be selected for a VPN tunnel and the following settings will be shown: Tunnel name: a name of the tunnel used for identifying tunnels.

Page 78 IPSec IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) is a set of protocols that provides security for Internet Protocol, through authentication and encryption of IP network packets. Site-to-Site IPSec VPN Site-to-Site IPSec VPN Tunnels are used to allow the secure transmission of data, voice and video between two sites (e.g. offices or branches). The Universal Hub can be configured as a router for an IPSec Site to Site VPN.
Page 79 Mode: the working modes of the IPSec Tunnel including: Site to Site Gateway, Site to Site Client, Gateway, Client The Site to Site Gateway/Client options are used for creating a site-to- site VPN tunnel, while the Gateway/Client are for a VPN connection between two end devices, e.g.
Page 80 Perfect Forward Secrecy: option to enable the Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) in the IPSec VPN. A PFS DH group will be needed if PFS is enabled. A Site to Site Client set up is very similar to that of a Gateway, with additional setting of a Remote Server IP address.
Page 81 L2TP/IPSec Since L2TP itself does not provide any encryption or confidentiality, IPSec encryption can be used to secure the data packet that passes within the tunnel, which is call L2TP/IPSec. To set up L2TP/IPSec VPN, an IPSec tunnel needs to be created for L2TP VPN, either a server or client.
Page 82 Aggressive Mode: the VPN tunnel will use Aggressive mode instead of Main mode when enabled. Disabled by default. IKE DH Group: the Diffie-Hellman (DH) group used in the Internet Key Exchange (IKEv2) protocol. IKE Encryption: defines the encryption algorithm used in the IKEv2 protocol.
Page 83 Type: the type of the IPSec tunnel. Must be Transport Mode if the device is set up as a client, and so does the gateway in this case. Name: a name of the tunnel used for identifying tunnels. Server IP: The IP address or URL of the L2TP server. Preshared Key: the secret key pre-set for the IPSec Tunnel and used by both server and client.
Page 84 OPENVPN OpenVPN is an open-source implementation of Virtual Private Network (VPN) for creating a secure point-to-point or site-to-site connections. The project was started by James Yonan and is published under the GNU General Public License (GPL). The OpenVPN in Universal Hub utilises certificate-based authentication.
Page 85 Tunnel Name: a name of the tunnel used for identifying tunnels. Protocol: the IP protocol used for the OpenVPN tunnel, either UDP or TCP.

Because it is monitoring DNP frames, this works for both TCP and UDP connections. 0 (default) – no timeout, output never clear 1-65535 – timeout seconds (maximum approx. 18.2 hours). Analog This section is used to set up DNP3 points for Analogue Inputs. The Universal Hub Base Model has no customer useable analogue inputs, and the configuration page is reserved for future models.
Page 106 Data Class: the point Data Class attribute affects the way the data is reported externally from the Universal Hub. If a point configuration has a point Data Class other than Local, changes will be reported to the SCADA Master in the indicated DNP3 data class. As per DNP3 Standard requirements, any data configured for Class 1, 2, 3 is also returned in response to a Class 0 poll request.
Page 107 Point Number: the field specifies the DNP3 identifier for each binary Output channel. The valid range is 0-65535. The Point Number must be unique for each Binary Input Channel. Note that the same Point Number is also used by a matching DNP3 Frozen Counter point. Static Variation: the field defines the data object returned in response to a DNP3 static data poll request (e.g.
Page 108 If a point configuration has a point Data Class of Local, it is not available to the SCADA master through the Class 0, 1, 2, 3 mechanisms. Points configured as Local are accessible via a DNP3 "Level 3" read request. Valid point Data Class values are Local, Class 0, Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3.
Page 109 values are Local, Class 0, Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3. The default Data Class for Frozen Counter points is Local. Internal This section is used to set up DNP3 points for device status, which includes Input Voltage, Board(Internal) Temperature, Module(Cellular) Temperature, Mobile Signal Strength, and Registration Status.
Page 110 Data Class: the data class types as per the Analogue or Binary I/O points described previously. Value Deadband: the Value Deadband attribute as per the Analogue points described previously. The default deadband for device status is 0, meaning that any changes in value will result in a DNP3 event.
Page 111: System
D E V I C E M A N A G E M E N T The Device Management settings provide configurations for the router itself, including management of device access, user account, system clock, debug tools, and firmware upgrade. System The system settings provide configurations for the device access controls.
Page 112 HTTPS: option to allow device access via HTTPS protocol. The protocol port can be configured instead of using the standard port 443 to add a level of device security. The protocol is disabled by default. SSH Terminal: option to allow device access via SSH protocol. The function is disabled by default.
Page 113 Both username and password can be configured with correct entries of current login credentials. It is strongly recommended that users change the default login credentials, at least the password, before deploying the device in the field to avoid security risks.
Page 114: Backup / Profiles
Backup / Profiles Backup / Profiles settings provide device configuration backup and restore function, as well as factory default reset. Save Settings to File: option to save the current device configuration to an encrypted binary file. Load Settings from File: option to load a device configuration from a previously save file.
Page 115: Clock
Clock The Clock settings is to control the real time clock source in the router. Time Sync: option to specify the source that the router uses to synchronise its internal system clock. The source can be Cellular Network, NTP Server, or Manually Input. NTP Server: the IP/URL of the NTP server if using NTP server for clock source.
Page 116: Ping Tool
Ping Tool The Ping Tool page provides the ping check function over the Web interface for some debugging purposes. More useful debugging tools may be available in further firmware releases.
Page 117: System Logs
System Logs This page displays the current system log that may be helpful for some trouble shooting. The log can be downloaded locally via the download button. There is also a setting for remote syslog function.
Page 118 Enable Logs: option to enable the System log functions. Enabled by default. Remote Syslog: option to activate the remote syslog function. Disabled by default. Remote Syslog Server: the IP/URL of the remote syslog server.
Page 119: Firmware Upgrade
Firmware Upgrade The Firmware Upgrade page is used for upgrading the router firmware via LAN or WAN interface. When “Choose F/W” is clicked, the Web GUI will pop up windows asking for the binary firmware image (.BIN file). Once selected, the router will upload the file into its internal memory and perform firmware upgrade.
