1: Introduction _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 Introduction This user manual describes the features and how to configure the range of Virtual Access routers in the GW2020 Series. The Virtual Access GW2020 Series routers are arrange of versatile 3G/LTE/CDMA450 wireless routers suitable for a variety of business and industrial deployments. The...
The user is responsible for ensuring the equipment is installed, operated and used for its intended function in the manner specified by Virtual Access. Failure to do so may invalidate safety features of the equipment.
Table 3: GW2020 Series router standard components Optional components include: 1 x lockable SIM cover. 1 x extra antenna Virtual Access supplies a wide range of antennas. Please visit our website: www.virtualaccess.com or contact Virtual Access for more information. Table 4:GW2020 Series router optional components 2.13...
4: Factory configuration extraction from SIM card _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4 Factory configuration extraction from SIM card Virtual Access routers have a feature to update the factory configuration from a SIM card. This allows you to change the factory configuration of a router when installing the SIM.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 7 Using the Command Line Interface This chapter explains how to view Virtual Access routers' log files and edit configuration files using a Command Line Interface (CLI) and the Unified Configuration Interface (UCI) system. Some commands may vary between router models.
7.3 Configuration files The table below lists common package configuration files that can be edited using uci commands. Other configuration files may also be present depending on the specific options available on the Virtual Access router. File Description Management...

8.1.3 Upgrading router firmware for software version 72.002 and above Copy the new firmware issued by Virtual Access to a PC connected to the router. In the top menu, select System tab > Flash operations. The Flash operations page appears.
11: Configuring VLAN _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 11 Configuring VLAN 11.1 Maximum number of VLANs supported Virtual Access’ routers support up to 4095 VLANs. 11.2 Configuration package used Package Sections Network 11.3 Configuring VLAN using the web interface 11.3.1 Create a VLAN interface To configure VLAN using the web interface, in the top menu, select Network - >Interfaces.
RIPv2 routers will both send and receive only Version 2 updates • Virtual Access ripd package supports RIP version 2 as described in RFC2453 and RIP version 1 as described in RFC1058. It is part of Quagga suite of applications for routing.
21 Automatic operator selection This section describes how to configure and operate the Automatic Operator Selection feature of a Virtual Access router. When the roaming SIM is connected, the radio module has the ability to scan available networks. The router, using mobile and multi-WAN packages, finds available networks to create and sort interfaces according to their signal strength.
26.1 Overview Dynamic DNS (DDNS) functionality on a Virtual Access router will dynamically perform DDNS updates to a server so it can associate an IP address with a correctly associated DNS name. Users can then contact a machine, router, device and so on with a DNS name rather than a dynamic IP address.
If you need to create an IPSec template for DMVPN, read the chapter ‘Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network (DMVPN)’. The number of IPSec tunnels supported by Virtual Access’ routers is not limited in any way by software; the only hardware limitation is the amount of RAM installed on the device.
New hubs can be added to the network to improve the performances and reliability. Ability to carry multicast and main routing protocols traffic (RIP, OSPF, BGP). • DMVPN can be deployed using Activator, the Virtual Access automated • provisioning system. Simplifies branch communications by enabling direct branch to branch •...
32.1 Configuring VLAN PCP tagging Virtual Access routers have the capability to respect and set PCP priority values inside 802.1Q VLAN tagged frames. The following partial export of network configuration shows how to configure VLAN priorities for specific interfaces (VLANs).
33: QoS: type of service _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 33 QoS: type of service Virtual Access routers are capable of implementing quality of service configurations on a per interface basis, which allows traffic prioritisation based on type of service criteria parameters. 33.1 QoS configuration overview...
34.2 Monitor Monitor is a Virtual Access proprietary tool, based on SNMP protocol, to monitor wide networks of deployed routers. The router will be configured to send information to Monitor, which is then stored and viewed centrally via the Monitor application. This includes features such as traffic light availability status, syslog and SLA monitoring.
37: Event system _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 37 Event system Virtual Access routers feature an event system. It allows you to forward Virtual Access specific router events to predefined targets for efficient control and management of devices. This chapter explains how the event system works and how to configure it using UCI commands.
Virtual Access cannot be held liable for any fees charged by the carrier to the customer for their data usage. We recommend that the configured data usage is lower than the allowance and that traffic percentage alerts are used.
