Ethernet Lan; Nat - Multitech MultiConnect MTCAPW-L12G2 Admin Manual

Data Load Check: Enable this option if there are continuous incoming and outgoing data packets
passing through the WAN connection. If no data traffic is detected for the duration of the check
interval, it disconnects and reconnects the cellular WAN connection.
Check Interval: Indicate how often to check the data traffic on the WAN connection.
8. NAT: Enable or disable the NAT mechanism between the LAN and WAN interfaces. The default is disable,
bridge mode only. In this mode, multiple LAN devices are supported.
Cellular Consecutive fails times: Automatically reboots the modem when the cellular connection
can't obtain an IP address after consecutive attempts. Enter the number of allowed cellular IP
address failures before modem auto reboot.
Network Monitoring (keep alive): To monitor cellular connection status, check Enable. The system
prevents the embedded LTE modem from auto-timeout and disconnects after a period of
inactivity.
DNS Query or ICMP Checking: Performs DNS query or ICMP on the cellular connection to
determine if an active cellular connection is still valid.
Data Load Check: Enable this option if there are continuous incoming and outgoing data packets
passing through the WAN connection. If no data traffic is detected for the duration of the check
interval, it disconnects and reconnects the cellular WAN connection.
Check Interval: Indicates how often to perform DNS query or ICMP check on the WAN connection.
Target 1/Target2: Sets host for network monitoring keep alive check including DNS1, DNS2, or
Other host (input IP address manually).
9. AT Command: Enable to allow an external TCP application to have direct access to an internal LTE radio
using AT commands. The TCP port number needs to be set up between 1 to 65535.
10. Init String 1 to 4: Sets up custom AT commands to be sent to the LTE radio before making a cellular WAN
connection.

Ethernet LAN

This device has one Ethernet LAN port to connect to one external Ethernet device. To configure, on the menu on
the left go to Basic Network > LAN.
1. Site Name: Enter the Site name to identify the location when setting up DeviceHQ.
2. LAN IP Address: Enter the LAN's IP address. This IP address must be used as the computer's default
gateway. This is also the IP address of the web UI. If you change this, type in the new IP address into a
web browser to see the web UI.
3. Subnet Mask: Enter the LAN's subnet mask. This defines how many clients are allowed in one network or
subnet. The default subnet is 255.255.255.0 and allows for a maximum of 254 IP addresses.

NAT

This option appears when NAT mode is selected in the WAN internet setup page. This mode allows multiple LAN
devices to share one cellular WAN connection.
1. Configuration: Check option for NAT loopback. Allows you to access the WAN IP address from inside your
LAN network.
2. Virtual Server: Allows you to setup the WAN IP to LAN IP mapping in order for remote access to LAN
devices.
a. Public Port: Enter the public IP port number.
