3.4.1 Overview of security measures
Since the EXPLORER 540 is most likely placed in remote areas without direct
supervision, it is important to protect it against unauthorized access.
The EXPLORER 540 has the following security measures:
• User and administrator passwords for the web interface.
• Deny access to AT commands on LAN.
• Admin password for AT shell and SMS control.
• White list for SMS control (list of trusted phone numbers).
• MAC filtering.
• SIM personalization.
Optional SIM lock (lock to provider) and optional PIN lock (lock to EXPLORER 540
terminal).
• Disable Reset button.
One of the functions of the Reset button is to reset to factory default, which also
resets the administrator password. This function can be disabled using the web
interface.
• Redirect to HTTPS.
• Enable/disable support for Thrane IP Handset.
You can set up these security measures in the web interface or with AT commands. see
the next sections for details.
