3. Conguration
The concentrator can be congured in several ways:
• Using conguration les uploaded to an FTP, SFTP or WebDAV-HTTPS server.
• Through conguration les placed on a micro SD card.
• Using the concentrator’s web interface.
• Using text message commands.
The use of a server congured by FTP/SFTP/WebDAV-HTTPS is the preferred solution to remotely
congure and maintain devices to service the equipment pool. If the local web interface and the FTP les
are modied at the same time, the FTP les take precedence. Any modications to les on the FTP server
will overwrite any possible local modications.
It should be noted that for the rst start, the following elements must at least be congured using SMS
(see chapter 5.2.3: “SMS”) or the local web interface (see chapter 3.2.2.5: “Servers (servers) )Servers
(servers)”):
• FTP server name.
• FTP server authentication: login and password.
• Interface to use: modem or Ethernet properly congured to access external devices.
The text messages make it possible to issue some basic requests to launch the conguration le retrieval
on the FTP server. They are never a substitute for full FTP or web conguration.
3.1 FTP/SFTP/WebDAV
As indicated previously, this conguration method takes precedence over local conguration using the
web interface.
This operating mode requires an FTP, SFTP or WebDAV server accessible by the concentrator. This server
is accessible using an address, a login and a password.
The server can be hosted on any server type (Windows, Linux, etc.). What is important is that its address
is accessible by the concentrator using the congured network interface (Ethernet or modem). Please
note that Windows FTP servers are unable to manage the case in le names. Therefore, to avoid all
problems, it is recommended to only use Linux FTP servers.
The use of an SFTP or WebDAV server is preferable because of the extra security layers compared to a
classic FTP server. Otherwise, different types of servers operate in the same way.
SFTP based on login and password.
