3. Conguration
The concentrator can be congured in several ways:
• Using conguration les uploaded to an FTP, SFTP or WebDAV-HTTPS server.
• Through conguration les placed on a micro SD card.
• Using the concentrator’s web interface.
• Using text message commands.
The use of a server congured by FTP/SFTP/WebDAV-HTTPS is the preferred solution to remotely
congure and maintain devices to service the equipment pool. If the local web interface and the FTP les
are modied at the same time, the FTP les take precedence. Any modications to les on the FTP server
will overwrite any possible local modications.
It should be noted that for the rst start, the following elements must at least be congured 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 congured to access external devices.
The text messages make it possible to issue some basic requests to launch the conguration le retrieval
on the FTP server. They are never a substitute for full FTP or web conguration.
3.1 FTP/SFTP/WebDAV
As indicated previously, this conguration method takes precedence over local conguration 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 congured 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.
