Configuring Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 cellular connection settings through the Web Console

If the device is not connected to a modem, you cannot use a cellular connection in Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 or configure the connection settings through the Web Console.

You can view and configure the Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 cellular connection settings in the Web Console under Network → Modem. This section contains the following information about the cellular connection of Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000:

• The Modem settings block provides information about the modem operating status and current signal quality.
• The Modem DNS server addresses block provides information about the IP addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers of the modem.
• The Modem profiles table displays information about the available modem profiles.
• The Broadcast settings section, where you can configure the use of masquerading for the cellular connection.

  When masquerading is enabled, the sender's address on the internal network is dynamically replaced with an address on the external network, depending on the address assigned to the interface.

Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 provides for two types of modem profiles:

• Predefined profile – a profile provided together with the device. Predefined profiles are read-only.
• Custom profile – a profile that is created during configuration of the cellular connection. Custom profiles can be edited and deleted.

Different modem profiles enable you to work with different cellular communication providers. To use a cellular connection, one of the modem profiles must be active. The predefined modem profile is active by default.

If there is no cellular connection, you must verify that the following conditions are met:

• The SIM card used in the modem is valid and has an active plan that supports an Internet connection through the modem.
• The selected modem profile matches the utilized SIM card.
• The modem is available for use (the Enabled modem status is displayed).

  If the modem is not available for use (the Not available modem status is displayed), restart Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 and check the modem availability again. Devices that access the Internet through Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 must obtain the internal network settings through the DHCP server of Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000. The relevant addresses of DNS servers from cellular network providers will be received together with these settings.
