Select valid user number max. 5 and add authorized phone number in the main menu where want to find the alert and click on SMS Response Enable, save and update button, now send SMS commands from the configured mobile number. Once the commands are received from the user phone number the board send acknowledgement as per the commands after that it will send the router’s status once it has rebooted and is operational again.
Mentioned below are a few commands which can be sent from the configured mobile number to the router device. Below two commands are One for rebooting the router device and another to get the uptime.
1) {"device":["passkey","API key"],"command":"reboot","arguments":"hardware"}
2) {"device":["passkey ","API key"],"command":"uptime"}
After configuring all the required information, the user should click on the save and then click on the update to update the all the required information.
