==='''Using VPN SIM cards'''===
 
 
If your SIM cards are within Mobile Operator’s VPN (private APN), the following must be ensured and paid special attention.
 
<br />
 
'''1.''' Must ensure that domain '''http://fm.teltonika.lt''' can be resolved from within Operator’s network.<br />
 
'''2.''' Following IP and ports (egress) must be allowed by the operator.
 
<br />
 
 
*IP: 35.156.7.140
 
*Ports:
 
**2000<br />
 
**3000<br />
 
**4000<br />
 
**5000<br />
 
**6000<br />
 
**7000<br />
 
 
When using VPN SIM cards, you should still configure '''http://fm.teltonika.lt''' domain in your configurator, '''not''' the plain IP address.
 
 
=='''Web Access'''==
 
<br />
 
FOTA is reached using domain address '''http://fm.teltonika.lt'''. FOTA uses HTTP ports 80 and 85 for authentication so if your network has HTTP proxy service or is blocking outgoing traffic – make sure that those two ports are added to exceptions in network proxy service and firewall.
