# Configure MOBILE interface

{% hint style="info" %}
The MOBILE interface may only be used in the "SMS & e-mail" operating mode (see [Configuration](/edge-aip-2.0/en/benutzeroberflaeche/konfiguration.md)).
{% endhint %}

#### Configuration

Open the menu item “Network->Mobile” to make settings on the SIM card.

1. Enter the PIN under “SIM card settings”
2. Scroll down and click on “Save & Apply”

If you want to send e-mails the mobile interface need to be activate. Open the “Network->WAN” menu and change the configuration mode from “Basic” to “Advanced”:

1. Configure the mob1s1a1 interface by clicking on “Edit” in the respective line
2. A dialog appears that allows you to configure the interface
3. Change the “Protocol” from None to Mobile
4. Confirm the settings by clicking on “Save & Apply”

Please check whether the listed interface has been assigned an IP address. The APN of the SIM card provider should also be displayed. This process may take a few seconds.

If there is no automatic dial-up to the Internet via WAN, you may have to enter the APN data manually:

1. Configure the mob1s1a1 interface again
2. Deactivate the “Auto APN” option
3. Enter the APN of your provider/provider
4. Depending on the provider, enter the PAP/CHAP
5. Enter the “Username” and “Password” of the APN.
6. Confirm the settings by clicking on “Save & Apply

Please check again whether the device dials in correctly. This process may take a few seconds.

#### Notes on network configurations

If the Edge AIP with activated MOBILE interface is to be used in a network in which IP packets are routed, a static route configuration may be required. This can be added under “Network -> Static Routes”. For the LAN interface, both the network of the AIP server and the gateway via which the packets are to be sent to the AIP server must be configured.

This is particularly relevant if the modem can no longer be reached via the routed network after it has connected to the Internet via the MOBILE interface. In this case, response packets are not sent by the LAN interface but by the MOBILE interface. If this occurs, there are two ways to access the device:

1. Switch off the modem, remove the SIM card and restart the modem.
2. Connect a device in the same network as the modem.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.videc.de/edge-aip-2.0/en/inbetriebnahme/mobile-schnittstelle-konfigurieren.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
