A USB key service is available on the SPN gateway. It can be used to:

• Configure the gateway.
• Configure the end-devices fleet.
• Receive frames from end-devices.
• Debug / troubleshoot the gateway.

In order to activate the USB key features a USB folder structure must be respected. When all the features are available, the structure is:

On USB key root directory, create a file “spn/password/XXXXXXXX_password” which must contain “spn” user password.

Depending on the feature that will be used, different files must be created/added in the folders. Refer to the USB features section to determine which file should be added in wich folder.

Once the folders, the feature specific files and the password files are created, the USB key can be plugged. During the execution of the USB key the led behaviour of the iFemtoCell is the following:

1) The red power LED is blinking during USB commands processing.
2) Once all commands are processed, the LED is kept switched on. The USB key can be removed.
3) Once the USB key is unplugged, the LED is switched off.

From firmware 2.0.3, all features are detailed both in the web interface and hereunder.
