3 1 INTRODUCTION The Astrid MVNO project will allow all Blue Light services (Police, Fire,...) to access their application using a mobile terminal. Applications are stored in an Astrid Datacenter This document is a user guide for an Astrid MVNO user using a Windows PC device. The prerequisites before implementing and configuring the software are: The setup file for installing Anyconnect The profile xml file to setup the connection with Astrid VPN device If needed the certificate for RSA authentication This procedure was performed and validated in collaborative teams ASTRID and Airbus Defense & Space.

4 2 MOBILE CONNECTIVITY SOFTWARE INSTALLATION In order to be able to connect to the mobile network a 3G/4G modem needs to be installed together with its appropriate software. Refer to the installation guide of your connectivity device for proper installation. Setting that need to be adjusted during the installation of the software are: In the profile management tab: - APN: blm.astrid.be - Authentication: CHAP but no username or password are needed. - If the application requires this information, roaming should be enabled. - Network registration mode should be left on automatic. Check if you are able to connect to the mobile network.

5 3 MOBILE CONNECTIVITY INSTALLATION ON PANASONIC CF-19 1) Check if your CF-19 is equipped with a 3G modem. - On the bottom of the device you can find the MODEL NO. With this MODEL NO. Your local reseller should be able to tell you whether your device is equipped with a 3G modem. - If there is a label on the bottom of the device showing an IMEI code, there s is a large chance your device is equipped with a 3G modem. 2) Enable the wireless device by putting the switch located on the left side of the device in the ON position. 3) Put your SIM card into the slot at the back of the device. 4) If the Wireless Wan Manager is not already installed on your computer, download the file: WirelessWANManagerUtil_V _52V_W764_ss11636.exe and install it. (You can download this file from the ftp.astrid.be site or from the site 5) Start the Wireless WAN Manager.

6 6) The Wireless WAN Manager will detect your SIM card and ask to enter the PIN code. 7) Ones you entered the PIN code you will have to configure the Wireless WAN Manager by going to the Settings pane 8) In the Settings pane, check the Launch Wireless Manager at Windows startup button and click on the Advanced button.

7 9) If a windows pups up with the message: Foreign network detected, just click on Yes and continue with the setup. 10) In the advanced setting, go to the Profiles pane, select Manual selection and click on the New button to make a new profile. 11) Give the new profile the name BLM, and assign it the APN name blm.astrid.be. Dummy username and password can be used e.g. test/test as these are not checked by the system.

8 12) In the Protocols pane select CHAP as authentication protocol and SAVE the profile. 13) Again in the Advanced settings, select Manual selection, choose the BLM profile, and click on Apply and Close.

9 14) Now you should be able to connect the ASTRID BLM network. In the connection pane Click on Connect to set up the PDP connection. 15) The Wireless WAN Manager might ask you again if you want to connect to a foreign network. You can just click on Yes. This is normal due to the fact that ASTRID BLM is a roaming network.

10 16) If all settings are right, the Wireless WAN Manager should go into Connecting state, and get connected. Congratulations! You are now connected to the ASTRID BLM network. If you have a Clear SIM card, you should be now able to connect to your application(s) or Internet, depending the access right requested for that SIM Card. If you have a VPN SIM card, please proceed to paragraph 4 Installation of the AnyConnect software client.

11 17) In order to turn off the wireless connection you can use the Wireless ON/OFF switch on the left side of the device.
