    Hello Bjorn,
    Yes, that is on the todo list. That is exactly where I anticipate placing it also…on the dashboard.

    Due to security reasons, trying to access root level commands within the web server is a bad idea or doesn’t always work. We have a couple scripts for things like that and we have to give them special permissions within the OS sudoers file. I think my plan is to make one main “helper” bash script that can control a number of thing by issuing different switches. That way we can add other options in the web gui like being able to set a static IP, timezone, etc.

    For the time being, you can turn the web server on and off via SSH (root user).

    To turn it off:

    service svxlink stop

    To turn it back on:

    service svxlink start

    OR “Rebuild & Restart” from the Web GUI.
    OR Reboot
