+You have to enable receiving of SMS:

+The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, this is the only parameter:
+
+* `SmsForwardHooks`: an array with pre-defined hooks, where each hook consists
+ of `match` (which is matched against the received message), `allowed-number`
+ (which is matched against the sending phone number or name) and `command`.
+ For `match` and `allowed-number` regular expressions are supported. Actual
+ phone number (`$Phone`) and message (`$Message`) are available for the hook.
+
+> ℹ️ **Info**: Copy relevant configuration from

+
+Tips & Tricks
+-------------
+
+### Take care of harmful commands!
+
+It is easy to fake the sending phone number! So make sure you do not rely on
+that number for potentially harmful commands. Add a shared secret to match
+into the text instead, for example: `reboot-53cr3t-5tr1n9` instead of just
+`reboot`.
+
+### Order new volume
+
+Most broadband providers include a volume limit for their data plans. The
+hook functionality can be used to order new volume automatically.
+
+Let's assume an imaginary provider **ABC** sends a message when the available
+volume is about to deplete. The message is sent from `ABC` and the text
+contains the string `80%`. New volume can be ordered by sending a SMS back to
+the phone number `1234` with the text `data-plan`.
+
+ :global SmsForwardHooks {
+ { match="80%";
+ allowed-number="ABC";
+ command="/tool/sms/send lte1 phone-number=1234 message=\"data-plan\";" };
+ };
- / tool sms set receive-enabled=yes;
+Adjust the values to your own needs.
