Summary
The Interfaces page is used to to set up network interfaces.
This manual page provides an overview of the Users windows in {{{name}}} devices.
If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.
Network Interfaces
The Network Interfaces section displays currently
[[File:Networking_{{{series}}}_manual_interfaces_network_interfaces_v1.png|border|class=tlt-border]]
Add Interface
The Add Interface section is used to create additional network interfaces. To create a new interface, simply enter a custom name for it and click the 'Add' button.
File:Networking rutos manual interfaces add interface v1.png
Interface configuration
This section provides information on network interface configuration. There are {{{no_of_if}}} major types of interfaces on the device:
- Ethernet LAN -
Each types utilizes
None | Static | DHCP | DHCPv6 | PPPoE | Mobile | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ethernet LAN |
To begin configuring an interface, click the 'Edit' button on the right side of the interface:

=Interfaces: if_name
This section covers all parameters directly related to a network interface.
General Setup
The General Setup section is used to configure the protocol and all the different parameters that go along with each protocol.
General Setup: Static
The static protocol uses a predefined manual configuration instead of obtaining parameters automatically via a DHCP lease.
File:Networking rutos manual interfaces network interfaces lan general setup static ip v1.png
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
IPv4 address | ip4; default[for LAN]: 192.168.1.1 | The IPv4 address interface of this interface. An IP address identifies a device on a network and allows it to communicate with other devices. |
IPv4 netmask | netmask; default[for LAN]: 255.255.255.0 | The IPv4 netmask of this interface. A netmask is used to define how "large" a network is by specifying which part of the IP address denotes the network and which part denotes a device. |
IPv4 gateway | ip4; default: none | The IPv4 gateway address used by this interface. An interface's default gateway is the default address through which all outgoing traffic is directed. |
IPv4 broadcast | ip4; default: none | The IPv4 broadcast address used by this interface. IP broadcasts are used by BOOTP and DHCP clients to find and send requests to their respective servers. |
DNS servers | ip4; default: none | DNS server addresses that this interface will use. If left empty, DNS servers are assigned automatically. To see what DNS servers are currently used, you can check the contents of the /tmp/resolv.conf.auto file. |
General Setup: DHCP
The DHCP protocol is used to set up an interface which obtains its configuration parameters automatically via a DHCP lease.
File:Networking rutos manual interfaces network interfaces lan general setup dhcp v1.png
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Hostname to send when requesting DHCP | string; default: none | A hostname for this interface used to identify this machine on the DHCP server. |
General Setup: DHCPv6
The DHCPv6 protocol is used to set up an IPv6 interface which obtains its configuration parameters automatically via a DHCP lease.
File:Networking rutos manual interfaces network interfaces lan general setup dhcpv6 v1.png
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Request IPv6-address | try | force | disabled ; default: try | Defines the behaviour for requesting an address. |
Request IPv6-prefix of length | integer [0..64] | Automatic | disabled ; default: Automatic | Defines how this will request a IPv6 ULA-Prefix length. If set to 'disabled' the interface will obtain a single IPv6 address without a subnet for routing. |
General Setup: PPPoE
The PPPoE protocol is used to set up a PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) connection over the Ethernet port(in this case: an Ethernet connection simulated over the USB port).
File:Networking rutos manual interfaces network interfaces lan general setup pppoe.png
Field | Value | Description |
---|
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
PAP/CHAP username | string; default: none | Username used in PAP/CHAP authentication. |
PAP/CHAP password | string; default: none | Password used in PAP/CHAP authentication. |
Access Concentrator | string; default: none | The Access Concentrator to connect to. ISPs used Access Concentrators to route their PPPoE connections. Usually, the settings are received automatically, however in some cases it is required to specify the name for an Access Concentrator. Leave empty to detect Access Concentrators automatically. |
Service name | string; default: none | The Service Name to connect to. Leave empty to detect Service name automatically. |
Bridge *; default: NAT Mobile connection operating mode.
- NAT - the mobile connection uses NAT (network address translation).
- Bridge - bridges the LTE data connection with LAN. In this mode the router relay the IP address received from the ISP to another LAN device (e.g., computer). Using Bridge mode will disable most of the router’s capabilities and you will only be able to access your router's WebUI with a static IP configuration.
