Configuration overview and prerequisites

Before we begin, let's overview the configuration that we are attempting to achieve and the prerequisites that make it possible.

Prerequisites:

  • One RUTxxx series router.
  • At least two wired Internet connections.
  • An end device for test the configuration.

Configuration scheme:

Setting up second WAN interface

To change LAN port purpose to WAN you will have to perform changes in 3 different locations of RUTxxx WebUI

Creating additional VLAN


Go to Network > VLAN section in device WebUI and perform following actions:

  • Create new VLAN ID by clicking ADD button.
  • On VLAN ID: 1 (LAN interface), select Off from drop-down list, on port that you want to use as secondary WAN.
  • On newly created VLAN ID (3 in this example), from drop-down list, select Untagged, on same port.
  • After performing these actions press Save & Apply in VLAN settings.

After switching protocol More setting options will appear.

  • Go to Physical Settings.
  • From drop-down list choose previously created VLAN interface (in this example it is eth0.300)
  • Press Apply & Save.
