General Setup


The General Setup section is used to configure the protocol of an interface and all the different parameters that go along with each protocol. If None protocol is chosen, all other interface settings will be ignored. The following sections are different for each protocol.

General Setup: Static


The static protocol uses a predefined manual configuration instead of obtaining parameters automatically via a DHCP lease.

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration general setup static ip lan 1.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.

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration general setup dhcp.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.

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration general setup dhcpv6.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.

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration general setup pppoe.png

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.

General Setup: Mobile


The Mobile protocol is used to set up an interface which can establish a mobile WAN connection.

Mode: NAT

Field Value Description
Mode NAT | Bridge | Passthrough; default: NAT Mobile connection operating mode.
  • NAT - the mobile connection uses NAT (network address translation).
  • Bridge - bridges the LTE data connection with LAN. The device assigns its WAN IP address to another device (first connected to LAN or specified with MAC address). Using Bridge mode will disable most of the device’s capabilities.
  • Passthrough - in this mode the RUT900 shares its WAN IP to a single LAN device (first connected to LAN or specified with MAC address). The LAN device will get WAN IP of RUT900 instead of LAN IP. Using Passthrough mode will disable most of the device’s capabilities.
PDP Type IPv4 | IPv6 | IPv4/IPv6; default: IPv4 Specifies what of address will be requested from the operator.
SIM SIM1 | SIM2; default: SIM1 Selects which SIM slot will be used for this interface.
Auto APN off | on; default: on The Auto APN feature scans an internal Android APN database and selects an APN based on the SIM card's operator and country. If the first automatically selected APN doesn't work, it attempts to use the next existing APN from the database.
APN / Custom APN string; default: none An Access Point Name (APN) is a gateway between a GSM, GPRS, 3G or 4G mobile network and another computer network. Depending on the contract, some operators may require you to use an APN just to complete the registration on a network. In other cases, APN is used to get special parameters from the operator (e.g., a public IP address) depending on the contract.
An APN Network Identifier cannot start with any of the following strings:
  • rac;
  • lac;
  • sgsn;
  • rnc;
it cannot end in:
  • .gprs;
and it cannot contain the asterisk symbol (*).

To make the DHCP Server section visible, set interface protocol to Static.

DHCP Server: General Setup


The General Setup section is used to set up the main operating parameters of the DHCP server.

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration dhcp server general setup lan 1 v1.png

Field Value Description
Enable DHCP Enable | Disable | DHCP Relay*; default: Enable Turns the DHCP server on or off or enables DHCP relay*.
If DHCP Relay* is selected, you will be prompted to enter an IP address of another DHCP server in your LAN. In this case, whenever a new machine connects to this device, it will redirect any DHCP requests to the specified DHCP Server.
Start IP ip4; default: 192.168.1.100 The starting IP address of the DHCP server IP address range. E.g., if your device’s LAN IP is 192.168.1.1 and your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 that means that in your network a valid IP address has to be in the range of [192.168.1.0..192.168.1.254] (192.168.1.255 is a special unavailable address). If the subnet of your LAN IP address changes, this value needs to be changed accordingly.
End IP ip4; default: 192.168.1.249 The ending IP address of the DHCP server IP address range. Continuing from the example above: if the start address is 192.168.1.100 and the end address is 192.168.1.249, available addresses will be distributed from that range. If the subnet of your LAN IP address changes, this value needs to be changed accordingly.
Lease time integer [1..999999]; default: 12
integer [2..999999]*
integer [120..999999]**
A DHCP lease will expire after the amount of time specified in this field and the device that was using the lease will have to request a new one. However, if the device stays connected, its lease will be renewed after half of the specified amount of time passes (e.g., if lease time is 12 hours, then every 6 hours the device will ask the DHCP server to renew its lease).
The minimal amount of time that can be specified is 2 minutes.
*If selected Units is Minutes.
**If selected Units is seconds.
Units Hours | Minutes | Seconds; default: Hours Lease time units.

* When an interface is set to act as a DHCP Relay, it redirects all received DHCP request messages to another specified DHCP server:

Announced DNS server ip; default: none Supplements DHCP-assigned DNS server entries with ones specified in this field.
Announced DNS domains ip; default: none DNS domain handed out to DHCP clients.

Static Lease


Static IP leases are used to reserve specific IP addresses for specific devices by binding them to their MAC address. This is useful when you have a stationary device connected to your network that you need to reach frequently, e.g., printer, IP phone, etc.

This section displays static IP leases currently existing on this device.

To make the Static Lease section visible, set interface protocol to Static.


The Static Lease list is empty by default. To add a new Static Lease look to the Add Lease section; enter a custom name for the lease and click the 'Add' button.

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration static lease add button.png

You should be redirected to the Settings page for that lease, which should look similar to this:

Networking rutos manual interfaces interface configuration static lease settings.png

Field Value Description
MAC address mac; default: none MAC address of a device that will connect to this network interface.
IP address ip; default: none The IP address that will be reserved for the specified device.

After you click 'Save & Apply' you will be redirected back to the Network Interfaces page. If you wish to modify the lease later, you can find in the Static Lease list. Simply click the 'Edit' button next to it in order to enter the Settings page for the Static Lease.
