The information in this page is updated in accordance with firmware version .


Summary

The WAN page is used to to set up WAN network interfaces, which are used to connect device with external networks.

This manual page provides an overview of the WAN 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.

Networking rutos manual webui basic advanced mode 75.gif

WAN

The WAN section displays WAN network interfaces currently existing on this device.

[[File:Networking_rutos_manual_wan_mobile_{{{mobile}}}_dualsim_{{{dualsim}}}_dualmodem_{{{dualmodem}}}_wired_{{{wired}}}_v3.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

From here you can turn the interfaces, enable/disable interface's failover, create interfaces, change their priority* or enter an interface's configuration page.


* You can change the priority by dragging and dropping an interface to another position. Moving an interface changes its metric value in the configuration file. Interfaces that are higher on the list have greater priority.

If you hover mouse over the question mark Networking rutos manual wan question mark.png global IPv6 addresses and IPv6 prefix delegation will be displayed.

Interface configuration

This section provides information on network interface configuration. There are {{{no_of_if}}} main types of interfaces on the device:

Different types of interfaces can be configured under different protocols:

Static DHCP DHCPv6 PPPoE

To begin configuring an interface, click the 'Edit' button on the right side of the interface:

Networking rutos manual wan interfaces edit button v3.png

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 Settings: Static


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

Field Value Description
Enable on | off; default: on Enable interface.

IPv4 netmask netmask; default: 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.

IPv6 address IPv6 addresses with or without mask prefix are accepted; default: none Assigns an IPv6 address for this interface. CIDR notation: address/prefix.
IPv6 gateway IPv6 addresses are accepted. E.g. ::0000:8a2e:0370:7334; default: none IPv6 default gateway.
IPv6 routed prefix IPv6 addresses with mask prefix are accepted E.g ::1/128; default: none Public prefix routed to this device for distribution to clients.
IPv6 suffix Allowed values: "eui64", "random", fixed value like "::1" or "::1:2"; default: none Optional. Allowed values: 'eui64', 'random', fixed value like '::1' or '::1:2'. When IPv6 prefix (like 'a:b:c:d::') is received from a delegating server, use the suffix (like '::1') to form the IPv6 address ('a:b:c:d::1') for the interface.

Physical Settings


The Physical Settings section is used to create associations with physical interfaces and bridge network interfaces.

Networking rutos manual wan configuration physical settings v2.png

Field Value Description
Bridge interfaces off | on; default: off Bridges physical interfaces specified in this configuration.
Interface network interface(s); default: wan physical interface Ties this network interface to physical device interfaces such as Ethernet.

Firewall Settings


The Firewall Settings section is used to specify to which firewall zone if any this interface belongs. Assigning an interface to a zone may provide easier configuration of firewall rules. For example, instead of configuring separate rules for each WAN interface, you can add all WAN interfaces into a single firewall zone and make the rule apply to that zone instead.

More firewall zone settings can be configured from the Network → Firewall → General Settings → [[{{{name}}}_Firewall#Zones|Zones]] section.

Field Value Description
Create / Assign firewall-zone firewall zone; default: none Assigns this interface to the specified firewall zone.
