UCI commands provide the user with the maximum degree of control since they can be issued via many different forms of router monitoring and administration (SSH, CLI, SMS, JSON-RPC) and can be used to set or get any router parameter. This chapter is a guide on how to use UCI commands with RUT devices.

==How do I execute UCI commands?==
UCI commands can executed via the following methods:
*'''SSH''' - you can use UCI commands via SSH either with Linux OS's Terminal app or the PuTTY app with Windows OS
*'''CLI''' - you can use UCI commands via the Command Line Interface found in the router's '''[[CLI|WebUI]]'''
*'''SMS''' - you can execute UCI commands via SMS messages with the SMS Utilities '''[[SMS_Utilities#UCI_API_rule|uci api]]''' rule
*'''JSON-RPC''' - you can execute UCI commands via JSON-RPC. Refer to this guide for more information: '''[[Monitoring via JSON-RPC]]'''

The first step sets the start address to 2 and the limit of addresses to 199. The value of the ''start'' option is associated with the last section of an IP address (if start value is '''2''' then the starting IP address is 192.168.1.'''2'''(provided that the router's LAN IP is in the 192.168.1.0/24 network)), the value of the ''limit'' option denotes how many IP addresses can be leased out starting from and including the the start address. Then the second step is used to set the lease time. The ''letter'' option specifies the unit of time measurement (either ''m'' for minutes or ''h'' for hours). The ''time'' option specifies number of minutes (or hours in other cases) and the ''leasetime'' option is just the representation (nonetheless, it's still mandatory) of the previous two values, i.e., 30m - thirty minutes.
