Date & Time

Summary


Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. This chapter is an overview of the NTP section for OTD140 devices.

General


The Time Synchronization section lets you select time zone and synchronize the time.

The figure below is an example of the Time Synchronization section and the table below provides information about the fields contained in that section:

Networking rutos ntp general gps 0 v2.png

Field Value Description

Operator Station Synchronization off | on; default: off Synchronizes time with mobile operator's base station.
Timezone Synchronization off | on; default: off Sync time data with mobile operator.

Time Servers


This section is used to specify which time servers the device will use for time synchronization. To add more time servers to the list, click the 'Add' button.

Networking rutos ntp ntp time servers v3.png

Field Value Description
Hostname ip | url; default: time[x].google.com NTP servers that this device uses to sync time.

NTP Server


The device can also act as an NTP Server, providing clock synchronization to other devices in the network. From this section you can turn this feature on or off:

Networking rutos ntp ntp server.png

NTPD


The NTPD program is an operating system daemon that synchronizes the system clock to remote NTP time servers or local reference clocks. NTPD includes the ability to use this to keep your clock in sync and will run more accurately than a clock on a device not running NTPD. NTPD will also use several servers to improve accuracy. It is a complete implementation of NTP version 4 defined by RFC-5905, but also retains compatible with version 3 defined by RFC-1305 and versions 1 and 2, defined by RFC-1059 and RFC-1119, respectively.

Note: NTPD is additional software that can be installed from the System → Package Manager page. Networking rutos ntp ntpd v2.png

Field Value Description
Enable NTPD off | on; default: off Turns NTPD on or off.
Enable NTP config from file off | on; default: off Run NTPD with uploaded configuration file.

Enable Server off | on; default: off Enables NTPD server to make the router act as an NTP server so that it can provide time synchronization services for other network devices.

User Settings

Change Password


The User settings section is used to change the password of the current user.

Networking rutos users change password v3.png

System Users


Summary


The System Users page is used to add new user accounts that can access the device with different user credentials than the default ones. The newly added users can be assigned to one of two groups, either of which can be modified to limit WebUI read/write access rights for users belonging to each specific group.

This page is unrelated to SSH users. By default, there is one SSH user named "root" and it shares the same password as the default WebUI user named "admin".

This manual page provides an overview of the Users page in OTD140 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.

Groups


The Groups section lists available user groups of which there are three:

Networking rutos users groups v2.png


  • root - highest level of authority. Key elements that define this group:
    • has unlimited read/write access;
    • additional users cannot be added to this group;
    • access rights for this group cannot be modified.

    Networking rutos manual users root visualization.png

  • admin - second highest level of authority. Key elements that define this group:
    • limited read access; by default, users belonging to this group cannot view these pages:
    • unlimited write access by default;
    • access rights can be modified.

    Networking rutos manual users admin visualization.png

  • user - lowest level of authority. Key elements that define this group:
    • no write access;
    • limited read access; by default, users belonging to this group cannot view these pages:
    • access rights can be modified.

    Networking rutos manual users user visualization.png

Additional note: you can view and/or edit settings for each group by clicking the 'Edit' button next to them. More on information on how to edit group access settings is located in the following section of this manual page.

Group Settings (edit group)

A group's parameters can be set in its Group Settings page. To access the Groups Settings page, click the 'Edit' button next to the group's name. Below is an example of the Group Settings section:

Networking rutos users groups group settings v2.png

Field Value Description
Write action Allow | Deny; default: Allow Specifies whether to deny or allow write access for users belonging the group.
Write access path(s) to page(s); default:
  • System > Administration > User Settings > Change Password
Controls the ability of users to change and execute the contents (e.g. Network > Lan).
Read action Allow | Deny; default: Deny Specifies whether to deny or allow read access for users belonging the group.
Read access path(s) to page(s); default:
  • System > Administration > User Settings > System Users
  • System > Firmware
  • System > Maintenance > Backup
  • System > Administration > Access Control
  • System > Maintenance > CLI
  • System > Maintenance > Custom Scripts
  • System > Maintenance > Troubleshoot
  • System > Package Manager
  • Network
  • System > Setup Wizard
  • Services > Mobile Utilities > Messages > Send Messages
Path(s) to the page(s) to which the selected "Read action" will be applied. Click the plus symbol to add more entries.
Examples

The easiest way to master the syntax is to navigate to page that you want to generate a path for and the copy the path from the URL of that page.

For example, to specify the path to the Network → Mobile page, navigate to the page, copy the page's URL address starting from the symbol "#" and paste it into one of the access fields:

Networking rutos users groups example url bar v1.png


However, the VPN window contains links to many different types of VPN pages. If you want to specify only one of them, you can do it as well. For example, to to specify the path to the IPsec page, add "/ipsec" to the path string:

services/vpn/ipsec

An asterisk (*) in the path string means that the every page from that point on is included in that path. For example, to generate a path that includes pages in the Services menu tab:

services/*

Or to simply include everything in the entire WebUI (if this path is combined with Read action: Deny, users from that group will not be able to login to the WebUI):

*

Users


The Users section lists all created users and provides the possibility to change their passwords and the group they belong to (with the exception of the default user "admin" which always belongs to the root group).

By default, there is only one user called "admin":

    Recipients

    The Recipients section is used to configure phone groups and email users, which can later be used along with SMS or email related services, such as Events Reporting.

    Phone Groups


    A Phone Group is a collection of phone numbers that can be used as the recipient in SMS & call related services instead of specifying every number individually. The phone group list is empty by default thus, you must first add at least one new group before you can add phone numbers to it. To create and begin editing a phone group, follow these steps:

    1. Enter a custom name for the phone group into the 'Name' field.
    2. Click the 'Add' button.

    Networking rutos manual administration recipients phone groups add button.png

    After clicking 'Edit' you should be redirected to that phone group's configuration page where you can start adding phone numbers to it.

    Phone number string; default: none A phone number entry for this group. Numbers that consist of 0-9*+# characters are accepted. Click the plus symbol to add more entries.

    Email Users


    When email related services (such as Events Reporting) are used, the device logs in to the specified email account and reads the inbox (e.g., Email to SMS) or sends out a message (e.g., SMS to Email) depending on the configured service. In this context, an Email Account is an configuration instance that contains the necessary data required in order to log into an email account.

    The email accounts list is empty by default thus, you must first add at least one new account before you can configure it. To create and begin editing an email account, follow these steps:

    1. Enter a custom name for the email account into the 'Name' field.
    2. Click the 'Add' button.

    Send test email - (interactive button) Sends an email based on the current configuration. This is used to test whether the configuration works as intended.

    Certificates

    The Certificates page is used for convenient TLS certificate and key generation and management. Generated files can be exported and used on other machines or locally on this device with functions that use TLS/SSL, such as MQTTOpenVPN, IPsec and others.

    Certificate Generation


    The Certificate Generation tab provides the possibility to generate TLS certificates required for secure authentication and communication encryption used by some of the devices services.

    There are six distinct generation methods (denoted by the selected 'File Type').

    1. Simple - generates and signs a set of 2048 bit certificate and key files that include:
      • Certificate Authority (CA)
      • Server certificate & key
      • Client certificate & key
      • DH Parameters
      The CA file generated with this option automatically signs the certificates. In short, this option is used for convenience as it doesn't let the user set any additional parameters for the certificate files. Therefore, it should be used only when no other specific requirements are expected.
    2. CA - generates a Certificate Authority (CA) file. A CA is a type of certificate file that certifies the ownership of a public key by the named subject of the certificate. In other words, it assures clients that they are connecting to a trusted server and vice versa.
    3. Server - generates a server certificate and key. A server certificate validates a server's identity to connecting clients, while a key is responsible for encryption.
    4. Client - generates a client certificate and key. A client certificate validates a client's identity to the server that it's connecting to, while a key is responsible for encryption.
    5. DH Parameters - generates a Diffie-Hellman (DH) parameters file. DH parameters are used in symmetric encryption to protect and define how OpenSSL key exchange is performed.
    6. Let's encrypt - generates SSL certificate.
    7. SCEP - generates SCEP (Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol) certificate.

    Generation Parameters


    Generating each type of file requires setting some parameters. This section provides an overview for parameters used in Simple and TLS certificate generation.


    Simple file parameters

    Networking rutos manual administartion certificates certificates generation simple parameters v1.png

    Field Value Description
    Hosts string; default: none Appends hostnames to certificates.
    IP addresses IPv4 address; default: none Appends IPv4 addresses to certificates.

    TLS parameters or simply parameters that apply to each (CA, Server, Client, DH) file type are the size and common name of the generated file(s).

    Networking rutos manual administartion certificates certificates generation core parameters v2.png

    Field Value Description
    Key Size integer; default: 2048 Generated key size in bits. Larger keys provide more security but take longer to generate. A 2048 bit is the preferred option.
    Name (CN) string; default: cert Common Name (CN), aka Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) is a parameter that defines the name of the certificate. It should be chosen with care as it is not only used for easier management. For example, the Common Name should typically hostname of the server. It may also be used to differentiate clients in order to apply client-specific settings.

    Subject information is not mandatory but can be used as user-friendly way to identify the ownership of certificate files by including such information as the owner's location and company name.

    Networking rutos manual administartion certificates certificates generation subject information v2.png


    The Sign the certificate slider control whether the certificate will be signed automatically or manually after the generation is complete.

    Networking rutos manual administartion certificates certificates generation sign the certificate v2.png

    Profile Scheduler Instance Example

    Scheduler will use profile instance if it is enabled and it's time interval matches device's date, otherwise default profile will be used.

    Example - we have 3 profiles in total:

    • default
    • Profile A
    • Profile B

    We create profile instances for Profiles A and B:

    • Profile A: 08:00 - 11:00
    • Profile B: 13:00 - 20:00

    During 11:00 - 13:00 and 20:00 - 08:00 default profile will be used.
