Summary

The Setup Wizard is a tool that offers a simplified version of other WebUI pages used to set some of the most relevant device parameters:

You will be greeted with the Setup Wizard the first time you login, after you have changed the device default password. On other logins you will be redirected to the Overview page, but you can reach the Setup Wizard any time via the System → Setup Wizard page.

This page is an overview of the Setup Wizard tool for RUT300 devices.

Set new password

On your very first login you will be required to change the device default password. This is done for safety reasons. In many cases devices are used to provide access to remote networks and systems. Since many manufacturers use similar default passwords (like admin, admin01, admin123, etc.) it is easy for attackers to gain access to devices that use such passwords and compromise the systems behind them. Therefore, to avoid such malicious attacks, this step is mandatory and you will not able to access the rest of the WebUI before you change the password.

The new password must contain:

  • 8-32 characters;
  • at least one upper case letter;
  • at least one lower case letter;
  • at least one digit;
  • at least one special characters (~`! @#$%^&*()-_+={}[]|\;:"<>,./?).

After you have entered the new password, click 'Submit'. Afterwards you will be redirected to the first page of the Setup Wizard.

General

The General section is used to configure the device's time, language and WebUI mode settings.

If you wish to set the device's time zone settings later instead, you can do so via the Administration → NTP page.

LAN

The LAN section is used to configure the device's local area network (LAN) and DHCP server settings. A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server can automatically configure the TCP/IP settings for any device that requests such a service. If you connect a device that has been configured to obtain an IP address automatically, the DHCP server will lease out an IP address from the available IP pool and the device will be able to communicate within the device's private network.

Field Value Description
IPv4 address ip; default: 192.168.1.1 The LAN interface's IPv4 address. An IP address identifies a device on a network and allows it to communicate with other devices.
IPv4 netmask netmask; default: 255.255.255.0 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 the device.
Enable DHCPv4 off | on; default: on Turns the DHCPv4 server on or off.
Enable DHCPv6 off | on; default: on Turns the DHCPv6 server on or off.

If you wish to set the device's LAN and DHCP settings later instead, you can do so via the Network → RUT300_DHCP page.


RMS

This section is used to configure the settings required to connect the device to the RMS (Remote Management System) - a cloud system designed by Teltonika and intended for remote monitoring and management of Teltonika-Networks products.

In order to add a device(s) to RMS, get yourself acquainted by watching this instructional video and register an account by clicking here. Each unique device receives a free month-long RMS license when added to RMS for the first time.

Field Value Description
Connect - (interactive button) Initiates communication with RMS.
Connection type Enabled | Standby | Disabled; default: Enabled Defines how the device will connect to RMS:
  • Enabled - RMS functionality is always on. When disconnected from RMS, the device will try connecting every 2-5 minutes (every 2 minutes the first hour; then every 5 minutes). If the device is disconnected from RMS for 14 days, it will go into Standby mode. When trying to connect to rms without internet connection, the router will try to reestablish connection every 10 seconds.
  • Standby - The device tries to establish a connection with the server infrequently (6 hours in-between attempts). This is done in order to reduce mobile traffic. In order to start using RMS, user intervention is not necessary from the device's side. Worst case scenario - RMS connection will be established 6 hours after the device was added to RMS.
  • Disabled - RMS functionality is completely disabled; therefore, no connection attempts are made. In order to start using RMS, the user must enable the service on the device's side.
Authentication code string; default: none Authentication code provided by RMS after adding the device.

If you wish to set the device's RMS settings later instead, you can do so via the Services → Cloud Solutions → RMS page.
