RUTM31 Site Manager Devices

The information in this page is updated in accordance with firmware version RUTM_R_00.07.20.3.

Summary

Site Manager is a centralized management interface used to configure, monitor, and maintain devices and services within a site. This gives administrators the ability to view device status, grouping, and change device settings.

Overview

The Devices > Overview page provides a centralized view of all devices discovered or managed within the site.

When you first visit the overview page, you will be asked if you want to enable the website manager feature:

Once the feature is enabled, the site manager automatically scans the network and searches for supported devices (currently TAP and TSW series devices are supported).

This page is used to:

View all detected devices at the site level

Check device pairing and firmware status

Identify devices by name and MAC address

Initiate device management actions (e.g., pairing)

To start pairing the devices, press the "Pair" button (status changes from Unpaired -> Pairing -> Syncing -> Paired). Note: sometimes you are asked to enter the device password. Note: After successful pairing, the devices WebUI becomes unavailable.

Actions

There are two actions types when devices are paired.

Edit action for TAP access points:

(Main) - allows you to change the main settings of the controlled device:

Field	Value	Description
Name	string; default: none	Name of the device. Used for easier device management purpose only.
Hostname	string; default:	Name of the hostname.
Synchronize NTP settings	off | on; default: off	Synchronize NTP settings with manager device.
Troubleshoot file	-(interactive button)	Downloads the device's Troubleshoot file. It contains the device's configuration information, logs and some other files.

(Network) - allows you to change the main network settings of the controlled device:

Field	Value	Description
Mode	DHCP | Static | Static + DHCP; default: DHCP	Name of the device. Used for easier device management purpose only.
Management VLAN	default | Add new; default: default	A management VLAN is the VLAN that is used to separate management and user data traffic for remotely manage, control, and monitor the devices in you network.
IPv4 address	IPv4; default: none	Your router's address on the network.
IPv4 netmask	netmask; default: 255.255.255.0	Netmask defines how 'large' a network is.
IPv4 gateway	IPv4; 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.
IPv6 address	IPv6; default: none	The IPv6 address interface of this interface. An IP address identifies a device on a network and allows it to communicate with other devices.
IPv6 gateway	IPv6; default: none	The IPv6 gateway address used by this interface. An interface's default gateway is the default address through which all outgoing traffic is directed.
DNS servers	IPv4; default: none	DNS server addresses that this interface will use. If left empty, DNS servers are assigned automatically.

Status action for TAP access points:

Displays basic information about the paired TAP device and allows you to perform three main functions: edit device settings (RUTM31_Site_Manager#Edit_action_for_TAP_access_points:), reboot the device, or upgrade it:

Edit action for TSW switches:

(Main) - allows you to change the main settings of the controlled device:

Field	Value	Description
Name	string; default: none	Name of the device. Used for easier device management purpose only.
Hostname	string; default:	Name of the hostname.
Synchronize NTP settings	off | on; default: off	Synchronize NTP settings with manager device.
Troubleshoot file	-(interactive button)	Downloads the device's Troubleshoot file. It contains the device's configuration information, logs and some other files.

(Network) - allows you to change the main network settings of the controlled device:

Field	Value	Description
Protocol	DHCP | Static | DHCPv6; default: DHCPv6	Operation protocol of a network interface. Manually configured device with a constant IP address that never changes:e.g., Static Protocol that automatically provides temporary IP address to the device that could change on a regular basis:e.g., DHCP The primary distinction between DHCPv6 and DHCP is that DHCP uses MAC addresses to identify clients, whereas DHCPv6 uses Unique Identifiers.:e.g., DHCPv6
VLAN	list; default: vlan1	Logical overlay network that will be used to isolate the traffic for each group of devices that share a physical LAN.
IPv4 address	IPv4; default:	Your router's address on the network.
IPv4 netmask	netmask; default: 255.255.255.0	Netmask defines how 'large' a network is.
IPv4 gateway	IPv4; default: none	The address where the device will send all the outgoing traffic.
IPv6 address	IPv6; default: none	Assigns an IPv6 address for this interface. CIDR notation: address/prefix.
IPv6 gateway	IPv6; default: none	IPv6 default gateway.
DNS servers	IPv4; default: none	Servers that will be used for matching website hostnames (e.g. example.com) to their corresponding Internet Protocol or IP addresses. Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses may be used.

(Port Settings) - allows you to change port settings of the controlled device:

Field	Value	Description
Port name	string; default: none	Name of the port. This is only used for easier management purposes.
Enable	off | on; default: on	Toggle port on or off.
PoE	off | on; default: on	Enable Power over Ethernet.
EEE	off | on; default: on	Enable Energy-Efficient Ethernet.

To change more `port settings` select port and press `edit` button:

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: on	Toggle port on or off.
Port name	string; default: none	Name of the port. This is only used for easier management purposes.
EEE	off | on; default: on	Enable Energy-Efficient Ethernet.
Auto negotiation	off | on; default: off	Auto negotiation allows the device to communicate with devices on the other end of the link to determine the optimal duplex mode and speed for the port.
Advertisement	10 Mbps-Half | 10 Mbps-Full | 100 Mbps-Half | 100 Mbps-Full | 1000 Mbps-Full; default:	Advertises preferred duplex mode and speed for negotiation with other devices.
Isolate port	off | on; default: off	When enabled port will be isolated from other isolated ports. Traffic between isolated ports will droped. Traffic between isolated and normal ports will be sent as normal.
Link speed	10Mbps (E) | 100Mbps (FE); default: 10Mbps (E)	A measure of how fast ports are able to transmit and receive data.
Duplex	Full | Half; default: Full	Bidirectional communication system that allows both end nodes to send and receive communication data or signals. Full - sends and receives simultaneously. Half - sends or receives one path at a time.
PoE	off | on; default: on	Enable Power over Ethernet.

Status action for TSW switches:

Displays basic information about the paired TSW device and allows you to perform three main functions: edit device settings (RUTM31_Site_Manager#Edit_action_for_TSW_switches:), reboot the device, or upgrade it:

Groups

The Devices › Groups page in Site Manager is used to view, create, and manage device groups by platform type. Device groups help organize and apply configurations to similar devices (such as access points or switches) in a centralized way.

To `add` a new group, enter a name and select device type. To `edit`, press edit button next to the group:

Field	Value	Description
Group name	string; default: default_tap/switch	Name of the group.
Default group	off | on; default: on	Turn on to set this group as the default.
Platform	Access points | Switches; default:	Device type.

General Settings

On the General Settings page, you can enable or disable the Site Manager service and change passwords across all devices. Device password will be updated upon pairing.

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: on	Enable or disable Site manager service.
New password	string; default:	New password across all devices.
Confirm new password	string; default:	Repeat new password across all devices.
