LAN Traffic Splitting Using Advanced Static Routing Rules
Introduction
This article provides a guide on how to separate mobile data traffic within a LAN by using advanced static routing rules. These configurations are specifically made for RUTX12.
- First you want to make sure that you have ADVANCED mode enabled. This will allow you to choose from a larger variety of settings.
Prerequisites
For this particular configuration you will need:
- A Router with 2xLTE modules (RUTX12 is being used in the example)
- 2 SIM cards
- 2 PCs in the same LAN network
Preparation
- Prepare RUTX12, power up the device, insert two sim cards, check that both are active and working. SIM1, SIM2, PWR and signal strength indicators should light up.
- Access the router through WEBUI, go to Network -> Interfaces, make sure that both MOB1S1A1 and MOB2S1A1 interfaces are running (Status = Running). You should also be able to see their Ip addresses.
- Make sure that you have ADVANCED mode enabled. This will allow you to choose from a larger variety of settings.
Network -> Interfaces should look similar to this:
Configuration
1. Go to Network –> Interface -> edit MOB2S1A1 -> Advanced settings -> Set IP4table to 10. Click save and apply.
2. Go to Network -> Routing -> Advanced Static Routes -> Add new instance of Routing table. Table ID can be chosen freely, however, it later on must match in the routing rules configuration. E.G TableID = 10 and set the Name of the Table, E.G Name of Table = Example.
3. Click the edit button on next to the created routing table:
4. Configure the Static route in the following manner and click save and apply:
- interface: LAN
- Name: Example
- Target: 192.168.1.0
- IPV4-Netmask: 255.255.255.0
- Leave everything other blank
- Add the route.
