3 Setting up your router

3.1 Installation

After you unpack the box, follow the steps, documented below, in order to properly connect the device. For better Wi-Fi performance, put the device in clearly visible spot, as obstacles such as walls and door hinder the signal.

1. First assemble your router by attaching the necessary antennas and inserting the SIM card.

2. To power up your router, please use the power adapter included in the box. (IMPORTANT: Using a different

power adapter can damage and void the warranty for this product.).

3. If you have a wired broadband connection you will also have to connect it to the WAN port of the router.

Page 12

3.1.3 Connection status LED

Explanation of connection status LED indication:

1. Signal strength status LED’s turned on: router is turning on;

2. 2G and 3G LED’s constant blinking every 1 sec: no SIM or bad PIN;

3. 2G/3G LED’s blinking every 1 sec: connected 2G/3G, but no data session established;

4. Blinking from 2G LED to 3G LED repeatedly: SIM holder not inserted;

5. 2G/3G LED turned on: connected 2G/3G with data session;

6. 2G/3G LED blinking rapidly: connected 2G/3G with data session and data is being transferred.

3.1.4 Hardware installation

1. Insert SIM card which was given by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). Correct SIM card orientation is shown in

the picture.

2. Attach LTE and Wi-Fi antennas.

3. Connect the power adapter to the socket on the front panel of the device. Then plug the other end of the power

adapter into a wall outlet or power strip.

4. Connect to the device wirelessly (SSID: Teltonika_Router) or use Ethernet cable and plug it into any LAN Ethernet

port.

3.2 Logging in

After you’re complete with the setting up as described in the section above, you are ready to start logging into

your router and start configuring it. This example shows how to connect on Windows 7. On windows Vista: click Start -> Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Manage network Connections -> (Go to step 4). On Windows XP: Click Start -> Settings -> Network Connections -> (see step 4). You won’t see “Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4)”, instead you’ll have to select “TCP/IP Settings” and click options -> (Go to step 6)

Page 13

1. Press the start button

2. Type in “network connections”, wait for the results to

pop up.

3. Click “View network connections”

4. Then right click on your wireless device that you use to connect to other access points (It is the one with the name

“Wireless Network Connection” and has signal bars on its

icon).

We first must set up our network card so that it could properly communicate with the router.

Page 14

5. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and then click Properties

6. By default the router is going to have DHCP enabled,

which means that if you select “Obtain an IP address automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address automatically”, the router should lease you an IP and you

should be ready to login.

7. If you choose to configure manually here’s what you have to do:

First select an IP address. Due to the stock settings that your router has arrived in you can only enter an IP in the

form of 192.168.1.XXX , where XXX is a number in the range of 2-254 (192.168.1.2 , 192.168.1.254 , 192.168.1.155 and

so on… are valid; 192.168.1.0 , 192.168.1.1 , 192.168.1.255 , 192.168.1.699 and so on… are not). Next we enter the subnet mask: this has to be “255.255.255.0”. Then we enter the default gateway: this has to be “192.168.1.1”. Finally we enter primary and secondary DNS server IP’s. One will suffice, though it is good to have a secondary one as well as it

will act as a backup if the first should fail. The DNS can be your routers IP (192.168.1.1), but it can also be some external DNS server (like the one Google provides: 8.8.8.8).

Page 15

Right click on the Wireless network icon and select Connect / Disconnect. A list should pop up with all available

wireless networks. Select “Teltonika” and click connect. Then we launch our favorite browser and enter the router’s IP

into the address field:

Press enter. If there are no problems you should be greeted with a login screen such as this:

Enter the default password, which is “admin01” into the “Password” field and then either click Login with your

mouse or press the Enter key. You have now successfully logged into the RUT240!

From here on out you can configure almost any aspect of your router.

4 Operation Modes

The RUT2xx series router supports various operation modes. It can be connected to the internet (WAN) via mobile, standard Ethernet cable or via a wireless network. When connecting to the internet, you may also backup your main WAN connection with one or two backup connections. Any interface can act like backup if configured so. At first router uses its main WAN connection, if it is lost then router tries to connect via backup with higher priority and if that fails too, router tries the second backup option.

In later sections it will be explained, in detail, how to configure your router to work in a desired mode.

5 Powering Options

The RUT2xx router can be powered from power socket

5.1 Powering the device from higher voltage

If you decide not to use our standard 9 VDC wall adapters and want to power the device from higher voltage (15 – 30 VDC), please make sure that you choose a power supply of high quality. Some power supplies can produce voltage peaks significantly higher than the declared output voltage, especially during connection.

While the device is designed to accept input voltage of up to 30 VDC, peaks from high voltage power supplies can harm the device. If you want to use high voltage power supplies it is recommended to also use additional safety equipment to suppress voltage peaks from the power supply.

Usually the gateway has some predefined DNS servers. As such the

router, when it needs to resolve a hostname (“www.google.com”, “www.cnn.com”, etc…) to an IP address, it will forward all the DNS

requests to the gateway. By entering custom DNS servers the router will take care of host name resolution. You can enter multiple DNS servers to provide redundancy in case the one of the server fails.

7.2.2.2.3 PPPoE

Page 51

7.2.2.2.4 IP Aliases

IP aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network.

As you can see, the configuration is very similar to the static protocol; only in the example a 99th subnet is

defined. Now if some device has an IP in the 99 subnet (192.168.99.xxx) and the subnet’s gateway metric is “higher” and

the device is trying to reach the internet it will reroute it’s traffic not to the gateway that is defined in common configurations but through the one that is specified in IP aliases.

You may also optionally define a broadcast address and a custom DNS server.

7.2.2.2.5 Backup WAN configuration

Backup WAN is a function that allows you to back up your primary connection in case it goes down. There can be two backup connections selected at the same time, in that case, when the primary connection fails, the router tries to use the backup with higher priority and if that is unavailable or fails too, then router tries the backup with the lower priority.

Page 52

Field Name

Explanation

Health monitor Interval

Disable/5/10/20/30/60/120 Seconds

The interval at which health checks are performed

Health monitor ICMP host(s)

Disable/DNS Server(s) /WAN GW/Custom

Indicate where to Ping for a health check. As there is no definitive way to determine when the connection to internet is down for good, you’ll have to define a host whose availability is that of the internet as a whole.

Health monitor ICMP timeout

1/3/4/5/10 Seconds

How long to wait for an ICMP request to come back. Set a higher value if your connection has high latency or high jitter (latency spikes).

Attempts before failover

1/3/5/10/15/20

How many failed checks before your WAN connection is declared DOWN for good.

Attempts before recovery

1/3/5/10/15/20

How many checks before your WAN connection is declared UP.

The majority of the options consist of timing and other important parameters that help determine the health of your primary connection. Regular health checks are constantly performed in the form of ICMP packets (Pings) on your primary connection. When the connection’s state starts to change (READY->NOT READY and vice versa) a necessary amount of failed or passed health checks has to be reached before the state changes completely. This delay is instituted

so as to mitigate “spikes” in connection availability, but it also extends the time before the backup link can be brought

up or down.

7.2.2.3 How do I set up a backup link?

First we must select a main link and choose one or two backup links in WAN section. Then push the “Edit” button

and configure your WAN and Backup Wan settings to your liking. Click Save and wait until the settings are applied. Now in the Status -> Network Information -> WAN page there should be a status indication for the backup WAN. If everything is working correctly you should see something like this:

The above picture shows the status for Backup WAN configured on a wired main link. You can now simulate a downed link by simply unplugging your Ethernet WAN cable. When you’ve done so you should see this:

And, if you plug the cable back in you should, again, see this:

Start

100

The starting address of the range that the DHCP server can use to give out to devices. E.g.: if your LAN IP is 192.168.2.1 and your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 that means that in your network a valid IP address has to be in the range of [192.168.2.1 – 192.168.2.254](192.168.2.0 and 192.168.2.255 are special unavailable addresses). If the Start value is set to 100 then the DHCP server will only be able to lease out addresses starting from 192.168.2.100

Limit

150

How many addresses the DHCP server gets to lease out. Continuing on the above example: if the start address is 192.168.2.100 then the end address will be

192.168.2.254 (100 + 155 – 1 = 254).

Lease time

How long a leased IP will be considered valid. An IP address after the specified amount of time will expire and the device that leased it out will have to request a new one. Select Hours or Minutes (minimum 2min).

7.3.2 DHCP Server

The DHCP server is the router’s side service that can automatically configure the TCP/IP settings of any device that requests such a service. If you connect a device that has been configured to obtain IP address automatically the DHCP server will lease an IP address and the device will be able to fully communicate with the router.

7.4 Wireless

On this page you can configure your wireless settings. Depending on whether your WAN mode is set to Wi-Fi or not, the page will display either the options for configuring an Access Point or options for configuring a connection to a local access point.

Access Point:

Here you can see the Overview of the wireless configuration. It is divided into two main sections – device and interface. One is dedicated to configuring hardware parameters, the other – software.

Here you can toggle the availability of the wireless radio and the physical channel frequency.

Important note: As seen in the picture you should always Save before toggling the radio on and off.

SSID – Your wireless network’s identification string. This is the name of your Wi-Fi network. When other Wi-Fi capable computers or devices scan the area for Wi-Fi networks they will see your network with this name.

Hide SSID – Will render your SSID hidden from other devices that try to scan the area.

Connect to WRP100 automatically – let Teltonika WRP100 wireless repeater connect to this router automatically.

7.4.1.1.1 Advanced Settings

Here you can configure more advanced parameters:

7.4.1.2 Interface

7.4.1.2.1 Security

Encryption – there are many modes of encryption, a distinctive class is pointed out below.

Page 60

First select an encryption method: TKIP, CCMP, TKIP&CCMP and auto. Note: Some authentication methods won’t

support TKIP (and TKIP&CCMP) encryption. After you’ve selected your encryption method, you should enter your pass phrase, which must be at least 8 characters long.

7.4.1.2.2 MAC-Filter

Filter – you can define a rule for what to do with the MAC list you’ve defined. You can either allow only the listed MACs or allow ALL, but forbid the listed ones.

7.4.1.2.3 Advanced settings

Separate clients – prevents Wi-Fi clients from communicating with each other on the same subnet.

Increase TTL packet size – increase TTL packet size for incoming packets.

7.4.1.3 Client

RUT230 can work as a Wi-Fi client. Client mode is nearly identical to AP, except for the fact that most of the options are dictated by the wireless access point that the router is connecting to. Changing them can result in an interrupted connection to an AP.

In addition to standard options you can also click the Scan button to re-scan the surrounding area to attempt to connect to a new wireless access point.

7.6 Firewall

In this section we will look over the various firewall features that come with RUT230.

7.6.1 General Settings

The router’s firewall is a standard Linux iptables package, which uses routing chains and policies to facilitate

control over inbound and outbound traffic.

*DEFAULT: When a packet goes through a firewall chain it is matched against all the rules for that specific chain. If no rule matches said packet, an according Action (either Drop or Reject or Accept) is performed.

Accept – Packet gets to continue down the next chain.

Drop – Packet is stopped and deleted.

Reject – Packet is stopped, deleted and, differently from Drop, an ICMP packet containing a message of rejection is sent to the source of the dropped packet.

Page 63

7.6.2 DMZ

By enabling DMZ for a specific internal host (e.g.: your computer), you will expose that host and it’s services to the router’s WAN network (i.e. - internet).

7.6.3 Port Forwarding

Here you can define your own port forwarding rules.

You can use port forwarding to set up servers and services on local LAN machines. The above picture shows how you can set up a rule that would allow a website that is being hosted on 192.168.1.109, to be reached from the outside by entering http://routersExternalIp:12345/.

7.6.6 DDOS Prevention

7.6.6.1 SYN Flood Protection

SYN Flood Protection allows you to protect your router from attacks that exploit part of the normal TCP three-way handshake to consume resources on the targeted server and render it unresponsive. Essentially, with SYN flood DDoS, the offender sends TCP connection requests faster than the targeted machine can process them, causing network saturation.

7.6.6.4 HTTP Attack Prevention

HTTP attacks send a complete, legitimate HTTP header, which includes a 'Content-Length' field to specify the size of the message body to follow. However, the attacker then proceeds to send the actual message body at an extremely slow rate (i.e. 1 byte/110 seconds). Due to the entire message being correct and complete, the target server will attempt to obey the 'Content-Length' field in the header, and wait for the entire body of the message to be transmitted, hence slowing it down.

8.4 VPN

8.4.1 OpenVPN

VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a method for secure data transfer through unsafe public network. This section explains how to configure OpenVPN, which is implementation of VPN supported by the RUT900 router.

A picture below demonstrates default OpenVPN configurations list, which is empty, so you have to define a new configuration to establish any sort of OpenVPN connection. To create it, enter desired configuration name in “New configuration name” field, select device role from “Role” drop down list. For example, to create an OpenVPN client with configuration name demo, select client role, name it “demo” and press “Add New” button as shown in the following picture.

Page 82

To see at specific configuration settings press “edit” button located in newly created configuration entry. A new page with detailed configuration appears, as shown in the picture below (TLS client example).

Page 83

Field name

Explanation

Enabled

Switches configuration on and off. This must be selected to make configuration active.

TUN/TAP

Selects virtual VPN interface type. TUN is most often used in typical IP-level VPN connections, however, TAP is required to some Ethernet bridging configurations.

Protocol

Defines a transport protocol used by connection. You can choose here between TCP and UDP.

Port

Defines TCP or UDP port number (make sure, that this port allowed by firewall).

LZO

This setting enables LZO compression. With LZO compression, your VPN connection will generate less network traffic; however, this means higher router CPU loads. Use it carefully with high rate traffic or low CPU resources.

Encryption

Selects Packet encryption algorithm.

Authentication

Sets authentication mode, used to secure data sessions. Two possibilities you have here:

“Static key” means, that OpenVPN client and server will use the same secret key, which must be uploaded to the router using “Static pre-shared key” option. “TLS” authentication mode

uses X.509 type certificates. Depending on your selected OpenVPN mode (client or server) you have to upload these certificates to the router: For client: Certificate Authority (CA), Client certificate, Client key. For server: Certificate Authority (CA), Server certificate, Server key and Diffie-Hellman (DH) certificate used to key exchange through unsafe data networks. All mention certificates can be generated using OpenVPN or Open SSL utilities on any type host machine. Certificate generation and theory is out of scope of this user manual.

TLS cipher

Packet encryption algorithm (cipher)

Remote host/IP address

IP address of OpenVPN server (applicable only for client configuration).

10.

Resolve Retry

Sets time in seconds to try resolving server hostname periodically in case of first resolve failure before generating service exception.

11.

Keep alive

Defines two time intervals: one is used to periodically send ICMP request to OpenVPN server, and another one defines a time window, which is used to restart OpenVPN service, if no ICPM request is received during the window time slice. Example Keep Alive “10 60”

12.

Remote network IP address

IP address of remote network, an actual LAN network behind another VPN endpoint.

Certificate authority is an entity that issues digital certificates. A digital certificate certifies the ownership of a public key by the named subject of the certificate.

18.

Client certificate

Client certificate is a type of digital certificate that is used by client systems to make authenticated requests to a remote server. Client certificates play a key role in many mutual

You can set custom settings here according to your VPN needs. Below is summary of parameters available to set:

19.

Client key

Authenticating the client to the server and establishing precisely who they are

After setting any of these parameters press “Save” button. Some of selected parameters will be shown in the configuration list table. You should also be aware of the fact that router will launch separate OpenVPN service for every configuration entry (if it is defined as active, of course) so the router has ability to act as server and client at the same time.

Page 85

8.4.2 IPSec

The IPsec protocol client enables the router to establish a secure connection to an IPsec peer via the Internet. IPsec is supported in two modes - transport and tunnel. Transport mode creates secure point to point channel between two hosts. Tunnel mode can be used to build a secure connection between two remote LANs serving as a VPN solution.

IPsec system maintains two databases: Security Policy Database (SPD) which defines whether to apply IPsec to a packet or not and specify which/how IPsec-SA is applied and Security Association Database (SAD), which contain Key of each IPsec-SA.

The establishment of the Security Association (IPsec-SA) between two peers is needed for IPsec communication. It can be done by using manual or automated configuration.

Note: router starts establishing tunnel when data from router to remote site over tunnel is sent. For automatic tunnel establishment used tunnel Keep Alive feature.

8.4.3 GRE Tunnel

GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation RFC2784) is a solution for tunneling RFC1812 private address-space traffic over an intermediate TCP/IP network such as the Internet. GRE tunneling does not use encryption it simply encapsulates data and sends it over the WAN.

In the example network diagram two distant networks LAN1 and LAN2 are connected.

To create GRE tunnel the user must know the following parameters:

1. Source and destination IP addresses.

2. Tunnel local IP address

3. Distant network IP address and Subnet mask.

8.4.4 PPTP

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a protocol (set of communication rules) that allows corporations to extend their own corporate network through private "tunnels" over the public Internet. Effectively, a corporation uses a wide-area network as a single large local area network. A company no longer needs to lease its own lines for wide-area communication but can securely use the public networks. This kind of interconnection is known as a virtual private network (VPN).

8.5 Dynamic DNS

Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a domain name service allowing to link dynamic IP addresses to static hostname.

To start using this feature firstly you should register to DDNS service provider (example list is given in description).

You are provided with add/delete buttons to manage and use different DDNS configurations at the same time!

You can configure many different DDNS Hostnames in the main DDNS Configuration section.

To edit your selected configuration, hit Edit.

This option allows you to select specific RUT interface, and then send the IP address of that interface to DDNS server. So if, for example, your RUT has Private IP (i.e. 10.140.56.57) on its WAN (3G interface), then you can send this exact IP to DDNS server by selecting "Private", or by selecting "Custom" and "WAN" interface. The DDNS server will then resolve hostname queries to this specific IP.
