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.

3.1.1 Front Panel and Back Panel

3.1.2 Connection status LED indication

Constant blinking (~ 2Hz) – router is turning on. LED turned off – it has no 4G data connection LED turned on – it has 4G data connection.

Explanation of connection status LED indication:

1. Green and red blinking alternatively ever 500 ms: no SIM or bad PIN;

2. Green, red and yellow blinking alternatively every 500 ms: connecting to GSM;

3. Red blinking every 1 sec: connected 2G, but no data session established;

4. Yellow blinking every 1 sec: connected 3G, no data session established;

5. Green blinking every 1 sec: connected 4G, no data session established;

Red lit and blinking rapidly while data is being transferred: connected 2G with data session; Yellow lit and blinking rapidly while data is being transferred: connected 3G with data session; Green lit and blinking rapidly while data is being transferred: connected 4G with data session;

1. Press the start button

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

up.

SIM 1 (primary)

SIM 2 (secondary)

3.1.3 Hardware installation

1. Remove back panel and insert SIM card which was given by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). Correct SIM card

orientation is shown in the picture.

2. Attach LTE main 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 Centre -> 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)

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

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).

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).

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 routers 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 RUT950!

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

4 Operation Modes

The RUT9xx 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 RUT9xx router can be powered from power socket or over Ethernet port. Depending on your network architecture you can use LAN 1 port to power the device.

RUT9xx can be powered from power socket and over Ethernet simultaneously. Power socket has higher priority meaning that the device will draw power from power socket as long as it is available.

When RUT9xx is switching from one power source to the other it loses power for a fraction of the second and may reboot. The device will function correctly after the reboot.

Though the device can be powered over Ethernet port it is not compliant with IEEE 802.3af-2003 standard. Powering RUT9xx from IEEE 802.3af-2003 power supply will damage the device as it is not rated for input voltages of PoE standard.

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 power supply of high quality. Some power supplies can produce voltage peaks significantly higher than the declared output voltage, especially during connecting and disconnecting them.

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 power supply.

Connection type

PPP / NDIS

PPP mode uses dialling number to establish data connection. NDIS mode (default) does not use dialling and PPP protocol to establish data connection it is usually faster than PPP mode.

Mode

NAT / Passthrough / Use bridge

NAT mode enables network address translation on router. Bridge mode bridges LTE data connection with LAN. In this mode the router does not have internet connection as ISP provides IP directly to end device (PC, tablet or smart phone).Using Bridge mode will disable most of the router capabilities and you can access your router's settings only by using static IP address on your end device. Passthrough mode is similar with bridge mode except that in passthrough mode router does have internet connection.

Warning: If an invalid PIN number was entered (i.e. the entered PIN does not match the one that was used to protect the SIM card), your SIM card will get blocked. To avoid such mishaps it is highly advised to use an unprotected SIM. If you happen to insert a protected SIM and the PIN number is incorrect, your card won’t get blocked immediately, although after a couple of reboots OR configuration saves it will.

7.1.1.1.1 Passthrough mode

Using Passthrough Mode will disable most of the router capabilities!

DHCP mode: Static

Enter your computer MAC address (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) to MAC Address field and select Lease time (expire time for lease addresses). Device, which MAC address will be entered, will get IP from GSM operator. Other connected devices to the router LAN will get IP from router DHCP server, but these devices will not have internet access.

DHCP mode: Dynamic

Using Dynamic mode, device will get IP from GSM operator , which connect to the router firstly. Using Passthrough in dynamic mode, the DHCP in LAN will be disabled.

DHCP mode: No DHCP

Using no DHCP mode, IP (also subnet, gateway and DNS) from GSM operator should be entered in device, which is connected to the router LAN, manually. Using Passthrough in no DHCP mode, the DHCP in LAN will be disabled.

Override MAC address of the WAN interface. If your ISP gives you a static IP address it might also bind it to your computers MAC address (i.e. that IP will only work with your computer). In this field you can enter your computers MAC address and fool the gateway in thinking that it is communicating with your computer.

Override MTU

1500

Maximum Transmission Unit – specifies the largest possible size of a data packet.

Use gateway metric

The WAN configuration by default generates a routing table entry. With this field you can alter the metric of that entry.

Field name

Sample value

Explanation

7.2.2.2.3 PPPoE

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 subnets 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 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 primary connection fails, router tries to use backup with higher priority and if that is unavailable or fails too, then router tries the backup with lower priority.

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 connections 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.

Field Name

Sample value

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

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 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 checks should fail for your WAN connection to be declared DOWN for good.

Attempts before recovery

1/3/5/10/15/20

How many checks should pass for your WAN connection to be declared UP.

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:

7.3 LAN

This page is used to configure the LAN network, where all your devices and computers that you connect to the router will reside.

7.3.1 Configuration

7.3.1.1 General Setup

7.3.1.2 Advanced settings

Field Name

Sample value

Explanation

DHCP

Enable / Disable/ DHCP Relay

Manage DHCP server

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 + 150 – 1 = 254).

Lease time

How long can a leased IP 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 for a new one. Select Hour or Minute (minimum 2min).

7.3.2 DHCP Server

The DHCP server is the router 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.

7.3.2.1 General Setup

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 some 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 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 networks 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.

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 only 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

RUT9xx can work as a Wi-Fi client. Client mode is nearly identical to AP, except for the fact that most for 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 rescan the surrounding area and 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 RUT9.

7.6.1 General Settings

The routers firewall is a standard Linux iptables package, which uses routing chains and policies to facilitate control over inbound and outbound traffic.

Field Name

Sample value

Explanation

Drop Invalid packets

Checked/Unchecked

A “Drop” action is performed on a packet that is determined to be invalid

Input

Reject/Drop/Accept

DEFAULT* action that is to be performed for packets that pass through the Input chain.

Output

Reject/Drop/Accept

DEFAULT* action that is to be performed for packets that pass through the Output chain.

Forward

Reject/Drop/Accept

DEFAULT* action that is to be performed for packets that pass through the Forward chain.

*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.

7.6.2 DMZ

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

To that port on the internal machine the rule will redirect the traffic.

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/.

When you click edit you can fine tune a rule to near perfection, if you should desire that.

7.6.6.4 HTTP Attack Prevention

HTTP attack sends 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 (e.g. 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.

8.5 VPN

8.5.1 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 RUT9 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.

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).

Field name

Explanation

Enabled

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

LZO

This setting enables LZO compression. With LZO compression, your VPN connection will

There can be multiple server/client instances.

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

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.

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 authentication designs, providing strong assurances of a requester's identity.

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.

8.5.2 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.
