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 a clearly visible spot, as obstacles such as walls and doors hinder the signal.
1. First assemble your router by attaching the necessary antennas and inserting the SIM card(s).
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.

To find out your router’s modem brand, check the bottom of your router. You should find a sticker containing
information about the router (Serial, IMEI, LAN MAC, etc.). The first line is the router’s product code. The seventh
symbol of the code indicates the router’s modem:
 Quectel: A, H, J, K, L, M, P
 Huawei: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, B, F
 Telit: 0, 2, G
Below is an example of a sticker with a Huawei modem (the modem symbol is highlighted in yellow)

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 wont’s see “Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4)”, instead
you’ll have to select “TCP/IP Settings” and click options -> (go to step 6). On Windows 10 type “Network and Sharing
Center” into the search bar and go there. In the navigation bar on the left side of the window click “Change adapter
settings” -> (go to step 4).
We first must set up our network card so that it could properly communicate with the router.
1. Press the start button
Teltonika Solutions
2. Type in “network connections”, wait for the
results to pop up
15
RUT955 User‘s Manual
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” aand
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 address and you should be ready to login.
Teltonika Solutions

RUT955 User‘s Manual
7. If you choose to configure manually here’s what you do:
First select an IP address. Due to the stock settings
that your router has arrived with, 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
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 ,
th
192.168.1.699 and so on are not). Next we enter the
subnet mask: “255.255.255.0”. Then we enter the
default gateway: “192.168.1.1”. Finally we enter
primary and secondary DNS server IPs. One will
suffice, though it is good to have a secondary one as
fail
well as it will act as a backup if the first should fail.
The DNS can be your router’s 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 router’ss 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

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 the
router uses its main WAN connection, if it is lost then the router tries to connect via backup with higher priority and if
that fails too, the router tries the second backup option.

5 Powering Options
The RUT9xx router can be powered from a power socket or over an Ethernet port. Depending on your network
architecture you can use the LAN1 port to power the device.
RUT9xx can be powered from a power socket and over Ethernet simultaneously. The power socket has higher
priority meaning that the device will draw power from the power socket as long as it is available.
When RUT9xx is switching from one power source to another it loses power for a fraction of a second and may
reboot. The device will function correctly after the reboot.
Though the device can be powered over an Ethernet port it is not compliant with the IEEE 802.3af-2003 standard.
Powering RUT9xx from a IEEE 802.3af-2003 power supply will damage the device as it is not rated for input voltages of
the 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 a power supply of high quality. Some power supplies can produce voltage
peaks significantly higher than the declared output voltage, especially during the process of connection and
disconnection.
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.

Explanation
Defines how the router's modem will connect to the internet.
PPP mode uses a dialling number to establish a data connection.
QMI mode (default) does not use dialling or the PPP protocol to
establish a data connection and it is usually faster than PPP mode
NAT mode enables network address translation on the router.
Bridge mode bridges the LTE data connection with LAN. In this mode
the router does not have an internet connection as the ISP provides
an IP address directly to the end device. Using Bridge mode will
disable most of the router’s capabilities and you will only be able to
access your router's settings with a static IP address.
Passthrough mode works in a similar fashion to Bridge mode, except
in passthrough mode the router does have an internet connection
An Access Point Name (APN) is a gateway between a 4G mobile
network and another computer network
A personal identification number is a numeric password used to
authenticate a user to a system
A Dialling number is used to establish a mobile PPP connection
The Authentication method that your GSM carrier uses to
authenticate new connections on its network
The username used to connect to your carrier’s network. This field
becomes available when you select an authentication method (i.e.,
the selected authentication method is not “None”)
The password used to connect to your carrier’s network
Your service mode preference. If your local mobile network supports
LTE you can specify to which type of network you wish to connect. If
you select Automatic, then the router will connect to the network
that provides the best connectivity
When enabled this function prevents the device from establishing
mobile data connection while not in your home network
When enabled this function makes the device use only IPv4 settings
when connecting to an operator
When Enabled The Mobile Data On Demand function keeps the
mobile data connection on only when it is in use
The mobile data connection will be terminated if no data is
transferred during the timeout period specified in this field
When enabled this function makes the router connect to an LTE
network after every specified amount of seconds
When enabled the modem will reregister before trying to connect to
an LTE network
Time in seconds between attempts to connect to an LTE network
*Warning: If you enter an invalid PIN number (i.e. if the entered PIN does not match the one that is used in 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 Passthrough Mode
Passthrough mode is used to redirect all traffic to another device. In the process the router itself becomes
“transparent” as all traffic is redirected to another device which will also have the router’s public IP address assigned to
it.
Field name
DHCP mode*
Possible values
Static
Explanation
The Static mode requires that you enter your computer’s MAC address
(xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) and select a lease time (expiration time for the leased address.)
The device will get an IP address from your GSM operator. Other devices that are
connected to the router will get IP addresses from the router’s DHCP server, but
they will not have internet access
Dynamic
In Dynamic mode the GSM operator will connect to the router first and give out an
IP address to your computer. When using Passthrough in Dynamic mode, the
router‘s LAN DHCP server will be disabled, but it will enabled again automatically
when you switch to a different mode
No DHCP
In No DHCP mode the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS from the
GSM operator will have to be entered on your computer manually. When using
Passthrough in No DHCP mode, the router‘s LAN DHCP server will be disabled, but
it will become enabled automatically when you switch to a different mode
*Using Passthrough Mode will disable most of the router‘s capabilities!

7.2.2.3 IP Aliases
7.2.2.3.1 General setup
IP Aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network. This is
useful if you need to reach the router in the same network but in a different subnet. If you have a static IP configuration
on your computer and don’t want to change it every time you need to reach a router in a different subnet, you can
configure an IP alias in order to do so.
As you can see, the configuration is very similar to the static protocol; only in the example an IP address with a 99th
subnet is defined. If some device has an IP in the 99th subnet (e.g., 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 define a broadcast address and a custom DNS server for your IP Aliases in the Advanced Settings tab.

7.2.2.4 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 one time. In that case, when the primary connection fails, the router tries to use the
backup with the higher priority and if this one is unavailable or fails too, then the router tries the backup with the 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.

Indicate where to send ping requests for a health

sent. It is advised to set a higher value if your

7.3.2 DHCP Server
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 an IP address automatically the
DHCP server will lease out an IP address and the device will be able to communicate with the router.

Teltonika Solutions
Explanation
Enables or disables DHCP Server. If DHCP Relay is selected, you will be prompted
to enter an IP address of another DHCP server in your LAN. In this case,
Whenever a new device connects to the router, the router will redirect any DHCP
requests to the specified DHCP Server
The starting IP address value. e.g., if your router’s 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 lease out addresses starting from 192.168.2.100
How many addresses the DHCP server can lease out. Continuing from the above
example: if the start address is 192.168.2.100 and the server can lease out 150
(sample value) addresses starting from 192.168.2.100 and ending in
192.168.2.249 (100 + 150 – 1 = 249; this is because the first address is inclusive)
The duration of an IP lease. Leased out addresses will expire after the amount of
time specified in this field and the device that was using the lease will have to
send a new DHCP request to the router's DHCP server. However, if the device
stays connected, its lease will be renewed after half of the specified amount of
time passes, e.g., if the lease time is 12 hours, then every 6 hours the device will
send a request to the router asking to renew its lease. Lease time can be set in
hours or minutes. The minimal amount of time that can be specified is 2min

2.
Enabled / Disabled
Explanation
Enables Dynamic allocation of client addresses. If this is disabled,
only clients that have static IP leases will be served
Enables DNS rebind attack protection by discarding upstream
RFC1918 responses (leave default unless necessary otherwise)
By default the router’s DHCP server will not start when it is
connected to a network segment that already has a working DHCP
server. If enabled, the DHCP force function ensures that the router
will always start it’s DHCP server, even if there is another DHCP
server already running in the router’s network
Overrides your LAN netmask thus making the DHCP server think that
it’s serving a larger or smaller network than it actually is
Additional options to be added to the DHCP server. For example with
'26,1470' or 'option:mtu, 1470' you can assign an MTU per DHCP
7.3.3 Static Leases
Static IP leases are used to reserve specific IP addresses for specific devices by binding them to their MAC address.
This is useful when you have a stationary device connected to your network that you need to reach frequently, e.g.,
printer, fax, etc.

7.3.4 IP Aliases
7.3.4.1 General Setup
IP Aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network. This is
useful if you need to reach the router that is located in the same network but in a different subnet. If you have a static
IP configuration on your computer and don’t want to change it every time you need to reach a router in a different
subnet, you can configure an IP alias in order to do so.
7.3.4.1 Advanced Settings
You may also optionally define a broadcast address and a custom DNS server.
You can find the directions on how to configure IP aliases in the WAN section of this document

7.5 Wireless
The Wireless configuration window provides you with the possibility to configure your wireless access points and
wireless stations. The Wireless Station Mode will become active only when Wi-Fi is configured as an active WAN
interface (either main or backup.)
Above is the overview of the Wireless Configuration window. It displays active access points and stations. Here you
can disable or enable your Wi-Fi interfaces, remove unwanted access points or stations or enter a configuration window
for each Wi-Fi, where you can configure it more thoroughly.
7.5.1 Wireless Access Point
The Wireless Access Point configuration window is used to make changes to different access points. It is divided
into two main sections – device and interface. One is dedicated to configuring hardware parameters, the other –
software. To access this window, simply click the ‘edit’ button next to the Wi-Fi interface that you wish to configure:

RUT955 can also work as a Wi-Fi client. Configuring 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 that 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.
After which you will be redirected to the window shown below.
Pressing Start scan will initiate a scan for available Wi-Fi Access Points in the area. After the scan finishes, you will

will attempt to obey the 'Content-Length' field in the header, and wait for the entire body of the message to be

Static ARP entries are used to bind a MAC address to a specific IP address. For example, if you want some device to
get the same IP every time it connects to the router, you can create a Static ARP entry by binding that device’s MAC
address to a desired IP address. The router will then create an entry in the ARP table, which in turn make sure that that

8 Remote monitoring and administration
RUT955 supports multiple monitoring and administration possibilities. One can get router’s information through
SMS or using RMS (Remote Management System). Furthermore, some system related parameters can be obtained using
MQTT or MODBUSD publisher services. Instruction on how to use them can be found in 9.19 and 9.20 chapters of this
document respectively. The main focus is on parameters, which change from time to time, like signal strength,
operator’s name (it is quite common to change operator’s name in countries where inner roaming is used) or module
temperature. Although it is also possible to read static values, like MAC address, router’s serial number and many others.
The access to the mentioned parameters is implemented in both MODBUSD and MQTT publisher applications. Apart
from getting parameters, MODBUSD can also be used to set some system related parameters, for example, it can be
used to change the value of the digital output.
Some applications, like MQTT publisher or RMS, allow monitoring or administrating several routers at once. It is a
very useful functionality when you want to change the same parameters on more than one router at once. RMS shares
some similarities with SSH (Secure Shell) and one of RMS features is to allow SSH access to a remote router. There is no
separate chapter about RMS in this manual, because the interface of RMS is very intuitive and user friendly. You can
access RMS by using your browser with a supplied username and a password at http://rms.teltonika.lt
By sending SMS messages to the router the user can execute various commands like reboot, switch Wi-Fi on or off
and many others. With each SMS the user needs to specify the router’s administrator password. This is done for
authentication purposes. The list of commands that may be executed through SMS is limited. Full list of commands can
be found at Services->SMS Utilities of the router’s WEB page. More information on how to manage the router using SMS
can be found in chapter 9.8 of this document.
Another interesting router monitoring solution is SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). By not going
into deep detail about this protocol, it is another manner to monitor router parameters. It allows the user to check the
current operator, modem model and other router parameters. Compared to other applications and services, only SNMP
has ability to inform the user about the occurrence of specific events (called traps) in the system. The main drawback of
this protocol is that it does not allow the user to change anything. You can read more about SNMP in chapter 9.9.
Apart from the services mentioned earlier, there is one service, which is used only for communication between
the router and an Android type device (phones, etc.). It is called JSON-RPC and it allows the user to set or get various
parameters of the system. JSON-RPC provides users with the possibility to execute the same commands as they would
through SSH. To sum up, this approach opens up wide possibilities in communication between the router and an
Android device. However, there is no separate topic about JSON-RPC in this manual, because this type of
communication is generally not for end-user use.
Each approach has its advantages and disadvantages. In some situations MQTT publisher works better than
MODBUSD, while in others MODBUSD will be the better choice. The most versatile manner of system monitoring and
administration is through SSH. SSH provides complete control of the router. The user can execute commands, write shell
scripts and do many other things. In such case, the user only needs an application to connect to the router through SSH.
The most popular application used in Windows type operating systems is called Putty. If one is trying to connect to the
router from a UNIX type operating system, all that is needed is the hostname, username (in this case – root) and
password.
Sometimes the use of SSH is not necessary, so other more conservative services/applications are used. The
complete list of applications and services that can be used for router administration and monitoring is given below. It
can be seen that all applications, except MQTT publisher and SNMP, support setting/getting of some system related
parameters.

To summarize, RUT955 provides several solutions for router management. Each user can choose what solution to
use. If the required functionality is not supported be a particular service, the user can combine several applications, for
example, use MQTT publisher along with SNMP. Finally, if a user has special needs, he can write shell scripts and
execute them via SSH or use JSON-RPC.

9.4 MQTT
9.4.1 MQTT Broker
MQTT also known as MQ Telemetry Transport is a publisher-subscriber based messaging protocol for use on top of
the TCP/IP protocol. It is designed to send short messages from one client (publisher) to another (subscriber) through
brokers, which are responsible for message delivery to the end point. RUT955 routers support this functionality via an
open source Mosquitto broker. The messages are sent this way: a client (subscriber) subscribes to a topic(s); a publisher
posts a message to that specific topic(s). The broker then checks who is subscribed to that particular topic(s) and
transmits data from the publisher to the subscriber.
The MQTT Broker can be enabled by checking Enable. The Broker will then “listen” for connections on the specified
Local port. In order to accept connections from WAN, you also need to check Enable Remote Access.

RUT955 User‘s Manual
In order for the system to work, the MQTT broker should be configured in advance. You can use the Broker that is
installed in the router or another, independent Broker. Shown below is a scheme where the client tries to subscribe for
information about the router’s uptime. To achieve this, multiple commands between the client and the publisher are
being sent.
Subscribe router/get
Subscribe
get/01234567/command
Publish router/get
id
Publisher
Publish router/id
01234567
Client
Publish get/01234567/command
uptime
Broker
Publish router/01234567/uptime 15248
In general the publisher works in this way: the publisher connects to the broker and subscribes to the topics
router/get and get//command.  denotes the serial number of the client’s router. The client then
sends a message id to the topic router/get. The following message is received by the publisher, since it is subscribed to
that topic. Then the publisher sends a response with its serial number to the topic router/id. Now the client knows that
a publisher with some serial number exist. It means that the client can send a message with the parameter name from
the list as a message to the topic get//command to the Broker. The message will be received only by the
subscriber, which has the same SERIAL number mentioned in the topic. Now the publisher can send a response back
with router//parameter_name topic and a message with the value of the requested parameter. It should be
noted that, according to the MQTT protocol, topic names are case-sensitive, for example topic router is not the same as
topic RoUtEr.

RUT955 has a DCE female connector. To connect a standard DTE device to it, use a straight-through Female/Male
RS232 cable:
To connect another DCE device to RUT955, a Null-modem (crossed) Female/Female cable should be used:
Maximum cable length is 15 meters or the cable length equal to a capacitance of 2500·pF (for a 19200 baud rate).
Using lower capacitance cables can increase the distance. Reducing communication speed can also increace maximum
cable length.

9.6.2.1 Maximum data rate vs. transmission line length
RS-485 standart can be used for network lengths up to 1200 meters, but the maximum usable data rate decreases
as the transmission length increases. A device operating at the maximum data transfer rate (10Mbps) is limited to a
transmission length of about 12 meters, while the 100kbps data rate can achieve a distance up to 1200 meters. A rough
relation between maximum transmission length and data rate can be calculated using this approximation:
10
( )=
( ⁄ )
Where Lmax is the maximum transmission length in meters and DR is maximum data rate in bits per second.
Twisted pair is the prefered cable type for RS-485 networks. Twisted pair cables pick up noise and other
electromagnetically induced voltages as common mode signals, which are rejected by the differential receivers.

9.6.2.5 Termination
When to use (place jumper)
Termination resistor, equal in resistance to cable characteristic impedance, must be connected at each end of the
cable to reduce reflection and ringing of the signals when the cable lengths get relatively long. Rise time of the RUT955
RS-485 driver is about 5 ns, so the maximum unterminated cable length is about 12 cm. As transmission line cables will
always be longer than 12 cm, termination is mandatory all the time if RUT955 is located at the end of the cable.
When not to use (remove jumper)
If your RS-485 consists of more than two devices and the RUT955 router is located not on the end of the line but,
for example, in the middle, RUT955 termination resistor needs to be disabled. In this case, place termination at other
devices which are situated at the ends of the line.
How to enable termination
120 Ω termination resistor is included on the RUT955 PCB and can be enabled by shorting contacts (shown in the
picture below), placing 2.54mm pitch jumper:
9.6.2.6 Number of devices in an RS-485 Network
One RUT955 RS-485 driver is capable of driving a maximum of 32 receivers, provided that the receiver input
impedance is 12 kΩ. If receiver impedances are higher, the maximum number of receivers in the network increases. Any
combination of receiver types can be connected together, provided their parallel impedance does not exceed RLoad > 375
Ω.

Mode: Bidirect
Bidirect mode allows bi-directional communication through the serial interface. In its default state the application
acts like a client, but at the same time it listens to any incoming connections on the dedicated port. When there is an
incoming connection, the application drops the current connection to the remote server and acts like a server in the
new connection. This triggers a configured output change, which can be used to inform any auxiliary devices about
connection status changes. When the client connection is terminated, the application returns to its default mode and
continues to act as a client to the remote server.

With Modem Serial type, the router imitates a dial-up modem. Connections to TCP/IP networks can be established
using AT commands. The connection can be initiated by the device connected via serial interface with an ATD command:
ATD :. If Direct connect settings are specified, the connection to the server is always active. Data mode can
be entered by issuing the ATD command. Incoming connections are indicated by sending a RING to the serial interface.

9.7.1 OpenVPN
VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a method for secure data transfer through unsafe public network
networks. This section
explains how to configure OpenVPN, which is an implementation of VPN supported by the RUT router
routers.
The default OpenVPN Configuration
onfiguration list is empty, so you have to define your own configuration to establish any
sort of OpenVPN connection. OpenVPN configurations can have one of two roles:: client and server. Let’s start with an
OpenVPN client. To create it, enter the desired instance name in the “New configuration name” field, select the
instance’s role from the “Role” drop down list and press the “Add New” button.
Once you’ve added a new OpenVPN instance there is no need to press the “Save” button, since the “Add New”
button both creates and saves the new instance.
instance. By default the instance will be disabled and unconfigured. I order to
establish an OpenVPN connection you must Enable your instance, enter an OpenVPN server address, choose an
authentication method and a few other things, all of which can be configured in
in the Settings window, which can
reached by pressing the “Edit” button next to your OpenVPN instance (as shown in the figure above).

9.7.2 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 a 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:
bases: Security Policy Database (SPD) which defines whether to apply IPsec to a
packet or not and specify which/how IPsec-SA
IPsec SA is applied and Security Association Database (SAD), which contain
contains a Key
of each IPsec-SA.
Associ
(IPsec-SA)
The establishment of the Security Association
SA) between two peers is needed for IPsec communication. It
can be done by using manual or automated configuration.
Note: the router starts establishing a tunnel when data is sent from the router to a remote site over the tunnel. The
Keep Alive feature is used for automatic
utomatic tunnel establishment.
To create a new IPsec instance, go to the IPsec tab, type in a name for your new instance in the text field below the
IPsec tab and press the “Add” button next to it.
The newly created instance will be disabled and unconfigured. To configure it press the “Edit” button located next
to it (as seen in the example above).. This action will redirect you to the instance’s IPsec Configuration window.

9.7.3 GRE Tunnel
GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation RFC2784) is a solution for tunneling RFC1812 private address
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
ce and destination IP addresses
2. Tunnel’s local IP address
3. Distant network’s IP address and Subnet mask
To create a new GRE instance, go to the GRE Tunnel tab, type in a name for your new instance in the text field
below the GRE Tunnel tab and press the “Add New” button next to it.
The newly created instance will be disabled and unconfigured. To configure it press the “Edit” button located next
to it (as seen in the example above). This action will redirect you to the instance’s GRE Tunnel Configuration window.

9.7.4 PPTP
Point-to-Point
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
wide-area
area network as a single large local area network. A company no longer needs to lease its own lines for wide
communication but can securely use the public networks.
9.7.4.1 PPTP client
To create a new PPTP instance, go to the PPTP tab, select the Role (server or client) of your instance, type in a
name in the “New configuration name” field and press the “Add” button next to it.
The newly created instance will be disabled and unconfigured. To configure it press the “Edit” button located next

Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a domain name service allowing to link dynamic IP addresses to a static hostname. To start
using this feature you must first register to a DDNS service provider (example list is given in description).
By default, an unconfigured DDNS will be present. Below is a picture of this instance. You can create more DDNS
instances if you wish to do so.

example, your RUT has a Private IP (i.e. 10.140.56.57) on its WAN
(LTE interface), then you can send this exact IP to DDNS server by
selecting "Private", or by selecting "Custom" and "WAN" interface

9.9 SMS Utilities
RUT955 has an extensive amount of various SMS Utilities. The SMS Utilities section is subdivided into 6 subsections:
SMS Utilities, Call Utilities, User Groups, SMS Management, Remote Configuration and Statistics.
9.9.1 SMS Utilities
The SMS Utilities tab contains a list of rules that perform certain actions when they are activated by SMS messages.
The figure above is an illustration of the SMS Utilities rules list. The entire list contains 26 rules but you are also be
provided with the possibility to configure custom ones.
All default configuration options are listed below:
- Reboot
- Get status
- Get I/O status
- Get OpenVPN status
- Switch WiFi on / off
- Switch mobile data on / off
- Switch OpenVPN on / off
- Change mobile data settings
- Get list of profiles
- Change profile
- SSH access control
How to execute a rule:
Web access control
Restore to default
Force SIM switch
GPS coordinates
GPS on / off
FW upgrade from server
Config update from server
Switch monitoring on / off
Monitoring status
UCI API
To execute a rule, just send an SMS message to the router‘s SIM card number with the rules‘ SMS Text, e.g., if you
send a message with the text “reboot”, the router will reboot provided the selected Authorization method is “No
authorization”. However, if there is an Authorization method present you will need to include the “Authorization key”
in the text message. This “Authorization key” depends on the chosen Authorization method, i.e.., if the method is “By
serial”, the “Authorization key” is the router’s serial number, if the method is “By router admin password”, the
“Authorization key” is the router’s admin password. The authorization “key” must precede the activation text and they
must be separated by a space. For example, if the chosen Authorization method is “By router admin password” and the
password is “admin01”, the entire message should look like this: “admin01 reboot”. The same applies to “By serial”
authorization.

RUT955 can be configured via SMS from another RUTxxx router. You only have to select which configuration details
have to be sent and type in the phone number of the other router. The router will then generate the SMS Text needed
for the configurations to be applied.
Total count of SMS is managed automatically. You should be aware of the possible number of SMS and use this
feature at your own responsibility. It should not, generally, be used if you have a high cost per SMS. This is especially
relevant if you will try to send a whole OpenVPN configuration, which might accumulate to about 40 SMS messages.

9.17 Modbus TCP interface
Modbus TCP interface allows the user to set or get some parameters like module temperature, signal strength,
etc. from the router. In other words, Modbus TCP allows to control routers behavior and get its status information. To
use Modbus TCP capabilities this feature must be enabled by navigating to Services-Modbus. After “Save” button is
pressed, the Modbus daemon will be launched on selected port of the system. Modbus daemon acts as slave device
that means, it accepts connection from the master (client) and sends out a response or sets some system related
parameter. By the default Modbus will only accept connections through LAN interface. In order to accept connections
through WAN interface also, Allow Remote Access must be checked.
To obtain some parameter from the system, the read holding registers command is used. The register number
and corresponding system values are described below. Each register contains 2 bytes. For simplification the number of
registers for storing numbers is 2, while for storing text information the number of registers is 16.

The Modbus daemon also supports setting of some system parameters. For this task write holding register
command is used. System related parameters and how to use them are described below. The register number refers to
the register number where to start write required values. All commands, except “Change APN” accepts only one input
parameter. For the APN the number of input registers may vary. The very first byte of APN command denotes a number

QoS (Quality of Service) is the idea that transmission rates, error rates, and other characteristics can be measured,
improved, and, to some extent, guaranteed in advance. QoS is of particular concern for the continuous transmission of
high-bandwidth video and multimedia information.
QoS can be improved with traffic shaping techniques such as packet, network traffic, and port prioritization.

11 Device Recovery
The following section describes available options for recovery of malfunctioning device. Usually device can
become unreachable due to power failure during firmware upgrade or if its core files were wrongly modified in the file
system. Teltonika’s routers offer several options for recovering from these situations.
11.1 Reset button
Reset button is located on the back panel of the device. Reset button has several functions:
Reboot the device. After the device has started and if the reset button is pressed for up to 4 seconds the device
will reboot. Start of the reboot will be indicated by flashing of all 5 signal strength LEDs together with green connection
status LED.
Reset to defaults. After the device has started if the reset button is pressed for at least 5 seconds the device will
reset all user changes to factory defaults and reboot. To help user to determine how long the reset button should be
pressed, signal strength LEDs indicates the elapsed time. All 5 lit LEDs means that 5 seconds have passed and reset
button can be released. Start of the reset to defaults will be indicated by flashing of all 5 signal strength LEDs together
with red connection status LED. SIM PIN on the main SIM card is the only user parameter that is kept after reset to
defaults.
11.2 Bootloader’s WebUI
Bootloader also provides a way to recover the router functionality when the firmware is damaged. To make it
easier to use bootloader has its own webserver that can be accessed with any web browser.
Procedure for starting bootloader’s webserver:
Automatically. It happens when bootloader does not detect master firmware. Flashing all 4 Ethernet LEDs
indicate that bootloader’s webserver has started.
Manually. Bootloader’s webserver can be requested by holding reset button for 3 seconds while powering the
device on. Flashing all 4 Ethernet LEDs indicates that bootloader’s webserver has started.
Bootloader’s WebUI can be accessed by typing this address in the web browser:
http://192.168.1.1/index.html
Note: it may be necessary to clear web browser’s cache and to use incognito/anonymous window to access
bootloader’s WebUI.

13 Glossary:
WAN – Wide Area Network is a telecommunication network that covers a broad area (i.e., any network that links
across metropolitan, regional, or national boundaries). Here we use the term WAN to mean the external network that
the router uses to reach the internet.
LAN – A local area network (LAN) is a computer network that interconnects computers in a limited area such as a
home, school, computer laboratory, or office building.
DHCP – The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network configuration protocol for hosts on Internet
Protocol (IP) networks. Computers that are connected to IP networks must be configured before they can communicate
with other hosts. The most essential information needed is an IP address, and a default route and routing prefix. DHCP
eliminates the manual task by a network administrator. It also provides a central database of devices that are connected
to the network and eliminates duplicate resource assignments.
ETHERNET CABLE – Refers to the CAT5 UTP cable with an RJ-45 connector.
AP – Access point. An access point is any device that provides wireless connectivity for wireless clients. In this case,
when you enable Wi-Fi on your router, your router becomes an access point.
DNS – Domain Name Resolver.A server that translates names such as www.google.lt to their respective IPs. In
order for your computer or router to communicate with some external server it needs to know it’s IP, its name
“www.something.com” just won’t do. There are special servers set in place that perform this specific task of resolving
names into IPs, called Domain Name servers. If you have no DNS specified you can still browse the web, provided that
you know the IP of the website you are trying to reach.
ARP – Short for Adress Resolution Protocol,a network layerprotocol used to convert an IP address into a physical
address (called a DLC address), such as an Ethernet address.
PPPoE – Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification for connecting the users on an Ethernet to
the internet through a common broadband medium, such as DSL line, wireless device or cable modem.
DSL – digital subscriber line - it is a family of technologies that provide internet access by transmitting digital data
using a local telephone network which uses the public switched telephone network.
NAT – network address translation – an internet standard that enables a local-area network (LAN) to use one set
of IP addresses for internet traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic.
LCP – Link Control Protocol – a protocol that is part of the PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol). The LCP checks the
identity of the linked device and either accepts or rejects the peer device, determines the acceptable packet size for
transmission, searches for errors in configuration and can terminate the link if the parameters are not satisfied.
BOOTP – Bootstrap Protocol – an internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP
address, the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the machine.
Teltonika Solutions
208
RUT955 User‘s Manual
This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or floppy disk drive.
TCP – Transmission Control Protocol – one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks. Whereas the IP protocol
deals only with packets, TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees
delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent.
TKIP – Temporal Key Integrity Protocol – scrambles the keys using hashing algorithmand, by adding an integritychecking feature, ensure that the keys haven’t been tampered with.
CCMP – Counter Mode Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol – encryption protocol
designed for Wireless LAN products that implement the standards of the IEEE 802.11i amendment to the original
IEEE802.11 standard. CCMP is an enchanged data cryptographic encapsulation designed for data confidentiality and
based upon the Counter Mode with CBC-MAC (CCM) of the AES (Advanced Encyprion Standard) standard.
MAC – Media Access Control – hardware address that uniquely identifies each node of a network. In IEEE 802
networks, the Data Link Control (DCL) layer of the PSO Reference Model is divided into two sub-layers: the Logical Link
Control (LLC) layer and the Media Access Control layer. The MAC layer interfaces directly with the network medium.
Consequently, each different type of network medium requires a different MAC layer.
DMZ – Demilitarized Zone – a computer or small subnetwork that sits between a trusted internal network, such as
a corporate private LAN, and an untrusted external network, such as the public internet.
UDP – User Datagram Protocol – a connectionless protocol that, like TCP, runs on top of IP networks. Provides
very few error recovery services, offering instead a direct way to send and receive datagrams over IP network.
VPN – Virtual Private Network – a network that is constructed by using public wires — usually the Internet — to
connect to a private network, such as a company's internal network.
VRRP – Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol - an election protocol that dynamically assigns responsibility for one
or more virtual router(s) to the VRRP router(s) on a LAN, allowing several routers on a multiaccess link to utilize the
same virtual IP address.
GRE Tunnel – Generic Routing Encapsulation - a tunneling protocol developed by Cisco Systems that can
encapsulate a wide variety of network layerprotocols inside virtual point-to-point links over an Internet Protocol
internetwork.
PPPD – Point to Point Protocol Daemon – it is used to manage network connections between two nodes on Unixlikeoperating systems. It is configured using command-line arguments and configuration files.
SSH – Secure SHell - a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote
machine, and to move files from one machine to another. It provides strong authentication and secure communications
over insecure channels.
VRRPD – Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol – it is designed to eliminate the single point of failure associated
with statically routed networks by automatically providing failover using multiple LAN paths through alternate routers.
SNMP – Simple Network Management Protocol - a set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP works
by sending messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network.
