2 Setting up your router
2.1 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.
12
2.2 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)
We first must set up our network card so that it could properly communicate with the router.
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).
13
5. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and then click 6. By default the router is going to have DHCP enabled, which
Properties 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.
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 IPs. 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).
14
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.
15
3 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. If you connect to the internet via an Ethernet cable of Wi-Fi,
you may also backup your connection with mobile for added stability. On every case except when you connect to the
internet via Wi-Fi, you can distribute your internet via an Ethernet cable (3 ports) and/or a wireless network. When you
connect via Wi-Fi, you cannot have Wi-Fi in your LAN.
In later sections it will be explained, bit by bit, how to configure your router to work in a desired mode.
4 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.
16
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.
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. One of the options is to use “Teltonika” PR1000 overvoltage
protection device conforming ISO 7637-2.

6.5 WAN
6.5.1 Operation Mode
Type Explanation
1. Wired An Ethernet cable connected to the WAN port of the router.
2. Wi-Fi The router will be able to connect to a local wireless access point and reach the internet through it.
3. Mobile The router will connect to your local mobile network for Mobile access.
6.5.2 Common configuration
Common configuration allows you to configure your TCP/IP settings for the wan network.
You can switch between the Static, DHCP or PPPoE protocol by selecting the protocol that you want to use and
then pressing Switch Protocol
Note: Mobile connection does not use either DHCP or Static protocol therefore it displays “none” in the
dropdown menu.
36
6.5.2.1 General Setup
6.5.2.1.1 Static:
This is the configuration setup for when you select the static protocol.
6.5.2.1.2 DHCP:
37
When you select the DHCP protocol you can use it as is, because most networks will not require any additional
advanced configuration.
6.5.2.1.3 PPPoE
This protocol is mainly used by DSL providers:
This is the configuration setup for when you select PPPoE protocol.
6.5.2.2 Advanced
These are the advanced settings for each of the protocols, if you are unsure of how to alter these attributes it is
highly recommended to leave them to a trained professional:
6.5.2.2.1 Static
38
Field name Sample value Explanation
1. Disable NAT On/Off Toggle NAT on and off.
2 Override MAC address 86:48:71:B7:E9:E4 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.
3. Override MTU 1500 Maximum transmission unit – specifies the largest possible size of
a data packet.
4. Use gateway metric 0 The WAN configuration by default generates a routing table entry.
With this field you can alter the metric of that entry.
6.5.2.2.2 DHCP
6.5.2.2.4 IP Aliases
IP aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network.
40
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.
6.6 LAN
This page is used to configure the LAN network, where all your devices and computers that you connect to the
router will reside.
6.6.1 Configuration
41
6.6.1.2 Advanced settings
6.7 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.
43
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.
ESSID – 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 ESSID – Will render your SSID hidden from other devices that try to scan the area.
6.7.1.1 Device
6.7.1.1.1 Advanced Settings
44
6.7.1.2 Interface
6.7.1.2.1 Security
Encryption – There are many modes of encryption, a distinctive class is pointed out below.
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
passphrase, which must be at least 8 characters long.
6.7.1.2.2 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.
45
6.7.1.3 Client
RUT9xx can work as a Wi-Fi client (check 6.5 Chapter of this manual). 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.
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.
Now, go to Backup WAN page and configure the 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 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:
If you do not witness the above sequence, your backup link is working!
47
6.9 Firewall
In this section we will look over the various firewall features that come with RUT950.
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.
48
6.9.2 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).
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/.

13. Enable NAT loopback Enable/Disable NAT loopback enables your local network (i.e. behind your
router/modem) to connect to a forward-facing IP address (such
as 208.112.93.73) of a machine that it also on your local
network
14. Extra arguments Passes additional arguments to iptables. Use with care!
6.9.4 Traffic Rules
The traffic rule page contains a more generalised rule definition. With it you can block or open ports, alter how
traffic is forwarded between LAN and WAN and many more things.
51

7.5 VPN
7.5.1 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 RUT950 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).
64
You can set custom settings here according to your VPN needs. Below is summary of parameters available to set:
65
7. Remote host IP IP address of OpenVPN server (applicable only for client configuration).
address
8. Resolve Retry Sets time in seconds to try resolving server hostname periodically in case of first resolve failure
before generating service exception.
9. 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”
10. Local tunnel IP address of virtual local network interface (applicable only for Point to Point).
endpoint
11. Remote tunnel IP address of virtual remote network interface. (Point to Point)
endpoint
12. Remote network IP address of remote network, an actual LAN network behind another VPN endpoint.
IP address
13. Remote network Subnet mask of remote network, an actual LAN network behind another VPN endpoint.
IP netmask
14. Virtual Network IP address of a virtual network (not a particular host) that will be created by TLS server.
IP address Configurable ONLY on TLS Server role.
15. Username Username for VPN authentication. Only in “Password” authentication mode.
16. Password Password for VPN authentication. Only in “Password” authentication mode.
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.
7.5.2 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.
66
Field name Explanation
1. Enable IPSec Check box to enable IPSec.
2. IPSec key exchange mode Automatic Key exchange.
3. Enable NAT traversal Enable this function if client-to-client applications will be used.
4. Enable initial contact Enable this to send an INITIAL-CONTACT message.
5. Peers identifier type Choose “fqdn” or “user fqdn” accordingly to your IPSec server configuration.
6. Mode Select “Main”, “Aggressive” or "Base" mode accordingly to your IPSec server
configuration.
7. My identifier Set the device identifier for IPSec tunnel.
In case RUT has Private IP, its identifier should be its own LAN network
address. In this way, the RoadWarrior approach is possible.
8. Preshare key Specify the authentication secret *string+. Secret’s length depends on selected
algorithm, eg. 128 bit long secret is 16 characters in length, 128 bits / 8 bits
(one character) = 16.
10. DPD delay If the RUT does not receive DPD-ACK message from its IPSec peer, RUT shuts
the connection down.
67
Phase 1 and Phase 2 must be configured accordingly to the IPSec server configuration, thus algorithms,
authentication and lifetimes of each phase must be identical.
Remote Network Secure Group – Set the remote network (Secure Policy Database) information. It must be LAN
network of remote IPSec host.
68
7.5.3 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:
69
Field name Explanation
1. Enable GRE Tunnel Check the box to enable the GRE Tunnel function.
2. TTL Specify the fixed time-to-live (TTL) value on tunneled packets [0-255]. The 0 is a
special value meaning that packets inherit the TTL value.
3. PMTUD Check the box to enable the Path Maximum Transmission Unit Discovery (PMTUD)
status on this tunnel.
4. Remote tunnel network Specify remote LAN Subnet address.
address
5. Remote CIDR Specify remote LAN Subnet CIDR value.
6. Local tunnel IP IP address of the local virtual tunnel interface. This IP must be in the same
network on both GRE ends, i.e. 10.0.0.1 on one end and 10.0.0.2 on another end.
7. Local tunnel CIRD Virtual tunnel CIDR
8. Remote IP address Specify remote WAN IP address.
9. MTU Specify the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of a communications protocol of a
layer in bytes.
7.5.4 L2TP
Allows setting up a L2TP server or client and should it be needed - using it with IPsec (L2TP/IPSec). Below is L2TP
server configuration example.
Client configuration is even simplier, which requires only Servers IP, Username and Password.
70
7.5.5 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.
71
Field name Value Explanation
1. Enable - Enables current DDNS configuration.
2. Status - Timestamp of the last IP check or update.
3. Service 1. dydns.org Your dynamic DNS service provider selected from the list.
2. 3322.org In case your DDNS provider is not present from the ones provided,
3. no-ip.com please feel free to use "custom" and add hostname of the update URL.
4. easydns.com
5. zoneedit.com
4. Hostname RUT9xx.noip.org Domain name which will be linked with dynamic IP address.
5. Username myusername Name of the user account.
6. Password mypassword Password of the user account.
7. IP Source Public This option allows you to select specific RUT interface, and then send
Private the IP address of that interface to DDNS server. So if, for example, your
Custom RUT has Private IP (i.e. 10.140.56.57) on its WAN (3G/LTE 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.
8. IP renew interval 10 (minutes) Time interval (in minutes) to check if the IP address of the device have
changed.
9. Force IP renew 472 (minutes) Time interval (in minutes) to force IP address renew.
72
7.6 SMS Utilities

8.3.6 MAC Clone
Safe mode firmware has most function of master firmware but to reduce its size some function were removed.
Removed functions are: Wireless Hotspot, VRRPD, SNMP, Web Filter
Safe mode firmware can be recognized from different logo and reduced menu in the WebUI. The sole purpose of
safe mode firmware is to allow the user to update master firmware so all configuration options are removed. To make
safe mode useful it is strongly recommended to back up configuration of master firmware when the user is satisfied
with the setup. After configuration backup is created it can be tested by requesting safe mode.
89
8.6 Firmware
Keep settings – when check box is selected router will keep saved user configuration settings after firmware
upgrade. When check box is not selected all router settings will be restored to factory defaults after firmware upgrade.
When upgrading firmware, you can choose settings that you wish to keep after the upgrade. This function is useful
when firmware is being upgraded via Internet (remotely) and you must not lose connection to the router afterwards. In
such case: cellular settings should be kept.
Warning: Do not ever remove router power supply and do not press reset button during upgrade process! This
will totally damage your router and it won’t be accessible. If you have any problems related to firmware upgrade you
should always consult with local dealer.

10 Device Recovery
The following section describes available option for recovery of malfunctioning device. Usually device can become
unreachable due to power failure during firmware upgrade or if core files were wrongly modified in the file system.
Teltonika’s router does offer several ways to recover from these situations
Reboot the device. After the device has started 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 the user to determine how
long should reset button be pressed signal strength LEDs count elapsed time. All 5 lit LEDs mean that 5
seconds have elapsed 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 (SIM1) is the only parameter that is kept after reset to defaults.
10.2 Safemode
Router contains two firmware images in its internal flash memory. One is master firmware which is the default
firmware on is constantly used by the user. Another is safemode firmware which plays the role of the backup to the
master firmware.
Safemode firmware has most function of master firmware but to reduce its size some function were removed.
Removed functions are:
Wireless Hotspot
VRRPD
SNMP
Web Filter
Safemode firmware can be recognized from different logo and reduced menu in the WebUI. The sole purpose of
safemode firmware is to allow the user to update master firmware so all configuration options are removed. To make
safemode useful it is strongly recommended to back up configuration of master firmware when the user is satisfied with
the setup (described in Safemode section). After configuration backup is created it can be tested by requesting
safemode.
Automatically. It happens when bootloader does not detect neither master nor safemode
firmware. Flashing all 4 Ethernet LEDs indicate that bootloader’s webserver has started.
92
Manually. Bootloader’s webserver can be requested by holding reset button for 3 seconds while
powering the device on. Flashing all 4 Ethernet LEDs indicate 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
11 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 layer protocol 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.
93
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.
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 integrity-
checking 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 layer protocols 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 Unix-
like operating 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.
