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.

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.

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.

Explanation

1.

Router Name

RUT950

Name of the router (hostname of the routers system). Can be changed

in System -> Administration.

2.

Host name

Teltonika-RUT950.com

Indicates how router will be seen by other devices on the network. Can

be changed in System -> Administration.

Firmware

Version

RUT9XX_R_00.02.345

Shows the version of the firmware that is currently loaded in the router.

Newer versions might become available as new features are added. Use

this field to decide whether you need a firmware upgrade or not.

5.

Kernel Version

3.10.36

The version of the Linux kernel that is currently running on the router.

6.

Local Time

2016-05-06, 05:54:10

Shows the current system time. Might differ from your computer,

because the router synchronizes it's time with an NTP server. Format

[year-month-day, hours: minutes: seconds].

7.

Uptime

0d 0h 47m 35s (since

2016-05-06, 05:06:35)

Indicates how long it has been since the router booted up. Reboots will

reset this timer to 0.

Format [day’s hours minutes seconds (since year

-

month-day, hours: minutes: seconds)].

8.

Load Average

1 min: 100%; 5 mins:

87%; 15 mins: 52%

Indicates how busy the router is. Let's examine some sample output: "1

min: 22%, 5 mins: 13%, 15 mins: 20%". The first number mean past

minute and

second number

22% means that in the past minute there

have been, on average, 22% processes running or waiting for a

resource.

Explanation

1.

Free

79972 kB / 126556 kB

(63%)

The amount of memory that is completely free. Should this rapidly

decrease or get close to 0, it would indicate that the router is running

out of memory, which could cause crashes and unexpected reboots.

2.

Cached

15848 kB / 126556 kB

(12%)

The size of the area of memory that is dedicated to storing frequently

accessed data.

3.

Buffered

5920 kB / 126556 kB

(4%)

The size of the area in which data is temporarily stored before moving

it to another location.
