As the above wizard finishes, following window will pop up verifying your successful configuration of
DHCP server.

3.7 CONFIGURING PPP-CLIENT


Now you are required to create a PPP-client profile in order to connect to an ISP. Following procedure can be used to create a PPP-client profile for a particular ISP:
Run the command at+cgdcond? to see which APN profiles are already configured in the modem. Following is an example where three APNs are already configured.

In the following configuration example of PPPclient, an APN telstra.internet and Phone *99***3#
will be entered according to the above entry in the
modem.

M2M Connectivity Quick Start Guide

Page 12 of 25

RouterBoard411U / 411UHR
In the following configuration example a PPP-client is configured for APN telstra.internet with dialed
number as *99***3#

RouterBoard411U / 411UHR
Now if you want to configure another APN in the modem, you will be required to issue command
at+cgdcont=<context ID>IP,<APN>. Following is an example where APN internet.au is configured
in modem.

3.8 CONFIGURING NAT

Follow the path IP->Firewall->NAT.

Now you should be able to browse internet through PPP connection to MC8790/V or MC8795v
modem.

You can check modem status, signal strength and network in use by clicking the info button on PPPclient configuration page.

3.10 CONFIGURING DYNAMIC DNS


Dynamic DNS can be configured by writing a script or you can refer to Appendix 4.1 for this script.
You can configure Dynamic DNS on RouterBoard by uploading this script (from Appendix 4.1) and
then follow the steps described below:



Follow the path system->scripts.


Click on (+) to add a script.

M2M Connectivity Quick Start Guide

Page 17 of 25

RouterBoard411U / 411UHR

Write/upload the script and then click OK.

Note: If you download the Dynamic DNS script from


our website, then the name of the script should be
dynDNS.

M2M Connectivity Quick Start Guide

Page 18 of 25

RouterBoard411U / 411UHR

Add a scheduler to run the script after specific intervals. It can be done by running the following command
/system scheduler add name=dynDNS policy=read,test interval=1m on-event=dynDNS

In the above configuration command, a scheduler is set to run the script dynDNS after every 2 minutes.

3.11 PORT FORWARDING


Port forwarding can be done as described in the following snapshots:


Follow the path IP->Firewall.

M2M Connectivity Quick Start Guide

Note: In this example, a TCP port 134 is forwarded


from external IP a.b.c.d to TCP port 134 of an internal IP 192.168.88.254.

PPTP Client configurations




Follow the path Interface -> (+) ->PPTP-Client on the winbox to create a client and here necessary credentials will be entered to connect to the server .

Static Routes on both Client & Server


Add static routes to the network attached to the routers as described in the following snapshots.


Follow the path IP->Routes-> (+) on the client to create a static route to the network
192.168.90.0/24 with 10.0.0.1 (local/server end address of the PPTP tunnel) as a default gateway.

M2M Connectivity Quick Start Guide

Page 22 of 25

Follow the path IP->Routes-> (+) on the Server to create a static route to the network
192.168.88.0/24 with 10.0.0.2 ( Remote/Client end address of the PPTP tunnel) as a default
gateway.

Now you should be able to PING the Client network from server side and vise-versa.
