Section 5 Basic Configuration via CLI

This section describes a Command Line Interface configuration. This section is written to address only the basic steps. It is highly recommended that you visit and read Mikrotik’s website www.mikrotik.com to gain an understanding of all configuration parameters.

In this section you will learn the following:

•Configure an IP address and Gateway

•Configure DHCP client

•Configure DHCP server

Note: See Appendix A for more information on serial port.

The easiest and safest way to configure the router from the CLI is to use the “setup”. This will allow you to configure the router with simple menu driven options. If an invalid command entered then the setup program will terminate and no setting will take effect.

Launching CLI “Setup”

[admin@HDMESH] > setup

Setup uses Safe Mode. It means that all changes that are made during setup are reverted in case of error, or if Ctrl-C is used to abort setup. To keep changes exit setup using the 'x' key.

[Safe Mode taken]

Choose options by pressing one of the letters in the left column, before dash. Pressing 'x' will exit current menu, pressing Enter key will select the entry that is marked by an '*'. You can abort setup at any time by pressing Ctrl-C.

Entries marked by '+' are already configured. Entries marked by '-' cannot be used yet.

Entries marked by 'X' cannot be used without installing additional packages. r - reset all router configuration

+ l - load interface driver

*a - configure ip address and gateway + d - setup dhcp client

+ s - setup dhcp server p - setup pppoe client t - setup pptp client

x - exit menu

your choice [press Enter to configure ip address and gateway]:
