Outdoor Router Command Line Interface

The outdoor router provides both the Web interface and the command-line interface. You can access the Web interface with a web browser.

The command-line interface (CLI) means interacting with the router system where the user issues command to the router system in the form of command lines. Secure Shell (SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol to access the router’s command-line interface.

Username: The default terminal username is “root”.
Password: Same as the router password. For security reasons, the password is not echoed to the screen; it does show up when you type it. Just type the router and press “Enter/Return” on the keyboard.

Local – Web Terminal

Available since firmware version EV3104.

  • Log in to the router admin, and go to “System / Terminal.”
  • Input default router user name “root” and router password.
  • You will then receive the welcome message on the web terminal interface.

* Some web browsers might block the SSH connection, suggesting using Chrome with standard settings.

* The web terminal is unavailable on the Traversal Cloud.

Local – Linux & Mac

For Linux and Mac computers, the most common tool is Terminal.

  • Open a new Terminal window, type “ssh [email protected]” and press “Enter”.
  • If this is your first time logging in, you might be asked to clarify whether you really want to login. In that case, just type yes and press “Enter”.
  • Then type in the router’s admin password and press “Enter” to finish the login process.

Local – Windows

For the Windows computer, the most common SSH tool is PuTTY. You can download it from here with free.

  • Launch PuTTY and select the SSH option under the “Connection type” field.
  • Type in the router’s LAN IP address (“192.168.30.1” by default) into the “Host Name” field.
  • Type in the SSH port into the “Port” field (“22” by default).
  • Click “Open”.
  • In the next window type in the login name (“root” by default), press “Enter”.
  • Type in the router’s admin password (“root” by default) and press “Enter” again.
  • You should be greeted with a message like the right side image shows.
