How to Configure a Techroute 1725 Router

A Techroute 1725 router is a device that offers a flexible solution for evolving business needs. It supports many WAN access technologies, such as ADSL, E1/T1, Ethernet, and Serial. It also provides advanced features, such as VPN, firewall, QoS, NAT, and DHCP. In this article, we will show you how to configure a Techroute 1725 router using the web interface and the command line interface (CLI).

Web Interface Configuration

The web interface is a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows you to configure the router using a web browser. To access the web interface, you need to connect your computer to the router using an Ethernet cable and assign your computer an IP address in the same subnet as the router's LAN interface. The default IP address of the router's LAN interface is 192.168.1.1 and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Once you have connected your computer to the router, open your web browser and enter http://192.168.1.1 in the address bar. You will be prompted to enter a username and password. The default username is admin and the default password is admin.

After logging in, you will see the web interface homepage, which displays the basic information and status of the router. You can navigate through different menus and submenus to configure various parameters of the router.

Some of the main menus are:

System: This menu allows you to configure the system settings, such as hostname, time zone, password, backup and restore, reboot and reset.

Interface: This menu allows you to configure the interface settings, such as IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS server, VLAN, PPPoE, etc.

Routing: This menu allows you to configure the routing settings, such as static route, dynamic route (RIP), policy route, etc.

Firewall: This menu allows you to configure the firewall settings, such as access control list (ACL), NAT, port forwarding, DMZ, etc.

VPN: This menu allows you to configure the VPN settings, such as IPSec VPN, PPTP VPN, L2TP VPN, etc.

QoS: This menu allows you to configure the QoS settings, such as bandwidth control, priority queue, traffic shaping, etc.

DHCP: This menu allows you to configure the DHCP settings, such as DHCP server, DHCP relay, DHCP client, etc.

Tools: This menu allows you to use some tools for troubleshooting and maintenance, such as ping, traceroute,

telnet,

etc.

Help: This menu provides some help information and documents for using the web interface.

CLI Configuration

The CLI is a text-based interface that allows you to configure the router using commands. To access the CLI,

you need to connect your computer to the router using a console cable and a terminal emulation software,

such as PuTTY or HyperTerminal. The default baud rate of the console port is 9600 bps,

and the default username and password are admin and admin.

Once you have connected your computer to the router,

open your terminal emulation software and enter admin and admin when prompted.

You will see the CLI prompt,

which looks like this:

[admin@Techroute1725]#

You can enter different commands at this prompt to configure various parameters of

the router.

You can also enter or help to see a list of available commands or get more information about a specific command.
