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.
