Preparations
To install the Bondix S.A.NE Client on your Teltonika RUTX12 router, you will need a few minutes of stable Internet, a web browser, and possibly some coffee or tea.
Supported browsers
The following browsers have been tested to function properly with Bondix S.A.NE:
- Google Chrome
- MS Edge
- Mozilla Firefox
Installation
Teltonika RUTX12 Firmware
Before you begin installing, make sure that your Teltonika RUTX12 router runs on the firmware version RUTX_R_00.07.02. If not, visit RUTX12_Firmware_Downloads and download the file RUTX_R_00.07.02_WEBUI.bin.
S.A.NE Client
Visit releases.bondix.dev and download the file saneclient-armv7-202205242339-345e1f24.ipk. Open your Teltonika router menu, navigate to the menu item “Services” › “Package Manager” › “Upload”. Click on “Browse”, choose the file you just downloaded to upload it to the router, and then press “Install Package”.
If the Bondix S.A.NE Client was installed correctly, you’ll find a new menu item “Bondix S.A.NE” in the section “Networks” of your Teltonika router.
General Router Settings
Load Balancing
Check that Teltonika Load Balancing functionality is deactivated on the router, as this would have a massive impact on Bondix S.A.NE performance.
DNS
Ensure that you have configured DNS forwarding to 8.8.8.8 and 9.9.9.9 to receive DNS through the tunnel.
Bondix S.A.NE Settings
General Settings
Set the following general settings for the Bondix S.A.NE Client:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Tunnel | Your tunnel’s name.
This is part of the credentials you’ve received via email on purchasing a Bondix S.A.NE Client license. |
| Password | Your password.
This is part of the credentials you’ve received via email on purchasing a Bondix S.A.NE Client license. |
| Backup Server | A backup server acts as a fallback in case the server you’ve specified under “Server” in this section fails.
You’ll find the Backup Server IP address in your emails if you have requested this function beforehand. Otherwise, leave the field empty. |
| Tunnel Preset | The standard tunnel preset is “Bonding” which ensures best performance in regards to bandwidth.
The preset “Packet Duplication” is used for scenarios where reliability is key. Please choose this option wisely. |
Press “Save and Apply” to save your changes. Press “Restart Service” to activate them on your router.
WAN Interfaces
In this section, you can prioritize the use WAN connections with two sets of options according to your needs.
Preset
Every type of WAN link has different properties that make them suitable options for different needs. You can choose from 5 settings:
| Setting | Effect |
|---|---|
| Do not use | Disregards a WAN link. |
| Optimize for Latency | Optimizes a mobile link for reliability. |
| Optimize for Speed | Optimizes a mobile link for bandwidth. |
| Fixed Line (DSL, fiber) | Optimizes the usage of a physical WAN link. |
| Satellite | Optimizes the usage of a satellite link. |
Priority
Per default, WAN connections are prioritized in using their available bandwidth according to their latency. Low-latency connections have higher priority of use since, usually, ethernet connections like DSL are available physically in the vicinity of the router, decreasing their latency. The higher a connection’s latency gets, the lower Bondix S.A.NE sets its priority per default. You can choose from 3 settings: Default Priority / Higher Priority / Highest Priority
Example
You have 5 WAN links, 2 of which are 5G/LTE connections, and you only want to use those 2 evenly. To achieve that, you set 3 WAN links to “Do not use”, and your 2 mobile links to “Optimize for speed” and “Default priority”:
Advanced Settings
Make sure to choose the following advanced settings for the S.A.NE Client on your Teltonika router:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Enable Bonding Proxy | On
Enable this proxy if you’re bonding connections with vastly different latencies (e.g. DSL and 5G/LTE), since it optimizes TCP connections and increases your overall throughput. |
| Maximum Packet Size | 1400 |
| Packet HMAC | Disabled
Set this value to SHA256 only if you need tampering-proof data transfer, since it uses up a good portion of your bandwidth. |
Local Bondix Web Monitor
The local Bondix Web Monitor will enable you to have a look at the performance of your WAN links and configure their settings in real time. This is especially helpful if one of your WAN links does not perform as expected. However, any changes you make in the Web Monitor are only temporary and will be reset once the router is restarted.
Setup
To set up the Local Bondix Web Monitor, choose the following settings:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Enable local Bondix Web Monitor | On |
| Bondix Web Monitor IP | For the Bondix Web Monitor, any local IP address will do,
e.g. 192.168.1.1. |
| Bondix Web Monitor Port | For the Bondix Web Monitor, any unused port will do, e.g. 8088. |
| Bondix Web Monitor password | Set a password you easily remember, e.g. 123456. |
Access
After the initial setup, you’ll automatically be taken to the page https://[Bondix Web Monitor’s IP]:[Bondix Web Monitor’s port] Now, enter the name of the tunnel you want to monitor and the Bondix Web Monitor password, and confirm with “Senden”. This will take you right to the Bondix Web Monitor for the specific tunnel where you’ll get a graphical overview of the data traffic and the connection status of your connected WAN links:
Status Overview
In the Status overview, you can quickly see all facts to your Bondix S.A.NE Client, regarding your overall bonding as well as your individual channels.
| Entry | Information |
|---|---|
| Status | Tells you whether your Bondix S.A.NE Client is connected at all. |
| Connected Channels | Gives you the number of WAN links currently active. |
| Client IP | Shows IP/DNS addresses. |
| Current Endpoint | Shows Bondix S.A.NE server’s IP:Port. |
| Total Traffic | Shows total upload/download traffic. |
The Channel Information shows you which of your WAN links are available, connected and active, or faulty:
| Entry | Information |
|---|---|
| Name | The name you assigned to the specific WAN link. |
| Status | Tells you whether the WAN link is connected, disables, or faulty. |
| Latency | Shows WAN link’s current latency. |
| RX | Shows ? |
| TX | Shows ? |
| Last Error | Displays the error message of a faulty WAN link. |
