CARA REMOTE/AKSES ROUTER MIKROTIK (WINBOX, WEB BROWSER, TELNET DAN SSH)

Summary

In this video, Riswandi from Baitin Nabi channel demonstrates how to remotely access and configure a MikroTik router using three methods: Winbox, a web browser, and PuTTY. He starts by explaining how to use Winbox for direct router access via MAC or IP address. Next, he shows how to connect using a web browser by entering the router's IP. Finally, Riswandi covers remote access using PuTTY with SSH and Telnet, highlighting SSH for better security. The video is a helpful guide for those looking to configure MikroTik routers remotely with these tools.

Takeaways

• 😀 Winbox, web browser, and Putty are three tools that can be used to remotely access and configure MikroTik routers.
• 😀 Winbox allows you to connect using either the MAC address or the IP address of the router.
• 😀 When connecting via MAC address in Winbox, the default login is usually 'admin', and the router must have MAC access enabled.
• 😀 If the router has an IP address configured, you can access it using Winbox by entering the IP instead of the MAC address.
• 😀 In the case where no IP address is set, remote access can only be achieved via MAC address in Winbox.
• 😀 Web browsers like Google Chrome or Firefox can only connect to MikroTik routers using the IP address, not the MAC address.
• 😀 To connect via a web browser, enter the router’s IP address in the browser's address bar to access the login page.
• 😀 Putty is another tool for remote access, with two protocols available: Telnet (port 23) and SSH (port 22).
• 😀 SSH is recommended over Telnet due to its better security features when accessing the router remotely.
• 😀 Putty allows users to interact with the MikroTik router's Command Line Interface (CLI), which requires typing commands manually.
• 😀 For SSH access with Putty, users should ensure they use port 22 and provide the correct login credentials to access the router.

Q & A

What is the main objective of this video tutorial?

The main objective of the tutorial is to teach viewers how to remotely access and configure a MikroTik router using various tools like Winbox, Web Browser, and Putty.

What are the different methods mentioned to access a MikroTik router remotely?

The methods mentioned are using Winbox, Web Browser (Google Chrome or Firefox), and Putty (with Telnet and SSH).

Where can you download Winbox for remote access?

Winbox can be downloaded from the MikroTik website by visiting mikrotik.com and navigating to the 'Software' section.

How do you connect to the MikroTik router using Winbox?

To connect via Winbox, you can use either the MAC address or the IP address of the router. If the IP address is not configured, you can only use the MAC address to connect.

What is the difference between using MAC address and IP address to connect to a MikroTik router?

When using MAC address, the connection is possible even if the router's IP address is not configured. However, if the router's IP address is configured, both MAC address and IP address can be used for connection.

Can you access a MikroTik router using a Web Browser?

Yes, you can access the router using a Web Browser like Google Chrome or Firefox, but only by entering the router's IP address, not the MAC address.

What should you do if the router’s IP address is still set to 0.0.0.0?

If the router’s IP address is 0.0.0.0, you can only connect using the MAC address, as the IP address is not yet configured.

What is the recommended method for remote access when using Putty?

The recommended method for remote access with Putty is using SSH, as it is more secure than using Telnet.

What are the port numbers for Telnet and SSH when using Putty?

For Telnet, the port number is 23, and for SSH, the port number is 22.

Why is SSH preferred over Telnet for remote access to MikroTik routers?

SSH is preferred over Telnet because it provides better security by encrypting the data, while Telnet transmits data in plain text, making it less secure.
