Mikrotik User Manager as Radius Server


mikrotik user manager

I continue to post about hotspot billing system. Actually I wanted to post about Daloradius. However, because still need more experiments, then I delay for a while. And now I'm posting about the "user manager" of the Mikrotik. What is a user manager? User Manager is a RADIUS server application. It is a separate package for RouterOS.

Install User Manager.
1.      Check the Mikrotik, whether user-manager existing package. Click the System – Packages.
mikrotik - package list

2.      Download package "user-manager" in www.mikrotik.com / download. Select the package, according to the Mikrotik version you are using. If you are using a Mikrotik with package the old version, you can download the old version of the package in http://files.shelbybb.com/mikrotik/ or http://204.62.56.64/mikrotik/
3.      Open Winbox, then click user-manager.npk package already downloaded, and drag it to the Winbox. File will automatically be uploaded, and can be seen in Winbox - Files list.
install mikrotik user manager
4.      Restart.
5.      Check back in the Mikrotik, with the opening Winbox, System - Packages. File "user-manager" should be shown.

Mikrotik Configuration
See previous post about making mikrotik hotspot. http://myconfigure.blogspot.com/2013/05/configure-mikrotik-as-hotspot_9254.html.  If all is ok, proceed with the following steps. Open winbox, click Radius - then click the plus sign (+) to add. Open dialog box will appear. Enter the IP address of the Radius User Manager, secret, for example : testing123, port, and check the hotspot service. Then click OK. Remember : IP address of Radius Server must IP Wan of router Mikrotik or you can enter IP localhost  (127.0.0.1)

Back to Radius open dialog. Click Incoming. Check Accept, Port is 1700. Then OK.

Then in the hotspot dialog box, click server profiles tab. Click twice hsprof1. Then the new dialog box will appear. Click radius tab. Select use radius, and accounting. Then click OK.

Mikrotik User Manager
Finish to configure mikrotik, next open browser, and go to http://<ip-address-mikrotik>/userman. You will find login page user manager of mikrotik, enter default username : admin and blank password. Let’s begin to configure mikrotik user manager.
  • Configure Routers
Click routers – add – New.  In the new dialog box about router details, enter name, IP address, secret, and coa port. Look at example picture.

  • Configure Customer
For security, change password admin for login mikrotik user manager. Click customer, admin. And in customer details  box, enter  password, and other information.

Create a user in the "user manager", and then from the client computer browser, login using a user that has been created. If successful redirect and connect to the internet, meaning that the Mikroti User Manager has been successfully configured as a Radius Server.
Next, I will explain how to create voucher in User Manager.
