Host-specific Rust Console GuideG-Portal Rust Console bot setup workflow with Helios
This guide is for Rust Console owners using G-Portal who need a clean Helios setup path with host-aware validation and troubleshooting.
Run connection and command checks on one server first, then duplicate the same process to additional servers.
Quick take
Grab your server IP, WebRCON port, and RCON password from your G-Portal server settings, run /server add in Discord, then confirm it works with /cmd send command:"fps" and /whoson. That’s the whole connection.
Typical G-Portal workflow with Helios
- Collect host, port, and RCON password values directly from the active server settings page.
- Add the server in Helios and run command health checks before enabling modules.
- Enable killfeed and admin alerts first so support teams can verify live event flow.
Troubleshooting checklist for G-Portal owners
- If command tests fail, re-check port and password fields before changing anything else.
- Confirm the server is reachable and not in a temporary host maintenance state.
- Use one documented naming standard for servers to avoid command-target confusion.
Connect your G-Portal server in five steps
- In G-Portal, note your server’s IP/host, WebRCON port, and RCON password from the active server settings.
- In Discord, run
/server addwith those values. - Verify command execution:
/cmd send command:"fps"— you should get an FPS reading back. - Verify player tracking with
/whoson. - Turn on modules in
/settings server— killfeed and alerts first, then the rest.
Example
/server add name:"EU Main" ip:"<GPORTAL_IP>" rcon_port:28016 rcon_password:"<RCON_PASSWORD>"
/cmd send command:"fps" server:"EU Main"
/whoson server:"EU Main"

Frequently asked questions
- Where do I find the connection details in G-Portal?
- In your G-Portal server settings: the server host/IP, the WebRCON (connection) port, and the RCON password. Use the values from the currently active server.
- How do I know the connection works?
- Run
/cmd send command:"fps"— a healthy connection returns the server FPS. Then/whosonshould list online players. - Commands worked, then stopped after a restart — why?
- G-Portal restart and maintenance windows drop the connection temporarily. Wait for the server to come back, then re-run
/cmd sendand/whoson. If it stays down, re-check the password with/server edit. - Is Helios free to use with G-Portal?
- Yes. Connecting your server, killfeeds, feeds, shop, economy, battle pass, TP/home, zones, and binds are free to start. Premium unlocks ORP, clans, tickets, and automation.
