PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It relies on two widely accepted standards: PPP and Ethernet. It connects users through an Ethernet to the Internet with a common broadband medium, such as a single DSL line, wireless device or cable modem. All the users over the Ethernet can share a common connection. And the PPPoA stands for

Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM. PPPoA uses the PPP dial-up protocol with ATM as the transport.

PPPoE or PPPoA is used for most of DSL modem users. All local users can share one PPPoE or PPPoA connection for accessing the Internet. Your service provider will provide you information about user name, password, and authentication mode.

If your ISP provides you the PPPoE or PPPoA connection, please select PPPoE or PPPoA for this router. The following page will be shown:

IP means Internet Protocol. Every device in an IP-based Network including routers, print server, and host PCs, needs an IP address to identify its location on the network. To avoid address conflicts, IP addresses are publicly registered with the Network Information Centre

(NIC). Having a unique IP address is mandatory for those devices participated in the public network but not in the private TCP/IP local area networks (LANs), such as host PCs under the management of a router since they do not need to be accessed by the public. Hence, the NIC has reserved certain addresses that will never be registered publicly. These are known as

private IP addresses, and are listed in the following ranges: 18

From 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255

From 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255

From 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255

W h a t t a r e P u b l l i i c I I P A d d r e s s a n d P r i i v a t t e I I P A d d r r e s s

As the router plays a role to manage and further protect its LAN, it interconnects groups of host PCs. Each of them has a private IP address assigned by the built-in DHCP server of the

Vigor router. The router itself will also use the default private IP address: 192.168.1.1 to communicate with the local hosts. Meanwhile, Vigor router will communicate with other network devices through a public IP address. When the data flow passing through, the

Network Address Translation (NAT) function of the router will dedicate to translate public/private addresses, and the packets will be delivered to the correct host PC in the local area network. Thus, all the host PCs can share a common Internet connection.

G e t t Y o u r P u b l l i i c I I P A d d r e s s f f r o m I I S P

To acquire a public IP address from your ISP for Vigor router as a customer premises equipment, there are three common protocols: Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE),

PPPoA and MPoA. Multi-PVC is provided for more advanced setup of the above.

In ADSL deployment, the PPP (Point to Point)-style authentication and authorization is required for bridging customer premises equipment (CPE). Point to Point Protocol over

Ethernet (PPPoE) connects a network of hosts via an access device to a remote access concentrator or aggregation concentrator. This implementation provides users with significant ease of use. Meanwhile it provides access control, billing, and type of service according to user requirement.


When a router begins to connect to your ISP, a serial of discovery process will occur to ask for a connection. Then a session will be created. Your user ID and password is authenticated via

PAP or CHAP with RADIUS authentication system. And your IP address, DNS server, and other related information will usually be assigned by your ISP.

The most generic function of Vigor router is NAT. It creates a private subnet of your own. As mentioned previously, the router will talk to other public hosts on the Internet by using public

IP address and talking to local hosts by using its private IP address. What NAT does is to translate the packets from public IP address to private IP address to forward the right packets to the right host and vice versa. Besides, Vigor router has a built-in DHCP server that assigns private IP address to each local host. See the following diagram for a briefly understanding.

In some special case, you may have a public IP subnet from your ISP such as

220.135.240.0/24. This means that you can set up a public subnet or call second subnet that each host is equipped with a public IP address. As a part of the public subnet, the Vigor router will serve for IP routing to help hosts in the public subnet to communicate with other public hosts or servers outside. Therefore, the router should be set as the gateway for public hosts.


W h a t i s R o u t i n g I n f o r m a t i o n P r o t o c o l ( R I P )

Vigor router will exchange routing information with neighboring routers using the RIP to accomplish IP routing. This allows users to change the information of the router such as IP address and the routers will automatically inform for each other.

W h a t t i i s S t t a t t i i c R o u t t e

When you have several subnets in your LAN, sometimes a more effective and quicker way for connection is the Static routes function rather than other method. You may simply set rules to forward data from one specified subnet to another specified subnet without the presence of

RIP.

W h a t t a r e V i i r t t u a l l L A N s a n d R a t t e C o n t t r o l l

You can group local hosts by physical ports and create up to 4 virtual LANs. To manage the communication between different groups, please set up rules in Virtual LAN (VLAN) function and the rate of each.

2 nd

Subnet Mask An address code that determines the size of the network.

(Default: 255.255.255.0/ 24)

2 nd

DHCP Server You can configure the router to serve as a DHCP server for the 2nd subnet.


Start IP Address: Enter a value of the IP address pool for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 2nd IP address of your router is 220.135.240.1, the starting IP address must be

220.135.240.2 or greater, but smaller than 220.135.240.254.

IP Pool Counts: Enter the number of IP addresses in the pool. The maximum is 10. For example, if you type 3 and the 2nd IP address of your router is 220.135.240.1, the range of IP address by the DHCP server will be from 220.135.240.2 to 220.135.240.11.

MAC Address: Enter the MAC Address of the host one by one and click Add to create a list of hosts to be assigned, deleted or edited IP address from above pool. Set a list of MAC Address for 2 nd

DHCP server will help router to assign the correct IP address of the correct subnet to the correct host. So those hosts in 2 nd

subnet won’t get an

IP address belonging to 1 st

subnet.

RIP Protocol Control Disable deactivates the RIP protocol. It will lead to a stoppage of the exchange of routing information between routers. (Default)

DHCP Server

Configuration

1st Subnet - Select the router to change the RIP information of the

1st subnet with neighboring routers.

2nd Subnet - Select the router to change the RIP information of the

2nd subnet with neighboring routers.

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The router by factory default acts a DHCP server for your network so it automatically dispatch related IP settings to any local user configured as a DHCP client. It is highly recommended that you leave the router enabled as a DHCP server if you do not have a

DHCP server for your network.

If you want to use another DHCP server in the network other than the Vigor Router’s, you can let Relay Agent help you to redirect the

DHCP request to the specified location.

Enable Server - Let the router assign IP address to every host in the

LAN.

Disable Server – Let you manually assign IP address to every host in the LAN.

Relay Agent – (1 st

subnet/2 nd

subnet) Specify which subnet that

DHCP server is located the relay agent should redirect the DHCP request to.

Start IP Address - Enter a value of the IP address pool for the

DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 1st IP address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting IP address must be

192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254.

IP Pool Counts - Enter the maximum number of PCs that you want the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. The default is 50 and the maximum is 253.

Gateway IP Address - Enter a value of the gateway IP address for the DHCP server. The value is usually as same as the 1st IP address of the router, which means the router is the default gateway.

DHCP Server IP Address for Relay Agent - Set the IP address of


DNS Server

Configuration the DHCP server you are going to use so the Relay Agent can help to forward the DHCP request to the DHCP server.

DNS stands for Domain Name System. Every Internet host must have a unique IP address, also they may have a human-friendly, easy to remember name such as www.yahoo.com. The DNS server converts the user-friendly name into its equivalent IP address.

Force DNS manual setting -

Primary IP Address -You must specify a DNS server IP address here because your ISP should provide you with usually more than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the router will automatically apply default DNS Server IP address: 194.109.6.66 to this field.

Secondary IP Address - You can specify secondary DNS server IP address here because your ISP often provides you more than one

DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the router will automatically apply default secondary DNS Server IP address:

194.98.0.1 to this field.

The default DNS Server IP address can be found via Online Status:

If both the Primary IP and Secondary IP Address fields are left empty, the router will assign its own IP address to local users as a DNS proxy server and maintain a DNS cache.

If the IP address of a domain name is already in the DNS cache, the router will resolve the domain name immediately. Otherwise, the router forwards the DNS query packet to the external DNS server by establishing a WAN (e.g. DSL/Cable) connection.

There are two common scenarios of LAN settings that stated in Chapter 4. For the configuration examples, please refer to that chapter to get more information for your necessity.

Here is an example of setting Static Route in Main Router so that user A and B locating in different subnet can talk to each other via the router. Assuming the Internet access has been configured and the router works properly: z use the Main Router to surf the Internet. z create a private subnet 192.168.10.0 using an internal Router A (192.168.1.2) z create a public subnet 211.100.88.0 via an internal Router B (192.168.1.3). z have set Main Router 192.168.1.1 as the default gateway for the Router A 192.168.1.2.

Before setting Static Route, user A cannot talk to user B for Router A can only forward recognized packets to its default gateway Main Router.

1. Go to LAN page and click General Setup, select 1st Subnet as the RIP Protocol

Control. Then click the OK button.

Note: There are two reasons that we have to apply RIP Protocol Control on 1st

Subnet. The first is that the LAN interface can exchange RIP packets with the neighboring routers via the 1st subnet (192.168.1.0/24). The second is that those hosts on the internal private subnets (ex. 192.168.10.0/24) can access the Internet via the router, and continuously exchange of IP routing information with different subnets.


2. Click the LAN - Static Route and click on the Index Number 1. Please add a static route as shown below, which regulates all packets destined to 192.168.10.0 will be forwarded to 192.168.1.2. Click OK.

3. Return to Static Route Setup page. Click on another Index Number to add another static route as show below, which regulates all packets destined to 211.100.88.0 will be forwarded to 192.168.1.3.

Usually, the router serves as an NAT (Network Address Translation) router. NAT is a mechanism that one or more private IP addresses can be mapped into a single public one.

Public IP address is usually assigned by your ISP, for which you may get charged. Private IP addresses are recognized only among internal hosts.

When the outgoing packets destined to some public server on the Internet reach the NAT router, the router will change its source address into the public IP address of the router, select the available public port, and then forward it. At the same time, the router shall list an entry in a table to memorize this address/port-mapping relationship. When the public server response, the incoming traffic, of course, is destined to the router’s public IP address and the router will do the inversion based on its table. Therefore, the internal host can communicate with external host smoothly.

The benefit of the NAT includes: z

Save cost on applying public IP address and apply efficient usage of IP address.

NAT allows the internal IP addresses of local hosts to be translated into one public IP address, thus you can have only one IP address on behalf of the entire internal hosts. z

Enhance security of the internal network by obscuring the IP address. There are many attacks aiming victims based on the IP address. Since the attacker cannot be aware of any private IP addresses, the NAT function can protect the internal network.

Note: On NAT page, you will see the private IP address defined in RFC-1918. Usually

we use the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet for the router. As stated before, the NAT facility can map one or more IP addresses and/or service ports into different specified services. In other words, the NAT function can be achieved by using port mapping methods.

Port Redirection is usually set up for server related service inside the local network (LAN), such as web servers, FTP servers, E-mail servers etc. Most of the case, you need a public IP address for each server and this public IP address/domain name are recognized by all users.

Since the server is actually located inside the LAN, the network well protected by NAT of the router, and identified by its private IP address/port, the goal of Port Redirection function is to forward all access request with public IP address from external users to the mapping private IP address/port of the server.


The port redirection can only apply to incoming traffic. The server users inside the LAN can not access public IP address of the server. The correct route is to access the server using the local private IP address of the server, or you should set up an alias in a Windows hosts file.

Please only redirect the ports you know you have to forward rather than forward all ports.

Otherwise, you will compromise the firewall-type security initially deployed by the NAT facility.

To use this function, please go to NAT page and choose Port Redirection web page. The

Port Redirection Table provides 10 port-mapping entries for the internal hosts.

Enter the description of the specific network service.

Select the transport layer protocol (TCP or UDP).

Select one of the WAN IP selections for port redirection. Only the selected WAN IP with incoming data will be redirected to the specified IP. If you choose All, all incoming traffic through any

Specify which port can be redirected to the specified Private IP and

Port of the internal host.

Private IP

Private Port

Specify the private IP address of the internal host providing the service.

Check this box to activate the port-mapping entry you have defined. Active

Note that the router has its own built-in services (servers) such as Telnet, HTTP and FTP etc.

Since the common port numbers of these services (servers) are all the same, you may need to reset the router’s in order to avoid confliction.

For example, the built-in web configurator in the router is with default port 80, which may conflict with the web server in the local network, http://192.168.1.13:80. Therefore, you need to change the router’s http port to any one other than the default port 80 to avoid conflict, such as 8080. This can be set in the System Maintenance >>Management. You then will access the admin screen of by suffixing the IP address with 8080, e.g., http://192.168.1.1:8080 instead of port 80.

As mentioned above, Port Redirection can redirect incoming TCP/UDP or other traffic on particular ports to the specific private IP address/port of host in the LAN. However, other IP protocols, for example Protocols 50 (ESP) and 51 (AH), do not travel on a fixed port. Vigor router provides a facility DMZ Host that map ALL unsolicited data on any protocol to a single host in the LAN. Regular web surfing and other such Internet activities from other clients will continue to work without inappropriate interruption. DMZ Host allows a defined internal user to be totally exposed to the Internet, which usually helps some special applications such as Netmeeting or Internet Games etc.


The inherent security properties of NAT are somewhat bypassed if you set up DMZ host. We suggest you to add additional filter rules or a secondary firewall.

While the broadband users demand more bandwidth for multimedia, interactive applications, or distance learning, security has been always the most concerned. The firewall of the Vigor router helps to protect your local network against attack from unauthorized outsiders. It also restricts users in the local network from accessing the Internet. Furthermore, it can filter out specific packets that trigger the router to build an unwanted outgoing connection.

The most basic security concept is to set user name and password while you install your router.

The administrator login will prevent unauthorized access to the router configuration from your router.

If you did not set password during installation; you can go to System Maintenance to set up your password.

F i i r e w a l l l l F a c i i l l i i t t i i e s

The users on the LAN are provided with secured protection by the following firewall facilities: z User-configurable IP filter (Call Filter/ Data Filter). z Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI): tracks packets and denies unsolicited incoming data z Selectable Denial of Service (DoS) /Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks protection z

URL/Web Content Filter


I I P F i i l l t t e r s

Depending on whether there is an existing Internet connection, or in other words “the WAN link status is up or down”, the IP filter architecture categorizes traffic into two: Call Filter and

Data Filter. z

Call Filter - When there is no existing Internet connection, Call Filter is applied to all traffic, all of which should be outgoing. It will check packets according to the filter rules.

If legal, the packet will pass. Then the router shall “initiate a call” to build the Internet connection and send the packet to Internet. z

Data Filter - When there is an existing Internet connection, Data Filter is applied to incoming and outgoing traffic. It will check packets according to the filter rules. If legal, the packet will pass the router.

The following illustrations are flow charts explaining how router will treat incoming traffic and outgoing traffic respectively.

S t t a t t e f f u l l P a c k e t t I I n s p e c t t i i o n ( ( S P I I ) )

Stateful inspection is a firewall architecture that works at the network layer. Unlike legacy static packet filtering, which examines a packet based on the information in its header, stateful inspection builds up a state machine to track each connection traversing all interfaces of the firewall and makes sure they are valid. The stateful firewall of Vigor router not just examine the header information also monitor the state of the connection.

As the popularity of all kinds of instant messenger application arises, communication cannot become much easier. Nevertheless, while some industry may leverage this as a great tool to connect with their customers, some industry may take reserve attitude in order to reduce employee misusage during office hour or prevent unknown security leak. It is similar situation for corporation towards peer-to-peer applications since file-sharing can be convenient but insecure at the same time. To address these needs, we provide IM and P2P blocking functionality.

D e n i i a l l o f f S e r v i i c e ( ( D o S ) ) D e f f e n s e

The DoS Defense functionality helps you to detect and mitigate the DoS attack. The attacks are usually categorized into two types, the flooding-type attacks and the vulnerability attacks.

The flooding-type attacks will attempt to exhaust all your system's resource while the vulnerability attacks will try to paralyze the system by offending the vulnerabilities of the protocol or operation system.

The DoS Defense function enables the Vigor router to inspect every incoming packet based on the attack signature database. Any malicious packet that might duplicate itself to paralyze the host in the secure LAN will be strictly blocked and a Syslog message will be sent as warning, if you set up Syslog server.

Also the Vigor router monitors the traffic. Any abnormal traffic flow violating the pre-defined parameter, such as the number of thresholds, is identified as an attack and the Vigor router will activate its defense mechanism to mitigate in a real-time manner.

The below shows the attack types that DoS/DDoS defense function can detect:

1. SYN flood attack

2. UDP flood attack

3. ICMP flood attack

4. TCP Flag scan

5. Trace route

6. IP options

7. Unknown protocol

8. Land attack

9. Smurf attack

10. SYN fragment

11. ICMP fragment

12. Tear drop attack

13. Fraggle attack

14. Ping of Death attack

15. TCP/UDP port scan

To provide an appropriate cyberspace to users, Vigor router equips with URL Content Filter not only to limit illegal traffic from/to the inappropriate web sites but also prohibit other web feature where malicious code may conceal.

Once a user type in or click on an URL with objectionable keywords, URL keyword blocking facility will decline the HTTP request to that web page thus can limit user’s access to the website. You may imagine URL Content Filter as a well-trained convenience-store clerk who won’t sell adult magazines to teenagers. At office, URL Content Filter can also provide a job-related only environment hence to increase the employee work efficiency. How can URL

Content Filter work better than traditional firewall in the field of filtering? Because it checks the URL strings or some of HTTP data hiding in the payload of TCP packets while legacy firewall inspects packets based on the fields of TCP/IP headers only.

On the other hand, Vigor router can prevent user from accidentally downloading malicious codes from web pages. It’s very common that malicious codes conceal in the executable objects, such as ActiveX, Java Applet, compressed files, and other executable files. Once downloading these types of files from websites, you may risk bringing threat to your system. For example, an


ActiveX control object is usually used for providing interactive web feature. If malicious code hides inside, it may occupy user’s system.

W e b C o n t t e n t t F i i l l t t e r i i n g

We all know that the content on the Internet just like other types of media may be inappropriate sometimes. As a responsible parent or employer, you should protect those in your trust against the hazards. With Web filtering service of the Vigor router, you can protect your business from common primary threats, such as productivity, legal liability, network and security threats. For parents, you can protect your children from viewing adult websites or chat rooms.

Once you have activated your Web Filtering service in Vigor router and chosen the categories of website you wish to restrict, each URL address requested (e.g.www.bbc.co.uk) will be checked against our server database, powered by SurfControl. The database covering over 70 languages and 200 countries, over 1 billion Web pages divided into 40 easy-to-understand categories. This database is updated as frequent as daily by a global team of Internet researchers. The server will look up the URL and return a category to your router. Your Vigor router will then decide whether to allow access to this site according to the categories you have selected. Please note that this action will not introduce any delay in your Web surfing because each of multiple load balanced database servers can handle millions of requests for categorization.

Some on-line games (for example: Half Life) will use lots of fragmented UDP packets to transfer game data. Instinctively as a secure firewall, Vigor router will reject these fragmented packets to prevent attack unless you enable “Accept Incoming Fragmented UDP Packets”. By checking this box, you can play these kinds of on-line games. If security concern is in higher priority, you cannot enable “Accept Incoming Fragmented UDP Packets”.

Enable UDP flood defense

Check the box to activate the SYN flood defense function. Once detecting the Threshold of the TCP SYN packets from the Internet has exceeded the defined value, the Vigor router will start to randomly discard the subsequent TCP SYN packets for a period defined in Timeout. The goal for this is prevent the TCP SYN packets’ attempt to exhaust the limited-resource of Vigor router.

By default, the threshold and timeout values are set to 50 packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively.

Check the box to activate the UDP flood defense function. Once detecting the Threshold of the UDP packets from the Internet has exceeded the defined value, the Vigor router will start to randomly discard the subsequent UDP packets for a period defined in

Timeout. The default setting for threshold and timeout are 150 packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively.

Enable ICMP flood defense

Enable PortScan detection

Check the box to activate the ICMP flood defense function. Similar to the UDP flood defense function, once if the Threshold of ICMP packets from Internet has exceeded the defined value, the router will discard the ICMP echo requests coming from the Internet. The default setting for threshold and timeout are 50 packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively.

Block trace router detecting this malicious exploration behavior by monitoring the port-scanning Threshold rate, the Vigor router will send out a warning. By default, the Vigor router sets the threshold as 150 packets per second.

Check the box to activate the Block IP options function. The Vigor router will ignore any IP packets with IP option field in the datagram header. The reason for limitation is IP option appears to be a vulnerability of the security for the LAN because it will carry significant information, such as security, TCC (closed user group) parameters, a series of Internet addresses, routing messages...etc. An eavesdropper outside might learn the details of your private networks.

Check the box to enforce the Vigor router to defense the Land attacks.

The Land attack combines the SYN attack technology with IP spoofing. A Land attack occurs when an attacker sends spoofed SYN packets with the identical source and destination addresses, as well as the port number to victims.

Check the box to activate the Block Smurf function. The Vigor router will ignore any broadcasting ICMP echo request.

Check the box to enforce the Vigor router not to forward any trace route packets.

Block SYN fragment Check the box to activate the Block SYN fragment function. The

Vigor router will drop any packets having SYN flag and more fragment bit set.

Block Fraggle Attack Check the box to activate the Block fraggle Attack function. Any broadcast UDP packets received from the Internet is blocked.

Activating the DoS/DDoS defense functionality might block some legal packets. For example, when you activate the fraggle attack defense, all broadcast UDP packets coming from the Internet are blocked. Therefore, the RIP packets from the Internet might be dropped.

Block TCP flag scan Check the box to activate the Block TCP flag scan function. Any TCP packet with anomaly flag setting is dropped. Those scanning activities include no flag scan, FIN without ACK scan, SYN FINscan, Xmas

scan and full Xmas scan.

Block Tear Drop Check the box to activate the Block Tear Drop function. Many machines may crash when receiving ICMP datagrams (packets) that exceed the maximum length. To avoid this type of attack, the Vigor router is designed to be capable of discarding any fragmented ICMP packets with a length greater than 1024 octets.

Block Ping of Death Check the box to activate the Block Ping of Death function. This attack involves the perpetrator sending overlapping packets to the target hosts so that those target hosts will hang once they re-construct the packets. The Vigor routers will block any packets realizing this attacking activity.

Block ICMP Fragment Check the box to activate the Block ICMP fragment function. Any

ICMP packets with more fragment bit set are dropped.

3 Q u a l l i i t t y o f f S e r v i i c e

Deploying QoS (Quality of Service) management to guarantee that all applications receive the service levels required and sufficient bandwidth to meet performance expectations is indeed one important aspect of modern enterprise network.

One reason for QoS is that numerous TCP-based applications tend to continually increase their transmission rate and consume all available bandwidth, which is called TCP slow start. If other applications are not protected by QoS, it will detract much from their performance in the overcrowded network. This is especially essential to those are low tolerant of loss, delay or jitter (delay variation).

Another reason is due to congestions at network intersections where speeds of interconnected circuits mismatch or traffic aggregates, packets will queue up and traffic can be throttled back to a lower speed. If there’s no defined priority to specify which packets should be discarded

(or in another term “dropped”) from an overflowing queue, packets of sensitive applications mentioned above might be the ones to drop off. How this will affect application performance?

There are two components within Primary configuration of QoS deployment: z

Classification: Identifying low-latency or crucial applications and marking them for high-priority service level enforcement throughout the network. z

Scheduling: Based on classification of service level to assign packets to queues and associated service types

The basic QoS implementation in Vigor routers is to classify and schedule packets based on the service type information in the IP header. For instance, to ensure the connection with the headquarter, a teleworker may enforce an index of QoS Control to reserve bandwidth for

HTTPS connection while using lots of application at the same time.

One more larger-scale implementation of QoS network is to apply DSCP (Differentiated

Service Code Point) and IP Precedence disciplines at Layer 3. Compared with legacy IP

Precedence that uses Type of Service (ToS) field in the IP header to define 8 service classes,

DSCP is a successor creating 64 classes possible with backward IP Precedence compatibility.

In a QoS-enabled network, or Differentiated Service (DiffServ or DS) framework, a DS domain owner should sign a Service License Agreement (SLA) with other DS domain owners to define the service level provided toward traffic from different domains. Then each DS node in these domains will perform the priority treatment. This is called per-hop-behavior (PHB).

The definition of PHB includes Expedited Forwarding (EF), Assured Forwarding (AF), and


Best Effort (BE). AF defines the four classes of delivery (or forwarding) classes and three levels of drop precedence in each class.

Vigor routers as edge routers of DS domain shall check the marked DSCP value in the IP header of bypassing traffic, thus to allocate certain amount of resource execute appropriate policing, classification or scheduling. The core routers in the backbone will do the same checking before executing treatments in order to ensure service-level consistency throughout the whole QoS-enabled network.

However, each node may take different attitude toward packets with high priority marking since it may bind with the business deal of SLA among different DS domain owners. It’s not easy to achieve deterministic and consistent high-priority QoS traffic throughout the whole network with merely Vigor router’s effort.

In the Bandwidth Management menu, click Quality of Service to open the web page.

Enable the QoS Control The factory default for this setting is checked.

Direction Define which traffic the QoS Control settings apply to.

The ISP often provides you with a dynamic IP address when you connect to the Internet via your ISP. It means that the public IP address assigned to your router changes each time you access the Internet. The Dynamic DNS feature lets you assign a domain name to a dynamic

WAN IP address. It allows the router to update its online WAN IP address mappings on the specified Dynamic DNS server. Once the router is online, you will be able to use the registered domain name to access the router or internal virtual servers from the Internet. It is particularly helpful if you host a web server, FTP server, or other server behind the router.

Before you use the Dynamic DNS feature, you have to apply for free DDNS service to the

DDNS service providers. The router provides up to three accounts from three different DDNS service providers. Basically, Vigor routers are compatible with the DDNS services supplied by most popular DDNS service providers such as www.dyndns.org, www.no-ip.com,

www.dtdns.com, www.changeip.com, www.dynamic- nameserver.com. You should visit their websites to register your own domain name for the router.

Enable the Function and Add a Dynamic DNS Account

1. Assume you have a registered domain name from the DDNS provider, say

hostname.dyndns.org, and an account with username: test and password: test.

2. In the DDNS setup menu, check Enable Dynamic DNS Setup.


3. Select Index number 1 to add an account for the router. Check Enable Dynamic DNS

Account, and choose correct Service Provider: dyndns.org, type the registered hostname:

hostname and domain name suffix: dyndns.org in the Domain Name block. The following two blocks should be typed your account Login Name: test and Password: test.

The Vigor router has a built-in real time clock which can update itself manually or automatically by means of Network Time Protocols (NTP). As a result, you can not only schedule the router to dialup to the Internet at a specified time, but also restrict Internet access to certain hours so that users can connect to the Internet only during certain hours, say, business hours. The schedule is also applicable to other functions.


You have to set your time before set schedule. In System Maintenance>> Time and Date menu, press Inquire Time button to set the Vigor router’s clock to current time of your PC.

The clock will reset once if you power down or reset the router. There is another way to set up time. You can inquiry an NTP server (a time server) on the Internet to synchronize the router’s clock. This method can only be applied when the WAN connection has been built up.

You can set up to 15 schedules. Then you can apply them to your Internet Access or VPN

and Remote Access >> LAN-to-LAN settings.

To add a schedule, please click any index, say Index No. 1. The detailed settings of the call schedule with index 1 are shown below.

Enable Schedule Setup Check to enable the schedule.

Start Date (yyyy-mm-dd) Specify the starting date of the schedule.

Start Time (hh:mm) Specify the starting time of the schedule.

Duration Time (hh:mm) Specify the duration (or period) for the schedule.

Action Specify which action Call Schedule should apply during the period of the schedule.

Force On -Force the connection to be always on.

Force Down -Force the connection to be always down.

Enable Dial-On-Demand -Specify the connection to be dial-on-demand and the value of idle timeout should be specified in Idle Timeout field.

Disable Dial-On-Demand -Specify the connection to be up


Idle Timeout when it has traffic on the line. Once there is no traffic over idle timeout, the connection will be down and never up again during the schedule.

Specify the duration (or period) for the schedule.

How often -Specify how often the schedule will be applied

Once -The schedule will be applied just once

Weekdays -Specify which days in one week should perform the schedule.

Example

Suppose you want to control the PPPoE Internet access connection to be always on (Force On) from 9:00 to 18:00 for whole week (office hour). Other time the Internet access connection should be disconnected (Force Down).

Office

Hour:

(Force On)

Mon - Sun 9:00 am to 6:00 pm

1. Make sure the PPPoE connection and Time Setup is working properly.

2. Configure the PPPoE always on from 9:00 to 18:00 for whole week.

3. Configure the Force Down from 18:00 to next day 9:00 for whole week.

4. Assign these two profiles to the PPPoE Internet access profile. Now, the PPPoE Internet connection will follow the schedule order to perform Force On or Force Down action according to the time plan that has been pre-defined in the schedule profiles.

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a security authentication client/server protocol that supports authentication, authorization and accounting, which is widely used by Internet service providers. It is the most common method of authenticating and authorizing dial-up and tunneled network users.

The built-in RADIUS client feature enables the router to assist the remote dial-in user or a wireless station and the RADIUS server in performing mutual authentication. It enables centralized remote access authentication for network management.

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol is supported to bring to network connected devices the ease of installation and configuration which is already available for directly connected PC peripherals with the existing Windows 'Plug and Play' system. For NAT routers, the major feature of UPnP on the router is “NAT Traversal”. This enables applications inside the firewall to automatically open the ports that they need to pass through a router. It is more reliable than requiring a router to work out by itself which ports need to be opened. Further, the user does not have to manually set up port mappings or a DMZ. UPnP is available on

Windows XP and the router provides the associated support for MSN Messenger to allow full use of the voice, video and messaging features.

Enable UPNP Service Accordingly, you can enable either the Connection Control

Service or Connection Status Service.

After setting Enable UPNP Service setting, an icon of IP Broadband Connection on Router on Windows XP/Network Connections will appear. The connection status and control status will be able to be activated. The NAT Traversal of UPnP enables the multimedia features of your applications to operate. This has to manually set up port mappings or use other similar methods. The screenshots below show examples of this facility.


The UPnP facility on the router enables UPnP aware applications such as MSN Messenger to discover what are behind a NAT router. The application will also learn the external IP address and configure port mappings on the router. Subsequently, such a facility forwards packets from the external ports of the router to the internal ports used by the application.

The reminder as regards concern about Firewall and UPnP

Can't work with Firewall Software

Enabling firewall applications on your PC may cause the UPnP function not working properly. This is because these applications will block the accessing ability of some network ports.

Security Considerations

Activating the UPnP function on your network may incur some security threats. You should consider carefully these risks before activating the UPnP function.

¾ Some Microsoft operating systems have found out the UPnP weaknesses and hence you need to ensure that you have applied the latest service packs and patches.

¾ Non-privileged users can control some router functions, including removing and adding port mappings.


The UPnP function dynamically adds port mappings on behalf of some UPnP-aware applications. When the applications terminate abnormally, these mappings may not be removed.

This submenu only applies to PPP-related VPN connections, such as PPTP, L2TP, L2TP over

IPSec.

Dial-In PPP Authentication PAP Only Select this option to force the router to authenticate dial-in users with the PAP protocol.

PAP or CHAP Selecting this option means the router will attempt to authenticate dial-in users with the CHAP protocol first. If the dial-in user does not support this protocol, it will fall back to use the PAP protocol for authentication.

Dial-In PPP Encryption (MPPE Optional MPPE) This option represents that the MPPE encryption method will be optionally employed in the router for the remote dial-in user. If the remote dial-in user does not support the MPPE encryption algorithm, the router will transmit

“no MPPE encrypted packets”. Otherwise, the MPPE encryption scheme will be used to encrypt the data.

Require MPPE (40/128bits) Selecting this option will force the router to encrypt packets by using the MPPE encryption algorithm. In addition, the remote dial-in user will use 40-bit to perform encryption prior to using

128-bit for encryption. In other words, if 40-bit MPPE encryption method is not available, then 128-bit encryption scheme will be applied to encrypt the data.

Maximum MPPE This option indicates that the router will use the MPPE encryption scheme with maximum bits (128 bits) to encrypt the data.

Mutual Authentication (PAP) The Mutual Authentication function is mainly used to communicate with other routers or clients who need bi-directional authentication in order to provide stronger security, for example, Cisco routers. So you should enable this function when your peer router requires mutual authentication.

You should further specify the User Name and Password of the mutual authentication peer.

Start IP Address Enter a start IP address for the dial-in PPP connection. You should choose an IP address from the local private network.

For example, if the local private network is

192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, you could choose 192.168.1.202 to be the Start IP Address.

In IPSec General Setup, there are two major parts of configuration.

There are two phases of IKE/IPSec.

¾ Phase 1: negotiation of IKE parameters including encryption, hash, Diffie-Hellman parameter values, and lifetime to protect the following IKE exchange, authentication of both peers using either a Pre-Shared Key or Digital Signature (x.509). The peer that starts the negotiation proposes all its policies to the remote peer and then remote peer tries to find a highest-priority match with its policies. Eventually to set up a secure tunnel for IKE Phase 2.

¾ Phase 2: negotiation IPSec security methods including Authentication Header (AH) and/or Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) for the following IKE exchange and mutual examination of the secure tunnel establishment.

Authentication Header (AH) provides data authentication and integrity for IP packets passed between VPN peers. This is achieved by a keyed one-way hash function to the packet to create a message digest. This digest will be put in the AH and transmitted along with packets. On the receiving side, the peer will perform the same one-way hash on the packet and compare the value with the one in the AH it receives.

Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) is a security protocol that provides data confidentiality and protection with optional authentication and replay detection service. Vigor supports IPSec used ESP to encrypt the data payload. There are two encryption methods in IPSec: Transport and Tunnel. Transport mode encrypts only the data portion, a.k.a. payload, of each packet, but not the header. Transport mode is used in L2TP over IP Sec. The more secure Tunnel mode encrypts both the header and the payload. Tunnel mode is used in IPSec. ESP can be used alone or in conjunction with AH.

IKE Authentication Method This usually applies to those are remote dial-in user or node

(LAN-to-LAN) which uses dynamic IP address and

IPSec-related VPN connections such as L2TP over IPSec and

IPSec tunnel.

Pre-Shared Key -Currently only support Pre-Shared Key authentication.

Pre-Shared Key- Specify a key for IKE authentication

Re-type Pre-Shared Key-Confirm the pre-shared key.

IPSec Security Method Medium - Authentication Header (AH) means data will be authenticated, but not be encrypted. By default, this option is


active.

High - Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) means payload

(data) will be encrypted and authenticated. You may select encryption algorithm from Data Encryption Standard (DES),

Triple DES (3DES), and AES.

Idle Timeout: The default value is 300 seconds. If the connection has been idled over the value, the router will drop the connection.

Enable PING to keep alive This function is to help the router to determine the status of

IPSec VPN connection, especially useful in the case of abnormal VPN IPSec tunnel disruption. For details, please refer to the note below. Check to enable the transmission of PING packets to a specified IP address.

PING to the IP Enter the IP address of the remote host that located at the other-end of the VPN tunnel.

Enable PING to Keep Alive is used to handle abnormal IPSec

VPN connection disruption. It will help to provide the state of a

VPN connection for router’s judgment of redial.

Normally, if any one of VPN peers wants to disconnect the connection, it should follow a serial of packet exchange


procedure to inform each other. However, if the remote peer disconnect without notice, Vigor router will by no where to know this situation. To resolve this dilemma, by continuously sending PING packets to the remote host, the Vigor router can know the true existence of this VPN connection and react accordingly.

A digital certificate works as an electronic ID, which is issued by a certification authority

(CA). It contains information such as your name, a serial number, expiration dates etc., and the digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that a recipient can verify that the certificate is real. Here Vigor router support digital certificates conforming to standard X.509.

Any entity wants to utilize digital certificates should first request a certificate issued by a CA server. It should also retrieve certificates of other trusted CA servers so it can authenticate the peer with certificates issued by those trusted CA servers.

Here you can manage generate and manage the local digital certificates, and set trusted CA certificates. Remember to adjust the time of Vigor router before using the certificate so that you can get the correct valid period of certificate.

9 V o I I P ( ( f f o r r V m o d e l l o n l l y ) )

Voice over IP network (VoIP) enables you to use your broadband Internet connection to make toll quality voice calls over the Internet.

There are many different call signaling protocols, methods by which VoIP devices can talk to each other. The most popular protocols are SIP, MGCP, Megaco and H.323. These protocols are not all compatible with each other (except via a soft-switch server).

The Vigor V models support the SIP protocol as this is an ideal and convenient deployment for the ITSP (Internet Telephony Service Provider) and softphone and is widely supported.

SIP is an end-to-end, signaling protocol that establishes user presence and mobility in VoIP structure. Every one who wants to talk using his/her SIP Uniform Resource Identifier, “SIP

Address”. The standard format of SIP URI is sip: user:password @ host: port

Some fields may be optional in different use. In general, "host” refers to a domain. The

“userinfo” includes the user field, the password field and the @ sign following them. This is very similar to a URL so some may call it “SIP URL”. SIP supports peer-to-peer direct calling and also calling via a SIP proxy server (a role similar to the gatekeeper in H.323 networks), while the MGCP protocol uses client-server architecture, the calling scenario being very similar to the current PSTN network.

After a call is setup, the voice streams transmit via RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol).

Different codecs (methods to compress and encode the voice) can be embedded into RTP packets. Vigor V models provide various codecs, including G.711 A/µ-law, G.723, G.726 and

G.729 A & B. Each codec uses a different bandwidth and hence provides different levels of voice quality. The more bandwidth a codec uses the better the voice quality, however the codec used must be appropriate for your Internet bandwidth.

Usually there will be two types of calling scenario, as illustrated below: z Calling via SIP Servers

First, the Vigor V models of yours will have to register to a SIP Registrar by sending registration messages to validate. Then, both parties’ SIP proxies will forward the sequence of messages to caller to establish the session.

If you both register to the same SIP Registrar, then it will be illustrated as below:


The major benefit of this mode is that you don’t have to memorize your friend’s IP address, which might change very frequently if it’s dynamic. Instead of that, you will only have to using dial plan or directly dial your friend’s account name if you are with the same SIP Registrar. Please refer to the Example 1 and 2 in the Calling Scenario. z

Peer-to-Peer

Before calling, you have to know your friend’s IP Address. The Vigor VoIP Routers will build connection between each other. Please refer to the Example 3 in the Calling

Scenario.

Our Vigor V models firstly apply efficient codecs designed to make the best use of available bandwidth, but Vigor V models also equip with automatic QoS assurance.

QoS Assurance assists to assign high priority to voice traffic via Internet. You will always have the required inbound and outbound bandwidth that is prioritized exclusively for Voice traffic over Internet but you just get your data a little slower and it is tolerable for data traffic.

Country Code

Own Number

Click Enable to open the ISDN port and Disable to close it.

For proper operation on your local ISDN network, you should choose the correct country code.

Enter your ISDN number. Every outgoing call will carry the number to the receiver.

Blocked MSN Numbers for the

router

Enter the specified MSN number into the fields to prevent the router from dialing the specific MSN number.

MSN Numbers for the Router MSN Numbers mean that the router is able to accept only number-matched incoming calls. In addition, MSN services should be supported by local ISDN network provider. The router provides three fields for MSN numbers. Note that MSN services must be acquired from your local telecommunication operators. By default, MSN function is disabled. If you leave the fields blank, all incoming calls will be accepted without number matching.

1,2,3 fields – Fill in the portion that is different with the own number.

For example, the own number is 1234567 and three MSN numbers are 1234550, 1234517 and 1234582 respectively.

You can type in 1234567 in the filed of own number. Fill in 50, 17 and 67 on the fields of 1,2 and 3 one by one without typing 12345.

Mapping to VoIP Ports Check to specify ringing from FXS1 and/or FXS2 when the router accepts the incoming calls by identifying MSN number(s). If you do not specify any port in this field, the

ISDN loop through ring port will be determined by the configuration in ISDN port in VoIP>>Phone Settings.

Virtual TA means the local hosts or PCs in the network that uses popular CAPI-based software such as RVS-COM or BVRP to access the router as a local ISDN TA for sending or receiving FAX messages over the ISDN line. Basically, it is a client/server network model.

The built-in Virtual TA server handles the establishment and release of connections. The

Virtual TA client, which is installed on the local hosts or PCs, creates a CAPI-based driver to relay all CAPI messages between the applications and the router CAPI module. Before describing the configuration of Virtual TA in the Vigor routers, please notice the following limitations. z

The Virtual TA client only supports Microsoft

TM

Windows 98/SE/2000/XP platforms. z

The Virtual TA client only supports the CAPI 2.0 protocol and has no built-in FAX engine. z

One ISDN BRI interface has two B channels. The maximum number of active clients is also two. z

Before you configure the Virtual TA, you must set the correct country code.


As depicted in the above application scenario, the Virtual TA client can make an outgoing call or accept an incoming call to/from a peer FAX machine or ISDN TA, etc.

Before describing the configuration of Virtual TA in the Vigor routers, please heed the following limitations. z

The Virtual TA client only supports Microsoft

Before you configure the Virtual TA, you must set the correct country code in ISDN

Setup.

Virtual TA Server Enable: Select it to activate the server.

Disable: Select it to deactivate the server. All Virtual TA applications will be terminated.

Virtual TA User Profiles Username - Enter the username of a specific client.

Password - Enter the password of a specific client.

MSN 1/2/3 - MSN stands for Multiple Subscriber Number. It means you can apply to more than one ISDN lines number over a single subscribed line. Note that the service must be acquired


from your telecom. Specify the MSN numbers for a specific client. If you have no MSN services, leave this field blank.

Active - Check it to enable the client to access the server.

I n s t a l l l a V i i r t u a l T A C l i e n t

1. Insert the CD-ROM bundled with your Vigor router. Find VTA Client tool in the Utility menu and click on the Install button.

2. Follow the on-screen instructions of the installer. The last step will ask you to restart your computer. Click OK to restart your computer.

3. After the computer restarts, you will see a VT icon in the taskbar (usually in the bottom-right of the screen, near the clock) as shown below.

When the icon text is GREEN, the Virtual TA client is connected to the Virtual TA server and you can launch your CAPI-based software to use the client to access the router. If the icon text is RED, it means the client has lost the connection to the server. This time, please check the physical Ethernet connection.

C o n f f i i g u r e a V i i r t t u a l l T A C l l i i e n t t / / S e r v e r

Since the Virtual TA application is a client/server network model, you must configure it on both ends to run properly your Virtual TA application.

By default, the Virtual TA server is enabled and the Username/Password fields are left blank.

Any Virtual TA client may login to the server. Once a single Username/Password field has been filled in, the Virtual TA server will only allow clients with a valid Username/Password to login. The screen of Virtual TA configuration is presented below.

U s e r P r o f i l e

Note that creating a single user access account will limit the access to the Virtual TA server to only the specified account holders.

Assume you did not acquire any MSN service from your ISDN network provider.

On the server - Click Virtual TA (Remote CAPI) Setup link, and fill in the Username and

Password fields. Check the Active box to enable the account.

On the client - Right-click the mouse on the VT icon. The following pop-up menu will be shown.


Click the Virtual TA Login tab to launch the login box.

Enter the Username/Password and then click OK. After a short time, the VT icon text will turn green.

Some applications require that the router (only for the ISDN models) be remotely activated, or be able to dial up to the ISP via the ISDN interface. Vigor routers provide this feature by allowing user to make a phone call to the router and then ask it to dial up to the ISP.

Accordingly, a teleworker can access the remote network to retrieve resources. Of course, a fixed IP address is required for WAN connection and some internal network resource has to be exposed for remote users, such as FTP, WWW.Please set Dialing to a Single ISP first before configuring this web page.

Dial Retry

Dial Delay Interval

Remote Activation

Link Type

It specifies the dial retry counts per triggered packet. A triggered packet is the packet whose destination is outside the local network. The default setting is no dial retry. If set to 5, for each triggered packet, the router will dial 5 times until it is connected to the ISP or remote access router.

It specifies the interval between dialup retries. By default, the interval is 0 second.

It specifies a phone number in the Remote Activation field to enable the remote activation function. If the router accepts a call from the number 12345678, it will terminate the incoming call immediately and dial to the ISP.

Because ISDN has two B channels (64Kbps/per channel), you can specify whether you would like to have single B channel, two B channels or BOD (Bandwidth on Demand). Four options are available: Link Disable, Dialup 64Kbps, Dialup 128Kbps,

Dialup BOD.

PPP Authentication It specifies the PPP authentication method for PPP/MP connections. Normally you can set it to PAP/CHAP for better compatibility.

TCP Header Compression VJ Compression - It is used for TCP/IP protocol header compression. Normally it is set to None to improve bandwidth


utilization.

Idle Timeout

High Water Mark and

High Water Time

Because our ISDN link type is “Dial On Demand”, the connection will be initiated only when needed.

BOD stands for bandwidth-on-demand for Multiple-Link

PPP (ML-PPP or MP). High Water Mark/ High Water

Time/ Low Water Mark/Low Water Time parameters are applied when you set the Link Type to Dialup BOD. The

ISDN usually uses one B channel to access the Internet or remote network when you choose the Dialup BOD link type.

The router will use the parameters here to decide on when you activate/drop the additional B channel. Note that cps

(characters-per-second) measures the total link utilization.

These parameters specify the situation in which the second channel will be activated. With the first connected channel, if its utilization exceeds the High Water Mark and such a channel is being used over the High Water Time, the additional channel will be activated. Thus, the total link speed will be 128kbps (two B channels).

Low Water Mark and Low

Water Time

These parameters specify the situation in which the second channel will be dropped. In terms of the two B channels, if their utilization is under the Low Water Mark and these two channels are being used over the High Water Time, the additional channel will be dropped. As a result, the total link speed will be 64kbps (one B channel).

Note: If you are not sure whether your ISP can support BOD and/or ML-PPP’s

features, please seek assistance from your ISP, local dealers or our website:

Over recent years, the market for wireless communications has enjoyed tremendous growth.

Wireless technology now reaches or is capable of reaching virtually every location on the surface of the earth. Hundreds of millions of people exchange information every day via wireless communication products. The Vigor G model, a.k.a. Vigor wireless router, is designed for maximum flexibility and efficiency of a small office/home. Any authorized staff can bring a built-in WLAN client PDA or notebook into a meeting room for conference without laying a clot of LAN cable or drilling holes everywhere. Wireless LAN enables high mobility so WLAN users can simultaneously access all LAN facilities just like on a wired

LAN as well as Internet access.

The Vigor wireless routers are equipped with a wireless LAN interface compliant with the standard IEEE 802.11g protocol. To boost its performance further, the Vigor Router is also loaded with advanced wireless technology Super G

TM

to lift up data rate up to 108 Mbps*.

Hence, you can finally smoothly enjoy stream music and video.


Note: *

The actual data throughput will vary according to the network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, network overhead and building materials.

In an Infrastructure Mode of wireless network, Vigor wireless router plays a role as an Access

Point (AP) connecting to lots of wireless clients or Stations (STA). All the STAs will share the same Internet connection via Vigor wireless router. The General Settings will set up the information of this wireless network, including its SSID as identification, located channel etc.

S e c u r i i t t y O v e r v i i e w

Real-time Hardware Encryption: Vigor Router is equipped with a hardware AES encryption engine so it can apply the highest protection to your data without influencing user experience.

Complete Security Standard Selection: To ensure the security and privacy of your wireless communication, we provide several prevailing standards on market.

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a legacy method to encrypt each frame transmitted via radio using either a 64-bit or 128-bit key. Usually access point will preset a set of four keys and it will communicate with each station using only one out of the four keys.

WPA(Wi-Fi Protected Access), the most dominating security mechanism in industry, is separated into two categories: WPA-personal or called WPA Pre-Share Key (WPA/PSK), and

WPA-Enterprise or called WPA/802.1x.

In WPA-Personal, a pre-defined key is used for encryption during data transmission. WPA applies Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) for data encryption while WPA2 applies AES.

The WPA-Enterprise combines not only encryption but also authentication.

Since WEP has been proved vulnerable, you may consider using WPA for the most secure connection. You should select the appropriate security mechanism according to your needs.

No matter which security suite you select, they all will enhance the over-the-air data protection and /or privacy on your wireless network. The Vigor wireless router is very flexible and can support multiple secure connections with both WEP and WPA at the same time.


Example 1

Example 2

Example 3

Separate the Wireless and the Wired LAN- WLAN Isolation enables you to isolate your wireless LAN from wired LAN for either quarantine or limit access reasons. To isolate means neither of the parties can access each other. To elaborate an example for business use, you may set up a wireless LAN for visitors only so they can connect to Internet without hassle of the confidential information leakage. For a more flexible deployment, you may add filters of

MAC addresses to isolate users’ access from wired LAN.

Manage Wireless Stations - Station List will display all the station in your wireless network and the status of their connection.

Enable Wireless LAN

Mode

Check the box to enable wireless function.

Select an appropriate wireless mode.

Mixed (11b+11g+SuperG) - The radio can support

IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and SuperG protocols simultaneously.

Mixed (11b+11g) - The radio can support both

IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g protocols simultaneously.

SuperG - The radio only supports SuperG.

11g only - The radio only supports IEEE802.11g.

11b only - The radio only supports IEEE802.11b.

SuperG Overdrive

Index(1-15)


Enhance the transmission rate up to 108Mbps between the host and the clients. Generally, the maximum transmission rate is 54Mbps without such feature. Notice that the network card in client must also support SuperG. If not, the rate would be 54Mbps even if you enable this function.

Set the wireless LAN to work at certain time interval only.

You may choose up to 4 schedules out of the 15 schedules pre-defined in Applications >> Schedule setup. The default setting of this filed is blank and the function will always work.

SSID

Channel

The default SSID is "default". We suggest you change it to a particular name. It is the identification of the wireless

LAN. SSID can be any text numbers or various special characters.

The channel of frequency of the wireless LAN. The default channel is 6. You may switch channel if the selected channel is under serious interference.

Hide SSID

Long Preamble

Check it to prevent from wireless sniffing and make it harder for unauthorized clients or STAs to join your wireless LAN. Depending on the wireless utility, the user may only see the information except SSID or just cannot see any thing about Vigor wireless router while site surveying.

This option is to define the length of the sync field in an

802.11 packet. Most modern wireless network uses short preamble with 56 bit sync filed instead of long preamble with 128 bit sync field. However, some original 11b wireless network devices only support long preamble.

Check it to use Long Preamble if needed to communicate with this kind of devices.

5 W D S

WDS means Wireless Distribution System. It is a protocol for connecting two access points

(AP) wirelessly. Usually, it can be used for the following application: y

Provide bridge traffic between two LANs through the air. y

Extend the coverage range of a WLAN.

To meet the above requirement, two WDS modes are implemented in Vigor router. One is

Bridge, the other is Repeater. Below shows the function of WDS-bridge interface:

The application for the WDS-Repeater mode is depicted as below:

The major difference between these two modes is that: while in Repeater mode, the packets received from one peer AP can be repeated to another peer AP through WDS links. Yet in

Bridge mode, packets received from a WDS link will only be forwarded to local wired or wireless hosts. In other words, only Repeater mode can do WDS-to-WDS packet forwarding.


In the following examples, hosts connected to Bridge 1 or 3 can communicate with hosts connected to Bridge 2 through WDS links. However, hosts connected to Bridge 1 CANNOT communicate with hosts connected to Bridge 3 through Bridge 2.

Click WDS from Wireless LAN menu. The following page will be shown.

The most common case is that you may want to connect to network securely, such as the remote branch office and headquarter. According to the network structure as shown in the below illustration, you may follow the steps to create a LAN-to-LAN profile. These two networks (LANs) should NOT have the same network address.

Settings in Router A in headquarter:

1. Go to VPN and Remote Access and select Remote Access Control to enable the necessary VPN service.

2. Then,

For using PPP based services, such as PPTP, L2TP, or ISDN, you have to set general settings in PPP General Setup.

For using IPSec-based service, such as IPSec or L2TP with IPSec Policy, you have to set general settings in IPSec General Setup, such as the pre-shared key that both parties have known.


3. Go to LAN-to-LAN. Click on one index number to edit a profile.

4. Set Common Settings as shown below. You should enable both of VPN connections because any one of the parties may start the VPN connection.

5. Set Dial-Out Settings as shown below to dial to connect to Router B aggressively with the selected Dial-Out method.

If an IPSec-based service is selected, you should further specify the remote peer IP

Address, IKE Authentication Method and IPSec Security Method for this Dial-Out connection.

If a PPP-based service is selected, you should further specify the remote peer IP Address,

Username, Password, PPP Authentication and VJ Compression for this Dial-Out connection.


6. Set Dial-In settings to as shown below to allow Router B dial-in to build VPN connection.

If an IPSec-based service is selected, you may further specify the remote peer IP Address,

IKE Authentication Method and IPSec Security Method for this Dial-In connection.

Otherwise, it will apply the settings defined in IPSec General Setup above.


Username, Password, and VJ Compression for this Dial-In connection.


7. At last, set the remote network IP/subnet in TCP/IP Network Settings so that Router A can direct the packets destined to the remote network to Router B via the VPN connection.

Settings in Router B in the remote office:

1. Go to Remote Access Control to enable the necessary VPN service.

2. Then, for using PPP based services, such as PPTP, L2TP, or ISDN, you have to set general settings in PPP General Setup.

For using IPSec-based service, such as IPSec or L2TP with IPSec Policy, you have to set general settings in IPSec General Setup, such as the pre-shared key that both parties have known.


3. Go to LAN-to-LAN. Click on one index number to edit a profile.

4. Set Common Settings as shown below. You should enable both of VPN connections because any one of the parties may start the VPN connection.

5. Set Dial-Out Settings as shown below to dial to connect to Router B aggressively with the selected Dial-Out method.

If an IPSec-based service is selected, you should further specify the remote peer IP

Address, IKE Authentication Method and IPSec Security Method for this Dial-Out connection.


Username, Password, PPP Authentication and VJ Compression for this Dial-Out


connection.

6. Set Dial-In settings to as shown below to allow Router A dial-in to build VPN connection.







7. At last, set the remote network IP/subnet in TCP/IP Network Settings so that Router B can direct the packets destined to the remote network to Router A via the VPN connection.

The other common case is that you, as a teleworker, may want to connect to the enterprise network securely. According to the network structure as shown in the below illustration, you may follow the steps to create a Remote User Profile and install Smart VPN Client on the remote host.

Settings in VPN Router in the enterprise office:

1. Go to Remote Access Control to enable the necessary VPN service.

2. Then, for using PPP based services, such as PPTP, L2TP, or ISDN, you have to set general settings in PPP General Setup.

For using IPSec-based service, such as IPSec or L2TP with IPSec Policy, you have to set general settings in IPSec General Setup, such as the pre-shared key that both parties have known.


3. Go to Remote Dial-In Users. Click on one index number to edit a profile.

4. Set Dial-In settings to as shown below to allow the remote user dial-in to build VPN connection.







Settings in the remote host:

1. For Win98/ME, you may use "Dial-up Networking" to create the PPTP tunnel to Vigor router.

For Win2000/XP, please use "Network and Dial-up connections" or “Smart VPN

Client”, complimentary software to help you create PPTP, L2TP, and L2TP over IPSec tunnel. You can find it in CD-ROM in the package or go to www.draytek.com download center. Install as instructed.

2. After successful installation, for the first time user, you should click on the Step 0.

Configure button. Reboot the host.

3. In Step 2. Connect to VPN Server, click Insert button to add a new entry.

If an IPSec-based service is selected as shown below,


You may further specify the method you use to get IP, the security method, and authentication method. If the Pre-Shared Key is selected, it should be consistent with the one set in VPN router.

If a PPP-based service is selected, you should further specify the remote VPN server IP address, Username, Password, and encryption method. The User Name and Password should be consistent with the one set up in the VPN router. To use default gateway on remote network means that all the packets of remote host will be directed to VPN server then forwarded to Internet. This will make the remote host seem to be working in the enterprise network.


4. Click Connect button to build connection. When the connection is successful, you will find a green light on the right down corner.

An example of default setting and the corresponding deployment are shown below. The default Vigor router private IP address/Subnet Mask is 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0. The built-in

DHCP server is enabled so it assigns every local NATed host an IP address of 192.168.1.x starting from 192.168.1.10.

You can just set the settings wrapped inside the red rectangles to fit the request of NAT usage.

To use another DHCP server in the network rather than the built-in one of Vigor Router, you have to change the settings as show below.


You can just set the settings wrapped inside the red rectangles to fit the request of NAT usage.
