Introduction

CPWBS154

Congratulations on your purchase of the Philips ADSL Wireless Base

Station, hereafter referred to as the ‘ADSL Wireless Base Station’. We are proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for connecting your local area network (LAN) to the Internet.

For those who want to surf the Internet in the most secure way, this router provides a convenient and powerful solution.

About the ADSL Wireless Base Station

The ADSL Wireless Base Station provides Internet access to multiple users by sharing a single-user account. Support is provided for both wired and wireless devices. New technology provides wireless security via Wired

Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption and MAC address filtering. It is simple to configure and can be up and running in minutes.

Features and Benefits

• Internet connection to an ADSL line via an RJ-11 ADSL port

• Local network connection via four 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports

• On-board IEEE 802.11g wireless network adapter

• DHCP for dynamic IP configuration, and DNS for domain name mapping

• Firewall with Stateful Packet Inspection, client privileges, intrusion detection, and NAT

• NAT also enables multi-user Internet access via a single user account, and virtual server functionality (providing protected access to Internet services such as web, FTP, email, and Telnet)

• VPN pass-through (IPSec-ESP Tunnel mode, L2TP, PPTP)

• User-definable application sensing tunnel supports applications requiring multiple connections

• Easy setup through a web browser on any operating system that supports

TCP/IP

• Compatible with all popular Internet applications

Applications

Many advanced networking features are provided by the ADSL Wireless

Base Station:

Wireless and Wired LAN

The ADSL Wireless Base Station provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps devices, and wireless IEEE 802.11g compatible devices, making it easy to create a network in small offices or homes.

Internet Access

This device supports Internet access through an ADSL connection. Since many DSL providers use PPPoE or PPPoA to establish communications with end users, the ADSL Wireless Base Station includes built-in clients for these protocols, eliminating the need to install these services on your computer.

ENGLISH 5

Shared IP Address

The ADSL Wireless Base Station provides Internet access for up to

253 users via a single shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple users on your network can browse the web at the same time.

Virtual Server

If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the ADSL Wireless Base Station to act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote users access various services at your site using a constant IP address.Then, depending on the requested service (or port number), the ADSL Wireless Base Station can route the request to the appropriate server (at another internal

IP address).This secures your network from direct attack by hackers, and provides more flexible management by allowing you to change internal

IP addresses without affecting outside access to your network.

DMZ Host Support

Allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the Internet.

This function is used when NAT and firewall security prevent an Internet application from functioning correctly.

Security

The ADSL Wireless Base Station supports security features that deny

Internet access to specified users, or filter all requests for specific services that the administrator does not want to serve.The ADSL Wireless Base

Station's firewall also blocks common hacker attacks, including IP Spoofing,

Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack,TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding. WEP (Wired

Equivalent Privacy), SSID, and MAC filtering provide security over the wireless network.

NAT

Network Address Translation allows multiple users to access the Internet sharing one public IP.

ENGLISH 40

Address Mapping

Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users.This also hides the internal network for increased privacy and security.

Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP into the ‘from’ field.

Virtual Server

If you configure the ADSL Wireless Base Station as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service

(TCP/UDP port number), the ADSL Wireless Base Station redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address).

For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the

Private IP/Port to 192.168.1.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.1.2 on port 80.Therefore, by just entering the IP address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them.

A list of ports is maintained at the following link: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.

ENGLISH 41

Special Applications

Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video-conferencing, and Internet telephony.

These applications may not work when Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use these pages to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.

RIP

ENGLISH 43


General RIP Parameters

• RIP mode

• Auto summary

Globally enables or disables RIP.

If Auto summary is disabled, then RIP packets will include sub-network information from all subnetworks connected to the router.

If enabled, this sub-network information will be summarized to one piece of information covering all subnetworks.

Table of current

Interface RIP parameter

• Interface The WAN interface to be configured.

• Operation Mode

Disable:

• Enable:

• Silent:

RIP disabled on this interface.

RIP enabled on this interface.

Listens for route broadcasts and updates its route table.

Version

Poison Reverse

It does not participate in sending route broadcasts.

Sets the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) version to use on this interface.

A method for preventing loops that would cause endless retransmission of data traffic.

Authentication Required • None: No authentication.

• Password: A password authentication key is included in the packet. If this does not match what is expected, the packet will be discarded.

This method provides very little security as it is possible to learn the authentication key by watching RIP packets.

Authentication Code Password Authentication key.

RIP sends routing-update messages at regular intervals and when the network topology changes. When a router receives a routing update that includes changes to an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new route. RIP routers maintain only the best route to a destination.

After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting routing updates to inform other network routers of the change.

ENGLISH 44

Routing Table


Flags Indicates the route status:

C = Direct connection on the same subnet.

S = Static route.

R = RIP (Routing Information Protocol) assigned route.

I = ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) Redirect route.

Network Address

Netmask

Gateway

Destination IP address.

The subnetwork associated with the destination.

This is a template that identifies the address bits in the destination address used for routing to specific subnets. Each bit that corresponds to a ‘1’ is part of the subnet mask number; each bit that corresponds to ‘0’ is part of the host number.

The IP address of the router at the next hop to which frames are forwarded.

Interface

Metric

The local interface through which the next hop of this route is reached.

When a router receives a routing update that contains a new or changed destination network entry, the router adds 1 to the metric value indicated in the update and enters the network in the routing table.

Firewall

The ADSL Wireless Base Station's firewall inspects packets at the application layer, maintains TCP and UDP session information including time-outs and the number of active sessions, and provides the ability to detect and prevent certain types of network attacks.

ENGLISH 45

Network attacks that deny access to a network device are called Denial-of-

Service (DoS) attacks. DoS attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to the Internet.Their goal is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network so users no longer have access to network resources.

The ADSL Wireless Base Station firewall function protects against the following DoS attacks: IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack,TCP null scan, and

TCP SYN flooding. (See page 48-50 for details.)

The firewall does not significantly affect system performance, so we advise leaving it enabled to protect your network. Select Enable and click the ‘SAVE

SETTINGS’ button to open the Firewall submenus.

Access Control

Access Control allows users to define the outgoing traffic permitted or notpermitted through the WAN interface.The default is to permit all outgoing traffic.

The following items are on the Access Control screen:


Enable Filtering Function Click Yes to turn on the filtering function.

Normal Filtering Table Displays the IP address (or an IP address range) filtering table.

To add the PC to the filtering table:

1 Click ‘Add PC’ on the Access Control screen.

ENGLISH 46

3 Click ‘OK’ and then click ‘SAVE SETTINGS’ to save your settings.

MAC Filter

The ADSL Wireless Base Station can also limit the network access based on the MAC address.The MAC Filtering Table allows the ADSL Wireless Base

Station to enter up to 32 MAC addresses that are not allowed access to the WAN port.

Click Yes to enable, or No to disable this function.

Enter the MAC address in the space provided and click ‘Save Settings’ to confirm.

ENGLISH 47

URL Blocking

The ADSL Wireless Base Station allows the user to block access to web sites by entering either a full URL address or just a keyword.This feature can be used to protect children from accessing violent or pornographic web sites.

You can define up to 30 sites here.

Schedule Rule

You may filter Internet access for local clients based on rules. Each access control rule may be activated at a scheduled time. Define the time schedule on this page, and apply the rule on the Access Control page.

Follow these steps to add a schedule rule:

1 Click ‘Add Schedule Rule’.

2 Define the appropriate settings for a schedule rule

(as shown in this example).

ENGLISH 48

3 Click ‘OK’ and then click ‘SAVE SETTINGS’ to save your settings.

Intrusion Detection

Intrusion Detection Feature

Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and Anti-DoS firewall protection

(Default: Enabled) - The Intrusion Detection Feature of the ADSL Wireless

Base Station limits access for incoming traffic at the WAN port. When the

SPI feature is turned on, all incoming packets will be blocked except for those types marked in the Stateful Packet Inspection section.

RIP Defect (Default: Disabled) - If an RIP request packet is not acknowledged to by the router, it will stay in the input queue and not be released. Accumulated packets could cause the input queue to fill, causing severe problems for all protocols. Enabling this feature prevents the packets from accumulating.

Discard Ping to WAN (Default: Disabled) - Prevent a ping on the ADSL

Wireless Base Station's WAN port from being routed to the network.

Scroll down to view more information.

ENGLISH 49

Stateful Packet Inspection

This is called a ‘stateful’ packet inspection because it examines the contents of the packet to determine the state of the communications; i.e., it ensures that the stated destination computer has previously requested the current communication.This is a way of ensuring that all communications are initiated by the recipient computer and are taking place only with sources that are known and trusted from previous interactions. In addition to being more rigorous in their inspection of packets, stateful inspection firewalls also close off ports until connection to the specific port is requested.

When particular types of traffic are checked, only the particular type of traffic initiated from the internal LAN will be allowed. For example, if the user only checks ‘FTP Service’ in the Stateful Packet Inspection section, all incoming traffic will be blocked except for FTP connections initiated from the local LAN.

ENGLISH 50

Stateful Packet Inspection allows you to select different application types that are using dynamic port numbers. If you wish to use the Stateful Packet

Inspection (SPI) to block packets, click on the Yes radio button in the

‘Enable SPI and Anti-DoS firewall protection’ field and then check the inspection type that you need, such as Packet Fragmentation,TCP

Connection, UDP Session, FTP Service, H.323 Service, or TFTP Service.

• When hackers attempt to enter your network, we can alert you by e-mail

If the mail server needs to authenticate your identification before sending out any e-mail, please fill related information in POP3 server, username and password fields. Otherwise leave the three fields blank.
