3. Preparing Your Network
In this chapter, you’ll learn what to do before configuring your network.
Before configuring your router, you need set up the computers in your network for TCP/IP networking and collect relevant ISP information if necessary.
3.1 Configuring Windows for IP Networking
Each computer in your network should be configured for TCP/IP networking. There are two ways to configure your computers:
You are commended to use DHCP, then you can simply choose
to receive an IP address automatically. For detailed instructions, see Configure Windows to Receive Dynamic IP Address
.
If you don’t use DHCP, you need assign an IP address to each
computer manually. For detailed instructions, refer to your Windows Documentation.
3.2 To Configure Windows to Receive Dynamic IP Address:
3.2.1. Click Start, then choose Settings > Network and Dial-up Connections.

3.3 Collecting ISP Information
You need query the relevant information from your ISP before configuring your router, for example:
Has your ISP assigned you a static or dynamic IP address? If
you have obtained one static IP address, what is it?
Does your ISP use PPPoE? If so, what is your PPPoE user name
and password?
If you are not sure of the above questions, call your ISP to clarify them.

5.2 Virtual Servers
In some situations, you might want users on the Internet to be able to access servers on your LAN, such as an FTP Server, Telnet Server or Web Server. Such remote services are accomplished by creating Virtual Server.
Each virtual server has its own IP address and shares a single public IP address. It is defined by the Protocol type (TCP, UDP or Both) and a TCP/UDP/Both port number. Only the enabled virtual servers can be accessed by remote users over the Internet.
Note : Configuring virtual servers may cause filters to be automatically created on the Filters page.

5.10 SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol that facilities the exchange of management information between network devices. It is part of TCP/IP (Transmission Control protocol/Internet Protocol) suite and enables you to control and monitor the network in a simple way.
On the SNMP page, you can edit the basic Agent information and also configure up to 6 SNMP trap receiver’s IP Addresses. When a trap condition occurs, your router will send an SNMP trap message to any NMS (Network Management System) specified as trap receivers, for example, when power supply errors occur.
Notes : NMS (Network Management System) is an SNMP management application together with the computer it runs on. Currently the Company AP Router supports SNMPv1 (SNMP version
1) and SNMPv2 (SNMP version 2) which have a number of features in common except for some enhancements.
And moreover, you can specify different community names for authenticating access to the management information, which function as embedded passwords:
Read: Gives you READ access to all the management
information, but does not allow WRITE access.
Write: Gives you both READ and WRITE access to all the
management information.
Note : The community name definitions on your NMS must match at least one of the above two community name definitions.

5.11 Static Routing
The Static Routing is used to configure static routes to remote networks manually, where the route is predefined and is not supervised by the Routing Information Protocol (RIP). It can explicitly reduce the network traffic and speed the Internet connects for a small network.
However, it may fall into a certain disadvantage. When a static router involves more than one Hop, if the connection to the next hop goes down, the router cannot be aware of the invalid path and continues to route traffic on this hop.
On the Static Routing page, you can add up to 20 static routes by indicating:
Destination LAN IP address and Subnet Mask
Remote gateway
Hop
Note : If the network topology changes, you may have to make changes to the static routing tables for relevant static routes.
Router interface through which to forward the packets to the destination.
What do you want to do?

6. Glossary
IEEE 802.11 Standard
The IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN standards subcommittee, which is formulating a standard for the industry.
Access point
An Internet working device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks together.
Ad hoc
An ad hoc wireless LAN is a group of computers, each with a WLAN adapter, connected as an independent wireless LAN. Ad hoc wireless LAN is applicable at a departmental scale for a branch or SOHO operation.
BSSID
A specific ad hoc LAN is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). Computers in a BSS must be configured with the same BSSID.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - a method in which IP addresses are assigned by a server dynamically to clients on the network. DHCP is used for dynamic IP addressing and requires a dedicated DHCP server on the network.
DSSS
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum. This is the method the wireless adapters use to transmit data over the frequency spectrum. An alternative method is frequency hopping. Direct sequence spreads the data over one frequency range (channel) while frequency hopping jumps from one narrow frequency band to another many times per second.
ESSID
An infrastructure configuration could also support roaming capability for mobile workers. More than one BSS can be configured as an extended service set (ESS). Users within an ESS can roam freely between BSSs while served as a continuous connection to the network wireless stations and access points within an ESS must be configured with the same ESSID and the same radio channel.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a 10/100Mbps network that runs over dedicated home/office wiring. Users must be wired to the network at all times to gain access.
Gateway
A gateway is a hardware and software device that connects two dissimilar systems, such as a LAN and a mainframe. In Internet terminology, a gateway is another name for a router. Generally a gateway is used as a funnel for all traffic to the Internet.
IEEE
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
Infrastructure
An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an infrastructure configuration. Infrastructure is applicable on an enterprise scale for wireless access to a central database, or wireless application for mobile workers.
ISM Band
The FCC and their counterparts outside of the U.S. have set aside bandwidth for unlicensed use in the so-called ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band. Spectrum in the vicinity of 2.4 GHz, in particular, is being made available worldwide. This presents a truly revolutionary opportunity to place convenient high speed wireless capabilities in the hands of users around the globe.
LAN
Local Area Network. A LAN is a group of computers, each equipped with the appropriate network adapter connected by cable/air that share applications, data, and peripherals. All connections are made via cable or wireless media, but a LAN does not use telephone services. It typically spans a single building or campus.
Network
A network is a system of computers that is connected. Data, .les, and messages can be transmitted over this network. Networks may be local or wide area networks.
Protocol
A protocol is a standardized set of rules that specify how a communication is to take place, including the format, timing, sequencing and/ or error checking.
Page 69
SSID
Service Set Identifier. A network ID unique to a network. Only clients and access points that share the same SSID are able to communicate with each other. This string is case-sensitive.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol is the network management protocol of TCP/IP. In SNMP, agents-which can be hardware as well as software-monitor the activity in the various devices on the network and report to the network console workstation. Control information about each device is maintained in a structure known as a management information block.
Static IP addressing
A method of assigning IP addresses to clients on the network. In networks with static IP address, the network administrator manually assigns an IP address to each computer. Once a static IP address is assigned, a computer uses the same IP address every time it reboots and logs on to the network, unless it is manually changed.
TCP/IP
Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol. TCP/IP is the protocol suite developed by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). TCP governs how a packet is sequenced for transmission the network. The term “TCP/IP” is often used generically to refer to the entire suite of related protocols.
Transmit / Receive
The wireless throughput in bytes per second (Bps) averaged over two seconds.
WAN
Wide Area Network. A WAN consists of multiple LANs that are tied together via telephone services and / or fiber optic cabling. WANs may span a city, a state, a country, or even the world.

3. Vorbereitung Ihres Netzwerks
In diesem Kapitel erfahren Sie, was vor dem Konfigurieren Ihres Netzwerks zu tun ist.
Bevor Sie Ihren Router konfigurieren, müssen Sie die Computer in Ihrem Netzwerk für ein TCP/IP-Netzwerk einrichten und ggf. die relevanten ISP-Informationen einholen.
3.1 Konfigurieren von Windows für IP-Netzwerke
Jeder Computer in Ihrem Netzwerk sollte für die TCP/IP-Netzwerkanbindung konfiguriert werden. Es gibt zwei Wege, Ihre Computer zu konfigurieren:
Es wird empfohlen, DHCP zu verwenden, da hier einfach
gewählt werden kann, eine IP-Adresse automatisch zu erhalten. Zu detaillierten Anweisungen siehe Konfigurieren von Windows,
um eine dynamische IP-Adresse zu erhalten
Wenn Sie DHCP nicht verwenden, müssen Sie jedem Computer
manuell eine IP-Adresse zuweisen. Zu detaillierten Anweisungen beachten Sie bitte Ihre Windows-Dokumentation.
3.2 Konfigurieren von Windows, um eine dynamische IP-Adresse zu erhalten:
3.2.1. Klicken Sie auf Start, wählen Sie dann Einstellungen > Netzwerk und DFÜ-Verbindung.

3.3 Beschaffen von ISP-Informationen
Sie müssen die relevanten Informationen Ihres ISP erfragen, bevor Sie Ihren Router konfigurieren, zum Beispiel:
Hat Ihr ISP Ihnen eine statische oder dynamische IP-Adresse
zugewiesen? Wenn Sie eine statische IP-Adresse erhalten haben, wie lautet sie?
Verwendet Ihr ISP PPPoE? Wenn ja, was ist Ihr
PPPoE-Benutzername und -Passwort?
Wenn Sie nicht hierüber nicht sicher sind, wenden Sie sich an Ihren ISP.

4.4. Wireless
Mit der Einstellung 'Wireless' können Sie Ihren Router für den drahtlosen Zugriff konfigurieren. Die Wireless-Seite besteht aus drei Teilen:
'Radio Settings': Ermöglicht Ihnen, Ihr Gateway für Wireless
Access zu konfigurieren, einschließlich Wireless Enable/Disable, Mode, ESSID, Beacon Interval, RTS Threshold, Preamble Type, Distribution System, etc.
'Security Setting': Ermöglicht Ihnen, die
Sicherheitseinstellungen Ihres Gateway zu konfigurieren.
'Status': Ermöglicht Ihnen, die AP-Funk-Statistiken Ihres
Gateways und Wireless-Geräte, die der AP (Access Point) erkannt hat, anzuzeigen.
Sie können auf der Wireless-Seite zwischen diesen drei Teilen einfach hin und her schalten.
Auf der Seite 'Radio Settings' wurde das Wireless Distribution System gemäß IEEE 802.11-Standard auf dem Unternehmens-AP-Router verfügbar gemacht. Daher ist es möglich, Access Points drahtlos unter Verwendung von bis zu 8 MAC-Adressen von PC-Karten anzuschließen, so dass Sie eine verkabelte Infrastruktur auf Bereiche erweitern können, in denen keine Kabel zur Verfügung stehen. So können die Benutzer mobil arbeiten oder an die verfügbaren Netzwerkressourcen angeschlossen bleiben.
