CHAPTER 3: BASIC INSTALLATION

The router can be configured with your web browser. A web browser is included as a standard application in the following operating systems: Windows 98 / NT /2000 / XP / ME / 7 / Vista, Linux, Mac OS, etc. The product provides an easy and user-friendly interface for configuration.

PCs must have an Ethernet interface installed properly and be connected to the router either directly or through an external repeater hub, and have TCP/IP installed and configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same subnet as the router. The default IP address of the router is 192.168.1.254 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC must be in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to

192.168.1.253). The best and easiest way is to configure the PC to get an IP address automatically from the router using DHCP. If you encounter any problems accessing the router’s web interface it may also be advisable to uninstall any kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the 192.168.1.254 IP address of the router. Users should make their own decisions on how to best protect their network.

Please follow the steps below for your PC’s network environment installation. First of all, please check your PC’s network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network adapter must be

installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating system manuals.

Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through the BEC 9800VN. To configure other types of workstations, please consult the manufacturer’s documentation.

DHCPv4 Server

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server.

DHCPv4 Server: If set to Enabled, your BEC 9800VN can assign IP addresses, default gateway and DNS servers to the DHCP client.

 If set to Disabled, the DHCP server will be disabled.  If set to Relay, the BEC 9800VN acts as a surrogate DHCP server and relays DHCP requests

and responses between the remote server and the clients. Enter the IP address of the actual, remote DHCP server in the Remote DHCP Server field in this case.

 When DHCP is used, the following items need to be set.

Start IP: This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool. IP Pool Count: This field specifies the count of the IP address pool. Lease Time: The current lease time of client. Physical Ports: Select to determine if the DHCPv4 server is applicable to the specific port or ports. By

default, all ports can obtain local IP from DHCPv4 server. DNS Relay Select Automatically obtained or Manually set (if selected. Please set the exactly

information). If you set Static IP in the ISP Connection Type field, then select Manually here and set the specific DNS information.

Primary DNS Server: Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask.

Secondary DNS Server: Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask.

Fixed Host

In this field, users can map the specific IP (must in the DHCP IP pool) for some specific MAC, and this information can be listed in the following table.

IP Address: Enter the specific IP. For example: 192.168.1.110. MAC Address: Enter the responding MAC. For example: 00:0A:F7:45:6D:ED

Page 58

Device Configuration /

BEC 9800VN User Manual

When added, you can see the ones listed as showed below:

IPv6 Parameters

The IPv6 address composes of two parts, thus, the prefix and the interface ID.

Interface Address / Prefix Length: Enter a static LAN IPv6 address. If you are not sure what to do with this field, please leave it empty as if contains false information it could result in LAN devices not being able to access other IPv6 device. Router will take the same WAN’s prefix to LAN side if the field is empty.

MLD Snooping: Similar to IGMP Snooping, but applicable for IPv6.

DHCPv6 Server

There are two methods to dynamically configure IPv6 address on hosts, Stateless and Stateful. Stateless auto-configuration requires no manual configuration of hosts, minimal (if any)

configuration of routers, and no additional servers. The stateless mechanism allows a host to generate its own addresses using a combination of locally available information (MAC address) and information (prefix) advertised by routers. Routers advertise prefixes that identify the subnet(s) associated with a link, while hosts generate an "interface identifier" that uniquely identifies an interface on a subnet. An address is formed by combining the two. When using stateless configuration, you needn’t configure anything on the client.

Stateful configuration, for example using DHCPv6 (which resembles its counterpart DHCP in IPv4.) In the stateful auto configuration model, hosts obtain interface addresses and/or configuration information and parameters from a DHCPv6 server. The Server maintains a database that keeps track of which addresses have been assigned to which hosts.

DHCPv6 Server: Check whether to enable DHCPv6 server. DHCPv6 Server Type: Select Stateless or Stateful. When DHCPv6 is enabled, this parameter is

available.

 Stateless: If selected, the PCs in LAN are configured through RA mode, thus, the PCs in LAN

are configured through RA mode, to obtain the prefix message and generate an address using a combination of locally available information (MAC address) and information (prefix) advertised by routers, but they can obtain such information like DNS from DHCPv6 Server.

 Stateful: If selected, the PCs in LAN will be configured like in IPv4 mode, thus obtain addresses

Page 59

Device Configuration /

Interface Setup

BEC 9800VN User Manual

and DNS information from DHCPv6 server.

Start interface ID: enter the start interface ID. The IPv6 address composed of two parts, thus, the prefix and the interface ID. Interface is like the Host ID compared to IPv4.

End interface ID: enter the end interface ID. Leased Time (hour): the leased time, similar to leased time in DHCPv4, is a time limit assigned to

clients, when expires, the assigned ID will be recycled and reassigned. Issue Router Advertisement: Check to Enable or Disable the Issue Router Advertisement feature.

This feature is to send Router Advertisement messages periodically which would multicast the IPv6 Prefix information (similar to v4 network number 192.168.1.0) to all LAN devices if the field is enabled. We suggest enabling this field.

802.11b and if you only have 802.11n then select 802.11n. Channel: The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless devices is called a

channel. There are Regulation Domains and Channel ID in this field. The Channel ID will be different based on Regulation Domains. Select a channel from the drop-down list box.

Beacon interval: The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. Enter a value between 20 and 1000. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Router to synchronize the wireless network.

RTS/CTS Threshold: The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) for enabling RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake. Enter a value between 1500 and 2347.

Fragmentation Threshold: The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between 256 and 2346, even number only.

DTIM Interval: This value, between 1 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM).

TX Power: The transmission power of the antennas, ranging from 1-100, the higher the more powerful of the transmission performance.

IGMP Snooping: Enable or disable the IGMP Snooping function for wireless. Without IGMP snooping, multicast traffic is treated in the same manner as broadcast traffic - that is, it is forwarded to all ports. With IGMP snooping, multicast traffic of a group is only forwarded to ports that have members of that group.”

BEC 9800VN User Manual

Dual WAN

Dual WAN is specially designed to offer users Failover/Fallback or Load Balance feature. Auto Failover/Failback is to ensure an always-on internet connection. Users can set a WAN1 (main

WAN) and WAN 2 (backup WAN), and when WAN1 fails, it will switch to WAN2, and when WAN1 restores, it will switch to WAN1 again.

Select Failover to enable the failover/failback feature or Load Balance to make the router work in load balance mode.

 Failover

WAN Port Service Detection Policy

WAN1: Select “EWAN” or “SFP” for WAN1 (The main WAN). WAN2: Select“SFP” for WAN2 as backup port if you select “EWAN” as WAN1. Connectivity Decision: Set how many times of probing failure to switch to backup port. Probe Cycle: Set the time duration for the Probe Cycle to determine when the router will switch to the

backup connection (backup port) once the main connection (main port) fails. For example, when set to 30 seconds, the probe will be conducted every 30 seconds.

Note:

1) The time set is for each probe cycle, but the decision to change to the backup port is determined by Probe Cycle multiplied by connection Decision amount (e.g. From the image above it will be 30

seconds multiplied by 3 consecutive fails, the router will determine failover to WAN2 (backup port)).

2).The failback setting follow the same decision policy as the failover. For example, according to settings above in the screenshot, the connection probe will be carried out every 30 seconds, and 3 consecutive times of probe success is found, the router will determine failback to WAN1 (main WAN).

Firewall

Your router includes a firewall for helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when

using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs

on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet.

Firewall: To automatically detect and block Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, such as Ping of Death, SYN Flood, Port Scan and Land Attack.

 Enabled: It activates your firewall function.  Disabled: It disables the firewall function.

NAT

The NAT (Network Address Translation) feature transforms a private IP into a public IP, allowing multiple users to access the internet through a single IP account, sharing the single IP address. NAT break the originally envisioned model of IP end-to-end connectivity across the internet so NAT can cause problems where IPSec/ PPTP encryption is applied or some application layer protocols such as SIP phones are located behind a NAT. And NAT makes it difficult for systems behind a NAT to accept incoming communications.

In this session, there are “VPN Passthrough”, “SIP ALG”, “DMZ” and “Virtual Server” provided to solve

these nasty problems.

NAT Status: Enabled. It depends on ISP Connection Type in Internet settings. VPN Passthrough: VPN pass-through is a feature of routers which allows VPN client on a private

network to establish outbound VPNs unhindered. SIP ALG: Enable the SIP ALG when SIP phone needs ALG to pass through the NAT. Disable the SIP

ALG when SIP phone includes NAT-Traversal algorithm.

Interface: Select to set DMZ/Virtual Server for “EWAN”, “3G/4G-LTE” or “3G/4G-LTE USB”. Service Index: Associated to EWAN interface marking each EWAN service (0-7), to select which

EWAN service the DMZ and Virtual server are applied to. Click DMZ or Virtual Server to move on to set the DMZ or Virtual Server

parameters, which are represented in the following scenario.

DMZ

NOTE: This feature disables automatically if WAN connection is in BRIDGE mode.

The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port number used by any other Virtual Server entries.

DMZ for: Indicate the related WAN interface which allows outside network to connect in and communicate. Note: Here you can see the Multiple IPs Account/EWAN Service ID 0. It is the interface set in the previous NAT page.

DMZ:

 Enabled: It activates your DMZ function.  Disabled: It disables the DMZ function.

DMZ Host IP Address: Give a static IP address to the DMZ Host when Enabled radio button is checked. Be aware that this IP will be exposed to the WAN/Internet.

Virtual Server

NOTE: This feature disables automatically if WAN connection is in BRIDGE mode.

In TCP/IP networks, a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can locate them.

If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from other machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that can accept incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant messaging applications and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network Address Translation), then you will usually need to configure your router to forward these incoming connection attempts using specific ports to the PC on your network running the application. You will also need to use port forwarding if you want to host an online game server.

The reason for this is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address will be used by and point to your router, which then needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by your PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for more information on NAT.

The device can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such as Web or FTP services via the public (WAN) IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN network. Depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the device redirects the external service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network.

Virtual Server for: Indicate the related WAN interface which allows outside network to connect in and communicate.

Protocol: Choose the application protocol. Start / End Port Number: Enter a port or port range you want to forward.

(Example: Start / End: 1000 or Start: 1000, End: 2000).

Using port forwarding does have security implications, as outside users will be able to connect to PCs on your network. For this reason you are advised to use specific Virtual Server entries just for the ports your application requires, instead of using DMZ. As doing so will result in all connections from the WAN attempt to access to your public IP of the DMZ PC specified.

If you have disabled the NAT option in the WAN-ISP section, the Virtual Server function will hence be invalid. If the DHCP server option is enabled, you have to be very careful in assigning the IP addresses of the virtual servers in order to avoid conflicts. The easiest way of configuring Virtual Servers is to manually assign static IP address to each virtual server PC, with an address that does not fall into the range of IP addresses that are to be issued by the DHCP server. You can configure the virtual server IP address manually, but it must still be in the same subnet as the router.

Static DNS

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical naming system built on a distributed database for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most importantly, it translates domain names meaningful to humans into the numerical identifiers associated with networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these devices worldwide.

An often-used analogy to explain the Domain Name System is that it serves as the phone book for the Internet by translating human-friendly computer hostnames into IP addresses. For example, the domain name www.example.com can be translated into the addresses 192.0.32.10 (IPv4).

Static DNS is a concept relative to Dynamic DNS, in static DNS system, the IP mapped is static without change.

Interface Grouping

Interface grouping is a function to group interfaces, known as VLAN. A Virtual LAN, commonly known as a VLAN, is a group of hosts with the common set of requirements that communicate as if they were attached to the same broadcast domain, regardless of the physical location. A VLAN has the same attributes as a physical LAN, but it allows for end stations to be grouped together even if they are not located on the same network switch. Similarly, they may also have been split into two different groups, even if they are on the same switch.

Each group will perform as an independent network. To support this feature, you must create mapping groups with appropriate LAN and WAN interfaces using the Save button.

Interface Grouping: Select Yes to enable Interface Grouping feature. Group Index: The index number indicating the current group ranging from 0 to 15. EWAN Service: The available EWAN interface.

Port Isolation

Port isolation is to prevent LAN (Wired or Wireless) devices, e.g. PC, Notebook, to associate or communicate with each other devices. By default, all ports (LAN port and WLAN port) are sharing one group, and devices in all these ports can have access to each other.

NOTE: The maximum WLAN (Wireless SSID) is up to 4. By default, only a SSID is being activated.

The most typical one example is to isolate all port from each other shown below. Each port has its own group; under this circumstance, devices connected to each port have no access to other devices connected to other ports. This is a special example, and users can change the settings to determine how the ports are belonged to the group.

Time Schedule

The Time Schedule supports up to 16 timeslots which helps you to manage your Internet connection. In each time profile, you may schedule specific day(s) i.e. Monday through Sunday to restrict or allowing the usage of the Internet by users or applications. This Time Schedule correlates closely with router’s time, since router does not have a real time clock on board; it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server from the Internet.

Time Index: The rule index (0-15) for identifying each timeslot. Name: User-defined identification for each time period. Day of Week: Mon. to Sun. Specify the time interval for each timeslot from “Day of Week”. For

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device.

Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in addition to the

router. Windows XP and Windows ME natively support UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.

UPnP: Select this checkbox to activate UPnP. Be aware that anyone could use a UPnP application to

open the web configuration’s login screen without entering the BEC 9800VN' IP address Auto-configured: Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled applications to automatically

configure the BEC 9800VN so that they can communicate through the BEC 9800VN, for example by using NAT traversal, UPnP applications automatically reserve a NAT forwarding port in order to communicate with another UPnP enabled device; this eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the UPnP enabled application.
