Chapter 1: Introduction

Introduction to your Router

Welcome to Billion BiPAC 5200G RC Series ADSL2+ Firewall Router. Your Billion router is an “allin-one” unit, combining an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet network switch, providing everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over your ADSL

broadband connection.

This rewall router complies with ADSL2+ standards for worldwide deployment and supports

downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. It is designed for small

ofce, home ofce and residential users, enabling even faster speed Internet connections. User can enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever before.

The product supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with ISP. The product also supports VC-based and

LLC-based multiplexing.

It is the perfect solution to connect a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection. Multi-users can have high-speed Internet access simultaneously.

This product also serves as an Internet rewall, protecting your network from being accessed by outside users. Not only provide the natural rewall function (Network Address Translation, NAT), it also provides rich rewall features to secure user’s network. All incoming data packets are monitored and ltered. Besides, it can also be congured to block internal users from accessing to the Internet.

The product provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN users’ IP addresses which are invisible to outside users on the Internet, making it much more difcult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Secondly, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. For example, to ensure that games and other Internet applications will run properly, user can open some specic ports for outside users to access internal services in

network.

Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) services, client and server, allow multiple users

to get their IP addresses automatically on boot up from the product. Simply set local machines as a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from DHCP server . Each time local machine is powered up; the router will recognize it and assign an IP address to instantly connect it to the LAN.

For advanced users, Virtual Service function allows the product to provide limited visibility to local machines with specic services for outside users. An ISP (Internet Service Providers) provided IP address can be set to the product and then specic services can be rerouted to specic computers on the local network. For instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the product and then incoming requests for HTML that are received by the product can be rerouted to the dedicated local web server, even though the server now has a different IP address. In this example, the product is on the Internet and vulnerable to attacks, but the server is protected.

Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, the product can be set to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internetvisible IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from hackers.

Features

ADSL Multi-Mode Standard

Supports downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. It also supports

rate management that allows ADSL subscribers to select an Internet access speed suiting their needs and budgets. It is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt(G.992.1); G.lite(G992.2)), G.hs (G994.1), G.dmt.bis (G.992.3), G.dmt.bisplus (G.992.5)). The Annex A and B are supported in different H/W platforms.

802.11g Wi-Fi

With built-in 802.11g access point for extending the communication media to WLAN while providing the WEP, WPA and WPA2 for securing your wireless networks.

Fast Ethernet Switch

A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports. An Ethernet straight or crossover cable can be used

directly for auto detection.

Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection

It supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation

overATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with the ISP. The product also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.

Quick Installation Wizard

It supports a WEB GUI page to install this device quickly. With this wizard, end users can enter the information easily which they get from their ISP, then surf the Internet immediately.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal

This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs from many different vendors. It makes network simple and affordable for users. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, users can now connect to Net

meeting or MSN Messenger seamlessly.

Network Address Translation (NAT)

Allows multi-users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateway (ALG) are supported such as

web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.

Domain Name System (DNS) Relay

It provides an easy way to map the domain name (a friendly name for users such as www.yahoo. com) and IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server with this router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router will be forwarded to the real DNS in the

outside network.

Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)

The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. For example, to use the service, you must rst apply for an account from a DDNS service like http://www.dyndns.org/. More than 5 DDNS servers are

supported.

Virtual Server

Users can specify some services to be visible from outside users. The router can detect incoming service requests and forward either a single port or a range of ports to the specic local computer to handle it. For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN acting as a WEB server inside and expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside web servers directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a local computer exposed to the outside

network, Internet.

Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server

In the WAN site, the DHCP client can get an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP) automatically. In the LAN site, the DHCP server can allocate a range of client IP addresses and distribute them including IP address, subnet mask as well as DNS IP address to local computers. It provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.

RIP1/2 Routing

It has the routing capability that supports RIP1/2 routing protocol.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

It is an easy way to remotely manage the router via SNMP.

Web based GUI

It supports web based GUI for conguration and management. It is user-friendly and comes with online help. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to congure and manage this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

Device can be upgraded to the latest rmware through the WEB based GUI.

Firewall

Supports simple rewall with NAT technology and provides option for blocking access from Internet, like Telnet, FTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

Provides embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. Users can get greater access speed without changing the operation concept, sharing the same ISP account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for local computer. The Automatic Reconnect

and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are provided, too.

Cabling

One of the most common causes of problem is bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that all connected devices are turned on. On the front panel of your router is a bank of LEDs. Verify that the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify if you are using the proper cables.

Make sure that all devices (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) connected to the same telephone line as your router have a line lter connected between them and the wall outlet (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualied and licensed electrician), and that all line lters are correctly installed in a right way. If line lter is not installed and connected properly, it may cause problem to your ADSL connection or may result in frequent disconnections.

Chapter 3: Basic Installation

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

Please check your PC 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.

There are ways to connect the router, either through an external repeater hub or connect directly to your PCs. However, make sure that your PCs have an Ethernet interface installed properly prior to connecting the router device. You ought to congure your PCs to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a xed 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 congure the PC to get an IP address automatically from the router using DHCP. If you encounter any problem accessing the router web interface it is advisable to uninstall your rewall program on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the IP address of the router. Users should make their own decisions on what is best to protect their network.

Internet

ATM VC

ATM settings are used to connect to your ISP. Your ISP provides VPI, VCI settings to you. In this

Device, you can setup a total of 8 VCs on different encapsulations, if you apply 8 different virtual

circuits from your ISP. You need to activate the VC for it to take effect. For PVCs management, you can use ATM QoS to setup each the priority of each PVC trafc line.

Virtual Circuit: VPI (Virtual Path Identier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identier) denes a virtual

circuit.

PVC Summary:

VPI: The valid range for the VPI is from 0 to 255. Enter the VPI assigned to you. This eld may

already be congured.

VCI: The valid range for the VCI is from 1 to 65535. Enter the VCI assigned to you. This eld may already be congured.

ATM QoS: Select the type of Quality of Service for this Virtual Circuit. The ATM QoS types include CBR (Constant Bit Rate), rtVBR (Real Time Variable Bit Rate), nrtVBR (Non Real Time Variable Bit Rate) and UBR (Unspecied Bit Rate). These types of QoS are all controlled by the parameters specied below, including PCR, SCR and MBS.

Select CBR to specify xed (always-on) bandwidth for voice or data trafc. Select UBR for applications that are non-time sensitive, such as e-mail. Select VBR for burst trafc applications and those that share bandwidth with other applications.

PCR: Divide the DSL line rate (bps) by 424 (the size of an ATM cell) to nd the Peak Cell Rate (PCR). This is the maximum rate at which the sender can send the cells.

SCR: The Sustain Cell Rate (SCR) sets the average cell rate (long-term) that can be transmitted.

MBS: Maximum Burst Size (MBS) refers to the maximum number of cells that can be sent at the

peak rate. Type the MBS, which is less than 65535.

Encapsulation

ISP: Select the encapsulation type your ISP uses from the Encapsulation list. Choices vary depending

on what you select in the Mode eld.

DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP conguration at start-up from a server.

DHCP: If set to Enable, your router can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS

servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client.

If set to disabled, the DHCP server will be disabled.

If set to Relay, your router 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 eld in this case.

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

Starting IP Address: This eld species the rst of the contiguous addresses in the IP address

pool.

IP Pool Count: This eld species the size or count of the IP address pool.

Lease Time: The current lease time of client.

DNS Relay: Use the Local computer as a DNS Server, but without any resolution, it pass the work

to another DNS Server which the DNS Relay points to. The specied Server do the resolution work and pass the result to the Local server and then the local server pass the received result to the client. Select from the drop-down menu to specify the another server which does the resolution work.

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.

Wireless

This section introduces the wireless LAN and some basic congurations. Wireless LANs can be as simple as two computers with wireless LAN cards communicating in a peer-to-peer network or as complex as a number of computers with wireless LAN cards communicating through access points which bridge network trafc to the wired LAN.

Access Point Setting

Access Point: Default setting is set to Activated. If you do not have any wireless, both 802.11g and

802.11b, device in your network, select Deactived.

Channel ID: The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g wireless devices is called a channel. Select a channel from the drop-down list box.

Transmit Power: User can customize the transmit power to either high, medium or low.

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. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service data unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to zero turns on 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.

DTIM: This value, between 1 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Trafc Indication Message

(DTIM).

802.11b/g: The default setting is 802.11b+g (Mixed mode). If you do not know or have both 11g and 11b devices in your network, then keep the default in mixed mode. From the drop-down manual, you can select 802.11g if you have only 11g card. If you have only 11b card, then select 802.11b.

Multiple SSIDs Setting

SSID Index: Default SSID index is “1”.

Broadcast SSID: Select Yes to make the SSID visible so a station can obtain the SSID through

passive scanning. Select No to hide the SSID in so a station cannot obtain the SSID through passive

scanning.

SSID: The SSID is the unique name of a wireless access point (AP) to be distinguished from another. For security propose, change the default wlan-ap to a unique ID name to the AP which is already built-in to the router’s wireless interface. It is case sensitive and must not excess 32 characters. Make sure your wireless clients have exactly the SSID as the device, in order to get connected to

your network.

Authentication Type: To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as WEP & WPA. If you require high security for transmissions, there are four alternatives to select from: 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK. WEP 128 will offer increased security over WEP 64.

You can disable or enable WPA or WEP for protecting wireless network. The default type of wireless is disabled and to allow all wireless computers to communicate with the access points without any

data encryption.

Wireless MAC Address Filter

The MAC lter screen allows you to congure the router to give exclusive access up to 8 devices (Allow Association) or exclude up to 8 devices from accessing the router (Deny Association). Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:AA:BB:00:00:02. You need to know the MAC address of the devices to congure this screen.

Active: Select Actived to enable MAC address ltering.

Action: Dene the lter action for the list of MAC addresses in the MAC address lter table.

Select Deny Association to block access to the router, MAC addresses not listed will be allowed to access the router. Select Allow Association to permit access to the router, MAC addresses not listed will be denied access to the router.

MAC Address: Enter the MAC addresses (in XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX format) of the wireless station that are allowed or denied access to the router in these address elds.

WEP

Key 1 to Key 4: Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data transmission, the

WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the same as the router. There are four keys to your selection. The input format is in HEX style, 10 and 26 HEX codes are required for 64-bit WEP and 128-bit WEP respectively.

If you choose WEP 64-bits, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").

If you choose WEP 128-bits, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").

You must congure all four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one time. The default key

is key 1.

WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK

Encryption: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) or AES (Advanced Encryption System) utilizes

a stronger encryption method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against hackers.

Pre-Shared key: The key for network authentication. The input format should be 8-63 ASKII

characters or 64 hexadecimal characters.

Advanced Setup

Firewall

Your router includes a rewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN that helps to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet rewall, 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: As set in default setting, it activates your rewall function.

Disabled: It disables the rewall function.

SPI: If you enabled SPI, all trafcs initiated from WAN would be blocked, including DMZ, Virtual

Server, and ACL WAN side.

Enabled: As set in default setting, it activates your SPI function.

Disabled: It disables the SPI function.

Press SAVE to apply your settings.

Routing

If you have another router with a LAN-to-LAN connection, you may create a static routing on the router that is the gateway to Internet.

#: Item number

Dest IP: IP address of the destination network

Mask: The destination mask address.

Gateway IP: IP address of the gateway or existing interface that this route uses.

Metric: It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be

precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.

Device: Media/channel selected to append the route.

Use: the statistics of the packets received and transmitted.

Edit: Edit the route; this icon is not shown for system default route.

Drop: Drop the route; this icon is not shown for system default route.

Add Route

To add a new route, press the Add Route button. Then ll in all the parameters needed for the route. When done, press the Save button.

Destination IP Address: This is the destination subnet IP address.

IP Subnet Mask: A subnet mask allows IP networks to be subdivided for security and performance

purposes.

Gateway IP Address: This is the gateway IP address to which packets are to be forwarded.

Metric: It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be precise,

but it must be between 1 and 15.

Announced in RIP: This parameter determines if the Prestige will include the route to the remote node in its RIP broadcasts. Set “No”, it is kept private and is not included in RIP broadcasts. Set “Yes”, the remote node will be propagated to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.

Press SAVE to apply your settings and the item you added will be listed in the Routing Table List.

NAT

The NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet. The default setting is Dynamic NAT. It provides dynamic Network Address Translation capability between LAN and multiple WAN connections, and the LAN trafc is routed to appropriate WAN connections based on the destination IP addresses and Route Table. This eliminates the need for the static NAT session conguration between multiple LAN clients and multiple WAN

connections.

Virtual Circuit: VPI (Virtual Path Identier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identier) denes a virtual circuit. There are eight groups of PVC that can be dened and used.

NAT Status: Show the NAT status, Activated or Deactivated.

Number of IPs: User can select Single or Multiple. Select Multiple to trigger IP Address Mapping.

DMZ

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 that do not use a port number which is already used by any other Virtual Server entries will rst be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms before it is passed to the DMZ host.

DMZ setting for: indicate the related LAN PC and PVC ports which allow outside network to connect

in and communicate.

DMZ:

Disabled: As set in default setting, it disables the DMZ function.

Enabled: It activates your 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.

Select the SAVE button to apply your changes.

Virtual Server

In TCP/IP and UDP 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 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 lesharing applications) and are using NAT (Network Address Translation), then you will usually need to congure your router to forward these incoming connection attempts to the PC on your network using specic ports. 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 trafc to the private IP addresses used by yourPCs. Please see the WAN conguration section of this manual for more information on NAT.The device can be congured 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 the local servers on 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.

UPnP

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with

controlling data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT

routers through UPnP NAT Traversal and on supported systems. Task handling such as port forwarding becomes easier by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced conguration of their device.

Both the user 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 congurator's login screen without having to enter the router IP address.

Auto-congured: Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled applications to automatically congure your BiPAC router so that they can communicate through the router. For example, by

using NAT traversal UPnP applications will automatically reserve a NAT forwarding port in order to

communicate with another UPnP enabled device. This eliminates the need to manually congure port forwarding for the UPnP enabled application.

Press SAVE to apply your settings.

DDNS

Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name. This is useful when hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishes to connect to you may use your domain name rather than having to use your ever changing dynamic IP address. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.
