Chapter 1: Introduction

Introduction to your Router

Welcome to the VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router. The router is an “all-in-one” VoIP ADSL router, combining an ADSL modem, ADSL router, Ethernet network switch and 1 port for Voice over IP functionalities, providing everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over your ADSL broadband connection. With features such as an ADSL Quick-Start wizard and DHCP Server, you can be online in no time at all and with a minimum of fuss and configuration, catering for first-time users to the guru requiring advanced features and control over their Internet connection and network.

Features

Voice over IP compliance with SIP standard

The router supports cost-effective, toll-quality voice calls over the Internet. It complies with the most popular industrial standard, SIP protocol, to ensure the interoperability with SIP devices and major VoIP Gateways. The VoIP ADSL router supports call waiting, silence suppression, voice activity detection (VAD), comfort noise generation (CNG), line echo cancellation, caller ID (Bell 202, V3) and so on.

Lifeline Support

The router integrates RJ-11 FXO port for inbound and outbound calls transmitted through PSTN. Users can receive phone calls from PSTN while enjoying VoIP call service at the same time. In addition, the device automatically fallbacks to lifeline POTS to enable making normal phone calls when there is power outage, or when the Internet connection is down.

Express Internet Access

The router complies with ADSL worldwide standards. It supports downstream rate up to 12/24

Mbps with ADSL2/2+, 8Mbps with ADSL. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also

broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever. It is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413,

Issue 2; G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.lite (ITU G.992.2); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); G.dmt.bisplus (ITU G.992.5)).

802.11g Wireless AP with WPA Support

With integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and easy access among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection (ADSL) with single device simplicity, and as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 54 Mbps 802.11g data rate, it also interoperates backward with existing 802.11b equipment. The Wireless Protected Access (WPA) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) supported features enhance the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN.

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

Supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP 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 the ISP. The product also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.

VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router

Quick Installation Wizard

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.

SOHO Firewall Security with DoS and SPI

Along with the built-in NAT natural firewall feature, the router also provides advanced hacker pattern-filtering protection. It can automatically detect and block Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. The router is built with Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) to determine if a data packet is allowed through the firewall to the private LAN.

Domain Name System (DNS) relay

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 first apply for an account from a DDNS service like http://www.dyndns.org/. More than 5 DDNS servers are supported.

Quality of Service (QoS)

QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or management information move through the router ay lightning speed, even under heavy load. The QoS features are configurable by source IP address, destination IP address, protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router, to ensure P2P users don’t saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

Virtual Server (“port forwarding”)

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 specific 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.

Rich Packet Filtering

Not only filters the packet based on IP address, but also based on Port numbers. It will filter packets from and to the Internet, and also provides a higher level of security control.

Chapter 1: Introduction

Page 6

VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router

Dynamic Host Configuration 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.

Static and RIP1/2 Routing

Supports an easy static routing table or RIP1/2 routing protocol to support routing capability.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

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

Web based GUI

Supports web based GUI for configuration and management. It is user-friendly and comes with online help. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and manage this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

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

Rich management interfaces

Supports flexible management interfaces with local console port, LAN port, and WAN port. Users can use terminal applications through the console port to configure and manage the device, or Telnet, WEB GUI, and SNMP through LAN or WAN ports to configure and manage the device.

Cabling

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

Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your router (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) have a line filter connected between them and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the right way around. Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can cause problems with your ADSL connection, including causing frequent disconnections.

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: Linux, Mac OS, Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me, etc. The product provides a very 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

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

WPA Pre-Shared Key

WPA Algorithms: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) utilizes a stronger encryption method

and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against hackers.

WPA Shared Key: The key for network authentication. The input format is in character style and key size should be in the range between 8 and 63 characters.

Group Key Renewal: The period of renewal time for changing the security key automatically between wireless client and Access Point (AP). Default value is 600 seconds.

Idle Timeout: The default idle timeout is 3600 seconds. A Timeout value base on the case of no data traffic is send or received. If Router detects no traffic in the wireless, it will start timing the clock and drop the session as it reaches to the defined timeout value. New session will be reestablished after the old session.

Chapter 4: Configuration

Page 37

VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router

WEP

WEP Authentication: There are three options to choose, Open System, Shared Key and Both.

The default is set to Open System which does not request a shared key between the AP sender and the AP client, only supplying a correct SSID and an encryption key if there is any. With Share Key authentication, the AP client is granted only if it provided correct challenge response to the AP.

WEP Encryption: To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as WEP. If you require high security for transmissions, there are two alternatives to select from: WEP 64 and WEP 128. WEP 128 will offer increased security over WEP 64.

Passphrase: This is used to generate WEP keys automatically based upon the input string and a pre-defined algorithm in WEP64 or WEP128. You can input the same string in both the AP and Client card settings to generate the same WEP keys. Please note that you do not have to enter

Key (0-3) as below when the Passphrase is enabled.

Default Used WEP Key: Select the encryption key ID; please refer to Key (0-3) below.

Key (0-3): 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 for your selection. The input format is in HEX style, 5 and 13 HEX codes are required for WEP64 and WEP128 respectively, the separator is “-“. For example, using WEP64, 11-22-33-44-55 is a valid key, whilst 1122334455 is invalid.

Port Setting

This section allows you to configure the settings for the router’s Ethernet ports to solve some of the compatibility problems that may be encountered while connecting to the Internet, as well allowing users to tweak the performance of their network.

Port # Connection Type: Five options to choose from: Auto, 10M half-duplex, 10M full-duplex, 100M half-duplex or 100M full-duplex. Sometimes, there are Ethernet compatibility problems with legacy Ethernet devices, and you can configure different types to solve compatibility issues. The default is Auto, which users should keep unless there are specific problems with PCs not being able to access your LAN.

IPv4 TOS priority Control (Advanced users): TOS, Type of Services, is the 2nd octet of an IP packet. Bits 6-7 of this octet are reserved and bit 0-5 are used to specify the priority of the packet.

This feature uses bits 0-5 to classify the packet’s priority. If the packet is high priority, it will flow first and will not be constrained by the Rate Limit. Therefore, when this feature is enabled, the router’s Ethernet switch will check the 2nd octet of each IP packet. If the value in the TOS field matches the checked values in the table (0 to 63), this packet will be treated as high priority.

DHCP Server

You can disable or enable the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or enable the router’s DHCP relay functions. The DHCP protocol allows your router to dynamically assign IP addresses to PCs on your network if they are configured to obtain IP addresses automatically.

To disable the router’s DHCP Server, check Disabled and click Next, then click Apply. When the DHCP Server is disabled you will need to manually assign a fixed IP address to each PCs on your network, and set the default gateway for each PCs to the IP address of the router (by default this is

192.168.1.254).

To configure the router’s DHCP Server, check DHCP Server and click Next. You can then configure parameters of the DHCP Server including the IP pool (starting IP address and ending IP address to be allocated to PCs on your network), lease time for each assigned IP address (the period of time the IP address assigned will be valid), DNS IP address and the gateway IP address. These details are sent to the DHCP client (i.e. your PC) when it requests an IP address from the DHCP server. Click Apply to enable this function. If you check “Use Router as a DNS Server”, the ADSL Router will perform the domain name lookup, find the IP address from the outside network automatically and forward it back to the requesting PC in the LAN (your Local Area Network).

If you check DHCP Relay Agent and click Next, then you will have to enter the IP address of the DHCP server which will assign an IP address back to the DHCP client in the LAN. Use this function only if advised to do so by your network administrator or ISP.

Click Apply to enable this function.

DNS

A Domain Name System (DNS) contains a mapping table for domain name and IP addresses. On the Internet, every host has a unique and user-friendly name (domain name) such as www.helloworld.com and an IP address. An IP address is a 32-bit number in the form of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, for example 192.168.1.254. You can think of an IP address as a telephone number for devices on the Internet, and the DNS will allow you to find the telephone number for any particular domain name. As an IP Address is hard to remember, the DNS converts the friendly name into its equivalent IP Address.

You can obtain a Domain Name System (DNS) IP address automatically if your ISP has provided it when you logon, check the Enable box. Usually when you choose PPPoE or PPPoA as your WAN

- ISP protocol, the ISP will provide the DNS IP address automatically. You may leave the configuration field blank.

Alternatively, your ISP may provide you with an IP address of their DNS. If this is the case, you must enter the DNS IP address manually.

If you choose one of the other three protocols ─ RFC1483 Routed/Bridged and IPoA check with your ISP, it may provide you with an IP address for their DNS server. You must enter the DNS IP address if you set the DNS of your PC to the LAN IP address of this router.

Choose your local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router will retrieve the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified. If you prefer to specify an SNTP server other than those in the list, simply enter its IP address as shown above. Your ISP may provide an SNTP server for you to use.

Daylight Saving is also known as Summer Time Period. Many places in the world adapt it during summer time to move one hour of daylight from morning to the evening in local standard time. Check Automatic box to auto set your local time.

Resync Period (in minutes) is the periodic interval the router will wait before it re-synchronizes the router’s time with that of the specified SNTP server. In order to avoid unnecessarily increasing the load on your specified SNTP server you should keep the poll interval as high as possible – at the absolute minimum every few hours or even days.

Warning

Firmware Upgrade

Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified, and your router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes.

Clicking on Browse will allow you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded to your PC. Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the firmware in your router.

DO NOT power down the router or interrupt the firmware upgrading while it is still in process. Improper operation could damage the router.

Backup / Restore

Chapter 4: Configuration

Page 56

VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router

These functions allow you to save and backup your router’s current settings to a file on your PC, or to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes. It is advisable to backup your router’s settings before making any significant changes to your router’s configuration.

Press Backup to select where on your local PC to save the settings file. You may also change the name of the file when saving if you wish to keep multiple backups.

Press Browse to select a file from your PC to restore. You should only restore settings files that have been generated by the Backup function, and that were created when using the current

version of the router’s firmware. Settings files saved to your PC should not be manually edited in any way.

After selecting the settings file you wish to use, pressing Restore will load those settings into the router.

User Management

In order to prevent unauthorized access to your router’s configuration interface, it requires all users to login with a password. You can set up multiple user accounts, each with their own password.

You are able to Edit existing users and Create new users who are able to access the device’s configuration interface. Once you have clicked on Edit, you are shown the following options:

You can change the user’s password, whether their account is active and Valid, as well as add a comment to each user account. These options are the same when creating a user account, with the exception that once created you cannot change the username. You cannot delete the default admin account, however you can delete any other created accounts by clicking Delete when editing the user.

You are strongly advised to change the password on the default “admin” account when you receive your router, and any time you reset your configuration to Factory Defaults.

Firewall and Access Control

Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation. Please see the WAN configuration section for more details on NAT) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, as all PCs on your LAN will use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet.

Firewall: Prevents access from outside your network. The router provides three levels of security support:

NAT natural firewall: This masks LAN users’ IP addresses which are invisible to outside users on the Internet, making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. This natural firewall is on when NAT function is enabled.

When using Virtual Servers your PCs will be exposed to the degree specified in your Virtual Server settings provided the ports specified are opened in your firewall packet filter settings.

Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules to prevent unauthorized computers or applications accessing your local network from the Internet.

Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent and log malicious attacks.

Access Control: Prevents access from PCs on your local network:

Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Outbound direction of Packet Filter rules to prevent

unauthorized computers or applications accessing the Internet.

URL Filter: To block PCs on your local network from unwanted websites.

You can find six items under the Firewall section: General Settings, Packet Filter, Intrusion Detection,

URL Filter and Firewall Log.

General Settings

You can choose not to enable Firewall, to add all filter rules by yourself, or enable the Firewall using preset filter rules and modify the port filter rules as required. The Packet Filter is used to filter packets based-on Applications (Port) or IP addresses.

There are four options when you enable the Firewall, they are:

 All blocked/User-defined: no pre-defined port or address filter rules by default, meaning that

all inbound (Internet to LAN) and outbound (LAN to Internet) packets will be blocked. Users have to add their own filter rules for further access to the Internet.

 High/Medium/Low security level: the predefined port filter rules for High, Medium and Low

security are displayed in Port Filters of Packet Filter.

Select either High, Medium or Low security level to enable the Firewall. The only difference between these three security levels is the preset port filter rules in the Packet Filter. Firewall functionality is the same for all levels; it is only the list of preset port filters that changes between each setting. For more detailed on level of preset port filter information, refer to Table 1: Predefined Port Filter.

If you choose of the preset security levels and then add custom filters, you may temporarily disable the firewall and recover your custom filter settings by re-selecting the same security level.

The “Block WAN Request” is a stand-alone function and not relate to whether security enable or disable. Mostly it is for preventing any scan tools from WAN site by hacker.

Any remote user who is attempting to perform this action may result in blocking all the accesses to configure and manage of the device from the Internet.

Intrusion Detection

VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router

The router’s Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is used to detect hacker attacks and intrusion attempts from the Internet. If the IDS function of the firewall is enabled, inbound packets are filtered and blocked depending on whether they are detected as possible hacker attacks, intrusion attempts or other connections that the router determines to be suspicious.

Blacklist: If the router detects a possible attack, the source IP or destination IP address will be added to the Blacklist. Any further attempts using this IP address will be blocked for the time period specified as the Block Duration. The default setting for this function is false (disabled). Some attack types are denied immediately without using the Blacklist function, such as Land attack and Echo/CharGen scan.

Intrusion Detection: If enabled, IDS will block Smurf attack attempts. Default is false.

Block Duration:

 Victim Protection Block Duration: This is the duration for blocking Smurf attacks.

Default value is 600 seconds.

 Scan Attack Block Duration: This is the duration for blocking hosts that attempt a

possible Scan attack. Scan attack types include X’mas scan, IMAP SYN/FIN scan and similar attempts. Default value is 86400 seconds.

 DoS Attack Block Duration: This is the duration for blocking hosts that attempt a

possible Denial of Service (DoS) attack. Possible DoS attacks this attempts to block include Ascend Kill and WinNuke. Default value is 1800 seconds.

Max TCP Open Handshaking Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether a SYN Flood attempt is occurring or not. Default value is 100 TCP SYN per seconds.

Max PING Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether an ICMP Echo Storm is occurring or not. Default value is 15 ICMP Echo Requests (PING) per second.

URL Filter

URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.abcde.com or

http://www.example.com) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing

particular websites by their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet your requirements.

Enable/Disable: To enable or disable URL Filter feature.

Block Mode: A list of the modes that you can choose to check the URL filter rules. The default is set to Disabled.

 Disabled: No action will be performed by the Block Mode.

 Always On: Action is enabled. URL filter rules will be monitoring and checking at all hours

of the day.

 TimeSlot1 ~ TimeSlot16: It is self-defined time period. You may specify the time period to check the URL filter rules, i.e. during working hours. For setup and detail, refer to Time

Schedule section.

Keywords Filtering: Allows blocking by specific keywords within a particular URL rather than

having to specify a complete URL (e.g. to block any image called “advertisement.gif”). When enabled, your specified keywords list will be checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to determine if the connection attempt should be blocked. Please note that the URL filter blocks web browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only.

For example, if the URL is http://www.abc.com/abcde.html, it will be dropped as the keyword

Chapter 4: Configuration

Page 71

“abcde” occurs in the URL.

Domains Filtering: This function checks the domain name only, not the IP address, in URLs

accessed against your list of domains to block or allow. If it is matched, the URL request will be sent (Trusted) or dropped (Forbidden). For this function to be activated, both check-boxes must be

checked. The checking procedure is:

1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection attempt is sent to the remote web server.

2. If not, check if it is listed in the forbidden list, and if present then the connection attempt is dropped.

3. If the packet does not match either of the above two items, it is sent to the remote web server.

4. Please be note that the domain only should be specified, not the full URL. For example to block traffic to www.sex.com, enter “sex” or “sex.com” instead of “www.sex.com”. In the example below, the URL request for www.abc.com will be sent to the remote web server because it is listed in the trusted list, whilst the URL request for www.sex or

www.sex.com will be dropped, because sex.com is in the forbidden list.

Restrict URL Features: This function enhances the restriction to your URL rules.

PSTN Dial Plan Examples:

1) Dial with Prefix

If you dial 01223 707070, number 01223707070 will be dialed out via FXO to make a regular phone call.

2) Dial without Prefix

If you dial 9102, the number 102 will be dialed out via FXO port to make a regular phone call.

3) Dial at Timeout

If you only dial 01223 7070 and no more numbers, after the timeout activates, 012237070 will be dialed to make a regular call via FXO port.

Even though 0707 (only 4 digits) does not match with number of digits 6 defined in the filed, 7070 is still a valid phone number since it has not exceed 6 digits.

*90<phone-number>

Set the number for Speed dial code ‘x’, where ‘x’ is a number between 2 and 9.

Note: Where <x> is a number between 2 and 9, and <number> is the number to dial. The code needed to dial a speeddial from a phone connected to a VoIP Router is:

<x>#, where <x> is a number between 2 and 9.

The settings will infect to your setting in Speed Dial on WEB GUI.

Set the number for performing Blind Call Transfer, where <phone-number> is the number that you wish to transfer the call to. It’s for SIP service only.

Note: In Blind Call Transfer, you have a call in progress (incoming or outgoing) and decide you wish to transfer the call to another phone. To transfer the call, perform the following steps:

1. Hook-flash to get a dial tone.

2. Dial *90<phone-number> (e.g. *907401), there will be a confirmation tone then hang up. The other end will hear ring back and the called thirdparty phone will ring. When the third-party phone is picked up the two calls will be connected.

If the third-party phone does not answer then the caller being transferred can hang up to cancel the connect attempt.

Mission-critical application

The mission-critical application must be sent out smoothly without any dropping. Set priority as high level for preventing any other applications to saturate the bandwidth.

Voice application

Voice is latency-sensitive application. Most VoIP devices are use SIP protocol and the port number will be assigned by SIP module automatically. Better to use fixed IP address for catching VoIP packets as high priority.

Above settings will help to improve quality of your VoIP service when traffic is full loading.

Restricted Application

Some of companies will setup FTP server for customer downloading or home user sharing their files by using FTP.

With above settings that help to limit utilization of upstream of FTP. Time schedule also help you to only limit utilization at daytime.

Virtual Server (“Port Forwarding”)

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 preassigned 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

Chapter 4: Configuration

Page 98

VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router

Add Virtual Server

Because NAT can act as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from being accessed by outside users when using NAT, as all incoming connection attempts will point to your router unless you specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network.

When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”. You can set up a local server with a specific port number for the service to use, e.g. web/HTTP (port 80), FTP (port 21), Telnet (port 23), SMTP (port 25), or POP3 (port 110), When an incoming access request to the router for a specified port is received, it will be forwarded to the corresponding internal server.

Time Schedule: A self-defined time period to enable your virtual server. You may specify a time schedule or Always on for the usage of this Virtual Server Entry. For setup and detail, refer to Time

Schedule section

Application: Users-define description to identify this entry or click to select existing

predefined rules.

: 20 predefined rules are available. Click the Radio button to select the rule; Application,

Protocol and External/Redirect Ports will be filled after the selection.

Protocol: It is the supported protocol for the virtual server. In addition to specifying the port number to be used, you will also need to specify the protocol used. The protocol used is determined by the particular application. Most applications will use TCP or UDP.

External Port: The Port number on the Remote/WAN side used when accessing the virtual server.

Redirect Port: The Port number used by the Local server in the LAN network.

Internal IP Address: The private IP in the LAN network, which will be providing the virtual server

application. List all existing PCs connecting to the network. You may assign a PC with IP address and MAC from this list.

Example:

If you like to remote accessing your Router through the Web/HTTP at all time, you would need to enable port number 80 (Web/HTTP) and map to Router’s IP Address. Then all incoming HTTP requests from you (Remote side) will be forwarded to the Router with IP address of 192.168.1.254. Since port number 80 has already been predefined, next to the Application click Helper. A list of predefined rules window will pop and select HTTP_Sever.

Delete: Click it to delete this virtual server application.

Attention

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.

Edit DMZ Host

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.

Cautious: This Local computer exposing to the Internet may face varies of security risks.

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