3.1.1 WAN Setup
This device is equipped with three WAN Interfaces to support different WAN types of connections.
You can configure one by one to get proper internet connection setup.
Ethernet WAN: The product has two RJ45 Ethernet WAN ports. Please plug in RJ45 cable from
your external DSL modem and follow UI setting to setup.
USB 3G/4G WAN: The product has one USB port for 3G/4G access, please plug in your USB
3G/4G modem dongle and follow UI setting to setup.
Page 39
DG-WU2005V User Manual
39
3.1.1.1 Physical Interface
Click on the “Edit” button for each WAN interface and you can get the detail physical
interface settings and then configure the settings as well.
By default, the WAN-1 interface is forced to “Always-on” mode, and operate as the primary
internet connection; the interface WAN-2 / WAN-3 are disabled.
1. Physical Interface: Select the WAN interface from the available list. For this device,
there are “Ethernet 1”, “Ethernet 2” and “3G/4G” items. If you would like the
Ethernet WAN1 port to operate as the primary internet connection, please choose
“Ethernet 1”.
2. Operation Mode: There are three options for this item.
Always on: Set this WAN interface to be active all the time. It means two or more
Internet connections will be established simultaneously, and outgoing data will be
transferred through these WAN connections based on load balance policies. This mode
is especially suitable for high bandwidth requirement, such as video stream transmission.
Failover: Set this WAN interface to be a backup WAN connection. This WAN interface
won‟t be active until primary WAN connection is failed. If you specified a certain WAN
interface as a “Failover” WAN, you have to further identify which WAN interface is to
Page 40
DG-WU2005V User Manual
40
be failover and fallback.
For the example above, if WAN-1 connection is broken, this gateway will try to failover
the Internet connection to this WAN interface automatically. When WAN-1 connection
becomes available again, the Internet connection will switch back to WAN-1
automatically.
Besides, for some mission-critical applications, this gateway supports “Seamless failover”3 to shorten the switch time between WAN interface failover and failback.
That is, if an interface serves as a “Seamless Failover” WAN, the WAN connection will
be activated after the system has been booted up normally, even without data flow in it.
When the primary connection is broken, fast switching data flow to the WAN interface
is the major concern for “Seamless Failover”. Disable: Deactivate this WAN interface.
3. Line Speed: You can specify the downstream / upstream speed (Mbps) for the
corresponding WAN connection. Such information will be referred in QoS and load
balance function to manage the traffic load for each WAN connection.
4. VLAN Tagging: If your ISP requires a VLAN tag which has been inserted into the
WAN packets, you can enable this setting, and enter the specified tag value.
Afterwards, click on “Save” to store your settings or click “Undo” to give up the changes.
3.1.1.2 Internet Setup
There are three physical WAN interfaces that you can configure one by one to get proper
internet connection setup. They include the Ethernet WANs - the DSL ISP (Dynamic IP,
Static IP, PPPoE, PPTP and L2TP connection) and the Wireless WAN - the remote wireless

3.1.2.2 VLAN
This section provides a brief description of VLANs and explains how to create and modify
virtual LANs which are more commonly known as VLANs. A VLAN is a logical network
under a certain switch or router device to group lots of client hosts with a specific VLAN ID.
This device supports both Port-based VLAN and Tag-based VLAN. In Port-based VLAN, all
client hosts belong to the same group by transferring data via some physical ports that are
tagged with same VLAN ID in the device. The ports of a VLAN form an independent traffic
domain in which the traffic generated by the nodes remain within the VLAN. However, in
Tag-based VLAN, all packets with the same VLAN ID will be treated as the same group of
and own same access property and QoS property. It is especially useful when individuals of a
VLAN group are present at different locations.
The VLAN function allows you to divide local network into different “virtual LANs”. In
some cases, ISP may need router to support “VLAN tag” for certain kinds of services (e.g.
IPTV) to work properly. In some cases, SMB departments are separated and located at any
floor of building. All client hosts in same department should own common access property
and QoS property. You can select either one operation mode, port-based VLAN or tag-based
VLAN, and then configure according to your network configuration.
Page 56
DG-WU2005V User Manual
56
3.1.2.2.1 VLAN Scenarios
There are some common VLAN scenarios as follows:
Port-Based VLAN Tagging for Differentiated Services
Port-based VLAN function can group Ethernet ports, Port-1 ~ Port-5, together for
differentiated services like Internet surfing, multimedia enjoyment, VoIP talking and so on.
Two operation modes, NAT and Bridge, can be applied to each VLAN group. One DHCP
server is allocated for a NAT VLAN group to let group host member get its IP address. Thus,
such a host can surf Internet via the NAT mechanism of business access gateway. But at
bridge mode, Intranet packet flow was delivered out WAN trunk port with VLAN tag to
upper link for different services.
Page 57
DG-WU2005V User Manual
57
A port-based VLAN is a group of ports on an Ethernet or Virtual APs of Wired or Wireless
Gateway that form a logical group segment. Following is a descriptive example, and there is
difference at interfaces for different models. In SMB or a company, administrator schemes out 4
segments, Lobby, Lab & Servers, Office and VoIP & IPTV. In a Wireless Gateway (there is no
Wi-Fi interface for some models), administrator can configure Lobby segment with VLAN ID 4.
The VLAN group includes Port-4 and VAP-8 (SSID: Guest) with NAT mode and DHCP-3 server
equipped. He also configures Lab & Servers segment with VLAN ID 3. The VLAN group
includes Port-3 with NAT mode and DHCP-2 server equipped. However, he configures Office
segment with VLAN ID 2. The VLAN group includes Port-2 and VAP-1 (SSID: Staff) with NAT
mode and DHCP-1 server equipped. At last, administrator also configures VoIP & IPTV segment
with VLAN ID 11. The VLAN group includes Port-1 with bridge mode to WAN interface as
shown at following diagram.
Page 58
DG-WU2005V User Manual
58
Tag-based VLAN Tagging for Location-free Departments
Tag-based VLAN function can group Ethernet ports, Port-1 ~ Port-5 , together with different
VLAN tags for deploying department subnets in Intranet. All packet flows can carry with different
VLAN tags even at the same physical port for Intranet. These flows can be directed to different
destination because they have differentiated tags. The approach is very useful to group some hosts
in different geographic location to be the same department.
Tag-based VLAN is also called a VLAN Trunk. The VLAN Trunk collects all packet flows
with different VLAN IDs from Router device and delivers them in the Intranet. VLAN
membership in a tagged VLAN is determined by VLAN ID information within the packet
frames that are received on a port. Administrator can further use a VLAN switch to separate
the VLAN trunk to different groups based on VLAN ID. Following is an example. In SMB or
a company, administrator schemes out 3 segments, Lobby & Restaurant, Lab & Meeting
Rooms and Office. In a Security VPN Gateway, administrator can configure Lobby &
Restaurant segment with VLAN ID 12. The VLAN group is equipped with DHCP-3 server to
construct a 192.168.12.x subnet. He also configures Lab & Meeting Rooms segment with
VLAN ID 11. The VLAN group is equipped with DHCP-2 server to construct a 192.168.11.x
subnet for Intranet only. That is, any client host in VLAN 11 group can‟t access the Internet.
However, he configures Office segment with VLAN ID 10. The VLAN group is equipped
with DHCP-1 server to construct a 192.168.10.x subnet. In this example, VLAN 10 and 12
groups can access the Internet as shown in the following diagram.
Page 59
DG-WU2005V User Manual
59
VLAN Group Access Control
Administrator can specify the Internet access right for all VLAN groups. He also can
configure which VLAN groups can communicate with each other.
VLAN Group Internet Access
Administrator can specify members of one VLAN group to be able to access Internet or not.
Following is an example that VLAN groups of VID is 1 and 4 can access Internet but the one
with VID is 3 can‟t. That is, visitors in Lobby and staff in office can access Internet. But ones
in Lab can‟t because of security issue. Servers in Lab serve only for trusted staffs or are
accessed in secure tunnels.
Page 60
DG-WU2005V User Manual
60
Inter VLAN Group Routing
In Port-based tagging, administrator can specify member hosts of one VLAN group to be able
to communicate with the ones of another VLAN group or not. This is a communication pair,
and one VLAN group can join many communication pairs. But communication pair has not
the transitive property. That is, A can communicate with B, and B can communicate with C,
that does not mean A can communicate with C. An example is shown in the following
diagram. VLAN groups of VID is 1 and 3 can access each other but the ones between VID 3
and VID 4 and between VID 1 and VID 4 cannot.

3.1.2.2.2 Port-Based VLAN
A port-based VLAN is a group of ports on an Ethernet switch or router that forms a logical
group segment. There are five LAN ports in this device, so you can have various VLAN
configurations to organize the available LAN ports if required.
At first, you must select the “Port-based” for your VLAN configuration type if you want to.
Based on your selection of VLAN Type, you can do corresponding configuration.
Besides, the device provides a DMZ port for various servers deployment in the Intranet. For
its VLAN configuration, you must specify which DHCP server needs to be used for the DMZ
port by clicking on the “Edit” button. Please be noted that the virtual server, virtual computer
and DMZ host configuration in Basic Network >> NAT/Bridging needs to be same subnet
with the specific DHCP server for DMZ Port.
Now, you can setup the VLAN configuration for all Ethernet LAN ports in the device. By
default, all the 5 LAN ports belong to one VLAN. This VLAN is a NAT type network, and
the IP address of all local devices is allocated by DHCP-1 server. If you want to divide them
Page 62
DG-WU2005V User Manual
62
into different VLANs, click on the “Edit” button related to each port.
1. NAT/Bridge: Select “NAT” or “Bridge” to identify if the packets are directly bridged to
the WAN port or processed by NAT mechanism.
2. VLAN ID: Specify a VLAN identifier for this port. The ports with the same VID are in
the same VLAN group. When NAT/Bridge is “Bridge” and the “Tx Tag” is checked, the
VLAN ID will be equal to the WAN ID and will carry that VID into the VLAN group of
subnet.
3. Tx TAG: If NAT/Bridge is “Bridge”, the specific Ethernet LAN port will bridge to some
WAN interface and carry the VLAN ID into the VLAN group of subnet by checking the
Tx TAG box.
4. DHCP Server: Specify a DHCP server for configuring VLAN. This device provides up
to 6 DHCP servers to serve the DHCP requests from different VLANs and DMZ port.
You must define the DHCP Server objects beforehand in Basic Network >> Client&Server&Proxy to assign one DHCP Server object to one VLAN group that is
NAT type.
5. Available WAN: If “NAT/Bridge” is “Bridge”, you must specify which WAN interface
will be the target interface to bridge from the Ethernet LAN port.
6. WAN VID: The VLAN Tag ID that comes from the ISP service. For NAT type VLAN, no
WAN VLAN tag is allowed and the value is forced to “0”. For Bridge type VLAN, You
have to specify the VLAN Tag value that is provided by your ISP.

Afterwards, click on “Save” to store your settings or click “Undo” to give up the changes.
3.1.2.2.3 Tag-Based VLAN
The second type of VLAN is the tag-based VLAN. VLAN membership in a tagged VLAN is
determined by information within the frames that are received on a port. This differs from a
port-based VLAN, where the port VIDs assigned to the ports determine VLAN membership.
When the device receives a frame with a VLAN tag, referred to as a tagged frame, the device
forwards the frame only to those ports that share the same VID.
Page 64
DG-WU2005V User Manual
64
Besides DMZ Port, all the LAN ports belong to one VLAN group, and this VLAN ID is
forced to “1”. It is a special tag based VLAN for devices to operate, there is no tag required
for this default VLAN ID.
If you want to configure your own tag-based VLANs, select “Tag-based” for VLAN Type
first.
Besides, the device provides a DMZ port for various servers deployment in the Intranet. For
its VLAN configuration, you must specify which DHCP server to be used for the DMZ port
by clicking on the “Edit” button. You also can define the VLAN ID there. Please be noted
that the virtual server, virtual computer and DMZ host configuration in Basic Network >> NAT/Bridging need to be same subnet with the specific DHCP server for DMZ Port.
Now, you can setup the VLAN configuration for some different VLAN groups that you need.
From the Tag-based VLAN List, you can add one new VLAN group by clicking on the
Page 65
DG-WU2005V User Manual
65
“Add” command button. But also you can modify some existing VLAN groups by clicking
corresponding “Edit” command buttons at the end of each VLAN group in the Tag-based
VLAN List. Besides, unnecessary VLAN groups can be removed by checking the “Select”
box for those groups and then clicking on the “Delete” command button at the Tag-based
VLAN List caption
1. VLAN ID: Specify a VLAN tag for this VLAN group. The packets with the same VID are
in the same VLAN group.
2. Internet: Specify whether this VLAN can access Internet or not. If it is checked, all the
packets will be un-tagged before it is forwarded to Internet, and all the packets from
Internet will be tagged with the VLAN ID before it is forwarded to the destination
belonging to this configured VLAN group.
3. Port 1 ~ Port 5: Specifies whether it belongs to the VLAN group or not. You just have
to select the check box of the selected ports.
4. DHCP Server1~6 and “---“: Specify a DHCP server for configuring the VLAN. This
device provides up to 6 DHCP servers to serve the DHCP requests from different VLANs.
If you choose” ---”, it means Gateway will not make any response for those DHCP
requests with that VLAN ID.

3.1.3 IPv6 Setup
The growth of the Internet has created a need for more addresses than those that are possible with
IPv4. IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is a version of the Internet Protocol (IP) intended to
succeed IPv4, which is the protocol currently used to direct almost all Internet traffic. IPv6 also
implements additional features not present in IPv4. It simplifies aspects of address assignment
(stateless address auto-configuration), network renumbering and router announcements when
changing Internet connectivity providers. This router supports various types of IPv6 connection
(IPv6 6 to 4 / IPv6 in IPv4 tunnel).
Please ask your ISP what type of IPv6 is supported before you proceed with IPv6
setup.
3.1.3.1 6 to 4
When “6 to 4” IPv6 is selected you need to do the following settings:
6 to 4 WAN IPv6 address settings:
1. 6 to 4 Settings: You may obtain IPv6 DNS automatically or set DNS address manually
for Primary DNS address and secondary DNS address.
2. DNS: Please enter the IPv6 address Primary DNS address and secondary DNS address.
3. MLD Snooping: MLD snooping, IPv6 multicast data is selectively forwarded to a list of
ports that want to receive the data, instead of being flooded to all ports in a VLAN. This

7. Auto-configuration type: You may set stateless or stateful (Dynamic IPv6).
8. Router advertisement Lifetime: You can set the time for the period that the router
send (broadcast) its router advertisement. Each router periodically multicasts a Router
Advertisement from each of its multicast interfaces, announcing the IP address (es) of that
interface. Hosts discover the addresses of their neighboring routers simply by listening
for advertisements. When a host attached to a multicast link starts up, it may multicast a
Router Solicitation to ask for immediate advertisements, rather than waiting for the next
periodic ones to arrive; if and only if no advertisements are forthcoming, the host may
retransmit the solicitation a small number of times, but then must desist from sending any
more solicitations. Any routers that subsequently start up, or that were not discovered
because of packet loss or temporary link partitioning, are eventually discovered by
reception of their periodic (unsolicited) advertisements.

3.1.4 NAT / Bridging
DG-WU2005V User Manual
3.1.4.1 Configuration
1. NAT Loopback: Allows you to access the WAN IP address from inside your local
network. This is useful when you run a server inside your network. For example, if you
set a mail server at LAN side, your local devices can access this mail server through
gateway‟sWAN IP address. You don‟t need to change IP address of mail server no matter
you are at local side or go out. This is useful when you run a server inside your network.

3.1.4.2 Virtual Server & Virtual Computer
3.1.4.2.1 Virtual Server
This device‟s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all
hosts behind this device are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of
them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping.
A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to
the computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and
give user more flexibility on access control. For the details, please refer to System >>
Scheduling.
For example, if you have an FTP server (Service port 21) at 10.0.75.1, a Web server1
(Service port 80) at 10.0.75.2, a Web server2 (Service Port 8080 and Private port 80) at
10.0.75.3, and a VPN server at 10.0.75.6, then you need to specify the following virtual

1. SIP ALG: Support some SIP ALG, like STUN.
3.1.4.3.2 Special AP
Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing,
Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with
a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to
work with this product.
1. Trigger Port: The outbound port number issued by the application. There are some
popular applications to be selected for the trigger port.
2. Incoming Ports: When the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the
specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall.

clients and DHCP servers on different IP networks. Because DHCP is a broadcast-based
protocol, by default its packets do not pass through routers. If you need this feature in the
environment, please enable it.
3.1.5 Routing
If you have more than one router and subnet, you will need to enable routing function to allow
packets to find proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other.
3.1.5.1 Static Routing
For static routing, you can specify up to 32 routing rules. The routing rules allow you to
determine which physical interface addresses are utilized for outgoing IP data grams. You can
enter the destination IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and Metric for each routing rule, and
Page 74
DG-WU2005V User Manual
74
then enable or disable the rule by checking or un-checking the Enable check box.
Please click Add or Edit button to configure a static routing rule:
1. Destination IP: Enter the subnet network of routed destination.
2. Subnet Mask: Input your subnet mask. Subnet mask defines the range of IP address in destination network.
3. Gateway: The IP address of gateway that you want to route for this destination subnet
network. The assigned gateway is required to be in the same subnet of LAN side or WAN
side.
4. Metric: The router uses the value to determine the best possible route. It will go in the
direction of the gateway with the lowest metric.
5. Rule: Check the Enable box to enable this static routing rule.
Page 75
DG-WU2005V User Manual
75
3.1.5.2 Dynamic Routing
The feature of static route is for you to maintain routing table manually. In addition, this
gateway also supports dynamic routing protocol, such as RIPv1/RIPv2, OSPF, BGP for you
to establish routing table automatically. The feature of dynamic routing will be very useful
when there are lots of subnets in your network. Generally speaking, RIP is suitable for small
network. OSPF is more suitable for medium network. BGP is more used for big network
infrastructure.
1. RIP: Routing Information Protocol (RIP) will exchange information about destinations
for computing routes throughout the network. Please select RIPv2 only if you have
different subnets in your network. Otherwise, please select RIPv1 if you need this
protocol.
2. OSPF: OSPF is an interior gateway protocol that routes Internet Protocol (IP) packets
solely within a single routing domain (autonomous system). It gathers link state
information from available routers and constructs a topology map of the network. The
topology determines the routing table presented to the Internet Layer which makes
routing decisions based solely on the destination IP address found in IP packets.
Page 76
DG-WU2005V User Manual
76
You can enable the OSPF routing function by checking on the “Enable” box for the
OSPF item and filling the “Backbone Subnet”. You can add up to 8 area subnets for the
OSPF network and enable them individually by clicking on the “Add” command button.
But also you can modify some existing OSPF areas by clicking corresponding “Edit”
command buttons at the end of each OSPF area definition in the OSPF Area List. Besides,
unnecessary OSPF areas can be removed by checking the “Select” box for those areas
and then clicking on the “Delete” command button at the OSPF Area List caption. When
you finish with the setting, click on “Save” to store your settings.
3. BGP: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the protocol backing the core routing decisions
on the Internet. It maintains a table of IP networks or 'prefixes' which designate network
reach ability among autonomous systems (AS). It is described as a path vector protocol.
BGP does not use traditional Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) metrics, but makes routing
decisions based on path, network policies and/or rule-sets. For this reason, it is more
appropriately termed as reach-ability protocol rather than routing protocol.
Page 77
DG-WU2005V User Manual
77
You can enable the BGP routing function by checking on the “Enable” box for the BGP
item and filling the “Self ID”. You can add up to 8 BGP neighbors for the BGP network
and enable them individually by clicking on the “Add” command button. But also you
can modify some existing BGP neighbors by clicking corresponding “Edit” command
buttons at the end of each BGP neighbor definition in the BGP Neighbor List. Besides,
unnecessary BGP neighbors can be removed by checking the “Select” box for those
neighbors and then clicking on the “Delete” command button at the BGP Neighbor List
caption. When you finish the setting, click on “Save” to store your settings.
3.1.5.3 Routing Information
A routing table, or routing information base (RIB), is a data table stored in a router or a
networked computer that lists the routes to particular network destinations, and in some cases,
metrics (distances) associated with those routes. The routing table contains information about
the topology of the network immediately around it.
This page displays the routing table maintained by this device. It is generated according to
your network configuration.

3.1.6 Client/Server/Proxy
3.1.6.1 Dynamic DNS
How does user access your server if your WAN IP address changes all the time? One way is
to register a new domain name, and maintain your own DNS server. Another simpler way is
to apply a domain name to 3-party DDNS service provider. It can be free or charged.
To host your server on a changing IP address, you have to use dynamic domain name service
(DDNS). Therefore, anyone wishing to reach your host only needs to know the domain name.
Dynamic DNS will map the name of your host to your current IP address, which changes
each time you connect your Internet service provider. This device supports most popular
3-party DDNS service provider, including TZO.com, No-IP.com, DynDNS.org (Dynamic),
DynDNS.org (Custom), and DHS.org. Before you enable Dynamic DNS, you need to register
an account on one of these Dynamic DNS servers that we list in Provider field.
1. DDNS: Check the Enable box if you would like to activate this function.
2. Provider: The DDNS provider supports service for you to bind your IP (even private
IP) with a certain Domain name. You could choose your favorite provider. There are
following options:
Page 79
DG-WU2005V User Manual
79
3. Host Name: Register a domain name to the DDNS provider. The full domain name is
concatenated with host name (you specify) and a suffix (DDNS provider specifies).
4. Username/E-mail: Input username or E-mail based on the DDNS provider you
registered.
5. Password/Key: Input password or key based on the DDNS provider you select.
Afterwards, click on “Save” to store your settings or click “Undo” to give up the changes.

3.2.1.7 IPS
IPS (Intrusion Prevention Systems) are network security appliances that monitor network
and/or system activities for malicious activity. The main functions of IPS are to identify
malicious activity, log information about this activity, attempt to block/stop it and report it.
You can enable the IPS function and check the listed intrusion activities if necessary. There
are some intrusion prevention items that need further Threshold parameter to work properly
for intrusion detection. Besides, you can enable the log alerting so that system will record
Intrusion events when corresponding intrusions are detected.
3.2.1.8 Options
1. Stealth Mode: Enable this feature, this device will not respond to port scans from the
WAN so that makes it less susceptible to discovery and attacks on the Internet.
2. SPI: When this feature is enabled, the router will record the outgoing packet information
pass through the router like IP address, port address, ACK, SEQ number and so on. And
the router will check every incoming packet to detect if this packet is valid.

3. Discard PING from WAN: If this feature is enabled, this gateway won‟t reply any
ICMP request packet from WAN side. It means any remote host can‟t get response when
pinged to this gateway. “Ping” is a useful command that we use to detect if a certain host
is alive or not. But it also lets hackers know about this. Therefore, many Internet servers
will be set to ignore IGMP request.
4. Remote Administrator Hosts (IP / Mask: Port): In general, only local clients (LAN
users) can browse the device‟s built-in web pages for device administration setting. This
feature enables you to perform administration task from a certain remote host. If this
feature is enabled, only the specified IP address can perform remote administration. If the
specified IP address is 0.0.0.0, any host can connect with this product to perform
administration task. You can use subnet mask bits "/nn" notation to specify a group of
trusted IP addresses. For example, "10.1.2.0/24".
NOTE: When Remote Administration is enabled, the web server port will be configured
to 80 as default. You also can change web server port to other port

3.2.2 QoS & BWM
The total amount of data traffic increases nowadays as the higher demand of mobile devices, like
Game / Chat / VoIP / P2P / Video / Web access. In order to pose new requirements for data
transport, e.g. low latency, low data loss, the entire network must ensure them via a connection
service guarantee.
The main goal of QoS & BWM (Quality of Service and Bandwidth Management) is prioritizing
incoming data and preventing data loss due to factors such as jitter, delay and dropping. Another
important aspect of QoS is ensuring that prioritizing one data flow does not interfere with other
data flows. So, QoS helps to prioritize data as it enters your router. By attaching special
identification marks or headers to incoming packets, QoS determines which queue the packets
enter, based on priority. This is useful when there are certain types of data you want to give higher
priority to, such as voice packets given higher priority than Web data packets.
To utilize your network throughput completely, administrator must define bandwidth control rules
carefully to balance the utilization of network bandwidth for all users to access. It is indeed
required that an access gateway satisfies the requirements of latency-critical applications,
minimum access right guarantee, fair bandwidth usage for same subscribed condition and flexible
bandwidth management. It provides a Rule-based QoS to carry out the requirements.

QoS on Multiple WAN Interfaces
QoS on all WAN interfaces satisfies the requirements of latency-critical
applications, minimum access right guarantee, fair bandwidth usage for same
DG-WU2005V User Manual
subscribed condition and flexible bandwidth management in a more flexible
approach.
Integrated with Multi-WAN load balance function to maximize the total network
throughput.
Flexible Bandwidth Management (FBM)
Adjust the bandwidth distribution dynamically based on current bandwidth usage
situation to get the maximum system network performance, and it is transparent to
all users.
Before QoS & BWM function can work correctly, this gateway needs to define the resource
for each WAN interface. First one is the available bandwidth of WAN connection. It was set
in the Basic Network >> WAN >> Physical Interface menu and shown here. Second one is
the maximum number of connection sessions that the WAN interface supports. The last is the
maximum number of priority queues that the WAN interface supports.

1. Total Priority Queues of All WANs: Input the maximum number of priority queues
for all WAN interfaces.
2. WAN Interface: Select the WAN interface to configure following parameters.
3. Bandwidth of Upstream: The maximum bandwidth of uplink in Mbps.
4. Bandwidth of Downstream: The maximum bandwidth of downlink in Mbps.
5. Total Connection Sessions: Input the maximum number of connection sessions for the WAN interface.
3.2.2.2 Rule-based QoS
This gateway provides lots of flexible rules for you to set QoS policies. Basically, you need
to know three parts of information before you create your own policies. First, “who” needs to
be managed? Second, “what” kind of service needs to be managed? The last part is “how”
you prioritize. Once you get this information, you can continue to learn more details in this
section.
Flexible QoS Rule Definition
Multiple Group Categories
Specify the group category in a QoS rule for the target objects that rule to
be applied on.
Group Category is based on VLAN ID, MAC Address, IP Address, Host
Name or Packet Length. Category depends on model.
Differentiated Services
Specify the service type in a QoS rule for the target packets that rule to be
applied on.
Differentiated services can be based on 802.1p, DSCP, TOS, VLAN ID,
User-defined Services and Well-known Services.
Well-known services include FTP(21), SSH(TCP:22), Telnet(23),
Auth(113), SFTP(TCP:115), SNMP&Traps(UDP:161-162),
LDAP(TCP:389), HTTPS(TCP:443), SMTPs(TCP:465), ISAKMP(500),
RTSP(TCP:554), POP3s(TCP:995), Net Meeting(1720), L2TP(UDP:1701)
and PPTP(TCP:1723).
Available Control Functions
There are 4 resources that can be applied in a QoS rule: bandwidth,
connection sessions, priority queues and DiffServ Code Point (DSCP).
Control function that acts on target objects for specific services of packet
flow is based on these resources.
For bandwidth resource, control functions include guaranteeing bandwidth
and limiting bandwidth. For priority queue resource, control function is
setting priority. For DSCP resource, control function is DSCP marking. The
last resource is Connection Sessions; the related control function is limiting
connection sessions.
Individual / Group Control
One QoS rule can be applied to individual member or whole group in the
target group. This feature depends on model.
Outbound / Inbound Control
One QoS rule can be applied to the outbound or inbound direction of packet
flow, even for both. This feature depends on model.
3.2.2.2.1 Configuration
It supports the activation of Rule-based QoS.
1. Rule-based QoS Enable: Check the box if you want to enable the QoS & BWM
function.

3.2.2.2.3 QoS Rule Configuration
It supports the adding of one new rule or the editing of one existing rule. There are some
parameters that need to be specified in one QoS rule. They are Interface, Group, Service,
Resource, Control Function, QoS Direction, Sharing Method, Time Schedule and finally, the
rule enable.
1. Interface: Select the WAN interface for the QoS rule.
2. Group: Specify the target client members for the rule by their VLAN ID, MAC Address,
IP Address, Host Name or Group Object. These base categories depend on product
models. Besides, “IP Address” group can be defined as an IP range with an IP address
and its subnet mask and “Group Object” is defined in the System -> Grouping menu.
But what kinds of groups to use depend on product models.
3. Service: There are 5 options for service, including All, DSCP, TOS, User-defined
Services and Well-known Service as below.
By default, it is “All”. It defines “what” kinds of service packets need to be managed.
When “DSCP” is selected, another “DiffServ CodePoint” value must be specified.
DSCP means DiffServ Code Point, as known as advanced TOS. You can choose this
option if your local service gateway supports DSCP tags. The DSCP categories that this
gateway can detect are as below.
