LAN
You can configure the LAN IP address to suit your preference. Many users will find it convenient to use the default settings together with DHCP service to manage the IP settings for their private network. The IP address of the Router is the base address used for DHCP. In order to use the Router for DHCP on your LAN, the IP address pool used for DHCP must be compatible with the IP address of the Router. The IP addresses available in the DHCP IP address pool will change automatically if you change the IP address of the Router.
To access the Local Area Network (LAN) Setup window, click the LAN button in the Advanced Setup directory. This window allows you to set up a LAN interface. When you are finished,
click either the Save or Save/Reboot button.

Port Triggering
Some applications require that the remote parties open specific ports in the Router’s firewall for access. Port Trigger dynamically opens the Open Ports in the firewall when an application on the LAN initiates a TCP/UDP connection to a remote party using Trigger Ports. The Router allows the remote party form the WAN side to establish new connections back to the application on the LAN side using the Open Ports. Applications such as games, video conferencing, and other remote access applications require that specific ports in the Router’s firewall be opened for access by applications.
Click the Add button to configure port triggering.

Section 3 – Configuration
DMZ Host
Since some applications are not compatible with NAT, the Router supports use of a DMZ IP address for a single host on the LAN. This IP address is not protected by NAT and will therefore be visible to agents on the Internet with the right type of software. Keep in mind that any client PC in the DMZ will be exposed to various types of security risks. If you use the DMZ, take measures (such as client-based virus protection) to protect the remaining client PCs on your LAN from possible contamination through the DMZ.
To designate a DMZ IP address, type in the IP Address of the server or device on your LAN, and click the Save/Apply button.
Security
To access the Security window, click the Security button in the Advanced Setup directory. The Security button appears after configuring WAN interface.
IP Filtering
The IP Filtering button appears when configuring WAN interface in PPPoA, PPPoE, MER or IPoA.
IP Filtering - Outgoing
This window allows you to create a filter rule to block outgoing IP traffic by specifying a filter name and at least one condition on this window. All of the specified conditions in this filter rule must be satisfied for the rule to take effect. Filters are used to allow or deny LAN or WAN users from accessing the Internet or your internal network.
If you are setting up the outgoing IP filtering, click the Add button.

MAC Filtering
The MAC Filtering button appears when configuring WAN interface in Bridging.
MAC filtering are used to block or allow various types of packets through the WAN/LAN interface. This may be done for security or to improve network efficiency. The rules are configured for individual devices based on MAC address. Filter rules can be set up for source, destination or both. You can set up filter rules and disable the entire set of rules without loosing the rules that have been configured.
Click Change Policy to configure the global policy as Forwarded or Blocked.
If you are setting up the MAC filtering, click the Add button.

Quality of Service
QoS or Quality of Service allows your Router to help prioritize the data packet flow in your Router and network. This is very important for time sensitive applications such as VoIP where it may help prevent dropped calls. Large amounts of non-critical data can be scaled so as not to affect these prioritized sensitive real-time programs.
To access the QoS – Queue Management Configuration window, click the Quality of Service button in the Advanced Setup directory.
This window allows you to set up QoS on the Router. When you are finished, click on the Save/Apply button.

To access the DNS windows, click the DNS button in the Advanced Setup directory. The NAT button appears when configuring WAN interface in PPPoA, PPPoE, MER or IPoA.
DNS Server
If you have not been given specific DNS server IP addresses or if the Router is not pre-configured with DNS server information, tick the Enable Automatic Assigned DNS checkbox. Auto discovery DNS instructs the Router to automatically obtain the DNS IP address from the ISP through DHCP. If your WAN connection uses a Static IP address, auto discovery for DNS cannot be used.
If you have DNS IP addresses provided by your ISP, deselect the Enable Automatic Assigned DNS checkbox and enter these IP addresses in the available entry fields for the Primary DNS Server and the Secondary DNS Server. Click the Save button when you are finished.
Dynamic DNS
The Router supports Dynamic DNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service). The Dynamic DNS service allows a dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host name in any of the many domains, allowing access to a specified host from various locations on the Internet. This is enabled to allow remote access to a host by clicking a hyperlinked URL in the form hostname.dyndns.org, Many ISPs assign public IP addresses using DHCP, this can make it difficult to locate a specific host on the LAN using standard DNS. If for example you are running a public web server or VPN server on your LAN, this ensures that the host can be located from the Internet if the public IP address changes. DDNS requires that an account be setup with one of the supported DDNS providers.
