Chapter 1. Introduction
D-Link Unified Services Routers offer a secure, high performance networking solution
to address the growing needs of small and medium businesses. Integrated high-speed
IEEE 802.11n and 3G wireless technologies offer comparable performance to
traditional wired networks, but with fewer limitations. Optimal network security is
provided via features such as virtual private network (VPN) tunnels, IP Security
(IPsec), Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP),
and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Empower your road warriors with clientless remote
access anywhere and anytime using SSL VPN tunnels.
With the D-Link Unified Services Router you are able to experience a diverse set of
benefits:
Comprehensive Management Capabilities
The DSR-500, DSR-500N, DSR-1000 and DSR-1000N include dual-WAN
Gigabit Ethernet which provides policy-based service management ensuring
maximum productivity for your business operations. The failover feature
maintains data traffic without disconnecting when a landline connection is lost.
The Outbound Load Balancing feature adjusts outgoing traffic across two WAN
interfaces and optimizes the system performance resulting in high availability.
The second WAN port can be configured as a DMZ port allowing you to isolate
servers from your LAN.
DSR-250N has a single WAN interface, and thus it does not support Auto Failover
and Load Balancing scenarios.
Superior Wireless Performance
Designed to deliver superior wireless performance, the DSR-500N and DSR1000N include 802.11 a/b/g/n, allowing for operation on either the 2.4 GHz or
5 GHz radio bands. Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) technology allows the
DSR-500N and DSR-
DSR-250N and DSR-500N supports the 2.4GHz radio band only.
Flexible Deployment Options
The DSR-1000 / 1000N supports Third Generation (3G) Networks via an
extendable USB 3G dongle. This 3G network capability offers an additional
secure data connection for networks that provide critical services. The DSR1000N can be configured to automatically switch to a 3G network whenever a
physical link is lost.
Robust VPN features
A fully featured virtual private network (VPN) provides your mobile workers
and branch offices with a secure link to your network. The DSR-250N, DSR500, DSR-500N, DSR-1000 and DSR-1000N are capable of simultaneously
managing 5, 10, 20 Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN tunnels respectively,
10
Unified Services Router User Manual
empowering your mobile users by providing remote access to a central
corporate database. Site-to-site VPN tunnels use IP Security (IPsec) Protocol,
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), or Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol
(L2TP) to facilitate branch office connectivity through encrypted virtual links.
The DSR-250N, DSR-500(N) and DSR-1000(N) support 25, 35 and 75
simultaneous IPSec VPN tunnels respectively.
Efficient D-Link Green Technology
As a concerned member of the global community, D-Link is devoted to
providing eco-friendly products. D-Link Green WiFi and D-Link Green
Ethernet save power and prevent waste. The D-Link Green WLAN scheduler
reduces wireless power automatically during off-peak hours. Likewise the DLink Green Ethernet program adjusts power usage based on the detected cable
length and link status. In addition, compliance with RoHS (Restriction of
Hazardous Substances) and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment)
directives make D-Link Green certified devices the environmentally responsible
choice.
Support for the 3G wireless WAN USB dongle is only available for DSR-1000 and
DSR-1000N.
1.1 About this User Manual
This document is a high level manual to allow new D-Link Unified Services Router
users to configure connectivity, setup VPN tunnels, establish firewall rules and
perform general administrative tasks. Typical deployment and use case scenarios are
described in each section. For more detailed setup instructions and explanations of
each configuration parameter, refer to the online help that can be accessed from each
page in the router GUI.

LAN Setup
It is assumed that the user has a machine for management connected to the LAN to the
router. The LAN connection may be through the wired Ethernet ports available on the
router, or once the initial setup is complete, the DSR may also be managed through its
wireless interface as it is bridged with the LAN. graphical user

2.1 LAN Configuration
Setup > Network Settings > LAN Configuration
By default, the router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
server to the hosts on the WLAN or LAN network. With DHCP, PCs and other LAN
devices can be assigned IP addresses as well as addresses for DNS servers, Windows
Internet Name Service (WINS) servers, and the default gateway. With the DHCP
server enabled for LAN and
WLAN clients. The PCs in the LAN are assigned IP addresses from a pool of
addresses specified in this procedure. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned
to avoid duplicate addresses on the LAN.
For most applications the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings are satisfactory. If you
want another PC on your network to be the DHCP server or if you are manually
configuring the network settings of all of your PCs, .
DHCP relay can be used to forward DHCP lease information from another LAN
eful for wireless
clients.
Instead of using a DNS server, you can use a Windows Internet Naming Service
(WINS) server. A WINS server is the equivalent of a DNS server but uses the
NetBIOS protocol to resolve hostnames. The router includes the WINS server IP
address in the DHCP configuration when acknowledging a DHCP request from a
DHCP client.
You can also enable DNS proxy for the LAN. When this is enabled the router then as
disabled all DHCP clients receive the DNS IP addresses of the ISP.
Unified Services Router User Manual
To configure LAN Connectivity, please follow the steps below:
1. In the LAN Setup page, enter the following information for your router:
IP address (factory default: 192.168.10.1).
If you change the IP address and click Save Settings, the GUI will not respond.
Open a new connection to the new IP address and log in again. Be sure the LAN
host (the machine used to manage the router) has obtained IP address from newly
assigned pool (or has a static before
accessing the router via changed IP address.
Subnet mask (factory default: 255.255.255.0).
2. In the DHCP section, select the DHCP mode:
DHCP Server. With this option the router assigns an IP address within the
specified range plus additional specified information to any LAN device
that requests DHCP served addresses.
DHCP Relay: With this option enabled, DHCP clients on the LAN can
receive IP address leases and corresponding information from a DHCP
server on a different subnet. Specify the Relay Gateway, and when LAN
clients make a DHCP request it will be passed along to the server
accessible via the Relay Gateway IP address.
If DHCP is being enabled, enter the following DHCP server parameters:
Starting and Ending IP Addresses: Enter the first and last continuous
addresses in the IP address pool. Any new DHCP client joining the LAN is
assigned an IP address in this range. The default starting address is
192.168.10.2. The default ending address is 192.168.10.100. These
address. You may wish to save part of the subnet range for devices with
statically assigned IP addresses in the LAN.
Primary and Secondary DNS servers: If configured domain name system
(DNS) servers are available on the LAN enter their IP addresses here.
WINS Server (optional): Enter the IP address for the WINS server or, if
present in your network, the Windows NetBios server.

In IPv6 mode, the LAN DHCP server is enabled by default (similar to IPv4 mode).
The DHCPv6 server will serve IPv6 addresses from configured address pools with
the IPv6 Prefix Length assigned to the LAN.
IPv4 / IPv6 mode must be enabled in the Advanced > IPv6 > IP mode to enable
IPv6 configuration options.
LAN Settings
The default IPv6 LAN address for the router is fec0::1. You can change this 128 bit
IPv6 address based on your network requirements. The other field that defines the
LAN settings for the router is the prefix length. The IPv6 network (subnet) is
identified by the initial bits of the address called the prefix. By default this is 64
bits long. All hosts in the network have common initial bits for their IPv6 address;
length field.

If you change the IP address and click Save Settings, the GUI will not respond.
Open a new connection to the new IP address and log in again. Be sure the LAN
host (the machine used to manage the router) has obtained IP address from newly
accessing the router via changed IP address.
As with an IPv4 LAN network, the router has a DHCPv6 server. If enabled, the
router assigns an IP address within the specified range plus additional specified
information to any LAN PC that requests DHCP served addresses.
The following settings are used to configure the DHCPv6 server:
17
Unified Services Router User Manual
DHCP Mode: The IPv6 DHCP server is either stateless or stateful. If stateless is
selected an external IPv6 DHCP server is not required as the IPv6 LAN hosts
are auto-configured by this router. In this case the router advertisement daemon
(RADVD) must be configured on this device and ICMPv6 router discovery
messages are used by the host for auto-configuration. There are no managed
addresses to serve the LAN nodes. If stateful is selected the IPv6 LAN host will
rely on an external DHCPv6 server to provide required configuration settings
The domain name of the DHCPv6 server is an optional setting
Server Preference is used to indicate the preference level of this DHCP server.
DHCP advertise messages with the highest server preference value to a LAN
host are preferred over other DHCP server advertise messages. The default is
255.
The DNS server details can be manually entered here (primary/secondary
options. An alternative is to allow the LAN DHCP client to receive the DNS
server details from the ISP directly. By selecting Use DNS proxy, this router
acts as a proxy for all DNS requests and communicates
servers (a WAN configuration parameter).
Primary and Secondary DNS servers: If there are configured domain name
system (DNS) servers available on the LAN enter the IP addresses here.
Lease/Rebind time sets the duration of the DHCPv6 lease from this router to the
LAN client.
IPv6 Address Pools
This feature allows you to define the IPv6 delegation prefix for a range of IP
addresses . Using a delegation prefix
you can automate the process of informing other networking equipment on the LAN
of DHCP information specific for the assigned prefix.
2.1.2 Configuring IPv6 Router Advertisements
Router Advertisements are analogous to IPv4 DHCP assignments for LAN clients, in
that the router will assign an IP address and supporting network information to
devices that are configured to accept such details. Router Advertisement is required
in an IPv6 network is required for stateless auto configuration of the IPv6 LAN. By
configuring the Router Advertisement Daemon on this router, the DSR will listen on
the LAN for router solicitations and respond to these LAN hosts with router
advisements.

RADVD
Advanced > IPv6 > IPv6 LAN > Router Advertisement
To support stateless IPv6 auto configuration on the LAN, set the RADVD status to
Enable. The following settings are used to configure RADVD:
Advertise Mode: Select Unsolicited Multicast to send router advertisements
known IPv6 addresses on the LAN, and thereby reduce overall network
traffic, select Unicast only.
Advertise Interval: When advertisements are unsolicited multicast packets,
this interval sets the maximum time between advertisements from the
interface. The actual duration between advertisements is a random value
between one third of this field and this field. The default is 30 seconds.
RA Flags:
these flags. Chose Managed to use the administered /stateful protocol for
address auto configuration. If the Other flag is selected the host uses
administered/stateful protocol for non-address auto configuration.
Router Preference: this low/medium/high parameter determines the
preference associated with the RADVD process of the router. This is useful
if there are other RADVD enabled devices on the LAN as it helps avoid
conflicts for IPv6 clients.
MTU: The router advertisement will set this maximum transmission unit
(MTU) value for all nodes in the LAN that are autoconfigured by the router.
The default is 1500.
Router Lifetime:
of this router as a default router for the interface. The default is 3600
seconds. Upon expiration of this value, a new RADVD exchange must take
place between the host and this router.

Advertisement Prefixes
Advanced > IPv6 > IPv6 LAN > Advertisement Prefixes
The router advertisements configured with advertisement prefixes allow this router
to inform hosts how to perform stateless address auto configuration. Router
advertisements contain a list of subnet prefixes that allow the router to determine
neighbors and whether the host is on the same link as the router.
The following prefix options are available for the router advertisements:
IPv6 Prefix Type: To ensure hosts support IPv6 to IPv4 tunnel select the
6to4 prefix type. Selecting Global/Local/ISATAP will allow the nodes to
support all other IPv6 routing options
SLA ID: The SLA ID (Site-Level Aggregation Identifier) is available when
6to4 Prefixes are selected.
LAN interface used for router advertisements.
IPv6 Prefix: When using Global/Local/ISATAP prefixes, this field is used to
define the IPv6 network advertised by this router.
20
Unified Services Router User Manual
IPv6 Prefix Length: This value indicates the number contiguous, higher
order bits of the IPv6 address that define up the network portion of the
address. Typically this is 64.
Prefix Lifetime: This defines the duration (in seconds) that the requesting
node is allowed to use the advertised prefix. It is analogous to DHCP lease
time in an IPv4 network.

2.2 VLAN Configuration
The router supports virtual network isolation on the LAN with the use of VLANs.
LAN devices can be configured to communicate in a subnetwork defined by VLAN
identifiers. LAN ports can be assigned unique VLAN IDs so that traffic to and from
that physical port can be isolated from the general LAN. VLAN filtering is
particularly useful to limit broadcast packets of a device in a large network
VLAN support is disabled by default in the router. In the VLAN Configuration page,
enable VLAN support on the router and then proceed to the next section to define the
virtual network.
Setup > VLAN Settings > Available VLAN
The Available VLAN page shows a list of configured VLANs by name and VLAN ID.
A VLAN membership can be created by clicking the Add button below the List of
Available VLANs.
A VLAN membership entry consists of a VLAN identifier and the numerical VLAN
ID which is assigned to the VLAN membership. The VLAN ID value can be any
number from 2 to 4091. VLAN ID 1 is reserved for the default VLAN, which is used
for untagged frames received on the interface. By enabling Inter VLAN Routing, you
21
Unified Services Router User Manual
will allow traffic from LAN hosts belonging to this VLAN ID to pass through to other
configured VLAN IDs that have Inter VLAN Routing enabled.
Figure 5: Adding VLAN memberships to the LAN
2.2.1 Associating VLANs to ports
In order to tag all traffic through a specific LAN port with a VLAN ID, you can
associate a VLAN to a physical port.
Setup > VLAN Settings > Port VLAN
VLAN membership properties for the LAN and wireless LAN are listed on this page.
The VLAN Port table displays the port identifier, the mode setting for that port and
VLAN membership information. The configuration page is accessed by selecting
one of the four physical ports or a configured access point and clicking Edit.
The edit page offers the following configuration options:
Mode: The mode of this VLAN can be General, Access, or Trunk. The
default is access.
In General mode the port is a member of a user selectable set of VLANs.
The port sends and receives data that is tagged or untagged with a VLAN
ID. If the data into the port is untagged, it is assigned the defined PVID. In
the configuration from Figure 4, Port 3 is a General port with PVID 3, so
untagged data into Port 3 will be assigned PVID 3. All tagged data sent out
of the port with the same PVID will be untagged. This is mode is typically
used with IP Phones that have dual Ethernet ports. Data coming from phone
to the switch port on the router will be tagged. Data passing through the
phone from a connected device will be untagged.
22
Unified Services Router User Manual
Figure 6: Port VLAN list
In Access mode the port is a member of a single VLAN (and only one). All
data going into and out of the port is untagged. Traffic through a port in
access mode looks like any other Ethernet frame.
In Trunk mode the port is a member of a user selectable set of VLANs. All
data going into and out of the port is tagged. Untagged coming into the port
is not forwarded, except for the default VLAN with PVID=1, which is
untagged. Trunk ports multiplex traffic for multiple VLANs over the same
physical link.
Select PVID for the port when the General mode is selected.
Configured VLAN memberships will be displayed on the VLAN
Membership Configuration for the port. By selecting one more VLAN
membership options for a General or Trunk port, traffic can be routed
between the selected VLAN membership IDs

2.3 Configurable Port: DMZ Setup
DSR-250N does not have a configurable port there is no DMZ support.
This router supports one of the physical ports to be configured as a secondary WAN
Ethernet port or a dedicated DMZ port. A DMZ is a subnetwork that is open to the
public but behind the firewall. The DMZ adds an additional layer of security to the
LAN, as specific services/ports that are exposed to the internet on the DMZ do not
have to be exposed on the LAN. It is recommended that hosts that must be exposed to
the internet (such as web or email servers) be placed in the DMZ network. Firewall
rules can be allowed to permit access specific services/ports to the DMZ from both
the LAN or WAN. In the event of an attack to any of the DMZ nodes, the LAN is not
necessarily vulnerable as well.
Setup > DMZ Setup > DMZ Setup Configuration
DMZ configuration is identical to the LAN configuration. There are no restrictions on
the IP address or subnet assigned to the DMZ port, other than the fact that it cannot
be identical to the IP address given to the LAN interface of this gateway.

2.4 Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
Advanced > Advanced Network > UPnP
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a feature that allows the router to discovery
devices on the network that can communicate with the router and allow for auto
configuration. If a network device is detected by UPnP, the router can open internal
or external ports for the traffic protocol required by that network device.
25
Unified Services Router User Manual
Once UPnP is enabled, you can configure the router to detect UPnP-supporting
devices on the LAN (or a configured VLAN). If disabled, the router will not allow for
automatic device configuration.
Configure the following settings to use UPnP:
Advertisement Period: This is the frequency that the router broadcasts UPnP
information over the network. A large value will minimize network traffic but
cause delays in identifying new UPnP devices to the network.
Advertisement Time to Live: This is expressed in hops for each UPnP packet. This
is the number of steps a packet is allowed to propagate before being discarded.
Small values will limit the UPnP broadcast range. A default of 4 is typical for
networks with few switches.

advertisements. The following information is displayed for each detected device:
Active: A yes/no indicating whether the port of the UPnP device that established a
connection is currently active
Protocol: The network protocol (i.e. HTTP, FTP, etc.) used by the DSR
Int. Port (Internal Port): The internal ports opened by UPnP (if any)
Ext. Port (External Port): The external ports opened by UPnP (if any)

2.5 Captive Portal
DSR-250N does not have support for the Captive Portal feature.
LAN users can gain internet access via web portal authentication with the DSR.
Also referred to as Run-Time Authentication, a Captive Portal is ideal for a web
café scenario where users initiate HTTP connection requests for web access but are
not interested in accessing any LAN services. Firewall policies underneath will
define which users require authentication for HTTP access, and when a matching
user request is made the DSR will intercept the request and prompt for a username /
password. The login credentials are compared against the RunTimeAuth users in
user database prior to granting HTTP access.
Captive Portal is available for LAN users only and not for DMZ hosts.
Status > Active RunTime Sessions
The Active Runtime internet sessions through
below table. These users are present in the local or external user database and have
had their login credentials approved for internet access. A
allows the DSR admin to selectively drop an authenticated user.

Chapter 3. Connecting to the Internet:
WAN Setup
This router has two WAN ports that can be used to establish a connection to the
internet. The following ISP connection types are supported: DHCP, Static, PPPoE,
PPTP, L2TP, 3G Internet (via USB modem).
It is assumed that you have arranged for internet service with your Internet Service
Provider (ISP). Please contact your ISP or network administrator for the configuration
information that will be required to setup the router.
3.1 Internet Setup Wizard
Setup > Wizard > Internet
The Internet Connection Setup Wizard is available for users new to networking. By
going through a few straightforward configuration pages you can take the information
provided by your ISP to get your WAN connection up and enable internet access for
your network.
Figure 11: Internet Connection Setup Wizard
You can start using the Wizard by logging in with the administrator password for the
router. Once authenticated set the time zone that you are located in, and then choose
the type of ISP connection type: DHCP, Static, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP. Depending on
the connection type a username/password may be required to register this router with
the ISP. In most cases the default settings can be used if the ISP did not specify that
parameter. The last step in the Wizard is to click the Connect button, which confirms
the settings by establishing a link with the ISP. Once connected, you can move on and
configure other features in this router.
