In the Quick Start Wizard, you can configure the router to access the Internet with different
protocol/modes such as PPPoE, PPPoA, Bridged IP, or Routed IP. The router supports the
Ethernet WAN interface for Internet access.
Now, you have to select an appropriate WAN connection type for connecting to the Internet
through this router according to the settings that your ISP provided.
VPI Stands for Virtual Path Identifier. It is an 8-bit header inside each
ATM cell that indicates where the cell should be routed. ATM is a
method of sending data in small packets of fixed sizes. It is used
for transferring data to client computers.
Page 10

22..22..22 PPPPPPooEE//PPPPPPooAA
PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It relies on two widely accepted
standards: PPP and Ethernet. It connects users through an Ethernet to the Internet with a
common broadband medium, such as a single DSL line, wireless device or cable modem. All
the users over the Ethernet can share a common connection. And the PPPoA stands for
Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM. PPPoA uses the PPP dial-up protocol with ATM as the
transport.
PPPoE or PPPoA is used for most of DSL modem users. All local users can share one PPPoE
or PPPoA connection for accessing the Internet. Your service provider will provide you
information about user name, password, and authentication mode.
If your ISP provides you the PPPoE or PPPoA connection, please select PPPoE or PPPoA
for this router. The following page will be shown:

IP means Internet Protocol. Every device in an IP-based Network including routers, print
server, and host PCs, needs an IP address to identify its location on the network. To avoid
address conflicts, IP addresses are publicly registered with the Network Information Centre
(NIC). Having a unique IP address is mandatory for those devices participated in the public
network but not in the private TCP/IP local area networks (LANs), such as host PCs under the
management of a router since they do not need to be accessed by the public. Hence, the NIC
has reserved certain addresses that will never be registered publicly. These are known as
private IP addresses, and are listed in the following ranges:
From 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
From 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
From 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
WWhhaatt aarree PPuubblliicc IIPP AAddddrreessss aanndd PPrriivvaattee IIPP AAddddrreessss
As the router plays a role to manage and further protect its LAN, it interconnects groups of
host PCs. Each of them has a private IP address assigned by the built-in DHCP server of the
Vigor router. The router itself will also use the default private IP address: 192.168.1.1 to
communicate with the local hosts. Meanwhile, Vigor router will communicate with other
network devices through a public IP address. When the data flow passing through, the
Network Address Translation (NAT) function of the router will dedicate to translate
public/private addresses, and the packets will be delivered to the correct host PC in the local
area network. Thus, all of the host PCs can share a common Internet connection.
GGeett YYoouurr PPuubblliicc IIPP AAddddrreessss ffrroomm IISSPP
To acquire a public IP address from your ISP for Vigor router as a customer premises
equipment, there are three common protocols: Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE),
PPPoA and MPoA. Multi-PVC is provided for more advanced setup of the above.
In ADSL deployment, the PPP (Point to Point)-style authentication and authorization is
required for bridging customer premises equipment (CPE). Point to Point Protocol over
Ethernet (PPPoE) connects a network of hosts via an access device to a remote access
concentrator or aggregation concentrator. This implementation provides users with significant
ease of use. Meanwhile it provides access control, billing, and type of service according to
user requirement.
When a router begins to connect to your ISP, a serial of discovery process will occur to ask for
a connection. Then a session will be created. Your user ID and password is authenticated via
PAP or CHAP with RADIUS authentication system. And your IP address, DNS server, and
other related information will usually be assigned by your ISP.

Below shows menu items for Internet Access:
33..11..22 PPPPPPooEE//PPPPPPooAA
PPPoA, included in RFC1483, can be operated in either Logical Link Control-Subnetwork
Access Protocol or VC-Mux mode. As a CPE device, Vigor router encapsulates the PPP
session based for transport across the ADSL loop and your ISP’s Digital Subscriber Line
Access Pultiplexer (SDLAM).

33..22 LLAANN
Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design of
network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP.
Below shows menu items for LAN:
33..22..11 BBaassiiccss ooff LLAANN
The most generic function of Vigor router is NAT. It creates a private subnet of your own. As
mentioned previously, the router will talk to other public hosts on the Internet by using public
IP address and talking to local hosts by using its private IP address. What NAT does is to
translate the packets from public IP address to private IP address to forward the right packets
to the right host and vice versa. Besides, Vigor router has a built-in DHCP server that assigns
private IP address to each local host. See the following diagram for a briefly understanding.
Page 21
Vigor110 User’s Guide
17
WWhhaatt iiss RRoouuttiinngg IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn PPrroottooccooll ((RRIIPP))
Vigor router will exchange routing information with neighboring routers using the RIP to
accomplish IP routing. This allows users to change the information of the router such as IP
address and the routers will automatically inform for each other.
WWhhaatt iiss SSttaattiicc RRoouuttee
When you have several subnets in your LAN, sometimes a more effective and quicker way for
connection is the Static routes function rather than other method. You may simply set rules to
forward data from one specified subnet to another specified subnet without the presence of
RIP.

IP Addr ess Type in private IP address for connecting to a local private network
(Default: 192.168.1.1).
Subnet Mask Type in an address code that determines the size of the network.
(Default: 255.255.255.0/ 24)
DHCP Server
Configuration
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The
router by factory default acts a DHCP server for your network so it
automatically dispatch related IP settings to any local user
configured as a DHCP client. It is highly recommended that you
leave the router enabled as a DHCP server if you do not have a
DHCP server for your network.
If you want to use another DHCP server in the network other than
Vigor Router’s, you can let Relay Agent help you to redirect the
DHCP request to the specified location.
Enable Server - Let the router assign IP address to every host in the
LAN.
Disable Server – Let you manually assign IP address to every host
in the LAN.
Relay Agent – Specify the subnet that DHCP server is located the
relay agent should redirect the DHCP request to.
Start IP Address - Enter a value of the IP address pool for the
DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 1st IP
address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting IP address must be
192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254.
IP Pool Counts - Enter the maximum nu mber of PCs that you want
the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. The default is 50 and the
maximum is 253.
Gateway IP Address - Enter a value of the gateway IP address for
the DHCP server. The value is usually as same as the 1st IP address
of the router, which means the router is the default gateway.
DHCP Server IP Address for Relay Agent - Set the IP address of
the DHCP server you are going to use so the Relay Agent can help to
forward the DHCP request to the DHCP server.
There are two common scenarios of LAN settings that stated in Chapter 4. For the
configuration examples, please refer to that Chapter to get more information for your
necessity.

Here is an example of setting Static Route in Main Router so that user A and B locating in
different subnet can talk to each other via the router. Assuming the Internet access has been
configured and the router works properly:
z use the Main Router to surf the Internet.
z create a private subnet 192.168.10.0 using an internal Router A (192.168.1.2)
z create a public subnet 211.100.88.0 via an internal Router B (192.168.1.3).
z have set Main Router 192.168.1.1 as the default gateway for the Router A 192.168.1.2.
Before setting Static Route, user A cannot talk to user B for Router A can only forward
recognized packets to its default gateway Main Router.
1. Go to LAN page and click General Setup, select 1st Subnet as the RIP Protocol
Control. Then click the OK button.
Page 24
Vigor110 User’s Guide
20
Note: There are two reasons that we have to apply RIP Protocol Control on 1st
Subnet. The first is that the LAN interface can exchange RIP packets with the
neighboring routers via the 1st subnet (192.168.1.0/24). The second is that those
hosts on the internal private subnets (ex. 192.168.10.0/24) can access the Internet

33..33 NNAATT
Usually, the router serves as an NAT (Network Address Translation) router. NAT is a
mechanism that one or more private IP addresses can be mapped into a single public one.
Public IP address is usually assigned by your ISP, for which you may get charged. Private IP
addresses are recognized only among internal hosts.
When the outgoing packets destined to some public server on the Internet reach the NAT
router, the router will change its source address into the public IP address of the router, select
the available public port, and then forward it. At the same time, the router shall list an entry in
a table to memorize this address/port-mapping relationship. When the public server response,
the incoming traffic, of course, is destined to the router’s public IP address and the router will
do the inversion based on its table. Therefore, the internal host can communicate with external
host smoothly.
The benefit of the NAT includes:
z Save cost on applying public IP address and apply efficient usage of IP address.
NAT allows the internal IP addresses of local hosts to be translated into one public IP
address, thus you can have only one IP address on behalf of the entire internal hosts.
z Enhance security of the internal network by obscuring the IP address. There are
many attacks aiming victims based on the IP address. Since the attacker cannot be aware
of any private IP addresses, the NAT function can protect the internal network.
Note: On NAT page, you will see the private IP address defined in RFC-1918. Usually
we use the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet for the router. As stated before, the NAT facility can
map one or more IP addresses and/or service ports into different specified services. In
other words, the NAT function can be achieved by using port mapping methods.
Below shows the menu items for NAT.

Port Redirection is usually set up for server related service inside the local network (LAN),
such as web servers, FTP servers, E-mail servers etc. Most of the case, you need a public IP
address for each server and this public IP address/domain name are recognized by all users.
Since the server is actually located inside the LAN, the network well protected by NAT of the
router, and identified by its private IP address/port, the goal of Port Redirection function is to
forward all access request with public IP address from external users to the mapping private IP
address/port of the server.
Page 27
Vigor110 User’s Guide
23
The port redirection can only apply to incoming traffic. The server users inside the LAN can
not access public IP address of the server. The correct route is to access the server using the
local private IP address of the server, or you should set up an alias in a Windows hosts file.
Please only redirect the ports you know you have to forward rather than forward all ports.
Otherwise, you will compromise the firewall-type security initially deployed by the NAT
facility.
To use this function, please go to NAT page and choose Port Redirection web page. The
Port Redirection Table provides 10 port-mapping entries for the internal hosts.
Service Name Enter the description of the specific network service.
Protocol Select the transport layer protocol (TCP or UDP).
Public Port Specify which port can be redirected to the specified Private IP and
Port of the internal host.

Private IP Specify the private IP address of the internal host providing the
service.
Private Port Specify the private port number of the service offered by the internal
host.
Active Check this box to activate the port-mapping entry you have defined.
Note that the router has its own built-in services (servers) such as Telnet, HTTP and FTP etc.
Since the common port numbers of these services (servers) are all the same, you may need to
reset the router’s in order to avoid confliction.
For example, the built-in web configurator in the router is with default port 80, which may
conflict with the web server in the local network, http://192.168.1.13:80. Therefore, you need
to change the router’s http port to any one other than the default port 80 to avoid conflict,
such as 8080. This can be set in the System Maintenance >>Management Setup. You then
will access the admin screen of by suffixing the IP address with 8080, e.g.,
http://192.168.1.1:8080 instead of port 80.

As mentioned above, Port Redirection can redirect incoming TCP/UDP or other traffic on
particular ports to the specific private IP address/port of host in the LAN. However, other IP
protocols, for example Protocols 50 (ESP) and 51 (AH), do not travel on a fixed port. Vigor
router provides a facility DMZ Host that maps ALL unsolicited data on any protocol to a
single host in the LAN. Regular web surfing and other such Internet activities from other
clients will continue to work without inappropriate interruption. DMZ Host allows a defined
internal user to be totally exposed to the Internet, which usually helps some special
applications such as Netmeeting or Internet Games etc.

While the broadband users demand more bandwidth for multimedia, interactive applications,
or distance learning, security has been always the most concerned. The firewall of the Vigor
router helps to protect your local network against attack from unauthorized outsiders. It also
restricts users in the local network from accessing the Internet. Furthermore, it can filter out
specific packets that trigger the router to build an unwanted outgoing connection.
The most basic security concept is to set user name and password while you install your router.
The administrator login will prevent unauthorized access to the router configuration from your
router.
If you did not set password during installation; you can go to System Maintenance to set up
your password.

Depending on whether there is an existing Internet connection, or in other words “the WAN
link status is up or down”, the IP filter architecture categorizes traffic into two: Call Filter and
Data Filter.
z Call Filter - When there is no existing Internet connection, Call Filter is applied to all
traffic, all of which should be outgoing. It will check packets according to the filter rules.
Page 34
Vigor110 User’s Guide
30
If legal, the packet will pass. Then the router shall “initiate a call” to build the Internet
connection and send the packet to Internet.
z Data Filter - When there is an existing Internet connection, Data Filter is applied to
incoming and outgoing traffic. It will check packets according to the filter rules. If legal,
the packet will pass the router.
The following illustrations are flow charts explaining how router will treat incoming traffic
and outgoing traffic respectively.

Stateful inspection is a firewall architecture that works at the network layer. Unlike legacy
static packet filtering, which examines a packet based on the information in its header, stateful
inspection builds up a state machine to track each connection traversing all interfaces of the
firewall and makes sure they are valid. The stateful firewall of Vigor router not just examine
the header information also monitor the state of the connection.

As the popularity of all kinds of instant messenger application arises, communication cannot
become much easier. Nevertheless, while some industry may leverage this as a great tool to
connect with their customers, some industry may take reserve attitude in order to reduce
employee misusage during office hour or prevent unknown security leak. It is similar situation
for corporation towards peer-to-peer applications since file-sharing can be convenient but
insecure at the same time. To address these needs, we provide IM and P2P blocking

The DoS Defense functionality helps you to detect and mitigate the DoS attack. The attacks
are usually categorized into two types, the flooding-type attacks and the vulnerability attacks.
The flooding-type attacks will attempt to exhaust all your system's resource while the
vulnerability attacks will try to paralyze the system by offending the vulnerabilities of the
protocol or operation system.
The DoS Defense function enables the Vigor router to inspect every incoming packet based on
the attack signature database. Any malicious packet that might duplicate itself to paralyze the
host in the secure LAN will be strictly blocked and a Syslog message will be sent as warning, if
you set up Syslog server.
Also the Vigor router monitors the traffic. Any abnormal traffic flow violating the pre-defined
parameter, such as the number of thresholds, is identified as an attack and the Vigor router will
activate its defense mechanism to mitigate in a real-time manner.
The below shows the attack types that DoS/DDoS defense function can detect:
1. SYN flood attack
2. UDP flood attack
3. ICMP flood attack
4. Port scan
5. TCP Flag scan
6. Trace route
7. IP options
8. Unknown protocol
9. Land

To provide an appropriate cyberspace to users, Vigor router equips with URL Content Filter
not only to limit illegal traffic from/to the inappropriate web sites but also prohibit other web
feature where malicious code may conceal.
Once a user type in or click on an URL with objectionable keywords, URL keyword blocking
facility will decline the HTTP request to that web page thus can limit user’s access to the
website. You may imagine URL Content Filter as a well-trained convenience-store clerk who
won’t sell adult magazines to teenagers. At office, URL Content Filter can also provide a
job-related only environment hence to increase the employee work efficiency. How can URL
Content Filter work better than traditional firewall in the field of filtering? Because it checks
the URL strings or some of HTTP data hiding in the payload of TCP packets while legacy
firewall inspects packets based on the fields of TCP/IP headers only.
On the other hand, Vigor router can prevent user from accidentally downloading malicious
codes from web pages. It’s very common that malicious codes conceal in the executable objects,
such as ActiveX, Java Applet, compressed files, and other executable files. Once downloading
these types of files from websites, you may risk bringing threat to your system. For example, an
ActiveX control object is usually used for providing interactive web feature. If malicious code
hides inside, it may occupy user’s system.

the DoS Defense setup. The DoS Defense functionality is disabled for default.
Click Firewall and click DoS Defense to open the setup page.
Enable Dos Defense Check the box to activate the DoS Defense Functionality.
Enable SYN flood
defense
Check the box to activate the SYN flood defense function. Once
detecting the Threshold of the TCP SYN packets from the Internet
has exceeded the defined value, the Vigor router will start to
randomly discard the subsequent TCP SYN packets for a period
defined in Timeout. The goal for this is prevent the TCP SYN
packets’ attempt to exhaust the limited-resource of Vigor router.
By default, the threshold and timeout values are set to 50 packets
per second and 10 seconds, respectively.
Enable UDP flood
defense
Check the box to activate the UDP flood defense function. Once
detecting the Threshold of the UDP packets from the Internet has
exceeded the defined value, the Vigor router will start to randomly
discard the subsequent UDP packets for a period defined in
Timeout. The default setting for threshold and timeout are 150
packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively.
Enable ICMP flood
defense
Check the box to activate the ICMP flood defense function. Similar
to the UDP flood defense function, once if the Threshold of ICMP
packets from Internet has exceeded the defined value, the router
will discard the ICMP echo requests coming from the Internet. The
default setting for threshold and timeout are 50 packets per second

Check the box to activate the Port Scan detection. Whenever
detecting this malicious exploration behavior by monitoring the
port-scanning Threshold rate, the Vigor router will send out a
warning. By default, the Vigor router sets the threshold as 150
packets per second.
Block IP options Check the box to activate the Block IP options function. The Vigor
router will ignore any IP packets with IP option field in the datagram
header. The reason for limitation is IP option appears to be a
vulnerability of the security for the LAN because it will carry
significant information, such as security, TCC (closed user group)
parameters, a series of Internet addresses, routing messages...etc. An
eavesdropper outside might learn the details of your private
networks.
Block Land Check the box to enforce the Vigor router to defense the Land attacks.
The Land attack combines the SYN attack technology with IP
spoofing. A Land attack occurs when an attacker sends spoofed SYN
packets with the identical source and destination addresses, as well as
the port number to victims.
Block Smurf Check the box to activate the Block Smurf function. The Vigor router
will ignore any broadcasting ICMP echo request.
Block trace router Check the box to enforce the Vigor router not to forward any trace
route packets.
Block SYN fragment Check the box to activate the Block SYN fragment function. The
Vigor router will drop any packets having SYN flag and more
fragment bit set.
Block Fraggle Attack Check the box to activate the Block fraggle Attack function. Any
broadcast UDP packets received from the Internet is blocked.
Activating the DoS/DDoS defense functionality might block some
legal packets. For example, when you activate the fraggle attack
defense, all broadcast UDP packets coming from the Internet are
blocked. Therefore, the RIP packets from the Internet might be
dropped.
Block TCP flag scan Check the box to activate the Block TCP flag scan function. Any TCP
packet with anomaly flag setting is dropped. Those scanning activities
include no flag scan, FIN without ACK scan, SYN FINscan, Xmas
scan and full Xmas scan.
Block Tear Drop Check the box to activate the Block Tear Drop function. Many
machines may crash when receiving ICMP datagrams (packets) that
exceed the maximum length. To avoid this type of attack, the Vigor
router is designed to be capable of discarding any fragmented ICMP
packets with a length greater than 1024 octets.
Block Ping of Death Check the box to activate the Block Ping of Death function. This
attack involves the perpetrator sending overlapping packets to the
target hosts so that those target hosts will hang once they
re-construct the packets. The Vigor routers will block any packets
realizing this attacking activity.
Block ICMP Fragment Check the box to activate the Block ICMP fragment function. Any
ICMP packets with more fragment bit set are dropped.

Block Land
Check the box to enforce the Vigor router to defense the Land
attacks. The Land attack combines the SYN attack technology with
IP spoofing. A Land attack occurs when an attacker sends spoofed
SYN packets with the identical source and destination addresses, as
well as the port number to victims.
Block Unknown
Protocol
Check the box to activate the Block Unknown Protocol function.
Individual IP packet has a protocol field in the datagram header to
indicate the protocol type running over the upper layer. However,
the protocol types greater than 100 are reserved and undefined at
this time. Therefore, the router should have ability to detect and
reject this kind of packets.
Warning Messages We provide Syslog function for user to retrieve message from Vigor
router. The user, as a Syslog Server, shall receive the report sending
from Vigor router which is a Syslog Client. (Refer to Chapter 13
System Maintenance Syslog Access Setup for detail information.)
All the warning messages related to DoS defense will be sent to user

Based on the list of user defined keywords, the URL Content Filter facility in Vigor router
inspects the URL string in every outgoing HTTP request. No matter the URL string is found
full or partial matched with a keyword, the Vigor router will block the associated HTTP
connection.
For example, if you add key words such as “sex”, Vigor router will limit web access to web
sites or web pages such as “www.sex.com”, ”www.backdoor.net/images/sex/p_386.html”. Or
you may simply specify the full or partial URL such as “www.sex.com” or “sex.com”.

Keyword The Vigor router provides 8 frames for users to define keywords and
each frame supports multiple keywords. The keyword could be a
noun, a partial noun, or a complete URL string. Multiple keywords
within a frame are separated by space, comma, or semicolon. In
addition, the maximal length of each frame is 32-character long.
After specifying keywords, the Vigor router will decline the
connection request to the website whose URL string matched to any
user-defined keyword. It should be noticed that the more simplified
the blocking keyword list, the more efficiently the Vigor router
perform.
Prevent web access

The ISP often provides you with a dynamic IP address when you connect to the Internet via
your ISP. It means that the public IP address assigned to your router changes each time you
access the Internet. The Dynamic DNS feature lets you assign a domain name to a dynamic
WAN IP address. It allows the router to update its online WAN IP address mappings on the
specified Dynamic DNS server. Once the router is online, you will be able to use the
registered domain name to access the router or internal virtual servers from the Internet. It is
particularly helpful if you host a web server, FTP server, or other server behind the router.
Before you use the Dynamic DNS feature, you have to apply for free DDNS service to the
DDNS service providers. The router provides up to three accounts from three different DDNS
service providers. Basically, Vigor routers are compatible with the DDNS services supplied by
most popular DDNS service providers such as www.dyndns.org, www.no-ip.com,
www.dtdns.com, www.changeip.com, www.dynamic- nameserver.com. You should visit
their websites to register your own domain name for the router.
Enable the Function and Add a Dynamic DNS Account
1. Assume you have a registered domain name from the DDNS provider, say
hostname.dyndns.org, and an account with username: test and password: test.
2. In the DDNS setup menu, check Enable Dynamic DNS Setup.

The Vigor router has a built-in real time clock which can update itself manually or
automatically by means of Network Time Protocols (NTP). As a result, you can not only
schedule the router to dialup to the Internet at a specified time, but also restrict Internet access
to certain hours so that users can connect to the Internet only during certain hours, say,
business hours. The schedule is also applicable to other functions.
You have to set your time before set schedule. In System Maintenance>> Time Setup menu,
press Inquire Time button to set the Vigor router’s clock to current time of your PC. The
clock will reset once if you power down or reset the router. There is another way to set up time.
You can inquiry an NTP server (a time server) on the Internet to synchronize the router’s
clock. This method can only be applied when the WAN connection has been built up.
You can set up to 15 schedules. Then you can apply them to your Internet Access.
To add a schedule, please click any index, say Index No. 1. The detailed settings of the call
schedule with index 1 are shown below.
Enable Schedule Setup Check to enable the schedule.
Start Date (yyyy-mm-dd) Specify the starting date of the schedule.
Start Time (hh:mm) Specify the starting time of the schedule.
Duration Time (hh:mm) Specify the duration (or period) for the schedule.
Page 50
Vigor110 User’s Guide

Action Specify which action Call Schedule should apply during the
period of the schedule.
Force On -Force the connection to be always on.
Force Down -Force the connection to be always down.
Enable Dial-On-Demand -Specify the connection to be
dial-on-demand and the value of idle timeout should be
specified in Idle Timeout field.
Disable Dial-On-Demand -Specify the connection to be up
when it has traffic on the line. Once there is no traffic over idle
timeout, the connection will be down and never up again during
the schedule.
Idle Timeout Specify the duration (or period) for the schedule.
How often -Specify how often the schedule will be applied
Once -The schedule will be applied just once
Weekdays -Specify which days in one week should perform the
schedule.
Example
Suppose you want to control the PPPoE Internet access connection to be always on (Force On)
from 9:00 to 18:00 for whole week. Other time the Internet access connection should be
disconnected (Force Down).
Office
Hour:
(Force On)
Mon - Sun 9:00 am to 6:00 pm
1. Make sure the PPPoE connection and Time Setup is working properly.
2. Configure the PPPoE always on from 9:00 to 18:00 for whole week.
3. Configure the Force Down from 18:00 to next day 9:00 for whole week.
4. Assign these two profiles to the PPPoE Internet access profile. Now, the PPPoE Internet
connection will follow the schedule order to perform Force On or Force Down action
according to the time plan that has been pre-defined in the schedule profiles.

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol is supported to bring to network connected
devices the ease of installation and configuration which is already available for directly
connected PC peripherals with the existing Windows 'Plug and Play' system. For NAT routers,
the major feature of UPnP on the router is “NAT Traversal”. This enables applications inside
the firewall to automatically open the ports that they need to pass through a router. It is more
reliable than requiring a router to work out by itself which ports need to be opened. Further,
the user does not have to manually set up port mappings or a DMZ. UPnP is available on
Windows XP and the router provides the associated support for MSN Messenger to allow full
use of the voice, video and messaging features.
Enable UPNP Service Accordingly, you can enable either the Connection Control
Service or Connection Status Service.
After setting Enable UPNP Service setting, an icon of IP Broadband Connection on Router
on Windows XP/Network Connections will appear. The connection status and control status
will be able to be activated. The NAT Traversal of UPnP enables the multimedia features of
your applications to operate. This has to manually set up port mappings or use other similar
methods. The screenshots below show examples of this facility.
The UPnP facility on the router enables UPnP aware applications such as MSN Messenger to
discover what are behind a NAT router. The application will also learn the external IP address
and configure port mappings on the router. Subsequently, such a facility forwards packets from
the external ports of the router to the internal ports used by the application.
Page 52
Vigor110 User’s Guide
48
The reminder as regards concern about Firewall and UPnP:
Can't work with Firewall Software
Enabling firewall applications on your PC may cause the UPnP function not working
properly. This is because these applications will block the accessing ability of some
network ports.
Security Considerations
Activating the UPnP function on your network may incur some security threats. You
should consider carefully these risks before activating the UPnP function.
¾ Some Microsoft operating systems have found out the UPnP weaknesses and
hence you need to ensure that you have applied the latest service packs and
patches.
¾ Non-privileged users can control some router functions, including removing and
adding port mappings.
The UPnP function dynamically adds port mappings on behalf of some UPnP-aware
applications. When the applications terminate abnormally, these mappings may not be
removed.

IGMP is the abbreviation of Internet Group Management Protocol. It is a communication

multicast groups. For invoking IGMP Snooping function, you have to check the
Enable IGMP Proxy box first for activating the IGMP proxy function.

Sometimes, a wrong connection can be improved by returning to the default settings. Try to
reset the router by software or hardware.
Warning: After pressing factory default setting, you will loose all settings
you did before. Make sure you have recorded all useful settings before you
pressing. The password of factory default is null.
