The Vigor2100 Series router includes Vigor2100G ,Vigor2100V and Vigor2100VG models. To secure your network, the Vigor2100 series provides an advanced firewall with advanced

features, such as NAT with multi VPN pass-through, Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) to offer network reliability by detecting and prohibiting malicious penetrating packets or DoS attacks, user-configurable web filtering for parental control against network abuse etc.

For G series model, it is embedded with an 802.11g compliant wireless module which provides wireless LAN access with data rate as much as (up to 54Mbps for Vigor2100G/VG).

For V series model, with VoIP phone ports, it provides an Internet access solution for your LAN via shared web surfing and countless value-added features, such as Firewall, Security and VoIP. These are all in a reliable one-box solution. The V series model has a “Line” port on the rear panel for connecting to a PSTN (regular analogue) line. The Loop Through option can be used to set an alternate telephone number for your contact on the PSTN, which the Vigor2100V series will dial instead of the SIP account if you lose ADSL access or power to the Vigor2100V series. Hence, the PSTN line can act as a lifeline (backup mechanism) for VoIP calls. The lifeline mechanism is activated automatically but can also be manually configured.

In the Quick Start Wizard, you can configure the router to access the Internet with different protocol/modes such as PPPoE, PPPTP, Static IP or DHCP. The router supports the Ethernet WAN interface for Internet access.

PPPPPPooEE

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.

PPPoE is used for most of DSL modem users. All local users can share one PPPoE 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 connection, please select PPPoE 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

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.

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 the menu items of Internet Access.

33..11..22 PPPPPPooEE

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 Multiplexer (SDLAM).

To choose PPPoE as the accessing protocol of the internet, please select PPPoE from the

Internet Access menu. The following web page will be shown.

PPPoE Link Click Enable for activating this function. If you click Disable, this

function will be closed and all the settings that you adjusted in this

page will be invalid. ISP Access Setup Enter your allocated username, password and authentication

parameters according to the information provided by your ISP. If

you want to connect to Internet all the time, you can check Always

On.

ISP Name – Type in the ISP Name provided by ISP in this field.

Username – Type in the username provided by ISP in this field.

Password – Type in the password provided by ISP in this field.

Scheduler -You can type in four sets of time schedule for your

request. All the schedules can be set previously in Application –

Schedule web page and you can use the number that you have set in

that web page. PPP/MP Setup PPP Authentication – Select PAP only or PAP or CHAP for PPP.

Always On – Check this box if you want the router keeping

connecting to Internet forever.

Idle Timeout – Set the timeout for breaking down the Internet after

passing through the time without any action. IPCP Usually ISP dynamically assigns IP address to you each time you

connect to it and request. In some case, your ISP provides service to

assign you the same IP address whenever you request. In this case,

you can fill in this IP address in the Fixed IP field. Please contact

your ISP before you want to use this function.

Vigor2100 Series User’s Guide

Fixed IP – Click Yes to use this function and type in a fixed IP

address in the box. WAN physical type Check and choose a proper type used for duplex between this device

and other router that you want to communicate. Both sides should

use the same physical type; otherwise, the connection might be
