A-1 CVM Application - How to manage the CPE (router) through Vigor2926 series?. 544
A-2 CVM Application - How to build the VPN between remote devices and Vigor 2926
Vigor2926 series integrates IP layer QoS, NAT session/bandwidth management to help users
control works well with large bandwidth.
By adopting hardware-based VPN platform and hardware encryption of AES/DES/3DES, the
router increases the performance of VPN greatly, and offers several protocols (such as
IPSec/PPTP/L2TP) with VPN tunnels.
The object-based design used in SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall allows users to set
firewall policy with ease. CSM (Content Security Management) provides users control and
management in IM (Instant Messenger) and P2P (Peer to Peer) more efficiency than before. By
the way, DoS/DDoS prevention and URL/Web content filter strengthen the security outside
and control inside. Object-based firewall is flexible and allows your network be safe.
User Management implemented on your router firmware can allow you to prevent any
computer from accessing your Internet connection without a username or password. You can
also allocate time budgets to your employees within office network.
With the 6-port Gigabit switch on the LAN side provides extremely high speed connectivity for
the highest speed local data transfer of any server or local PCs. The tagged VLANs
(IEEE802.1Q) can mark data with a VLAN identifier. This identifier can be carried through an
onward Ethernet switch to specific ports. The specific VLAN clients can al so pick up this
identifier as it is just passed to the LAN. You can set the priorities for LAN-side QoS. You can
assign each of VLANs to each of the different IP subnets that the router may also be operating,
to provide even more isolation. The said functionality is tag-based Multi-subnet
(Multiple-Private LAN Subnets).
On the Wireless-equipped models (Vigor2926n/n-plus/Vn/Vn-plus/ac/Vac) each of the
wireless SSIDs can also be grouped within one of the VLANs.
In addition, Vigor2926 series supports USB interface for c onnecting USB printer to share
printing function or 3G USB modem for network connection.
Vigor2926 series provides two-level management to simplify the configuration of network
connection. The user mode allows user accessing into WEB interfa ce via simple configuration .
However, if users want to have advanced configurations, they can access into WEB interface
through admin mode.

It means wide area network. Public IP will be used in
WAN.
It means local area network. Private IP will be used in
LAN. 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.
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.

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:
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 the host PCs can share a common Internet connection.
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
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.
For 3G/4G mobile communication through Access Point is popular more and more, Vigor2926
adds the function of 3G/4G network connection for such purpose. By connecting 3G USB
Modem to the USB port of Vigor2926, it can support HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE/GPRS/GSM and the
future 3G/4G standard (HSUPA, etc). Vigor2926n with 3G/4G USB Modem allows you to
receive 3G signals at any place such as your car or certain location holding outdoor activity
and share the bandwidth for using by more people. Users can use four LAN ports on the router
to access Internet. Also, they can access Internet via 802.11n wireless function of Vigor2926n,
and enjoy the powerful firewall, bandwidth management, VPN features of Vigor2926n series.

After connecting into the router, 3G/4G USB Modem will be regarded as the third WAN port.
However, the original WAN1 and WAN2 still can be used and Load-Balance can be done in the
router. Besides, 3G/4G USB Modem in WAN3 also can be used as backup device. Therefore,
when WAN1 and WAN2 are not available, the router will use 3.5G for supporting automatically.
The supported 3G/4G USB Modem will be listed on DrayTek web site. Please visit

During the procedure of IPv4 PPPoE connection, we can get the IPv6 Link Local Address
between the gateway and Vigor router through IPv6CP. Later, use DHCPv6 or accept RA to
acquire the IPv6 prefix address (such as: 2001:B010:7300:200::/64) offered by the ISP. In
addition, PCs under LAN also can have the public IPv6 address for Internet access by means of
the generated prefix.
No need to type any other information for PPP mode.

RIPng Protocol RIPng (RIP next generation) offers the same functions and
benefits as IPv4 RIP v2.
Below shows an example for successful IPv6 connection based on PPP mode.
Tunnel setup protocol client (TSPC) is an application which could help you to connect to IPv6
network easily.
Please make sure your IPv4 WAN connection is OK and apply one free account from hexago
(http://gogonet.gogo6.com/page/freenet6-account ) before you try to use TSPC for network
connection. TSPC would connect to tunnel broker and requests a tunnel according to the
specifications inside the configuration file. It gets a public IPv6 IP address and an IPv6 prefix
from the tunnel broker and then monitors the state of the tunnel in background.
After getting the IPv6 prefix and starting router advertisement daemon (RADVD), the PC
behind this router can directly connect to IPv6 the Internet.
At present, the IPv6 prefix can be acquired via the PPPoE mode connection which is
available for the areas such as Taiwan (hinet), the Netherlands, Australia and UK.
This type allows you to setup 6in4 Static Tunnel for WAN interface.
Such mode allows the router to access IPv6 network through IPv4 network.
However, 6in4 offers a prefix outside of 2002::0/16. So, you can u se a f ixed endpoint rather
than anycast endpoint. The mode has more reliability.
