Unnumbered IP over ATM (IPoA)+NAT

Description:

If you apply for multiple IP addresses from your ISP, you can assign these public IP addresses to the ADSL Router and public server, e.g., Web or FTP server. Typically the first IP is network address, the second is used as router IP address and the last one is subnet broadcasting. Other remaining IP addresses can be assigned to PCs on the LAN.
The following example uses the IP address ranging from 10.11.80.81 to 10.11.80.86 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.248. In such circumstance, we enable NAT function but not assign any WAN IP.

Configuration:

1. Start your browser and type 192.168.1.1 in the URL box to access ADSL web-based manager.
2. Go to Quick Start – Quick Setup. Uncheck Auto Scan Internet Connection

You can enable the UPnP function through this web page by checking
Enable UPnP and press Apply.

Local Network – IGMP Snooping

Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender to 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender to everyone on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to just a group of hosts on the network.
Without IGMP snooping, multicast traffic is treated in the same manner as broadcast traffic, that is, it is forwarded to all ports. With IGMP snooping, multicast traffic of a group is only forwarded to ports that have members of that group. IGMP snooping generates no additional network traffic, allowing you to significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your switch.
The figure below shows a simple network connected via this ADSL router. There are four Ethernet clients, one using USB, and two wireless clients.
82
Now suppose the video server is the multicast transmitter and host A and D are multicast receivers. If we do not turn on the IGMP snooping function, the router will
Chapter 4: Web Configuration
forward the multicast traffic to all hosts on all interfaces and consequently block and interrupt the traffic of USB and wireless users, shown as the following figure.
When IGMP snooping is invoked, it makes the system aware to establish the best path for multicast service to save LAN bandwidth. Refer the figure below, just as desired, only host A and D will actually receive multicast traffic when IGMP snooping is enabled.
While IGMP snooping is enabled, the IGMP packets will be monitored, the membership information will be recorded and processed, and the multicast traffic will only be forwarded to those LAN interfaces, such as Ethernet, Wireless, and USB, which are bonded to the subscribed multicast groups. Thus it helps to save the bandwidth and helps the devices to perform more effectively.
Check Enable IGMP Snooping and click Apply to invoke this function.
When IGMP Snooping is enabled, you can check the box below to filter out multicast packets which will be sent to your local network if no user plays multimedia movies.
If the PVC you’re using is NAT enabled, remember to turn on the IGMP Proxy at the same time. Please refer to Internet – IGMP Proxy for more information.
Note that the IGMP proxy must be enabled first. If the IGMP Snooping function is not available as shown in the following figure, you have to enable the IGMP Proxy first.

If you choose PPPoE (or Bridging), you will see the option for 802.1Q
VLAN T aggi ng.
802.1Q VLAN Tagging:
802.1Q-compliant switch ports can be configured to transmit tagged or untagged frames. A tag field containing VLAN (and/or 802.1p priority) information can be inserted into an Ethernet frame. If a port has an
802.1Q-compliant device attached (such as another switch), these tagged frames can carry VLAN membership information between switches, thus letting a VLAN span multiple switches. However, it is important for network administrators to ensure ports with non-802.1Q-compliant devices attached are configured to transmit untagged frames. Many NICs for PCs and printers are not 802.1Q-compliant. If they receive a tagged frame, they will not understand the VLAN tag and will drop the frame. Also, the maximum legal Ethernet frame size for tagged frames was increased in
802.1Q (and its companion, 802.3ac) from 1,518 to 1,522 bytes.
Chapter 4: Web Configuration
Notice that 802.1Q VLAN Tagging function can only be invoked under PPPoE and Bridging Mode; the system will not provide this option while setting PPPoA or IPoA mode.
After checking Enable 802.1Q VLAN
Tagging, you will have to enter a VLAN ID, as shown in the figure.
VLAN ID:
The VLAN Identifier is a 12 bit field. It uniquely identifies the VLAN to which the frame belongs to and can have a value between 0 and 4095.

Internet – IGMP Proxy

The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is an Internet protocol that provides a way for an Internet computer to report its multicast group membership to adjacent routers.
The hosts interact with the system through the exchange of IGMP messages. When you want to configure IGMP proxy, the system will interact with other routers through the exchange of IGMP messages. However, when acting as the proxy, the system performs the host portion of the IGMP task as follo ws:
¾ When being queried, the system will send membership reports to the group. ¾ When one of the hosts joins a multicast address group which none of other
hosts belongs to, the system will send unsolicited membership reports to that group.
¾ When the last host in a particular multicast group leaves the group, the system
will send a leave group membership report to the router’s group.
