Chapter 1
Introduction

1.1 Introducing the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router

Thank you for purchasing the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router. Your new router is an

all-in-one unit that combines an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet network switch to

provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet

over an ADSL broadband connection.

The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router complies with ADSL2+ standards for deployment

worldwide and supports downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1

Mbps. Designed for small office, home office and residential users, the router enables even

faster Internet connections. You can enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia

applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier

and faster than ever before.

The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point

Protocol) over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or

routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with

your ISP. Your new router also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.

The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet

connection, the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router allows multiple users to have high-speed

Internet access simultaneously.

Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by

outside users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address

Translation (NAT), it also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming

data packets are monitored and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block

internal users from accessing the Internet.

2

The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router provides two levels of security support. First, it

masks LAN IP addresses making them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is

much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Second, it can block

and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. To ensure that

games and other Internet applications run properly, you can open specific ports for outside

users to access internal services on your network.

The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow

multiple users to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set local

machines as a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the DHCP

server and reboot. Each time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it and

assigns an IP address to instantly connect it to the

LAN.

For advanced users, Virtual Service (port forwarding) functions allow the product to provide

limited visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. You can set an

ISP (Internet Service Provider) provided IP address on the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP

Router and then you can reroute specific services to individual computers on your local

network. For instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the

router and then incoming requests for web pages that are received by the router can be

rerouted to your dedicated local web server, even though the server now has a different IP

address.

Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you can

set the router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same

Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from hackers.

1.2 Features

Express Internet Access – ADSL2/2+ capable

The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router complies with ADSL worldwide standards.

Supporting downstream rates of 8Mbps with ADSL, the router is capable of up to 12/24

Mbps with ADSL2/2+, and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Users enjoy not only high-speed

ADSL services but also broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming,

video streaming and real-time audio which are easier and faster than ever. The router is

compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.hs (ITU

G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); and G.dmt.bisplus (ITU G.992.5)

Voice over IP compliance with SIP standard

The router supports cost-effective, toll-quality voice calls over the Internet. It complies with

the most popular industrial standard, SIP protocol, to ensure the interoperability with SIP

devices and major VoIP Gateways. The VoIP ADSL router supports call waiting, silence

suppression, voice activity detection (VAD), comfort noise generation (CNG), line echo

cancellation, caller ID (Bell 202, V3) and so on.

802.11g Wireless AP with WPA/WPA2 Support (Wireless G router only)

With integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and

easy access among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection (ADSL)

with single device simplicity, and as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 54 Mbps

802.11g data rate, it also interoperates backward with existing 802.11b equipment. The

Wireless Protected Access (WPA) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) supported

features enhance the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN.

Fast Ethernet Switch

A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built-in with automatic switching between MDI

and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports, with auto detection allowing you to use

either straight or cross-over Ethernet cables.

Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection

The router supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483

encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516) and IPoA

(RFC1577) to establish a connection with an ISP. The router also supports VC-based and

LLC-based multiplexing.

Quick Installation Wizard

A web-based GUI and quick installation wizard help you easily install the VoIP/802.11g

ADSL2+ Router. Enter your ISP’s information and begin browsing the Internet immediately.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal

4

This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices

and PCs from many different vendors, and it makes setting up a network simple and

affordable. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity

networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this

feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net Meeting or MSN Messenger.

Network Address Translation

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such

as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many

application layer gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet,

E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.

Firewall

NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the

Internet, like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB and IGMP.

Domain Name System Relay

Domain Name System (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a

user-friendly name such as www.level1.com with an IP address. When a local machine sets

its DNS server to the router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC

to this router is forwarded to the real DNS on the outside network.

Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)

The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname.

This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. To use the service, you must first apply for

an account from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/.

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router provides an embedded PPPoE client function to

establish a connection. You get greater access speed without changing the operation

concept, while sharing the same ISP account and paying for one access account. No

PPPoE client software is required for the local computer. Automatic Reconnect and

Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.

Quality of Service (QoS)

QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority

by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or

management information move through the router ay lightning speed, even under heavy

load. The QoS features are configurable by source IP address, destination IP address,

protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass

through the router, to ensure P2P users don’t saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing

doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change

5

the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

Virtual Server:

You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The router detects an incoming

service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For example, you

can assign a PC in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the outside network.

Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ

host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the outside Internet network.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server

On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider

(ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP

addresses, including subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local

computers. This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.

Rich Packet Filtering

This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering

packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.

Web-based GUI

A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. User-friendly and with on-line

help, it also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and

manage this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

You can upgrade the router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI.

2.5 Cabling

One of the most common causes of problems is bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that

all connected devices are turned on. On the front of the product is a bank of LEDs. Verify that

the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify that you are using the proper

cables.

Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your LevelOne router

(e.g. telephones, fax machines, analog modems) have a line filter connected between them

and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a

qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and

the right way around. Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can

cause problems with your ADSL connection, including frequent disconnections.

Chapter 3
Installation

You can configure the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router through the convenient and

user-friendly interface of a web browser. Most popular operating systems such as Linux and

Windows 98SE/2000/XP include a web browser as a standard application.

3.1 Before Configuration

PCs must have a properly installed Ethernet interface and connect to the router directly or

through an external repeater hub. In addition, PCs must have TCP/IP installed and

configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be

in the same subnet as the router. The default IP address of the router is 192.168.1.254 and

the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC must be in the same subnet, and

have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253). The easiest way is to

configure the PC to obtain an IP address automatically from the router using DHCP. If you

encounter any problems accessing the router’s web interface you are advised to uninstall

any kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the

192.168.1.254 IP address of the router.

Please follow the steps below for installation on your PC’s network environment. First of all,

check your PC’s network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network

adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating

system manuals.

Note

Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through the

VoIP/(802.11g) ADSL2+ Router. To configure other types of workstations, please consult the

4.3.1.1 Ethernet

The router supports two Ethernet IP addresses in the LAN, and two different LAN subnets

through which you can access the Internet at the same time. Users usually only have one

subnet in their LAN, so there is no need to configure a Secondary IP address. The default IP

address for the router is 192.168.1.254.

RIP: RIP v1, RIP v2, RIP v1+v2 and RIP v2 Multicast.

The Subnet mask of the Secondary IP Address depends on the setting

of the Primary IP Address.

32

4.3.1.2 Wireless

Mode: 802.11b + g (Mixed mode), 802.11b and 802.11g. The factory default is 802.11b +

g.

ESSID: Enter the unique ID given to the Access Point (AP), which is already built-in to the

router’s wireless interface. To connect to this device, your wireless clients must have the

same ESSID as the device.

Regulation Domain: There are five Regulation Domains for you to choose from,

including North America (N.America), Europe, France, etc. The Channel ID will be

different based on this setting.

Channel ID: Select the ID channel that you would like to use.

MAC Address: The AP’s MAC Address

AP Version: The Access Point firmware version.

Wireless Distribution System (WDS)

It is a wireless access point mode that enables wireless link and communication with other

access point. It is easy to be installed simply define peer’s MAC address of the connected

AP. WDS takes advantages of cost saving and flexibility which no extra wireless client

device is required to bridge between two access points and extending an existing wired or

wireless infrastructure network to create a larger network.

33

In addition, WDS enhances its link connection security in WEP mode, WEP key encryption

must be the same for both access points.

WDS Service: The default setting is Disable. Check Enable radio button to activate this

function.

Peer WDS MAC Address: It is the associated AP’s MAC Address. It is important that

your peer’s AP must include your MAC address in order to acknowledge and communicate

with each other. (Note: For MAC Address, Semicolon ( : ) must be included)

4.3.1.3 Wireless Security

You can disable or enable with WPA or WEP for protecting wireless network.

The default mode of wireless security is disabled.

WPA Pre-Shared Key

WPA Algorithms: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) utilizes a stronger encryption

method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against

hackers.

WPA Shared Key: The key for network authentication. The input format is in character

style and key size should be in the range between 8 and 63 characters.

Group Key Renewal: The period of renewal time for changing the security key

automatically between wireless client and Access Point (AP).

Hide ESSID: User can select Enable or Disable to hide ESSID.

34

WPA2 Pre-Shared Key

WPA2 Algorithms: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) utilizes a stronger encryption

method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against

hackers.

WPA2 Shared Key: The key for network authentication. The input format is in character

style and key size should be in the range between 8 and 63 characters.

Group Key Renewal: The period of renewal time for changing the security key

automatically between wireless client and Access Point (AP).

WEP

WEP Encryption: To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data

transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as WEP.

If you require high security for transmissions, there are two alternatives to select from: WEP

64 and WEP 128. WEP 128 will offer increased security over WEP 64.

35

Passphrase: This is used to generate WEP keys automatically based upon the input

string and a pre-defined algorithm in WEP64 or WEP128. You can input the same string in

both the AP and Client card settings to generate the same WEP keys. Please note that you

do not have to enter Key (1-4) as below when the Passphrase is enabled..

Key (1-4): Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data transmission,

the WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the same as the router.

There are four keys for your selection. The input format is in HEX style, 5 and 13 HEX codes

are required for WEP64 and WEP128 respectively, the separator is “-“. For example, using

WEP64, 11-22-33-44-55 is a valid key, whilst 1122334455 is invalid.

Hide ESSID: User can select Enable or Disable to hide ESSID.

36

4.3.1.4 DHCP Server

You can disable or enable the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or

enable the router’s DHCP relay functions. The DHCP protocol allows your router to

dynamically assign IP addresses to PCs on your network if they are configured to obtain IP

addresses automatically.

To disable the router’s DHCP Server, check Disabled and click Next then click Apply.

When the DHCP Server is disabled you need to manually assign a fixed IP address to each

PC on your network, and set the default gateway for each PC to the IP address of the router

(the default is 192.168.1.254).

To configure the router’s DHCP Server, check DHCP Server and click Next. You can then

configure parameters of the DHCP Server including the IP pool (starting IP address and

ending IP address to be allocated to PCs on your network), lease time for each assigned IP

address (the period of time the IP address assigned will be valid), DNS IP address and the

gateway IP address. These details are sent to the DHCP client (i.e. your PC) when it

requests an IP address from the DHCP server. Click Apply to enable this function. If you

check “Use Router as a DNS Server”, the ADSL Router performs the domain name lookup,

37

finds the IP address from the outside network automatically and forwards it back to the

requesting PC in the LAN (your Local Area Network).

If you check DHCP Relay Agent and click Next then you must enter the IP address of the

DHCP server which assigns an IP address back to the DHCP client in the LAN. Use this

function only if advised to do so by your network administrator or ISP. Click Apply to enable

this function.

38

4.3.2 WAN (Wide Area Network)

A WAN (Wide Area Network) is an outside connection to another network or the Internet.

There are three items within the WAN section: ISP, DNS and ADSL.

4.3.2.1 ISP

The factory default is PPPoE. If your ISP uses this access protocol, click Edit to input other

parameters as below. If your ISP does not use PPPoE, you can change the default WAN

connection entry by clicking Change.

A simpler alternative is to select Quick Start from the main menu on the left. See the Quick

Start section of the manual for more information.

4.3.2.2 DNS

A Domain Name System (DNS) contains a mapping table for domain name and IP

addresses. On the Internet, every host has a unique and user-friendly name (domain name)

such as www.level1.com and an IP address. An IP address is a 32-bit number in the form of

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, for example 192.168.1.254. You can think of an IP address as a telephone

number for devices on the Internet, and the DNS allows you to find the telephone number for

any particular domain name. Since an IP Address is hard to remember, the DNS converts

the friendly name into its equivalent IP Address.

You can obtain a Domain Name System (DNS) IP address automatically if your ISP has

44

provided it when you logon. Usually when you choose PPPoE or PPPoA as your WAN - ISP

protocol, the ISP provides the DNS IP address automatically. You may leave the

configuration field blank. Alternatively, your ISP may provide you with an IP address of their

DNS. If this is the case, you must enter the DNS IP address.

If you choose one of the other protocols, RFC1483 Routed or Bridged, check with your ISP,

as it may provide you with an IP address for their DNS server. You must enter the DNS IP

address if you set the DNS Server address on your PC to the LAN IP address of this router.

4.3.2.3 ADSL

ADSL Mode: There are four modes for WBR-3470A “Open Annex Type and Follow

DSLAM’s Setting”, ”Annex A Only”, ”Annex L Only” and ”Annex M Only” that user can

select for this connection.

Note: For Annex B, There is only one operation mode as “Annex B”

Modulator: There are four modes “AUTO”,”ADSL multimode”,”ADSL2”and”ADSL2+”

that user can select for this connection.

Downstream: Downstream rate

45

4.3.3 System

There are six items within the System section: Time Zone, Remote Access, Firmware

Upgrade, Backup/Restore, Restart and User Management.

4.3.3.1 Time Zone

The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network

Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server outside your network.

Choose your local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button. After a successful

connection to the Internet, the router retrieves the correct local time from the SNTP server

you have specified. If you prefer to specify an SNTP server other than those in the

drop-down list, simply enter its IP address as shown above. Your ISP may provide an SNTP

server for you to use.

Resync Period (in minutes) is the periodic interval the router waits before it resynchronizes

the router’s time with that of the specified SNTP server. To avoid unnecessarily increasing

the load on your specified SNTP server you should keep the poll interval as high as

possible – at the absolute minimum every few hours or even days.

46

4.3.3.2 Remote Access

To temporarily permit remote administration of the router (i.e. from outside your LAN), select

a time period the router permits remote access for and click Enable. You may change other

configuration options for the web administration interface using Device Management

options in the Advanced section of the GUI.

4.3.3.3 Firmware Upgrade

Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its

functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software

it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified. Your router allows you to

upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes.

Clicking on Browse allows you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded

to your PC. Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the firmware in your

router.

Restart Router with: To choose “Factory Default Setting” or “Current Settings” that

user want.

New Firmware Image: Type in the location of the file you wish to upload in this field or

click Browse ... to find it.

Browse...: Click Browse... to find the .afw file you wish to upload. Remember that you

must decompress compressed (.zip) files before you can upload them.

47

Upgrade: Click upgrade to begin the upload process. This process may take up to two

minutes.

DO NOT power down the router or interrupt the firmware upgrade while it

is still in process. Improper operation may damage the router. Please see

section 2.4 for emergency recovery procedures.

4.3.3.4 Backup / Restore

These functions allow you to save and backup your router’s current settings to a file on your

PC, or to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment with

different settings, knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes. It is

advisable to backup your router’s settings before making any significant changes to your

router’s configuration.

Press Backup to select where on your local PC to save the settings file. You may also

change the name of the file when saving if you wish to keep multiple backups.

Press Browse to select a file from your PC to restore. You should only restore settings files

that have been generated by the Backup function, and that were created when using the

current version of the router’s firmware. Settings files saved to your PC should not be

manually edited in any way.

Select the settings files you wish to use, and press Restore to load those settings into the

router.

48

4.3.3.5 Restart Router

Click Restart with option Current Settings to reboot your router and restore your last saved

configuration.

If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a

firmware upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default
Settings to reset to factory default settings.

You may also reset your router to factory settings by pressing in the small Reset pinhole

button on the back of your router for 10-12 seconds while the router is turned on.

4.3.3.6 User Management

To prevent unauthorized access to your router’s configuration interface, all users are

required to login with a password. You can set up multiple user accounts, each with their own

password.

You are able to Edit existing users and Create new users who are able to access the

device’s configuration interface. Once you have clicked on Edit, you are shown the following

options:

49

You can change the user’s password, whether their account is active and Valid, as well as

add a comment to each user account. These options are the same when creating a user

account, with the exception that once created you cannot change the username. You cannot

delete the default admin account; however you can delete any other created accounts by

clicking Cancel when editing the user.

You are strongly advised to change the password on the default “admin” account when you

receive your router, and any time you reset your configuration to Factory Defaults.

50

4.3.4 Firewall

Firewall and Access Control

Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet

access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this,

when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet

firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly

accessed from the Internet. See the WAN configuration section for more details on NAT.

Firewall: Prevents access from outside your network. The router provides three levels of

security support:

NAT natural firewall: This masks LAN users’ IP addresses, which are invisible to outside

users on the Internet, making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your

network. This natural firewall is on when the NAT function is enabled.

When using Virtual Servers (port forwarding) your PCs are exposed to the

degree specified in your Virtual Server settings provided the ports specified

are opened in your firewall packet filter settings.

Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules

prevent unauthorized computers or applications accessing your local network from the

Internet.

Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent, and log malicious

attacks.

MAC Filter rules: Prevents unauthorized computers accessing the Internet.

URL Filter: Blocks PCs on your local network from unwanted websites.

A detailed explanation of each of the following five items appears in the Firewall section

below: Packet Filter, MAC Address Filter, Intrusion detection, Block WAN Request and

URL Filter.

51

4.3.4.1 Packet Filter

Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specified internal/external

users (IP address) from Internet access, or you can disable specific service requests (Port

number) to /from Internet. This configuration program allows you to set up to 6 different filter

rules for different users based on their IP addresses or their network Port number. The

relationship among all filters is “or” operation, which means that the router checks these

different filter rules one by one, starting from the first rule. As long as one of the rules is

satisfied, the specified action is taken.

Add: Click this button to add a new packet filter rule and the next figure appears.

Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit, and then click “Edit”.

Delete: Check the Rule No. you wish to delete, and then click “Delete”.

Application: User can choose they want.

~ Outgoing ~ Incoming: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for

52

incoming packets.

Active: Choose “Yes” to enable the rule, or choose “No” to disable the rule.

Packet Type: Specify the packet type (TCP, UDP, ICMP or any) that the rule applies to.

Select TCP if you wish to search for the connection-based application service on the remote

server using the port number. Or select UDP if you want to search for the connectionless

application service on the remote server using the port number.

Log: Choose “Yes” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to a packet.

Action When Matched: If a packet matches this filter rule, Forward or Drop this packet.

Source IP Address: Enter the incoming or outgoing packet’s source IP address(es).

Source Port: Check the TCP or UDP packet’s source port number(s).

Destination IP Address: Enter the incoming or outgoing packet’s destination IP

address(es).

Destination Port: Check the TCP or UDP packet’s destination port number(s).

Schedule time: User can setup the time to use the packet filter.

If the DHCP server option is enabled, you must be very careful in assigning

IP addresses of a filtered private IP range to avoid conflicts because you do

not know which PC in the LAN is assigned which IP address. The easiest

Attention

and safest way is that the filtered IP address is assigned to a specific PC

that is not allowed to access an outside resource such as the Internet. You

configure the filtered IP address manually for this PC, but it stays in the

same subnet with the router.

53

4.3.4.2 Ethernet MAC Filter

A Ethernet MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identifier

for each PC on your network’s interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card).

Using your router’s MAC Address Filter function, you can configure the switch to only accept

traffic from specified machines, or else to block specific machines from accessing your LAN.

There are no pre-defined MAC address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your

requirements.

Active: Select Yes from the drop down list box to enable MAC address filtering.

Action When Matched: Select “Drop” or “Forward”.

Log: Choose “Yes” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to a packet.

MAC Address: Enter the MAC addresses you wish to manage.

Candidates: it automatically detects devices connected to the router through the

Ethernet.

54

55

4.3.4.3 Wireless MAC Filter

The MAC Address supports up to 30 wireless network machines and helps you to manage

your network control to accept traffic from specific authorized machines or to restrict

unwanted machine(s) to access your LAN.

There are no pre-define MAC Address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your

requirements

Active: Select Yes from the drop down list box to enable MAC address filtering.

Action When Matched: Select “Drop” or “Forward”.

Log: Choose “Yes” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to a packet.

MAC Address: Enter the MAC addresses you wish to manage.

Candidates: it automatically detects devices connected to the router through the

Ethernet.

56

4.3.4.4 Intrusion Detection

Check “Enable” if you wish to detect intruders accessing your computer without permission.

The router automatically detects and blocks a DoS (Denial of Service) attack if a user

enables this function. This kind of attack is not to access confidential data on the network;

instead, it aims to disrupt specific equipment or the entire network. If this happens, users are

not able to access network resources.

Intrusion Detection: Check “Enable” if you wish to detect intruders accessing your

computer without permission.

Alert Mail: Select this check box to use Alert Mail.

Alert Mail Time: Set the time for receiving Alert mail.

Your E-Mail: Set your email address.

Recipient’s E-mail: Set the Recipient’s email address to which the E-<mail notification is

sent.

SMTP server: Set the SMTP (mail) server address.

57

4.3.4.5 Block WAN Request

Check “Enable” if you wish to exclude outside PING requests from reaching this router.

4.3.4.6 URL Filter

URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.level1.com or

http://www.example.com) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from

accessing particular websites from their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you

can add filter rules to meet your requirements.

Active: Select Yes from the drop down list box to enable or disable the URL Filter feature.

58

Always Block: Select to always check URL filter rules (i.e. at all hours of the day).

Block from: Specify the time period to check URL filter rules (e.g. during work hours).

Keywords Filtering: Allows blocking by specific keywords within a particular URL rather

than having to specify a complete URL (e.g. to block any image called “advertisement.gif”).

When enabled, your specified keywords list is checked to see if any keywords are present in

URLs accessed to determine if the connection attempt should be blocked. Note that the URL

filter blocks web browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only.

For example, the URL http://www.abc.com/abcde.html would be dropped since the keyword

“abcde” occurs in the URL.

Domains Filtering: Checks the domain name in URLs accessed against your list of

domains to block or allow. If it matches, the URL request is sent (Trusted) or dropped

(Forbidden). The checking procedure is:

1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection

attempt is sent to the remote web server.

2. If not, it is checked with the forbidden list. If present, the connection attempt is dropped.

3. If the packet matches neither of the above, it is sent to the remote web server.

4. Please note that only the domain is specified, not the full URL. For example to block

traffic to www.sex.com, enter “sex” or “sex.com” instead of “www.sex.com”. In the

example below, the URL request for www.abc.com is sent to the remote web server

because it is listed in the trusted list, while the URL request for www.sex or www.sex.com

is dropped because sex.com is in the forbidden list.

59

Restrict URL Features

~ Block Java Applet: Blocks Web content which includes the Java Applet to prevent

someone who wants to damage your system via the standard HTTP protocol.

~ Block ActiveX: Blocks ActiveX

~ Block Cookies: Blocks Cookies

~ Block Proxy: Blocks Proxy

60

4.3.5 QoS (Quality of Service)

Quality of Service Introduction

If you’ve ever found your ‘net’ speed has slowed to a crawl because another family member

is using a P2P file sharing program, you’ll understand why the Quality of Service features in

LevelOne’s routers is such a breakthrough for home users and office users.

QoS: Keeping Your Net Connection Fast and Responsive

Configurable by source IP address, destination IP address, protocol, and port, the Quality of

Service (QoS) gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given

priority by the router, ensuring bandwidth-consumption data like gaming packets,

latency-sensitive application like voice, or even mission critical files, move through the router

at lightning speed, even under heavy load. You can throttle the speed at which different

types of outgoing data pass through the router. In addition, you can simply change the

priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

QoS Setup

Please choose the QoS in the Configuration item of the left window as depicted below.

After clicking the QoS item, you can Add/Edit/Delete a QoS policy. This page will show the

brief information for policies you have added or edited. This page will also display the total

available (Non-assigned) bandwidth, in percentage, can be assigned.

61

Application: A name that identifies an existing policy.

Time Schedule: Scheduling your QoS policy to be applied.

Direction: The traffic flow direction to be controlled by the QoS policy.

There are two settings to be provided in the Router:

~ LAN to WAN: You want to control the traffic flow from the local network to the outside

world. E.g., you have a FTP server inside the local network and you want to have a limited

traffic rate controlled by the QoS policy. So, you need to add a policy with LAN to WAN

direction setting.

~ WAN to LAN: Control Traffic flow from the WAN to LAN. The connection maybe either

issued from LAN to WAN or WAN to LAN.)

Assigned Bandwidth Ratio: This field shows the assigned bandwidth ratio in

percentage for a QOS policy. If WAN connection to internet is established, the estimated

transfer rate will be shown in kbps. You may specify a fixed transfer rate or Minimum

Guaranteed Rate with priority for non-used bandwidth.

Non-Assigned Bandwidth Ratio: This field shows the available bandwidth ratio, for LAN to

WAN and WAN to LAN, that has not yet assigned.

: Press this button to add a new QoS policy.

: Before using these buttons to edit or delete a policy, please select one policy

62

you want to edit/delete from the radio option .

: After you have configured the policies, you can press this button to apply the

configuration. If you want to make the change persistent in flash, choose

in the left windows to save it into flash.

When you press or buttons described above, the following page will show up in

your browser. You can use it to define a QoS policy.

Controlled Traffic Flow: Specify the traffic flow you want to control. For GRE protocol,

there is no need to specify the IP addresses or Application ports in this page. For other

protocols, at least one value shall be given.

Packet type: The packet type will be controlled. For GRE protocol, there is no need to

specify the IP addresses or Application ports in this page. For other protocols, at least one

value shall be given.

~ ANY: No specified protocol type is specified.

~ TCP

~ UDP

~ ICMP

~ GRE: For PPTP VPN Connections.

Assigned Data rate: Assign the data ratio for this policy to be controlled. For examples,

63

we want to only allow 20% of the total data transfer rate for the LAN-to-WAN direction to be

used for FTP server. Then we can specify here with data ratio = 20. If you have ADSL LINE

with 256K/bps.rate, the estimated data rate, in kbps, for this rule is 20%*256*0.9 = 46kbps.

(For 0.9 is an estimated factor for the effective data transfer rate for a ADSL LINE from LAN

to WAN. For WAN-to-LAN, it is 0.85 to 0.8).

Data Ratio: percentage for the data rate to be controlled by this policy. As above FTP

server examples, it is 20.

Rate Type: We provide 2 types here:.

~ Fixed (Maximum): specify a fixed data rate for this policy. It also is the maximal rate for

this policy. As above FTP server example, you may want to “throttle” the outgoing FTP

speed to 20% of 256K and limit to it, you may use this type.

~ Guaranteed (Minimum): specify a minimal data rate for this policy. For example, you

want to provide a guaranteed data rate for your outside customers to access your internal

FTP server with, say at least, 20% of your total bandwidth. You can use this type. Then, if

there is available bandwidth that is not used, it will be given to this policy by following priority

assignment.

Priority for Non-used Bandwidth: Specify the priority for the bandwidth that is not used.

For examples, you may specify two different QoS policies for different applications. Both

applications need a minimal bandwidth and need more bandwidth, beside the assigned one,

4.3.6 Virtual Server

In TCP/IP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application

program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have

numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers

Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known

port assignments so clients can locate them.

If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from

other machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that

can accept incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant

messaging applications and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network

Address Translation), then you need to configure your router to forward these incoming

connection attempts using specific ports to the PC on your network running the application.

You also need to use port forwarding if you wish to host an online game server.

The reason is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address is used by and

points to your router, which needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by

your PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for information on NAT.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the central coordinator for the

assignment of unique parameter values for Internet protocols. Port numbers range from 0 to

65535, but only port numbers 0 to 1023 are reserved for privileged services and are

designated as “well-known ports”. The registered ports are numbered from 1024 through

49151. The remaining ports, referred to as dynamic ports, or private ports, are numbered

from 49152 through 65535.

Examples of well-known and registered port numbers are shown below, for further

information, please see IANA’s website at: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers

For help on determining which private port numbers are used by common applications on

this list, please see the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) at: http://www.level1.com

Item: Item number

Type: Select TCP if you wish to search for connection-based application services on the

remote server using the port number.

Port Start & Port End: Enter the public port number & range you wish to configure.

IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which requests from the

specified port is forwarded.

Add: Click to add a new virtual server rule. Click again and the next figure appears.

Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit and then click “Edit”.

74

Delete: Check the Rule No. you wish to delete, then click “Delete”.

Item: Item number

Service select: Select the service you wish to configure

Protocol: Automatic when you choose Service select

Start Port & End Port: Enter the public port number & range you wish to configure.

IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which requests from the

specified port is forwarded.

Since NAT acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from access

by outside users, as all incoming connection attempts point to your router unless you

specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network.

When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server,

FTP server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”. You can set

up a local server with a specific port number for the service to use, e.g. web/HTTP (port 80),

FTP (port 21), Telnet (port 23), SMTP (port 25), or POP3 (port 110). When an incoming

access request to the router for a specified port is received, it is forwarded to the

corresponding internal server.

For example, if you set the port number 80 (Web/HTTP) to be mapped to the IP Address

192.168.1.2, then all incoming HTTP requests from outside users are forwarded to the local

server (PC) with the IP address of 192.168.1.2. If the port is not listed as a predefined

application, you need to add it manually.

75

In addition to specifying the port number used, you also need to specify the protocol used.

The protocol is determined by the particular application. Most applications use TCP or UDP,

however you can specify other protocols using the drop-down Protocol menu. Setting the

protocol to “all” causes all incoming connection attempts using all protocols on all port

numbers to be forwarded to the specified IP address.

DMZ: The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular

internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets are checked by the Firewall and

NAT algorithms, then passed to the DMZ host when a packet received does not use a port

number in use by any other Virtual Server entries.

Using port forwarding does have security implications, since outside users

are able to connect to PCs on your network. For this reason you are

advised to use specific Virtual Server entries just for the ports your

Attention

Attention

application requires instead of simply using DMZ or creating a Virtual

Server entry for “All” protocols, as doing so results in all connection

attempts to your public IP address accessing the specified PC.

If you disable the NAT option in the WAN-ISP section, the Virtual Server

function becomes invalid.

If the DHCP server option is enabled, you have to be very careful in

assigning the IP addresses of the virtual servers in order to avoid conflicts.

The easiest way of configuring Virtual Servers is to manually assign a

static IP address to each virtual server PC, with an address that does not

fall into the range of IP addresses that are issued by the DHCP server. You

can configure the virtual server IP address manually, but it must still be in

the same subnet as the router.

76

4.3.7 Advanced

Configuration options within the Advanced section are for users who wish to take

advantage of the more advanced features of the router. Users who do not understand the

features should not attempt to reconfigure their router, unless advised to do so by support

staff.

There are six items within the Advanced section: Static Route, Dynamic DNS, VLan

Control, Device Management. IGMP and WAN IP Change Albert.

4.3.7.1 Static Route

Click on Routing Table and then choose Create Route to add a routing table.

Destination: The destination subnet IP address.

Netmask: Subnet mask of the destination IP addresses based on above destination.

Gateway: The gateway IP address to which packets are forwarded.

Interface: Select the interface through which packets are forwarded.

Cost: Represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be

precise, but it must be between 0 and 65535.

77

4.3.7.2 Dynamic DNS

The Dynamic DNS function lets you alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, so if

your ISP does not assign you a static IP address you can still use a domain name. This is

especially useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishing to

connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP

address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address

of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.

You first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using

their website, for example http://www.dyndns.org/

There are more than 5 DDNS services supported.

Disable: Check to disable the Dynamic DNS function.

Enable: Check to enable the Dynamic DNS function. The fields following are activated

and required.

Dynamic DNS Server: Select the DDNS service you have established an account with.

Host: Enter one domain name you have registered.

Domain Name, Username and Password: Enter your registered domain name and

your username and password for this service.

Period: Set the time period between updates, for the router to exchange information with

the DDNS server. In addition to updating periodically as per your settings, the router

performs an update when your dynamic IP address changes.

Wildcard: Select this check box to enable the DYNDNS Wildcard.

78

4.3.7.3 VLAN Control

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices on different physical LAN segments

that can communicate with each other as if they were all on the same physical LAN segment.

While clients and servers may be located anywhere on a network, they are grouped together

by VLAN technology, and broadcasts are sent to devices within the VLAN.

VLAN Group Name: There are eight groups that user can setup by themselves.

VLAN ID: Group name ID

LAN Tagging: Tagging VLAN ID to the specific VLAN group for Ethernet interface.

Ethernet port: Port name of Router

Link VLAN Group to WAN connection Interface: Select the WAN connection interface

that user want to link.

VLAN function provides you a very convenient way to manage hosts by grouping them

based on the physical port. Please refer to the following example.

1. If VLAN Group 1 is consisted of hosts linked to port1 and port2, VLAN Group 2 is

consisted of hosts linked port3 and port4, and VLAN Group 3 is consisted wireless LAN.

2. After checking the box to enable VLAN function, you will check the table according to the

needs as show below.

79

80

4.3.7.4 Device Management

The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router’s

security options and device monitoring features.

Embedded Web Server:

HTTP Port: The port number of the router’s embedded web server (for web-based

configuration uses. The default value is the standard HTTP port, 80. You may specify an

alternative if, for example, you are running a web server on a PC within your LAN.

For Example: User A changes HTTP port number to 100, specifies their own IP address of

192.168.1.55, and sets the logout time to be 100 seconds. The router only allows User A

access from the IP address 192.168.1.55 to logon to the Web GUI by typing:

http://192.168.1.254:100 in their web browser. After 100 seconds, the device automatically

logs out User A.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP):

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along

with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users

running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks

such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings,

removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device.

81

Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in

addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support UPnP (when the

component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing

client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.

~ Disable: Check to disable the router’s UPnP functionality.

~ Enable: Check to enable the router’s UPnP functionality.

UPnP Port: The default setting is 2800. It is highly recommended that you use this port

value. If the value conflicts with other ports already in use you may wish to change the port.

4.3.8.5 Dialing plan

This router build-in a local dialing table. When this router does not register to the server user

still could make the call by dialing the number. This dialing table could dial to remote SIP

device, remote IAX device or local PSTN. It could store up to 100 records totally.

Prefix: Numbers defined in this field will be inserted at the beginning of the dialing pattern.

Maximum input length is 6 digits.

Min.: Minimum digits user can key in.

Max. : Maximum digits user can key in.

Del.: Number of digit defined in this field will be removed from the dialing pattern. For

example, if we dialed 81352109378 and the delete digit is 2, then the actual dialed number is

352109378. First 2 digits are removed. Maximum delete digit is 3 digits.

Add: Numbers in this field are added at the beginning of the dialing pattern. For example,

if 001 is in this field, the number dialed is 001+the rest of the numbers. The input length is

limited to 6 digits.

Remote IP: Remote side gateway IP addresses. When the prefix number is matched,

this call will go to the gateway with this IP address.

Protocol: Choose the dialing plan for SIP, IAX or PSTN

[Insert]: Insert a record where the current record is located (Current record is marked as

different color).

[Append]: Add a new record to the bottom of the list.
