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 the ADSL router. There are
four Ethernet clients and one USB client on the LAN interface.
74
Page 83
Chapter 4: Web Configuration
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
forward the multicast traffic to all hosts connecting to this router and consequently
block and interrupt the traffic of the other users who do not want to receive the
multicast service, 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 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.
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 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.

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

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.

Virtual Server – Port Forwarding
The Router implements NAT to make your entire local network appear as a single
machine to the Internet. The typical situation is that you have local servers for
different services and you want to make them publicly accessible. With NAT applied,
it will translate the internal IP addresses of these servers to a single IP address that
is unique on the Internet. NAT function not only eliminates the need for multiple
public IP addresses but also provides a measure of security for your LAN.
When the router receives an incoming IP packet requ esting for accessing your local
server, the router will recognize the service type according to the port number in this
packet (e.g., port 80 indicates HTTP service and port 21 indicates FTP service). By
specifying the port number, the router knows which service should be forwarded to
the local IP address that you specified.
After setting the virtual server, you should modify the filter rule about the port and
service information which you set on the virtual server. Because the firewall protects
the router by the filter rule, you should update the filter rule after you set up the
virtual server.
Virtual Server function allows you to make servers on your LAN accessible to
Internet users. Normally, Internet users would not be able to access a server on your
LAN because:
Your server does not have a valid external IP Address.
Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this
device.
The Virtual Server feature solves these problems and allows Internet users to
connect to your servers, as illustrated below:
IP Address seen by Internet Users
Once configured, anyone on the Internet can connect to your Virtual Servers.
Please note that, in the above picture, both Internet users are connecting to the
same IP address, but using different protocols, such as Http://203.70.212.52 and
Ftp://203.70.212.52.
To Internet users, all virtual servers on your LAN have the same IP Address. This IP
Address is allocated by your ISP. This address should be static, rather than dynamic,
to make it easier for Internet users to connect to your Servers. However, you can
use Dynamic DNS feature to allow users to connect to your virtual servers by using
a URL, instead of an IP address.
83
Page 92
ADSL Router User Manual
IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private
IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port
number), the router redirects the external service request to the appropriate serve r
(located at another internal IP address).
Add New Port Forwarding

Virtual Server – DMZ Host
In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or small
network inserted as a "neutral zone" between a company's private network and the
outside public network. It prevents outside users from getting direct access to a
server that has company data. A DMZ is an optional and more secure approach to a
firewall and effectively acts as a proxy server as well.
To close the function of DMZ Host,
please click Discarded. To activate a DMZ host, please click
Forwarded to the DMZ host radio button, and enter the IP Address of DMZ host.
Click Apply.
Once this feature is enabled, you must specify an IP address. It allows unrestricted
2-way communication between the specified IP address and other Internet users or
Servers.
This allows almost any application to be used on the specified IP address.
The specified IP address will receive all “Unknown” connections an d data.
The DMZ feature only works when the NAT function is enabled.

Firewall
The firewall is a kind of software that interrupts the data between the Internet and
your computer. It is the TCP/IP equivalent of a security gate at the entrance to your
company. All data must pass through it, and the firewall (function s as a security
guard) will allow only authorized data to be passed into the LAN.
What the firewall can do? It can:
deny or permit any packet from passing through explicitly
distinguish between various interfaces and match on the following fields:
source and destination IP address  port
To keep track of the performance of IP Filter, a logging device is used. The device
supports logging of the TCP/UDP and IP packet headers and the first 129 bytes of
the packet (including headers) whenever a packet is su ccessfully passed through or
blocked, and whenever a packet matches a rule being setup for suspicious packets.
An example for firewall setup:
This picture shows the most common and easiest way to employ the firewall.
Basically, you can install a packet-filtering router at the Internet gateway and then
configures the filter rule in the router to block or filter protocols and addresses. The
systems behind the router usually have a direct access to the Internet; however
some dangerous services such as NIS and NFS are usually blocked.
For the security of your router, set the firewall is an important issue.
Firewall – IP Filtering
This page allows you to specify the IP packet filtering rules to prevent the se rvices accessed from the Internet hosts or limit the Internet access for local hosts.

Allow Traffic:
Choose No to stop the data
transmission, Yes to permit the data
pass through.
Protocol:
Here provides several default policies
for security levels for you to choose. If
you don’t want to use the predefined
setting, you can use User Defined to
set a customized protocol according to
the necessity.
When you choose User Defined
setting, you have to enter a port
number in the “as” field.
Source/Destination IP address:
To specify IP address to allow or deny
data transmission, please pull down
the drop-down menu to choose a
proper one.
Chapter 4: Web Configuration
The setting All means that all the IP
addressed in the network are allowed
or denied to pass through in Internet.
If you choose Single, you will have to
key in the specific IP address as the
start/end point to let the router identify
for granting or denying passing
through.
If you choose Subnet, you will have to
enter the specific IP address and
netmask as the start/end point to let
the router identify for granting or
denying passing through.
Port Range:
The port range is from 0 to 65535.
Please key in the start point and end
point for the IP Filtering.
After finish the settings, click Apply.
Here provides an example shown in
the right column. Select TCP as the
Protocol type, and make the Source
and Destination IP address to
include All, then type 0 and 65535 as
the start and end port.

Source IP/ Subnet Mask/ Port:
Key in the source IP address (ex.:
192.168.1.0) and subnet mask (ex.:
255.255.255.0) for the application (ex.:
FTP, HTTP, and so on) that you want
to invoke the QoS traffic rule. You may
simply enter the source port, ranging
from 0 to 65535, as the traffic condition.
Destination IP/ Subnet Mask/ Port:
Enter the destination IP address (ex.: 168.95.1.88) and subnet mask (ex.:255.255.255.0) for the application that you want to invoke the QoS traffic rule. Or simply enter the destination port for the traffic condition; it ranges from 1 to 65535.
Traffic Priority/ IP Precedence/ IP type of Service: Please refer to
Bridge QoS. After you click Apply, the new QoS
setting will be shown as the graphic on the right side.
According to the example, we set four rules for IP QoS. In traffic A, we set 1-1024 as the destination port, and the traffic priority is low; in traffic B, the source port is from 201 to 8000, and the priority is medium; in traffic C, when the source IP is 192.168.1.0, subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the traffic priority is high; in traffic D, when the traffic is heading to 168.95.1.88, the priority is high.
To delete the rules you set, simply click the check button below Delete item and click Delete button.
According to our example, the IP QoS configuration can be illustrated by the following figure.
While there are many PCs getting online, the PCs using port 201-8000 to access the internet will have medium traffic priority, the PCs carrying 192.168.1.x/
255.255.255.0 as IP address will have high traffic priority. In addition, PCs heading to port 1-1024 will have a low priority, while the PCs accessing 168.95.1.88 will have a high priority.
