ABOUT THE WIRELESS
BARRICADE™ G ROUTER
Congratulations on your purchase of the Wireless Barricade™ g
Broadband Router. SMC is proud to provide you with a powerful
yet simple communication device for connecting your local area
network (LAN) to the Internet.
Important Information!
This information is addressed to the DSL-Users without
a flat rate contract**.
With your DSL-router you have received a device of high quality,
which allows you fast and easy access to the Internet.
The factory default settings of this router have been done in
a way to provide you with uninterrupted access and use of the
Internet. With this background for cost reasons we recommend
that you enter into a "flat rate" - contract with your DSL-line
provider.
Why should you do that?
Please consider that a router, an entirely independent working
device, does not switch off automatically when shutting off your PC!
You may trigger such an automatic shut-off by setting a so called
"idle-time" (for details consult your manual at PPPoE or PPTP WAN
access configuration). Depending at the set time (1 to 5 min) the
router cuts the DSL-link when idle, indeed. But this still does not
provide for 100% security.
This disconnect only happens if there are no more open requests
received from either the LAN or the WAN side (here this can be
requests from the internet, i.e. initiated through the use of so
called file sharing programs like eMule, eDonkey, etc.) that
keep the router active.
1
Page 6
About the Wireless Barricade™ g Router
In order to counter such incalculable activity and protect yourself
from higher than expected on-line costs we therefore recommend
again a flat-rate contract for your DSL-connection. The only safe
alternative: Pull the plug! That is to disconnect your router from
the mains.
Please feel free to contact our SMC-hotline if you have further
questions.
** Flat-rate is an offer of your DSL-line provider, which gives you
timely unlimited access to the Internet at a defined (flat-) rate.

Verifying Your TCP/IP Connection
After installing the TCP/IP communication protocols and configuring
an IP address in the same network as the Wireless Barricade™,
use the Ping command to check if your computer has successfully
connected to the Wireless Barricade™. The following example
shows how the Ping procedure can be executed in an MS-DOS
window. First, execute the Ping command:
ping 192.168.2.1
If a message similar to the following appears:
Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.2.1: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64
a communication link between your computer and the Wireless
Barricade™ has been successfully established.
If you get the following message,
Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
there may be something wrong in your installation procedure.
Check the following items in sequence:
1. Is the Ethernet cable correctly connected between
the Wireless Barricade™ and the computer?
The LAN LED on the Wireless Barricade™ and
the Link LED of the network card on your computer
must be on.
2. Is TCP/IP properly configured on your computer?
If the IP address of the Wireless Barricade™ is 192.168.2.1,
the IP address of your PC must be from 192.168.2.2 -
192.168.2.254 and the default gateway must be 192.168.2.1.
If you can successfully Ping the Wireless Barricade™
you are now ready to connect to the Internet!

ZoneAlarm Pro® with Web Filtering Setup
Every PC connected to the Internet is a potential target. Even
a novice hacker can easily initiate tens of thousands of pings
and port scans per hour, scanning far and wide for unprotected
systems. Once hackers find your PC, they attempt to compromise
it and deposit malicious software such as remote-access Trojans,
spy-ware, viruses, or Internet worms.
Your Wireless Barricade™ now includes a new "Client Enforcement"
feature from Zone Labs, Inc. Client Enforcement provides end
to end security by ensuring that only protected endpoint PC’s have
access to the network. Simply configure your Wireless Barricade™
to restrict the network access of endpoint PCs that are not in
compliance with security requirements. This easy-to-use feature
allows you to ensure each of your PCs is safe from Trojan horse
and Spy-ware style attacks.
ZoneAlarm
®
Pro protects your PC from both known and unknown
threats with a combination of:
• Stealth firewall that protects each individual computer
in your network, and it travels with that computer wherever
it goes. Mobile endpoint protection is a must for traveling
laptops.
•
Program Control

to manage which applications are connecting
from sending your personal information out from your computer.
• MailSafe to identify and quarantine potentially harmful email
attachments (coming in and going out) to prevent e-mail viruses,
worms and Trojans disguised as attachments from getting
onto to your machine and mass-e-mail worms from sending
viruses out to the people in your address book. And

• ZoneAlarm Pro Security Level
The overhead for communication between the router and Zone
Alarm Pro with Web Filtering on your PCs is very minimal. The
communication packets are small and infrequent. However,
if you do feel it is causing a delay on your network, you have
some control over the frequency the packets are sent to
and from ZoneAlarm Pro and the Wireless Barricade™.
On the ZoneAlarm Pro (ZAP) Settings Panel on the Wireless
Barricade™, the ZAP Security Level option tells the Wireless
Barricade™ and ZoneAlarm Pro how often they should
communicate. This communication tells the Wireless
Barricade™ that ZoneAlarm Pro is still running on the PC.
If you set this option to High Security (Check Frequently), the
exchange will occur at smaller intervals. Though we feel this
should not impact your network performance, you do have the
option to select Medium Security (Check Less Frequently) to
increase the interval.

local site via public 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 Wireless Barricade™ redirects the external service
request to the appropriate server (located at another internal
IP address).
For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or
web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP
requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2
on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP Address provided
by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at
the local address to which you redirect them.
The more common TCP service ports include:
HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110
users accessing services such as web or FTP at your
