NTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the BarricadeTM g Voice ADSL Router, hereafter referred to as the “Barricade”. We are proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for connecting your local area network (LAN) to the Internet. For those who want to surf the Internet in the most secure way, this router provides a convenient and powerful solution. The VoIP Router also enables service providers to provide their residential and small office home office (SOHO) customers with high-quality VoIP service using traditional analog telephones and fax machines.

About the Barricade

The Barricade provides Internet access to multiple users by sharing a single-user account. Support is provided for both wired and wireless devices. This device also provides wireless security via Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption and MAC address filtering. It is simple to configure and can be up and running in minutes.

VoIP (Voice over IP)

Using Voice over IP (VoIP), instead of making calls over the regular telephone network, calls are made over computer (IP) networks, either through your Internet Service Provider’s connection or through your local network. Calls made to another Internet telephone, anywhere in the world, are generally free, while calls made to a regular telephone are generally much cheaper than traditional long distance calls. The basic steps involved in VoIP include the conversion of an analog voice signal to digital, the

I
NTRODUCTION
encoding and then compression of the signal into Internet Protocol (IP) packets. The VoIP Router is equipped with a digital signal processor (DSP), which segments the voice signal into frames and stores them in voice packets. These packets are encoded using the industry standard CODECs, G.711, G.723.3 and G.729.

Features and Benefits

Applications

Many advanced networking features are provided by the Barricade:
Wireless and Wired LAN
The Barricade provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps devices, and wireless IEEE 802.11b/g compatible devices, making it easy to create a network in small offices or homes.
Internet Access
This device supports Internet access through an ADSL connection. Since many DSL providers use PPPoE or PPPoA to establish communications with end users, the Barricade includes built-in clients for these protocols, eliminating the need to install these services on your computer.
Shared IP Address
The Barricade provides Internet access for up to 253 users via a single shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple users on your network can access the Internet at the same time.
A
PPLICATIONS
•Virtual Server
If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the Barricade to act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote users access various services at your site using a constant IP address. Then, depending on the requested service (or port number), the Barricade can route the request to the appropriate server (at another internal IP address). This secures your network from direct attack by hackers, and provides more flexible management by allowing you to change internal IP addresses without affecting outside access to your network.
1-3
I
NTRODUCTION
DMZ Host Support
Allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the Internet. This function is used when NAT and firewall security prevent an Internet application from functioning correctly.
Security
The Barricade supports security features that deny Internet access to specified users, or filter all requests for specific services that the administrator does not want to serve. The Barricade’s firewall also blocks common hacker attacks, including IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack, TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding.
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
The Barricade supports three of the most commonly used VPN protocols — PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec. These protocols allow remote users to establish a secure connection to their corporate network. If your service provider supports VPNs, then these protocols can be used to create an authenticated and encrypted tunnel for passing secure data over the Internet (i.e., a traditionally shared data network). The VPN protocols supported by the Barricade are briefly described below.
1-4
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol — Provides a secure tunnel
for remote client access to a PPTP security gateway. PPTP includes provisions for call origination and flow control required by ISPs.
L2TP merges the best features of PPTP and L2F — Like PPTP,
L2TP requires that the ISP’s routers support the protocol.
IP Security — Provides IP network-layer encryption. IPSec can
support large encryption networks (such as the Internet) by using digital certificates for device authentication.

TCP/IP Configuration

To access the Internet through the Barricade, you must configure the network settings of the computers on your LAN to use the same IP subnet as the Barricade. The default IP settings for the Barricade are:
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Note: These settings can be changed to fit your network requirements,
but you must first configure at least one computer to access the Barricade’s web configuration interface in order to make the required changes. (See “Configuring the Voice ADSL Router” on page 4-1 for instruction on configuring the Barricade.)

Disable HTTP Proxy

You need to verify that the “HTTP Proxy” feature of your web browser is disabled. This is so that your browser can view the Barricade’s HTML configuration pages. See page 3-6 for details.

Obtain IP Settings from Your Barricade

Now that you have configured your computer to connect to your Barricade, it needs to obtain new network settings. By releasing old DHCP IP settings and renewing them with settings from your Barricade, you can verify that you have configured your computer correctly.
1. On the Windows desktop, click Start/Programs/
Accessories/Command Prompt.
2. In the Command Prompt window, type ipconfig /release and press the ENTER key.
