To Set up WAN Service for ATM Interface

 EoA (PPPoE, IPoE and Bridge)

If you configured the ATM Interface (ADSL uplink) and select EoA as the DSL link type, follow below steps to configure the WAN service:

Page 31

PPPoE

IPv4 Only

Step 1: Click Advanced Setup > WAN Service and then click the Add button.

Step 2: Select the ATM interface you added just now from the pull-down menu in the figure below. Click Next.

Step 3: Select PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE). Edit the Enter Service Description field which is optional. Suggest you

keep the default. Select a network protocol: IPv4 Only. Click Next.

Page 32

Step 4: Finish PPP Username and Password and other settings on the figure below. Click Next.

PPP Username/Password: For logging in to your ISP. If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP to provide it. PPPoE Service Name: Provided by your ISP. Only enter it if instructed by your ISP. Authentication Method: Used by ISP to authenticate the client that attempts to connect. If you are not sure, consult your ISP or select AUTO. MAC Clone: When you cannot access the Internet after finishing other settings here except this option, consider

whether it’s the matter of the MAC address of your computer. Clicking Clone MAC button copies the MAC address of your computer to the router.

MTU: Keep the default value unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection. Dial on demand: Connect to ISP only when there is traffic transmission. This saves your broadband Internet service bill. PPP IP extension: If enabled, all the IP addresses in outgoing packets including management packets on the WAN port

will be changed to the device's WAN IP address. Only change the default settings if necessary.

Enable PPP Debug Mode: Only enable this feature if supported by your ISP. Bridge PPPoE Frames Between WAN and Local Ports: If enabled, PPPoE dialup frame from LAN side will directly

egress the WAN port without modification. Multicast Proxy: If enabled, the router will use multicast proxy.

KNOWLEDGE EXPANSION

1. MAC Clone: Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic only from the MAC address of your broadband modem, but some ISPs additionally register the MAC address of your computer when your account is first opened. If so, only by cloning the MAC address of your computer can you access the Internet through the router.

2. MTU: Short for Maximum Transmission Unit, the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes, which

Page 33

a network can transmit. Any messages larger than the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. The default MTU is 1460 bytes. For some ISPs, you might need to change the MTU. This is rarely required, and should not

be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection.

Step 5: To configure the Default Gateway interface, select the interface that you want to configure with the WAN gateway address in Available Routed WAN Interfaces box and move it into Selected Default Gateway Interfaces box. The default setting is recommended. Then click Next.

Step 6: To configure the WAN DNS address, click the Select DNS Server Interface from available WAN interfaces option, or select the Use the following Static DNS IP address option and enter the static DNS server IP addresses provided by your ISP. At last, click Next.

Page 34

Step 7: Here you can view your configurations. Click Apply/Save to save your settings if everything is correctly set.

When the PPPoE connection is successful, you can access the Internet.

IPv4 & IPv6 (Dual Stack)

Step 1: Click Advanced Setup > WAN Service and then click the Add button.

Step 2: Select the ATM interface you added just now from the pull-down menu in the figure below. Click Next.

Step 3: Select PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE). Edit the Enter Service Description field which is optional. Suggest you keep the default. Select a network protocol: IPv4&IPv6 (Dual Stack). Click Next.

Step 4: Configure PPP Username and Password and other settings on the figure below. Each field with its indication is mentioned above in IPv4 Only (PPPoE) section. Check Launch Dhcp6c for Prefix Delegation (IAPD). Click Next.

If your ISP is using static DHCPv6, check Launch Dhcp6c for Address Assignment (IANA) also, or configure a static

Page 36

IP address by checking Use Static IPv6 Address and enter the static IPv6 address.

Step 5: To configure the Default Gateway interface when using IPv6, select the interface that you want to configure with the WAN gateway address in Selected WAN Interface box. Then click Next.

Step 6: To configure the WAN DNS address, check the Obtain IPv6 DNS info from a WAN interface option, or select the Use the following Static IPv6 DNS address option to enter the static DNS server IPv6 addresses provided by your ISP. At last, click Next.

If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP to provide it. PPPoE Service Name: This information is provided by your ISP. Only enter it if instructed by your ISP. Authentication Method: This is used by ISP to authenticate the client that attempts to connect. If you are not sure, consult your ISP or select Auto. MAC Clone: Clicking Clone MAC button copies the MAC address of your PC to the router. Many broadband ISPs

restrict access by allowing traffic only from the MAC address of your broadband modem, but some ISPs additionally register the MAC address of the network interface card in your computer when your account is first opened. They then accept traffic only from the MAC address of that computer. If so, configure your router to “clone” the MAC address from the authorized computer. MTU: Short for Maximum Transmission Unit, the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes, which a network can transmit. Any messages larger than the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. The default MTU is 1460 bytes. For some ISPs, you might need to change the MTU. This is rarely required, and should not be done unless

you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection.

Dial on demand: Connect to ISP only when there is traffic transmission. This saves your broadband Internet service bill. PPP IP extension: If enabled, all the IP addresses in outgoing packets including management packets on the WAN port

will be changed to the device's WAN IP address. Only change the default settings if necessary.

Enable PPP Debug Mode: Only enable this feature if supported by your ISP. Bridge PPPoE Frames Between WAN and Local Ports: If enabled, PPPoE dialup frame from LAN side will directly

4. In the Server IP Address field, enter the last digit of the IP address of your local computer that offers this service.

Here in this example, we enter 110.

5. Click .

Now you can view your configurations as seen in the screenshot below. Your friends on the Internet will then be able to access the web server simply by entering "http://183.37.227.201:8080" in his browser.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

NOTE

1. The "Internal Port End" cannot be modified directly. Normally, it is set to the same value as "External Port End".

However, if you modify "Internal Port Start", then "Internal Port End" will be set to the same value as "Internal Port Start".

2. If the service or game you wish to host on your network is not included in the list, manually add it in the Custom

Service field and then add the port number used by it to the Internal Starting Port, Internal Ending Port, External Starting Port and External Ending Port fields.

Port Triggering

Some applications such as games, video conferencing, remote access applications and others require that specific ports in the Router's firewall be opened for access by the applications. Port Trigger dynamically opens up the 'Open Ports' in the firewall when an application on the LAN initiates a TCP/UDP connection to a remote party using the 'Triggering Ports'. The Router allows the remote party from the WAN side to establish new connections back to the application on the LAN side using the 'Open Ports'.

To enter the Port Triggering screen, click NAT > Port Triggering and then click the Add button to add rules. You can configure the port settings from this screen by selecting an existing application or creating your own (Custom application) and click Save/Apply to add it.

Use Interface: Select a WAN connection to which you wish to apply the rules. When there is only one WAN connection available, the rules will be automatically applied to it. Application Name: Two options are available: Select an application: Select one from the drop-down list directly.

- Custom application: Custom application by yourself.

Trigger Port Start/Trigger Port End: The port range for an application to initiate connections. Trigger Protocol: Select the protocol from the drop-down list. If you are unsure, select TCP/UDP. Open Port Start/ Open Port End: These are the starting number and ending number for the ports that will be

Page 91

automatically opened by the built-in firewall when connections initiated by an application are established.

DMZ Host

The default DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) host feature is helpful when you are using some online games and videoconferencing applications that are not compatible with NAT (Network Address Translation).

DMZ Host IP Address: The IP Address of the device for which the router’s firewall will be disabled. Be sure to assign a static IP Address to that device. The DMZ host should be connected to a LAN port of the device. Be sure to assign a static IP address to that DMZ host.

Warning!

DMZ servers pose a security risk. A computer designated as the DMZ server loses much of the protection of the firewall

and is exposed to exploits from the Internet.

UPnP

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows Windows based systems to configure the device for various Internet applications automatically. UPnP devices can automatically discover the services from other registered UPnP devices on the network. If you use applications such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, or real-time communications, like instant messaging or remote assistance (a feature in Windows XP), you should enable UPnP.

Page 92

Enable UPnP: Check/uncheck to enable/disable the UPnP feature.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

NOTE

UPnP is activated only when there is a live WAN service with NAT enabled.

4.2.8 Routing

This section explains the following:

• Default Gateway

• Static Route

Default Gateway

 Selected Default Gateway Interfaces: Displays the selected default gateway interfaces. Select a WAN interface

and click the button to move it to the Available Routed WAN Interfaces box.

Page 100

 Available Routed WAN Interfaces: Displays the available routed WAN interfaces. Select a WAN interface and

click the button to add it to the Selected Default Gateway Interfaces box.

 Apply/Save: Click to save and activate your settings.

Static Route

Static routes provide additional routing information to your router. Typically, you do not need to add static routes. However, when there are several routers in the network, you may want to set up static routing. Static routing determines the path of the data in your network. You can use this feature to allow users on different IP domains to access the Internet via this device. It is not recommended to use this setting unless you are familiar with static routing. In most cases, dynamic routing is recommended, because this feature allows the router to detect the physical changes of the network

layout automatically.

Click Add to enter the following screen:

 IP Version: Select IP version.  Destination IP address/prefix length: Enter the destination IP address and prefix length of the final destination.  Interface: Select an interface from the drop-down list.  Gateway IP address: Enter the gateway IP address, which must be a router on the same LAN segment as the
