4.5 Forwarding Rules

4.5.1 Virtual Server

This product’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts
behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them
accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping.
A virtual serve r is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the
computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give
user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule.

29

For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.123.1, a Web server (port 80) at

192.168.123.2, and a VPN server at 192.168.123.6, then you need to specify the following virtual
server-mapping table:

Service Port Server IP Enable

21 192.168.123.1 V
80 192.168.123.2 V

1723 192.168.123.6 V

4.5.2 Special AP

Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet
telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router.
The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the
mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the
DMZ host instead.

1. Trigger: the outbound port number issued by the application.

2. Incoming Ports: when the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the specified

port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall.

This product provides some predefined settings Select your application and click Copy to to add the
predefined setting to your list.

Note! At any given time, only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel.

30

4.5.3 Miscellaneous Items

IP Address of DMZ Host

DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of firewall. It allows a computer to be
exposed to unrestricted 2-way communicati on fo r Int ernet games, Video conferencing, Internet
telephony and other special applications.

NOTE: This feature should be used only when needed.

Non-standard FTP port

You have to configure this item if you want to access an FTP server whose port number is not 21. This
setting will be lost after rebooting.

31

4.6 Security Settings

4.6.1 Packet Filter

Packet Filter enables you to control what packets are allowed to pass the router. Outbound filter applies
on all outbound packets. However, Inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or
DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies:

1. Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules

2. Deny all to pass except those match the specified rules

32

3. You can specify 8 rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define
the following:

• Source IP address

• Source port address

• Destination IP address

• Destination port address

• Protocol: TCP or UDP or both.

• Use Rule#

For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1) or a range of IP
addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty implies all IP addresses.
For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of por ts (1000-1999). Add
prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999. No prefix
indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. Packet Filter can work
with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to
Scheduling Rule.

Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually.

Inbound Filter:

To enable Inbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Inbound Packet Filter
field.

Suppose you have SMTP Server (25), POP Server (110), Web Server (80), FTP Server (21), and News
Server (119) defined in Virtual Server or DMZ Host.

33

Example 1:

(1.2.3.100-1.2.3.149) They are allow to send mail (port 25), receive mail (port 110), and browse the
Internet (port 80)

(1.2.3.10-1.2.3.20) They can do eve ry t hi n g ( bl oc k nothing)

Others are all blocked.

Example 2:

(1.2.3.100-1.2.3.119) They can do everything except read net news (port 119) and transfer files via FTP
(port 21)
Others are all allowed.

34

After Inbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button.

Outbound Filter:

To enable Outbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Outbound Packet

Filter field.

2. URL include “www.sina.com” will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file.

3. URL include “www.google.com” will be blocked, but the action will not be record in log-file.

4. IP address X.X.X.1~ X.X.X.20 can access network without restriction.

37

4.6.3 URL Blocking

URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites.

The major difference between “Domain filter” and “URL Blocking” is Domain filter require user to
input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a keyword only. In other
words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites
by simply a keyword.

URL Blocking Enable

Checked if you want to enable URL Blocking.

URL

If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the connection will be blocked.
For example, you can use pre-defined word "sex" to block all websites if their URLs contain
pre-defined word "sex".

Enable

Checked to enable each rule.

38

In this example:

1. URL include “msn” will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file.

2. URL include “sina” will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file

3. URL include “cnnsi” will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file.

4. URL include “espn” will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file

4.6.4 MAC Address Control

MAC Address Control allows you to assign different access right for different users and to assign a
specific IP address to a certain MAC address.

MAC Address Control Check “Enable” to enable the “MAC Address Control”. All of the

settings in this page will take effect only when “Enable” is checked.

Connection control Check "Connection control" to enable the controlling of which wired and

wireless clients can connect to this device. If a client is denied to connect

4.6.5 VPN setting

VPN Settings are settings that are used to create virtual private tunnels to remote VPN gateways. The
tunnel technology supports data confidentiality, data origin authentication and data integrity of network
information by utilizing encapsulation protocols, encryption algorithms, and hashing algorithms.

VPN enable item
VPN protects network information from ill network inspectors. But it greatly degrades network
throughput. Enable it when you really need a security tunnel. It is disabled for default.
Max. number of tunnels item
Since VPN greatly degrades network throughput, the allowable maximum number of tunnels is limited.
Be careful to set the value for allowing the number of tunnels can be created simultaneously. Its value
ranges from 1 to 5.
Tunnel name
Indicate that tunnel that is focused now.
Method
IPSec VPN supports two kinds of key-obtained methods: manual key and automatic key exchange.
Manual key approach indicates that two end VPN gateways setup authenticator and encryption key by
system managers manually. However, IKE approach will perform automatic Internet key exchange.
System managers of both end gateways only need set the same pre-shared key.

4. This device will send SNMP Trap message to 192.168.123.33 (Use SNMP Version V2c)

53

4.7.5 Routing Table

Routing Tables allow you to determine which physical interface address to use for outgoing IP data

grams. If you have more than one routers and subnets, you will need to enable routing table to allow
packets to find proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other.

Routing Table settings are settings used to setup the functions of static and dynamic routing.

Dynamic Routing

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) will exchange information about destinations for computing routes
throughout the network. Please select RIPv2 only if you have different subnet in your network.
Otherwise, please select RIPv1 if you need this protocol.

Static Routing: For static routing, you can specify up to 8 routing rules. You can enter the destination
IP address, subnet mask, and gateway, hop for each routing rule, and then enable or disable the rule by
checking or unchecking the Enable checkbox.

Example:

54

Configuration on NAT Router

Destination Subnet Mask Gateway Hop Enabled

192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.123.216 1 ˇ

192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.123.103 1 ˇ

So if, for example, the client3 wanted to send an IP data gram to 192.168.0.2, it would use the above
table to determine that it had to go via 192.168.123.103 (a gateway),
And if it sends Packets to 192.168.1.11 will go via 192.168.123.216
Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually.
After routing table setting is configured, click the save button.

1. First, please go to the Network connection

2. Connect to network at my workplace

3. Choose Virtual Private Network

94

4. Do not dial to initial connection

Input the router WAN IP address

5. Then Next, please input username and password as you setup in the router.

Click on properties.

95

Select the type of VPN

However, you should add the Authentication Protocol in advanced (Custom
setting) of Security option, like below to support pap, chap, and mschap.
If successfully, we will see:
This time, the client in the Internet can ping any pcs in the LAN (192.168.123.x)

96

L2TP

However, the router is the also vpn-l2tp server and supports three Authentication
Protocols, PAP, CHAP and MSCPAP.

And the settings are similar with PPTP. But MS-operating systems, like WinXP

Win2000 will not find the type of VPN “L2tp”. We can use these files (disableipsec.zip) to
enable it.

http://support.iglou.com/fom-serve/cache/473.html

Then we will see L2tp IPSEC VPN and choose it:

Then the steps refer to pptp settings.
