About This Guide

Welcome

Congratulations on choosing the NHL-2342NF 4-port 10/100 LAN and 1-port fiber WAN 802.11n Wireless VoIP Gateway, the next generation in broadband service fiber to the home devices.

The NHL-2342NF Triple-Play VoIP Gateway allows users to play three types of content service on one device including high speed Internet (data), VoIP (voice), and Video on Demand/Video Conference/IPTV (video). Superior scalability and flexibility means broadband subscribers using the NHL-2342NF that only need partial content service, either data, voice, or video in the beginning, can easily allow ISPs to disable one service via remote setup and then enable service again when subscribers need it. Through this auto-provisioning feature, subscribers using the NHL-2342NF can change their content service at any time via remote on-line log in. The billing system will be adjusted automatically according to the changed service. Subscribers do not have to go to ISPs’ front desk to change their service in person thus saving both subscribers and ISPs significant time and cost.

Unlike unmanaged media converters and switches that leave all connected ports down when one port is down, the NHL-2342NF features port isolation to help prevent “one down all down” network operation disasters. The Triple-Play VoIP Gateway supports remote in-band management that helps ISPs manage their complex networks easily and reduce both CAPEX and OPEX significantly. With unpredictable operational issues occurring all the time in today’s broadband network, the NHL2342NF enables ISPs to offer increased network performance and subscriber satisfaction.

NAT

NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet. For example, the source address of an outgoing packet, used within one network is changed to a different IP address known within another network.

Each packet has two addresses – a source address and a destination address. For outgoing packets, NAT maps private (local) IP addresses to globally unique ones required for communication with hosts on other networks. It replaces the original IP source address in each packet and then forwards it to the Internet. The NHL2342NF keeps track of the original addresses and port numbers so incoming reply packets can have their original values restored.

General

The NAT window General tab allows users to configure NAT settings. Access this window by clicking Networking > NAT.

NAT window – General tab

The NAT window General tab contains the following parameters:

NAT Setup Network Address

Translation

Enable or Disable Network Address Translation (NAT). NAT allows the translation of an Internet protocol address used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a different IP address known within another network (for example a public IP address used on the Internet).

NAT Loopback

Enable or Disable NAT Loopback. NAT Loopback allows users on the LAN side to access a pubic server located on the LAN side by a public IP address or domain name.

SIP ALG

Enable or Disable SIP ALG. SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG) allows VoIP calls to pass through NAT by examining and translating IP addresses embedded in the data stream. When a VoIP device behind the NHL-2342NF registers with the SIP register server, the NHL-2342NF translates the device’s private IP address inside the SIP data stream to a public IP address.

RTSP ALG

Enable or Disable RTSP ALG. RTSP Application Level Gateway is designed to dynamically open pinholes for media streaming. When disabled, users are limited to static NAT

Port Forwarding

Port forwarding allows users to define the local servers to which incoming services will be forwarded by creating a firewall between the internal network and the Internet. A tunnel is created so that computers on the Internet can communicate to computers on a user’s LAN through a single port. This is useful for running Web servers, game servers, FTP servers, and video conferencing and is more secure than DMZ. A common example is one computer running a Web server on port 80 and another computer running an FTP server on port 23, each with the same IP address. Access this tab by clicking Networking > NAT > Port Forwarding.
