Tips for Reading User’s Guides On-Screen
When reading a ZyXEL User’s Guide On-Screen, keep the following in mind:
• If you don’t already have the latest version of Adobe Reader, you can download it from http://www.adobe.com.
• Use the PDF’s bookmarks to quickly navigate to th e areas that interest you. Adobe Reader’s bookmarks pane opens by default in all ZyXEL User’s Guide PDFs.
• If you know the page number or know vaguely which page-range you want to view, you can enter a number in the toolbar in Reader, then press [ENTER] to jump directly to that page.
• Type [CTRL]+[F] to open the Adobe Reader search utility and enter a word or phrase. This can help you quickly pinpoint the information you require. You can also enter text directly into the toolbar in Reader.
• To quickly move around within a page, press the [SPACE] bar. This turns your cursor into a “hand” with which you can grab the page and move it around freely on your screen.
• Embedded hyperlinks are actually cross-references to related text. Click them to jump to the corresponding section of the User’s Guide PDF.

CHAPTER 1

Introducing the P-660HN-F1A

This chapter introduces the main applications and features of the P-660HN-F1A. It also introduces the ways you can manage the P-660HN-F1A.

1.1 Overview

The P-660HN-F1A is an ADSL2+ router. By integrating DSL and NAT, you are provided with ease of installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. The P­P-660HN-F1A is also a complete security solution with a robust firewall and content filtering.
Please refer to the following description of the product name format.
• “H” denotes an integrated 4-port hub (swi tc h).
• “N” denotes 802.11n draft 2.0. The “N” models support 802.11n wireless connection mode.
• Models ending in “1”, for example P-660HN-F1, denote a device that works over the analog telephone system, POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service). Models ending in “3” denote a device that works over ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) or T-ISDN (UR-2).
Only use firmware for your P-660HN-F1A’s specific model. Refer to the label on the bottom of your P-660HN-F1A.
Note: All screens displayed in this user’s guide are from the P-660HN-F1A model.
See the product specifications for a full list of features.

1.2 Ways to Manage the P-660HN-F1A

Use any of the following methods to manage the P-660HN-F1A.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the P­660HN-F1A using a (supported) web browser.
P-660HN-F1A User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introducing the P-660HN-F1A
• Command Line Interface. Line commands are mostly used for troubleshooting by service engineers.
• FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore.
• TR-069. This is an auto-configuration server used to remotely configure your device.
• TR-064. DSL CPE (acting as a gateway) installation and configuration through software on computers on the LAN.

1.3 Good Habits for Managing the P-660HN-F1A

Do the following things regularly to make the P-660HN-F1A more secure and to manage the P-660HN-F1A more effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the P-660HN-F1A to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the P-660HN-F1A. You could simply restore your last configuration.

1.4 Applications for the P-660HN-F1A

Here are some example uses for which the P-660HN-F1A is well suited.

P-660HN-F1A User’s Guide
1.4.1 Internet Access
Your P- 660HN-F1A pro vides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to the DSL or MODEM jack on a splitter or your telephone jack. Computers can connect to the P-660HN-F1A’s LAN ports (or wirelessly).

LAN
Chapter 1 Introducing the P-660HN-F1A
DSL
You can also configure firewall and content filtering on the P-660HN-F1A for secure Internet access. When the firewall is on, all incoming traffic from the Internet to your network is blocked unless it is initiated from your network. This means that probes from the outside to your network are not allowed, but you can safely browse the Internet and download files.
Use content filtering to block access to specific web sites, with URL’s containing keywords that you specify. You can define time periods and days during which content filtering is enabled and include or exclude particular computers on your network from content filtering. For example, you could bl ock access to certain web sites for the kids.
Use QoS to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving priority to certain types of traffic and/or to particular c omput ers. For example, you could make sure that the P-660HN-F1A gives voice over Internet calls high priority, and/or limit bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.
