CHAPTER 1
Introducing the VSG1432-B101
1.1 Overview
The VSG1432-B101 is a wireless VDSL router and Gigabit Ethernet gatewa y . It has
a DSL port and a Gigabit Ethernet port for super-fast Internet access over analog
(POTS) telephone lines. The ZyXEL Device supports both Packet Transfer Mode
(PTM) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). It is backward compatible with
ADSL, ADSL2 and ADSL2+ in case VDSL is not available.
Only use firmware for your ZyXEL Device’s specific model. Refer
to the label on the bottom of your ZyXEL Device.
The ZyXEL Device has a a USB port used to share files via a USB memory stick or
a USB hard drive.
See Chapter 35 on page 315 for a full list of features.
1.2 Ways to Manage the ZyXEL Device
Use any of the following methods to manage the ZyXEL Device.
• Web Configur ator. This is recommended for everyday management of the ZyXEL
Device using a (supported) web browser.
• TR-069. This is an auto-configuration server used to remotely configure your
device.
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the ZyXEL Device
Do the following things regularly to make the ZyXEL Device more secure and to
manage the ZyXEL Device 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.
VSG1432-B101 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introducing the VSG1432-B101
• 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 y our password, you will hav e to reset the
ZyXEL Device to its factory default settings . If yo u backed up an earlier
configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the ZyXEL Device.
You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the ZyXEL Device
Here are some example uses for which the ZyXEL Device is well suited.
1.4.1 Internet Access
Your ZyXEL Device provides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to
the DSL or MODEM jack on a splitter or your telephone jack. You can have up to
five WAN services over one ADSL, VDSL or Ethernet WAN line. The ZyXEL Device
cannot work in ADSL, VDSL and Ethernet WAN mode at the same time.
Note: The ADSL, VDSL and Ethernet WAN lines share the same five WAN (layer-2)
interfaces that you configure in the ZyXEL Device. Refer to Section 6 .2 on page
77 for the Network Settings> Broadband screen.

You can also configure IP filtering on the Z yXEL Devi ce for secure Internet access.
When the IP filter is on, all incoming traffic from the Internet to your network is
blocked by default unless it is initiated from y our network. This means that probes
from the outside to your network are not allowed, but you can safely browse the
Internet and download files.
