Troubleshooting
Before you begin
The Prestige is shipped with the following factory default:
1. IP address = 192.168.1.1, subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)
2. DHCP server enabled with IP pool starting from 192.168.1.33
3. Default SMT menu password = 1234
Setting up the PC (Windows OS)
1. Ethernet connection
All PCs must have an Ethernet adapter card installed.
If you only have one PC, connect the PC's Ethernet adapter to the Prestige's LAN port with a
crossover (red one) Ethernet cable.
If you have more than one PC, both the PC's Ethernet adapters and the Prestige's LAN port must
be connected to an external hub with straight Ethernet cable.
2. TCP/IP Installation
You must first install TCP/IP software on each PC before you can use it for Internet access. If you have already
installed TCP/IP, go to the next section to configure it; otherwise, follow these steps to install:
In the Control Panel/Network window, click Add button.

In the Select Network Component Type windows, select Protocol and click Add. In the Select Network Protocol windows, select Microsoft from the manufacturers, then select
TCP/IP from the Network Protocols and click OK.
3. TCP/IP Configuration
Follow these steps to configure Windows TCP/IP:
In the Control Panel/Network window, click the TCP/IP entry to select it and click Properties
button.
In the TCP/IP Properties window, select obtain an IP address automatically.
Note: Do not assign arbitrary IP address and subnet mask to your PCs, otherwise, you will not be able to access
the Internet.
Click the WINS configuration tab and select Disable WINS Resolution. Click the Gateway tab. Highlight any installed gateways and click the Remove button until there
are none listed.
Click the DNS Configuration tab and select Disable DNS. Click OK to save and close the TCP/IP properties window Click OK to close the Network window. You will be prompted to insert your Windows CD or disk.
When the drivers are updated, you will be asked if you want to restart the PC. Make sure your Prestige is powered on before answering Yes to the prompt. Repeat the above steps for each Windows PC on your network.
Setting up the Prestige router
The following procedure is for the most typical usage of the Prestige where you have a single-user account
(SUA). The Prestige supports embedded web server that allows you to use Web browser to configure it. Before
configuring the router using Browser please be sure there is no Telnet or Console login.
1. Retrieve Prestige Web
Please enter the LAN IP address of the Prestige router in the URL location to retrieve the web screen from the
Prestige. The default LAN IP of the Prestige is 192.168.1.1. See the example below. Note that you can either
use http://192.168.1.1
2. Login first

Setup the Prestige as a DHCP Relay
What is DHCP Relay?
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. In addition to the DHCP server feature, the P2602
supports the DHCP relay function. When it is configured as DHCP server, it assigns the IP addresses to the
LAN clients. When it is configured as DHCP relay, it is reponsable for forwarding the requests and responses
negotiating between the DHCP clients and the server. See figure 1.

Configure an Internal Server Behind SUA
Introduction
If you wish, you can make internal servers (e.g., Web, ftp or mail server) accessible for outside users, even
though SUA makes your LAN appear as a single machine to the outside world. A service is identified by the
port number. Also, since you need to specify the IP address of a server in the Prestige, a server must have a
fixed IP address and not be a DHCP client whose IP address potentially changes each time it is powered on.
In addition to the servers for specific services, SUA supports a default server. A service request that does not
have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default server. If the default server is not defined,
the service request is simply discarded.
Configuration
To make a server visible to the outside world, specify the port number of the service and the inside address of
the server in 'Menu 15.2.1', Multiple Server Configuration. The outside users can access the local server using
the Prestige's
WAN IP
address which can be obtained from menu 24.1.

Configure a PPTP server Behind SUA
Introduction
PPTP is a tunneling protocol defined by the PPTP forum that allows PPP packets to be encapsulated within
Internet Protocol (IP) packets and forwarded over any IP network, including the Internet itself.
In order to run the Windows 9x PPTP client, you must be able to establish an IP connection with a tunnel server
such as the Windows NT Server 4.0 Remote Access Server.
Windows Dial-Up Networking uses the Internet standard Point-to-Point (PPP) to provide a secure,optimized
multiple-protocol network connection over dial-up telephone lines. All data sent over this connection can be
encrypted and compressed, and multiple network level protocols (TCP/IP, NetBEUI and IPX) can be run
correctly. Windows NT Domain Login level security is preserved even across the Internet.
Window98 PPTP Client / Internet / NT RAS Server Protocol Stack
PPTP appears as new modem type (Virtual Private Networking Adapter) that can be selected when setting up a
connection in the Dial-Up Networking folder. The VPN Adapter type does not appear elsewhere in the system.
Since PPTP encapsulates its data stream in the PPP protocol, the VPN requires a second dial-up adapter. This
second dial-up adapter for VPN is added during the installation phase of the Upgrade in addition to the first
dial-up adapter that provides PPP support for the analog or ISDN modem.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

The PPTP is supported in Windows NT and Windows 98 already. For Windows 95, it needs to be upgraded by
the Dial-Up Networking 1.2 upgrade.
Configuration
This application note explains how to establish a PPTP connection with a remote private network in the Prestige
SUA case. In ZyNOS, all PPTP packets can be forwarded to the internal PPTP Server (WinNT server) behind
SUA. The port number of the PPTP has to be entered in the SMT Menu 15 for Prestige to forward to the
appropriate private IP address of Windows NT server.
Example
The following example shows how to dial to an ISP via the Prestige and then establish a tunnel to a private
network. There will be three items that you need to set up for PPTP application, these are PPTP server (WinNT),
PPTP client (Win9x) and the Prestige.
o PPTP server setup (WinNT)
Add the VPN service from Control Panel>Network Add an user account for PPTP logged on user Enable RAS port Select the network protocols from RAS such as IPX, TCP/IP NetBEUI Set the Internet gateway to Prestige
o PPTP client setup (Win9x)
Add one VPN connection from Dial-Up Networking by entering the correct
username & password and the IP address of the Prestige's Internet IP address for logging to NT RAS server.

o Prestige router setup
Before making a VPN connection from Win9x to WinNT server, you need to connect Prestige
router to your ISP first.
Enter the IP address of the PPTP server (WinNT server) and the port number for PPTP as shown
below.
When you have finished the above settings, you can ping to the remote Win9x client from
WinNT. This ping command is used to demonstrate that remote the Win9x can be reached across the
Internet. If the Internet connection between two LANs is achieve, you can place a VPN call from the
remote Win9x client.
For example:

C:\ping 203.66.113.2
When a dial-up connection to ISP is established, a default gateway is assigned to the router traffic
through that connection. Therefore, the output below shows the default gateway of the Win9x client
after the dial-up connection has been established.
Before making a VPN connection from the Win9x client to the NT server, you need to know the exact
Internet IP address that the ISP assigns to Prestige router in SUA mode and enter this IP address in the
VPN dial-up dialog box. You can check this Internet IP address from PNC Monitor or SMT Menu
24.1. If the Internet IP address is a fixed IP address provided by ISP in SUA mode, then you can
always use this IP address for reaching the VPN server.
In the following example, the IP address '140.113.1.225' is dynamically assigned by ISP. You must
enter this IP address in the 'VPN Server' dialog box for reaching the PPTP server. After the VPN link is
established, you can start the network protocol application such as IP, IPX and NetBEUI.

Using NAT / Multi-NAT
What is Multi-NAT?
NAT (Network Address Translation-NAT RFC 1631) is the translation of an Internet Protocol address used
within one network to a different IP address known within another network. One network is designated the
inside
network and the other is the
or more global outside IP addresses and "unmaps" the global IP addresses on incoming packets back into local
IP addresses. The IP addresses for the NAT can be either fixed or dynamically assigned by the ISP. In addition,
you can designate servers, e.g., a web server and a telnet server, on your local network and make them
accessible to the outside world. If you do not define any servers, NAT offers the additional benefit of firewall
protection. In such case, all incoming connections to your network will be filtered out by the Prestige, thus
outside
. Typically, a company maps its local inside network addresses to one
preventing intruders from probing your network.
The SUA feature that the Prestige supports previously operates by mapping the private IP addresses to a global
IP address. It is only one subset of the NAT. The Prestige with ZyNOS V3.40 supports the most of the features
of the NAT based on RFC 1631, and we call this feature as 'Multi-NAT'. For more information on IP address
translation, please refer to RFC 1631,
How NAT works
The IP Network Address Translator (NAT)
.
If we define the local IP addresses as the Internal Local Addresses (ILA) and the global IP addresses as the
Inside Global Address (IGA), see the following figure. The term 'inside' refers to the set of networks that are
subject to translation. NAT operates by mapping the ILA to the IGA required for communication with hosts on
other networks. It replaces the original IP source address (and TCP or UDP source port numbers) and then
forwards each packet to the Internet ISP, thus making them appear as if they had come from the NAT system
itself (e.g., the Prestige router). The Prestige keeps track of the original addresses and port numbers so incoming
reply packets can have their original values restored.

1. NAT Mapping Types
NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are:
2. One to One
In One-to-One mode, the Prestige maps one ILA to one IGA.
3. Many to One
In Many-to-One mode, the Prestige maps multiple ILA to one IGA. This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port
address translation), ZyXEL's Single User Account feature that previous ZyNOS routers supported (the SUA
only option in today's routers).
4. Many to Many Overload
In Many-to-Many Overload mode, the Prestige maps the multiple ILA to shared IGA.
5. Many to Many No Overload
In Many-to-Many No Overload mode, the Prestige maps each ILA to unique IGA.
Server
In Server mode, the Prestige maps multiple inside servers to one global IP address. This allows us to specify
multiple servers of different types behind the NAT for outside access. Note, if you want to map each server to
one unique IGA please use the One-to-One mode.

SUA Versus NAT
SUA (Single User Account) in previous ZyNOS versions is a NAT set with 2 rules, Many-to-One and Server.
The Prestige now has Full Feature NAT support to map global IP addresses to local IP addresses of clients or
servers. With multiple global IP addresses, multiple severs of the same type (e.g., FTP servers) are allowed on
the LAN for outside access. In previous ZyNOS versions (that supported SUA 'visible' servers had to be of
different types. The Prestige supports NAT sets on a remote node basis. They are reusable, but only one set is
allowed for each remote node. The Prestige 2602HWNLI supports 8 sets since there are 8 remote node. The
default SUA (Read Only) Set in menu 15.1 is a convenient, pre-configured, read only, Many-to-One mapping
set, sufficient for most purposes and helpful to people already familiar with SUA in previous ZyNOS versions.

1. Default Default 0.0.0.0
The NAT Server Set is a list of LAN side servers mapped to external ports (similar to the old SUA menu of
before). If you wish, you can make inside servers for different services, e.g., Web or FTP, visible to the outside
users, even though NAT makes your network appears as a single machine to the outside world. A server is
identified by the port number, e.g., Web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21.
As an example (see the following figure), if you have a Web server at 192.168.1.36 and a FTP server at
192.168.1.33, then you need to specify for port 80 (Web) the server at IP address 192.168.1.36 and for port 21
(FTP) another at IP address 192.168.1.33.
Please note that a server can support more than one service, e.g., a server can provide both FTP and Mail
service, while another provides only Web service.
The following procedures show how to configure a server behind NAT.
Step 1. Enter 15 in the Main Menu to go to Menu 15-NAT Setup.
Step 2. Enter 2 to go to Menu 15.2.1-NAT Server Setup.
Step 3. Enter the service port number in the Port# field and the inside IP address of the server in the IP Address
field.
Step 4. Press [SPACEBAR] at the 'Press ENTER to confirm...' prompt to save your configuration after you
define all the servers or press ESC at any time to cancel.

same IP address. In this case it is better to use Many-to-Many No Overload or One-to-One NAT mapping types,
thus each user login to the server using a unique global IP address. The following figure illustrates this.
One rule configured for using Many-to-Many No Overload mapping type is shown below.
The three rules configured for using One-to-One mapping type is shown below.

About Filter & Filter Examples
How does ZyXEL filter work?
Filter Structure
The Prestige allows you to configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72 filter
rules in the system. You can apply up to four filter sets to a particular port to block multiple types of packets.
With each filter set having up to six rules, you can have a maximum of 24 rules active for a single port. The
following diagram illustrates the logic flow when executing a filter rule.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
42
Filter Types and SUA
Conceptually, there are two categories of filter rules: device and protocol. The Generic filter rules belong to the
device category; they act on the raw data from/to LAN and WAN. The IP and IPX filter rules belong to the
protocol category; they act on the IP and IPX packets.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
43
In order to allow users to specify the local network IP address and port number in the filter rules with SUA
connections, the TCP/IP filter function has to be executed before SUA for WAN outgoing packets and after the
SUA for WAN incoming IP packets. But at the same time, the Generic filter rules must be applied at the point
when the Prestige is receiving and sending the packets; i.e. the ISDN interface. So, the execution sequence has
to be changed. The logic flow of the filter is shown in Figure 1 and the sequence of the logic flow for the packet
from LAN to WAN is:
LAN device and protocol input filter sets. WAN protocol call and output filter sets. If SUA is enabled, SUA converts the source IP address from 192.168.1.33 to 203.205.115.6 and
port number from 1023 to 4034.
WAN device output and call filter sets.
The sequence of the logic flow for the packet from WAN to LAN is:
WAN device input filter sets. If SUA is enabled, SUA converts the destination IP address from 203.205.115.6 to 92.168.1.33 and port
number from 4034 to 1023.
WAN protocol input filter sets. LAN device and protocol output filter sets.
Generic and TCP/IP (and IPX) filter rules are in different filter sets. The SMT will detect and prevent the
mixing of different category rules within any filter set in Menu 21. In the following example, you will receive
an error message 'Protocol and device filter rules cannot be active together' if you try to activate a TCP/IP (or
IPX) filter rule in a filter set that has already had one or more active Generic filter rules. You will receive the

SMT will also prevent you from entering a protocol filter set configured in Menu 21 to the device filters field in
Menu 3.1, 11.5, or entering a device filter set to the protocol filters field. Even though SMT will prevent the
inconsistency from being entered in ZyNOS, it is unable to resolve the intermixing problems existing in the
filter sets that were configured before. Instead, when ZyNOS translates the old configuration into the new
format, it will verify the filter rules and log the inconsistencies. Please check the system log (Menu 24.3.1)
before putting your device into use.
In order to avoid operational problems later, the Prestige will disable its routing/bridging functions if there is an
inconsistency among its filter rules.

This configuration example shows you how to use a Generic Filter to block a specific MAC address of the
LAN.
Before you Begin
Before you configure the filter, you need to know the MAC address of the client first. The MAC address can be
provided by the NICs. If there is the LAN packet passing through the Prestige you can identify the uninteresting
MAC address from the Prestige's LAN packet trace. Please have a look at the following example to know the
trace of the LAN packets.

Configurations
From the above first trace, we know a client is trying to ping request the Prestige router. And from the second
trace, we know the Prestige router will send a reply to the client accordingly. The following sample filter will
utilize the 'Generic Filter Rule' to block the MAC address [00 80 c8 4c ea 63].
1. First, from the incoming LAN packet we know the uninteresting source MAC address starts at the 7th Octet
2. We are now ready to configure the 'Generic Filter Rule' as below.

Key Settings:
Generic Filter Ruls
Set the 'Filter Type' to 'Generic Filter Rule'
Active
Turn 'Active' to 'Yes'
Offset (in bytes)
Set to '6' since the source MAC address starts at 7th octets we need to skip the first octets of the destination MAC address.
Length (in bytes)
Set to '6' since MAC address has 6 octets.
Mask (in hexadecimal)
Specify the value that the Prestige will logically qualify (logical AND) the data in the packet. Since the Length is set to 6 octets the Mask for it should be 12 hexadecimal numbers. In this case, we intent to set to 'ffffffffffff' to mask the incoming source MAC address, [00 80 c8 4c ea 63].
Value (in hexadecimal)
Specify the MAC address [00 80 c8 4c ea 63] that the Prestige should use to compare with the masked packet. If the result from the masked packet matches the 'Value', then the packet is considered matched.

Filter Filter
A filter for blocking the NetBIOS packets
Introduction
The NETBIOS protocol is used to share a Microsoft comupter of a workgroup. For the security concern, the
NetBIOS connection to a outside host is blocked by Prestige router as factory defaults. Users can remove the
filter sets applied to menu 3.1 and menu 4.1 for activating the NetBIOS services. The details of the filter
settings are described as follows.
Configuration
The packets need to be blocked are as follows. Please configure two filter sets with 4 and 2 rules respectively
based on the following packets in SMT menu 21.
Filter Set 1:
o Rule 1-Destination port number 137 with protocol number 6 (TCP) o Rule 2-Destination port number 137 with protocol number 17 (UDP) o Rule 3-Destination port number 138 with protocol number 6 (TCP) o Rule 4-Destination port number 138 with protocol number 17 (UDP) o Rule 5-Destination port number 139 with protocol number 6 (TCP) o Rule 6-Destination port number 139 with protocol number 17 (UDP)
Filter Set 2:
o Rule 1-Source port number 137, Destination port number 53 with protocol number 6
(TCP)
o Rule 2-Source port number 137, Destination port number 53 with protocol number 17
(UDP)
Before starting to set the filter rules, please enter a name for each filter set in the 'Comments' field first.

Using the Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
1. What is DDNS?
The DDNS service, an IP Registry provides a public central database where information such as email
addresses, hostnames, IPs etc. can be stored and retrieved. This solves the problems if your DNS server uses an
IP associated with dynamic IPs.
Without DDNS, we always tell the users to use the WAN IP of the Prestige to access the internal server. It is
inconvenient for the users if this IP is dynamic. With DDNS supported by the Prestige, you apply a DNS name
(e.g., www.zyxel.com.tw) for your server (e.g., Web server) from a DDNS server. The outside users can always
access the web server using the www.zyxel.com.tw regardless of the WAN IP of the Prestige.
When the ISP assigns the Prestige a new IP, the Prestige must inform the DDNS server the change of this IP so
that the server can update its IP-to-DNS entry. Once the IP-to-DNS table in the DDNS server is updated, the
DNS name for your web server (i.e., www.zyxel.com.tw) is still usable.
The DDNS server stores password-protected email addresses with IPs and hostnames and accepts queries based
on email addresses. So, there must be an email entry in the Prestige menu 1.
The DDNS servers the Prestige supports currently is WWW.DYNDNS.ORG where you apply the DNS from
and update the WAN IP to.
Setup the DDNS
Before configuring the DDNS settings in the Prestige, you must register an account from the
DDNS server such as WWW.DYNDNS.ORG first. After the registration, you have a hostname for your internal server and a password using to update the IP to the DDNS server.
Toggle 'Configure Dynamic DNS' option to 'Yes' and press ENTER for configuring the settings
of the DDNS in menu 1.1.

Network Management Using SNMP
1. SNMP Overview
The
Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) is an applications-layer protocol used to exchange the
management information between network devices (e.g., routers). By using SNMP, network administrators can
more easily manage network performance, find and solve network problems. The SNMP is a member of the
TCP/IP protocol suite, it uses the UDP to exchange messages between a management Client and an Agent,
residing in a network node.
There are two versions of SNMP: Version 1 and Version 2. ZyXEL supports SNMPv1. Most of the changes
introduced in Version 2 increase SNMP's security capabilities. SNMP encompasses three main areas:
1. A small set of management operations.
2. Definitions of management variables.
3. Data representation.
The operations allowed are: Get, GetNext, Set, and Trap. These functions operates on variables that exist in
network nodes. Examples of variables include statistic counters, node port status, and so on. All of the SNMP
management functions are carried out through these simple operations. No action operations are available, but
these can be simulated by the setting of flag variables. For example, to reset a node, a counter variable named
'time to reset' could be set to a value, causing the node to reset after the time had elapsed.
SNMP variables are defined using the OSI Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1). ASN.1 specifies how a
variable is encoded in a transmitted data frame; it is very powerful because the encoded data is self-defining.
For example, the encoding of a text string includes an indication that the data unit is a string, along with its
length and value. ASN.1 is a flexible way of defining protocols, especially for network management protocols
where nodes may support different sets of manageable variables.
The net of variables that each node supports is called the
Management Information Base
made up of several parts, including the Standard MIB, specified as part of SNMP, and Enterprise Specific MIB,
which are defined by different manufacturer for hardware specific management.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
(MIB). The MIB is
67
The current Internet-standard MIB, MIB-II, is defined in RFC 1213 and contains 171 objects. These objects are
grouped by protocol (including TCP, IP, UDP, SNMP, and other categories, including 'system' and 'interface.'
The Internet Management Model is as shown in figure 1. Interactions between the NMS and managed devices
can be any of four different types of commands:
6. Reads
Read is used to monitor the managed devices, NMSs read variables that are maintained by the devices.
7. Writes
Write is used to control the managed devices, NMSs write variables that are stored in the managed
devices.
8. Traversal operations
NMSs use these operations to determine which variables a managed device supports and to sequentially
gather information from variable tables (such as IP routing table) in managed devices.
9. Traps
The managed devices to asynchronously report certain events to NMSs use trap.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
68
2. SNMPv1 Operations
SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol. 4 SNMPv1 operations are defined as below.
Get
Allows the NMS to retrieve an object variable from the agent.
GetNext
Allows the NMS to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a NMS wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.
Set
Allows the NMS to set values for object variables within an agent.
Trap
Used by the agent to inform the NMS of some events.
The SNMPv1 messages contains two part. The first part contains a version and a community name. The second
part contains the actual SNMP protocol data unit (PDU) specifying the operation to be performed (Get, Set, and
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
69
so on) and the object values involved in the operation. The following figure shows the SNMPv1 message
format.
The SNMP PDU contains the following fields:
PDU type Specifies the type of PDU. Request ID Associates requests with responses. Error status Indicates an error and an error type. Error index Associates the error with a particular object variable. Variable-bindings Associates particular object with their value.
3. ZyXEL SNMP Implementation
ZyXEL currently includes SNMP support in some Prestige routers. It is implemented based on the SNMPv1, so
it will be able to communicate with SNMPv1 NMSs. For SNMPv1 operation, ZyXEL permits one community
string so that the router can belong to only one community and allows trap messages to be sent to only one
NMS manager.
Some traps are sent to the SNMP manager when anyone of the following events happens:
coldStart (defined in RFC-1215) :
If the machine coldstarts, the trap will be sent after booting.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
70
warmStart (defined in RFC-1215) :
If the machine warmstarts, the trap will be sent after booting.
linkDown (defined in RFC-1215) :
If any link of IDSL or WAN is down, the trap will be sent with the port number . The port number is its
interface index under the interface group.
linkUp (defined in RFC-1215) :
If any link of IDSL or WAN is up, the trap will be sent with the port number . The port number is its
interface index under the interface group.
authenticationFailure (defined in RFC-1215) :
When receiving any SNMP get or set requirement with wrong community, this trap is sent to the manager.
1. whyReboot (defined in ZYXEL-MIB) :
When the system is going to restart (warmstart), the trap will be sent with the reason of restart before rebooting.
(i) For intentional reboot :
In some cases (download new files, CI command "sys reboot", ...), reboot is done intentionally. And traps with
the message "System reboot by user !" will be sent.
(ii) For fatal error :
System has to reboot for some fatal errors. And traps with the message of the fatal code will be sent.

Using IP Alias
What is IP Alias ?
In a typical environment, a LAN router is required to connect two local networks. The Prestige can connect
three local networks to the ISP or a remote node, we call this function as 'IP Alias'. In this case, an internal
router is not required. For example, the network manager can divide the local network into three networks and
connect them to the Internet using Prestige's single user account. See the figure below.
The Prestige supports three virtual LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet interface. The first network
can be configured in menu 3.2 as usual. The second and third networks that we call 'IP Alias 1' and 'IP Alias 2'
can be configured in menu 3.2.1-IP Alias Setup.
There are three internal virtual LAN interfaces for the Prestige to route the packets from/to the three networks
correctly. They are enif0 for the major network, enif0:0 for the IP alias 1 and enif0:1 for the IP alias 2.
Therefore, three routes are created in the Prestige as shown below when the three networks are configured. If
the Prestige's DHCP is also enabled, the IP pool for the clients can be any of the three networks.

Time Service in Prestige
There is no RTC (Real-Time Clock) chip so the Prestige should launch a mechanism to get current time and
date from external server in boot time. Time service is implemented by the Daytime protocol(RFC-867), Time
protocol(RFC-868), and NTP protocol(RFC-1305). You have to assign an IP address of a time server and then,
the Prestige will get the date, time, and time-zone information from this server.

Using IP Multicast
What is IP Multicast ?
Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in two ways - unicast or broadcast. Multicast is a third way to deliver IP packets to a group of hosts. Host groups are identified by class D IP addresses, i.e., those with "1110" as their higher-order bits. In dotted decimal notation, host group addresses range from 224.0.0.0 to
239.255.255.255. Among them, 224.0.0.1 is assigned to the permanent IP hosts group, and 224.0.0.2 is assigned to the multicast routers group.
IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is the protocol used to support multicast groups. The latest
version is version 2 (see RFC2236). IP hosts use IGMP to report their multicast group membership to any
immediate-neighbor multicast routers so the multicast routers can decide if a multicast packet needs to be
forwarded. At start up, the Prestige queries all directly connected networks to gather group membership.
After that, the Prestige updates the information by periodic queries. The Prestige implementation of IGMP is
also compatible with version 1. The multicast setting can be turned on or off on Ethernet and remote nodes.

Using Prestige traffic redirect
What is Traffic Redirect ?
Traffic redirect forwards WAN traffic to a backup gateway when Prestige cannot connect to the Internet
through it's normal gateway. Thus make your backup gateway as an auxiliary backup of your WAN
connection. Once Prestige detects it's WAN connectivity is broken, Prestige will try to forward outgoing
traffic to backup gateway that users specify in traffic redirect configuration menu.
How to deploy backup gateway?
You can deploy the backup gateway on LAN of Prestige.

Label
Description
Backup Type
Select the method that the Prestige uses to check the DSL connection.
Select DSL Link to have the Prestige check if the connection to the DSLAM is up. Select ICMP to have the Prestige periodically ping the IP addresses configured in the Check WAN IP Address fields.
Check WAN IP Address1-3
Configure this field to test your Prestige's WAN accessibility. Type the IP address of a reliable nearby computer (for example, your ISP's DNS server address).
If you select ICMP in the Backup Type field, you must configure at least one IP address here.
When using a WAN backup connection, the Prestige periodically pings the addresses configured here and uses the other WAN backup connection (if configured) if there is no response.
Fail Tolerance
Type the number of times (2 recommended) that your Prestige may ping the IP addresses configured in the Check WAN IP Address fields without getting a response before switching to a WAN backup connection (or a different WAN backup connection).
Recovery Interval
When the Prestige is using a lower priority connection (usually a WAN backup connection), it periodically checks to whether or not it can use a higher priority connection.
Type the number of seconds (30 recommended) for the Prestige to wait between checks. Allow more time if your destination IP address handles lots of traffic.
Timeout
Type the number of seconds (3 recommended) for your Prestige to wait for a ping response from one of the IP addresses in the Check WAN IP Address fields before timing out the request. The WAN connection is considered "down" after the Prestige times out the number of times specified in the Fail Tolerance field. Use a higher value in this field if your network is busy or congested.

Description
Redirect
Active
Select this check box to have the Prestige use traffic redirect if the normal WAN connection goes down.
If you activate traffic redirect, you must configure at least one Check WAN IP Address.
Metric
This field sets this route's priority among the routes the Prestige uses.
The metric represents the "cost of transmission". A router determines the best route for transmission by choosing a path with the lowest "cost". RIP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of "1" for directly connected networks. The number must be between "1" and "15"; a number greater than "15" means the link is down. The smaller the number, the lower the "cost".

Using Universal Plug n Play (UPnP)
1. What is UPnP
UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) makes connecting PCs of all form factors, intelligent appliances, and wireless
devices in the home, office, and everywhere in between easier and even automatic by leveraging TCP/IP and
Web technologies. UPnP can be supported on essentially any operating system and works with essentially any type of physical networking media – wired or wireless.
UPnP also supports NAT Traversal which can automatically solve many NAT unfriendly problems. By UPnP,
applications assign the dynamic port mappings to Internet gateway and delete the mappings when the
connections are complete.
The key components in UPnP are devices, services, and control points.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
88
Devices: Network devices, such as networking gateways, TV, refrigerators, printers...etc, which
provides services.
Services: Services are provided by devices, such as time services provided by alarm clocks. In
UPnP, services are described in XML format. Control points can set/get services information from devices.
Control points: Control points can manipulate network devices When you add a new control
point (in this case, a laptop) to a network, the device may ask the network to find UPnP-enabled devices. These devices respond with their URLs and device descriptions.
UPnP Operations
Addressing: UPnPv1 devices MAY support IPv4, IPv6, or both. For IPv4, each device should have DHCP
client, when the device gets connected to the network, it will discover DHCP server on network to get an IP address. If not, then Auto-IP mechanism should be supported so that the device can give itself an IP address.(169.254.0.0/16)
Discovery: Whenever a device is added on the network, it will advertise it's a service over the network.
Control point can also discover services provided by devices.
Description: Control points can get more detailed service information from devices' description in XML
format. The description may include product name, model name, serial number, vendor ID, and
embedded services...etc.
Control: Devices can be manipulated by control points through Control message.
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
89
Eventing: Devices can send event message to notify control points if there is any update on services
provided.
Presentation: Each device can provide their own control interface by URL link. So that users can go to
the device's presentation web page by the URL to control this device.
2. Using UPnP in ZyXEL devices
In this example, we will introduce how to enable UPnP function in ZyXEL devices. Currently, Microsoft MSN
is the most popular application exploiting UPnP, so we take Microsoft MSN application as an example in this
support note. You can learn how MSN benefit from NAT traversal feature in UPnP in this application note.
In the diagram, suppose PC1 and PC2 both sign in MSN server, and they would like to establish a video
conference. PC1 is behind PPPoE dial-up router which supports UPnP. Since the router supports UPnP, we
don't need to setup NAT mapping for PC1. As long as we enable UPnP function on the router, PC1 will assign
the mapping to the router dynamically. Note that since PC1 must support UPnP, we presume that it's OS is
Microsoft WinME or WinXP.
Device: Prestige Router
Service: NAT function provided by Prestige Router
Control Point: PC1
1. Enable UPnP function in ZyXEL device
All contents copyright (c) 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
90
Go to Advanced->UPnP, check two boxes, Active UPnP feature and Allow users to make configuration
changes through UPnP.
The first check box enables UPnP function in this device.
The second check box allows users' application to change configuration in this device. For instance, if you
enable this item, then user's MSN application can assign dynamic port mapping to the router. So that network
administrator don't need to setup SUA port mapping in the router.
2. After getting IP address, you can go to open MSN application on PC and sign in MSN server.

Wireless MAC address filtering
MAC Filter Overview
Users can use MAC Filter as a method to restrict unauthorized stations from accessing the APs. ZyXEL's APs
provide the capability for checking MAC address of the station before allowing it to connect to the network.
This provides an additional layer of control layer in that only stations with registered MAC addresses can
connect. This approach requires that the list of MAC addresses be configured.
2. ZyXEL MAC Filter Implementation
ZyXEL's MAC Filter Implementation allows users to define a list to allow or block association from STAs. The
filter set allows users to input 12 entries in the list. If Allow Association is selected, all other STAs which are
not on the list will be denied. Otherwise, if Deny Association is selected, all other STAs which are not on the
list will be allowed for association. Users can choose either way to configure their filter rule.
3. Configure the WLAN MAC Filter
The MAC Filter related settings in ZyXEL APs are configured in menu 3.5.1, WLAN MAC Address Filter
Configuration. Before you configure the MAC filter, you need to know the MAC address of the client first. If
