3 Internet Access With Zero
Configuration
With the Prestige’s Zero Configuration, you can access the Internet easily. Simply connect a computer to the Prestige and access the Internet without changing the network settings (such as the IP address and subnet mask) of the computer.
Step 1. Make the hardware connections and turn on the Prestige (refer to
the Rear Panel Connections section).
Step 2. Wait until the DSL/ACT LED turns steady on. Launch your web
browser and navigate to a web site (for example, www.zyxel.com The Prestige automatically detects and configures your Internet connection. This may take about two minutes.
Step 3. If you have a PPPoE or PPPoA connection type, a screen displays
prompting you to enter your Internet account username and/or password. Enter the username, password and/or service name exactly as provided by your ISP. Click Apply.
).
Step 4. You should be able to access the Internet. Otherwise, follow the on-
screen instructions to solve the problem(s). Refer to the rest of this guide or the User’s Guide to manually configure your Prestige for Internet connection and other advanced settings.
If an Internet access parameter changes, either change it
manually or restart the device to have the Prestige automatically
reconfigure your Internet connection.

6 Advanced Configuration
This section shows how to configure some of the advanced features of the Prestige.
6.1 Wireless LAN Setup
A wireless LAN (WLAN) provides a flexible data communications system that you can use to access various services (the Internet, email, printer services, etc.) on the wired network without additional expensive network cabling infrastructure. In effect, a wireless LAN environment provides you the freedom to stay connected to the wired network while moving in the coverage area.
The WLAN screens are only available when a WLAN card is
installed.
To configure wireless settings, click Advanced Setup, Wireless LAN and then click Wireless.

Select this option to enable the RTS (Request To Send)/CTS (Clear To Send) threshold to minimize collisions. Enter a value between 0 and 2432. The default is 2432.
Request To Send is the threshold (number of bytes) for enabling the RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC Service Data Unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake.
Fragmentation Threshold is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encrypts data frames before transmitting them over the wireless network.
Select Disable allows all wireless computers to communicate with the access points without any data encryption.
Select 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP or 256-bit WEP and then configure the keys in the fields provided to activate data encryption.

wireless clients must use the same WEP key for data transmission.
If you chose 64-bit WEP, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F"). If you chose 128-bit WEP, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F"). If you chose 256-bit WEP, then enter 29 ASCII characters or 58 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").
You must configure all four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one time. The default key is key 1.
The wireless clients and Prestige must use the same ESSID,
channel ID and WEP encryption key (if WEP is enabled) for
wireless communication.
6.2 Wireless LAN Security Setup
For added security, set your Prestige to check the MAC address of the wireless client device against a list of allowed or denied MAC addresses.
To set up the MAC address list for wireless LAN, click Advanced Setup in the navigation panel, Wireless LAN and then click the MAC Filter link.

6.3 802.1x and WPA Overview
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i security specification draft. Key differences between WPA and WEP are user authentication and improved data encryption. WPA applies IEEE 802.1x and Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to authenticate wireless clients using an external RADIUS database. You can’t use the Prestige’s local user database for WPA authentication purposes since the local user database uses MD5 EAP which cannot be used to generate keys.
WPA improves data encryption by using Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), Message Integrity Check (MIC) and IEEE 802.1x. Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) uses 128-bit keys that are dynamically generated and distributed by the authentication server. It includes a per-packet key mixing function, a Message Integrity Check (MIC) named Michael, an extended initialization vector (IV) with sequencing rules, and a re-keying mechanism.
To change your Prestige’s authentication settings, click the Wireless LAN link under Advanced Setup and then the 802.1x/WPA tab.
port control and key management protocol
The screen varies by the wireless
you select.
6.4 Network Address Translation Overview
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.
If you have a single public IP address then select SUA Only in the NAT-Mode screen (see Figure 17). If you have multiple public IP addresses then you may use full feature mapping types (see the User’s Guide for more details).
NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are:
1. One-to-One: One-to-one mode maps one local IP address to one global IP address. Note that port numbers do not change for One-to-one NAT mapping type.
29
Page 30
Prestige 660W/HW Series Compact Guide
2. Many-to-One: Many-to-One mode maps multiple local IP addresses to one global IP address.
3. Many-to-Many Overload: Many-to-Many Overload mode maps multiple local IP addresses to shared global IP addresses.
4. Many-to-Many No Overload: Many-to-Many No Overload mode maps each local IP address to unique global IP addresses.
5. Server: This type allows you to specify inside servers of different services behind the NAT to be accessible to the outside world.
6.5 Configuring SUA Server
An SUA server set is a list of inside (behind NAT on the LAN) servers, for example, web or FTP, that you can make visible to the outside world even though SUA makes your whole inside network appear as a single computer to the outside world.
Step 7. From the main screen click Advanced Setup and then NAT to open
the NAT-Mode screen. Select SUA Only.
Step 8. Click Edit Details.

6.6 Firewall Overview
The Prestige firewall is a stateful inspection firewall and is designed to protect against Denial of Service attacks when activated. The Prestige’s purpose is to allow a private Local Area Network (LAN) to be securely connected to the Internet. The Prestige can be used to prevent theft, destruction and modification of data, as well as log events, which may be important to the security of your network. The Prestige also has packet-filtering capabilities.
When activated, the firewall allows all traffic to the Internet that originates from the LAN, and blocks all traffic to the LAN that originates from the Internet. In other words the Prestige will:
Allow all sessions originating from the LAN to the WAN Deny all sessions originating from the WAN to the LAN
LAN-to-WAN rules are local network to Internet firewall rules. The default is to forward all traffic from your local network to the Internet.
The following figure illustrates a Prestige firewall application.
