Prestige 791R G.SHDSL Router

Preface

Congratulations on your purchase of the Prestige 791R G.SHDSL Router.

The Prestige is a high-performance router for Internet/LAN access via a telephone line. Your Prestige supports multi-protocol routing for TCP/IP, as well as transparent bridging for other protocols.

The Prestige supports symmetrical multi-rate data transmission speeds 72 Kbps up to 2312 Kbps. The actual rate depends on the copper category of your telephone wires, distance from the central office and the type of DSL service you subscribe to. Its 10/100M auto-negotiating LAN interface enables fast data transfer of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps in either half-duplex or full-duplex mode depending on your Ethernet network. See the following section for more background information on DSL.

The Prestige uses TC-PAM line code with echo cancellation for high data rate transmissions over a singletwisted telephone wire pair without being affected by bridge taps or mixed cable links. It also provides high immunity from background noise.

Your Prestige is easy to install and configure. All functions are configurable via the SMT (System Management Terminal) and web configurator. Advanced users may configure the Prestige using CLI (Command Line Interface) commands.

Please visit our web site at www.zyxel.com

Don’t forget to register your Prestige (fast, easy online registration at

www.zyxel.com) for free future product updates and information.

About This User's Guide

This manual is designed to guide you through the configuration of your Prestige for its various applications. Primarily SMT menus are shown, but web configurator screens are shown for features that do not have SMT menus or the recommendation is to configure via web configurator.

Getting to Know Your G.SHDSL Router

This chapter covers the key features and main applications of your Prestige.

The Prestige 791R Router can be used for high-speed LAN-to-LAN connections or Internet access through a G.SHDSL connection over the telephone line. You can use your Prestige for either IP routing or bridging depending on your ISP (Internet Service Provider) configuration.

1.1 Features of the Prestige

The following features make the Prestige a complete and the flexible networking solution for most users.

Scalability

One of the best features of G.SHDSL service is its scalability. You can increase the capacity of the Internet connection (within certain distance limitations) without changing your ISP or purchasing new equipment. G.SHDSL’s high symmetrical speeds are ideal for applications like web hosting and videoconferencing as well as the two-way data traffic needs of businesses.

Symmetrical High Speed Internet Access

The Prestige 792H can support symmetrical transmission speeds of up to 2.3 Mbps. For NSP’s (Network Service Provider) convenience, the Prestige also supports rate management depending on distance and service charges.

The table below lists the transmission speeds available on the Prestige.

SUPPORTED TRANSMISSION SPEEDS

Min (Kbps) Max (Kbps)

SDSL

G.HDSL (G.991.2)

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol – versions 1 and 2)

SNMP, a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite, allows you to exchange management information between network devices. Your Prestige supports SNMP agent functionality that allows a manager station to manage and monitor the Prestige through the network.

Getting to Know Your G.SHDSL Router 1-1

72 136

200 2312

Prestige 791R G.SHDSL Router

SNMP is only available if TCP/IP is configured on your Prestige.

IP Multicast

Deliver IP packets to a specific group of hosts using IP multicast. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is the protocol used to support multicast groups. The latest version is version 2 (see RFC 2236); the Prestige supports both versions 1 and 2.

IP Alias

IP Alias allows you to partition a physical network into logical networks over the same Ethernet interface. The Prestige supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet interface with the Prestige itself as the gateway for each LAN network.

IP Policy Routing

IP Policy Routing provides a mechanism to override the default routing behavior and alter packet forwarding based on the policies defined by the network administrator.

10/100MB Auto-negotiation Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Interface

This auto-negotiation feature allows the Prestige to detect the speed of incoming transmissions and adjust appropriately, providing a faster data transfer on the Ethernet network as required. It enables fast data transfer of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps in either half-duplex or full-duplex mode depending on your Ethernet network.

Protocols Supported

• TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network layer protocol.

• PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) link layer protocol.

• SUA™ (Single User Account) and NAT (Network Address Translation).

PAP and CHAP Security

The Prestige supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP; however, PAP is available on more platforms.

DHCP Support

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (computers) to obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige has built-in DHCP server capability, enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS servers to other systems that support the DHCP client. The Prestige can now also act as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignment from the actual real DHCP server to the clients.

Prestige 791R G.SHDSL Router

Encapsulation

The Prestige supports PPPoE, PPP over ATM (RFC-2364), Multiple Protocol over ATM (RFC-1483) and ENET ENCAP.

SUA for Single-IP Address Internet Access

The Prestige’s SUA (Single User Account, equivalent to NAT) feature allows multiple user Internet access for the cost of a single ISP account and allows multiple users on the LAN (Local Area Network) to access the Internet concurrently. SUA supports popular Internet applications such as MS traceroute, CuSeeMe, IRC, ICQ, RealAudio, VDOLive, Quake and PPTP. No extra configuration is needed to support these applications. SUA address mapping can also be used for other LAN-to-LAN connections.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)

Using the standard TCP/IP protocol, the Prestige and other UPnP enabled devices can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address and convey its capabilities to other devices on the network.

Full Network Management

• Menu driven SMT (System Management Terminal) management

• SNMP manageable

• Web Configurator

Upgrade Firmware via LAN

In addition to the direct console port connection, the Prestige supports the up/downloading of firmware and configuration file over the LAN.

Packet Filtering

Packet filtering blocks unwanted traffic from entering/leaving your network.

Ease of Installation

Your Prestige is designed for quick, easy and intuitive installation. Its compact size and light weight make it easy to position anywhere in your busy office.

Multiple PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuits) Support

Your Prestige supports up to 12 PVC’s.

All-in-one Console and Auxiliary Port

Set the CON/AUX switch to the “CON” side when using the CON/AUX port as a regular console port for local device configuration and management. Set this switch to the “AUX” side when using the CON/AUX port as an auxiliary dial-up WAN connection.
