CHAPTER 1
Introducing the ZyXEL Device
1.1 Overview
The P-2612HW Series is an Integrated Access Device (IAD) that combines an
ADSL2+ router with Voice over IP (VoIP) communication capabilities to allow you
to use a traditional analog telephone to make Internet calls. By integrating DSL
and NAT, you are provided with ease of installation and high-speed, shared
Internet access. The ZyXEL Device is also a c om p l e t e 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 hu b (s wi tc h) .
• “W” denotes wireless functionality. There is an embedded mini-PCI module for
IEEE 802.11g wireless LAN connectivity . All wirel ess features documented in this
user’s guide refer to the “W” models only.
Only use firmware for your ZyXEL Device’s specific model. Refer
to the label on the bottom of your ZyXEL Device.
See the chapter on product specifications for a full list of features.
1.1.1 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. If you prefer not to
use a DSL line and you have another broadb and modem or router (such as ADSL)
available, you can push the DSL/WAN switch (on the rear panel) to the WAN
side and connect the WAN port to the broadband modem or router. This way, you
can access the Internet via an Ethernet connection and still use the QoS, Firewall
and VoIP functions on the ZyXEL Device.
P-2612HW Series User’s Guide
25
Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL Device
Computers can connect to the ZyXEL Device’s LAN ports (or wirelessly).
Figure 1 ZyXEL Device’s Router Features
LAN
You can also configure firewall and content filtering on the ZyXEL Device 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.
Internet
Use content filtering to block access to specific web sites, with URLs 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 ZyXEL Device gives voice over Internet calls hi gh priority, and/or limit
bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.

1.1.2 VoIP Features
You can register up to 2 SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) accounts and use the
ZyXEL Device to make and receive VoIP telephone calls:
Figure 2 ZyXEL Device’s VoIP Features
Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL Device
A
Internet
B
PSTN
• Peer-to-Peer calls (A ) - Use the Z yXEL Device to make a call to the recipient’s IP
address without using a SIP proxy server.
• Calls via a VoIP service provider (B ) - The ZyXEL Device sends your call to a
VoIP service provider’s SIP server which forwards your calls to either VoIP or
PSTN phones.
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.
• Command Line Interface. Line commands are mostly used for troubleshooting
by service engineers.
• FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore.
• SNMP. The device can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See the SNMP
chapter in this User’s Guide.
• SPTGEN. SPTGEN is a text configuration file that allows you to configure the
device by uploading an SPTGEN file. This is especially con v enient if y ou need to
configure many devices of the same type.

Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL 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.
• 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 LEDs (Lights)
The following graphic displays the labels of the LEDs.
Figure 3 LEDs on the Top of the Device
None of the LEDs are on if the ZyXEL Device is not receiving power.
