PMG5318-B20A User’s Guide
1.1 Overview
The PMG5318-B20A combines a fiber optic (GPON) router with a built-in switch. Its voice over IP
(VoIP) capabilities allow you to use a traditional analog telephone to make Internet phone calls.
1.2 Managing the GPON Device
Use the GPON Device’s built-in Web Configurator to manage it. You can connect to it using a web
browser such as Firefox 2.0 (and higher) or Internet Explorer 6 (and higher). For details on
connecting to it, see the Section 2.1.1 on page 15.
CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the GPON Device
Do the following things regularly to make the GPON Device more secure and to manage the GPON
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 your password, you will have to reset the GPON Device to its factory default settings. If
you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the GPON
Device. You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the GPON Device
Here are some example uses for which the GPON Device is well suited.
PMG5318-B20A User’s Guide 9
Chapter 1 Introduction
Internet
LAN
1.4.1 Triple Play
The ISP may provide “triple play” service to the GPON Device. This allows you to take advantage of
such features as broadband Internet access, Voice over IP telephony, and streaming video/audio
media, all at the same time with no noticeable loss in bandwidth.
Figure 1 Triple Play Example
1.4.2 Internet Access
Your GPON Device provides shared Internet access by connecting a fiber optic line provided by the
ISP to the PON port.
Figure 2 GPON Device’s Router Features

PMG5318-B20A User’s Guide
1.4.3 VoIP Features
Internet
PSTN
You can register up to 2 SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) accounts and use the GPON Device to
make and receive VoIP telephone calls:
Figure 3 GPON Device’s VoIP Features
Chapter 1 Introduction
Calls via a VoIP service provider - the GPON Device sends your call to a VoIP service provider’s SIP
server which forwards your calls to either VoIP or PSTN phones.

Refer to Section 1.5 on page 11 for information on hardware connections.
1.6 The Reset Button
If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the RESET
button at the back of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that y ou
will lose all configurations that you had previously and the password will be reset to the default.
1.6.1 Using the Reset Button
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
12
PMG5318-B20A User’s Guide
2 To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for more than 3
seconds or until the POWER LED begins to blink and then release it. When the POWER LED begins
to blink, the defaults have been restored and the device restarts.
1.7 The WPS Button
You can use the WPS button on the back of the device to disable or activate the wireless LAN. You
can also use it to activate WPS in order to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.
Figure 5 WPS Button
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.7.1 Using the WPS button
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 If the wireless LAN of the GPON Device is enabled, the LED light shines green. If not, press the
WPS button for more than 5 seconds and release it when the LED turns green. If you want to turn
it off, press the WPS button for 5 seconds again.
3 Press the WPS button for over 5 seconds and release it. See above for WPS button location.
4 Press the WPS button on a compatible device within 2 minutes of pressing the button on the GPON
Device. The WLAN LED should flash in orange while the GPON Device sets up a WPS connection
with the other wireless device.
5 Once the connection is successfully made, the WLAN LED shines green.

4.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to configure WAN settings. A WAN (Wide Area Network) is an outside
connection to another network or the Internet.
4.1.1 What You Need to Know
The following terms and concepts may help as you read through the chapter.
Encapsulation
Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by the ISP. The GPON Device supports the
following methods.
CHAPTER 4
WAN
PPP over Ethernet
The GPON Device supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). PPPoE is an IETF Draft
standard (RFC 2516) specifying how a personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband modem
(DSL, cable, wireless, etc.) connection. The PPPoE option is for a dial-up connection using PPPoE.
For the service provider, PPPoE offers an access and authentication method that works with existing
access control systems (for example RADIUS).
One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let you access one of multiple network services, a
function known as dynamic service selection. This enables the service provider to easily create and
offer new IP services for individuals.
Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both you and the ISP or carrier, as it requires no
specific configuration of the broadband modem at the customer site.
By implementing PPPoE directly on the GPON Device (rather than individual computers), the
computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the GPON Device does that part
of the task.
IP Address Assignment
A static IP is a fixed IP that the ISP provides. A dynamic IP is not fixed; the ISP assigns a different
one each time. The Single User Account feature can be enabled or disabled if you have either a
dynamic or static IP. However the encapsulation method assigned influences your choices for IP
address and ENET ENCAP gateway.

Chapter 4 WAN
Multicast and IGMP
Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two w ays - Unicast (1 sender - 1 recipient)
or Broadcast (1 sender - everybody on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to a group of
hosts on the network - not everybody and not just 1.
IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish
membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.
4.2 Internet Access Setup Status

Device’s number and names of default WAN interfaces may vary from this example.

Authentication

Service Description Enter a description to identify this WAN interface.
The GPON Device supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP
(Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP;
however, PAP is readily available on more platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.
Options are:
AUTO - Your GPON Device accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by this remote
node.
CHAP - Your GPON Device accepts CHAP only.
PAP - Your GPON Device accepts PAP only.
