“Advanced Troubleshooting” on page 207.
49
Link: LAN
* Enable Interface: Enables all LAN-connected computers to share resources and to connect to the WAN.
The Interface should always be enabled unless you are instructed to disable it by your Service Provider dur-
ing troubleshooting.
* IP Address: The LAN IP Address of the Gateway. The IP Address you assign to your LAN inter face must
not be used by another device on your LAN network.
* IP Netmask: Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. The sub-
net mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binary IP address represent network information. The default
subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask.)
* Restrictions: Specifies whether an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection to
the Gateway over the LAN interface in order to monitor and configure the Gateway. On the LAN Interface,
you can enable or disable administrator access. By default, administrative restrictions are turned off,
meaning an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection through the LAN Interface.
• Advanced: Clicking on the Advanced link displays the Advanced LAN IP Interface page.
Administrator’s Handbook
50
IGMP Forwarding: The default setting is Disabled. If you check this option, it will enable Internet Group
Management Protocol (IGMP) multicast forwarding. IGMP allows a router to determine which host groups
have members on a given network segment. See IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)” on
page 100 for more information.
RIP Send Mode: Specifies whether the gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to advertise its routing tables to other routers on your network. You may choose from the following
protocols:
• RIP-1: Routing Information Protocol version 1
• RIP-2: RIP Version 2 is an extension of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1) that expands
the amount of useful information in the RIP packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algo-
rithms, RIP-2 supports several new features, including inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and
implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting (which reduces the load on hosts which do not
support routing protocols.
• RIP-1 compatibility: Compatible with RIP version 1
• RIP-2 with MD5: MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an
authentication key when routes are advertised.
• RIP MD5 Key: Secret password when using RIP-2 with MD5.
RIP Receive Mode: Specifies whether the Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
broadcasts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers on your network.
The protocol choices are the same as for the RIP send mode.
Proxy ARP: Specifies whether you want the Gateway to respond when it receives an address resolution
protocol for devices behind it. This is a way to make a computer that is physically located on one net-
work appear to be part of a different physical network connected to the same Gateway. It allows you to
hide a computer with a public IP address on a private network behind your Gateway, and still have the
computer appear to be on the public network “in front of” the Gateway.
Static Client Address Translation: If you check this checkbox, this feature allows a statically
addressed computer whose IP address falls outside of the LAN subnet(s) to simply plug in and get
online without any manual configuration on either the host or the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. If
enabled, statically addressed LAN hosts that have an address outside of LAN subnets will be able to
communicate via the Router’s WAN interface to the Internet. Supported static IP address values must
fall outside of the Router's LAN subnet(s).
• IP Subnets: The IP Subnets screen allows you to configure up to seven secondary subnets and their
DHCP ranges, by entering IP address/subnet mask pairs:
51
Note:
You need not use this screen if you have only a single Ethernet IP subnet.
This screen displays seven rows of editable columns. All seven row labels are always visible, regardless of
the number of subnets configured.
To add an IP subnet, select one of the rows, and click the Edit button.
Check the Enabled checkbox and click the Submit button.
The screen expands to allow you to enter subnet information.
If DHCP Server (see below) is not enabled, the DHCP Start Address and DHCP End Address fields do
not appear.
Enter the Router’s IP address on the subnet in the IP Address field and the subnet mask for the subnet
in the Netmask field.
Enter the DHCP Start Address and End Address of the subnet range in their respective fields.
Ranges cannot overlap and there may be only one range per subnet.
Click the Submit button.
When you are finished adding subnets, click the Alert icon at the upper right, and in the resulting page,
click the Save and Restart link.
To delete a configured subnet, set both the IP address and subnet mask values to 0.0.0.0, either explicitly
or by clearing each field and clicking the Submit button to commit the change.
NOTE:
All additional DHCP ranges use the global lease period value. See page 52.
Administrator’s Handbook
52
• DHCP Server: Your Gateway can provide network configuration information to computers on your LAN,
using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
If you already have a DHCP server on your LAN, you should
turn this service off.
If you want the Gateway to provide this service, click the
Server Mode pull-down menu, choose Server, then con-
figure the range of IP addresses that you would like the
Gateway to hand out to your computers.
You can also specify the length of time the computers can
use the configuration information; DHCP calls this period the lease time.
Your Service Provider may, for certain services, want to provide configuration from its DHCP servers to the
computers on your LANs. In this case, the Gateway will relay the DHCP requests from your computers to a
DHCP server in the Service Provider's network. Click the relay-agent and enter the IP address of the Service
Provider's DHCP server in the Server Address field. This address is furnished by the Service Provider.
NOTE:
The Relay-agent option only works when NAT is off and the Gateway is in router mode.
53
Wireless
(supported models)
If your Gateway is a wireless model (such as a 3347W) you can enable or disable the wireless LAN (WLAN)
by clicking the Wireless link.
Wireless functionality is enabled by default.
If you uncheck the Enable Wireless checkbox, the Wireless Options are disabled, and the Gateway will not
provide or broadcast any wireless LAN services.
SSID (Network ID): The SSID is preset to a number that is unique to your unit. You can either leave it as is,
or change it by entering a freeform name of up to 32 characters, for example “Ed’s Wireless LAN”. On client
PCs’ software, this might also be called the Network Name. The SSID is used to identify this particular wire-
less LAN. Depending on their operating system or client wireless card, users must either:
select from a list of available wireless LANs that appear in a scanned list on their client
or, if you are in Closed System Mode (see Enable Closed System Mode below), enter this name on
their clients in order to join this wireless LAN.
The pull-down menu for enabling Privacy offers four settings: WPA-802.1x, WPA-PSK, WEP - Automatic,
and Off - No Privacy. WEP-Manual is also available on the Advanced Configuration Options page. See “Pri-
vacy” on page 54.
NOTE:
On the 2200-Series Gateways, WEP-Manual privacy is enabled by default. Use the Motorola
Netopia® Installation Wizard on the accompanying Motorola Netopia® CD to generate WEP
keys for connecting wireless client computers.
Administrator’s Handbook
54
Privacy
Off - No Privacy provides no encryption on your wireless LAN data.
WPA-802.1x provides RADIUS server authentication support.
WPA-PSK provides Wireless Protected Access, the most secure option for your wireless network. This
mechanism provides the best data protection and access control.
The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the Router and the clients and is used to gener-
ate dynamically changing keys. The passphrase can be 8-63 characters or up to 64 hex characters. It is
recommended to use at least 20 characters for best security.
WEP - Automatic is a passphrase generator. You enter a passphrase that you choose in the Pass-
phrase field. The passphrase can be any string of words or numbers.
You can provide a level of data security by enabling WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) for encryption of net-
work data. You can enable 40-, 128-, or 256-bit WEP Encryption (depending on the capability of your cli-
ent wireless card) for IP traffic on your LAN.
55
You select a single key for encryption of outbound traffic. The WEP-enabled client must have an identical
key of the same length, in the identical slot (1 – 4) as the Gateway, in order to successfully receive and
decrypt the traffic. Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’ key that it uses to encrypt its transmissions.
In order for the Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have the identical key of the same
length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a Gateway and its clients need only enter, share, and use the
first key.
Click the Submit button. The Alert icon appears.
Click the Alert icon, and then the Save and Restart link.
Administrator’s Handbook
56
Advanced
If you click the Advanced link, the advanced 802.11 Wireless Settings page appears.
Note: This page displays different options depending on which form of Privacy or other options you have
enabled.
You can then configure:
Operating Mode: The pull-down menu allows you to select and lock the Gateway into the wireless trans-
mission mode you want. For compatibility with clients using 802.11b (up to 11 Mbps transmission) and
802.11g (up to 20+ Mbps), select Normal (802.11b + g). To limit your wireless LAN to one mode or the
other, select 802.11b Only, or 802.11g Only.
NOTE:
If you choose to limit the operating mode to 802.11b or 802.11g only, clients using the mode
you excluded will not be able to connect.
Default Channel: on which the network will broadcast. This is a frequency range within the 2.4Ghz band.
Channel selection depends on government regulated radio frequencies that vary from region to region. The
widest range available is from 1 to 14. However, in North America only 1 to 11 may be selected. Europe,
57
France, Spain and Japan will differ. Channel selection can have a significant impact on per formance,
depending on other wireless activity close to this Gateway. Channel selection is not necessary at the client
computers; the clients will scan the available channels seeking access points using the same SSID as the
client.
AutoChannel Setting: For 802.11G models, AutoChannel is a feature that allows the Motorola Netopia®
Gateway to determine the best channel to broadcast automatically.
Three settings are available from the pull-down menu: Off-Use default, At Startup, and Continuous.
Off-Use default is the default setting; the Motorola Netopia® Gateway will use the configured default
channel selected from the previous pull-down menu.
At Startup causes the Motorola Netopia® Gateway at startup to briefly initialize on the default channel,
then perform a full two- to three-second scan, and switch to the best channel it can find, remaining on
that channel until the next reboot.
Continuous performs the at-startup scan, and will continuously monitor the current channel for any
other Access Point beacons. If an Access Point beacon is detected on the same channel, the Motorola
Netopia® Gateway will initiate a three- to four-minute scan of the channels, locate a better one, and
switch. Once it has switched, it will remain on this channel for at least 30 minutes before switching
again if another Access Point is detected.
Enable Closed System Mode: If enabled, Closed System Mode hides the wireless network from the scan-
ning features of wireless client computers. Unless both the wireless clients and the Router share the same
SSID in Closed System mode, the Router’s wireless LAN will not appear as an available network when
scanned for by wireless-enabled computers. Members of the Closed System WLAN must log onto the
Router’s wireless network with the identical SSID as that configured in the router.
Closed System mode is an ideal way to increase wireless security and to prevent casual detection by
unwanted neighbors, office users, or malicious users such as hackers.
If you do not enable Closed System Mode, it is more convenient, but potentially less secure, for clients to
access your WLAN by scanning available access points. You must decide based on your own network
requirements.
About Closed System Mode
Enabling Closed System Mode on your wireless Gateway provides another level of security, since your wire-
less LAN will no longer appear as an available access point to client PCs that are casually scanning for one.
Your own wireless network clients, however, must log into the wireless LAN by using the exact SSID of the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
In addition, if you have enabled WEP encryption on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway, your network clients
must also have WEP encryption enabled, and must have the same WEP encryption key as the Motorola
Netopia® Gateway.
Once the Motorola Netopia® Gateway is located by a client computer, by setting the client to a matching
SSID, the client can connect immediately if WEP is not enabled. If WEP is enabled then the client must also
have WEP enabled and a matching WEP key.
Wireless client cards from different manufacturers and different operating systems accomplish connecting
to a wireless LAN and enabling WEP in a variety of ways. Consult the documentation for your particular wire-
less card and/or operating system.
Administrator’s Handbook
58
NOTE:
While clients may also have a passphrase feature, these are vendor-specific and may not nec-
essarily create the same keys. You can passphrase generate a set of keys on one, and manu-
ally enter them on the other to get around this.
Block Wireless Bridging: Check the checkbox to block wireless clients from communicating with other
wireless clients on the LAN side of the Gateway.
WEP - Manual allows you to enter your own encryption keys manually. This is a difficult process, but
only needs to be done once. Avoid the temptation to enter all the same characters.
Encryption Key Size #1 – #4: Selects the length of each encryption key. The longer the key, the stronger
the encryption and the more difficult it is to break the encryption.
59
Encryption Key #1 – #4: The encryption keys. You enter keys using hexadecimal digits. For 40/64bit
encryption, you need ten digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Hexadecimal characters
are 0 – 9, and a – f.
Examples:
40bit: 02468ACE02
128bit: 0123456789ABCDEF0123456789
256bit: 592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F21A09C
Use WEP encryption key (1 – 4) #: Specifies which key the Gateway will use to encrypt transmitted traffic.
The default is key #1.
You disable the wireless LAN by unchecking the Enable Wireless checkbox, clicking the Submit button, fol-
lowed by the Save and Restart link.
WPA Version Allowed
If you select either WPA-802.1x or WPA-PSK as your privacy setting, the WPA Version Allowed pull-down
menu appears to allow you to select the WPA version(s) that will be required for client connections. Choices
are:
WPA Version 1 and 2, for maximum interoperability,
WPA Version 1 Only, for backward compatibility,
WPA Version 2 Only, for maximum security.
All clients must support the version(s) selected in order to successfully connect.
Multiple SSIDs
The Multiple Wireless SSIDs feature allows you to add additional network identifiers (SSIDs or Network
Names) for your wireless network.
To enable Multiple Wireless SSIDs, click the Multiple SSIDs link.
When the Multiple Wireless SSIDs screen appears, check the Enable SSID checkbox for each SSID you
want to enable.
Administrator’s Handbook
60
The screen expands to allow you to name each additional Wireless ID, and specify a Privacy mode for each
one.
61
Privacy modes available from the pull-down menu for the multiple SSIDs are: WPA-PSK, WPA-802.1x, or
Off-No Privacy. WEP can also be selected on the additional SSIDs as long as it is not used on the primary
SSID. WEP can only be used on one SSID, so any others will not have WEP available.
These additional Wireless IDs are “Closed System Mode” Wireless IDs that will not be shown by a client
scan, and therefore must be manually configured at the client. In addition, wireless bridging between clients
is disabled for all members of these additional network IDs.
Click the Submit button.
After your first entry, the Alert icon will appear in the upper right corner of your screen. When you are
finished adding SSIDs, click the Alert icon, and Save your changes and restart the Gateway.

WiFi Multimedia
WiFi Multimedia is an advanced feature that allows you to prioritize various types of data travelling over the
wireless network. Certain types of data that are sensitive to delays, such as voice or video, must be priori-
tized ahead of other, less delay-sensitive types, such as email.
WiFi Multimedia currently implements wireless Quality of Service (QoS) by transmitting data depending on
Diffserv priority settings. These priorities are mapped into four Access Categories (AC), in increasing order
of priority:
Background (BK),
Best Effort (BE),

WAN interface of your Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
WAN IP Interfaces: Your IP interfaces are listed.
PPP over Ethernet interface
Click the PPP over Ethernet link to configure it.
The WAN IP Interface page appears.
Enable Interface: You can disable the interface by unchecking the checkbox. However, doing so will dis-
able all ability for your LAN users to connect to the WAN using the Gateway.
Address Mapping (NAT): Specifies whether you want the Gateway to use network address translation
(NAT) when communicating with remote routers. NAT lets you conceal details of your network from remote
routers. By default, address mapping is enabled.
Administrator’s Handbook
68
Restrictions: This setting determines the types of traffic the Gateway accepts from the WAN. Admin Dis-
abled means that Gateway traffic is accepted but administrative commands are ignored. None means that
all traffic is accepted. When PPP is enabled, Admin Disabled is the default.
DHCP/PPPoE/PPPoA Autosensing:
The pull-down menu allows
you to select an autosens-
ing feature, or to disable it.
Selecting between PPPoE/
DHCP or PPPoE/PPPoA
enables automatic sensing
of your WAN connection
type. If you select PPPoE/
DHCP, the gateway
attempts to connect using
PPPoE first. If the Gateway
fails to connect after 60 seconds, it switches to DHCP. As soon as it can connect via DHCP, the Gateway
chooses and sets DHCP as its default. Otherwise, after attempting to connect via DHCP for 60 seconds,
the Gateway switches back to PPPoE. The Gateway will continue to switch back and forth in this manner
until it successfully connects. Similarly, selecting PPPoE/PPPoA causes the Gateway to attempt to con-
nect by trying these protocols in parallel, and using the first one that is successful. If you choose to disable
the feature, select Off.
ISP Username: This is the username used to authenticate your Gateway with the Service Provider's net-
work. This value is given to you by your Service Provider.
ISP Password: This is the password used to authenticate your Gateway with the Service Provider's net-
work. This value is given to you by your Service Provider.
Connection Type: The pull-down menu allows you to choose to have either an uninterrupted connection or
an as-needed connection.
Always On: This setting provides convenience, but it leaves your network permanently connected to
the Internet.
Instant On furnishes almost all the benefits of an Always On connection, but has additional security
benefits:
- Your network cannot be attacked when it is not connected.
- Your network may change address with each connection, making it more difficult to attack.
Timeout: (only appears if Instant-On Connection Type is selected) Specifies the time in seconds before dis-
connect if there is no traffic over the Internet link.
69
Advanced:
If you click the Advanced link, the Advanced WAN IP Interface configuration page appears.
Local Address: If this value is 0.0.0.0, the Gateway
will acquire its IP address from your ISP. Otherwise
this address is assigned to the virtual PPP interface.
Peer Address: Address of the server on the Service
Provider side of the ppp link. This peer will attempt to
negotiate the local IP address if IP Address =
0.0.0.0. If the remote peer does not accept the IP
address, the link will not come up.
RIP Receive Mode: Routing Information Protocol
(RIP) is needed if there are IP routers on other seg-
ments of your Ethernet network that the Motorola
Netopia® Gateway needs to recognize. Set to Off,
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 will not
accept information from either RIP-1 nor RIP-2 rout-
ers. With Receive RIP Mode set to RIP-1, the Motor-
ola Netopia® Gateway will accept routing information
provided by RIP packets from other routers that use
the same subnet mask. Set to RIP-2, Netopia
Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 will accept routing
information provided by RIP packets from other rout-
ers that use different subnet masks.
From the pull-down menu, choose Off, RIP-1, RIP-2,
RIP-1 compatibility, or RIP-2 with MD5.
RIP Receive MD5 Key: (Only appears if RIP-2 with
MD5 RIP Receive Mode is selected) The purpose of MD5 authentication is to provide an additional level of
confidence that a RIP packet received was generated by a reliable source. In other words, MD5 authentica-
tion provides an enhanced level of security that information that your PC receives does not originate from a
malicious source posing as part of your network. This field allows you to enter an MD5 encryption key of
from 1 – 16 ASCII characters for authenticating RIP receipts.
Multicast Forward: If you check this checkbox, this interface acts as an IGMP proxy host, and IGMP pack-
ets are transmitted and received on this interface on behalf of IGMP hosts on the LAN interface.
IGMP Null Source Address: If you check this checkbox, the source IP address of every IGMP packet trans-
mitted from this interface is set to 0.0.0.0. This complies with the requirements of TR-101, and removes
the need for a publicly advertised IP address on the WAN interface. This checkbox is only available if “Mul-
ticast Forward” is checked.

tem. The username and passwords are available on the WAN IP Interfaces page.
MRU: Specifies the Maximum Receive Unit for the PPP Interface.
Magic Number: Enables or disables LCP magic number negotiation.
Protocol Compression: Specifies whether you want the Gateway to compress the PPP Protocol field when
it transmits datagrams over the PPP link.
LCP Echo Requests: Specifies whether you want your Gateway to send LCP echo requests. You should
turn off LCP echoing if you do not want the Gateway to drop a PPP link to a nonresponsive peer.
Max Failures: Specifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the PPP module can send with-
out having sent a Configure-ACK message.
Max Configures: Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration requests that your
Gateway will send.
Max Terminates: Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination requests that your Gate-
way will send before terminating the PPP link.
Restart Timer: The number of seconds the Gateway should wait before retransmitting a configuration or
termination request.

Your Motorola Netopia® ADSL Gateway supports VPI/VCI autodetection by default. If VPI/VCI autodetec-
tion is enabled, the ATM Circuits page displays VPI/VCI = 0. If you configure a new ATM VPI/VCI pair,
upon saving and restarting, autodetection is disabled and only the new VPI/VCI pair configuration will be
enabled.
VPI/VCI Autodetection consists of eight static VPI/VCI pair configurations. These are 0/35, 8/35, 0/32,
8/32, 1/35, 1/1, 1/32, 2/32. These eight VPI/VCI pairs will be created if the Gateway is configured for
autodetection. the Gateway does not establish a circuit using any of these preconfigured VPI/VCI pairs,
then you can manually enter a VPI/VCI pair in the ATM Circuits page.
PPPoE with IPoE: For ADSL Gateways, you must configure two VCCs with the same VPI/VCI settings to
provide concurrent PPPoE with IPoE support.
You must use fixed VPI/VCI values for PPPoE with IPoE. You cannot have both VPI/VCI values set to 0/0;
autodetection does not work in this mode.
75
Once the VCCs have been configured,
the WAN IP Interfaces screen displays
the additional interface which you can
then configure as required.

ATM Traffic Shaping: You can prioritize delay-sensitive data by configuring the Quality of Service (QoS)
characteristics of the virtual circuit. Click the ATM Traffic Shaping link.
You can choose UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate), CBR (Constant Bit Rate), or VBR (Variable Bit Rate) from the
pull-down menu and set the Peak Cell Rate (PCR) in the editable field.
UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate) guarantees no minimum transmission rate. Cells are transmitted on a
“best effort” basis. However, there is a cap on the maximum transmission rate for UBR VCs. In a practi-
cal situation:
• UBR VCs should be transmitted at a priority lower than CBR.
• Bandwidth should be shared equally among UBR VCs.
UBR applications are non-real-time traffic such as IP data traffic.
CBR (Constant Bit Rate) guarantees a certain transmission rate (although the application may
underutilize this bandwidth). A Peak Cell Rate (PCR) characterizes CBR. CBR is most suited for real time
applications such as real time voice / video, although it can be used for other applications.
VBR (Variable Bit Rate) This class is characterized by:
• a Peak Cell Rate (PCR), which is a temporary burst, not a sustained rate, and
• a Sustained Cell Rate (SCR),
• a Burst Tolerance (BT), specified in terms of Maximum Burst Size (MBS). The MBS is the maximum
number of cells that can be transmitted at the peak cell rate and should be less than, or equal to the
Peak Cell Rate, which should be less than, or equal to the line rate.
VBR has two sub-classes:
a. VBR non-real-time (VBR-nrt): Typical applications are non-real-time traffic, such as IP data traffic. This
class yields a fair amount of Cell Delay Variation (CDV).
b. VBR real time (VBR-rt): Typical applications are real-time traffic, such as compressed voice over IP
and video conferencing. This class transmits cells with a more tightly bounded Cell Delay Variation. The
applications follow CBR.
Note:
The difference between VBR-rt and VBR-nrt is the tolerated Cell Delay Variation range and the
provisioned Maximum Burst Size.
77
Class PCR SCR MBS Transmit Priority Comments
UBR X N/A N/A Low PCR is a cap
CBR X N/A N/A High PCR is a guaranteed rate
VBR X X X High PCR > SCR.
SCR is a guaranteed rate.
PCR is a cap.

Selected Advanced options are discussed in the pages that follow. Many are self-explanatory or are dic-
tated by your service provider.
The following are typical links under Configure -> Advanced (some models offer other links):
79
Link: IP Static Routes
A static route identifies a manually configured pathway to a remote network. Unlike dynamic routes, which
are acquired and confirmed periodically from other routers, static routes do not time out. Consequently,
static routes are useful when working with PPP, since an intermittent PPP link may make maintenance of
dynamic routes problematic.
When you click the Static Routes link, the IP Static Routes page appears.
You can configure as many as 32 static IP routes for the Gateway. To add a static route, click the Add but-
ton.
The IP Static Route Entry page appears.
Destination Network: Enter the IP address of the static route. It may not be 0.0.0.0.
Netmask: Enter the subnet mask for the IP network at the other end of the static route. The subnet
mask associated with the destination network must represent the same network class (A, B, or C) or a
lower class (such as a class C subnet mask or class B network number) to be valid.
Interface Type: Choose PPP (vcc1) – depending on the interface; typically vcc1 for DSL – or IP Address
from the pull-down menu to specify whether the static route is accessible through PPP or IP address.
Gateway: Enter the IP address of the gateway for the static route. The default gateway must be located
on a network connected to your Motorola Netopia® Gateway configured interface.
Metric: Specifies the hop count for the static route. Enter a number from 1 to 15 to indicate the number
of routes (actual or best guess) a packet must traverse to reach the remote network. Some metric or a
value of 1 will be used to indicate:
• The remote network is one router away and the static route is the best way to
reach it.
• The remote network is more than one router away but the static route should not
be replaced by a dynamic route, even if the dynamic route is more efficient.
Administrator’s Handbook
80
RIP Advertise: From the pull-down menu, choose how the static route should be advertised via RIP:
Split Horizon: Do not advertise route if the gateway is on the same subnet.
Always: Advertise route in all RIP messages.
Never: Do not advertise route.
Click the Submit button. The Alert icon will appear, so that you can switch to the Save Changes
page, when you are finished.
Once you save your changes, you will be returned to the IP Static Routes entry screen.
You can continue to Add, Edit, or Delete Static Routes from this screen.
When you are finished, click the Alert icon , switch to the Save Changes page, and click the Save
Changes link.
81
Link: IP Static ARP
Your Gateway maintains a dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table to map IP addresses to Ether-
net (MAC) addresses. It populates this ARP table dynamically, by retrieving IP address/MAC address pairs
only when it needs them. Optionally, you can define static ARP entries to map IP addresses to their corre-
sponding Ethernet MAC addresses. Unlike dynamic ARP table entries, static ARP table entries do not time
out. The IP address cannot be 0.0.0.0. The Ethernet MAC address entry is in nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn (hexadeci-
mal) format.
Administrator’s Handbook
82
Link: Pinholes
Pinholes allow you to transparently route selected types of network traffic, such as FTP requests or HTTP
(Web) connections, to a specific host behind the Gateway. Creating a pinhole allows access traffic originat-
ing from a remote connection (WAN) to be sent to the internal computer (LAN) that is specified in the Pin-
hole page.
Pinholes are common for applications like multiplayer online games. Refer to software manufacturer appli-
cation documentation for specific traffic types and port numbers.
Configure Specific Pinholes. Planning for Your Pinholes. Determine if any of the service
applications that you want to provide on your LAN stations use TCP or UDP protocols. If an application does,
then you must configure a pinhole to implement port forwarding. This is accessed from the Advanced ->
Pinholes page.
Example: A LAN Requiring Three Pinholes . The procedure on the following pages describes
how you set up your NAT-enabled Motorola Netopia® Gateway to support three separate applications. This
requires passing three kinds of specific IP traffic through to your LAN.
Application 1
: You have a Web server located on your LAN behind your Motorola Netopia® Gateway and
would like users on the Internet to have access to it. With NAT “On”, the only externally visible IP address
on your network is the Gateway’s WAN IP (supplied by your Service Provider). All traffic intended for that LAN
Web server must be directed to that IP address.
Application 2
: You want one of your LAN stations to act as the “central repository” for all email for all of
the LAN users.
Application 3
: One of your LAN stations is specially configured for game applications. You want this spe-
cific LAN station to be dedicated to games.
A sample table to plan the desired pinholes is:
For this example, Internet protocols TCP and UDP must be passed through the NAT security feature and the
Gateway’s embedded Web (HTTP) port must be re-assigned by configuring new settings on the Internal
Servers page.
WAN Traffic Type Protocol Pinhole Name LAN Internal IP
Address
Web TCP my-webserver 192.168.1.1
Email TCP my-mailserver 192.168.1.2
Games UDP my-games 192.168.1.3
83
TIPS for making Pinhole Entries:
1. If the port forwarding feature is required for Web services, ensure that the embedded Web
server’s port number is re-assigned PRIOR to any Pinhole data entry.
2. Enter data for one Pinhole at a time.
3. Use a unique name for each Pinhole. If you choose a duplicate name, it will overwrite the
previous information without warning.
A diagram of this LAN example is:
You can also use the LAN-side address of the Gateway, 192.168.1.x:8100 to access the web and
192.168.1.x:23 to access the telnet server.

Pinhole Configuration Procedure. Use the following steps:
1. From the Configure toolbar button -> Advanced link, select the Internal Servers link.
Since Port Forwarding is required for this example, the Motorola Netopia® embedded Web server is con-
figured first.
NOTE:
The two text boxes, Web (HTTP) Server Port and Telnet Server Port, on this page refer to
the port numbers of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway’s embedded administration ports.
To pass Web traffic through to your LAN station(s), select a Web (HTTP) Port number that is greater than
1024. In this example, you choose 8100.
2. Type 8100 in the Web (HTTP) Server Port text box.
3. Click the Submit button.
4. Click Advanced. Select the Pinholes link to go to the Pinhole page.
5. Click Add. Type your specific data into the Pinhole Entries table of this page. Click Sub-
mit.
85
6. Click on the Add or Edit more Pinholes link. Click the Add button. Add the next Pinhole.
Type the specific data for the second Pinhole.
7. Click on the Add or Edit more Pinholes link. Click the Add button. Add the next Pinhole.
Type the specific data for the third Pinhole.
NOTE:
Note the following parameters for the “my-games” Pinhole:
1. The Protocol ID is UDP.
2. The external port is specified as a range.
3. The Internal port is specified as the lower range entry.
Administrator’s Handbook
86
8. Click on the Add or Edit more Pinholes link. Review your entries to be sure they are cor-
rect.
9. Click the Alert icon.
10. Click the Save and Restart link to complete the entire Pinhole creation task and ensure
that the parameters are properly saved.
NOTE:
REMEMBER: When you have re-assigned the port address for the embedded Web server, you
can still access this facility.
Use the Gateway’s WAN address plus the new port number.
In this example it would be
<WAN Gateway address>:<new port number> or, in this case, 210.219.41.20:8100
You can also use the LAN-side address of the Gateway, 192.168.1.x:8100 to access the web
and 192.168.1.x:23 to access the telnet server.
87
Link: IPMaps
IPMaps supports one-to-one Network Address Translation (NAT) for IP addresses assigned to servers,
hosts, or specific computers on the LAN side of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
A single static or dynamic (DHCP) WAN IP address must be assigned to support other devices on the LAN.
These devices utilize Motorola Netopia®’s default NAT/PAT capabilities.
Configure the IPMaps Feature
FAQs for the IPMaps Feature
Before configuring an example of an IPMaps-enabled network, review these frequently asked questions.
What are IPMaps and how are they used? The IPMaps feature allows multiple static WAN IP
addresses to be assigned to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
Static WAN IP addresses are used to support specific services, like a web server, mail server, or DNS
server. This is accomplished by mapping a separate static WAN IP address to a specific internal LAN IP
address. All traffic arriving at the Gateway intended for the static IP address is transferred to the internal
device. All outbound traffic from the internal device appears to originate from the static IP address.
Locally hosted servers are supported by a public IP address while LAN users behind the NAT-enabled IP
address are protected.
IPMaps is compatible with the use of NAT, with either a statically assigned IP address or DHCP/PPP served
IP address for the NAT table.
What types of servers are supported by IPMaps? IPMaps allows a Motorola Netopia® Gate-
way to support servers behind the Gateway, for example, web, mail, FTP, or DNS servers. VPN servers are
not supported at this time.
Can I use IPMaps with my PPPoE or PPPoA connection? Yes. IPMaps can be assigned to
the WAN interface provided they are on the same subnet. Service providers will need to ensure proper
routing to all IP addresses assigned to your WAN interface.
Will IPMaps allow IP addresses from different subnets to be assigned to my Gate-
way? IPMap will support statically assigned WAN IP addresses from the same subnet.
WAN IP addresses from different subnets are not supported.

Link: Default Server
This feature allows you to:
Direct your Gateway to forward all externally initiated IP traffic (TCP and UDP protocols only) to a default
host on the LAN.
Enable it for certain situations:
– Where you cannot anticipate what port number or packet protocol an in-bound application might
use. For example, some network games select arbitrary port numbers when a connection is
opened.
– When you want all unsolicited traffic to go to a specific LAN host.
Configure for IP Passthrough.
Configure a Default Server. This feature allows you to direct unsolicited or non-specific traffic to a
designated LAN station. With NAT “On” in the Gateway, these packets normally would be discarded.
For instance, this could be application traffic where you don’t know (in advance) the port or protocol that
will be used. Some game applications fit this profile.
Use the following steps to setup a NAT default server to receive this information:
1. Select the Configure toolbar button, then Advanced, then the Default Server link.
2. From the pull-down menu, select Default-Server.
The NAT Server IP Address field appears.
3. Determine the IP address of the LAN computer you have chosen to receive the unex-
pected or unknown traffic.
Enter this address in the NAT Server IP Address field.
4. Click the Submit button.
5. Click the Alert button.
6. Click the Save and Restart link to confirm.

You can also use the LAN-side address of the Gateway, 192.168.1.x to access the web and telnet server.
NAT Combination Application. Motorola Netopia®’s NAT security feature allows you to configure a
sophisticated LAN layout that uses both the Pinhole and Default Server capabilities.
With this topology, you configure the embedded administration ports as a first task, followed by the Pin-
holes and, finally, the NAT Default Server.
When using both NAT pinholes and NAT Default Server the Gateway works with the following rules (in
sequence) to forward traffic from the Internet to the LAN:
1. If the packet is a response to an existing connection created by outbound traffic from a
LAN PC, forward to that station.
2. If not, check for a match with a pinhole configuration and, if one is found, forward the
packet according to the pinhole rule.
3. If there’s no pinhole, the packet is forwarded to the Default Server.
IP-Passthrough. Your Gateway offers an IP passthrough feature. The IP passthrough feature allows a
single PC on the LAN to have the Gateway’s public address assigned to it. It also provides PAT (NAPT) via
the same public IP address for all other hosts on the private LAN subnet. Using IP passthrough:
The public WAN IP is used to provide IP address translation for private LAN computers.
The public WAN IP is assigned and reused on a LAN computer.

DHCP address serving can automatically serve the WAN IP address to a LAN computer.
When DHCP is used for addressing the designated passthrough PC, the acquired or configured WAN
address is passed to DHCP, which will dynamically configure a single-servable-address subnet, and
reserve the address for the configured MAC address. This dynamic subnet configuration is based on the
local and remote WAN address and subnet mask. If the WAN interface does not have a suitable subnet
mask that is usable, for example when using PPP or PPPoE, the DHCP subnet configuration will default
to a class C subnet mask.
If you want to manually assign the WAN address to a LAN PC, do not check the DHCP Enable checkbox.
If you check the DHCP Enable checkbox, the screen expands.
The Host Hardware Address field displays. Here you enter the MAC address of the designated IP-
Passthrough computer.
If this MAC address is not all zeroes, then it will use DHCP to set the LAN host's address to the (config-
ured or acquired) WAN IP address.
The MAC address must be six colon-delimited or dash-delimited sets of hex digits ('0' – 'FF').
If you leave the MAC address as zeros then the first DHCP client will be assigned the WAN address.
Once configured, the passthrough host's DHCP leases will be shortened to two minutes. This allows for
timely updates of the host's IP address, which will be a private IP address before the WAN connection is
established. After the WAN connection is established and has an address, the passthrough host can renew
its DHCP address binding to acquire the WAN IP address.
A restriction. Since both the Gateway and the passthrough host will use the same IP address, new ses-
sions that conflict with existing sessions will be rejected by the Gateway. For example, suppose you are a
teleworker using an IPSec tunnel from the Gateway and from the passthrough host. Both tunnels go to the
same remote endpoint, such as the VPN access concentrator at your employer’s office. In this case, the
first one to start the IPSec traffic will be allowed; the second one – since, from the WAN, it's indistinguish-
able – will fail.

Link: Differentiated Services
When you click the Differentiated Services link, the Differentiated Services configuration screen
appears.
Differentiated Services (Diffserv) allow your Gateway to make Quality of Service (QoS) decisions about
what path Internet traffic, such as Voice over IP (VoIP), should travel across your network. For example, you
may want streaming video conferencing to use high quality, but more restrictive, connections, or, you might
want e-mail to use less restrictive, but less reliable, connections.
VDSL and Bonded ADSL models display this screen:
Most other models display this screen:
To enable Differentiated Services, check the Enable checkbox.
(Not displayed on VDSL and Bonded ADSL models) Enter a value from 60 to 100 (percent) in the Low-
High Priority Ratio field. The default is 92.
Differentiated Services uses the low-to-high priority queue ratio to regulate traffic flow. For example, to
provide the least possible latency and highest possible throughput for high priority traffic, you could set
the ratio to 100(%). This would cause the gateway to forward low priority data only after the high priority
queue is completely empty. In practice, you should set it to something less than 100%, since the low pri-
ority traffic might have to wait too long to be passed, and consequently be subject to time-outs.
Click the Submit button.
You can then define Custom Flows. If your applications do not provide Quality of Service (QoS) control, Cus-
tom Flows allows you to define streams for some protocols, port ranges, and between specific end point
addresses.
93
To define a custom flow, click the Add button.
The Custom Flow Entry screen appears.
• Name – Enter a name in this field to label the flow.
• Protocol – Select the protocol from the pull-down
menu: TCP (default), UDP, ICMP, or Other. “Other” is
appropriate for setting up flows on protocols with non-
standard port definitions. IPSEC and PPTP are common
examples.
• Numerical Protocol – If you select “Other” protocol,
this field appears for you to provide its actual protocol
number, with a range of 0 – 255.
• Direction – Choose Outbound (default), Inbound, or
Both from the pull-down menu.
• Start Port – For TCP or UDP protocols, you can option-
ally specify a range of ports. Enter the starting port here.
• End Port – Enter the ending port here.
• Inside IP Address/Netmask – For outbound flows,
specify an IP address/netmask on your LAN. For inbound
flows, this setting is ignored. This setting marks packets
from this LAN IP host/network based on the address and
netmask information. For outbound flows, the Inside IP
Address/Netmask is the source address. If you enter a
zero IP address (0.0.0.0), the IP address/netmask fields
will be ignored.
• Outside IP Address/Netmask – If you want traffic destined for and originating from a certain WAN IP
address to be controlled, enter the IP address and subnet mask here. If you leave the default all-zeroes,
the outside address check is ignored.
For outbound flows, the outside address is the destination IP address for traffic; for inbound packets,
the outside address is the source IP address.
Note:
When setting the Inside/Outside IP Address/Netmask settings, note that a netmask value can be used
to configure for a network rather than a single IP address.
Administrator’s Handbook
94
• Quality of Service (QoS) – This is the Quality of Service setting for the flow, based on the TOS bit
information. Select Expedite, Assure, or Off (default) from the pull-down menu. The following table out-
lines the TOS bit settings and behavior:
QoS Setting TOS Bit Value Behavior
Off TOS=000 This custom flow is disabled. You can activate it by selecting one
of the two settings below. This setting allows you to pre-define
flows without actually activating them.
Assure TOS=001 Use normal queuing and throughput rules, but do not drop pack-
ets if possible. Appropriate for applications with no guaranteed
delivery mechanism.
Expedite TOS=101 Use minimum delay. Appropriate for VoIP and video applications.
Network Control TOS=111 Use highest possible priority.
95
Link: DNS
Your Service Provider may maintain a Domain Name server. If you have the information for the DNS serv-
ers, enter it on the DNS page. If your Gateway is configured to use DHCP to obtain its WAN IP address, the
DNS information is automatically obtained from that same DHCP Server.
Administrator’s Handbook
96
Link: DHCP Server
Your Gateway can provide network configuration information to computers on your LAN, using the Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
If you already have a DHCP server on your LAN, you should turn this service off.
If you want the Gateway to provide this service, select Server from the Server Mode pull-down menu,
then configure the range of IP addresses that you would like the Gateway to hand out to your computers.
You can also specify the length of time the computers can use the configuration information; DHCP calls
this period the lease time.
Your Service Provider may, for certain services, want to provide configuration from its DHCP servers to the
computers on your LANs. In this case, the Gateway will relay the DHCP requests from your computers to a
DHCP server in the Service Provider's network.
Select Relay-agent and enter the IP address of the Service Provider's DHCP server in the Server Address
field. This address is furnished by the Service Provider.
NOTE:
The relay-agent option only works when NAT is off and the Gateway is in router mode.
97
Link: RADIUS Server
RADIUS servers allow external authentication of users by means of a remote authentication database. The
remote authentication database is maintained by a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS)
server. In conjunction with Wireless User Authentication, you can use a RADIUS server database to authen-
ticate users seeking access to the wireless services, as well as the authorized user list maintained locally
within the Gateway.
If you click the RADIUS link, the RADIUS Servers screen appears.
RADIUS Server Addr/Name: The default RADIUS server name or IP address that you want to use.
RADIUS Server Secret: The RADIUS secret key used by this server. The shared secret should have the
same characteristics as a normal password.
RADIUS Server Port: The port on which the RADIUS server is listening, typically, the default 1812.
Click the Submit button.
You can also configure alternate RADIUS servers from the Wireless Configuration pages. See Use RADIUS
Server” on page 65 for more information.

Link: SNMP
When you click the SNMP link, the SNMP configuration page appears.
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets a network administrator monitor problems on a net-
work by retrieving settings on remote network devices. The network administrator typically runs an SNMP
management station program on a local host to obtain information from an SNMP agent. In this case, the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway is an SNMP agent. Your Gateway supports SNMP-V1, with the exception of
most sets (read-only and traps), and SNMP-V2. (For certain parts of the NPAV2TRAP.MIB – parameters under
resNatParams, resDslParams, resSecParams – set is supported.)
You enter SNMP configuration information on this page. Your network administrator furnishes the SNMP
parameters.
WARNING:
SNMP presents you with a security issue. The community facility of SNMP behaves
somewhat like a password. The community “public” is a well-known community name.
It could be used to examine the configuration of your Gateway by your service provider
or an uninvited reviewer. The information can be read from the Gateway.
If you are strongly concerned about security, you may leave the “public” community
blank.
99
The Notification Type pull-down menu allows you to configure the type of SNMP notifications that will be
generated:
v1 Trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv1 Trap Protocol Data Unit (PDU)
v2 Trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv2 Trap PDU
Inform – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv2 InformRequest PDU.
To send SNMP traps, you must add IP addresses for each trap receiver you want to have. Click the Add
button.
The IP Trap Entry screen appears.
Enter an IP Trap Entry IP address. This is the destination for SNMP trap messages, the IP address of the
host acting as an SNMP console.
Click the Submit button. Click the Alert icon, and in the resulting page, click the Save and Restart link.

Link: IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)
Multicasting is a method for transmitting large amounts of information to many, but not all, computers
over an internet. One common use is to distribute real time voice, video, and data services to the set of
computers which have joined a distributed conference. Other uses include updating the address books of
mobile computer users in the field, or sending out company newsletters to a distribution list.
Since a router should not be used as a passive forwarding device, Motorola Netopia® Gateways use a pro-
tocol for forwarding multicasting: Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP).
Motorola Netopia® Gateways support IGMP Version 1, Version 2, or, beginning with Motorola Netopia®
Firmware Version 7.7, Version 3.
See the “Advanced” option in “LAN” on page 49 for more information.
IGMP “Snooping” is a feature of Ethernet layer 2 switches that “listens in” on the IGMP conversation
between computers and multicast routers. Through this process, it builds a database of where the multi-
cast routers reside by noting IGMP general queries used in the querier selection process and by listening to
other router protocols.
From the host point of view, the snooping function listens at a port level for an IGMP report. The switch
then processes the IGMP report and starts forwarding the relevant multicast stream onto the host's port.
When the switch receives an IGMP leave message, it processes the leave message, and if appropriate
stops the multicast stream to that particular port. Basically, customer IGMP messages although processed
by the switch are also sent to the multicast routers.
In order for IGMP snooping to function with IGMP Version 3, it must always track the full source filter state
of each host on each group, as was previously done with Version 2 only when Fast Leave support was
enabled.
IGMP Version 3 supports:
IGMP Source Filtering: the ability for group memberships to incorporate source address filtering. This allows
“Source-Specific Multicast” (SSM). By adding source filtering, a Gateway that proxies IGMP can more selec-
tively join the specific multicast group for which there are interested LAN multicast receivers.
These features require no user configuration on the Gateway.
To configure IGMP options available in Motorola Netopia® Gateways, click the IGMP link.
101
The IGMP page appears.
You can set the following options:
IGMP Snooping – checking this checkbox enables the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway to “listen in” to IGMP traffic.
The Gateway discovers multicast group membership for
the purpose of restricting multicast transmissions to only
those ports which have requested them. This helps to
reduce overall network traffic from streaming media and
other bandwidth-intensive IP multicast applications.
Robustness – a way of indicating how sensitive to lost
packets the network is. IGMP can recover from robustness
minus 1 lost IGMP packet. The default value is 2.
Query Interval– the amount of time in seconds between
IGMP General Query messages sent by the querier gate-
way. The default query interval is 125 seconds.
Query Response Interval – the maximum amount of
time in tenths of a second that the IGMP router waits to
receive a response to a General Query message. The
default query response interval is 10 seconds and must
be less than the query interval.
Unsolicited Report Interval – the amount of time in
seconds between repetitions of a particular computer’s initial report of membership in a group. The
default unsolicited report interval is 10 seconds.
Querier Version – Select a version of the IGMP Querier from the pull-down menu: v1, v2, or v3. The
default v3 allows for backward compatibility mode with the earlier versions, and should not need to be
changed. However, for administrative purposes you may select either v1 or v2.
Last Member Query Interval – the amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP gateway waits
to receive a response to a Group-Specific Query message. The last member query interval is also the
amount of time in seconds between successive Group-Specific Query messages. The default last mem-
ber query interval is 1 second (10 deci-seconds).
Last Member Query Count – the number of Group-Specific Query messages sent before the gateway
assumes that there are no members of the host group being queried on this interface. The default last
member query count is 2.
Fast Leave – Checking this checkbox enables a non-standard expedited leave mechanism. The querier
keeps track of which client is requesting which channel by IP address. When a leave message is
received, the querier can check its internal table to see if there are any more clients on this group. If
there are none, it immediately sends an IGMP leave message to the upstream querier. By default, Fast
Leave is set to Off.
Log Enable – If you check this checkbox, all IGMP messages on both the LAN and the WAN will be
logged.
Wireless Multicast to Unicast conversion – This checkbox only appears if IGMP Snooping is
enabled. If you check this checkbox, the Gateway replaces the multicast MAC-address with the physical
MAC-address of the wireless client. If there is more than one wireless client interested in the same mul-
ticast group, the router will revert to multicasting the stream immediately. When one or more wireless
clients leave a group, and the router determines that only a single wireless client is interested in the
stream, it will once again unicast the stream.

Link: UPnP
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) is a set of protocols that allows a PC to automatically discover other UPnP
devices (anything from an internet gateway device to a light switch), retrieve an XML description of the
device and its services, control the device, and subscribe to real-time event notification.
By default, UPnP is enabled on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
For Windows XP users, the automatic discovery feature places an icon representing
the Motorola Netopia® Gateway automatically in the “My Network Places” folder.
Double-clicking this icon opens the Gateway’s web UI.
PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway’s WAN IP address, and automatically cre-
ate NAT port maps. This means that applications that support UPnP, and are used
with a UPnP-enabled Motorola Netopia® Gateway, will not need application layer
gateway support on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to work through NAT.
You can disable UPnP, if you are not using any UPnP devices or applications.
Uncheck the UPnP Enabled checkbox, and click the Submit button.
The Alert icon will appear in the upper right corner of the web page. Click the Alert icon, and when
prompted, click the Save and Restart link.
103
Link: LAN Management
TR-064 is a LAN-side DSL Gateway configuration specification. It is an extension of UPnP. It defines more
services to locally manage the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. While UPnP allows open access to configure
the Gateway's features, TR-064 requires a password to execute any command that changes the Gateway's
configuration.
TR-064 is enabled by default. To disable it:
Uncheck the Enabled checkbox, and click the Submit button.

Link: Ethernet Bridge
The Motorola Netopia® Gateway can be used as a bridge, rather than a router. A bridge is a device that
joins two networks. As an Internet access device, a bridge connects the home computer directly to the ser-
vice provider’s network equipment with no intervening routing functionality, such as Network Address Trans-
lation. Your home computer becomes just another address on the service provider’s network. In a DSL
connection, the bridge serves simply to convey the digital data information back and forth over your tele-
phone lines in a form that keeps it separate from your voice telephone signals.
If your service provider’s network is set up to provide your Internet connectivity via bridge mode, you can set
your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to be compatible.
Bridges let you join two networks, so that they appear to be part of the same physical network. As a bridge
for protocols other than TCP/IP, your Gateway keeps track of as many as 512 MAC (Media Access Control)
addresses, each of which uniquely identifies an individual host on a network. Your Gateway uses this bridg-
ing table to identify which hosts are accessible through which of its network interfaces. The bridging table
contains the MAC address of each packet it sees, along with the interface over which it received the
packet. Over time, the Gateway learns which hosts are available through its WAN port and/or its LAN port.
When configured in Bridge Mode, the Motorola Netopia® will act as a pass-through device and allow the
workstations on your LAN to have public addresses directly on the internet.
NOTE:
In this mode the Motorola Netopia® is providing NO firewall protection as is afforded by NAT.
Also, only the workstations that have a public address can access the internet. This can be
useful if you have multiple static public IPs on the LAN.
Bridging per WAN is supported in conjunction with VLANs – individual WANs can be bridged to the LAN only
if the WANs are part of a VLAN. (See “VLAN” on page 107 for more information.) The capability to bridge
individual VLANs is supported only if the underlying encapsulation is RFC1483-Bridged (ether-llc).
105
Configuring for Bridge Mode
1. Browse into the Motorola Netopia® Gateway’s web interface.
2. Click on the Configure button in the upper Menu bar.
3. Click on the LAN link.
The LAN page appears.
4. In the box titled LAN IP Interface (Ethernet
100BT):
Make note of the Ethernet IP Address and subnet mask.
You can use this address to access the router in the future.
5. Click on the Advanced link in the left-hand links
toolbar.
6. Under the heading of Services, click on the Ether-
net Bridge link.
The Ethernet Bridge page appears.
The appearance of this page varies, depending on your
Gateway’s interfaces.
7. If available:
a. Check the Enable Bridging on Port selection. (This
may be Always On.)
b. Click Submit.
8. If you want the Gateway to do both bridging
and routing, check the Enable Concurrent
Bridging/Routing checkbox.
When this mode is enabled, the Gateway will appear to
be a router, but also bridge traffic from the LAN if it has
a valid LAN-side address.
9. Check the Enable System Bridge checkbox.
The window shrinks.

106
b. Click Submit.
At this point you should be ready to do the final save on the configuration
changes you have made.
The yellow Alert symbol will appear beneath the Help button on the right-hand
end of the menu bar.
10. Click on the Alert symbol and you will see whether your changes
have been validated.
11. If you are satisfied with the changes you have made, click Save and Restart in the Save
Database box to Apply changes and restart Gateway.
You have now configured your Motorola Netopia® Gateway for bridging, and it will bridge all traffic across
the WAN. You will need to make configurations to your machines on your LAN. These settings must be made
in accordance with your ISP. If you ever need to get back into the Motorola Netopia® Gateway again for
management reasons, you will need to manually configure your machine to be in the same subnet as the
Ethernet inter face of the Motorola Netopia®, since DHCP server is not operational in bridge mode.

Link: VLAN
When you click the VLAN link the VLANs page appears.
Overview
A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a network of computers or other devices that behave as if they are
connected to the same wire even though they may be physically located on different segments of a LAN.
You set up VLANs by configuring the Gateway software rather than hardware. This makes VLANs very flexi-
ble. VLANs behave like separate and independent networks.
Beginning with Version 7.7.4, VLANs are now strictly layer 2 entities. They can be thought of as virtual
Ethernet switches, into which can be added: Ethernet ports, router IP interfaces, ATM PVC/VCC interfaces,
SSIDs, and any other physical port such as USB, HPNA, or MOCA. This allows great flexibility on how the
components of a system are connected to each other.
VLANs are part of Motorola’s VGx Virtual Gateway technology which allows individual port-based VLANs to
be treated as separate and distinct “channels.” When data is passed to a Motorola Netopia VGx-enabled
broadband gateway, specific policies, routing, and prioritization parameters can be applied to each individ-
ual service, delivering that service to the appropriate peripheral device with the required level of quality of
service (QoS). In effect, a single Motorola gateway acts as separate virtual gateways for each distinct ser-
vice being delivered.
Motorola’s VGx technology maps multiple local VLANs to one or more specific permanent virtual circuits
(PVCs) for DSL, or wide area network VLANs for a fiber network. VGx provides service segmentation and
QoS controls, service management, and supports delivery of triple play applications: voice for IP Telephony,
video for IPTV, and data.
Your Gateway supports the following:
Port-based VLANs - these can be used when no trunking is required
Global VLANs - these are used when trunking is required on any port member of the VLAN
- Supports 802.1q and 802.1p; both are configurable
Routed VLANs

- WAN-side VLAN with Multiple WAN IPoE interface support and IP interface-to-VLAN binding
- LAN-side VLAN with IP interface-to-VLAN binding
- Inter-VLAN routing
Bridged VLANs - these VLANs are used to bridge traffic from LAN to WAN
Prioritization per VLAN and per port
Ethernet Switching/Policy Setup
Before you configure any VLANs, the unconfigured Gateway is set up as a router composed of a LAN switch,
a WAN switch, and a router in the middle, with LAN and WAN IP interfaces connected to their respective
switches. These bindings between Ethernet switch ports, IP LAN interface, IP WAN interface and WAN phys-
ical ports are automatically created.
When you configure any VLANs, the default bindings are no longer valid, and the system requires explicit
binding between IP interfaces and layer 2 inter faces. Each VLAN can be thought of as a layer 2 switch, and
enabling each port or interface in a VLAN is analogous to plugging it in to the layer 2 switch.
Thereafter, in order for devices to communicate on layer 2, they must be associated in the same VLAN. For
devices to communicate at layer 3, the devices must be either on the same VLAN, or on VLANs that have an
Inter-VLAN routing group enabled in common.
When configuring VLANs you must define how traffic needs to be forwarded:
If traffic needs to be bridged between LAN and WAN you can create a single VLAN that encompasses the
WAN port and LAN ports.
If traffic needs to be routed then you must define four elements:
• LAN-side VLANs
• WAN-side VLANs
• Associate IP Interfaces to VLANs
• Inter-VLAN Routing Groups: configuration of routing between VLANs is done by association of a VLAN
to a Routing Group. Traffic will be routed between VLANs within a routing group. The LAN IP Ethernet
Interface can be bound to multiple LAN VLANs, but forwarding can be limited between an Ethernet LAN
port and a WAN VLAN if you properly configure Inter-VLAN groups.
Inter-VLAN groups are also used to block routing between WAN interfaces. If each WAN IP interface is
bound to its own VLAN and if you configure a different Inter-VLAN group for each WAN VLAN then no rout-
ing between WAN IP interfaces is possible.
Example: to route between a VCC and all the LAN ports, which effectively is similar to the default config-
uration without any VLANs:
Create a VLAN named "VccWan" consisting of vcc1, ip-vcc1, routing-group 1
Create a VLAN named "Lan" consisting of eth0.1, eth0.2, eth0.3, eth0.4, ssid1, ssid2, ssid3, ssid4
(etc.), ip-eth-a, routing-group 1
109
An example of multiple VLANs, using a Motorola Netopia® Gateway with VGx managed switch technology, is
shown below:
A VLAN Model Combining Bridging and Routing
To configure VLANs check the Enable checkbox.
To create a VLAN select a list item from the main VLAN page and click the Edit button.
Administrator’s Handbook
110
The VLAN Entry page appears.
Check the Enable checkbox, and enter a descriptive name for the VLAN.
You can create up to 16 VLANs, and you can also restrict any VLAN, and the computers on it, from adminis-
tering the Gateway.
VLAN Name – A descriptive name for the VLAN.
Type – LAN or WAN Port(s) can be enabled on the VLAN. You can choose a type designation as follows:
By-Port: indicates that the VLAN is port-based. Traffic sent to this port will be treated as belonging to
the VLAN, and will not be forwarded to other ports that are not within a common VLAN segment.
Global indicates that the ports joining this VLAN are part of a global 802.1q Ethernet VLAN. This VLAN
includes ports on this Router and may include ports within other devices throughout the network. The
VID in this case may define the behavior of traffic between all devices on the network having ports that
are members of this VLAN segment.
111
VLAN ID – If you select Global as the VLAN Type, the VLAN ID field appears for you to enter a VID. This
must be a unique identifying number between 1 and 4094. (A VID of zero (0) is permitted on the Ether-
net WAN port only.)
Admin Restricted – If you want to prevent administrative access to the Gateway from this VLAN, check
the checkbox.
802.1p Priority Bit: If you set this from the pull-down menu to a value greater than 0, all packets of this
VLAN with unmarked priority bits (pbits) will be re-marked to this priority.
Click the Submit button.
The VLAN Port Configuration screen appears.
Port interfaces available for this VLAN are listed in the left hand column.
Displayed port interfaces vary depending on the kinds of physical ports on your Gateway, for example,
Ethernet, USB, and/or wireless.
Also, if you have multiple wireless SSIDs defined, these may be displayed as well (See Enable Multiple
Wireless IDs on page 59)
For Motorola Netopia® VGx technology models, separate Ethernet switch ports are displayed and may
be configured.
To enable any of them on this VLAN, check the associated Enable checkbox(es).
Typically you will choose a physical port, such as an Ethernet port (example: eth0.1) or a wireless SSID
(example: ssid1).
When you enable an interface, the Tag, Priority, and Promote checkboxes and an 802.1p Priority Bit
pull-down menu appear for that interface.
Administrator’s Handbook
112
Tag – Packets transmitted from this port through this VLAN must be tagged with the VLAN VID. Packets
received through this port destined for this VLAN must be tagged with the VLAN VID by the source. The
Tag option is only available on Global type ports.
Priority – Use any 802.1p priority bits in the VLAN header to prioritize packets within the Gateway’s
internal queues, according to DiffServ priority mapping rules. See “Differentiated Services” on page 92
for more information.
Promote – Write any 802.1p priority bits into the IP-TOS header bit field for received IP packets on this
port destined for this VLAN. Write any IP-TOS priority bits into the 802.1p priority bit field for tagged IP
packets transmitted from this port for this VLAN.
All mappings between Ethernet 802.1p and IP-TOS are made according to a pre-defined QoS mapping
policy. The pre-defined mapping can now be set in the CLI. See Queue Configuration” on page 271. See
also “Differentiated Services” on page 92 for more information.
802.1p Priority Bit – If you set this field to a value greater than 0, all packets received on this port with
unmarked priority bits (pbits) will be re-marked to this priority. If the port 802.1p PBit is greater than 0,
the VLAN 802.1p PBit setting is ignored.
Select an IP Interface for this VLAN if it is to be routed; otherwise leave the default. These selections
will vary depending on your IP interfaces. For example, if you have set up multiple VCCs, these will
appear in the list as ip-vcc1, ip-vcc2, and so forth.
113
When you select an IP interface, the screen expands to allow you to configure Inter-Vlan-Groups.
Inter-VLAN groups allow VLANs in the group to route traffic to the others; ungrouped VLANs cannot route

Example
The following is a simple example of how you might configure some VLANs:
You want to configure a 3347NWG-VGx Gateway with two SSIDs (see Multiple SSIDs” on page 59 for more
information) for two VLANs, allowing both access to the Internet. One SSID will be in the same VLAN as the
four ports of the Ethernet Switch, so that those two networks can communicate. The second VLAN will be
for the other SSID. The second VLAN will also be denied access to the 3347NWG-VGx web interface and tel-
net interface. This setup might be useful if you have a doctor’s office or a coffee shop, and you want to
keep your customers separated from the rest of the network.
1. In the VLANs page, check the Enable checkbox, select VLAN #1 in the VLANs list, and
click the Edit button.
2. Check the Enable checkbox, and in the VLAN Name box, enter the name you would like.
For example, call it Network A.
Since this VLAN will be for SSID1 and the Ethernet ports, leave Admin Restricted unchecked. This will
give this VLAN access to the Gateway.
3. Click the Submit button.
4. In the Port Configuration for VLAN:1 page, you add the Port Interfaces you want associ-
ated with the VLAN.
117
In this case, select all the physical Ethernet ports: eth0.1 through eth0.4, and wireless ssid1. Select
ip-eth-a, the IP interface for the group. This will be Inter-Vlan-Group #1. Check the Group-1 checkbox.
These ports will be able to communicate with each other.
5. Click the Submit button.
6. In the VLAN page, select VLAN #2 in the VLANs list, and click the Edit button.
The VLAN Name must be given another unique name. For example, call it Network B.
Since this is for the second SSID that we don’t want to be given access to the Gateway, check the
Admin Restricted checkbox.
Administrator’s Handbook
118
7. Click the Submit button.
8. In the Port Configuration for VLAN: 2 page, you add the Port Interfaces you want asso-
ciated with the VLAN.
Select the ip-eth-a port interface and check the ssid2 port interface. Make this VLAN a member of
Inter-Vlan-Group Group-2.
9. Click the Submit button.
10. Next, create a VLAN to provide the Inter-Vlan-Groups access to the Internet (WAN).
For example, call it WAN VLAN.
119
Check the vcc1 checkbox, select the ip-vcc1 IP interface, and check the Inter-Vlan-Group Group-1 and
Group-2 checkboxes. Members of Groups 1 and 2 will now be able to communicate with the Internet
(WAN), but not with each other.
11. Once you have finished with the configuration of the VLANs, click the Alert icon in the
upper right hand corner.
This will validate that the settings are legal for your network.
12. Click the Save and Restart link.
This will restart the Motorola Netopia® Gateway and retain the VLAN configuration.

Link: VoIP
(supported models only)
Voice-over-IP (VoIP) refers to the ability to make voice telephone calls over the Internet. This differs from tra-
ditional phone calls that use the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). VoIP calls use an Internet pro-
tocol, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), to transmit sound over a network or the Internet in the form of data
packets. Certain Motorola Netopia® Gateway models have two separate voice ports for connecting tele-
phone handsets. These models support VoIP. If your Gateway is a VoIP model, you can configure the VoIP
features.
When you click the VoIP link, the SIP Line Entry page appears.
To enable a VoIP line, select one of the lines from the SIP Line Entry menu that corresponds to the port on
the Gateway to which your phone is connected.
Click the Edit button. In the resulting screen, check the Enable SIP checkbox.
The screen expands to display the features that you can enable for that line.

Link: Internal Servers
Your Gateway ships with an embedded Web server and support for a Telnet session, to allow ease of use
for configuration and maintenance. The default ports of 80 for HTTP and 23 for Telnet may be reassigned.
This is necessary if a pinhole is created to support applications using port 80 or 23. See “Pinholes” on
page 82. for more information on Pinhole configuration.
Web (HTTP) Server Port: To reassign the port number used to access the Motorola Netopia® embedded
Web server, change this value to a value greater than 1024. When you next access the embedded Motorola
Netopia® Web server, append the IP address with <port number>, (e.g. Point your browser to http://
210.219.41.20:8080).
Telnet Server Port: To reassign the port number used to access your Motorola Netopia® embedded Telnet
server, change this value to a value greater than 1024. When you next access the Motorola Netopia®
embedded Telnet server, append the IP address with <port number>, (e.g. telnet 210.219.41.20 2323).
You can also use the LAN-side address of the Gateway, 192.168.1.x:8100 to access the web server and
192.168.1.x:2323 to access the telnet server. The value of 0 for an internal server port will disable that
server. You can disable Telnet or Web, but not both. If you disabled both ports, you would not be able to
reconfigure the unit without pressing the reset button.

Link: Backup
The purpose of Backup is to provide a recovery mechanism in the event that the primary connection fails. A
failure can be either line loss, for example by central site switch failure or physical cable breakage, or loss
of end-to-end connectivity. Detection of one of these failures causes the Gateway to switch from using the
primary DSL WAN connection to an alternate gateway on the Ethernet LAN. In the event of a loss of primary
connectivity you have the option of switching back to the primary circuit automatically once it has recovered
its connection.
A typical application would be to have a LAN connection from your Gateway to another Gateway that has, for
example, another DSL modem or Gateway connection to the Internet, and designating the second gateway
as the backup gateway. Should the primary WAN connection fail, traffic would be automatically redirected
through your alternate gateway device to maintain Internet connectivity.
When you click the Backup link, the Backup Options page
appears.
Select either manual or automatic from the pull-down menu.
If you choose manual, you will have to switch manually to your
alternate gateway in the event of a connection failure.
For fail-over purposes, choose automatic.
Manual options
If you choose manual, you can also choose Auto Recovery. If you chose Auto Recovery, enter the number
of minutes that the system should wait before it assumes that a connection has been re-established. This
allows you to be sure that the primary WAN connection is well re-established before the Gateway switches
back to it from the backup mode. Minimum value is one minute.
Check the Enable Backup Gateway checkbox.
From the pull-down menu, select the Interface
Type to which you want to direct the backup con-
nection. If you have defined multiple VCCs, you
can choose a secondary one. Otherwise, to
backup to an IP device on the LAN, choose IP
Address.
The screen expands to allow you to enter an IP
address of your Backup Gateway.
Click the Submit button; click the Alert icon,
and in the resulting page, click the
Save and Restart link.

Once Backup is configured, a new field appears in the Home Page.
If your DSL WAN link fails, you can switch to your Backup Gateway by clicking the Force Backup button.
Automatic options
If you select automatic as your Backup option, the screen expands to allow you to enter additional informa-
tion.
Failure Timeout (minutes 1-10) – Enter the
number of minutes you want the system to wait
before the backup port becomes enabled in the
event of primary line failure. This allows you to be
sure the WAN connection is not merely briefly
interrupted before the gateway switches to
backup mode.
Ping Host 1 and Ping Host 2 – Select address
or name from the pull-down menu enter IP
address(es) or resolvable DNS name(s) that the
Gateway will ping.
The Gateway will ping both addresses simulta-
neously at five-second intervals, recording the
ping responses from each host. The Gateway will
proceed into backup mode only if neither of the
configured remote hosts responds.
Note:
For best results, enter an IP address and not a host name. If a host name is used it may not
be resolvable, and may keep the interface down.
While the Gateway is in backup mode, it will continue to ping both hosts via the primary interface. If
either host responds to a ping and the Auto Recovery checkbox is checked, the Gateway will revert to
the primary interface.
If you chose Auto Recovery, select Recovery Timeout (minutes1-10). Enter the number of minutes you
want the system to wait before attempting to switch back to the WAN connection. This allows you to be
sure that the WAN connection is well re-established before the gateway switches back to it from the
backup mode.
Check the Enable Backup Gateway checkbox

Link: Passwords
Access to your Gateway may be controlled through two optional user accounts, Admin and User. When you
first power up your Gateway, you create a password for the Admin account. The User account does not
exist by default. As the Admin, a password for the User account can be entered or existing passwords
changed.
Create and Change Passwords. You can establish different levels of access security to protect
your Motorola Netopia® Gateway settings from unauthorized display or modification.
Admin level privileges let you display and modify all settings in the Motorola Netopia® Gateway (Read/
Write mode). The Admin level password is created when you first access your Gateway.
User level privileges let you display (but not change) settings of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. (Read
Only mode)
To prevent anyone from observing the password you enter, characters in the old and new password fields
are not displayed as you type them.
To display the Passwords window, click the Security toolbar button on the Home page.
Use the following procedure to change existing passwords or add the User password for your Motorola
Netopia® Gateway:
1. Select the account type from the Username pull-down list.
Choose from Admin or User.
2. If you assigned a password to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway previously, enter your
current password in the Old Password field.
3. Enter your new password in the New Password field.

Use a Motorola Netopia® Firewall
BreakWater Basic Firewall. BreakWater delivers an easily selectable set of pre-configured firewall
protection levels. For simple implementation these settings (comprised of three levels) are readily available
through Motorola Netopia®’s embedded web server interface.
BreakWater Basic Firewall’s three settings are:
ClearSailing
ClearSailing, BreakWater's default setting, supports both inbound and outbound traffic. It is the only
basic firewall setting that fully interoperates with all other Motorola Netopia® software features.
SilentRunning
Using this level of firewall protection allows transmission of outbound traffic on pre-configured TCP/UDP
ports. It disables any attempt for inbound traffic to identify the Gateway. This is the Internet equivalent
of having an unlisted number.
LANdLocked
The third option available turns off all inbound and outbound traffic, isolating the LAN and disabling all
WAN traffic.
NOTE:
BreakWater Basic Firewall operates independent of the NAT functionality on the Gateway.
Configuring for a BreakWater Setting
Use these steps to establish a firewall setting:
1. Ensure that you have enabled the BreakWater basic firewall with the appropriate fea-
ture key.
See See “Use Motorola Netopia® Software Feature Keys” on page 187. for reference.
NOTE: The firewall is now keyed on by default on the 2200-Series Gateways.
2. Click the Security toolbar button.
3. Click Firewall.
143
4. Click on the radio button to select the protection level you want. Click Submit.
Changing the BreakWater setting does not require a restart to take effect. This makes it easy to change
the setting “on the fly,” as your needs change.
TIPS for making your BreakWater Basic Firewall Selection
Basic Firewall Background
As a device on the Internet, a Motorola Netopia® Gateway requires an IP address in order to send or
receive traffic.
The IP traffic sent or received have an associated application port which is dependent on the nature of the
connection request. In the IP protocol standard the following session types are common applications:
By receiving a response to a scan from a port or series of ports (which is the expected behavior according
to the IP standard), hackers can identify an existing device and gain a potential opening for access to an
internet-connected device.

To protect LAN users and their network from these types of attacks, BreakWater offers three levels of
increasing protection.
The following tables indicate the state of ports associated with session types, both on the WAN side
and the LAN side of the Gateway.
This table shows how inbound traffic is treated. Inbound means the traffic is coming from the WAN into the
WAN side of the Gateway.
This table shows how outbound traffic is treated. Outbound means the traffic is coming from the LAN-side
computers into the LAN side of the Gateway.

Link: IPSec
When you click on the IPSec link, the IPSec configuration screen appears.
Your Gateway can support two mechanisms for IPSec tunnels:
IPSec PassThrough supports Virtual Private Network (VPN) clients running on LAN-connected comput-
ers. Normally, this feature is enabled.
You can disable it if your LAN-side VPN client includes its own NAT interoperability option.
Uncheck the Enable IPSec Passthrough checkbox.
SafeHarbour VPN IPSec is a keyed feature that you must purchase. (See “Install Key” on page 187.) It
enables Gateway-terminated VPN support.
147
SafeHarbour IPSec VPN
SafeHarbour VPN IPSec Tunnel provides a single, encrypted tunnel to be terminated on the Gateway, mak-
ing a secure tunnel available for all LAN- connected users. This implementation offers the following:
Eliminates the need for VPN client software on individual PCs.
Reduces the complexity of tunnel configuration.
Simplifies the ongoing maintenance for secure remote access.
If you have purchased the SafeHarbour IPSec feature key, the IPSec configuration screen offers additional
options.
A typical SafeHarbour configuration is shown below:
Administrator’s Handbook
148
Configuring a SafeHarbour VPN
Use the following procedure to configure your SafeHarbour tunnel.
1. Obtain your configuration information from your network administrator.
The tables “Parameter Descriptions” on page 151 describe the various parameters that may be required
for your tunnel. Not all of them need to be changed from the defaults for every VPN tunnel. Consult with
your network administrator.
2. Complete the Parameter Setup worksheet “IPSec Tunnel Details Parameter Setup Work-
sheet” on page 149.
The worksheet provides spaces for you to enter your own specific values. You can print the page for easy
reference. IPSec tunnel configuration requires precise parameter setup between VPN devices. The Setup
Worksheet (page 149) facilitates setup and assures that the associated variables are identical.

mainly used as an identifier for the administrator. The Name parameter is
an ASCII value and is limited to 31 characters. The tunnel name does not
need to match the peer gateway.
Peer External IP
Address
The Peer External IP Address is the public, or routable IP address of the
remote gateway or VPN server you are establishing the tunnel with.
Encryption
Protocol
Encryption protocol for the tunnel session.
Parameter values supported include NONE or ESP.
Authentication
Protocol
Authentication Protocol for IP packet header. The three parameter values
are None, Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header
(AH)
Key Management The Key Management algorithm manages the exchange of security keys in
the IPSec protocol architecture. SafeHarbour supports the standard Inter-
net Key Exchange (IKE)
Table 3: IPSec Tunnel Details page parameters
Field Description
Name The Name parameter refers to the name of the configured tunnel. This is
mainly used as an identifier for the administrator. The Name parameter is
an ASCII value and is limited to 31 characters. The tunnel name does not
need to match the peer gateway.
Peer Internal
Network
The Peer Internal IP Network is the private, or Local Area Network (LAN)
address of the remote gateway or VPN Server you are communicating with.
Peer Internal
Netmask
The Peer Internal IP Netmask is the subnet mask of the Peer Internal IP
Network.
NAT enable Turns NAT on or off for this tunnel.
PAT Address If NAT is enabled, this field appears. You can specify a Port Address Trans-
lation (PAT) address or leave the default all-zeroes (if Xauth is enabled). If
you leave the default. the address will be requested from the remote router
and dynamically applied to the Gateway.
Negotiation
Method
This parameter refers to the method used during the Phase I key
exchange, or IKE process. SafeHarbour supports Main or Aggressive
Mode. Main mode requires 3 two-way message exchanges while Aggres-
sive mode only requires 3 total message exchanges.
Local ID type If Aggressive mode is selected as the Negotiation Method, this option
appears. Selection options are: IP Address, Subnet, Hostname, ASCII
Local ID Address/
Value
If Aggressive mode is selected as the Negotiation Method, this field
appears. This is the local (Gateway-side) IP address (or Name Value, if Sub-
net or Hostname are selected as the Local ID Type).
Administrator’s Handbook
152
Local ID Mask If Aggressive mode is selected as the Negotiation Method, and Subnet as
the Local ID Type, this field appears. This is the local (Gateway-side) sub-
net mask.
Remote ID Type If Aggressive mode is selected as the Negotiation Method, this option
appears. Selection options are: IP Address, Subnet, Hostname, ASCII.
Remote ID
Address/Value
If Aggressive mode is selected as the Negotiation Method, this field
appears. This is the remote (central-office-side) IP address (or Name Value,
if Subnet or Hostname are selected as the Local ID Type).
Remote ID Mask If Aggressive mode is selected as the Negotiation Method, and Subnet as
the Remote ID Type, this field appears. This is the remote (central-office-
side) subnet mask.
Pre-Shared Key
Type
The Pre-Shared Key Type classifies the Pre-Shared Key. SafeHarbour sup-
ports ASCII or HEX types
Pre-Shared Key The Pre-Shared Key is a parameter used for authenticating each side. The
value can be ASCII or Hex and a maximum of 64 characters. ASCII is case-
sensitive.
DH Group Diffie-Hellman is a public key algorithm used between two systems to
determine and deliver secret keys used for encryption. Groups 1, 2 and 5
are supported.
PFS Enable Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) is used during SA renegotiation. When PFS
is selected, a Diffie-Hellman key exchange is required. If enabled, the PFS
DH group follows the IKE phase 1 DH group.
SA Encrypt Type SA Encr yption Type refers to the symmetric encryption type. This encryp-
tion algorithm will be used to encrypt each data packet. SA Encryption
Type values supported include DES and 3DES.
SA Hash Type SA Hash Type refers to the Authentication Hash algorithm used during SA
negotiation. Values supported include MD5 and SHA1. N/A will display if
NONE is chosen for Auth Protocol.
Invalid SPI
Recovery
Enabling this allows the Gateway to re-establish the tunnel if either the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway or the peer gateway is rebooted.
Soft MBytes Setting the Soft MBytes parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec
Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Soft MByte value. The value
can be configured between 1 and 1,000,000 MB and refers to data traffic
passed. If this value is not achieved, the Hard MBytes parameter is
enforced. This parameter does not need to match the peer gateway.
Soft Seconds Setting the Soft Seconds parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec
Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Soft Seconds value. The
value can be configured between 60 and 1,000,000 seconds. This param-
eter does not need to match the peer gateway.
Hard MBytes Setting the Hard MBytes parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec
Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Hard MByte value.
The value can be configured between 1 and 1,000,000 MB and refers to
data traffic passed. This parameter does not need to match the peer gate-
way.
Hard Seconds Setting the Hard Seconds parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec
Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Hard Seconds value. The
value can be configured between 60 and 1,000,000 seconds This parame-
ter does not need to match the peer gateway.
Table 3: IPSec Tunnel Details page parameters
153
IPSec MTU Some ISPs require a setting of e.g. 1492 (or other value). The default
1500 is the most common and you usually don’t need to change this
unless otherwise instructed. Accepted values are from 100 – 1500.
This is the starting value that is used for the MTU when the IPSec tunnel is
installed. It specifies the maximum IP packet length for the encapsulated
AH or ESP packets sent by the router. The MTU used on the IPSec connec-
tion will be automatically adjusted based on the MTU value in any received
ICMP can't fragment error messages that correspond to IPSec traffic initi-
ated from the router. Normally the MTU only requires manual configuration
if the ICMP error messages are blocked or otherwise not received by the
router.
Xauth Enable Extended Authentication (XAuth), an extension to the Internet Key
Exchange (IKE) protocol. The Xauth extension provides dual authentication
for a remote user’s Motorola Netopia® Gateway to establish a VPN, autho-
rizing network access to the user’s central office. IKE establishes the tun-
nel, and Xauth authenticates the specific remote user's Gateway. Since
NAT is supported over the tunnel, the remote user network can have multi-
ple PCs behind the client Gateway accessing the VPN. By using XAuth, net-
work VPN managers can centrally control remote user authentication.

Link: Stateful Inspection
All computer operating systems are vulnerable to attack from outside sources, typically at the operating
system or Internet Protocol (IP) layers. Stateful Inspection firewalls intercept and analyze incoming data
packets to determine whether they should be admitted to your private LAN, based on multiple criteria, or
blocked. Stateful inspection improves security by tracking data packets over a period of time, examining
incoming and outgoing packets. Outgoing packets that request specific types of incoming packets are
tracked; only those incoming packets constituting a proper response are allowed through the firewall.
Stateful inspection is a security feature that prevents unsolicited inbound access when NAT is disabled. You
can configure UDP and TCP “no-activity” periods that will also apply to NAT time-outs if stateful inspection is
enabled on the interface. Stateful Inspection parameters are active on a WAN interface only if enabled on
your Gateway. Stateful inspection can be enabled on a WAN interface whether NAT is enabled or not.
Stateful Inspection Firewall installation procedure
NOTE:
Installing Stateful Inspection Firewall is mandatory to comply with Required Services Security
Policy - Residential Category module - Version 4.1 (specified by ICSA Labs)
For more information please go to the following URL:
http://www.icsalabs.com/icsa/docs/html/communities/firewalls/pdf/4.1/baseline.pdf
1. Access the router through the web interface from the private LAN.
DHCP server is enabled on the LAN by default.
2. The Gateway’s Stateful Inspection feature must be enabled in order to prevent TCP,
UDP and ICMP packets destined for the router or the private hosts.
This can be done by navigating to Expert Mode -> Security -> Stateful Inspection.
UDP no-activity time-out: The time in seconds after which a UDP session will be terminated, if there is
no traffic on the session.
TCP no-activity time-out: The time in seconds after which an TCP session will be terminated, if there
is no traffic on the session.
155
DoS Detect: If you check this checkbox, the Gateway will monitor packets for Denial of Service attacks.
Exposed Addresses: The hosts specified in Exposed Addresses will be allowed to receive inbound traf-
fic even if there is no corresponding outbound traffic. This is active only if NAT is disabled on a WAN
interface.
Stateful Inspection Options: Enable and configure stateful inspection on a WAN interface.
Exposed Addresses
You can specify the IP addresses you want to expose by clicking the Exposed addresses link.
Add, Edit, or delete exposed addresses options are active only if NAT is disabled on a WAN interface. The
hosts specified in exposed addresses will be allowed to receive inbound traffic even if there is no corre-
sponding outbound traffic.
Start Address: Start IP Address of the exposed host range.
End Address: End IP Address of the exposed host range
Protocol: Select the Protocol of the traffic to be allowed to the host range from the pull-down menu.
Options are Any, TCP, UDP, or TCP/UDP.
Start Port: Start port of the range to be allowed to the host range. The acceptable range is from 1 -
65535
End Port: Protocol of the traffic to be allowed to the host range. The acceptable range is from 1 - 65535
Administrator’s Handbook
156
You can add more exposed addresses by clicking the Add more Exposed Addresses link. A list of pre-
viously configured exposed addresses appears.
Click the Add button to add a new range of exposed addresses.
You can edit a previously configured range by clicking the Edit button, or delete the entry entirely by clicking
the Delete button.
All configuration changes will trigger the Alert Icon. Click on the Alert icon.
This allows you to validate the configuration and reboot the Gateway.
Click the Save and Restart link. You will be asked to confirm your choice, and the Gateway will reboot
with the new configuration.

Stateful Inspection Options
Stateful Inspection Parameters are active on a WAN interface only if you enable them on your Gateway.
Stateful Inspection: To enable stateful inspection on this WAN interface, check the checkbox.
Default Mapping to Router: This is disabled by default. This option will allow the router to respond to
traffic received on this interface, for example, ICMP Echo requests.
NOTE:
If Stateful Inspection is enabled on a WAN interface Default Mapping to Router must be
enabled to allow inbound VPN terminations to the router.
TCP Sequence Number Difference: Enter a value in this field. This value represents the maximum
sequence number difference allowed between subsequent TCP packets. If this number is exceeded, the
packet is dropped. The acceptable range is 0 – 65535. A value of 0 (zero) disables this check.
Deny Fragments: To enable this option, which causes the router to discard fragmented packets on this
interface, check the checkbox.

Firewall Tutorial
General firewall terms
Note:
Breakwater Basic Firewall (see “BreakWater Basic Firewall” on page 142) does not make
use of the packet filter support and can be used in addition to filtersets
Filter rule: A filter set is comprised of individual filter rules.
Filter set: A grouping of individual filter rules.
Firewall: A component or set of components that restrict access between a protected network and the
Internet, or between two networks.
Host: A workstation on the network.
Packet: Unit of communication on the Internet.
Packet filter: Packet filters allow or deny packets based on source or destination IP addresses, TCP or UDP
ports.
Port: A number that defines a particular type of service.
Basic IP packet components
All IP packets contain the same basic header information, as follows:
This header information is what the packet filter uses to make filtering decisions. It is important to note
that a packet filter does not look into the IP data stream (the User Data from above) to make filtering deci-
sions.
Basic protocol types
TCP: Transmission Control Protocol. TCP provides reliable packet delivery and has a retransmission mech-
anism (so packets are not lost). RFC 793 is the specification for TCP.
Source IP Address 163.176.132.18
Destination IP Address 163.176.4.27
Source Port 2541
Destination Port 80
Protocol TCP
DATA User Data
159
UDP: User Datagram Protocol. Unlike TCP, UDP does not guarantee reliable, sequenced packet delivery. If
data does not reach its destination, UDP does not retransmit the data. RFC 768 is the specification for
UDP.
There are many more ports defined in the Assigned Addresses RFC. The table that follows shows some of
these port assignments.
Example TCP/UDP Ports
Firewall design rules
There are two basic rules to firewall design:
“What is not explicitly allowed is denied.”
and
“What is not explicitly denied is allowed.”
The first rule is far more secure, and is the best approach to firewall design. It is far easier (and more
secure) to allow in or out only certain services and deny anything else. If the other rule is used, you would
have to figure out everything that you want to disallow, now and in the future.
Firewall Logic
Firewall design is a test of logic, and filter rule ordering is critical. If a packet is forwarded through a series
of filter rules and then the packet matches a rule, the appropriate action is taken. The packet will not for-
ward through the remainder of the filter rules.
For example, if you had the following filter set...
Allow WWW access;
Allow FTP access;
Allow SMTP access;
Deny all other packets.
and a packet goes through these rules destined for FTP, the packet would forward through the first rule
(WWW), go through the second rule (FTP), and match this rule; the packet is allowed through.
If you had this filter set for example....
Allow WWW access;
TCP Port Service UDP Port Service
20/21 FTP 161 SNMP
23 Telnet 69 TFTP
25 SMTP
80 WWW
144 News
Administrator’s Handbook
160
Allow FTP access;
Deny FTP access;
Deny all other packets.
and a packet goes through these rules destined for FTP, the packet would forward through the first filter
rule (WWW), match the second rule (FTP), and the packet is allowed through. Even though the next rule is to
deny all FTP traffic, the FTP packet will never make it to this rule.
Implied rules
With a given set of filter rules, there is an Implied rule that may or may not be shown to the user. The
implied rule tells the filter set what to do with a packet that does not match any of the filter rules. An exam-
ple of implied rules is as follows:
Example filter set page
This is an example of the Motorola Netopia® filter set page:
Implied Meaning
Y+Y+Y=N If all filter rules are YES, the implied rule is NO.
N+N+N=Y If all filter rules are NO, the implied rule is YES.
Y+N+Y=N If a mix of YES and NO filters, the implied rule is NO.
161
Filter basics
In the source or destination IP address fields, the IP address that is entered must be the network address
of the subnet. A host address can be entered, but the applied subnet mask must be 32 bits
(255.255.255.255).
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 has the ability to compare source and destination TCP or UDP
ports. These options are as follows:
Example network
Example filters
Example 1

Link: Packet Filter
When you click the
Packet Filter
link the
Filter Sets
screen appears.
Security should be a high priority for anyone administering a network connected to the Internet. Using
packet filters to control network communications can greatly improve your network’s security. The Packet
Filter engine allows creation of a maximum of eight Filter Sets. Each Filter Set can consist of many rules.
There can be a maximum of 32 filter rules in the system.
WARNING:
Before attempting to configure filters and filter sets, please read and understand this entire
section thoroughly. Motorola Netopia® Gateways incorporating NAT have advanced security
features built in. Improperly adding filters and filter sets increases the possibility of loss of
communication with the Gateway and the Internet. Never attempt to configure filters unless you
are local to the Gateway.
Although using filter sets can enhance network security, there are disadvantages:
• Filters are complex. Combining them in filter sets introduces subtle interactions, increasing
the likelihood of implementation errors.
• Enabling a large number of filters can have a negative impact on performance. Processing of
packets will take longer if they have to go through many checkpoints in addition to NAT.
• Too much reliance on packet filters can cause too little reliance on other security methods.
Filter sets are
not
a substitute for password protection, effective safeguarding of passwords,
and general awareness of how your network may be vulnerable.
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4’s packet filters are designed to provide security for the Internet
connections made to and from your network. You can customize the Gateway’s filter sets for a variety of
packet filtering applications. Typically, you use filters to selectively admit or refuse TCP/IP connections from
certain remote networks and specific hosts. You will also use filters to screen particular types of connec-
tions. This is commonly called
firewalling
your network.
Before creating filter sets, you should read the next few sections to learn more about how these powerful
security tools work.
What’s a filter and what’s a filter set?
A filter is a rule that lets you specify what sort of data can flow in and out of your network. A particular filter
can be either an input filter—one that is used on data (packets) coming in to your network from the Inter-
net—or an output filter—one that is used on data (packets) going out from your network to the Internet.
A filter set is a group of filters that work together to check incoming or outgoing data. A filter set can consist
of a combination of input and output filters.
Administrator’s Handbook
164
How filter sets work
A filter set acts like a team of customs inspectors. Each filter is an inspector through which incoming and
outgoing packages must pass. The inspectors work as a team, but each inspects every package individu-
ally.
Each inspector has a specific task. One inspector’s task may be to examine the destination address of all
outgoing packages. That inspector looks for a certain destination—which could be as specific as a street
address or as broad as an entire country—and checks each package’s destination address to see if it
matches that destination.
A filter inspects data packets like a customs inspector scrutinizing packages.
Filter priority
Continuing the customs inspectors analogy, imagine the inspectors lined up
to examine a package. If the package matches the first inspector’s criteria,
the package is either rejected or passed on to its destination, depending on
the first inspector’s particular orders. In this case, the package is never
seen by the remaining inspectors.
If the package does not match the first inspector’s criteria, it goes to the
second inspector, and so on. You can see that the order of the inspectors in
the line is very important.
For example, let’s say the first inspector’s orders are to send along all pack-
ages that come from Rome, and the second inspector’s orders are to reject
all packages that come from France. If a package arrives from Rome, the
first inspector sends it along without allowing the second inspector to see it.
A package from Paris is ignored by the first inspector, rejected by the second
inspector, and never seen by the others. A package from London is ignored
by the first two inspectors, so it’s seen by the third inspector.
In the same way, filter sets apply their filters in a particular order. The first fil-
ter applied can forward or discard a packet before that packet ever reaches
any of the other filters. If the first filter can neither forward nor discard the
packet (because it cannot match any criteria), the second filter has a chance
to forward or reject it, and so on. Because of this hierarchical structure,
each filter is said to have a priority. The first filter has the highest priority, and the last filter has the lowest
priority.

How individual filters work
As described above, a filter applies criteria to an IP packet and then takes one of three actions:
Forwards the packet to the local or remote network
Blocks (discards) the packet
Ignores the packet
A filter forwards or blocks a packet only if it finds a match after applying its criteria. When no match occurs,
the filter ignores the packet.
A filtering rule
The criteria are based on information contained in the packets. A filter is simply a rule that prescribes cer-
tain actions based on certain conditions. For example, the following rule qualifies as a filter:
“Block all Telnet attempts that originate from the remote host 199.211.211.17.”
This rule applies to Telnet packets that come from a host with the IP address 199.211.211.17. If a match
occurs, the packet is blocked.
Here is what this rule looks like when imple-
mented as a filter in Netopia Embedded Software
Version 7.7.4:
To understand this particular filter, look at the
parts of a filter.
Parts of a filter
A filter consists of criteria based on packet
attributes. A typical filter can match a packet on
any one of the following attributes:
The source IP address and subnet mask
(where the packet was sent from)
The destination IP address and subnet mask
(where the packet is going)
The TOS bit setting of the packet. Certain
types of IP packets, such as voice or multime-
dia packets, are sensitive to delays introduced
by the network. A delay-sensitive packet is
identified by a special low-latency setting called
the TOS bit. It is important for such packets to
be received rapidly or the quality of service
degrades.
The type of higher-layer Internet protocol the packet is carrying, such as TCP or UDP
Port numbers
A filter can also match a packet’s port number attributes, but only if the filter’s protocol type is set to TCP
or UDP, since only those protocols use port numbers. The filter can be configured to match the following:
The source port number (the port on the sending host that originated the packet)
The destination port number (the port on the receiving host that the packet is destined for)
Administrator’s Handbook
166
By matching on a port number, a filter can be applied to selected TCP or UDP services, such as Telnet, FTP,
and World Wide Web. The following tables show a few common services and their associated port numbers:
Port number comparisons
A filter can also use a comparison option to evaluate a packet’s source or destination port number. The
comparison options are:
No Compare:
No comparison of the port number specified in the filter with the packet’s port number.
Not Equal To:
For the filter to match, the packet’s port number cannot equal the port number specified
in the filter.
Less Than:
For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be less than the port number speci-
fied in the filter.
Less Than or Equal:
For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be less than or equal to the
port number specified in the filter.
Equal:
For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must equal the port number specified in the fil-
ter.
Greater Than:
For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be greater than the port number
specified in the filter.
Greater Than or Equal:
For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be greater than or equal
to the port number specified in the filter.
Other filter attributes
There are three other attributes to each filter:
The filter’s order (i.e., priority) in the filter set
Whether the filter is currently active
Whether the filter is set to forward packets or to block (discard) packets

Putting the parts together
When you display a filter set, its filters are displayed as rows in a table:
The table’s columns correspond to each filter’s attributes:
#: The filter’s priority in the set. Filter number 1, with the highest priority, is first in the table.
Fwd: Shows whether the filter forwards (Yes) a packet or discards (No) it when there’s a match.
Src-IP: The packet source IP address to match.
Src-Mask: The packet source subnet mask to match.
Dst-IP: The packet destination IP address to match.
Dst-Mask: The packet destination IP address to match.
Protocol: The protocol to match. This can be entered as a number (see the table below) or as TCP or
UDP if those protocols are used.
Src Port: The source port to match. This is the port on the sending host that originated the packet.
Dst Port: The destination port to match. This is the port on the receiving host for which the packet is
intended.
NC: Indicates No Compare, where specified.
Filtering example #1
Returning to our filtering rule example from above (see page 165), look at how a rule is translated into a fil-
ter. Start with the rule, then fill in the filter’s attributes:
The rule you want to implement as a filter is:
“Block all Telnet attempts that originate from the remote host 199.211.211.17.”
Protocol Number to use Full name
N/A 0 Ignores protocol type
ICMP 1 Internet Control Message Protocol
TCP 6 Transmission Control Protocol
UDP 17 User Datagram Protocol
Administrator’s Handbook
168
The host 199.211.211.17 is the source of the Telnet packets you want to block, while the destination
address is any IP address. How these IP addresses are masked determines what the final match will be,
although the mask is not displayed in the table that displays the filter sets (you set it when you create
the filter). In fact, since the mask for the destination IP address is 0.0.0.0, the address for Destination
IP address could have been anything. The mask for Source IP address must be 255.255.255.255 since
an exact match is desired.
Source IP Address = 199.211.211.17
Source IP address mask = 255.255.255.255
Destination IP Address = 0.0.0.0
Destination IP address mask = 0.0.0.0
Using the tables on page 166, find the destination port and protocol numbers (the local Telnet port):
Protocol = TCP (or 6)
Destination Port = 23
The filter should be enabled and instructed to block the Telnet packets containing the source address
shown in step 2:
Forward = unchecked
This four-step process is how we produced the following filter from the original rule:
169
Filtering example #2
Suppose a filter is configured to block all incoming IP packets with the source IP address of 200.233.14.0,
regardless of the type of connection or its destination. The filter would look like this:
This filter blocks any packets coming from a remote network with the IP network address 200.233.14.0.
The 0 at the end of the address signifies any host on the class C IP network 200.233.14.0. If, for example,
the filter is applied to a packet with the source IP address 200.233.14.5, it will block it.
In this case, the mask, must be set to 255.255.255.0. This way, all packets with a source address of
200.233.14.x will be matched correctly, no matter what the final address byte is.
Note:
The protocol attribute for this filter is Any by default. This tells the filter to ignore the IP protocol
or type of IP packet.
Design guidelines
Careful thought must go into designing a new filter set. You should consider the following guidelines:
Be sure the filter set’s overall purpose is clear from the beginning. A vague purpose can lead to a faulty
set, and that can actually make your network less secure.
Be sure each individual filter’s purpose is clear.
Determine how filter priority will affect the set’s actions. Test the set (on paper) by determining how the
filters would respond to a number of different hypothetical packets.
Consider the combined effect of the filters. If every filter in a set fails to match on a particular packet,
the packet is:
Forwarded if all the filters are configured to discard (not forward)
Discarded if all the filters are configured to forward
Discarded if the set contains a combination of forward and discard filters
Administrator’s Handbook
170
An approach to using filters
The ultimate goal of network security is to prevent unauthorized access to the network without compromis-
ing authorized access. Using filter sets is part of reaching that goal.
Each filter set you design will be based on one of the following approaches:
That which is not expressly prohibited is permitted.
That which is not expressly permitted is prohibited.
It is strongly recommended that you take the latter, and safer, approach to all of your filter set designs.
171
Working with IP Filters and Filter Sets
To work with filters and filter sets, begin by accessing the filter set pages.
NOTE:
Make sure you understand how filters work before attempting to use them. Read the section
“Packet Filter” on page 163.
The procedure for creating and maintaining filter sets is as follows:
1. Add a new filter set.
See Adding a filter set, below.
2. Create the filters for the new filter set.
See “Adding filters to a filter set” on page 172.
3. Associate the filter set with either the LAN or WAN interface.
See “Associating a Filter Set with an Interface” on page 176.
The sections below explain how to execute these steps.
Adding a filter set
You can create up to eight different custom filter sets. Each filter set can contain up to 16 output filters and
up to 16 input filters. There can be a maximum of 32 filter rules in the system.
To add a new filter set, click the Add button in the Filter Sets page. The Add Filter Set page appears.
Enter new name for the filter set, for example Filter Set 1.
To save the filter set, click the Submit button. The saved filter set is empty (contains no filters), but you
can return to it later to add filters (see “Adding filters to a filter set”).
NOTE:
As you begin to build a filter set, and as you add filters, after your first entry, the Alert icon
Administrator’s Handbook
172
will appear in the upper right corner of the web page. It will remain until all of your
changes are entered and validated. You need not immediately restart the Gateway until your fil-
ter set is complete. See “Associating a Filter Set with an Interface” on page 176.
Adding filters to a filter set
There are two kinds of filters you can add to a filter set: input and output. Input filters check packets
received from the Internet, destined for your network. Output filters check packets transmitted from your
network to the Internet.
Packets in Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 pass through an input filter if they originate from the WAN and
through an output filter if they’re being sent out to the WAN.
The process for adding input and output filters is exactly the same. The main difference between the two
involves their reference to source and destination. From the perspective of an input filter, your local network
is the destination of the packets it checks, and the remote network is their source. From the perspective of
an output filter, your local network is the source of the packets, and the remote network is their destination.
To add a filter, select the Filter Set Name to which you will add a filter, and click the Edit button.
Type of filter Source means Destination means

The Filter Set page appears.
Note:
There are two Add buttons in this page, one for input filters and one for output filters. In this
section, you’ll learn how to add an input filter to a filter set. Adding an output filter works
exactly the same way, providing you keep the different source and destination perspectives in
mind.
Administrator’s Handbook
174
1. To add a filter, click the Add button under Input Rules.
The Input Rule Entry page appears.
2. If you want the filter to forward packets that match its criteria to the destination IP
address, check the
Forward
checkbox.
If Forward is unchecked, packets matching the filter’s criteria will be discarded.
3. Enter the
Source IP
address this filter will match on.
You can enter a subnet or a host address.
4. Enter the
Source Mask
for the source IP address.
This allows you to further modify the way the filter will match on the source address. Enter 0.0.0.0 to
force the filter to match on all source IP addresses, or enter 255.255.255.255 to match the source IP
address exclusively.
5. Enter the
Destination IP
Address this filter will match on.
You can enter a subnet or a host address.
6. Enter the
Destination Mask
for the destination IP address.
This allows you to further modify the way the filter will match on the destination address. Enter 0.0.0.0
to force the filter to match on all destination IP addresses.
7. If desired, you can enter a TOS and TOS Mask value.
See “Policy-based Routing using Filtersets” on page 177 for more information.
8. Select
Protocol
from the pull-down menu: ICMP, TCP, UDP, Any, or the number of
another IP transport protocol (see the table on page 167).
If Protocol Type is set to TCP or UDP, the settings for port comparison will appear. These settings only
take effect if the Protocol Type is TCP or UDP.
9. From the
Source Port Compare
pull-down menu, choose a comparison method for the
filter to use on a packet’s source port number.
Then select
Source Port
and enter the actual source port number to match on (see the table on
page 166).
10. From the Destination Port Compare pull-down menu, choose a comparison method for
the filter to use on a packet’s destination port number.
Then select
Destination Port
and enter the actual destination port number to match on (see the table
on page 166).
175
11. When you are finished configuring the filter, click the Submit button to save the filter in
the filter set.
Viewing filters
To display the table of input or output filters, select the Filter Set Name in the Filter Set page and click the
Add or Edit button.
The table of filters in the filtersets appears.
Modifying filters
To modify a filter, select a filter from the table and click the Edit button. The Rule Entry page appears. The
parameters in this page are set in the same way as the ones in the original Rule Entry page (see “Adding fil-
ters to a filter set” on page 172).
Deleting filters
To delete a filter, select a filter from the table and click the Delete button.
Moving filters
To reorganize the filters in a filter set, select a filter from the table and click the Move Up or Move Down
button to place the filter in the desired priority position.
Deleting a filter set
If you delete a filter set, all of the filters it contains are deleted as well. To reuse any of these filters in
another set, before deleting the current filter set you’ll have to note their configuration and then recreate
them.
To delete a filter set, select the filter set from the Filter Sets list and click the Delete button.
Administrator’s Handbook
176
Associating a Filter Set with an Interface
Once you have created a filter set, you must associate it with an interface in order for it to be effective.
Depending on its application, you can associate it with either the WAN (usually the Internet) interface or the
LAN.
To associate an filter set with the LAN, return to the Filter Sets page.
Click the Ethernet 100BT link.
The Ethernet 100BT page appears.
From the pull-down menu, select the filter set to associate with this
interface.
Click the Submit button. The Alert icon will appear in the upper right
corner of the page.
Click the Alert icon to go to the validation page, where you can save your configuration.
You can repeat this process for both the WAN and LAN interfaces, to associate your filter sets.
When you return to the Filter Sets page, it will display
your interface associations.
177
Policy-based Routing using Filtersets
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 offers the ability to route IP packets using criteria other than the
destination IP address. This is called policy-based routing.
You specify the routing criteria and routing information by using IP filtersets to determine the forwarding
action of a particular filter.
You specify a gateway IP address, and each packet matching the filter is routed according to that gateway
address, rather than by means of the global routing table.
In addition, the classifier list in a filter includes the TOS field. This allows you to filter on TOS field settings
in the IP packet, if you want.
To use the policy-based routing feature, you create a filter that
forwards the traffic.
Check the Forward checkbox. This will display the Force Rout-
ing options.
Check the Force Route checkbox.
Enter the Gateway IP address in standard dotted-quad nota-
tion to which the traffic should be forwarded.
You can enter Source and Destination IP Address(es) and
Mask(s), Protocol Type, and Source and Destination Port
ID(s) for the filter, if desired.
TOS field matching
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 includes two
parameters for an IP filter: TOS and TOS Mask. Both fields
accept values in the range 0 – 255.
Certain types of IP packets, such as voice or multimedia
packets, are sensitive to latency introduced by the network. A
delay-sensitive packet is one that has the low-latency bit set in
the TOS field of the IP header. This means that if such packets
are not received rapidly, the quality of service degrades. If you
expect to route significant amounts of such traffic you can
configure your router to route this type of traffic to a gateway
other than your normal gateway using this feature.
The TOS field matching check is consistent with source and destination address matching.
If you check the Idle Reset checkbox, a match on this rule will keep the WAN connection alive by resetting
the idle-timeout status.
The Idle Reset setting is used to determine if a packet which matches the filter will cause an “instant-on”
link to connect, if it is down; or reset its idle timer, if it is already up. For example, if you wanted ping traffic
not to keep the link up, you would create a filter which forwards a ping, but with the Idle Reset checkbox
unchecked.
Administrator’s Handbook
178
Example: You want packets with the TOS low latency bit to go
through VC 2 (via gateway 127.0.0.3 – the Motorola Netopia®
Gateway will use 127.0.0.x, where x is the WAN port + 1) instead
of your normal gateway.
You would set up the filter as shown here.
NOTE:
Default Forwarding Filter
If you create one or more filters that have a matching action of forward, then action on a
packet matching none of the filters is to block any traffic.
Therefore, if the behavior you want is to force the routing of a certain type of packet and pass
all others through the normal routing mechanism, you must configure one filter to match the
first type of packet and apply Force Routing. A subsequent filter is required to match and for-
ward all other packets.
Management IP traffic
If the Force Routing filter is applied to source IP addresses, it may inadvertently block commu-
nication with the router itself. You can avoid this by preceding the Force Routing filter with a fil-
ter that matches the destination IP address of the Gateway itself.

Timestamp Background
During bootup, to provide better log information and to support improved troubleshooting, a Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway acquires the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Universal Coordinated
Time (UTC) reference signal, and then adjusts it for your local time zone.
Once per hour, the Gateway attempts to re-acquire the NIST reference, for re-synchronization or initial acqui-
sition of the UTC information. Once acquired, all subsequent log entries display this date and time informa-
tion. UTC provides the equivalent of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) information.
If the WAN connection is not enabled (or NTP has been disabled), the internal clocking function of the Gate-
way provides log timestamps based on “uptime” of the unit.
The security log is empty.

Link: Install Certificate
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for transmitting private information over the Internet. SSL uses
two keys to encrypt data: a public key known to everyone and a private or secret key known only to the
recipient of the message.
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 uses SSL certificates for TR-069 support.
SSL certificates are issued by trusted Certification Authorities (CAs). The CA digitally signs each certificate.
Each client contains a list of trusted CAs. When an SSL handshake between a server and your Gateway
occurs, the client verifies that the server certificate was issued by a trusted CA. If the CA is not trusted, a
warning will appear. Certificates installed in your Gateway and servers to which it connects verify to each
other that communications between them are encrypted and private.
Certificates are purchased from an issuing Certificate Authority, usually by your corporate IT department or
other service provider, and provided to users for secure communications.
You must obtain a certificate file before you can install it.
1. To install an SSL certificate, click the Install Certificate link.

Factory Reset Switch
(not supported on some models; 3342/3342N/3352/3352N models do not have a reset switch)
Lose your password? This section shows how to reset the Motorola Netopia® Gateway so that you can
access the configuration screens once again.
NOTE: Keep in mind that all of your settings will need to be reconfigured.
If you don't have a password, the only way to access the Motorola Netopia® Gateway is the following:
1. Referring to the following diagram, find the round Reset Switch opening.
2. Carefully insert the point of a pen or an unwound paperclip into the opening.
If you press the factory default button for less than 1/2 a second, the unit will continue to run as nor-
mal.
If you press the factory default button for 1 second, when you release it, the Gateway will perform a fac-
tory reset, clear all settings and configurations, and reboot. Do not hold the button down too long (5 –
10 seconds). This will destroy any saved default settings as well.

CHAPTER 5 Advanced Troubleshooting
Advanced Troubleshooting can be accessed from the Gateway’s Web UI. Point your browser to
http://192.168.1.254
. The main page displays the device status. (If this does not make the Web UI
appear, then do a release and renew in Windows networking to see what the Gateway address really is.)
Administrator’s Handbook
208
Home Page
The home page displays basic information about the Gateway. This includes the ISP Username, Connection
Status, Device Address, Remote Gateway Address, DNS-1, and DNS-2. If you are not able to connect to the
Internet, verify the following:
Item Description
Local WAN IP Address This is the negotiated address of the Gateway’s WAN interface. This
address is usually dynamically assigned.
Remote Gateway
Address
This is the negotiated address of the remote router to which this Gate-
way is connected.
Status of Connection ‘Waiting for DSL’ is displayed while the Gateway is training. This
should change to ‘Up’ within two minutes. If not, make sure an RJ-11
cable is used, the Gateway is connected to the correct wall jack, and
the Gateway is not plugged into a micro filter.
‘No Connection’ is displayed if the Gateway has trained but failed the
PPPoE login. This usually means an invalid user name or password.
Go to Expert Mode and change the PPPoE name and password.
‘Up’ is displayed when the ADSL line is synched and the PPPoE (or
other connection method) session is established.
‘Down’ is displayed if the line connection fails.
ISP Username This should be the valid PPPoE username. If not, go to Expert Mode
and change to the correct username.
Device Address This is the negotiated address of the Gateway’s WAN interface.
This address is often dynamically assigned. Make sure this is a valid
address.
If this is not the correct assigned address, go to Expert Mode and ver-
ify the PPPoE address has not been manually assigned.
209
Device Gateway This is the negotiated address of the remote router. Make sure this is
a valid address.
If this is not the correct address, go to Expert Mode and verify the
address has not been manually assigned.
Primary DNS/
Secondary DNS
These are the negotiated DNS addresses. Make sure they are valid
DNS addresses. (Secondary DNS is optional, and may validly be blank
(0.0.0.0).)
If these are not the correct addresses, go to Expert Mode and verify
the addresses have not been manually assigned.
Serial Number This is the unique serial number of your Gateway.
Ethernet Status (if so equipped; not available on 3342/3342N/3352/3352N) This is
the status of your Ethernet connection. If you are connecting via Ether-
net, it should be Up.
USB Status This is the status of your USB connection (if equipped). If you are con-
necting via USB, it should be Up.
Software Release This is the version number of the current embedded software in your
Gateway.
Warranty Date This is the date that your Gateway was installed and enabled.
Date & Time If this is blank, you likely lack a network connection, or your NTP
server information is incorrect.
NOTE: The Home Page may also display Wireless, VoIP or Backup status depending on
model and configuration. See “Wireless” on page 53, “VoIP” on page 120, or “Backup”
on page 133 for more information.
If all of the above seem correct, then access Expert Mode by clicking the
Expert Mode
link.

Link: Ports: DSL
The DSL port selection shows the state of the DSL line, whether it is up or down and how many times the
Gateway attempted to train. The state should indicate ‘up’ for a working configuration. If it is not, check the
DSL cable and make sure it is plugged in correctly and not connected to a micro filter. Below is an example:
ADSL Line State: Up
ADSL Startup Attempts: 5
ADSL Modulation: DMT

215
Link: DSL: Circuit Configuration
The DSL Circuit Configuration screen shows the traffic sent and received over the DSL line as well as the
trained rate (upstream and downstream) and the VPI/VCI. Verify traffic is being sent over the DSL line. If
not, check the cabling and make sure the Gateway is not connected to a micro filter. Also verify the correct
PVC is listed, which should be 0/35 (some providers use other values, such as 8/35. Check with your pro-
vider). If not go to the WAN setup and change the VPI/VCI to its correct value. Below is an example:

Link: Network Tools
Three test tools are available from this page.
NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.
Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by sending an ICMP echo request and
waiting for a reply.
TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number of hops and the router
addresses of these hops.
1. To use the NSLookup capability, type an address (domain name or IP address) in the
text box and click the
NSLookup
button
Example: Show the IP Address for grosso.com.
Result: The DNS Server doing the lookup is displayed in the Server: and Address: fields. If the Name
Server can find your entry in its table, it is displayed in the Name: and Address: fields.
PING: The network tools section sends a PING from the Gateway to either the LAN or WAN to verify connec-
tivity. A PING could be either an IP address (163.176.4.32) or Domain Name (www.netopia.com).
2. To use the Ping capability, type a destination address (domain name or IP address) in
the text box and click the
Ping
button.
Example: Ping to grosso.com.
Server : controller2.netopia.com
Address : 143.137.137.9
Name : www.grosso.com
Address : 192.150.14.120

Starting and Ending a CLI Session
Open a telnet connection from a workstation on your network.
You initiate a telnet connection by issuing the following command from an IP host that supports telnet, for
example, a personal computer running a telnet application such as NCSA Telnet.
telnet <ip_address>
You must know the IP address of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway before you can make a telnet connection
to it. By default, your Motorola Netopia® Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as the IP address for its LAN inter-
face. You can use a Web browser to configure the Motorola Netopia® Gateway IP address.
Logging In
The command line interface log-in process emulates the log-in process for a UNIX host. To logon, enter the
username (either admin or user), and your password.
Entering the administrator password lets you display and update all Motorola Netopia® Gateway set-
tings.
Entering a user password lets you display (but not update) Motorola Netopia® Gateway settings.
When you have logged in successfully, the command line interface lists the username and the security level
associated with the password you entered in the diagnostic log.
Ending a CLI Session
You end a command line interface session by typing quit from the SHELL node of the command line inter-
face hierarchy.
Saving Settings
In CONFIG mode, the save command saves the working copy of the settings to the Gateway. The Gateway
automatically validates its settings when you save and displays a warning message if the configuration is
not correct.
Using the CLI Help Facility
The help command lets you display on-line help for SHELL and CONFIG commands. To display a list of the
commands available to you from your current location within the command line inter face hierarchy, enter
help.
To obtain help for a specific CLI command, type help <command>. You can truncate the
help
command
to
h
or a question mark when you request help for a CLI command.
227
About SHELL Commands
You begin in SHELL mode when you start a CLI session. SHELL mode lets you perform the following tasks
with your Motorola Netopia® Gateway:
Monitor its performance
Display and reset Gateway statistics
Issue administrative commands to restart Motorola Netopia® Gateway functions
SHELL Prompt
When you are in SHELL mode, the CLI prompt is the name of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway followed by a
right angle bracket (>). For example, if you open a CLI connection to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway named
“Netopia-3000/9437188,” you would see
Netopia-3000/9437188>
as your CLI prompt.
SHELL Command Shortcuts
You can truncate most commands in the CLI to their shortest unique string. For example, you can use the
truncated command
q
in place of the full
quit
command to exit the CLI. However, you would need to enter
rese
for the
reset
command, since the first characters of
reset
are common to the
restart
command.
The only commands you cannot truncate are
restart
and
clear
. To prevent accidental interruption of com-
munications, you must enter the
restart
and
clear
commands in their entirety.
You can use the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll backward and forward through recent commands you
have entered. Alternatively, you can use the
!!
command to repeat the last command you entered.
Administrator’s Handbook
228
SHELL Commands
Common Commands
arp
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
Sends an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request to match the
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
IP address to an
Ethernet hardware address.
clear [yes]
Clears the configuration settings in a Motorola Netopia® Gateway. If you do not use the optional yes qual-
ifier, you are prompted to confirm the clear command.
clear_certificate
Removes an SSL certificate that has been installed.
clear_log
Erases the log information stored in flash if persistent logging is enabled.
configure
Puts the command line interface into Configure mode, which lets you configure your Motorola Netopia®
Gateway with Config commands. Config commands are described starting on page 225.
diagnose
Runs a diagnostic utility to conduct a series of internal checks and loopback tests to verify network connec-
tivity over each interface on your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. The console displays the results of each test
as the diagnostic utility runs. If one test is dependent on another, the diagnostic utility indents its entry in
the console window. For example, the diagnostic utility indents the Check IP connect to Ethernet (LAN)
entry, since that test will not run if the Check Ethernet LAN Connect test fails.
Each test generates one of the following result codes:
download [
server_address
] [
filename
] [confirm]
This command installs a file of configuration parameters into the Motorola Netopia® Gateway from a TFTP
(Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server. The TFTP server must be accessible on your Ethernet network.
CODE Description
PASS The test was successful.
FAIL The test was unsuccessful.
SKIPPED The test was skipped because a test on which it depended failed, or
because the test did not apply to your particular setup or model.
PENDING The test timed out without producing a result. Try running the test again.
229
You can include one or more of the following arguments with the download command. If you omit argu-
ments, the console prompts you for this information.
The
server_address
argument identifies the IP address of the TFTP server from which you want to
copy the Motorola Netopia® Gateway configuration file.
The
filename
argument identifies the path and name of the configuration file on the TFTP server.
If you include the optional confirm keyword, the download begins as soon as all information is entered.
You can also download an SSL certificate file from a trusted Certification Authority (CA), on platforms that
support SSL, as follows:
download [-cert] [
server_address
] [
filename
] [confirm]
install [
server_address
] [
filename
] [confirm]
(Not supported on model 3342/3352)
Downloads a new version of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway operating software from a TFTP (Trivial File
Transfer Protocol) server, validates the software image, and programs the image into the Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway memory. After you install new operating software, you must restart the Motorola Netopia®
Gateway.
The
server_address
argument identifies the IP address of the TFTP server on which your Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway operating software is stored. The
filename
argument identifies the path and name of the
operating software file on the TFTP server.
If you include the optional keyword
confirm
, you will not be prompted to confirm whether or not you want
to perform the operation.
license [key]
This command installs a software upgrade key. An upgrade key is a purchased item, based on the serial
number of the gateway.
log
message_string
Adds the message in the
message_string
argument to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway diagnostic log.
loglevel [
level
]
Displays or modifies the types of log messages you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to record. If you
enter the loglevel command without the optional
level
argument, the command line interface dis-
plays the current log level setting.
You can enter the loglevel command with the
level
argument to specify the types of diagnostic mes-
sages you want to record. All messages with a level number equal to or greater than the level you specify
are recorded. For example, if you specify loglevel 3, the diagnostic log will retain high-level informational
messages (level 3), warnings (level 4), and failure messages (level 5).
Use the following values for the
level
argument:
Administrator’s Handbook
230
1 or low – Low-level informational messages or greater; includes trivial status messages.
2 or medium – Medium-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that can
help monitor network traffic.
3 or high – High-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that may be signif-
icant but do not constitute errors.
4 or warning – Warnings or greater; includes recoverable error conditions and useful operator infor-
mation.
5 or failure – Failures; includes messages describing error conditions that may not be recover-
able.
netstat -i
Displays the IP interfaces for your Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
netstat -r
Displays the IP routes stored in your Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
nslookup {
hostname
|
ip_address
}
Performs a domain name system lookup for a specified host.
The
hostname
argument is the name of the host for which you want DNS information; for example,
nslookup klaatu
.
The
ip_address
argument is the IP address, in dotted decimal notation, of the device for which you
want DNS information.
ping [-s
size
] [-c
count
]{
hostname
|
ip_address
}
Causes the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to issue a series of ICMP Echo requests for the device with the
specified name or IP address.
The
hostname
argument is the name of the device you want to ping; for example,
ping ftp.neto-
pia.com
.
The
ip_address
argument is the IP address, in dotted decimal notation, of the device you want to
locate. If a host using the specified name or IP address is active, it returns one or more ICMP Echo
replies, confirming that it is accessible from your network.
The
-s
size
argument lets you specify the size of the ICMP packet.
The
-c
count
argument lets you specify the number of ICMP packets generated for the ping request.
Values greater than 250 are truncated to 250.
You can use the ping command to determine whether a hostname or IP address is already in use on your
network. You cannot use the ping command to ping the Motorola Netopia® Gateway’s own IP address.
quit
Exits the Motorola Netopia® Gateway command line interface.
231
reset arp
Clears the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache on your unit.
reset atm
Resets the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) statistics.
reset cdmode
This command will set up one boot flag so that the next time a 3342N/3352N restarts or reboots (power
cycle), the Gateway will boot into CD-ROM mode instead of Gateway mode.
This command is only for the 3342N/3352N. If the Gateway is not a 3342N/3352N this command does
nothing but returns the message: "CD mode is not supported on this platform."
reset crash
Clears crash-dump information, which identifies the contents of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway registers
at the point of system malfunction.
reset dhcp server
Clears the DHCP lease table in the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
reset diffserv
Resets the Differentiated Services (diffserv) statistics.
reset enet [ all ]
Resets Ethernet statistics to zero. Resets individual LAN switch port statistics as well as wireless and WAN
Ethernet statistics (where applicable).
reset heartbeat
Restarts the heartbeat sequence.
reset ipmap
Clears the IPMap table (NAT).
reset log
Rewinds the diagnostic log display to the top of the existing Motorola Netopia® Gateway diagnostic log. The
reset log command does not clear the diagnostic log. The next show log command will display infor-
mation from the beginning of the log file.
Administrator’s Handbook
232
reset security-log
Clears the security monitoring log to make room to capture new entries.
reset wan-users [all |
ip-address
]
This function disconnects the specified WAN User to allow for other users to access the WAN. This function
is only available if the number of WAN Users is restricted and NAT is on. Use the all parameter to discon-
nect all users. If you logon as Admin you can disconnect any or all users. If you logon as User, you can only
disconnect yourself.
reset wan
This function resets WAN interface statistics.
reset wepkeys
This function allows you to force your wireless WEP key settings back to the default values, if there are
default values. For example, on some models, the WEP keys are based on the serial number. This allows
you to get back those default settings if you have changed them without the need to reset the entire config-
uration of the unit.
restart [
seconds
]
Restarts your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. If you include the optional
seconds

About CONFIG Commands
You reach the configuration mode of the command line interface by typing
configure
(or any truncation of
configure
, such as
con
or
config
) at the CLI SHELL prompt.
CONFIG Mode Prompt
When you are in CONFIG mode, the CLI prompt consists of the name of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway fol-
lowed by your current node in the hierarchy and two right angle brackets (>>). For example, when you enter
CONFIG mode (by typing
config
at the SHELL prompt), the Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>
prompt reminds you that you are at the top of the CONFIG hierarchy. If you move to the ip node in the CON-
FIG hierarchy (by typing ip at the CONFIG prompt), the prompt changes to Netopia-3000/9437188
(ip)>> to identify your current location.
Some CLI commands are not available until certain conditions are met. For example, you must enable IP for
an interface before you can enter IP settings for that interface.
Navigating the CONFIG Hierarchy
Moving from CONFIG to SHELL — You can navigate from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy back to
the SHELL level by entering quit at the CONFIG prompt and pressing RETURN.
Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> quit
Netopia-3000/9437188 >
Moving from
top
to a subnode — You can navigate from the top node to a subnode by entering the
node name (or the significant letters of the node name) at the CONFIG prompt and pressing RETURN. For
example, you move to the IP subnode by entering ip and pressing RETURN.
Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> ip
Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>>
As a shortcut, you can enter the significant letters of the node name in place of the full node name at the
CONFIG prompt. The significant characters of a node name are the letters that uniquely identify the node.
For example, since no other CONFIG node starts with b, you could enter one letter (“b”) to move to the
bridge node.
Jumping down several nodes at once — You can jump down several levels in the CONFIG hierarchy by
entering the complete path to a node.
Moving up one node — You can move up through the CONFIG hierarchy one node at a time by entering
the up command.
241
Jumping to the top node — You can jump to the top level from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy by
entering the top command.
Moving from one subnode to another — You can move from one subnode to another by entering a
partial path that identifies how far back to climb.
Moving from any subnode to any other subnode — You can move from any subnode to any other
subnode by entering a partial path that starts with a top-level CONFIG command.
Scrolling backward and forward through recent commands — You can use the Up and Down arrow
keys to scroll backward and forward through recent commands you have entered. When the command
you want appears, press Enter to execute it.
Entering Commands in CONFIG Mode
CONFIG commands consist of keywords and arguments. Keywords in a CONFIG command specify the action
you want to take or the entity on which you want to act. Arguments in a CONFIG command specify the val-
ues appropriate to your site. For example, the CONFIG command
set ip ethernet A
ip_address
consists of two keywords (
ip
, and
ethernet
A
) and one argument (
ip_address
). When you use the
command to configure your Gateway, you would replace the argument with a value appropriate to your site.
For example:
set ip ethernet A 192.31.222.57
Guidelines: CONFIG Commands
The following table provides guidelines for entering and formatting CONFIG commands.
If a command is ambiguous or miskeyed, the CLI prompts you to enter additional information. For example,
you must specify which virtual circuit you are configuring when you are setting up a Motorola Netopia®
Gateway.
Command
component Rules for entering CONFIG commands
Command verbs CONFIG commands must start with a command verb (set, view, delete).
You can truncate CONFIG verbs to three characters (set, vie, del).
CONFIG verbs are case-insensitive. You can enter “SET,“Set, or “set.
Keywords Keywords are case-insensitive. You can enter “Ethernet, “ETHERNET, or
“ethernet” as a keyword without changing its meaning.
Keywords can be abbreviated to the length that they are differentiated from
other keywords.
Argument Text Text strings can be as many as 64 characters long, unless otherwise speci-
fied. In some cases they may be as long as 255 bytes.
Special characters are represented using backslash notation.
Text strings may be enclosed in double (“) or single (‘) quote marks. If the
text string includes an embedded space, it must be enclosed in quotes.
Special characters are represented using backslash notation.
Numbers Enter numbers as integers, or in hexadecimal, where so noted.
IP addresses Enter IP addresses in dotted decimal notation (0 to 255).
Administrator’s Handbook
242
Displaying Current Gateway Settings
You can use the
view
command to display the current CONFIG settings for your Motorola Netopia® Gate-
way. If you enter the
view
command at the top level of the CONFIG hierarchy, the CLI displays the settings
for all enabled functions. If you enter the
view
command at an intermediate node, you see settings for that
node and its subnodes.
Step Mode: A CLI Configuration Technique
The Motorola Netopia® Gateway command line interface includes a step mode to automate the process of
entering configuration settings. When you use the CONFIG step mode, the command line interface prompts
you for all required and optional information. You can then enter the configuration values appropriate for
your site without having to enter complete CLI commands.
When you are in step mode, the command line interface prompts you to enter required and optional set-
tings. If a setting has a default value or a current setting, the command line interface displays the default
value for the command in parentheses. If a command has a limited number of acceptable values, those val-
ues are presented in brackets, with each value separated by a vertical line. For example, the following CLI
step command indicates that the default value is off and that valid entries are limited to on and off.
option (off) [on | off]: on
You can accept the default value for a field by pressing the Return key. To use a different value, enter it and
press Return.
You can enter the CONFIG step mode by entering
set
from the top node of the CONFIG hierarchy. You can
enter step mode for a particular service by entering
set
service_name
. In stepping set mode (press
Control-X <Return/Enter> to exit. For example:
Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> set system
...
system
name (“Netopia-3000/9437188”): Mycroft
Diagnostic Level (High): medium
Stepping mode ended.
Validating Your Configuration
You can use the validate CONFIG command to make sure that your configuration settings have been
entered correctly. If you use the validate command, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway verifies that all
required settings for all services are present and that settings are consistent.
Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> validate
Error: Subnet mask is incorrect
Global Validation did not pass inspection!
You can use the validate command to verify your configuration settings at any time. Your Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway automatically validates your configuration any time you save a modified configuration.
243
CONFIG Commands
This section describes the keywords and arguments for the various CONFIG commands.
Remote ATA Configuration Commands
Motorola Netopia® firmware supports configuration of a maximum of four Motorola Netopia® ATA profiles,
which are stored in the Gateway’s configuration database. When a Motorola Netopia® ATA is discovered,
the Gateway compares the MAC address of the ATA with one of the existing profiles stored in the database.
If there is a match, the configuration is downloaded to the Motorola Netopia® ATA, and the ATA is restarted.
Once the Motorola Netopia® ATA is restarted, it comes up with the newly downloaded configuration.

DSL Commands
ATM Settings. You can use the CLI to set up each ATM virtual circuit.
set atm option {on | off }
Enables the WAN interface of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to be configured using the Asynchronous
Transfer Mode (ATM) protocol.
set atm [vcc
n
] option {on | off }
Selects the virtual circuit for which further parameters are set. Up to eight VCCs are supported; the maxi-
mum number is dependent on your Motorola Netopia® Operating System tier and the capabilities that your
Service Provider offers.
set atm [vcc
n
] qos service-class { cbr | ubr | vbr }
Sets the Quality of Service class for the specified virtual circuit – Constant (cbr), Unspecified (ubr), or Vari-
able (vbr) Bit Rate.
ubr: No configuration is needed for UBR VCs. Leave the default value 0 (maximum line rate).
cbr: One parameter is required for CBR VCs. Enter the Peak Cell Rate that applies to the VC. This value
should be between 1 and the line rate. You set this value according to specifications defined by your ser-
vice provider.
vbr: Three parameters are required for VBR VCs. Enter the Peak Cell Rate, the Sustained Cell Rate,
and the Maximum Burst Size that apply to the VC. You set these values according to specifications
defined by your service provider.
set atm [vcc
n
] qos peak-cell-rate { 1 ...
n
}
If QoS class is set to cbr or vbr then specify the peak-cell-rate that should apply to the specified virtual
circuit. This value should be between 1 and the line rate.
The Peak Cell Rate (PCR) should be set to the maximum rate a PVC can oversubscribe its Sustained Cell
Rate (SCR). The Peak Cell Rate (see below) must be less than, or equal to the raw WAN (DSL) bit rate. The
Maximum Burst Size (MBS) is the number of cells that can be sent at the PCR rate, after which the PVC
must fall back to the SCR rate.
set atm [vcc
n
] qos sustained-cell-rate { 1 ...
n
}
If QoS class is set to vbr, then specify the sustained-cell-rate that should apply to the specified virtual cir-
cuit. This value should be less than, or equal to the Peak Cell Rate, which should be less than, or equal to
the line rate.
set atm [vcc
n
] qos max-burst-size { 1 ...
n
}
If QoS class is set to vbr then specify the max-burst-size that should apply to the specified virtual circuit.
This value is the maximum number of cells that can be transmitted at the Peak Cell Rate after which the
ATM VC transmission rate must drop to the Sustained Cell Rate.

Select the number of PPPoE sessions to be configured for VCC 1, up to a total of eight. The total number of
pppoe-sessions and PPPoE VCCs configured must be less than or equal to eight.
Bridging Settings
Bridging lets the Motorola Netopia® Gateway use MAC (Ethernet hardware) addresses to forward non-TCP/
IP traffic from one network to another. When bridging is enabled, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway maintains
a table of up to 512 MAC addresses. Entries that are not used within 30 seconds are dropped. If the bridg-
ing table fills up, the oldest table entries are dropped to make room for new entries.
Virtual circuits that use IP framing cannot be bridged.
NOTE:
For bridging in the 3341 (or any model with a USB port), you cannot set the bridge option off,
or bridge ethernet option off; these are on by default because of the USB port.
ppp-vcmux PPP over ATM, VC-muxed
ppp-llc PPP over ATM, LLC-SNAP
ether-llc RFC-1483, bridged Ethernet, LLC-SNAP
ip-llc RFC-1483, routed IP, LLC-SNAP

mins).
Administrator’s Handbook
248
DHCP Settings
As a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) server, your Motorola Netopia® Gateway can assign IP
addresses and provide configuration information to other devices on your network dynamically. A device that
acquires its IP address and other TCP/IP configuration settings from the Motorola Netopia® Gateway can
use the information for a fixed period of time (called the DHCP lease).
Common Commands
set dhcp option { off | server | relay-agent }
Enables or disables DHCP services in the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. You must enable DHCP services
before you can enter other DHCP settings for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
If you turn off DHCP services and save the new configuration, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway clears its
DHCP settings.
set dhcp start-address
ip_address
If you selected server, specifies the first address in the DHCP address range. The Motorola Netopia®
Gateway can reserve a sequence of up to 253 IP addresses within a subnet, beginning with the specified
address for dynamic assignment.
set dhcp end-address
ip_address
If you selected server, specifies the last address in the DHCP address range.
set dhcp lease-time
lease-time
If you selected server, specifies the default length for DHCP leases issued by the Motorola Netopia®
Gateway. Enter lease time in dd:hh:mm:ss (day/hour/minute/second) format.
set dhcp option-group
name
Specifies a name for one of up to eight DHCP Option Groups. Each Option Group can have a name of
between 1 and 15 characters. The name is used in the DHCP filterset syntax to choose what group of gen-
options is to be served to a particular DHCP Client. See DHCP Generic Options” on page 249 and “DHCP
Option Filtering” on page 252.
Option Groups refer to gen-options; they do not contain them. Deleting a gen-option from an option group
does not delete the option. Adding a gen-option to an option-group does not preclude it from being added to
another option-group.
set dhcp default-option-group
name
Sets the option group specified by
name
as the default.
set dhcp server-address
ip_address
If you selected relay-agent, specifies the IP address of the relay agent server.
249
set dhcp range [ 2... 8 ] start-address
ip_address
Specifies the starting IP address of DHCP range
n
when subnet
n
option is on. See Additional subnets
on page 262.
set dhcp range [ 2... 8 ] end-address
ip_address
Specifies the ending IP address of DHCP range
n
when subnet
n
option is on. See “Additional subnets”
on page 262.
set dhcp reserved ip-address
x.x.x.x
mac-address
y-y-y-y-y-y
If you selected server, reserves the specified IP address from the DHCP pool to the specified MAC
address. These are list items; a total of 16 reserved addresses are supported. Secondary ranges will all
make use of the dhcp lease-time value.
DHCP Generic Options
Beginning with Firmware Version 7.7.2, you can specify DHCP Generic Options which allow you to configure
the content to be served for particular option numbers.
set dhcp gen-option name
name
Specifies a DHCP generic option set named name of one to 15 characters. You can specify up to 20 gen-
options. Each can contain up to 100 bytes of data, up to a maximum of 912 bytes of options data total. An
option will be served only if the client requests it.
set dhcp gen-option option [ 1 – 255 ]
Specifies the DHCP option by number, 1 – 255. The following table shows the formats and sizes for known
options, and whether or not you can configure a gen-option of that type.

DHCP Option Filtering
Beginning with Firmware Version 7.7, support for DHCP option filtering is provided via the filterset settings.
set dhcp filterset name "
string
" rule
n
type [ dhcp-option | hw-address |
requested-option ]
Specifies a DHCP filterset named string as one of three possible types:
The rule can either specify an option and option contents, dhcp-option; a client hardware address range,
hw-address; or an option the client is requesting, requested-option. For hw-address, you will need to
enter start-address and end-address values; for the others a dhcp-option parameter must be set.
By default a rule is of type dhcp-option, for backwards compatibility.
set dhcp filterset name "
string
" rule
n
dhcp-option [ 0... 255 ]
Creates a DHCP filterset named
string
, for example “settopbox,” with rule number
n
.
Up to two filtersets can be added. Your Gateway supports a single LAN DHCP server instance, but an addi-
tional filterset is available for use when bridging, to block undesired DHCP traffic. Up to 8 rules can be cre-
ated in the filterset, which are evaluated in order.
dhcp-option determines which DHCP option should be compared. A typical value would be to use option
60 data for comparison, but allowing this value to be configured permits more flexibility.
set dhcp filterset name "settopbox" rule 1 type dhcp-option
set dhcp filterset name "

DMT Settings
DSL Commands
set dmt dsl-annex-support [ off | on ]
This controls whether other annex support (just as Annex M) is enabled. Default is off.
set dmt type [ lite | dmt | ansi | multi | adsl2 | adsl2+ | readsl2 |
adsl2anxm | adsl2+anxm ]
Selects the type of Discrete Multitone (DMT) asynchronous digital subscriber line (ADSL) protocol to use for
the WAN interface.
The type value also supports the following settings on certain model units: adsl2, adsl2+, readsl2,
adsl2anxm, adsl2+anxm.
NOTE:
Some dmt type settings are now supported for many Annex B (335xN) platforms. 2200 Series
and 33xxN Series models are supported. Currently, adsl2anxm and adsl2+anxm are not sup-
ported in Annex B.
set dmt autoConfig [ off | on ]
Enables support for automatic VPI/VCI detection and configuration. When set to on (the default), a pre-
defined list of VPI/VCI pairs are searched to find a valid configuration for your ADSL line. Entering a value for
the VPI or VCI setting will disable this feature.
set dmt dmt dying-gasp [ default | off | on ]
Enables or disables Gateway “dying gasp” behavior in cases of power failure. Default is off.
set dmt wiringMode [ auto | tip_ring | A_A1 ]
(not supported on all models) This command configures the wiring mode setting for your ADSL line. Select-
ing auto (the default) causes the Gateway to detect which pair of wires (inner or outer pair) are in use on
your phone line. Specifying tip_ring forces the inner pair to be used; and A_A1 the outer pair.
set dmt metallic-termination [ auto | disabled | always_on ]
(not supported on all models) This command allows you to apply a sealing current to “dry” DSL lines so
that the wiring doesn’t corrode.
auto - The device will scan for standard telephone service (POTS). If it finds POTS, it disables metallic
termination. If it does not find POTS during the search period, then metallic termination is enabled.
disabled - There is no POTS detection, and metallic termination is disabled.
always_on - The device will scan for POTS for information only. Metallic termination is always enabled.
255
Domain Name System Settings
Domain Name System (DNS) is an information service for TCP/IP networks that uses a hierarchical naming
system to identify network domains and the hosts associated with them. You can identify a primary DNS
server and one secondary server.
Common Commands
set dns domain-name
domain-name
Specifies the default domain name for your network. When an application needs to resolve a host name, it
appends the default domain name to the host name and asks the DNS server if it has an address for the
“fully qualified host name.”
set dns primary-address
ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the primary DNS name server.
set dns proxy-enable
This allows you to disable the default behavior of acting as a DNS proxy. The default is on.
set dns secondary-address
ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS name server. Enter
0.0.0.0
if your network does not have a
secondary DNS name server.
set dns configured-dns-priority [ 0 - 255 ]
Sets the configured DNS priority relative to acquired DNS. These server addresses may be acquired via
DHCP (client), PPP, or statically configured. A “DNS learned-server-priority” is assigned to each configured
interface. By default, configured DNSes have the highest priority (lowest number), then PPP-acquired
DNSes, and DHCP-acquired DNSes have lowest priority (highest number).
The default priorities for each type are:
Configured DNSes: 10
PPP-acquired: 20
DHCP-acquired: 30
Administrator’s Handbook
256
Dynamic DNS Settings
Dynamic DNS support allows you to use the free services of www.dyndns.org. Dynamic DNS automatically
directs any public Internet request for your computer's name to your current dynamically-assigned IP
address. This allows you to get to the IP address assigned to your Gateway, even though your actual IP
address may change as a result of a PPPoE connection to the Internet.
set dynamic-dns option [ off | dyndns.org ]
set dynamic-dns ddns-host-name
myhostname
.dyndns.org
set dynamic-dns ddns-user-name
myusername
set dynamic-dns ddns-user-password
myuserpassword
Enables or disables dynamic DNS services. The default is off. If you specify dyndns.org, you must supply
your hostname, username for the service, and password.
Because different dynamic DNS vendors use different proprietary protocols, currently only www.dyndns.org
is supported.
257
IGMP Settings
NOTE: IGMP Version 3 is supported beginning with Firmware Version 7.7.
See “IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)” on page 100 for detailed explanation.
You can set the following options:
IGMP Snooping – enables the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to “listen in” to IGMP traffic. The Gateway
discovers multicast group membership for the purpose of restricting multicast transmissions to only
those ports which have requested them. This helps to reduce overall network traffic from streaming
media and other bandwidth-intensive IP multicast applications.
Robustness – a way of indicating how sensitive to lost packets the network is. IGMP can recover from
robustness minus 1 lost IGMP packet. The default value is 2.
Query Interval– the amount of time in seconds between IGMP General Query messages sent by the
querier gateway. The default query interval is 125 seconds.
Query Response Interval – the maximum amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP router
waits to receive a response to a General Query message. The default query response interval is 10 sec-
onds and must be less than the query interval.
Unsolicited Report Interval – the amount of time in seconds between repetitions of a particular com-
puter’s initial report of membership in a group. The default unsolicited report interval is 10 seconds.
Querier Version – select a version of the IGMP Querier: version 1, version 2, or version 3. If you know
you will be communicating with other hosts that are limited to v1 or v2, for backward compatibility, select
accordingly; otherwise, allow the default v3.
NOTE:
IGMP Querier version is relevant only if the router is configured for IGMP forwarding. If any
IGMP v1 routers are present on the subnet, the querier must use IGMP v1. The use of IGMP v1
must be administratively configured, since there is no reliable way of dynamically determining
whether IGMP v1 routers are present on a network. IGMP forwarding is enabled per IP Profile
and WAN Connection Profile.
Last Member Query Interval – the amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP gateway waits
to receive a response to a Group-Specific Query message. The last member query interval is also the
amount of time in seconds between successive Group-Specific Query messages. The default last mem-
ber query interval is 1 second (10 deci-seconds).
Last Member Query Count – the number of Group-Specific Query messages sent before the gateway
assumes that there are no members of the host group being queried on this interface. The default last
member query count is 2.
Fast Leave – set to off by default, fast leave enables a non-standard expedited leave mechanism. The
querier keeps track of which client is requesting which channel by IP address. When a leave message is
received, the querier can check its internal table to see if there are any more clients on this group. If
there are none, it immediately sends an IGMP leave message to the upstream querier.
Log Enable – If set to on, all IGMP messages on both the LAN and the WAN will be logged.
Wireless Multicast to Unicast conversion – Only available if IGMP Snooping is enabled. If set to on,
the Gateway replaces the multicast MAC-address with the physical MAC-address of the wireless client. If
there is more than one wireless client interested in the same multicast group, the router will revert to
multicasting the stream immediately. When one or more wireless clients leave a group, and the router
Administrator’s Handbook
258
determines that only a single wireless client is interested in the stream, it will once again unicast the
stream.
set igmp snooping [ off | on ]
Enables IGMP Snooping.
set igmp robustness
value
Sets IGMP robustness range: from 2 – 255. The default is 2.
set igmp query-intvl
value
Sets the query-interval range: from 10 seconds – 600 seconds, The default is 125 seconds.
set igmp query-response-intvl
value
Sets the query-response interval range: from 5 deci-seconds (tenths of a second) – 255 deci-seconds. The
default is 100 deci-seconds.
set igmp unsol-report-intvl
value
Sets the unsolicited report interval: the amount of time in seconds between repetitions of a particular com-
puter’s initial report of membership in a group. The default is 10 seconds.
set igmp version [ 1 | 2 | 3 ]
Sets the IGMP querier version: version 1, version 2, or version 3. If you know you will be communicating
with other hosts that are limited to v1, for backward compatibility, select 1; otherwise, allow the default 3.
set igmp last-member-query-intvl
value
Sets the last member query interval: the amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP gateway waits
to receive a response to a Group-Specific Query message. The last member query interval is also the
amount of time in seconds between successive Group-Specific Query messages. The default is 1 second
(10 deci-seconds).
set igmp last-member-query-count
value
Sets the last member query count: the number of Group-Specific Query messages sent before the gateway
assumes that there are no members of the host group being queried on this interface. The default is 2.
set igmp fast-leave [ off | on ]
Sets fast leave on or off. Set to off by default, fast leave enables a non-standard expedited leave mecha-
nism. The querier keeps track of which client is requesting which channel by IP address. When a leave mes-
sage is received, the querier can check its internal table to see if there are any more clients on this group.
If there are none, it immediately sends an IGMP leave message to the upstream querier.
259
set igmp wireless-m2u [ on | off ]
This command allows you enable or disable wireless multicast-to-unicast if igmp snooping is set to on.
set igmp log-enable [ on | off ]
If set to on, all IGMP messages on both the LAN and the WAN will be logged. Default is off.
IP Settings
You can use the command line interface to specify whether TCP/IP is enabled, identify a default Gateway,
and to enter TCP/IP settings for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway LAN and WAN ports.
NOTE:
For the DSL platform you must identify the virtual PPP interface [vccn], a number from 1 to 8.
Common Settings
set ip option { on | off }
Enables or disables TCP/IP services in the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. You must enable TCP/IP services
before you can enter other TCP/IP settings for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. If you turn off TCP/IP ser-
vices and save the new configuration, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway clears its TCP/IP settings.
ARP Timeout Settings
set ip arp-timeout [ 60 ... 6000 ]
Sets the timeout value for ARP timeout. Default = 600 secs (10 mins); range = 60 secs - 6000 secs (1–
100 mins).
DSL Settings
set ip dsl vccn address
ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the virtual circuit. Enter 0.0.0.0 if you want the virtual circuit to obtain its IP
address from a remote DHCP server.
set ip dsl vccn broadcast
broadcast_address
Specifies the broadcast address for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. IP hosts use the
broadcast address to send messages to every host on your network simultaneously.
The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broad-
cast address for the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.
Administrator’s Handbook
260
set ip dsl vccn netmask
netmask
Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. The subnet mask speci-
fies which bits of the 32-bit binary IP address represents network information. The default subnet mask for
most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask).
set ip dsl
vccn
restrictions { admin-disabled | none }
Specifies restrictions on the types of traffic the Motorola Netopia® Gateway accepts over the DSL virtual
circuit. The admin-disabled argument means that access to the device via telnet, web, and SNMP is
disabled. RIP and ICMP traffic is still accepted. The none argument means that all traffic is accepted.
set ip dsl vccn addr-mapping { on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when
communicating with remote routers. Address mapping lets you conceal details of your network from remote
routers. It also permits all LAN devices to share a single IP address. By default, address mapping is turned
“On”.
set ip dsl vccn auto-sensing [ off | dhcp/pppoe | pppoe/pppoa ]
Enables or disables DHCP/PPPoE or PPPoE/PPPoA autosensing on the specified interface. Setting this to
DHCP/PPPoE enables automatic sensing of your WAN connection type: PPPoE or DHCP. The gateway
attempts to connect using PPPoE first. If the Gateway fails to connect after 60 seconds, it switches to
DHCP. As soon as it can connect via DHCP, the Gateway chooses and sets DHCP as its default. Otherwise,
after attempting to connect via DHCP for 60 seconds, the Gateway switches back to PPPoE. The Gateway
will continue to switch back and forth in this manner until it successfully connects. Similarly, selecting
PPPoE/PPPoA causes the Gateway to attempt to connect by trying these protocols in parallel, and using
the first one that is successful.
set ip dsl vccn mcast-fwd [ on | off }
Enables or disables multi-cast forwarding on the specified interface. If set to on, this interface acts as an
IGMP proxy host, and IGMP packets are transmitted and received on this interface on behalf of IGMP hosts
on the LAN interface.
set ip dsl vccn igmp-null-source-addr { on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to identify the source IP address of every IGMP
packet transmitted from this interface as 0.0.0.0 when mcast-fwd is set to on. This complies with the
requirements of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly advertised IP address on the WAN interface.
set ip dsl vccn unnumbered [ on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to have its WAN interface unnumbered, i.e. set
to 0. unnumbered option is only available if the address is set to 0 for the interface. Enables or disables
unnumbered IP addressing (where an address of 0 is allowed AND the DHCP client is disabled) on the spec-
ified interface. This setting applies to native IP as well as PPP inter faces to support running an IPoE inter-
face without an address.
261
set ip dsl vccn rip-send { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to advertise its routing tables to other routers. RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) is an extension of the original
Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP packets.
While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 supports several additional features, includ-
ing inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting
(which reduces the load on hosts which do not support routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5 authentication is
an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are advertised.
Depending on your network needs, you can configure your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to support RIP-1,
RIP-2, or RIP-2MD5.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31
characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 support.
set ip dsl vccn rip-receive
{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of
31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 support.
Ethernet LAN Settings
set ip ethernet A option { on | off }
Enables or disables communications through the designated Ethernet port in the Gateway. You must enable
TCP/IP functions for an Ethernet port before you can configure its network settings.
set ip ethernet A address
ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway on the local area network. The IP address you
assign to the local Ethernet inter face must be unique on your network. By default, the Motorola Netopia®
Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as its LAN IP address.
set ip ethernet A broadcast
broadcast_address
Specifies the broadcast address for the local Ethernet interface. IP hosts use the broadcast address to
send messages to every host on your network simultaneously.
The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broad-
cast address for the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.
Administrator’s Handbook
262
set ip ethernet A netmask
netmask
Specifies the subnet mask for the local Ethernet inter face. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-
bit binary IP address represent network information. The default subnet mask for most networks is
255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask).
set ip ethernet A restrictions { none | admin-disabled }
Specifies whether an administrator can open a telnet connection to a Motorola Netopia® Gateway over an
Ethernet inter face (A = the LAN) to monitor and configure the unit.
The admin-disabled argument prevents access to the device via telnet, web, and SNMP.
By default, administrative restrictions are none on the LAN, but admin-disabled is set on the WAN. This
means that, by default, an administrator can open, for example, a telnet connection from the LAN, but not
the WAN.
set ip ethernet A rip-send
{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to advertise its routing tables to other routers on your network. RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) is an extension
of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP
packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 supports several additional fea-
tures, including inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of
broadcasting (which reduces the load on hosts which do not support routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5
authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when
routes are advertised.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31
characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 support.
Depending on your network needs, you can configure your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to support RIP-1,
RIP-2, or RIP-2MD5.
set ip ethernet A rip-receive { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers on your network.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of
31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 support.
Additional subnets
See “DHCP Settings” on page 248 for subnet range configuration commands.
set ip ethernet A subnet [ 2 ... 8 ] option [ on | off ]
Enables or disables additional LAN subnets. Up to seven additional subnets may be configured.
263
set ip ethernet A subnet
n
address
ip_address
Specifies an IP address for the subnet
n

Default IP Gateway Settings
set ip gateway option { on | off }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should send packets to a default Gateway if it does not
know how to reach the destination host.
set ip gateway interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn }
Specifies how the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should route information to the default Gateway. If you
select ip-address, you must enter the IP address of a host on a local or remote network. If you specify
ppp, the Motorola Netopia® unit uses the default gateway being used by the remote PPP peer.
IP-over-PPP Settings. Use the following commands to configure settings for routing IP over a virtual PPP
interface.
NOTE:
For a DSL platform you must identify the virtual PPP interface [vccn], a number from 1 to 8.
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] option { on | off }
Enables or disables IP routing through the virtual PPP interface. By default, IP routing is turned on. If you
turn off IP routing and save the new configuration, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway clears IP routing set-
tings
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] address
ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the virtual PPP interface. If you specify an IP address other than 0.0.0.0, your
Motorola Netopia® Gateway will not negotiate its IP address with the remote peer. If the remote peer does
not accept the IP address specified in the
ip_address
argument as valid, the link will not come up.
The default value for the
ip_address
argument is 0.0.0.0, which indicates that the virtual PPP interface
will use the IP address assigned to it by the remote peer. Note that the remote peer must be configured to
supply an IP address to your Motorola Netopia® Gateway if you enter 0.0.0.0 for the
ip_address
argu-
ment.
Administrator’s Handbook
264
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] peer-address
ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the peer on the other end of the PPP link. If you specify an IP address other than
0.0.0.0, your Motorola Netopia® Gateway will not negotiate the remote peer's IP address. If the remote
peer does not accept the address in the
ip_address
argument as its IP address (typically because it has
been configured with another IP address), the link will not come up.
The default value for the
ip_address
argument is 0.0.0.0, which indicates that the virtual PPP interface
will accept the IP address returned by the remote peer. If you enter 0.0.0.0, the peer system must be con-
figured to supply this address.
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] restrictions { admin-disabled | none }
Specifies restrictions on the types of traffic the Motorola Netopia® Gateway accepts over the PPP virtual
circuit. The admin-disabled argument means that access to the device via telnet, web, and SNMP is
disabled. RIP and ICMP traffic is still accepted. The none argument means that all traffic is accepted.
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] addr-mapping [ on | off ]
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when
communicating with remote routers. Address mapping lets you conceal details of your network from remote
routers. It also permits all LAN devices to share a single IP address. By default, address mapping is turned
“On”.
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] auto-sensing [ off | dhcp/pppoe | pppoe/pppoa ]
Enables or disables DHCP/PPPoE or PPPoE/PPPoA autosensing on the specified interface. Setting this to
DHCP/PPPoE enables automatic sensing of your WAN connection type: PPPoE or DHCP. The gateway
attempts to connect using PPPoE first. If the Gateway fails to connect after 60 seconds, it switches to
DHCP. As soon as it can connect via DHCP, the Gateway chooses and sets DHCP as its default. Otherwise,
after attempting to connect via DHCP for 60 seconds, the Gateway switches back to PPPoE. The Gateway
will continue to switch back and forth in this manner until it successfully connects. Similarly, selecting
PPPoE/PPPoA causes the Gateway to attempt to connect by trying these protocols in parallel, and using
the first one that is successful.
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] rip-send { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway unit should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to advertise its routing tables to routers on the other side of the PPP link. An extension of the original
Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1), RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) expands the amount of useful information in the
packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 supports several new features. For
example, inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broad-
casting. This last feature reduces the load on hosts which do not support routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5
authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when
routes are advertised.
This command is only available when address mapping for the specified virtual circuit is turned “off”.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31
characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 support.
265
set ip ip-ppp [
vccn
] rip-receive { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers on the other side of the PPP
link.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of
31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 support.
set ip ip-ppp vcc
n
igmp-null-source-addr [ on | off ]
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to identify the source IP address of every IGMP
packet transmitted from this interface as 0.0.0.0 when mcast-fwd is set to on. This complies with the
requirements of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly advertised IP address on the WAN interface.
set ip ip-ppp vcc
n
mcast-fwd [ on | off ]
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway interface to act as an IGMP proxy host.
set ip ip-ppp vcc

Administrator’s Handbook
266
Static ARP Settings
Your Motorola Netopia® Gateway maintains a dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table to map IP
addresses to Ethernet (MAC) addresses. Your Motorola Netopia® Gateway populates this ARP table dynam-
ically, by retrieving IP address/MAC address pairs only when it needs them. Optionally, you can define static
ARP entries to map IP addresses to their corresponding Ethernet MAC addresses. Unlike dynamic ARP table
entries, static ARP table entries do not time out.
You can configure as many as 16 static ARP table entries for a Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Use the follow-
ing commands to add static ARP entries to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway static ARP table:
set ip static-arp ip-address
ip_address
Specifies the IP address for the static ARP entry. Enter an IP address in the
ip_address
argument in dot-
ted decimal format. The
ip_address
argument cannot be 0.0.0.0.
set ip static-arp ip-address
ip_address
hardware-address
MAC_address
Specifies the Ethernet hardware address for the static ARP entry. Enter an Ethernet hardware address in
the
MAC_address
argument in
nn.nn.nn.nn.nn.nn
(hexadecimal) format.
IGMP Forwarding
set ip igmp-forwarding [ off | on ]
Turns IP IGMP forwarding off or on. The default is off.
IPsec Passthrough
set ip ipsec-passthrough [ off | on ]
Turns IPsec client passthrough off or on. The default is on.
IP Prioritization
set ip prioritize [ off | on ]
Allows you to support traffic that has the TOS bit set. This defaults to off.
267
Differentiated Services (DiffServ)
set diffserv option [ off | on ]
Turns the DiffServ option off (default) or on. on enables the service and IP TOS bits are used, even if no
flows are defined. Consequently, if the end-point nodes provide TOS settings from an application that can
be interpreted as one of the supported states, the Gateway will handle it as if it actively marked the TOS
field itself.
NOTE:
The Gateway itself will not override TOS bit settings made by the endpoints. Support for
source-provided IP TOS priorities within the Gateway is achieved simply by turning the Diff-
Serve option “on” and by setting the lohi-asymmetry to adjust the behavior of the Gateway’s
internal queues.
set diffserv lohi-ratio [ 60 - 100 percent ]
Sets a percentage between 60 and 100 used to regulate the level of packets allowed to be pending in the
low priority queue. The default is 92. It can be used in some degree to adjust the relative throughput band-
width for low- versus high-priority traffic.
NOTE:
diffserv lohi-ratio has been removed for VDSL, ADSL bonded units.

Defines or edits a custom flow. Select a
name
for the custom-flow from the set command. The CLI will step
into the newly-named or previously-defined flow for editing.
protocol – Allows you to choose the IP protocol for the stream: TCP, UDP, ICMP, or other.
other is appropriate for setting up flows on protocols with non-standard port definitions, for example,
IPSEC or PPTP. If you select other, an additional field, numbered-protocol will appear with a range of
0–255. Choose the protocol number from this field.
direction – Allows you to choose whether to apply the marking and gateway queue behavior for inbound
packets, outbound packets, or to both. If the Gateway is used as an “edge” gateway, its more important
function is to mark the packets for high-priority streams in the outbound direction.
start-port/end-port – Allows you to specify a range of ports to check for a particular flow, if the protocol
selection is TCP or UDP.
inside-ip/mask – If you want packets originating from a certain LAN IP address to be marked, enter the
IP address and subnet mask here. If you leave the address equal to zero, this check is ignored for out-
bound packets. The check is always ignored for inbound packets. The DiffServe queuing function must
be applied ahead of NAT; and, before NAT re-maps the inbound packets, all inbound packets are des-
tined for the Gateway's WAN IP address.
outside-ip/mask – If you want packets destined for and originating from a certain WAN IP address to be
marked, enter this address and subnet mask here. If you leave the address equal to zero, the outside
address check is ignored. For outbound flows, the outside address is the destination IP address for the
packets. For inbound packets, the outside address is the source IP address for the packets.
Note:
When setting the Inside/Outside IP Address/Netmask settings, note that a netmask value can be used
to configure for a network rather than a single IP address.
qos – Allows you to specify the Quality of Service for the flow: off, assure, expedite or network-con-
trol. These are used both to mark the IP TOS byte and to distribute packets into the queues as if they
were marked by the source.
QoS Setting TOS Bit Value Behavior
Off TOS=000 This custom flow is disabled. You can activate it by selecting one
of the two settings below. This setting allows you to pre-define
flows without actually activating them.
Assure TOS=001 Use normal queuing and throughput rules, but do not drop pack-
ets if possible. Appropriate for applications with no guaranteed
delivery mechanism.
Expedite TOS=101 Use minimum delay. Appropriate for VoIP and video applications.
Network Control TOS=111 Use highest possible priority.

Queue Configuration
Beginning with Firmware Version 7.7.4, the queuing characteristics of all “N” and “-02” model Gateway’s
WAN interface can now be configured for:
strict priority queuing (as currently)
weighted fair queuing
rate-limiting funnel
Note:
The configuration mechanism is designed to be flexible enough to accommodate complex
queuing requirements. Configurations not supported by the Gateway will be flagged during con-
figuration verification.
You configure the WAN outbound queue as follows:
create and configure one or more queues, which can be a basic queue or a priority queue comprising a
group of basic queues, a weighted fair queue comprising a group of basic queues, or a funnel compris-
ing a group of basic queues;
assign a queue instance to the Ethernet WAN interface;
map packet attributes to a queue.
The same queue name can be assigned to multiple interfaces which require identical queue configuration,
however currently the only interface available for queueing configuration is ethernet 1.
To help you configure queues, and to maintain compatibility with previous firmware releases, several
queues are set up automatically on upgrade to Version 7.7, or upon a factory reset.

SIP Passthrough
set ip sip-passthrough [ on | off ]
Turns Session Initiation Protocol application layer gateway client passthrough on or off. The default is on.
Session Initiation Protocol, is a signaling protocol for Internet conferencing, telephony, presence, events
notification and instant messaging.
RTSP Passthrough
set ip ethernet B rtsp-passthrough [ off | on ]
Turns Real Time Streaming Protocol application layer gateway client passthrough on or off. RTSP is a proto-
col used for streaming media. It allows a client remotely to control a streaming media server. A typical
application is Video-on-Demand (VoD). The default is on.
Static Route Settings
A static route identifies a manually configured pathway to a remote network. Unlike dynamic routes, which
are acquired and confirmed periodically from other routers, static routes do not time out. Consequently,
static routes are useful when working with PPP, since an intermittent PPP link may make maintenance of
dynamic routes problematic.
You can configure as many as 32 static IP routes for a Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Use the following com-
mands to maintain static routes to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway routing table:
set ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
Specifies the network address for the static route. Enter a network address in the
net_address
argu-
ment in dotted decimal format. The
net_address
argument cannot be 0.0.0.0.
set ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
netmask
netmask
Specifies the subnet mask for the IP network at the other end of the static route. Enter the
netmask
argu-
ment in dotted decimal format. The subnet mask associated with the destination network must represent
the same network class (A, B, or C) or a lower class (such as a class C subnet mask for class B network
number) to be valid.
277
set ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn }
Specifies the interface through which the static route is accessible.
set ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
gateway-address
gate_address
Specifies the IP address of the Gateway for the static route. The default Gateway must be located on a net-
work connected to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway configured interface.
set ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
metric
integer
Specifies the metric (hop count) for the static route. The default metric is 1. Enter a number from 1 to 15
for the integer argument to indicate the number of routers (actual or best guess) a packet must traverse to
reach the remote network.
You can enter a metric of 1 to indicate either:
The remote network is one router away and the static route is the best way to reach it;
The remote network is more than one router away but the static route should not be replaced by a
dynamic route, even if the dynamic route is more efficient.
set ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
rip-advertise [ splitHorizon | always | never ]
Specifies whether the gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to advertise to
other routers on your network and which mode to use. The default is splitHorizon.
delete ip static-routes destination-network
net_address
Deletes a static route. Deleting a static route removes all information associated with that route.
IPMaps Settings
set ip-maps name <
name
> internal-ip <
ip address
>
Specifies the name and static ip address of the LAN device to be mapped.
set ip-maps name <
name
> external-ip <
ip address
>
Specifies the name and static ip address of the WAN device to be mapped.
Up to 8 mapped static IP addresses are supported.

278
Network Address Translation (NAT) Default Settings
NAT default settings let you specify whether you want your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to forward NAT traf-
fic to a default server when it doesn’t know what else to do with it. The NAT default host function is useful
in situations where you cannot create a specific NAT pinhole for a traffic stream because you cannot antici-
pate what port number an application might use. For example, some network games select arbitrary port
numbers when a connection is being opened. By identifying your computer (or another host on your network)
as a NAT default server, you can specify that NAT traffic that would otherwise be discarded by the Motorola
Netopia® Gateway should be directed to a specific hosts.
set nat-default mode [ off | default-server | ip-passthrough ]
Specifies whether you want your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to forward unsolicited traffic from the WAN to
a default server or an IP passthrough host when it doesn’t know what else to do with it. See “Default
Server” on page 89 for more information.
set nat-default dhcp-enable [ on | off ]
Allows the IP passthrough host to acquire its IP address via DHCP, if ip-passthrough is enabled.
set nat-default address
ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the NAT default server.
set nat-default host-hardware-address
MAC_address
}
Specifies the hardware (MAC) address of the IP passthrough host. If the MAC address is specified as all-
zeroes, the first DHCP client that requests an IP address gets the passthrough address.
Network Address Translation (NAT) Pinhole Settings
NAT pinholes let you pass specific types of network traffic through the NAT interfaces on the Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway. NAT pinholes allow you to route selected types of network traffic, such as FTP requests or
HTTP (Web) connections, to a specific host behind the Motorola Netopia® Gateway transparently.
To set up NAT pinholes, you identify the type(s) of traffic you want to redirect by port number, and you spec-
ify the internal host to which each specified type of traffic should be directed.
The following list identifies protocol type and port number for common TCP/IP protocols:
FTP (TCP 21)
telnet (TCP 23)
SMTP (TCP 25),
TFTP (UDP 69)
SNMP (TCP 161, UDP 161)
set pinhole name
name
Specifies the identifier for the entry in the router's pinhole table. You can name pinhole table entries
sequentially (1, 2, 3), by port number (21, 80, 23), by protocol, or by some other naming scheme.
279
set pinhole name
name
protocol-select { tcp | udp }
Specifies the type of protocol being redirected.
set pinhole name
name
external-port-start [ 0 - 49151 ]
Specifies the first port number in the range being translated.
set pinhole name
name
external-port-end [ 0 - 49151 ]
Specifies the last port number in the range being translated.
set pinhole name
name
internal-ip
internal-ip
Specifies the IP address of the internal host to which traffic of the specified type should be transferred.
set pinhole name name internal-port [ 0 - 65535 ]
Specifies the port number your Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use when forwarding traffic of the spec-
ified type. Under most circumstances, you would use the same number for the external and internal port.
PPPoE /PPPoA Settings
You can use the following commands to configure basic settings, port authentication settings, and peer
authentication settings for PPP interfaces on your Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
Configuring Basic PPP Settings.
NOTE:
For the DSL platform you must identify the virtual PPP interface [vccn], a number from 1 to 8.
set ppp module [vccn] option { on | off }
Enables or disables PPP on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
set ppp module [vccn] auto-connect { on | off }
Supports manual mode required for some vendors. The default on is not normally changed. If auto-connect
is disabled (off), you must manually start/stop a ppp connection.
set ppp module [vccn] mru
integer
Specifies the Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) for the PPP interface. The
integer
argument can be any num-
ber between 128 and 1492 for PPPoE; 1500 otherwise.
Administrator’s Handbook
280
set ppp module [vccn] magic-number { on | off }
Enables or disables LCP magic number negotiation.
set ppp module [vccn] protocol-compression { on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to compress the PPP Protocol field when it
transmits datagrams over the PPP link.
set ppp module [vccn] lcp-echo-requests { on | off }
Specifies whether you want your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to send LCP echo requests. You should turn
off LCP echoing if you do not want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to drop a PPP link to a nonresponsive
peer.
set ppp module [vccn] echo-period
integer
Specifies the number of seconds the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should wait before sending another echo
from an LCP echo request. The integer argument can be any number from between 5 and 300 (seconds).
set ppp module [vccn] lost-echoes-max
integer
Specifies the maximum number of lost echoes the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should tolerate before
bringing down the PPP connection. The integer argument can be any number from between 1 and 20.
set ppp module [vccn] failures-max
integer
Specifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the PPP module can send without having sent
a Configure-ACK message. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20.
set ppp module [vccn] configure-max
integer
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration requests that your Motorola Netopia®
Gateway will send. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20.
set ppp module [vccn] terminate-max
integer
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination requests that your Motorola Netopia®
Gateway will send before terminating the PPP link. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and
10.
set ppp module [vccn] restart-timer
integer
Specifies the number of seconds the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should wait before retransmitting a con-
figuration or termination request. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 30.
281
set ppp module [vccn] connection-type
{ instant-on | always-on }
Specifies whether a PPP connection is maintained by the Motorola Netopia® Gateway when it is unused for
extended periods. If you specify always-on, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway never shuts down the PPP
link. If you specify instant-on, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway shuts down the PPP link after the number
of seconds specified in the time-out setting (below) if no traffic is moving over the circuit.
set ppp module [vccn] time-out
integer
If you specified a connection type of instant-on, specifies the number of seconds, in the range 30 -
3600, with a default value of 300, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should wait for communication activity
before terminating the PPP link.
Configuring Port Authentication. You can use the following command to specify how your Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway should respond when it receives an authentication request from a remote peer.
The settings for port authentication on the local Motorola Netopia® Gateway must match the authentica-
tion that is expected by the remote peer. For example, if the remote peer requires CHAP authentication and
has a name and CHAP secret for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway, you must enable CHAP and specify the
same name and secret on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway before the link can be established.
set ppp module [vccn] port-authentication
option [ off | on | pap-only | chap-only ]
Specifying on turns both PAP and CHAP on, or you can select PAP or CHAP. Specify the username and
password when port authentication is turned on (both CHAP and PAP, CHAP or PAP.) Authentication must
be enabled before you can enter other information.
set ppp module [vccn] port-authentication username
username
The username argument is 1 – 255 alphanumeric characters. The information you enter must match the
username configured in the PPP peer's authentication database.
set ppp module [vccn] port-authentication password
password
The password argument is 1 – 128 alphanumeric characters. The information you enter must match the
password used by the PPP peer.

PPPoE with IPoE Settings
Ethernet WAN platforms
set wan-over-ether pppoe [ on | off ]
Enables or disables PPPoE on the Ethernet WAN interface.
set wan-over-ether pppoe-with-ipoe [ on | off ]
Enables or disables the PPPoE with IPoE support on Ethernet WAN, including VDSL, platforms when pppoe
option is set to on.
When pppoe-with-ipoe is set to on, an additional interface, “ethernet C,” becomes available.
set wan-over-ether ipoe-sessions [ 1 - 4 ]
Sets the number of IPoE sessions, up to four, on Ethernet WAN, including VDSL, platforms.
NOTE:
Enabling pppoe-with-ipoe disables support for multiple PPPoE sessions.
Example:
set ip ethernet C option on
set ip ethernet C address 0.0.0.0

set ip ip-ppp enet-B mcast-fwd on
set ip ip-ppp enet-B unnumbered off
set ip ip-ppp enet-B rip-receive off
283
ADSL platforms
You must configure two VCCs with the same VPI/VCI to enable concurrent PPPoE and IPoE support, and you
will need to configure the individual settings for each interface for proper operation.
set atm vcc
n
encap pppoe-llc
Specifies that the VCC will allow a second VCC with the same VPI/VCI values as the first. pppoe-llc
denotes this special case.
Example:
set atm option on
set atm vcc 1 option on
set atm vcc 1 vpi 0
set atm vcc 1 vci 35
set atm vcc 1 encap pppoe-llc
set atm vcc 2 option on
set atm vcc 2 vpi 0
set atm vcc 2 vci 35
set atm vcc 2 encap ether-llc
This will allow you to configure the second WAN interface.
set atm vcc 2 vpi 0
set atm vcc 2 vci 35
set atm vcc 2 encap ether-llc
...
set ip ip-ppp vcc1 mcast-fwd [ on | off }
Enables or disables multi-cast forwarding on the specified interface. If set to on, this interface acts as an
IGMP proxy host, and IGMP packets are transmitted and received on this interface on behalf of IGMP hosts
on the LAN interface. See “IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)” on page 100 for more informa-
tion.
set ip ip-ppp vcc1 igmp-null-source-addr [ off | on ]
Enables or disables IGMP null source address, if mcast-fwd is set to on. If enabled, the source IP address
of every IGMP packet transmitted from this interface is set to 0.0.0.0. This complies with the requirements
of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly advertised IP address on the WAN interface.
Ethernet Port Settings
set ethernet ethernet A mode { auto | 100M-full | 100M-full-fixed |
100M-half-fixed | 10M-full-fixed | 10M-half-fixed |
100M-half | 10M-full | 10M-half }
Allows mode setting for the ethernet port. Only supported on units without a LAN switch, or dual ethernet
products (338x). In the dual ethernet case, “ethernet B” would be specified for the WAN port. The default is
auto.

network management functions that provide network fault indication, performance information, and diagno-
sis using special-purpose Ethernet OAM frames. These are exchanged between your Gateway and service
provider Access Node (AN) devices for network fault management, performance analysis and fault isolation.
All VDSL and Ethernet WAN Motorola Netopia Gateways support Ethernet OAM options.
More Ethernet Packet-Transfer-Mode (PTM) enabled xDSL Motorola Netopia Gateways will support 802.3ah
Ethernet OAM options in future releases.
802.3ah Ethernet OAM exchanges periodic Ethernet OAM heartbeat frames between the endpoints of the
physical link being monitored, and thus discovers and keeps-alive the Link connectivity and reports faults if
the link goes down. Supported OAM request and response types are: remote loopback enable, remote loop-
back disable, variable request, variable response.
set ethernet oam ah option [ off | on ]
Enables or disables Ethernet OAM. Default is off.
set ethernet oam ah pass-through [ off | on ]
Enable or disable Ethernet OAM pass-through mode. Default is off.
Warning: This is a DEBUG feature. Leave it off unless you know exactly what you are doing.
set ethernet oam ah mode [ active | passive ]
Specifies the Ethernet OAM mode. Default is active.
set ethernet oam ah pdu-size-max [ 64 - 1518 ]
Specifies the Maximum Protocol Data Unit (PDU) size. Default is 1518.
set ethernet oam ah discovery-timer [ 1 - 300 ]
Specifies the discovery timer value for continuity check in seconds. Range is 1 – 300 seconds. Default is 1.
set ethernet oam ah keepalive-timer [ 5 - 305 ]
Specifies the keep-alive timer value in seconds. Range is 5 – 305 seconds. Default is 5.
etheroam ah ping
Sends OAM remote loopback request in active mode.

Command Line Interface Preference Settings
You can set command line interface preferences to customize your environment.
set preference verbose { on | off }
Specifies whether you want command help and prompting information displayed. By default, the command
line interface verbose preference is turned off. If you turn it on, the command line interface displays help
for a node when you navigate to that node.
set preference more
lines
Specifies how many lines of information you want the command line interface to display at one time. The
lines argument specifies the number of lines you want to see at one time. The range is 1-65535. By
default, the command line interface shows you 22 lines of text before displaying the prompt: More
…[y|n] ?.
If you enter 1000 for the
lines
argument, the command line interface displays information as an uninter-
rupted stream (which is useful for capturing information to a text file).

Port Renumbering Settings
If you use NAT pinholes to forward HTTP or telnet traffic through your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to an
internal host, you must change the port numbers the Motorola Netopia® Gateway uses for its own configu-
ration traffic. For example, if you set up a NAT pinhole to forward network traffic on Port 80 (HTTP) to
another host, you would have to tell the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to listen for configuration connection
requests on a port number other than 80, such as 6080.
After you have changed the port numbers the Motorola Netopia® Gateway uses for its configuration traffic,
you must use those port numbers instead of the standard numbers when configuring the Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway. For example, if you move the router's Web service to port “6080” on a box with a system
(DNS) name of “superbox”, you would enter the URL http://superbox:6080 in a Web browser to open the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway graphical user interface. Similarly, you would have to configure your telnet
application to use the appropriate port when opening a configuration connection to your Motorola Netopia®
Gateway.
set servers web-http [ 1 - 65534 ]
Specifies the port number for HTTP (web) communication with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Because
port numbers in the range 0-1024 are used by other protocols, you should use numbers in the range 1025-
65534 when assigning new port numbers to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway web configuration interface. A
setting of 0 (zero) will turn the server off.
set servers telnet-tcp [ 1 - 65534 ]
Specifies the port number for telnet (CLI) communication with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Because
port numbers in the range 0-1024 are used by other protocols, you should use numbers in the range 1025-
65534 when assigning new port numbers to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway telnet configuration interface.
A setting of 0 (zero) will turn the server off.
NOTE:
You cannot specify a port setting of 0 (zero) for both the web and telnet ports at the same
time. This would prevent you from accessing the Gateway.
287
Security Settings
Security settings include the Firewall, Packet Filtering, Stateful Inspection, and IPSec parameters. Some of
the security functionality is keyed.
Firewall Settings (for BreakWater Firewall)
set security firewall option [ ClearSailing | SilentRunning |
LANdLocked ]
The 3 settings for BreakWater are discussed in detail on page page 142.
SafeHarbour IPSec Settings
SafeHarbour VPN is a tunnel between the local network and another geographically dispersed network that
is interconnected over the Internet. This VPN tunnel provides a secure, cost-effective alternative to dedi-
cated leased lines. Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a series of services including encryption, authenti-
cation, integrity, and replay protection. Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is the key management protocol of
IPsec that establishes keys for encryption and decryption. Because this VPN software implementation is
built to these standards, the other side of the tunnel can be either another Motorola Netopia® unit or
another IPsec/IKE based security product. For VPN you can choose to have traffic authenticated,
encrypted, or both.
When connecting the Motorola Netopia® unit in a telecommuting scenario, the corporate VPN settings will
dictate the settings to be used in the Motorola Netopia® unit. If a parameter has not been specified from
the other end of the tunnel, choose the default unless you fully understand the ramifications of your param-
eter choice.
set security ipsec option (off) {on | off}
Turns on the SafeHarbour IPsec tunnel capability. Default is off. See “IPSec” on page 146 for more informa-
tion.
set security ipsec tunnels name "123"

Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Settings
The following four IPsec parameters configure the rekeying event.
set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode
ipsec-soft-mbytes (1000) {1-1000000}
set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode
ipsec-soft-seconds (82800) {60-1000000}
set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode
ipsec-hard-mbytes (1200) {1-1000000}
set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode
ipsec-hard-seconds (86400) {60-1000000}
The soft parameters designate when the system begins to negotiate a new key. For example, after
82800 seconds (23 hours) or 1 Gbyte has been transferred (whichever comes first) the key will begin to
be renegotiated.
The hard parameters indicate that the renegotiation must be complete or the tunnel will be disabled. For
example, 86400 seconds (24 hours) means that the renegotiation must be complete within one day.
Both ends of the tunnel set parameters, and typically they will be the same. If they are not the same, the
rekey event will happen when the longest time period expires or when the largest amount of data has been
sent.

SNMP Settings
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets a network administrator monitor problems on a net-
work by retrieving settings on remote network devices. The network administrator typically runs an SNMP
management station program on a local host to obtain information from an SNMP agent such as the Motor-
ola Netopia® Gateway.
set snmp community read
name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. By
default, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway is associated with the public community.
set snmp community write
name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
set snmp community trap
name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
set snmp trap ip-traps
ip-address
Identifies the destination for SNMP trap messages. The
ip-address
argument is the IP address of the
host acting as an SNMP console.
set snmp sysgroup contact
contact_info
Identifies the system contact, such as the name, phone number, beeper number, or email address of the
person responsible for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. You can enter up to 255 characters for the
contact_info
argument. You must put the
contact_info
argument in double-quotes if it contains
embedded spaces.
set snmp sysgroup location
location_info
Identifies the location, such as the building, floor, or room number, of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. You
can enter up to 255 characters for the
location_info
argument. You must put the
location_info
argument in double-quotes if it contains embedded spaces.
SNMP Notify Type Settings
set snmp notify type [ v1-trap | v2-trap | inform ]
Sets the type of SNMP notifications that the system will generate:
v1-trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv1 Trap Protocol Data Unit (PDU)
v2-trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv2 Trap PDU
inform – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv2 InformRequest PDU.
Administrator’s Handbook
298
System Settings
You can configure system settings to assign a name to your Motorola Netopia® Gateway and to specify
what types of messages you want the diagnostic log to record.
set system name
name
Specifies the name of your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Each Motorola Netopia® Gateway is assigned a
name as part of its factory initialization. The default name for a Motorola Netopia® Gateway consists of the
word “Netopia-3000/XXX” where “XXX” is the serial number of the device; for example, Netopia-3000/
9437188. A system name can be 1 – 255 characters long. Once you have assigned a name to your Motor-
ola Netopia® Gateway, you can enter that name in the Address text field of your browser to open a connec-
tion to your Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
NOTE:
Some broadband cable-oriented Service Providers use the System Name as an important
identification and support parameter. If your Gateway is part of this type of network, do NOT
alter the System Name unless specifically instructed by your Service Provider.
set system diagnostic-level
{ off | low | medium | high | alerts | failures }
Specifies the types of log messages you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to record. All messages with
a level equal to or greater than the level you specify are recorded. For example, if you specify set system
diagnostic-level medium, the diagnostic log will retain medium-level informational messages, alerts, and
failure messages. Specifying off turns off logging.
Use the following guidelines:
low - Low-level informational messages or greater; includes trivial status messages.
medium - Medium-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that can help
monitor network traffic.
high - High-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that may be significant
but do not constitute errors. The default.
alerts - Warnings or greater; includes recoverable error conditions and useful operator information.
failures - Failures; includes messages describing error conditions that may not be recoverable.
299
set system ftp-server option [ off | on ]
Enables or disables a simple FTP server in the Gateway. If enabled, the Gateway will accept binary embed-
ded software images (‘.bin’) files or command line configuration files.
set system log-size [ 10240... 65536 ]
Specifies a size for the system log. The most recent entries are posted to the beginning of the log. When
the log becomes full, the oldest entries are dropped. The default is 30000.
set system persistent-log [ off | on ]
When set to on, causes the log information to be kept in flash memory.
set system idle-timeout { telnet [ 1...120 ] | http [ 1... 120 ] }
Specifies a timeout period of inactivity for telnet or HTTP access to the Gateway, after which a user must re-
login to the Gateway. Defaults are 5 minutes for HTTP and 15 minutes for telnet.
set system username { administrator
name
| user
name
}
Specifies the usernames for the administrative user – the default is admin; and a non-administrative user
– the default is user.
set system password { admin | user }
Specifies the administrator or user password for a Motorola Netopia® Gateway. When you enter the set
system password command, you are prompted to enter the old password (if any) and new password.
You are prompted to repeat the new password to verify that you entered it correctly the first time. To prevent
anyone from observing the password you enter, characters in the old and new passwords are not displayed
as you type them. For security, you cannot use the “step” method to set the system password.
A password can be as many as 8 characters. Passwords are case-sensitive.
Passwords go into effect immediately. You do not have to restart the Motorola Netopia® Gateway for the
password to take effect. Assigning an administrator or user password to a Motorola Netopia® Gateway
does not affect communications through the device.
Supported FTP commands
MODE (data transfer mode (only Streaming supported)
NOOP (send back ok)
PORT (specify client address:port for data)
QUIT (quit)
STOR (send file to FTP server)
SYST (get system info about FTP server)
TYPE (set data representation type, ASCII and IMAGE (BIN) only supported)
USER (send username for authentication)

set system heartbeat option { on | off }
protocol [ udp | tcp ]
port-client [ 1 - 65535 ]
ip-server [
ip_address
|
dns_name
]
port-server [ 1 - 65535 ]
url-server ("

number [ 1 – 1073741823 ]
interval (00:00:00:20)
sleep (00:00:30:00)
contact-email ("
string
@
domain_name
")
location ("
string
"):
The heartbeat setting is used in conjunction with the configuration server to broadcast contact and location
information about your Gateway. You can specify the protocol, port, IP-, port-, and URL-server.
The interval setting specifies the broadcast update frequency. Part of sequence control. The interval is
the spacing between heartbeats, in d:h:m:s.
The contact-email setting is a quote-enclosed text string giving an email address for the Gateway’s
administrator.
The location setting is a text string allowing you to specify your geographical or other location, such as
“Secaucus, NJ.”
The number setting is part of the sequence control. This is the number of heartbeats to send, at each
“interval”, before sleeping. For example, if this is 20, in the above layout, each heartbeat sequence will
send out a total 20 heartbeats, spaced at 30 second intervals, and then sleep for 30 minutes. So to
have the Gateway send out packets “forever”, this number can be set very high. If it is 1440 and the
interval is 1 minute, say, the heartbeat will go out every minute for 1440 minutes, or one day, before
sleeping.
The sleep setting is part of sequence control. This is the time to sleep before starting another heart-
beat sequence, in d:h:m:s.
set system ntp
option [ off | on ]:
server-address (north-america.pool.ntp.org)
alt-server-address (pool.ntp.org):
time-zone [ -12 - 12 ]
update-period (60) [ 1 - 65535 ]:
daylight-savings [ off | on ]
Specifies the NTP server address, time zone, and how often the Gateway should check the time from the
NTP server. The NTP server-address and alt-server-address can be entered as DNS names as well as IP
addresses. NTP time-zone of 0 is GMT time; options are -12 through 12 (+/- 1 hour increments from GMT
time). update-period specifies how often, in minutes, the Gateway should update the clock. daylight-sav-
ings specifies whether daylight savings time is in effect; it defaults to off.
set system zerotouch option [ on | off ]
Enables or disables the Zero Touch option.
301
Zero Touch refers to automatic configuration of your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. The Motorola Netopia®
Gateway has default settings such that initial connection to the Internet will succeed. If the zerotouch
option is set to on, HTTP requests to any destination IP address except the IP address(es) of the configured

Wireless Settings (supported models)
set wireless option ( on | off )
Administratively enables or disables the wireless interface.
set wireless network-id ssid {
network_name
}
Specifies the wireless network id for the Gateway. A unique ssid is generated for each Gateway. You must
set your wireless clients to connect to this exact id, which can be changed to any 32-character string.
set wireless auto-channel mode { off | at-startup | continuous }
Specifies the wireless AutoChannel Setting for 802.11G models. AutoChannel is a feature that allows the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway to determine the best channel to broadcast automatically. For details, see
“Advanced” on page 56.
set wireless default-channel { 1...14 }
Specifies the wireless 2.4GHz sub channel on which the wireless Gateway will operate. For US operation,
this is limited to channels 1–11. Other countries vary; for example, Japan is channel 14 only. The default
channel in the US is 6. Channel selection can have a significant impact on performance, depending on
other wireless activity in proximity to this AP. Channel selection is not necessary at the clients; clients will
scan the available channels and look for APs using the same ssid as the client.
set wireless network-id closed-system { on | off }
When this setting is enabled, a client must know the ssid in order to connect or even see the wireless
access point. When disabled, a client may scan for available wireless access points and will see this one.
Enable this setting for greater security. The default is on.
set wireless mode { both-b-and-g | b-only | g-only }
Specifies the wireless operating mode for connecting wireless clients: both-b-and-g, b-only, or g-only,
and locks the Gateway in that mode.
NOTE:
If you choose to limit the operating mode to B or G only, clients using the mode you excluded
will not be able to connect.
set wireless multi-ssid option { on | off }
Enables or disables the multi-ssid feature which allows you to add additional network identifiers (SSIDs or
Network Names) for your wireless network. When enabled, you can specify up to three additional SSIDs with
separate privacy settings for each. See below.
Administrator’s Handbook
304
set wireless multi-ssid {second-ssid | third-ssid | fourth-ssid }
name
Specifies a descriptive name for each SSID. when multi-ssid option is set to on.
set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |
WPA-802.1x }
set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |
WPA-802.1x }
set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |
WPA-802.1x }
Specifies the type of privacy enabled on multiple SSIDs when multi-ssid option is set to on. off = no pri-
vacy; WEP = WEP encryption; WPA-PSK = Wireless Protected Access/Pre-Shared Key; WPA-802.1x = Wire-
less Protected Access/802.1x authentication. See “Wireless Privacy Settings” on page 308 for more
information.
NOTE:
WEP is supported on only one SSID at a time, and will not be available if another SSID already
has it configured.
set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |
WPA2-only }
set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |
WPA2-only }
set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |
WPA2-only }
Specifies the type of WPA version enabled on multiple SSIDs when multi-ssid option is set to on and pri-
vacy is set tp WPA-PSK. See “Wireless Privacy Settings” on page 308 for more information.
set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-psk {
string
}
set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-psk {
string
}
set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-psk {
string
}
Specifies a WPA passphrase for the multiple SSIDs, when second-, third-, or fourth-ssid-privacy is set to
WPA-PSK. The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the Gateway and the clients and is used
to generate dynamically changing keys. The passphrase can be 8 – 63 characters. It is recommended to
use at least 20 characters for best security.
set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]
set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]
set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]
Specifies the WEP key length for the multiple SSIDs, when second-, third-, or fourth-ssid-privacy is set
to WEP. 40bit encryption is equivalent to 64bit encryption. The longer the key, the stronger the encryption
and the more difficult it is to break the encryption.
305
set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-wepkey {
hexadecimal digits
}
set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-wepkey {
hexadecimal digits
}
set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-wepkey {
hexadecimal digits
}
Specifies a WEP key for the multiple SSIDs, when second-, third-, or fourth-ssid-privacy is set to WEP.
For 40/64bit encryption, you need 10 digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexa-
decimal characters are 0 – 9, a – f.
set wireless no-bridging [ off | on ]
When set to on, this will block wireless clients from communicating with other wireless clients on the LAN
side of the Gateway.
set wireless tx-power [ full | medium | fair | low | minimal ]
Sets the wireless transmit power, scaling down the router's wireless transmit coverage by lowering its radio
power output. Default is full power. Transmit power settings are useful in large venues with multiple wire-
less routers where you want to reuse channels. Since there are only three non-overlapping channels in the
802.11 spectrum, it helps to size the Gateway’s cell to match the location. This allows you to install a
router to cover a small “hole” without conflicting with other routers nearby.

Wireless Multi-media (WMM) Settings
Router EDCA Parameters (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) govern wireless data from your Gate-
way to the client; Client EDCA Parameters govern wireless data from the client to your Gateway.
set wireless wmm option [ off | on ]
Enables or disables wireless multi-media settings option, which allows you to fine tune WiFi Multimedia
Quality of Service (QoS) by transmitting data depending on Diffserv priority settings. These priorities are
mapped into four Access Categories (AC), in increasing order of priority: Background (BK), Best Effort (BE),
Video (VI), and Voice (VO). It requires WiFi Multimedia-capable clients, usually a separate feature enabled at
the client.
aifs: (Arbitration Interframe Spacing) the wait time in milliseconds for data frames.

Wireless Privacy Settings
set wireless network-id privacy option { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |
WPA-802.1x }
Specifies the type of privacy enabled on the wireless LAN. off = no privacy; WEP = WEP encryption; WPA-
PSK = Wireless Protected Access/Pre-Shared Key; WPA-802.1x = Wireless Protected Access/802.1x
authentication. See “Wireless” on page 53 for a discussion of these options.
WPA provides Wireless Protected Access, the most secure option for your wireless network. This mecha-
nism provides the best data protection and access control. PSK requires a Pre-Shared Key; 802.1x
requires a RADIUS server for authentication.
WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a method of encrypting data between the wireless Gateway and its clients.
It is strongly recommended to turn this on as it is the primary way to protect your network and data from
intruders. Note that 40bit is the same as 64bit and will work with either type of wireless client. The default
is off.
A single key is selected (see default-key) for encryption of outbound/transmitted packets. The WEP-
enabled client must have the identical key, of the same length, in the identical slot (1..4) as the wireless
Gateway, in order to successfully receive and decrypt the packet. Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’
key that it uses to encrypt its transmissions. In order for the wireless Gateway to receive the client’s data,
it must likewise have the identical key, of the same length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a wireless Gate-
way and its clients need only enter, share, and use the first key.
set wireless network-id privacy pre-shared-key
string
The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the Router and the clients and is used to generate
dynamically changing keys, when WPA-PSK is selected or enabled. The passphrase can be 8 – 63 charac-
ters. It is recommended to use at least 20 characters for best security.
set wireless network-id privacy default-keyid { 1...4 }
Specifies which WEP encryption key (of 4) the wireless Gateway will use to transmit data. The client must
have an identical matching key, in the same numeric slot, in order to successfully decode. Note that a client
allows you to choose which of its keys it will use to transmit. Therefore, you must have an identical key in
the same numeric slot on the Gateway.
For simplicity, it is easiest to have both the Gateway and the client transmit with the same key. The default
is 1.
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key1-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key2-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key3-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key4-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
Selects the length of each encryption key. 40bit encryption is equivalent to 64bit encryption. The longer
the key, the stronger the encryption and the more difficult it is to break the encryption.
309
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key1 {
hexadecimal digits
}
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key2 {
hexadecimal digits
}
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key3 {
hexadecimal digits
}
set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key4 {
hexadecimal digits
}
The encryption keys. Enter keys using hexadecimal digits. For 40/64bit encryption, you need 10 digits; 26
digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexadecimal characters are 0 – 9, a – f.
Example 40bit key: 02468ACE02.
Example 128bit key: 0123456789ABCDEF0123456789.
Example 256bit key: 592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F21A09C.
You must set at least one of these keys, indicated by the default-keyid.
Wireless MAC Address Authorization Settings
set wireless mac-auth option { on | off }
Enabling this feature limits the MAC addresses that are allowed to access the LAN as well as the WAN to
specified MAC (hardware) addresses.
set wireless mac-auth wrlss-MAC-list mac-address
MAC-address_string
Enters a new MAC address into the MAC address authorization table. The format for an Ethernet MAC
address is six hexadecimal values between 00 and FF inclusive separated by colons or dashes (e.g.,
00:00:C5:70:00:04).
set wireless mac-auth wrlss-MAC-list mac-address
MAC-address_string
allow-access { on | off }
Designates whether the MAC address is enabled or not for wireless network access. Disabled MAC
addresses cannot be used for access until enabled.

inter-vlan-routing [ group-1... group-8 ] [ off | on ]
When set to on, inter-vlan-routing allows VLANs in the specified group to route traffic to the others;
ungrouped VLANs cannot route traffic to each other.
You must save the changes, exit out of configuration mode, and restart the Gateway for the changes to take
effect.
Example 1:
A simple example using the “Step” method – Navigate to the VLAN item:

VoIP settings
(supported models only)
Voice-over-IP (VoIP) refers to the ability to make voice telephone calls over the Internet. This differs from tra-
ditional phone calls that use the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). VoIP calls use an Internet pro-
tocol, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), to transmit sound over a network or the Internet in the form of data
packets. Certain Motorola Netopia® Gateway models have two separate voice ports for connecting tele-
phone handsets. These models support VoIP. If your Gateway is a VoIP model, you can configure the VoIP
features.

UPnP settings
set upnp option [ on | off ]
PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway’s WAN IP address, and automatically create NAT port maps. This
means that applications that support UPnP, and are used with a UPnP-enabled Motorola Netopia® Gateway,
will not need application layer gateway support on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to work through NAT.
The default is on.
You can disable UPnP, if you are not using any UPnP devices or applications.
set upnp log [ off | on ]
Enables or disables UPnP logging.
set upnp read-only [ off | on ]
Enables or disables
DSL Forum settings
TR-064 is a LAN-side DSL CPE configuration specification and TR-069 is a WAN-side DSL CPE Management
specification.
TR-064
DSL Forum LAN Side CPE Configuration (TR-064) is an extension of UPnP. It defines more services to locally
manage the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. While UPnP allows open access to configure the Gateway's fea-
tures, TR-064 requires a password to execute any command that changes the Gateway's configuration.
set dslf-lanmgmt option [ off | on ]
Turns TR-064 LAN side management services on or off. The default is on.
Administrator’s Handbook
322
TR-069
DSL Forum CPE WAN Management Protocol (TR-069) provides services similar to UPnP and TR-064. The
communication between the Motorola Netopia® Gateway and management agent in UPnP and TR-064 is
strictly over the LAN, whereas the communication in TR-069 is over the WAN link for some features and over
the LAN for others. TR-069 allows a remote Auto-Config Server (ACS) to provision and manage the Motorola
Netopia® Gateway. TR-069 protects sensitive data on the Gateway by not advertising its presence, and by
password protection.
set dslf-cpewan option [ off | on ]
set dslf-cpewan acs-url "
acs_url:port_number
"
set dslf-cpewan acs-user-name
acs_username
set dslf-cpewan acs-user-password
acs_password
Turns TR-069 WAN side management services on or off. For 3300-Series Gateways, the default is off; for
2200-Series Gateways, the default is on. If TR-069 WAN side management services are enabled, specifies
the auto-config server URL and port number. A username and password must also be supplied, if TR-069 is
enabled.
The auto-config server is specified by URL and port number. The format for the ACS URL is as follows:
http://
some_url.com
:
port_number
or
http://
123.45.678.910
:
port_number
On units that support SSL, the format for the ACS URL can also be:
https://
some_url.com
:
port_number
or
https://
123.45.678.910
:
port_number

Backup IP Gateway Settings
The purpose of Backup is to provide a recovery mechanism in the event that the primary connection fails.
Should the primary WAN connection fail, traffic would be automatically redirected through your alternate
gateway device to maintain Internet connectivity. See “Backup” on page 133 for more information.
set backup option [ disabled | manual | automatic ]
Specifies whether backup to an IP gateway is disabled or enabled as manual or automatic. Default is dis-
abled.
set backup failure-timeout [ 1 - 10 ]
Specifies the number of minutes you want the system to wait before the backup port becomes enabled in
the event of primary line failure, when backup option is set to automatic. Sets the Default is 1.
set backup ping-host [ 1 | 2 ] [ name | address ]
Specifies whether the Gateway will ping an IP address or resolvable DNS name, when backup option is set
to automatic. These are optional items that are particularly useful for testing if the remote end of a VPN
connection has gone down.
The Gateway will ping both addresses simultaneously at five-second intervals, recording the ping responses
from each host. The Gateway will proceed into backup mode only if neither of the configured remote hosts
responds.
set backup ping-host [ 1 | 2 ] [ name
hostname
| ip-address
ip_address
]
Specifies an IP address or resolvable DNS name for the Gateway to ping.
set backup auto-recovery [ off | on ]
Turns automatic recovery off or on. Default is off.
set backup recovery-timeout [ 1 - 10 ]
If auto-recovery is set to on, specifies the number of minutes for the system to wait before attempting to
switch back to the WAN connection. This allows you to be sure that the WAN connection is well re-estab-
lished before the gateway switches back to it from the backup mode. Default is 1.
set ip backup-gateway option [ on | off ]
Turns the backup gateway option on or off. Default is off.
set ip backup-gateway interface ip-address
Specifies the backup gateway interface ip address to which you want to direct the backup connection.
Administrator’s Handbook
324
set ip backup-gateway default
ip_address
Specifies the ip address of the default gateway.

tions (SAs) at the configured Hard MByte value.
The value can be configured between 1 and 1,000,000 MB and refers to data traffic passed.
Hard Seconds. Setting the Hard Seconds parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec Security Associ-
ations (SAs) at the configured Hard Seconds value. The value can be configured between 60 and
1,000,000 seconds.
A tunnel will start the process of renegotiation at the soft threshold and renegotiation must happen by the

-----I-----
IGMP. Internet Group Management Protocol allows a router to determine which host groups have members
on a given network segment.
IKE. Internet Key Exchange protocol provides automated key management and is a preferred alternative to
manual key management as it provides better security. Manual key management is practical in a small,
static environment of two or three sites. Exchanging the key is done through manual means. Because IKE
provides automated key exchange, it is good for larger, more dynamic environments.
INSPECTION. The best option for Internet communications security is to have an SMLI firewall constantly
inspecting the flow of traffic: determining direction, limiting or eliminating inbound access, and verifying
down to the packet level that the network traffic is only what the customer chooses. The Netopia Gateway
works like a network super traffic cop, inspecting and filtering out undesired traffic based on your security
policy and resulting configuration.
interface. A connection between two devices or networks.
internet address. IP address. A 32-bit address used to route packets on a TCP/IP network. In dotted deci-
mal notation, each eight bits of the 32-bit number are presented as a decimal number, with the four octets
separated by periods.

tion specific parameters. It is a protocol for establishing, negotiating, modifying, and deleting SAs and pro-
vides a framework for authentication and key exchange. ISAKMP is a part of the IKE protocol.

back to its input channel so that what was sent can be compared to what was received.
337
-----M-----
magic number. Random number generated by a router and included in packets it sends to other routers. If
the router receives a packet with the same magic number it is using, the router sends and receives packets
with new random numbers to determine if it is talking to itself.
MD5. A 128-bit, message-digest, authentication algorithm used to create digital signatures. It computes a
secure, irreversible, cryptographically strong hash value for a document. Less secure than variant SHA-1.
metric. Distance, measured in the number of routers a packet must traverse, that a packet must travel to
go from a router to a remote network. A route with a low metric is considered more efficient, and therefore
preferable, to a route with a high metric. See hop count.
modem. Modulator/demodulator. Device used to convert a digital signal to an analog signal for transmis-
sion over standard telephone lines. A modem at the other end of the connection converts the analog signal
back to a digital signal.
MRU. Maximum Receive Unit. The maximum packet size, in bytes, that a network interface will accept.
MSSID. Multiple Service Set IDentifier. Unique identifiers of data sent over a wireless connection that act
as passwords when wireless devices try to join wireless networks. An SSID differentiates one wireless net-
work from another, so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific network must
use the same SSID. Netopia Gateways support up to four SSIDs.
SSIDs are also sometimes referred to as Network Names because they are names that identify wireless
networks.
MTU. Maximum Transmission Unit. The maximum packet size, in bytes, that can be sent over a network
interface.
MULTI-LAYER. The Open System Interconnection (OSI) model divides network traffic into seven distinct
levels, from the Physical (hardware) layer to the Application (software) layer. Those in between are the Pre-
sentation, Session, Transport, Network, and Data Link layers. Simple first and second generation firewall
technologies inspect between 1 and 3 layers of the 7 layer model, while our SMLI engine inspects layers 2
through 7.
-----N-----
NAK. Negative acknowledgment. See ACK.
NCP. Network Control Protocol.

of the remote gateway or VPN Server you are communicating with.
Peer Internal IP Netmask. The Peer Internal IP Netmask is the subnet mask of the Peer Internal IP Net-
work.
PFS Enable. Enable Perfect Forward Secrecy. PFS forces a DH negotiation during Phase II of IKE-IPSec SA
exchange. You can disable this or select a DH group 1, 2, or 5. PFS is a security principle that ensures that
any single key being compromised will permit access to only data protected by that single key. In PFS, the
key used to protect transmission of data must not be used to derive any additional keys. If the key was
derived from some other keying material, that material must not be used to derive any more keys.
PING. Packet INternet Groper. Utility program that uses an ICMP echo message and its reply to verify that
one network node can reach another. Often used to verify that two hosts can communicate over a network.
PPP. Point-to-Point Protocol. Provides a method for transmitting datagrams over serial router-to-router or
host-to-network connections using synchronous or asynchronous circuits.

Pre-Shared Key Type. The Pre-Shared Key Type classifies the Pre-Shared Key. SafeHarbour supports
ASCII
or
HEX
types

sure that prioritized data packets, such as streaming video or Voice-over-IP, are forwarded with the least
possible delay. All other traffic is handled when the highest priority queue is empty.
protocol. Formal set of rules and conventions that specify how information can be exchanged over a net-
work.
PSTN. Public Switched Telephone Network.
-----Q-----
QoS. Quality of Service. The ability of a network to prioritize certain kinds of network traffic to provide
reserved bandwidth and reduced latency needed by some real-time and interactive traffic such as voice and
video over IP. QoS also provides priority for one or more flows, such that one flow does not make other flows
fail.
339
-----R-----
repeater. Device that regenerates and propagates electrical signals between two network segments. Also
known as a hub.
RFC. Request for Comment. Set of documents that specify the conventions and standards for TCP/IP net-
working.
RIP. Routing Information Protocol. Protocol responsible for distributing information about available routes
and networks from one router to another.
RJ-11. Four-pin connector used for telephones.
RJ-45. Eight-pin connector used for 10BaseT (twisted pair Ethernet) networks.
route. Path through a network from one node to another. A large internetwork can have several alternate
routes from a source to a destination.
routing table. Table stored in a router or other networking device that records available routes and dis-
tances for remote network destinations.
-----S-----
SA Encrypt Type. SA Encryption Type refers to the symmetric encryption type. This encryption algorithm
will be used to encrypt each data packet. SA Encryption Type values supported include
DES
and
3DES
.
SA Hash Type. SA Hash Type refers to the Authentication Hash algorithm used during SA negotiation. Val-
ues supported include
MD5 SHA1
. N/A will display if NONE is chose for Auth Protocol.
Security Association. From the IPSEC point of view, an SA is a data structure that describes which trans-
formation is to be applied to a datagram and how. The SA specifies:
The authentication algorithm for AH and ESP
The encryption algorithm for ESP
The encryption and authentication keys
Lifetime of encryption keys
The lifetime of the SA
Replay prevention sequence number and the replay bit table
An arbitrary 32-bit number called a Security Parameters Index (SPI), as well as the destination host’s
address and the IPSEC protocol identifier, identify each SA. An SPI is assigned to an SA when the SA is
negotiated. The SA can be referred to by using an SPI in AH and ESP transformations. SA is unidirectional.
SAs are commonly setup as bundles, because typically two SAs are required for communications. SA man-
agement is always done on bundles (setup, delete, relay).
serial communication. Method of data transmission in which data bits are transmitted sequentially over a
communication channel
SHA-1. An implementation of the U.S. Government Secure Hash Algorithm; a 160-bit authentication algo-
rithm.
Administrator’s Handbook
340
Soft MBytes. Setting the Soft MBytes parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec Security Associa-
tions (SAs) at the configured Soft MByte value. The value can be configured between
1 and 1,000,000 MB
and refers to data traffic passed. If this value is not achieved, the Hard MBytes parameter is enforced.
Soft Seconds. Setting the Soft Seconds parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec Security Associa-
tions (SAs) at the configured Soft Seconds value. The value can be configured between 60 and 1,000,000
seconds.
SPI . The Security Parameter Index is an identifier for the encryption and authentication algorithm and key.
The SPI indicates to the remote firewall the algorithm and key being used to encrypt and authenticate a
packet. It should be a unique number greater than 255.
SSL. Secure Sockets Layer. A protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the
Internet. SSL uses a cryptographic system that uses two keys to encrypt data: a public key known to every-
one and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message.
STATEFUL. The Netopia Gateway monitors and maintains the state of any network transaction. In terms of
network request-and-reply, state consists of the source IP address, destination IP address, communication
ports, and data sequence. The Netopia Gateway processes the stream of a network conversation, rather
than just individual packets. It verifies that packets are sent from and received by the proper IP addresses
along the proper communication ports in the correct order and that no imposter packets interrupt the
packet flow. Packet filtering monitors only the ports involved, while the Netopia Gateway analyzes the con-
tinuous conversation stream, preventing session hijacking and denial of service attacks.
static route. Route entered manually in a routing table.
subnet mask. A 32-bit address mask that identifies which bits of an IP address represent network address
information and which bits represent node identifier information.
synchronous communication. Method of data communication requiring the transmission of timing sig-
nals to keep peers synchronized in sending and receiving blocks of data.
-----T-----
telnet. IP protocol that lets a user on one host establish and use a virtual terminal connection to a remote
host.
TR-064. TR-064 is a LAN-side DSL Gateway configuration specification; an extension of UPnP. It defines
more services to locally manage a Gateway.
TR-069. TR-069 is a WAN-side DSL Gateway Management specification; provides services similar to UPnP
and TR-064. The communication between a Gateway and management agent in UPnP and TR-064 is strictly
over the LAN, whereas the communication in TR-069 is over the WAN link for some features and over the
LAN for others. TR-069 allows a remote Auto-Config Server to provision and manage a Gateway.
TR-101. Standard for a network architecture where the aggregation network is Ethernet-based while the
DSL access network is still ATM-over-DSL-based. This facilitates multiplay service delivery over a range of
scaleable broadband access technologies. Ratified by the DSL Forum in late April 2006, TR-101 enables
service providers to evolve their DSL access networks to better support faster access rates and to intro-
duce new multiplay services across IP-based broadband networks, all through a single gateway. These stan-
dards are particularly important for widespread delivery of Internet Protocol Television (IPTV). TR-101
outlines the specific features necessary for IP-based network equipment to deliver multiple services with
341
the same levels of Quality of Service, authentication, and service segmentation previously provided by tra-
ditional DSL networks.
twisted pair. Cable consisting of two copper strands twisted around each other. The twisting provides pro-
tection against electromagnetic interference.

VDSL. Very high rate Digital Subscriber Line. VDSL transmits high speed data over short reaches of
twisted-pair copper telephone lines, with a range of speeds depending upon actual line length. Both data
channels will be separated in frequency from bands used for POTS and ISDN, enabling service providers to
overlay VDSL on existing services. At present the two high speed channels will also be separated in fre-
quency.
VLAN. Virtual Local Area Network. A network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the
same wire even though they may be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are config-
ured in software rather than hardware.
VoIP. Voice-over-IP (VoIP) refers to the ability to make voice telephone calls over the Internet. This differs
from traditional phone calls that use the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). VoIP calls use an Inter-
net protocol, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), to transmit sound over a network or the Internet in the form
of data packets.
-----W-----
WAN. Wide Area Network. Private network facilities, usually offered by public telephone companies but
increasingly available from alternative access providers (sometimes called Competitive Access Providers,
or CAPs), that link business network nodes.
WFQ. Weighted Fair Queueing. A packet scheduling technique allowing guaranteed bandwidth services in
order to let multiple sessions share the same link. It regulates the flow of data in networks by sorting pack-
ets to minimize latency. WFQ passes along narrowband signals first, and buffers broadband signals.
WMM. WiFi MultiMedia. WiFi Multimedia allows you to prioritize various types of data travelling over the
wireless network. Certain types of data that are sensitive to delays, such as voice or video, must be priori-
tized ahead of other, less delay-sensitive types, such as email. It currently implements wireless Quality of
Service (QoS) by transmitting data depending on Diffserv priority settings.
WWW. World Wide Web.
-----X-----
XAuth. Extended Authentication. An extension to the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol, for IPSec tunnel-
ling. Requires SafeHarbour IPsec tunneling feature key.

CHAPTER 9 Overview of Major Capabilities
The Motorola Netopia® Gateway offers simplified setup and management features as well as advanced
broadband router capabilities. The following are some of the main features of the Motorola Netopia® Gate-
way:
“Wide Area Network Termination” on page 351
The Gateway combines an ADSL modem with an Internet router. It translates protocols used on the Inter-
net to protocols used by home personal computers and eliminates the need for special desktop soft-
ware (i.e. PPPoE).
“Simplified Local Area Network Setup” on page 352
Built-in DHCP and DNS proxy features minimize or eliminate the need to program any network configura-
tion into your home personal computer.
“Management” on page 353
A Web server built into the Motorola Netopia® Operating System makes setup and maintenance easy
using standard browsers. Diagnostic tools facilitate troubleshooting.
“Security” on page 354
Network Address Translation (NAT), password protection, Stateful Inspection firewall and other built-in
security features prevent unauthorized remote access to your network. Pinholes, default server, and
other features permit access to computers on your home network that you can specify.
Wide Area Network Termination
PPPoE/PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet/ATM)
The PPPoE specification, incorporating the PPP and Ethernet standards, allows your computer(s) to connect
to your Service Provider’s network through your Ethernet WAN connection. The Motorola Netopia®-series
Gateway supports PPPoE, eliminating the need to install PPPoE client software on any LAN computers.
Service Providers may require the use of PPP authentication protocols such as Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol (CHAP) or Password Authentication Protocol (PAP). CHAP and PAP use a username
and password pair to authenticate users with a PPP server.
A CHAP authentication process works as follows:
1. The password is used to scramble a challenge string.
2. The password is a shared secret, known by both peers.
Administrator’s Handbook
352
3. The unit sends the scrambled challenge back to the peer.
PAP, a less robust method of authentication, sends a username and password to a PPP server to be
authenticated. PAP’s username and password pair are not encrypted, and are therefore sent “unscram-
bled”.
Instant-On PPP
You can configure your Gateway for one of two types of Internet connections:
Always On
Instant On
These selections provide either an uninterrupted Internet connection or an as-needed connection.
While an Always On connection is convenient, it does leave your network permanently connected to the
Internet, and therefore potentially vulnerable to attacks.
Motorola Netopia®'s Instant On technology furnishes almost all the benefits of an Always-On connection
while providing two additional security benefits:
Your network cannot be attacked when it is not connected.
Your network may change address with each connection making it more difficult to attack.
When you configure Instant On access, you can also configure an idle time-out value. Your Gateway moni-
tors traffic over the Internet link and when there has been no traffic for the configured number of seconds,
it disconnects the link.
When new traffic that is destined for the Internet arrives at the Gateway, the Gateway will instantly re-estab-
lish the link.
Your service provider may be using a system that assigns the Internet address of your Gateway out of a
pool of many possible Internet addresses. The address assigned varies with each connection attempt,
which makes your network a moving target for any attacker.
Simplified Local Area Network Setup
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server
DHCP Server functionality enables the Gateway to assign to your LAN computer(s) a “private” IP address
and other parameters that allow network communication. The default DHCP Server configuration of the
Gateway supports up to 253 LAN IP addresses.
This feature simplifies network administration because the Gateway maintains a list of IP address assign-
ments. Additional computers can be added to your LAN without the hassle of configuring an IP address.
353
DNS Proxy
Domain Name System (DNS) provides end users with the ability to look for devices or web sites by typing
their names, rather than IP addresses. For web surfers, this technology allows you to enter the URL (Univer-
sal Resource Locator) as text to surf to a desired website.
The Motorola Netopia® DNS Proxy feature allows the LAN-side IP address of the Gateway to be used for
proxying DNS requests from hosts on the LAN to the DNS Servers configured in the gateway. This is accom-
plished by having the Gateway's LAN address handed out as the “DNS Server” to the DHCP clients on the
LAN.
NOTE:
The Motorola Netopia® DNS Proxy only proxies UDP DNS queries, not TCP DNS queries.
Management
Embedded Web Server
There is no specialized software to install on your PC to configure, manage, or maintain your Motorola Neto-
pia® Gateway. Web pages embedded in the operating system provide access to the following Gateway oper-
ations:
Setup
System and security logs
Diagnostics functions
Once you have removed your Motorola Netopia® Gateway from its packing container and powered the unit
up, use any LAN attached PC or workstation running a common web browser application to configure and
monitor the Gateway.
Diagnostics
In addition to the Gateway’s visual LED indicator lights, you can run an extensive set of diagnostic tools
from your Web browser.
Two of the facilities are:
Automated “Multi-Layer” Test
The
Run Diagnostics
link initiates a sequence of tests. They examine the entire functionality of the
Gateway, from the physical connections to the data traffic.
Network Test Tools
Three test tools to determine network reachability are available:
Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by sending an ICMP echo request and
waiting for a reply.
NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.
Administrator’s Handbook
354
TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number of hops and the router
addresses of these hops.
The system log also provides diagnostic information.
NOTE:
Your Service Provider may request information that you acquire from these various diagnostic
tools. Individual tests may be performed at the command line. (See “Command Line Interface”
on page 223.).
Security
Remote Access Control
You can determine whether or not an administrator or other authorized person has access to configuring
your Gateway. This access can be turned on or off in the Web interface.
Password Protection
Access to your Motorola Netopia® device can be controlled through two access control accounts, Admin or
User.
The Admin, or administrative user, performs all configuration, management or maintenance operations
on the Gateway.
The User account provides monitor capability only.
A user may NOT change the configuration, perform upgrades or invoke maintenance functions.
Account usernames can now be changed for the Admin and User accounts.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
The Motorola Netopia® Gateway Network Address Translation (NAT) security feature lets you conceal the
topology of a hard-wired Ethernet or wireless network connected to its LAN interface from routers on net-
works connected to its WAN interface. In other words, the end computer stations on your LAN are invisible
from the Internet.
Only a single WAN IP address is required to provide this security support for your entire LAN.
LAN sites that communicate through an Internet Service Provider typically enable NAT, since they usually
purchase only one IP address from the ISP.
When NAT is ON, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway “proxies” for the end computer stations on your net-
work by pretending to be the originating host for network communications from non-originating networks.
The WAN interface address is the only IP address exposed.
The Motorola Netopia® Gateway tracks which local hosts are communicating with which remote hosts. It
routes packets received from remote networks to the correct computer on the LAN (Ethernet) interface.
355
When NAT is OFF, a Motorola Netopia® Gateway acts as a traditional TCP/IP router, all LAN computers/
devices are exposed to the Internet.
A diagram of a typical NAT-enabled LAN follows:
NOTE:
1. The default setting for NAT is ON.
2. Motorola Netopia® uses Port Address Translation (PAT) to implement the NAT facility.
3. NAT Pinhole traffic (discussed below) is always initiated from the WAN side.
Motorola Netopia® Advanced Features for NAT
Using the NAT facility provides effective LAN security. However, there are user applications that require
methods to selectively by-pass this security function for certain types of Internet traffic.
Motorola Netopia® Gateways provide special pinhole configuration rules that enable users to establish
NAT-protected LAN layouts that still provide flexible by-pass capabilities.
Some of these rules require coordination with the unit’s embedded administration services: the internal
Web (HTTP) Port (TCP 80) and the internal Telnet Server Port (TCP 23).
Internal Servers
The internal servers are the embedded Web and Telnet servers of the Gateway. You would change the inter-
nal server ports for Web and Telnet of the Gateway if you wanted to have these services on the LAN using
pinholes or the Default server.

Pinholes
This feature allows you to:
Transparently route selected types of network traffic using the port forwarding facility.
FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections are directed to a specific host on your LAN.
Setup multiple pinhole paths.
Up to 32 paths are supported
Identify the type(s) of traffic you want to redirect by port number.
Common TCP/IP protocols and ports are:
See page 82 for How To instructions.
Default Server
This feature allows you to:
Direct your Gateway to forward all externally initiated IP traffic (TCP and UDP protocols only) to a default
host on the LAN.
Enable it for certain situations:
Where you cannot anticipate what port number or packet protocol an in-bound application might use.
For example, some network games select arbitrary port numbers when a connection is opened.
When you want all unsolicited traffic to go to a specific LAN host.
Combination NAT Bypass Configuration
Specific pinholes and Default Server settings, each directed to different LAN devices, can be used together.
WARNING:
Creating a pinhole or enabling a Default Server allows inbound access to the specified LAN sta-
tion. Contact your Network Administrator for LAN security questions.
IP-Passthrough
Motorola Netopia® OS now offers an IP passthrough feature. The IP passthrough feature allows a single PC
on the LAN to have the Gateway’s public address assigned to it. It also provides PAT (NAPT) via the same
public IP address for all other hosts on the private LAN subnet.
FTP (TCP 21) telnet (TCP 23)
SMTP (TCP 25) HTTP (TCP 80)
SNMP (TCP 161, UDP 161)

VPN IPSec Pass Through
This Motorola Netopia® service supports your independent VPN client software in a transparent manner.
Motorola Netopia® has implemented an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) to support multiple PCs running IP
Security protocols.
This feature has three elements:
1. On power up or reset, the address mapping function (NAT) of the Gateway’s WAN con-
figuration is turned on by default.
2. When you use your third-party VPN application, the Gateway recognizes the traffic from
your client and your unit. It allows the packets to pass through the NAT “protection
layer” via the encrypted IPSec tunnel.
3. The encrypted IPSec tunnel is established “through” the Gateway.
A typical VPN IPSec Tunnel pass through is diagrammed below:
NOTE:
Typically, no special configuration is necessary to use the IPSec pass through feature.
In the diagram, VPN PC clients are shown behind the Motorola Netopia® Gateway and the
secure server is at Corporate Headquarters across the WAN. You cannot have your secure
server behind the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
When multiple PCs are starting IPSec sessions, they must be started one at a time to allow
the associations to be created and mapped.
VPN IPSec Tunnel Termination
This Motorola Netopia® service supports termination of VPN IPsec tunnels at the Gateway. This permits
tunnelling from the Gateway without the use of third-party VPN client software on your client PCs.

Stateful Inspection Firewall
Stateful inspection is a security feature that prevents unsolicited inbound access when NAT is disabled. You
can configure UDP and TCP “no-activity” periods that will also apply to NAT time-outs if stateful inspection is
enabled on the interface.
Technical details are discussed in “Expert Mode” on page 39.
SSL Certificate Support
On selected models, you can also install a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL V3.0) certificate from a trusted Cer-
tification Authority (CA) for authentication purposes. If this feature is available on your Gateway, an addi-
tional link will appear in the Install page.
Netopia Embedded Software Version 7.7.4 uses SSL certificates for TR-069 support.
See “Install Certificate” on page 190.
VLANs
Motorola Netopia®'s VGx technology allows a single Motorola Netopia® VGx-enabled broadband gate-
way to act as separate virtual gateways, treating each individual service as a single service "channel." The
VGx-enabled gateway applies specific policies, routing, and prioritization parameters to each service chan-
nel, ensuring delivery of that service to the appropriate peripheral device with the requisite level of QoS and
correct feature sets — making it ideal for delivery of triple play voice, video, and data services.
VGx was developed to ensure that subscribers receive the quality of voice, video, and data services they
expect — to prevent a large data download from causing jittery video or poor voice quality. VGx achieves
this goal by providing superior service segmentation and QoS features obtained by mapping multiple local
virtual local area networks (VLANs) to one or more specific permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) for DSL, or
wide area network VLANs for a fiber network.
Traffic prioritization is determined through the Institute of Electrical Engineering (IEEE) standard 802.1p,
which specifies QoS algorithms to prioritize traffic based on protocol and source. This insures that each
service receives the QoS treatment it requires; for example,
video is free from latency,
VoIP service is prioritized to insure aural quality, and
data is securely and efficiently routed.
