includes a 10/ IOOMbps WAN port which allows you to connect to an
xDSL or Cahle modem. The most outstanding feature of the Barrimdc
Plus is its extensive firewall protection and Virtual Private Network
(VPN) services.
This new Barricade Plus technology provides many secure and
cost-effective functions. It is simple to configure and can be up and
running in minutes.
1-1
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Features and Benefits
1—2

and virtual server functionality (providing protected access to
Internet services such as Web, FTP, mail and Telnet)
Supports 1 VPN (Virtual Private Network) tunnel, IPSec and
PPTP
Easy setup through a Web browser on any operating system
that suppozts T CP/IP
Compatible with all popular Internet applications
[mom/arrow
Applications
Many advanced applications are provided by the Barricade Plus, such
ES:
- Flexible IAN Access
The Wireless Barricade Plus provides connectivity to 10/
100 Mbps wired devices as well as 1 1 Mbps wireless mobile users.
The wireless interface makes it easy to create a network in
difficult-to—wire environments, or to provide quick access to
databases for mobile workers,
. Internet Access
This device supports Internet access through an xDSL, or Cable
connection. Since many DSL providers use PPPoE to establish
conununications with end users, the Barricade Plus includes a
built—in Client for this protocol, eliminating the need to install
this service on your computer.
- Shared IP Address
The Barricade Plus provides Internet access for up to 253 users
with a shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple
users on your network can browse the Web at the same time.
1—3
APPLICATIONS
Virtual Server
If you have a fixed IP address, you can set up the Barricade Plus
to act as a virtual host using network address translation (NAT).
Remote users access various services at your site using a constant
IP address Then, depending on the requested service (or port
number), the Barricade Plus can route the request to the
appropriate server (at another internal IP address). This secures
your network from direct attack by hackers, and provides more
flexible management by allowing you to change internal IP
addresses without affecting outside access to your network.
DMZ Host Support
Allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the
Internet.
Security
The Barricade Plus supports security features that can deny
Internet access to specified users, or filter all requests for specific
services the administrator does not want to serve. The Barricade
Plus’ firewall can also block common hacker attacks, including
IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length,
Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack, TCP null
scan, and TCP SYN flooding.
Stateful Packet Inspection (SP1)
Stateful Packet Inspection is one of the firewall features provided
by the Barricade Plus. The SPI ensures that the data coming into
your network was requested by an end node computer on your
network. The Barricade Plus examines the incoming data and
compares it to a database of trusted information. As traffic leaves
the network, it is defined by certain characteristics. Incoming
information is then compared to these sets of characteristics. If
the incoming data matches the predefined set of characteristics,
INTRODUCTION
the incoming traffic is allowed. If no match is found, the
incoming traffic is discarded.
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
The Barricade Plus supports two of the most commonly used
VPN protocols —- PPTP and IPSec. These protocols allow remote
users to establish a secure connection to their corporate network.
If your service provider supports VPNs, then any of these
protocols can be used to create an authenticated and encrypted
tunnel for passing secure data over the Internet (i.e., a
traditionally shared data network), The VPN protocols
supported by the Barricade Plus are briefly described below.
~ Point—to-Point Tunneling Protocol—Provides a secure tunnel
for remote client access to a PPTP security gateway. PPTP
includes provisions for call origination and flow control
required by ISPs.
- IP Security — Provides IP network-layer encryption. IPSec
can support large encryption networks (such as the
Internet) by using digital certificates for device
authentication.

Description of Hardware
2-2
The Barricade Plus can be connected to the Internet or to a remote
site using its RJ45 WAN port. It can be connected directly to your
PC or to a local area network using any of the three Fast Ethernet
LAN ports or through the wireless interface.
Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type.
Full-rate ADSL can provide up to 8 Mbps downstream and 640
Mbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5
Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems can
provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream. However,
you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service
providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits,
Although access speed to the Internet is determined by the modem
type connected to your Wireless Barricade Plus, data passing between
devices connected to your local area network can run up to
100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet pelts.
The Wireless Barricade Plus includes an LED display on the front
panel for system power and port indications that simplifies
installation and network troubleshooting. It also provides three Rj—45
LAN ports, one Rj-45 WAN port, as well as two detachable antennas
on the rear panel
INSTAIJA HON
- Three RJ—45 ports for connection to a IOBASE—T/ 100BASE~TX
Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN). These ports can auto—
negotiate the operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to
half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI—X (i.e.,
allowing these ports to be connected to any network device
with straight—through cable). These ports can be connected
directly to a PC or to a server equipped with an Ethernet
network interface card, or to a networking device such as an
Ethernet hub or switch.
0 One 111—45 port for connection to an xDSL or cable modem. This
port is fixed at 10/100 Mbps, full duplex. This port only
supports MDI—X pin signals, so you will have to use either
straight— through or crossover cable depending on the port type
used on the modern.
0 Two detacha ale antennas (dipole, Dunn-directional).

1. Connect the IAN: You can connect the Barricade Plus to your
PC, or to a hub or switch. Run Ethernet cable from one of the
LAN ports on the rear of the Barricade Plus to your computer’s
network adapter or to another network device.
You can also connect the Barricade Plus to your PC (using a
wireless client adapter) via radio signals. Position both antennas
on the back of the Barricade Plus into the desired positions. For
more effective coverage, you may want to position one antenna
along the vertical axis and the other antenna along the horizontal
axis.(Theantennasemitsignalsalongthetoroidalplaue—md

2. Connect the WAN: Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting the
Barricade Plus to a cable/XDSL modem or Ethemet router.
5. Power on: Connect the power adapter to the Barricade Plus.

Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling
The three LAN ports on the Barricade can auto—negotiate the
connection speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, as
well as the transmission mode to half-duplex or full—duplex. These
LAN ports also support auto-configuration for pin signals
(auto—MDI/MDI—X) that allows you to use straight-fluough cable for
connecting the Barricade to any network device. (See Appendix B for
details on wiring.)
Use twisted-pair cable to connect any of the three LAN ports on the
Barricade to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, you can
cascade any of LAN ports on the Barricade to an Ethernet hub or
switch, and then connect your PC or other network equipment to
the hub or switch. When inserting an KJ—45 plug, be sure the tab on
the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.
Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port.
This may damage the Barricade Plus. Instead, use only
twisted—pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform
with FCC standards.

Notes: 1. Use 100-ohm shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable
with RJ-45 connectors for all connections. Use Category 5,
/1 or 5 for connections that operate at 10 Mbps, and
Category 5 for connections that operate at 100 Mbps.
2. Make sure each twisted—pair cable does not exceed 100
meters (328 feet).

Attach to Your Network Using Radio Signals
Install a Wireless network adapter in each computer that will be
connected to the Internet or your local network via radio signals.
SMC Currently offers several wireless network cards, including the
SMC2602W Wireless PCI card and the SMC2632‘X7 Wireless PC card.
Rotate both antennas on the back of the Barricade Plus to the desired
position. For more effective coverage, position one antenna along the
vertical axis and the other along the horizontal axis. Try to place the
Barricade Plus in a position that is located in the center of your
wireless network, Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the
better the performance. Ensure that the Barricade Plus’ location
provides optimal reception throughout your home or office.
Computers equipped with a wireless adapter can communicate with
each other as an independent wireless LAN by configuring each
INSTALLATION
computer to the same radio channel. However, the Barricade Plus can
provide access to your wired/wireless LAN or to the Internet for all
wirclcss workstations. Each wireless PC in this network
infrastmcture can talk to any computer in the wireless group via a
radio link, or access other computers or network resources in the
wired LAN infrastructure or over the Internet via the Barricade Plus.
The wireless infrastructure configuration not only extends the
accessibility of wireless PCs to the wired LAN, but also doubles the
effective wireless transmission range for wireless PCs by
retransmitting incoming radio signals through the Barricade Plus.
A wireless infrastructtu’e can be used for access to a central database,
or for connection between mobile workers, as shown in the
following figure:

Attach the Barricade Plus to the Internet
If Internet services are provided through an XDSL or able modem,
use unshielded or shielded twisted-pair Ethernet cable (Category 3 or
greater) with RJ—4S plugs to connect the broadband modem directly
to the WAN port on the Barricade Plus. Use either straight through
or cross over cabling depending on the port type provided by the
modern (see Appendix B).
