CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Barricade™ Wireless
Broadband Router. SMC is proud to provide you with a powerful
yet simple communication device for connecting your local area
network (wired or wireless LAN) to the Internet. For those who
want to surf on the Internet at the lowest possible cost, this
Broadband Router provides a convenient and powerful solution.
About the Barricade
The Barricade provides Internet access to multiple users by sharing
a single-user account. The Barricade’s most outstanding features
include wireless LAN connectivity, as well as the dual-port WAN
interface which allows you to connect to an xDSL or Cable modem,
ISDN TA or PSTN analog modem. The Barricade provides extensive
firewall protection and Virtual Private Network (VPN) services. It
also provides print services for any client attached to a LAN port.
The Barricade supports dial-on-demand for ISDN/PSTN service,
automatically connecting to the Internet when there are requests
and terminating the connection if no further requests occur. This
dual-port design also supports fail-over Internet access through the
secondary WAN port (i.e., the serial port can be used for primary
or backup Internet access).
This new Barricade technology provides many cost-effective
functions and management benefits. It is simple to configure and
can be up and running in minutes.

INTRODUCTION
Applications
Many advanced applications are provided by the Barricade, such as:
•
Flexible LAN Access
The Barricade provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps wired
devices as well as 11 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, Cable,
ISDN or PSTN connection. Since many DSL providers use
PPPoE to establish communications with end users, the
Barricade includes a built-in client for this protocol,
eliminating the need to install this service on your computer.
•
Shared IP Address
The Barricade 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.
•
Virtual Server
If you have a fixed IP address, you can set up the Barricade to
act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote
users access various services at your site using a constant IP
address. Then, depending on the requested service (or port
number), the Barricade 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.
1-3
APPLICATIONS
•
User-Definable Application Sensing Tunnel
You can define special applications that require multiple
connections such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, and
Internet telephony. The Barricade can then sense the
application type and open a multi-port tunnel for it.
•
DMZ Host Support
Allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the
Internet. This function is used when the special application
sensing tunnel feature is insufficient to allow an application to
function correctly.
•
Security
The Barricade 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’s 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.
•
Virtual Private Network
The Barricade supports three of the most commonly used VPN
protocols – PPTP, L2TP 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 are briefly
described below.
1-4
INTRODUCTION
•
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.
•
Layer Two Tunneling Protocol – Includes most of the
features provided by PPTP, but has less overhead and is
more suited for managed networks.
•
IP Security – Provides IP network-layer encryption. IPSec
can support large encryption networks (such as the
Internet) by using digital certificates for device
authentication.

covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
Description of Hardware
The Barricade Wireless Broadband Router can be connected to the
Internet or to a remote site using its RJ-45 WAN port or RS232
console 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. It can even function as a print server.
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. ISDN
can provide up to 128 Kbps when using two bearer channels. And
PSTN analog connections can now run up to 56 Kbps. 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 Barricade, data passing between devices
connected to your local area network can run up to 100 Mbps over
the Fast Ethernet ports.
The Barricade 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 on
the front panel; as well as one RJ-45 WAN port, one RS-232 serial
port, one parallel printer port, and two antennas on the rear panel.

INSTALLATION
Connect the System
The Barricade can be positioned at any convenient location in
your office or home. No special wiring or cooling requirements are
needed. You should, however comply with the following
guidelines:
•
Keep the Barricade away from any heating devices.
•
Do not place the Barricade in a dusty or wet environment.
You should also remember to turn off the power, remove the
power cord from the outlet, and keep your hands dry when you
install the Barricade.
Basic Installation Procedure
1. Connect the LAN: You can connect the Barricade to your PC,
or to a hub or switch. Run Ethernet cable from one of the LAN
ports on the rear of the Barricade to your computer’s network
adapter or to another network device.
You can also connect the Barricade to your PC or to a wireless
access point via radio signals. Twist both antennas on the back
of the Barricade 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.
2. Connect the WAN: Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting
the Barricade to a Cable/xDSL modem or Ethernet router.
Prepare a serial cable for connecting the Barricade to an ISDN

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 cable wiring
(auto-MDI/MDI-X) that allows you to use either straight-through
cable for connecting the gateway 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 RJ-45 plug, be sure the tab
on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.
2-7
INSTALLATION
Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45
port. This may damage the gateway. 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
3, 4 or 5 for connections that operate at 10 Mbps, and
Category 5 for connections that operate at 100 Mbps.

SMC currently offers several wireless network cards, including the
SMC2602W PCI card and the SMC2652W PC card.
Rotate both antennas on the back of the Barricade to an upright
position. Try to place the Barricade 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’s location provides optimal reception throughout your
home or office.
2-8
INSTALLATION
Computers equipped with a wireless adapter can communicate
with each other as an independent wireless LAN by configuring
each computer to the same radio channel. However, the Barricade
can provide access to your wired/wireless LAN or to the Internet
for all wireless workstations. Each wireless PC in this network
infrastructure 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.
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 signals through the Barricade.
A wireless infrastructure can be used for access to a central
database, or for connection between mobile workers, as shown in

CLIENT PCS
TCP/IP Configuration
To access the Internet through the Barricade™ Broadband Router,
you must configure the network settings of the computers on your
LAN to use the same IP subnet as that defined for the Barricade.
The default network settings for the Barricade are:
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Note: These settings can be changed to fit your network
requirements, but you must first configure at least one
computer as described in Chapter 5 to access the
Barricade’s Web configuration interface. (See Chapter 4 for
information on configuring the Barricade.)
If you have not previously configured TCP/IP for your computer,
refer to “Installing TCP/IP Protocol in Your PC” on page 5-1.
All PCs connected to the Barricade must be set to the same IP
subnet as that defined for the Barricade. The default subnet
address of the Barricade is 192.168.2.X (where X means 2–254)
and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. You can set the IP address
for client PCs either by automatically obtaining an IP address from
the Barricade’s DHCP service or by manual configuration. See
“Setting TCP/IP to Work with the Barricade” on page 5-3.

DNS Configuration
Domain Name Servers are used to map an IP address to the
equivalent domain name (e.g., www.smc.com). Your ISP should
provide the IP address for one or more domain name servers.
Enter those addresses on this screen.
Wireless Configuration
To configure the Barricade as a wireless access point for wireless
clients (either stationary or roaming), all you need to do is define
the radio channel, the domain identifier, and encryption options.
You can use the Setup Wizard by clicking the “Enter” button at the
bottom of the page and changing the required settings, or you can
select “Channel and SSID” or “Encryption” from the Setup menu
on the left side of the screen.
4-12
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE
Channel and SSID
You must specify a common radio channel and service domain
(i.e., Extended Service Set ID) to be used by the Barricade and all
of your wireless clients. Be sure you configure all of your clients to
the same values.
Encryption
If you are transmitting sensitive data across wireless channels, you
should enable encryption. Encryption requires you to use the same
set of encryption/decryption keys for the Barricade and all of your
wireless clients. However, note that the extra processing time
required for encryption may affect the throughput for wireless
communications, and therefore should not be used unless actually
necessary.
4-13
NETWORKING AND CLIENT SERVICES
You can automatically generate encryption keys by entering a pass
phrase that will be used to create four keys as shown below, or
you can manually enter the keys. To manually configure the keys,
enter five hexadecimal pairs for each key. (A hexadecimal digit is a
number or letter in the range 0-9 or A-F.)
If you use encryption, then configure the same keys used for the
Barricade on each of your wireless clients. Note that the Wireless
Encryption Protocol (WEP) protects data transmitted between
wireless nodes, but does not protect any transmissions over your
wired network or over the Internet.
4-14
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE
Configuring Client Services
The Barricade includes a broad range of client services, including
firewall protection, network address translation / virtual server,
connection support for special applications, and restricted Internet
access for specified clients. You can configure these functions
using the Setup Wizard by clicking “Enter” at the bottom of the
Advanced Settings screen, or by selecting specific items from the
menu at the left of the screen.
Firewall Protection
The Barricade’s firewall can 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. The firewall does not significantly
affect system performance, so we advise leaving it enabled to
protect your network users.
4-15
NETWORKING AND CLIENT SERVICES
Network Address Translation – NAT
Network Address Translation can be used to give multiple users
access to the Internet with a single user account, or to map the
local address for an IP server (such as Web or FTP) to a public
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. Note that NAT must be enabled to provide multiuser access to the Internet or to use the Virtual Server function.
4-16
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE
Virtual Server
If you configure the Barricade as a virtual server, remote users
accessing services such as Web or FTP at your local site via public
IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers
configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending
on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the Barricade
redirects the external service request to the appropriate server
(located at another internal IP address).
You must have a fixed IP to utilize this function. For example, if
you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or Web) and the Private
IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP request from outside users
4-17
NETWORKING AND CLIENT SERVICES
will be transferred to 192.168.2.2. Therefore, by just entering the IP
Address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service
they need at the local address to which you redirect them.
Some of the more common TCP service ports include:
HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23 and POP3: 110.
Enabling Special Applications
Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet
games, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others. These
applications may not work when Network Address Translation
(NAT) is enabled. If you need to run applications that require
multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the
additional public ports to be opened for each application.
4-18
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE
Specify the port normally associated with an application in the
“Trigger Port” field, select the protocol type as TCP or UDP, then
enter the public ports associated with the trigger port to open
them for inbound traffic.
Note: If an application still cannot function correctly after
enabling multiple ports via the Special Application screen,
you may have to open the client PC for full Internet access
using the DMZ Host option.
Virtual DMZ Host
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application
properly from behind the NAT firewall or after configuring the
Special Applications function, then you can open the client up to
unrestricted two-way Internet access.
Enter the IP address of a DMZ host to this screen. Adding a client
to the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) may expose your local network
to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.
4-19
NETWORKING AND CLIENT SERVICES
Remote Management
By default, management access is only available to users on your
local network. However, you can also manage the Barricade from
a remote host by adding the IP address of an administrator to this
screen.
Note: If you specify an IP address of 0.0.0.0, any host can manage
the Barricade.
4-20
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE
Client Filtering
You can filter Internet access for local clients based on IP address,
application type (i.e., HTTP port), and time of day.
For example, this screen shows that clients in the address range
192.168.2.50-99 are permanently restricted from using FTP (Port

LED Indicators
Power LED is Off
•
External power supply has failed or is
disconnected.
•
Check connections between the Barricade, the
external power supply, and the wall outlet.
•
If the power indicator does not turn on when the
power cord is plugged in, you may have a
problem with the power outlet, power cord, or
external power supply.
However, if the unit powers off after running for
a while, check for loose power connections,
power losses or surges at the power outlet.
If you still cannot isolate the problem, then the
external power supply may be defective. In this
case, contact SMC Technical Support for
assistance.

•
Verify that IP addresses are properly configured.
For most applications, you should use the
Barricade’s DHCP function to dynamically assign
IP addresses to any host on the attached LAN.
However, if you manually configure any IP
addresses on the LAN, verify that the same
network address (network component of the IP
address) and subnet mask are used for both the
Barricade and attached LAN devices.
•
Be sure the device you want to ping (or from
which you are pinging) has been configured for
TCP/IP.
•
Make sure that the Barricade and all mobile users
are configured to use the same radio channel,
wireless domain (ESSID), and encryption keys.
•
Ensure that all mobile users are within range of
the Barricade as specified in Appendix C.

Caution: DO-NOT plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45
port. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors
that conform with FCC standards.
For 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must
have two pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two
different colors. For example, one wire might be red and the other,
red with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector must be attached
to both ends of the cable. All the RJ-45 ports on the Barricade
support automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration. This means that you
can use straight-through cable to attach to any network device.
The Ethernet cable you use on the Barricade can be wired straight
through for Pins 1, 2, 3 and 6, matching the same pins at the both
ends of the cable. Pins 4, 5, 7 and 8 are not used.
