Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router44LAN•LAN IP – Use the LAN menu to configure the LAN IP address for the Wireless Barricade and to enable the DHCP server for dynamic client address allocation. •Set a period for the lease time if required. For home networks this may be set to Forever, which means there is no time limit on the IP address lease.•IP Address Pool – A dynamic IP start address may be specified by the user, e.g. 192.168.2.100 (default value). Once this start IP address has been assigned, IP addresses running from 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.199 will be part of the dynamic IP address pool. IP addresses from 192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.99, and 192.168.2.200 to 192.168.2.254 will be available as static IP addresses.Remember not to include the address of the Wireless Barricade in the client address pool. Also remember to configure your client PCs for dynamic IP address allocation.
Advanced Setup45WirelessTo configure the Wireless Barricade as a wireless access point for wireless clients (either stationary or roaming), all you need to do is define the radio channel, the Service Set identifier (SSID), and encryption options.Channel and SSIDYou must specify a common radio channel and SSID (Service Set ID) to be used by the Wireless Barricade and all of your wireless clients. Be sure you configure all of your clients to the same values.ESSID: The Service Set ID. This should be set to the same value as other wireless devices in your network. (Default: SMC.)Note: The SSID is case sensitive and can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router46Transmission Rate: Set the data rate transmitted from the Wireless Barricade. The lower the data rate, the longer the transmission distance. (Default: Fully Automatic.)Basic Rate: The highest rate specified is the rate the Wireless Barricade will use when transmitting broadcast/multicast and management frames. Available options are: 1, 2, 5.5, and 11Mbps. (Default: 2Mbps.)Channel: The radio channel through which the Wireless Barricade communicates with PCs in its BSS. (Default: Auto) Note: The available channel settings are limited by local regulations.EncryptionIf you are transmitting sensitive data across wireless channels, you should enable Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption. Encryption requires you to use the same set of encryption/decryption keys for the Wireless Barricade and all of your wireless clients. You can choose between standard 64-bit or the more robust 128-bit encryption.
Advanced Setup47You may automatically generate encryption keys or manually enter the keys. For automatic 64-bit security, enter a passphrase and click Generate. Four keys will be generated (as shown below). Choose a key from the dropdown list or accept the default key. Automatic 128-bit security generates a single key.
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router48If you use encryption, configure the same keys used for the Wireless Barricade on each of your wireless clients. Note that Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protects data transmitted between wireless nodes, but does not protect any transmissions over your wired network or over the Internet.Network Address Translation (NAT)From this section you can configure the Address Mapping, Virtual Server, and Special Application features that provide control over the port openings in the Wireless Barricade’s firewall. This section can be used to support several Internet based applications such as VPNAddress MappingAllows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP.
Advanced Setup49Virtual ServerIf you configure the Wireless 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 Wireless Barricade redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address).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 requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. 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.The more common TCP service ports include:HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110.
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router50Special ApplicationsSome applications, such as Internet gaming, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others, require multiple connections. These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) 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.Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the protocol type to TCP or UDP, then enter the ports that the application requires. The ports may be in the format 7, 11, 57, or in a range, e.g., 72-96, or a combination of both, e.g., 7, 11, 57, 72-96.For a full list of ports and the services that run on them, see www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.
Advanced Setup51Firewallthe Wireless Barricade firewall can provide access control of connected client PCs, 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.Access ControlUsing this option allows you to specify different privileges based on IP address for the client PCs.
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router52Note: Click on Add PC and define the appropriate settings for client PC services (as shown in the following screen).
Advanced Setup53MAC Filtering TableThe MAC Filtering feature of the Wireless Barricade allows you to control access to your network to up to 32 clients based on the MAC (Media Access Control) Address of the client machine. This ID is unique to each network adapter. If the MAC address is listed in the table, that client machine will have access to the network.
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router54URL BlockingTo configure the URL Blocking feature, use the table below to specify the websites (www.somesite.com) and/or keywords you want to filter on your network. To complete this configuration, you will need to create or modify an access rule in “Access Control” on page 51. To modify an existing rule, click the Edit option next to the rule you want to modify. To create a new rule, click on the Add PC option.From the Access Control Add PC section check the option for WWW with URL Blocking in the Client PC Service table to filter out the websites and keywords specified below.Use the above screen to block access to Web sites or to Web URLs containing the keyword specified in the table.

Advanced Setup57Intrusion DetectionFirewall Configuration•SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) and Anti-DoS firewall protection (Default: Enabled) – the Wireless Barricade’s Intrusion Detection feature limits access for incoming traffic at the WAN port. When the SPI feature is turned on, all incoming packets will be blocked.•Discard Ping from WAN (Default: Enabled) – Prevents a PING on the Wireless Barricade’s WAN port from being routed to the network.E-Mail Alert Configuration•When hackers attempt to enter your network, we can alert you by e-mail – Enter your E-mail address. Specify your SMTP and POP3 servers, user name, and password.
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router58DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the firewall, 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 may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.
Advanced Setup59DDNS (Dynamic DNS) SettingsDomain Name is a series of alphanumeric strings separated by periods, that is the address of a network connection and that identifies the owner of the address.Dynamic DNS provides users on the Internet with a method to tie their domain name(s) to computers or servers. DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP address automatically by having your DNS records changed when your IP address changes.The Server Configuration section automatically opens the port options checked in the Virtual Server section. Simply enter in the IP Address of your server, such as a web server, and then click on the port option HTTP Port 80 so users can access your server from the WAN connection (Internet).
Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router60This DNS feature is powered by TZO.com. With a DDNS connection you can host your own web site, email server, FTP site, and more at your own location even if you have a dynamic IP address. (Default: Disable)UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) SettingEnable UPnP by checking ON in the screen above.
