24 4.5 Forwarding Rules 4.5.1 Virtual Server
25 This product’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping. A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule. For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.123.1, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.123.2, and a VPN server at 192.168.123.6, then you need to specify the following virtual server mapping table: Service Port Server IP Enable 21 192.168.123.1 V 80 192.168.123.2 V 1723 192.168.123.6 V
26 4.5.2 Special AP Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the DMZ host instead. 1. Trigger: the outbound port number issued by the application.. 2. Incoming Ports: when the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall. This product provides some predefined settings Select your application and click Copy to to add the predefined setting to your list. Note! At any given time, only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel.
27 4.5.3 Miscellaneous Items IP Address of DMZ Host DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of firewall. It allows a computer to be exposed to unrestricted 2-way communication for Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. NOTE: This feature should be used only when needed. Non-standard FTP port You have to configure this item if you want to access an FTP server whose port number is not 21. This setting will be lost after rebooting.
28 4.6 Security Settings
29 4.6.1 Packet Filter Packet Filter enables you to control what packets are allowed to pass the router. Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, Inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies: 1. Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules 2. Deny all to pass except those match the specified rules You can specify 8 rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following: • Source IP address • Source port address • Destination IP address • Destination port address • Protocol: TCP or UDP or both. • Use Rule# For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1) or a range of IP
30 addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty implies all IP addresses. For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). Add prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999. No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. Packet Filter can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule. Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually. Inbound Filter: To enable Inbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Inbound Packet Filter field. Suppose you have SMTP Server (25), POP Server (110), Web Server (80), FTP Server (21), and News Server (119) defined in Virtual Server or DMZ Host. Example 1: (1.2.3.100-1.2.3.149) They are allow to send mail (port 25), receive mail (port 110), and browse the Internet (port 80)
31 (1.2.3.10-1.2.3.20) They can do everything (block nothing) Others are all blocked. Example 2: (1.2.3.100-1.2.3.119) They can do everything except read net news (port 119) and transfer files via FTP (port 21) Others are all allowed. After Inbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button. Outbound Filter: To enable Outbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Outbound Packet Filter field.
32 Example 1: (192.168.123.100-192.168.123.149) They are allowed to send mail (port 25), receive mail (port 110), and browse Internet (port 80); port 53 (DNS) is necessary to resolve the domain name. (192.168.123.10-192.168.123.20) They can do everything (block nothing) Others are all blocked.
33 Example 2: (192.168.123.100-192.168.123.119) They can do everything except read net news (port 119) and transfer files via FTP (port 21) Others are allowed After Outbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button.
34 4.6.2 Domain Filter Domain Filter Let you prevent users under this device from accessing specific URLs. Domain Filter Enable Check if you want to enable Domain Filter. Log DNS Query Check if you want to log the action when someone accesses the specific URLs. Privilege IP Addresses Range Setting a group of hosts and privilege these hosts to access network without restriction. Domain Suffix A suffix of URL to be restricted. For example, ".com", "xxx.com". Action When someone is accessing the URL met the domain-suffix, what kind of action you want. Check drop to block the access. Check log to log these accesses. Enable Check to enable each rule.
35 Example: In this example: 1. URL include “www.msn.com” will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file. 2. URL include “www.sina.com” will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file. 3. URL include “www.google.com” will be blocked, but the action will not be record in log-file. 4. IP address X.X.X.1~ X.X.X.20 can access network without restriction.
36 4.6.3 URL Blocking URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites. The major difference between “Domain filter” and “URL Blocking” is Domain filter require user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites by simply a keyword. URL Blocking Enable Checked if you want to enable URL Blocking. URL If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the connection will be blocked. For example, you can use pre-defined word "sex" to block all websites if their URLs contain pre-defined word "sex". Enable Checked to enable each rule.
37 In this example: 1. URL include “msn” will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file. 2. URL include “sina” will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file 3. URL include “cnnsi” will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file. 4. URL include “espn” will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file
38 4.6.4 MAC Address Control MAC Address Control allows you to assign different access right for different users and to assign a specific IP address to a certain MAC address. MAC Address Control Check “Enable” to enable the “MAC Address Control”. All of the settings in this page will take effect only when “Enable” is checked. Connection control Check "Connection control" to enable the controlling of which wired and wireless clients can connect to this device. If a client is denied to connect to this device, it means the client can't access to the Internet either. Choose "allow" or "deny" to allow or deny the clients, whose MAC addresses are not in the "Control table" (please see below), to connect to this device. Association control Check "Association control" to enable the controlling of which wireless client can associate to the wireless LAN. If a client is denied to associate to the wireless LAN, it means the client can't send or receive any data via this device. Choose "allow" or "deny" to allow or deny the clients, whose MAC addresses are not in the "Control table", to
39 associate to the wireless LAN. Control table "Control table" is the table at the bottom of the "MAC Address Control" page. Each row of this table indicates the MAC address and the expected IP address mapping of a client. There are four columns in this table: MAC Address MAC address indicates a specific client. IP Address Expected IP address of the corresponding client. Keep it empty if you don't care its IP address. C When "Connection control" is checked, check "C" will allow the corresponding client to connect to this device. A When "Association control" is checked, check "A" will allow the corresponding client to associate to the wireless LAN. In this page, we provide the following Combobox and button to help you to input the MAC address. You can select a specific client in the “DHCP clients” Combobox, and then click on the “Copy to” button to copy the MAC address of the client you select to the ID selected in the “ID” Combobox.

You can assign more than 1 recipient, using ';' or ',' to separate these email addresses.
44 4.7.3 Dynamic DNS To host your server on a changing IP address, you have to use dynamic domain name service (DDNS). So that anyone wishing to reach your host only needs to know the name of it. Dynamic DNS will map the name of your host to your current IP address, which changes each time you connect your Internet service provider. Before you enable Dynamic DNS, you need to register an account on one of these Dynamic DNS servers that we list in provider field. To enable Dynamic DNS click the check box next to Enable in the DDNS field. Next you can enter the appropriate information about your Dynamic DNS Server. You have to define: Provider Host Name Username/E-mail
45 Password/Key You will get this information when you register an account on a Dynamic DNS server. Example: After Dynamic DNS setting is configured, click the save button.
46 4.7.4 SNMP Setting In brief, SNMP, the Simple Network Management Protocol, is a protocol designed to give a user the capability to remotely manage a computer network by polling and setting terminal values and monitoring network events. Enable SNMP You must check either Local or Remote or both to enable SNMP function. If Local is checked, this device will response request from LAN. If Remote is checked, this device will response request from WAN. Get Community Setting the community of GetRequest your device will response. Set Community Setting the community of SetRequest your device will accept.
47 4.7.5 Routing Table Routing Tables allow you to determine which physical interface address to use for outgoing IP data grams. If you have more than one routers and subnets, you will need to enable routing table to allow packets to find proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other. Routing Table settings are settings used to setup the functions of static. Static Routing: For static routing, you can specify up to 8 routing rules. You can enter the destination IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and hop for each routing rule, and then enable or disable the rule by checking or unchecking the Enable checkbox.
48 Example: Configuration on NAT Router Destination SubnetMask Gateway Hop Enabled 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.123.216 1 ˇ 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.123.103 1 ˇ So if, for example, the client3 wanted to send an IP data gram to 192.168.0.2, it would use the above table to determine that it had to go via 192.168.123.103 (a gateway), And if it sends Packets to 192.168.1.11 will go via 192.168.123.216 Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually. After routing table setting is configured, click the save button.
49 4.7.6 Schedule Rule You can set the schedule time to decide which service will be turned on or off. Select the “enable” item. Press “Add New Rule”
50 You can write a rule name and set which day and what time to schedule from “Start Time” to “End Time”. The following example configure “ftp time” as everyday 14:10 to 16:20
51 After configure Rule 1à Schedule Enable Selected if you want to Enable the Scheduler. Edit To edit the schedule rule. Delete To delete the schedule rule, and the rule# of the rules behind the deleted one will decrease one automatically. Schedule Rule can be applied to Virtual server and Packet Filter, for example:
52 Exanple1: Virtual Server – Apply Rule#1 (ftp time: everyday 14:10 to 16:20) Exanple2: Packet Filter – Apply Rule#1 (ftp time: everyday 14:10 to 16:20).
