ROUTING4-71When a router receives a routing update that includes changes to an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new route. RIP routers maintain only the best route to a destination. After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting routing updates to inform other network routers of the change.Click Save Settings to proceed, or Cancel to change your settings.Version Sets the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) version to use on this interface.Poison Reverse A method for preventing loops that would cause endless retransmission of data traffic.Authentication Required None: No authentication.Password: A password authentication key is included in the packet. If this does not match what is expected, the packet will be discarded. This method provides very little security as it is possible to learn the authentication key by watching RIP packets.Authentication Code Password Authentication key.Parameter Description
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE4-72Routing TableClick Routing Table to view the screen below.Parameter DescriptionFlags Indicates the route status:C = Direct connection on the same subnet.S = Static route.R = RIP (Routing Information Protocol) assigned route.I = ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) Redirect route.Network Address Destination IP address.Netmask The subnetwork associated with the destination.This is a template that identifies the address bits in the destination address used for routing to specific subnets. Each bit that corresponds to a “1” is part of the subnet mask number; each bit that corresponds to “0” is part of the host number.Gateway The IP address of the router at the next hop to which frames are forwarded.Interface The local interface through which the next hop of this route is reached.Metric When a router receives a routing update that contains a new or changed destination network entry, the router adds 1 to the metric value indicated in the update and enters the network in the routing table.
A-1APPENDIX ATROUBLESHOOTINGThis section describes common problems you may encounter and possible solutions to them. The Barricade can be easily monitored through panel indicators to identify problems. Troubleshooting ChartSymptom ActionLED IndicatorsPower LED is off• 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 Technical Support for assistance.
TROUBLESHOOTINGA-2LED IndicatorsLAN LED is Off• Verify that the Barricade and attached device are powered on. • Be sure the cable is plugged into both the Barricade and the corresponding device. • Verify that the proper cable type is used and that its length does not exceed the specified limits. • Be sure that the network interface on the attached device is configured for the proper communication speed and duplex mode.• Check the adapter on the attached device and cable connections for possible defects. Replace any defective adapter or cable if necessary. Network Connection ProblemsCannot ping the Barricade from the attached LAN, or the Barricade cannot ping any device on the attached LAN• Verify that the IP addresses are properly configured. For most applications, you should use the Barricade’s DHCP function to dynamically assign IP addresses to hosts on the attached LAN. However, if you manually configure 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 any attached LAN devices.• Be sure the device you want to ping (or from which you are pinging) has been configured for TCP/IP.Troubleshooting ChartSymptom Action
TROUBLESHOOTINGA-3Management ProblemsCannot connect using the web browser• Be sure to have configured the Barricade with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.• Check that you have a valid network connection to the Barricade and that the port you are using has not been disabled.• Check the network cabling between the management station and the Barricade.Forgot or lost the password•Press the Reset button on the rear panel (holding it down for at least six seconds) to restore the factory defaults.Troubleshooting ChartSymptom Action
TROUBLESHOOTINGA-4Wireless ProblemsA wireless PC cannot associate with the Barricade.• Make sure the wireless PC has the same SSID settings as the Barricade. See “Channel and SSID” on page 4-24.• You need to have the same security settings on the clients and the Barricade. See “Security” on page 4-27.The wireless network is often interrupted.• Move your wireless PC closer to the Barricade to find a better signal. If the signal is still weak, change the angle of the antenna.• There may be interference, possibly caused by microwave ovens or wireless phones. Change the location of the possible sources of interference or change the location of the Barricade.• Change the wireless channel on the Barricade. See “Channel and SSID” on page 4-24.• Check that the antenna, connectors, and cabling are firmly connected.The Barricade cannot be detected by a wireless client.• The distance between the Barricade and wireless PC is too great.• Make sure the wireless PC has the same SSID and security settings as the Barricade. See “Channel and SSID” on page 4-24 and “Security” on page 4-27.Troubleshooting ChartSymptom Action
B-1APPENDIX BCABLESEthernet CableCaution:Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. For Ethernet connections, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform to FCC standards.SpecificationsWiring ConventionsFor Ethernet 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.Cable Types and SpecificationsCable Type Max. Length Connector10BASE-T Cat. 3, 4, 5 100-ohm UTP 100 m (328 ft) RJ-45100BASE-TX Cat. 5 100-ohm UTP 100 m (328 ft) RJ-45
CABLESB-2Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a specific orientation. The following figure illustrates how the pins on an Ethernet RJ-45 connector are numbered. Be sure to hold the connectors in the same orientation when attaching the wires to the pins. Figure B-1.  RJ-45 Ethernet Connector Pin NumbersRJ-45 Port Ethernet ConnectionUse the straight-through CAT -5 Ethernet cable provided in the package to connect the Barricade to your PC. When connecting to other network devices such as an Ethernet switch, use the cable type shown in the following table.Attached Device Port Type Connecting Cable TypeMDI-X Straight-throughMDI Crossover
