NAT function not only eliminates the need for multiple public IP addresses but also provides a measure ofsecurity for your LAN.When the router receives an incoming IP packet requesting for access to your local server, the router will recognizethe service type according to the port number in this packet (e.g., port 80 indicates HTTP service and port 21
ADSL Router User Manual60indicates FTP service). By specifying the port number, you tell the router which service should be forwarded to thelocal IP address you specify.After you setting the virtual server you should modify the filter rule whichever port and service you set on virtualserver. Because the firewall has protect the route by filter rule so that you should update the filter rule after you set upvirtual server.Protocol:  Select a protocol type used by the service that will be forwarded.TCP/IP Port:  The Router supports port mapping function that translates a standard port number to a non-standard number. Incoming data packets sent to a specific IP port can be mapped to the portyou specify. The most often used port numbers include:21 (FTP), 80 (HTTP), 23 (Telnet) and 25(SMTP)IP Address:  Specify the internal IP address to which the packets are forwarded.In the virtual server list table, you may select required entry to modify or delete it by clicking Modify or Delete. Inorder to add new virtual server service entry, click Create a new server button.Then follow the steps below:1. Select the ATM PVC interface.2. Select the protocol type from the drop-down list.3. Select a service in TCP /IP Port field and enter the port number you want to use.4. Enter the IP address of the internal server in the IP Address filed.5. Click Apply to commit the setting.

Chapter 6:Troubleshooting67CChhaapptteerr  77::  GGlloossssaarryyARP (Address Resolution Protocol )ARP is a TCP/IP protocol for mapping an IP address to a physical machine address that isrecognized in the local network, such as an Ethernet address.A host wishing to obtain a physical address broadcasts an ARP request onto the TCP/IP network.The host on the network that has the IP address in the request then replies with its physicalhardware address.Inverse ARP (In-ARP), on the other hand, is used by a host to discover its IP address. In thiscase, the host broadcasts its physical address and a RARP server replies with the host's IPaddress.DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)When operates as a DHCP server, the ADSL Router assign IP addresses to the client PCs on theLAN. The client PCs “leases” these Private IP addresses for a user-defined amount of time. Afterthe lease time expires, the private IP address is made available for assigning to other networkdevices.The DHCP IP address can be a single, fixed public IP address, an ISP assigned public IP address,or a private IP address.If you enable DHCP server on a private IP address, a public IP address will have to be assignedto the NAT IP address, and NAT has to be enabled so that the DHCP IP address can betranslated into a public IP address. By this, the client PCs are able to access the Internet.LAN (Local Area Network) & WAN (Wide Area Network)A LAN is a computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floorof a building. A WAN, on the other hand, is an outside connection to another network or theInternet.The Ethernet side of the ADSL Router is called the LAN port. It is a twisted-pair Ethernet10Base-T interface. A hub can be connected to the LAN port. More than one computers, such asserver or printer, can be connected through this hub to the ADSL Router and composes a LAN.The DSL port of the ADSL Router composes the WAN interface, which supports PPP or RFC 1483connecting to another remote DSL device.NAT (Network Address Translation) IP AddressNAT is an Internet standard that translates a private IP within one network to a public IPaddress, either a static or dynamic one. NAT provides a type of firewall by hiding internal IPaddresses. It also enables a company to use more internal IP addresses.If the IP addresses given by your ISP are not enough for each PC on the LAN and the ADSLRouter, you need to use NAT. With NAT, you make up a private IP network for the LAN andassign an IP address from that network to each PC. One of some public addresses is configuredand mapped to a private workstation address when accesses are made through the gateway toa public network.For example, the ADSL Router is assigned with the public IP address of 168.111.2.1. With NATenabled, it creates a Virtual LAN. Each PC on the Virtual LAN is assigned with a private IPaddress with default value of 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.2.254. These PCs are not accessible bythe outside word but they can communicate with the outside world through the public IP168.111.2.1.
ADSL Router User Manual68Private IP AddressPrivate IP addresses are also LAN IP addresses, but are considered “illegal” IP addresses to theInternet. They are private to an enterprise while still permitting full network layer connectivitybetween all hosts inside an enterprise as well as all public hosts of different enterprises.The ADSL Router uses private IP addresses by assigning them to the LAN that cannot bedirectly accessed by the Internet or remote server. To access the Internet, private networkshould have an agent to translate the private IP address to public IP address.Public IP AddressPublic IP addresses are LAN IP addresses that can be considered “legal” for the Internet,because they can be recognized and accessed by any device on the other side of the DSLconnection. In most cases they are allocated by your ISP.If you are given a range of fixed IP addresses, then one can be assigned to the router and theothers to network devices on the LAN, such as computer workstations, ftp servers, and webservers.PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit)A PVC is a logical point-to-point circuit between customer sites. PVCs are low-delay circuitsbecause routing decisions do not need to be made along the way. Permanent means that thecircuit is preprogrammed by the carrier as a path through the network. It does not need to beset up or torn down for each session.RIP (Routing Information Protocol)RIP is a routing protocol that uses the distance-vector routing algorithms to calculate least-hops routes to a destination. It is used on the Internet and is common in the NetWareenvironment. It exchanges routing information with other routers. It includes V1, V2 andV1&V2, which controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets over Ethernet.UDP (User Datagram Protocol)UDP is a connectionless transport service that dispenses with the reliability services providedby TCP. UDP gives applications a direct interface with IP and the ability to address a particularapplication process running on a host via a port number without setting up a connectionsession.Virtual ServerYou can designate virtual servers, e.g., a FTP, web, telnet or mail server, on your local networkand make them accessible to the outside world. A virtual server means that it is not a dedicatedserver -- that is, the entire computer is not dedicated to running on the public network but inthe private network.VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) & VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier)A VPI is a 8-bit field while VCI is a 16-bit field in the ATM cell header. A VPI identifies a linkformed by a virtual path and a VCI identifies a channel within a virtual path. In this way, thecells belonging to the same connection can be distinguished. A unique and separate VPI/VCIidentifier is assigned in advance to indicate which type of cell is following, unassigned cells,physical layer OAM cells, metasignalling channel or a generic broadcast signaling channel. YourISP should supply you with the values.
