1 Chapter 1: Introduction Introduction to your Router Thank you for purchasing the BiPAC 6200NXL Router. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that combines a Broadband modem, Ethernet network switch and two USB ports to provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over a 3G broadband connection. The BiPAC 6200NXL supports 3G, PPP over Ethernet, DHCP Client and Fixed IP address to establish a connection with your ISP. The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection, the BiPAC 6200NXL allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access simultaneously. Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by outside users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address Translation (NAT), it also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming data packets are monitored and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block internal users from accessing the Internet. The BiPAC 6200NXL provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IP addresses making them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. To ensure that games and other Internet applications run properly, you can open specific ports for outside users to access internal services on your network. The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow multiple users to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set local machines as a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the DHCP server and reboot. Each time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it and assigns an IP address to instantly connect it to the LAN. For advanced users, Virtual Service (port mapping) functions allow the product to provide limited visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. For instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the router and then incoming requests for web pages that are received by the router can be rerouted to your dedicated local web server, even though the server now has a different IP address.

2 Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you can set the router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from hackers. Features 3G 3 G-based Internet connections (requires an additional 3G USB modem), with automatic fail-over to ensure an always-on Internet connection in the event that one of your Internet services fails. The setup of 3G is simplified by the web browser-based configuration. It is easy for you to access to the Internet wherever a 3G connection is available, you can even share your Internet connection with others, no matter whether you’re in a meeting, or taking a cross-country train trip. 802.11n Wireless AP with WPA Support With integrated 802.11n Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and easy access among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection with single device simplicity, and as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 300 Mbps 802.11n data rate, it also interoperates backward with existing 802.11g and 802.11b equipment. The Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) supported features enhance the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN. Fast Ethernet Switch A 3-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built-in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports, with auto detection allowing you to use either straight or cross-over Ethernet cables. EWAN BiPAC 6200NXL offers a WAN port to connect to Cable Modems and fibre optic lines. This alternative, yet faster method to connect to the internet will provide users more flexibility to get online. USB Server BiPAC 6200NXL supports two USB 2.0 ports, Using the integrated USB 2.0 ports, the device offers users to share a blistering wired or 3G-based wireless Internet connection over 3G networks. Printer, Webcam and HDD can also connect to USB port, The BiPAC 6200NXL can also serve as

3 multi-function servers with its USB port to help you set up your own network. You can share the printer in your office network, monitor your house with a Webcam and share files with your colleagues or friends. If you need to handle office business, home security and personal entertainment, the BiPAC 6200NXL can connect with your network devices using the built-in USB port. 3G Management Center Monitoring your 3G connection status is easy with the BiPAC 6200NXL. The unique Billion 3G Management Center is a web-based utility tool, displaying visually its current 3G-signal status for users to maximize their connection. Users can monitor their bandwidth with current upload and download speed. This tool also calculates the total amount of hours or data traffic used per month, allowing users to manage their 3G monthly subscriptions. The web-based user interface of the BiPAC 6200NXL makes it extremely easy for users to install and manage their network. Supporting DHCP client and server, the router enables system administrators to easily integrate this router into existing network environments and manage IP assignment without the need to reconfigure other stations. Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection The router supports PPP over Ethernet, DHCP Client and Fixed IP address to establish a connection with an ISP. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs from many different vendors, and it makes setting up a network simple and affordable. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net Meeting or MSN Messenger. Network Address Translation Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others. Firewall NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the Internet, like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.

4 Domain Name System Relay Domain Name System (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a user-friendly name such as www.google.com with an IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server to the router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router is forwarded to the real DNS on the outside network. Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. To use the service, you must first apply for an account from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/. PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) The BiPAC 6200NXL provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You get greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same ISP account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for the local computer. Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided. Quality of Service (QoS) QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or management information move through the router at lightning speed, even under heavy load. The QoS features are configurable by Internal IP address, External IP address, protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router, to ensure P2P users don’t saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds. Virtual Server You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The router detects an incoming service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For example, you can assign a PC in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the outside Internet network. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP addresses, including

5 subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local computers. This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network. Rich Packet Filtering This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control. Web-based GUI A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and manage this product. Firmware Upgradeable You can upgrade the router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI. Operating Environment • Operating temperature: 00C ~ 400C • Storage temperature: -20OC ~ 700C • Humidity: 20 - 95% non-condensing

63 DHCP Server You can disable or enable the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or enable the router’s DHCP relay functions. The DHCP protocol allows your router to dynamically assign IP addresses to PCs on your network if they are configured to obtain IP addresses automatically. DHCP Server Mode: Disable To disable the router’s DHCP Server, check Disabled and then click Apply. When the DHCP Server is disabled, you will need to manually assign a fixed IP address to each PC on your network, and set the default gateway for each PC to the IP address of the router (the default is 192.168.1.254).

64 DHCP Server Mode: DHCP Server To configure the router’s DHCP Server, check DHCP Server. You can then configure parameters of the DHCP Server including the IP pool (starting IP address and ending IP address to be allocated to PCs on your network), lease time for each assigned IP address (the period of time the IP address assigned will be valid), DNS IP address and the gateway IP address. These details are sent to the DHCP client (i.e. your PC) when it requests an IP address from the DHCP server. Click Apply to enable this function. If you check “Use Router as a DNS Server”, the 3G Router performs the domain name lookup, finds the IP address from the outside network automatically and forwards it back to the requesting PC in the LAN (your Local Area Network). DHCP Server Mode: DHCP Relay If you check DHCP Relay and then you must enter the IP address of the DHCP server which assigns an IP address back to the DHCP client in the LAN. Use this function only if advised to do so by your network administrator or ISP. Click Apply to enable this function.

Requirements for APN assignment varies between different service providers. Most service providers have an internet portal which they connect a DHCP Server to, giving you access to the internet i.e. Some 3G operators use the APN ‘internet’ for their portal. The default value of APN is “internet”. Username: Enter the username provided by your service provider. Password: Enter the password provided by your service provider. Auth. Protocol: Manually specify CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) or PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) if you know which authentication type the server is using (when acting as a client), or the authentication type you want the clients to use when tehy are connecting to you (when acting as a server). When using PAP, the password is sent unencrypted, while CHAP encrypts the password before sending, and also allows for challenges at different periods to ensure that an intruder has not replaced the client. MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. The size of the largest datagram (excluding media-specific headers) that IP will attempt to send through the interface.

71 PIN: PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. A PIN code is a numeric value used in certain systems as a password to gain access, and authentication. In mobile phones a PIN code locks the SIM card until you enter the correct code. If you enter the PIN code incorrectly into the phone 3 times in a row, then the SIM card will be blocked and a PUK code will be required from your network / service provider to unlock it. Note: If you enter an incorrect PIN code three times in a row, your SIM card will be blocked. In this case, please enter your PUK code (it can be supplied by your service provider) and then re-enter your PIN. Connection: • Always On: The router will make UMTS/GPRS call when starting up. Enabling Always On, will give you an option of Keep Alive. • Connect on Demand: If you want to make UMTS/GPRS call only when there is a packet re- questing access to the Internet (i.e. when a program on your computer attempts to access the Internet). In this mode, you must set Idle Timeout value at same time. Enabling Connect on Demand will give you an option of Idle Timeout. Idle Timeout: Auto-disconnect the connection when there is no activity on this call for a predetermined period of time. The default value is 10 seconds. Obtain DNS Automatically: Select this checkbox to use DNS. Primary DNS/ Secondary DNS: Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask. Note: If you don’t know how to set these values and please keep them untouched.

72 Click Usage Allowance to go to the Usage Allowance configuration page. In order to query online time or volume used, you can set the following options.

74 System There are five items within the System section: Time Zone, Firmware Upgrade, Backup/Restore, Restart, User Management and Mail Alert. Time Zone The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server outside your network. Choose your local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router retrieves the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified. If you prefer to specify an SNTP server other than those in the drop-down list, simply enter its IP address as shown above. Your ISP may provide an SNTP server for you to use. Resync Period (in minutes) is the periodic interval the router waits before it resynchronizes the router’s time with that of the specified SNTP server. To avoid unnecessarily increasing the load on your specified SNTP server you should keep the poll interval as high as possible – at the absolute minimum every few hours or even days.

75 Do not power down the router or interrupt the firmware upgrade while it is still in process. Improper operation may damage the router. Please see section 2.4 for emergency recovery procedures. Firmware Upgrade Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified. Your router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes. Clicking on Browse allows you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded to your PC. Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the firmware in your router. Restart Device with: To choose “Factory Default Settings” or “Current Settings” which uses your current setting on the new firmware (it is highly advised to use Factory Default Settings over Current Settings for a clean firmware upgrade).

92 Printer Server Printer Server provides a simple and efficient network printing solution. Connect one end of the printer server to the printer and one end to the network, then anywhere the printer is in the network, users can print easily. IPP, short for Internet Printing Protocol, provides a set of network printing services which give printing a more efficient and secure environment. LPD, stands for Line Printer Daemon. Its function is to wait for the printing tasks transmitted by the LPR(line printer remote). When the LPD receives a print job, it first gets the print jobs temporarily stored in the print queue. The print queue is a file directory and many of the LPD print job are waiting here for processing. When the printing device is idle, LPD remove the print job from the print queue and pass it to the printer task to print. Here enable IPP Printer Server if you want to use IPP Printer or enable LPD Printer Server if you want to use LPD Printer. Also you can enable the two. But LPD printer can only be used in LAN, if you want to printe from WAN, please enable IPP Printer Access From WAN. Enable IPP Printer Server: Enable or Disable IPP Printer Server function. Default setting is set to disable. Enable LPD Printer Server: Enable or Disable LPD Printer Server function. Default setting is set to disable.

98 When using Virtual Servers (port mapping) your PCs are exposed to the ports specified opened in your firewall packet filter settings. Firewall and Access Control Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet. See the WAN configuration section for more details on NAT. Firewall: Prevents access from outside your network. NAT natural firewall: This masks LAN users’ IP addresses, which are invisible to outside users on the Internet, making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. This natural firewall is on when the NAT function is enabled.

99 Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules prevent unauthorized computers or applications accessing your local network from the Internet. Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent, and log malicious attacks. MAC Filter rules: Prevents unauthorized computers accessing the Internet. URL Filter: Blocks PCs on your local network from unwanted websites. A detailed explanation of each of the following five items appears in the Firewall section below: Packet Filter, MAC Address Filter, Intrusion detection, Block WAN PING and URL Filter.

100 Packet Filter Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specified internal/external users (IP address) from Internet access, or you can disable specific service requests (Port number) to /from Internet. This configuration program allows you to set up to 6 different filter rules for different users based on their IP addresses or their network Port number. The relationship among all filters is “or” operation, which means that the router checks these different filter rules one by one, starting from the first rule. As long as one of the rules is satisfied, the specified action will be taken. Rule Name: Users-define description to identify this entry. The maximum name length is 32 characters, and then can choose application that they want from list box. Internal IP Address / External IP Address: This is the Address-Filter used to allow or block traffic to/from particular IP address (es). Input the range you want to filter out. If you leave empty or 0.0.0.0, it means any IP address. Protocol: Specify the packet type (TCP, UDP, ICMP, etc.) that the rule applies to. Select TCP if you wish to search for the connection-based application service on the remote server using the port number. Or select UDP if you want to search for the connectionless application service on the remote server using the port number. Action: If a packet matches this filter rule, Forward (allows the packets to pass) or Drop (disallow the packets to pass) this packet. Internal Port: This Port or Port Range defines the ports allowed to be used by the Remote/WAN to connect to the application. Default is set from range 0 ~ 65535. It is recommended that this option be configured by an advanced user. External Port: This is the Port or Port Range that defines the application. Direction: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for incoming packets. Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.

101 Log: Choose “log” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to a packet. Add: Click this button to add a new packet filter rule and the added rule will appear at the bottom table. Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit, and then click “Edit”. Delete: Check the Rule No. you wish to delete, and then click “Delete”. If the DHCP server option is enabled, you must be very careful in assigning IP addresses of a filtered private IP range to avoid conflicts because you do not know which PC in the LAN is assigned which IP address. The easiest and safest way is that the filtered IP address is assigned to a specific PC that is not allowed to access an outside resource such as the Internet. You configure the filtered IP address manually for this PC, but it stays in the same subnet with the router. Attention

102 MAC Filter A MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identifier for each PC on your network’s interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card). Using your router’s MAC Address Filter function, you can configure to block specific machines from accessing your LAN. There are no pre-defined MAC address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your requirements. Action：select to determine how to do with the filter. • Disable: to disable the MAC filter function. • Allow: to enable the MAC filter function and allow the host of the following set MAC addresses to access. • Block: to enable the MAC filter function and block the host of the following set MAC addresses to access. MAC Address: Enter the MAC addresses you wish to manage. Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.

103 Intrusion Detection Check Enable if you wish to detect intruders accessing your computer without permission. The router automatically detects and blocks a DoS (Denial of Service) attack if a user enables this function. This kind of attack is not to access confidential data on the network; instead, it aims to disrupt specific equipment or the entire network. If this happens, users will have trouble accessing the network resources. Intrusion Detection: Check Enable if you wish to detect intruders accessing your computer without permission. Maximum TCP Open Handshaking Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether a SYN Flood attempt is occurring or not. Default value is 100 TCP SYN per seconds. Maximum Ping Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether an ICMP Echo Storm is occurring or not. Default value is 15 ICMP Echo Requests (PING) per second. Maximum ICMP Count: This is a threshold to decide whether an ICMP flood is occurring or not. Default value is 100 ICMP packets per seconds except ICMP Echo Requests (PING). Log: Check Log if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to the Intrusion Detection.

104 For SYN Flood, ICMP Echo Storm and ICMP flood, IDS will just warn the user in the Event Log but it will not be able to protect against such attacks. Hacker attack types recognized by the IDS Intrusion Name Detect Parameter Blacklist Type of Block Duration Drop Packet Show Log Ascend Kill Ascend Kill data Src IP DoS Yes Yes WinNuke TCP Port 135, 137~139, Flag: URG Src IP DoS Yes Yes Smurf ICMP type 8 Des IP is broadcast Dst IP Victim Protection Yes Yes Land attack SrcIP = DstIP Yes Yes Echo/CharGen Scan UDP Echo Port and CharGen Port Yes Yes Echo Scan UDP Dst Port = Echo(7) Src IP Scan Yes Yes CharGen Scan UDP Dst Port = CharGen(19) Src IP Scan Yes Yes X’mas Tree Scan TCP Flag: X’mas Src IP Scan Yes Yes IMAP SYN/FIN Scan TCP Flag: SYN/FINDstPort: IMAP(143)SrcPort: 0 or 65535 Src IP Scan Yes Yes SYN/FIN/RST/ACK Scan TCP, No Existing session And Scan Hosts more than five.

105 Block WAN PING Check Enable if you wish to exclude outside PING requests from reaching this router. URL Filter URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.example.com ) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular websites from their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet your requirements. Keywords Filtering Allows blocking by specific keywords within a particular URL rather than having to specify a complete URL (e.g. to block any image called “advertisement.gif”). When enabled, your specified keywords list is checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to determine if the connection attempt should be blocked. Note that the URL filter blocks web browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only. For example, the URL http://www.abc.com/abcde.html would be dropped since the keyword “abcde” occurs in the URL.

106 Domains Filtering Checks the domain name in URLs accessed against your list of domains to block or allow. If it matches, the URL request is sent (Trusted) or dropped (Forbidden). The checking procedure is: 1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection attempt is sent to the remote web server. 2. If not, it is checked with the forbidden list. If present, the connection attempt is dropped. 3. If the packet matches neither of the above, it is sent to the remote web server. 4. Please be note that the completed URL, “www” + domain name shall be specified. For example to block traffic to www.google.com.au, enter “www.google” or “www.google.com” Restrict URL Features This function enhances the restriction to your URL rules. ~ Block Java Applet: Blocks Web content which includes the Java Applet to prevent someone who wants to damage your system via the standard HTTP protocol. ~ Block ActiveX: Blocks ActiveX ~ Block Cookies: Blocks Cookies ~ Block Proxy: Blocks Proxy Except IP Address Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section. Log: Click “Log” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to the URL Filter.

112 QoS (Quality of Service) Quality of Service Introduction If you’ve ever found your ‘net’ speed has slowed to a crawl because another family member is using a P2P file sharing program, you’ll understand why the Quality of Service features in the routers is such a breakthrough for home users and office users. QoS: Keeping Your Net Connection Fast and Responsive Configurable by internal IP address, external IP address, protocol, and port, the Quality of Service (QoS) gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by the router, ensuring bandwidth-consumption data like gaming packets, latency-sensitive application like voice, or even mission critical files, move through the router at lightning speed, even under heavy load. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router. In addition, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds. QoS Setup Please choose the QoS in the Configuration item of the left window as depicted below. After clicking the QoS item, you can Add/Edit/Delete a QoS policy. This page will show the brief information for policies you have added or edited. This page will also display the total available (Non-assigned) bandwidth, in percentage, can be assigned. Application: A name that identifies an existing policy. Direction: The traffic flow direction to be controlled by the QoS policy. There are two settings to be provided in the Router: ~ LAN to WAN: You want to control the traffic flow from the local network to the outside world. e.g., you have a FTP server inside the local network and you want to have a limited traffic rate controlled by the QoS policy. So, you need to add a policy with LAN to WAN direction setting. ~ WAN to LAN: Control Traffic flow from the WAN to LAN. The connection maybe either issued from

113 LAN to WAN or WAN to LAN.) Protocol: The Protocol will be controlled. For GRE protocol, there is no need to specify the IP addresses or Application ports in this page. For other protocols, at least one value shall be given. ~ ANY: No protocol type is specified. ~ TCP ~ UDP ~ ICMP ~ GRE DSCP Marking: Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), it is the first 6 bits in the ToS byte. DSCP Marking allows users to classify traffic based on DSCP value and send packets to next Router. Note: To be sure the router(s) in the backbones network have the capability in executing and checking the DSCP through-out the QoS network.

114 The DSCP Mapping Table DSCP Mapping Table 3G Router Standard DSCP Disabled None Best Effort Best Effort (000000) Premium Express Forwarding (101110) Gold service (L) Class 1, Gold (001010) Gold service (M) Class 1, Silver (001100) Gold service (H) Class 1, Bronze (001110) Silver service (L) Class 2, Gold (010010) Silver service (M) Class 2, Silver (010100) Silver service (H) Class 2, Bronze (010110) Bronze service (L) Class 3, Gold (011010) Bronze service (M) Class 3, Silver (011100) Bronze service (H) Class 3, Bronze (011110) Rate Type: 2 types are provided: ~ Limited (Maximum): Specify a limited data rate for this policy. It also is the maximal rate for this policy. As above FTP server example, you may want to “throttle” the outgoing FTP speed to 20% of 256K and limit to it, you may use this type. ~ Guaranteed (Minimum): Specify a minimal data rate for this policy. For example, you want to provide a guaranteed data rate for your outside customers to access your internal FTP server with, say at least, 20% of your total bandwidth. You can use this type. Then, if there is available bandwidth that is not used, it will be given to this policy by following priority assignment. Ratio: Assign the data ratio for this policy to be controlled. For examples, we want to only allow 20% of the total data transfer rate for the LAN-to-WAN direction to be used for FTP server. Then we can specify here with data ratio = 20. Priority: Specify the priority for the bandwidth that is not used. For examples, you may specify two different QoS policies for different applications. Both applications need a minimal bandwidth and need more bandwidth, beside the assigned one, if there is any available/non-used one available. So, you may specify which application can have higher priority to acquire the non-used bandwidth. ~ High ~ Normal: The default is normal priority. ~ Low

115 For the sample priority assignment for different policies, it is served in a First-In-First-Out way. Internal IP Address: The IP address values for Local LAN machines you want to control. (For IP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the source IP address. For IP packages from WAN to LAN, it is the destination IP address.) Internal Port: The Application port values for local LAN machines you want to control. (For TCP/UDP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the source port value. For TCP/UDP packets from WAN to LAN, it is the destination port value.) External IP Address: The IP address values for Remote WAN machines you want to control. (For IP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the destination IP address. For IP packages from WAN to LAN, it is the source IP address.) External Ports: The Application port values for remote machines you want to control. (For TCP/UDP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the destination port value. For TCP/UDP packets from WAN to LAN, it is the source port value.) Time Schedule: Scheduling your prioritization policy.

116 Virtual Server In TCP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can locate them. If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from other machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that can accept incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant messaging applications and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network Address Translation), then you need to configure your router to forward these incoming connection attempts using specific ports to the PC on your network running the application. You also need to use port forwarding if you wish to host an online game server. The reason is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address is used by and points to your router, which needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by your PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for information on NAT. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the central coordinator for the assignment of unique parameter values for Internet protocols. Port numbers range from 0 to 65535, but only port numbers 0 to 1023 are reserved for privileged services and are designated as “well-known ports”. The registered ports are numbered from 1024 through 49151. The remaining ports, referred to as dynamic ports, or private ports, are numbered from 49152 through 65535. Examples of well-known and registered port numbers are shown below, for further information, please see IANA’s website at: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers

117 Well-known and Registered Ports Port Number Protocol Description 20 TCP FTP Data 21 TCP FTP Control 22 TCP & UDP SSH Remote Login Protocol 23 TCP Telnet 25 TCP SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) 53 TCP & UDP DNS (Domain Name Server) 69 UDP TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) 80 TCP World Wide Web HTTP 110 TCP POP3 (Post Office Protocol Version 3) 119 TCP NEWS (Network News Transfer Protocol) 123 UDP NTP (Network Time Protocol) 161 TCP SNMP 443 TCP & UDP HTTPS 1503 TCP T.120 1720 TCP H.323 4000 TCP ICQ 7070 UDP RealAudio

118 Port Mapping Application: Select the service you wish to configure. Protocol: Automatic when you choose Application from list-box or select a protocol type which you want. External Port & Internal Port: Enter the public port number & range you wish to configure. Internal IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which requests from the specified port is forwarded. Add: Click to add a new virtual server rule. Click again and the next figure appears. Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit and then click “Edit/Delete”. Delete: Check the Rule No. you wish to delete then click “Edit/Delete”.

119 Since NAT acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from access by outside users, as all incoming connection attempts point to your router unless you specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network. When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”. You can set up a local server with a specific port number for the service to use, e.g. web/HTTP (port 80), FTP (port 21), Telnet (port 23), SMTP (port 25), or POP3 (port 110). When an incoming access request to the router for a specified port is received, it is forwarded to the corresponding internal server. For example, if you set the port number 80 (Web/HTTP) to be mapped to the IP Address 192.168.1.2, then all incoming HTTP requests from outside users are forwarded to the local server (PC) with the IP address of 192.168.1.2. If the port is not listed as a predefined application, you need to add it manually. In addition to specifying the port number used, you also need to specify the protocol used. The protocol is determined by the particular application. Most applications use TCP or UDP, however you can specify other protocols using the drop-down Protocol menu. Setting the protocol to “all” causes all incoming connection attempts using all protocols on all port numbers to be forwarded to the specified IP address.

120 DMZ The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets are checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms, it is then passed to the DMZ host when a packet received does not use a port number in use by any other Virtual Server entries. Internal IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which will be the DMZ Host. Time Schedule: A self defined time period. You may specify a time schedule. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section. Port: The except port number. Default is set from range 1 ~ 65535.You can select from the drop down list and also can enter manually. Protocol: Select the TCP or UDP protocol from the drop down list. Description: The description of the port’s function. Add/Delete Except Ports 1. Enter except port number in the port field or choose from the drop down list. Select the port and describe the port.

121 2. Click Add. The new except port will display below. 3. Click Delete to delete the one which you want to remove from the except list. Using port mapping does have security implications, since outside users are able to connect to PCs on your network. For this reason you are advised to use specific Virtual Server entries just for the ports your application requires instead of simply using DMZ or creating a Virtual Server entry for “All” protocols, as doing so results in all connection attempts to your public IP address accessing the specified PC.

122 Wake on LAN Wake on LAN (WOL, sometimes WoL) is an Ethernet computer networking standard that allows a computer to be turned on or woken up remotely by a network message. Select: Select MAC address of the computer that you want to wake up or turn on remotely. Add: After selecting, click Add then you can perform the Wake-up action. Edit/Delete: Click to edit or delete the selected MAC address. Ready: “Yes“ indicating the remote computer is ready for your waking up. “No“ indicating the machine is not ready for your waking up. Delete: Delete the selected MAC address.

124 Advanced Configuration options within the Advanced section are for users who wish to take advantage of the more advanced features of the router. Users who do not understand the features should not attempt to reconfigure their router, unless advised to do so by support staff. There are seven items within the Advanced section: Static Route, Static ARP, Dynamic DNS, Device Management, IGMP, SNMP Access Control and Remote Access.

125 Static Route Destination: The destination subnet IP address. Netmask: Subnet mask of the destination IP addresses based on above destination. Gateway: The gateway IP address to which packets are forwarded. Interface: Select the interface through which packets are forwarded. Cost: Represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be precise, but it must be between 0 and 65535. Static ARP IP Address: Fill in the IP address of the host computer that is sending the data packet. MAC Address: Fill in the MAC address of the computer that the incoming data packets are to be forwarded.

126 Dynamic DNS The Dynamic DNS function lets you alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, so if your ISP does not assign you a static IP address you can still use a domain name. This is especially useful for hosting servers via your 3G connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP. You first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using their website, for example http://www.dyndns.org/. Disable: Check to disable the Dynamic DNS function. Enable: Check to enable the Dynamic DNS function. The fields following are activated and required. Dynamic DNS Server: Select the DDNS service you have established an account with. Wildcard: Select this check box to enable the DYNDNS Wildcard. Domain Name, Username and Password: Enter your registered domain name and your username and password for this service. Period: Set the time period between updates, for the Router to exchange information with the DDNS server. In addition to updating periodically as per your settings, the router will perform an update when your dynamic IP address changes.

127 Device Management The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router’s security options and device monitoring features. Embedded Web Server HTTP Port: The port number of the router’s embedded web server (for web-based configuration uses. The default value is the standard HTTP port, 80. You may specify an alternative if, for example, you are running a web server on a PC within your LAN. For Example: User A changes HTTP port number to 100, specifies their own IP address of 192.168.1.55, and sets the logout time to be 100 minutes. The router only allows User A access from the IP address 192.168.1.55 to logon to the Web GUI by typing: http://192.168.1.254:100 in their web browser. After 100 minutes, the device automatically logs out User A. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device. Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP. Disable: Check to disable the router’s UPnP functionality. Enable: Check to enable the router’s UPnP functionality. UPnP Port: The Default setting is 2800. It is highly recommended you use this port value. If this value conflicts with other ports already in use you may wish to change the port.

IGMP Snooping: Allowing switched Ethernet / Wireless to check and make correct forwarding decisions. Default is set to Disable.

135 SNMP Access Control Software on a PC within the LAN is required in order to utilize this function - Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP V1 and V2 Read Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Read Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, user obtains this IP address will be able to view the data. Write Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Write Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data. Trap Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Trap Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be sent SNMP Traps. SNMP V3 Specify a name and password for authentication. And define the access right from identified IP address. Once the authentication has succeeded, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data. SNMP Version: SNMPV2c and SNMPv3 SNMPv2c is the combination of the enhanced protocol features of SNMPv2 without the SNMPv2 security. The "c" comes from the fact that SNMPv2c uses the SNMPv1 community string paradigm for "security", but is widely accepted as the SNMPv2 standard. SNMPv3 is a strong authentication mechanism, authorization with fine granularity for remote monitoring. Traps supported: Cold Start, Authentication Failure. The following MIBs are supported:

136 From RFC 1213 (MIB-II): ; System group ; Interfaces group ; Address Translation group ; IP group ; ICMP group ; TCP group ; UDP group : EGP (not applicable) ; Transmission ; SNMP group From RFC1650 (EtherLike-MIB): ; dot3Stats From RFC 1493 (Bridge MIB): ; dot1dBase group ; dot1dTp group ; dot1dStp group (if configured as spanning tree) From RFC 1471 (PPP/LCP MIB): ; pppLink group : pppLqr group From RFC 1472 (PPP/Security MIB): ; PPP Security Group) From RFC 1473 (PPP/IP MIB): ; PPP IP Group From RFC 1474 (PPP/Bridge MIB): ; PPP Bridge Group From RFC1573 (IfMIB): ; ifMIBObjects Group From RFC 1907 (SNMPv2): only snmpSetSerialNo OID

137 Remote Access Remote Access Control Enable: Select Enable to allow management access from remote side (mostly from internet).

140 Logout To exit the router’s web interface, choose Logout. Please ensure that you have saved the configuration settings before you logout. Be aware that the router is restricted to only one PC accessing the configuration web pages at a time. Once a PC has logged into the web interface, other PCs cannot get access until the current PC has logged out of the web interface. If the previous PC forgets to logout, the second PC can access the page after a user-defined period, by default 3 minutes. You can modify this value using the Advanced - Device Management section of the web interface. Please see the Advanced section of this manual for more information.

141 Chapter 6: Troubleshooting If your 3G Router is not functioning properly, you can refer first to this chapter for simple troubleshooting before contacting your service provider support. This can save you time and effort but if symptoms persist, consult your service provider. Problems starting up the router Problem Corrective Action None of the LEDs are on when you turn on the router. Check the connection between the adapter and the router. If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In this case you should contact technical support. Problems with the LAN Interface Problem Corrective Action Can’t ping any PCs on the LAN. Check the Ethernet LEDs on the front panel. The LED should be on for a port that has a PC connected. If it is off, check the cables between your router and the PC. Make sure you have uninstalled any software firewall for troubleshooting. Verify that the IP address and the subnet mask are consistent between the router and the workstations. Problems with the FTP Server Problem Corrective Action FTP client which behind firewall remote access the router fail Because the firewall has NAT function, this make can’t access the router successful. There are two suggestions to solve the problem. 1. Set the FTP port as 21, you can access the router successful 2. Use FTP client software (such as flashfxp V3.6), set the connect behaviour to be “active mode” you can also access the router successful.

$142 Problems with the Samba Problem Corrective Action Can’t change account to access Samba First, use net use command to see the current network connection. Such as we find the resource is: \\192.168.1.254\IPC$ then use net use \\192.168.1.254\IPC$ /del to delete the connection which need password. Reaccess and you can change the account. Can’t access the shared directory after format the disk For the samba user, the shared directories are stored in the hard disk. There is a .smb_config file under the disk’s root directory. If you have removed this file or format the disk, you must reset the shared directory. Problems with the Printer Problem Corrective Action Can’t access the printer Make sure you have added printer correctly, please reference Set up of Printer client. The printer can’t print though the printer have been added correctly The router can support Ink-jet Printer well. For laser printer, because of its operation ways, maybe can’t normal printing.
