Security
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. 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.
Above is the listing table. Click Add to add new configurations.
Filter name: a user-defined filter name or you can select from the drop-down menu the application,
and leave the automatically generated name as the Filter name.
IP Version: Select the IP Version， IPv4 or IPv6.
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, it means
any IP address.
Protocol: Specify the packet type (TCP/UDP，TCP, UDP, ICMP, RAW and Any) that the rule applies
83
to. Only when RAW is selected, then you can type the protocol number (0-254) to identify the
protocol that you want the filter applies to. When Any is selected, it means the filter will applies to
any protocol.
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 1 ~ 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. Default is set from range 1
~ 65535.
Action: If a packet matches this filter rule, forward (allows the packets to pass) or drop (disallow
the packets to pass) this packet.
Direction: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for incoming packets.
Set up
Select the application you want to filter, input the information or leave it as default according to
yourself.
Press Apply to confirm and the item will be listed in the following table.
84
Remove
Check the checkbox, press Remove, the item will be removed.
Reorder
When there are more than one Filter application, you can reorder them to the priority you want. The
former is prior to the latter one.
Click
or
to change the priority of the filter, then press
85
to confirm.
Parental Control
Time Restriction
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 the network to block specific machines from accessing
your LAN during the specified time.
Action:
Disable: disable the Time Restriction function.
Allow: allow the members in the following table to access the router.
Block: block the members listed in the following table from accessing the router.
Note: here users should add the rules first, then select the wanted action.
Click Add to add the rules.
Username: user-defined name.
MAC Address: enter the MAC address(es) you want to allow or block to access the router and LAN.
The format of MAC address could be: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx or xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
Days of the week: select the days of a week this rule takes efforts.
86
Start Time: enter the start time of each day in hh:mm format. Leaving it empty means 00:00.
End Time: enter the end time of each day in hh:mm format. Leaving it empty means 23:59.
Click Apply to confirm your settings. The following prompt window will appear to remind you of the
attention.
If you needn’t this rule, you can check the box, press Remove, it will be OK.
URL Filter
URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.abcde.com or
http://www.example.com) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing
particular websites by their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to
meet your requirements.
URL Filtering: select to enable or disable URL Filtering feature.
87
Keywords Filtering: Allow blocking against 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 will be checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to
determine if the connection attempt should be blocked. Please note that the URL filter blocks web
browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only.
Domains Filtering: This function checks the whole URL address but not the IP address against
your list of domains to block or allow. If it is matched, the URL request will either be sent (Trusted) or
dropped (Forbidden).
Restrict URL Features: Click Block Java Applet to filter web access with Java Applet components.
Click Block ActiveX to filter web access with ActiveX components. Click Block Cookie to filter web
access with Cookie components. Click Block Proxy to filter web proxy access.

QoS - Quality of Service
QoS helps you to control the data upload traffic of each application from LAN (Ethernet) to WAN
(Internet). It facilitates you the features to control the quality and speed of throughput for each
application when the system is running with full upstream load.
Quality of Service: Check to activate this function and the following field will be available.
If Enable QoS checkbox is selected, choose a default DSCP mark to automatically mark incoming
traffic without reference to a particular classifier.
If Enable Qos checkbox is not selected, all QoS will be disabled for all interfaces.
Select Default DSCP Mark: Select the default DSCP mark from the list-box. Differentiated Services
Code Point (DSCP) is the first 6 bits in the ToS byte. DSCP Mark allows users to classify the traffic
of the application to be executed according to the DSCP value. The default DSCP mark is used to
mark all egress packets that do not match any classification rules.
Note: Before configuring Queue config and QoS Classification section, you must enable QoS
function, for the reason that the queues’ activation will depend on this, the classification will also
depend on this.
The corresponding IP precedence and DSCP mapping table is listed below.

Queue Config
Queue is a technology of managing congestion providing precautions with the packets storing and
scheduling. Queue Config allows you to configure a QoS queue entry and assign it to a specific
network interface. Each queue entry set here will be used by the classfier to place ingress packets
appropriately.
Note: the interface set in the WAN> WAN Interface will be list as Default Queue here, and the
parameters listed above can be configured there. For detail, please turn to WAN > WAN Interface
section for help. You can also add other queues to the ATM and PTM interfaces despite of the
default queue.
And Wireless Service queue will be enabled by default if you enable wireless. Also if you enable
virtual APs, the corresponding WMM service queues will be enabled as well.
Name: the queue name.
Key: the item number.
Interface: the queue interface.
Scheduler Algorithm: the QoS Scheduler Algorithm, SP(Strict Priority) or WFQ(Weight Fair
Queuing)
Precedence: the priority identification.
Weight: the weight value, 1-63. the highest is 63.
PTM Priority: the PTM priority, normal or high.
Enable: check the enable check-box, then press Enable to activate the queue. If you want to
disable this queue, you can uncheck the corresponding check-box and press Enable, the queue will
be disabled.
If the queue is enabled, you will see a tick, like

classes.
Rule Order: Select the priority for this class rule.
Rule Status: Select Enable to activate this class rule.
Specify Classification Criteria
The following parameters are to be classification rule. Enter or select appropriate parameters on the
following fields. A blank criterion indicates it is not used for classification.
Class Interface: select the interface you want to be the one aspect of the classification criteria.
Here ”LAN->WAN” and ”WAN->LAN” can be viewed as IP QoS, the others can be viewed as portedbased QoS, which means that control the QoS of certain port such. For example, if you select P1
port, then criteria applies to this port, that is ported-based QoS.
Entry Type: select the application type.
Source/destination MAC Address: enter the source and destination MAC address as the QoS
Classification Criteria. The format should be xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx or xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
Source/destination MAC Mask: MAC mask is similar to IP mask, and the format also should be
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx or xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx. It is used to hide some information of the MAC address. ‘1’,
means needed and ‘0’ means ignored. For example, MAC address e0:3b:4a:c2:ca:e2 and MAC
mask ff:ff:ff:00:00:00, that is whatever MAC address while matches e0:3b:4a:XX:XX:XX, will be
accepted.
Specify Classification Results
Enter or select appropriate parameters you want for the packets matched the above classification
criteria in the following fields. You have to choose a classification queue. A blank mark or tag value
means no change.
Assign Classification Queue: assign classification queue from the drop-down box. If you want to
select the queue, you should make sure the specific queue is enabled in Queue Config section.
Mark Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP): select the DSCP you want to be the new DSCP
for the packets which matched the above classification criteria.
Mark 802.1p priority: it is a LAN Layer 2 QoS/CoS Protocol for Traffic Prioritization. It is
interoperable with IEEE 802.1Q. 802.1p has 8 kinds of priority.
Tag VLAN ID: enter the tag VLAN ID, 0-4094, used to determine the VLAN the frame belongs to.

traffic across your network. With each routing rule created, you can specifically assign the
destination where the traffic will be routed to.
Above is the static route listing table, click Add to create static routing.
IP Version: select the IP version, IPv4 or IPv6.
Destination IP Address / Prefix Length: enter the destination IP address and the prefix length. For
IPv4, the prefix length means the number of ‘1’ in the submask, it is another mode of presenting
submask. One IPv4 address,192.168.1.0/24, submask is 255.255.255.0. While in IPv6, IPv6
address composes of two parts, thus, the prefix and the interface ID, the prefix is like the net ID in
IPv4, and the interface ID is like the host ID in IPv4. The prefix length is to identify the net ID in the
address. One IPv6 address, 3FFE:FFFF:0:CD30:0:0:0:0 / 64, the prefix is 3FFE:FFFF:0:CD3.
Interface: select an interface this route associated.
Gateway IP Address: enter the gateway IP address.

address: Auto and Static mode.
Obtain IPv6 DNS info from a WAN interface
WAN Interface selected: select one configured IPv6 WAN connection from the drop-down menu to
be as an IPv6 DNS.
Use the following Static IPv6 DNS address
Primary IPv6 DNS Server / Secondary IPv6 DNS Server: type the specific primary and secondary
IPv6 DNS Server address.
109
Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing
users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name. This is especially
useful for hosting servers via your ADSL 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 fromtime
to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by
your ISP.
You will first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using their
website, for example http://www.dyndns.org/
Dynamic DNS:
Disable: Check to disable the Dynamic DNS function.
Enable: Check to enable the Dynamic DNS function. The following fields will be activated and
required.
Wildcard: When enabled, you allow the system to lookup on domain names that do not exist to
have MX records synthesized for them.

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
110
DSL
This screen allows you to set DSL parameters. DSL knowledge is required to configure these
settings. Contact your ISP to make sure that these parameters are correct.
Modulation: There are 7 modes “G.Dmt”, “G.lite”, “T1.413”, “ADSL2”, “AnnexL”, ”ADSL2+”,
“AnnexM” that user can select for this connection.
Phone line pair: This is for reserved only. You can choose "Inner Pair" or "Outer Pair".
Capability: There are 2 options “Bitswap Enable” and “SRA Enable” that user can select for this
connection.
Bitswap Enable: Allows bitswaping function.
SRA Enable: Allows seamless rate adaptation.
Click Apply to confirm the settings.
Click
to future configure DSL.

111
With each tone carrying separate data, the technique operates as if 256 separate modems were
running in parallel. The tone range is from 0 to 31 for upstream and from 32 to 255 for
downstream。
112
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.
UPnP:
L Enable: Check to enable the router’s UPnP functionality.

Note: If you like to automatically add LAN clients to a WAN Interface in the new group add the
DHCP vendor ID string.
By configuring a DHCP vendor ID string any DHCP client request with the specified vendor
ID (DHCP option 60) will be denied an IP address from the local DHCP server.
If a vendor ID is configured for a specific client device, please REBOOT the client device
attached to the modem to allow it to obtain an appropriate IP address.
Each LAN interface can only be added into one group and one WAN interface can only be
used in one group.

Multicast
Multicast is one of the three network transmission modes, Unicast, Multicast, Broadcast. It is a
transmission mode that supports point-to-multipoint connections between the sender and the
recipient. IGMP protocol is used to establish and maintain the relationship between IP host and the
host directly connected multicast router.
IGMP stands for Internet Group Management Protocol is a communications protocols used to
manage the membership of Internet Protocol multicast groups. IGMP is used by IP hosts and the
adjacent multicast routers to establish multicast group members. There are three versions for IGMP,
that is IGMPv1, IGMPv2 and IGMPv3.
MLD, short for Multicast Listener Discovery protocol, is a component if the Internet Protocol
version 6(IPv6) suite. MLD is used by IPv6 to discover multicast listeners on a directly attached link,
much as IGMP used in IPv4. The protocol is embedded in ICMPv6 instead of using a separate
protocol. MLDv1 is similar to IGMPv2 and MLDv2 is similar to IGMPv3.

Wireless
This section provides you ways to configure wireless access. When you click this item, the column
will expand to display the sub-items that will lead you to configure your router.
Basic, Secturity, MAC Filter, Wireless Bridge, Advanced and Station Info are included here.
128
Basic
It let you determine whether to enable Wireless function and set the basic parameters of an AP and
the Virtual APs.
Wireless: Default setting is set to Enable. If you do not have any wireless devices, check the
checkbox again to unselect.
Hide SSID: It is function in which transmits its SSID to the air so that when wireless client searches
for a network, router can then be discovered and recognized. Check the checkbox to determine
whether you want to hide SSID.
Clients Isolation: if you enabled this function, then each of your wireless clients will not be
communicate with each other.
Disable WMM Advertise: Stop the router from ‘advertising’ its Wireless Multimedia (WMM)
functionality, which provides basic quality of service for time-sensitive applications (e.g. VoIP, Video).
Check to disable or enable this function.
Wireless multicast Forwarding (WMF): check to enable or disable wireless multicast forwarding.
SSID: The SSID is the unique name of a wireless access point (AP) to be distinguished from another.
For security purpose, change the default wlan-ap to a unique ID name to the AP already built-in to
the router’s wireless interface. It is case sensitive and must not excess 32 characters. Make sure
your wireless clients have exactly the SSID as the device, in order to get connected to your network.
Note: SSID is case sensitive and must not excess 32 characters.
BSSID: Basic Set Service Identifier, it is a local managed IEEE MAC address, and is 48 bits value.
Country: Different countries have different wireless band resources, so you can select the
appropriate Country according to the area where you want to device used.
Max Clients: enter the number of max clients the wireless network can supports,1-16.
Max-Guest/virtual Access points: A “Virtual Access Point” is a logical entity that exists within a
129
physical Access Point (AP). When a single physical AP supports multiple “Virtual APs”, each Virtual
AP appears to stations (STAs) to be an independent physical AP, even though only a single physical
AP is present. For example, multiple Virtual APs might exist within a single physical AP, each
advertising a distinct SSID and capability set. Alternatively, multiple Virtual APs might advertise the
same SSID but a different capability set – allowing access to be provided via Web Portal, WEP, and
WPA simultaneously. Where APs are shared by multiple providers, Virtual APs provide each provider
with separate authentication and accounting data for their users, as well as diagnostic information,
without sharing sensitive management traffic or data between providers. You can enable the virtual
AP.
Here you can enable some Virtual APs according to the request. And the other parameters of virtual
APs are the same to the above.

Wireless Bridge
WDS (wireless distributed system) is a wireless access point mode that enables wireless link and
communication with other access point. It is easy to be installed, simply define the peer’s MAC
address of the connected AP. WDS takes advantages of cost saving and flexibility which no extra
wireless client device is required to bridge between two access points and extending an existing
wired or wireless infrastructure network to create a larger network.
Here you can select to decide what role the AP servers as, AP or wireless bridge (WDS).
AP Mode: determines whether the gateway will act as an Access point or as a Bridge.
L Access Point: the gateway communicates with both clients and bridges.
L Wireless Bridge: the gateway communicates with other WDS devices only. In this mode, the
gateway doesn’t communicate with client devices.
If your wireless network includes repeaters that use WDS, the gateway in wireless bridge mode will
also communicate with your repeaters. The gateway in wireless bridge mode will not communicate
with a repeater that uses a proprietary (non-WDS) mode.
Bridge Restrict: When AP Mode is set to Wireless Bridge, this determines whether the gateway
will communicate with all other bridges or only specific ones:
Enable: to enable wireless bridge restriction. Only those specified in the Remote MAC
Address the gateway can communicate with.
Remote Bridge MAC Address: enter the remote bridge MAC addresses. Here up to 4 bridge
MAC addresses are supported.

what size. Packets succeeding the fragmentation threshold of 802.11n WLAN will be split into
smaller units suitable for circuit size. While the packets smaller than fragmentation threshold will not
be fragmented. Default is 2346, setting the fragmentation too low may result in poor performance.
RTS Threshold: Request to Send (RTS) threshold specifies the packet size, when exceeds the size,
the RTS/CTS will be triggered. The default setting of 2347(max length) will disable the RTS.
DTIM Interval: Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). The entry range is a value between 1
and 255. A DTIM is countdown variable that informs clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the AP has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for
associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM interval value. AP clients hear the beacons
and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default is 1.
Beacon Interval: The amount of time between beacon transmissions in is milliseconds. The default
is 100ms and the acceptable is 1- 65535. The beacon transmissions identify the presence of an
access point.
Global Max Clients: Here you have the option of setting the limit of the number of clients who can
connect to your wireless network.
XPress™ Technology: It has been designed to improve the wireless network efficiency. Default is
disabled.

SNMP Agent
SNMP, Simple Network Management Protocol, is the most popular one in network. It consists of
SNMP Manager，SNMP Agent and MIB. Every network device supporting SNMP will have a SNMP
Agent which is a management software running in the device.
SNMP Manager, the management software running the server, is to use SNMP protocol to send
GetRequest、GetNextRequest, SetRequest message to Agent to view and change the information
of the device.
SNMP Agents, the management software running in the device, accepts the message from the
manager, Reads or Writes the management variable in MIB accordingly and then generates
Response message to send it to the manager. Also, agent will send Trap message to the manager
when agent finds some exceptions.
Trap message, is the message automatically sent by the managed device without request to the
manager about the emergency events.
SNMP Agent: enable or disable SNMP Agent.
WAN Access: enable or disable WAN access which allows PCs in WAN side read or set the SNMP
related MIB pamareters.

TR- 069 Client
TR-069 (short for Technical Report 069) is a DSL Forum (which was later renamed as Broadband
Forum) technical specification entitled CPE WAN Management Protocol (CWMP). It defines an
application layer protocol for remote management of end-user devices. It defines an application layer
protocol for remote management of end-user devices.
As a bidirectional SOAP/HTTP based protocol it can provides the communication between customer
premises equipment (CPE) and Auto Configuration Server (ACS). It includes both a safe
configuration and the control of other CPE management functions within an integrated framework. In
the course of the booming broadband market, the number of different internet access possibilities
grew as well (e.g. modems, routers, gateways, set-top box, VoIP-phones).At the same time the
configuration of this equipment became more complicated –too complicated for end-users. For this
reason, TR-069 was developed. It provides the possibility of auto configuration of the access types.
Using TR-069 the terminals can get in contact with the Auto Configuration Servers (ACS) and
establish the configuration automatically and let ACS configure CPE automatically.
Inform: select enable to let CPE be authorized to send Inform message to automatically connect to
ACS.
Inform Interval: Specify the inform interval time (sec) which CPE used to periodically send inform
message to automatically connect to ACS. When the inform interval time arrives, the CPE will send

NTP is a protocol for synchronization of computers. It can enable computers synchronize to the NTP
server or clock source with a high accuracy.
Choose the NTP time server from the drop-down menu, If you prefer to specify an NTP server other
than those in the drop-down list, simply enter its IP address in their appropriate blanks provided as
shown above. Your ISP may also provide an SNTP server for you to use.
Choose your local time zone from the drop-down menu. After a successful connection to the Internet,
the router will retrieve the correct local time from the NTP server you have specified. If you prefer to
specify an NTP server other than those in the drop-down list, simply enter its IP address in their
appropriate blanks provided as shown above. Your ISP may also provide an NTP server for you to
use.

Suggested Action
Ensure that all other devices connected to the same
telephone line as your router (e.g. telephones, fax
machines, analogue modems) have a line filter
connected between them and the wall socket (unless
you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter
installed by a qualified and licensed electrician), and
ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the
right way around. Missing line filters or line filters
installed the wrong way around can cause problems
with your ADSL connection, including causing frequent
disconnections. If you have a back-to-base alarm
system you should contact your security provider for a
technician to make any necessary changes.

Problem with LAN interface
Problem
Cannot PING any PC on LAN
Suggested Action
Check the Ethernet LEDs on the front panel.
The LED should be on for the port that has a PC
connected. If it does not lit, check to see if the cable
between your router and the PC is properly
connected. Make sure you have first uninstalled your
firewall program before troubleshooting.
Verify that the IP address and the subnet mask are
consistent for both the router and the workstations.
