Description
Log
Level
Allows you to configure the event level and filter out unwanted events below this
level. The events ranging from the highest critical level “Emergency” down to
this configured level will be recorded to the log buffer on the AR-5313u SDRAM.
When the log buffer is full, the newer event will wrap up to the top of the log
buffer and overwrite the old event. By default, the log level is “Debugging”,
which is the lowest critical level.
The log levels are defined as follows:
Emergency = system is unusable
Alert = action must be taken immediately
Critical = critical conditions
Error = Error conditions
Warning = normal but significant condition
Notice= normal but insignificant condition
Informational= provides information for reference
Debugging = debug-level messages
Emergency is the most serious event level, whereas Debugging is the least
important. For instance, if the log level is set to Debugging, all the events from
the lowest Debugging level to the most critical level Emergency level will be
recorded. If the log level is set to Error, only Error and the level above will be
logged.
Display
Level
Allows the user to select the logged events and displays on the View System
Log window for events of this level and above to the highest Emergency level.
Mode

Appendix A - Firewall
STATEFUL PACKET INSPECTION
Refers to an architecture, where the firewall keeps track of packets on each connection traversing
all its interfaces and makes sure they are valid. This is in contrast to static packet filtering which
only examines a packet based on the information in the packet header.
DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK
Is an incident in which a user or organization is deprived of the services of a resource they would
normally expect to have. Various DoS attacks the device can withstand are ARP Attack, Ping
Attack, Ping of Death, Land, SYN Attack, Smurf Attack, and Tear Drop.
TCP/IP/PORT/INTERFACE FILTER
These rules help in the filtering of traffic at the Network layer (i.e. Layer 3).
When a Routing interface is created, Enable Firewall must be checked.
Navigate to Advanced Setup Security IP Filtering.
OUTGOING IP FILTER
Helps in setting rules to DROP packets from the LAN interface. By default, if the Firewall is
Enabled, all IP traffic from the LAN is allowed. By setting up one or more filters, specific packet
types coming from the LAN can be dropped.
Example 1: Filter Name

This filter will drop all UDP packets coming from the LAN with IP Address / Subnet Mask of
192.168.1.45/24 and a source port range of 5060 to 6060, destined to 172.16.13.4/24 and
a destination port range of 6060 to 7070.
144
INCOMING IP FILTER
Helps in setting rules to Allow or Deny packets from the WAN interface. By default, all incoming
IP traffic from the WAN is Blocked, if the Firewall is Enabled. By setting up one or more filters,
specific packet types coming from the WAN can be Accepted.
Example 1:

The PPP IP Extension is a special feature deployed by some service providers. Unless your
service provider specifically requires this setup, do not select it.
PPP IP Extension does the following:
Allows only one PC on the LAN.
Disables NAT and Firewall.
The device becomes the default gateway and DNS server to the PC through DHCP
using the LAN interface IP address.
The device extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the LAN PC. i.e.
the PC becomes a host belonging to the same IP subnet.
The device bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is
addressed to the device’s LAN IP address.
The public IP address assigned by the remote side using the PPP/IPCP protocol is
actually not used on the WAN PPP interface. Instead, it is forwarded to the PC LAN
interface through DHCP. Only one PC on the LAN can be connected to the remote,
since the DHCP server within the device has only a single IP address to assign to a LAN
device.
ENABLE NAT
If the LAN is configured with a private IP address, the user should select this checkbox . The NAT
submenu will appear in the Advanced Setup menu after reboot. On the other hand, if a private
IP address is not used on the LAN side (i.e. the LAN side is using a public IP), this checkbox
should not be selected to free up system resources for better performance.

LAUNCH DHCP6C FOR ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT (IANA)
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is a department of ICANN responsible for
coordinating some of the key elements that keep the Internet running smoothly. Whilst the
Internet is renowned for being a worldwide network free from central coordination, there is a
technical need for some key parts of the Internet to be globally coordinated, and this coordination
role is undertaken by IANA.
Specifically, IANA allocates and maintains unique codes and numbering systems that are used in
the technical standards (“protocols”) that drive the Internet.
IANA’s various activities can be broadly grouped in to three categories:
•
Domain Names
IANA manages the DNS Root, the .int and .arpa domains, and an IDN practices resource.
•
Number Resources
IANA coordinates the global pool of IP and AS numbers, providing them to
Regional Internet Registries.
•
Protocol Assignments
Internet protocols’ numbering systems are managed by IANA in conjunction
with standards bodies.
LAUNCH DHCP6C FOR PREFIX DELEGATION (IAPD)
An Identity Association for Prefix Delegation (IAPD) is a collection of prefixes assigned to a
requesting device. A requesting device may have more than one IAPD; for example, one for each
of its interfaces.
A prefix-delegating router (DHCPv6 server) selects prefixes to be assigned to a requesting router
(DHCPv6 client) upon receiving a request from the client. The server can select prefixes for a
requesting client by using static and dynamic assignment mechanisms. Administrators can
manually configure a list of prefixes and associated preferred and valid lifetimes for an IAPD of a
specific client that is identified by its DUID.
When the delegating router receives a request from a client, it checks if there is a static binding
configured for the IAPD in the client’s message. If a static binding is present, the prefixes in the
binding are returned to the client. If no such binding is found, the server attempts to assign
prefixes for the client from other sources.
An IPv6 prefix delegating router can also select prefixes for a requesting router based on an
external authority such as a RADIUS server using the Framed-IPv6-Prefix attribute.

Internet is renowned for being a worldwide network free from central coordination, there is a
technical need for some key parts of the Internet to be globally coordinated, and this coordination
role is undertaken by IANA.
Specifically, IANA allocates and maintains unique codes and numbering systems that are used in
the technical standards (“protocols”) that drive the Internet.
IANA’s various activities can be broadly grouped in to three categories:
•
Domain Names
IANA manages the DNS Root, the .int and .arpa domains, and an IDN
practices resource.
•
Number Resources
IANA coordinates the global pool of IP and AS numbers, providing them to
Regional Internet Registries.
•
Protocol Assignments
Internet protocols’ numbering systems are managed by IANA in conjunction
with standards bodies.
LAUNCH DHCP6C FOR PREFIX DELEGATION (IAPD)
An Identity Association for Prefix Delegation (IAPD) is a collection of prefixes assigned to a
requesting device. A requesting device may have more than one IAPD; for example, one for each
of its interfaces.
A prefix-delegating router (DHCPv6 server) selects prefixes to be assigned to a requesting router
(DHCPv6 client) upon receiving a request from the client. The server can select prefixes for a
requesting client by using static and dynamic assignment mechanisms. Administrators can
manually configure a list of prefixes and associated preferred and valid lifetimes for an IAPD of a
specific client that is identified by its DUID.
When the delegating router receives a request from a client, it checks if there is a static binding
configured for the IAPD in the client’s message. If a static binding is present, the prefixes in the
binding are returned to the client. If no such binding is found, the server attempts to assign
prefixes for the client from other sources.
An IPv6 prefix delegating router can also select prefixes for a requesting router based on an
external authority such as a RADIUS server using the Framed-IPv6-Prefix attribute.
FIXED MTU
Fixed Maximum Transmission Unit. The size (in bytes) of largest protocol data unit which the layer
can pass onwards. This value is 1500 for PPPoA.
ENABLE PPP DEBUG MODE
When this option is selected, the system will put more PPP connection information into the system
log. This is for debugging errors and not for normal usage.

Enable IGMP Multicast Proxy
Tick the checkbox to enable Internet Group Membership Protocol (IGMP) multicast. This
protocol is used by IPv6 hosts to report their multicast group memberships to any neighboring
multicast routers.
No Multicast VLAN Filter
Tick the checkbox to Enable/Disable multicast VLAN filter.
ENABLE MLD MULTICAST PROXY
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) is a component of the Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) suite.
MLD is used by IPv6 routers for discovering multicast listeners on a directly attached link, much
like IGMP is used in IPv4. The protocol is embedded in ICMPv6 instead of using a separate
protocol.
WAN interface with base MAC
Enable this option to use the router’s base MAC address as the MAC address for this WAN
interface.
STEP 3: Choose an interface to be the default gateway.
Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
200
STEP 4:
Select DNS Server Interface from available WAN interfaces OR enter
Static DNS server IP addresses for the system. In ATM mode, if only a
single PVC with IPoA or static IPoE protocol is configured, Static DNS
server IP addresses must be entered.
Select the configured WAN interface for IPv6 DNS server information OR enter the static IPv6 DNS
server Addresses. Note that selecting a WAN interface for IPv6 DNS server will enable DHCPv6
Client on that interface.
Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
201
STEP 5:
The WAN Setup - Summary screen shows a preview of the WAN service
you have configured. Check these settings and click Apply/Save if they
are correct, or click Back to modify them.
After clicking Apply/Save, the new service should appear on the main screen.
