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
Protocol

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.
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.

of 6060 to 7070. All other incoming packets on this interface are DROPPED.
MAC LAYER FILTER
These rules help in the filtering of Layer 2 traffic. MAC Filtering is only effective in
Bridge mode. After a Bridge mode connection is created, navigate to Advanced
Setup  Security  MAC Filtering in the WUI.
Example 1:

Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
168
Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
The settings shown above are described below.
PPP SETTINGS
The PPP Username, PPP password and the PPPoE Service Name entries are
dependent on the particular requirements of the ISP. The user name can be a
maximum of 256 characters and the password a maximum of 32 characters in
length. For Authentication Method, choose from AUTO, PAP, CHAP, and MSCHAP.
169
ENABLE FULLCONE NAT
This option becomes available when NAT is enabled. Known as one-to-one NAT, all
requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same
external IP address and port. An external host can send a packet to the internal host,
by sending a packet to the mapped external address.
DIAL ON DEMAND
The VR-3063 can be configured to disconnect if there is no activity for a period of
time by selecting the Dial on demand checkbox . You must also enter an
inactivity timeout period in the range of 1 to 4320 minutes.
PPP IP EXTENSION
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.
ENABLE FIREWALL
If this checkbox  is selected, the Security submenu will be displayed on the
Advanced Setup menu after reboot. If firewall is not necessary, this checkbox 
should not be selected to free up system resources for better performance.
USE STATIC IPv4 ADDRESS
Unless your service provider specially requires it, do not select this checkbox . If
selected, enter the static IP address in the IPv4 Address field.
Don’t forget to adjust the IP configuration to Static IP Mode as described in section
3.2 IP Configuration.
FIXED MTU
Maximum Transmission Unit. The size (in bytes) of largest protocol data unit which
the layer can pass onwards. This value is 1492 for PPPoE.
170
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.
BRIDGE PPPOE FRAMES BETWEEN WAN AND LOCAL PORTS
(This option is hidden when PPP IP Extension is enabled)
When Enabled, this creates local PPPoE connections to the WAN side. Enable this
option only if all LAN-side devices are running PPPoE clients, otherwise disable it.
The VR-3063 supports pass-through PPPoE sessions from the LAN side while
simultaneously running a PPPoE client from non-PPPoE LAN devices.
ENABLE IGMP MULTICAST PROXY
Tick the checkbox  to enable Internet Group Membership Protocol (IGMP)
multicast. This protocol is used by IPv4 hosts to report their multicast group
memberships to any neighboring multicast routers.
ENABLE IGMP MULTICAST SOURCE
Enable the WAN interface to be used as IGMP multicast source.
STEP 3: Choose an interface to be the default gateway.
Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
171
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.
Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
172
STEP 5: The WAN Setup - Summary screen shows a preview of the WAN service
you have configured. Check these settings and click Save/Apply if they
are correct, or click Back to modify them.

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.
LAUNCH DHCP6C FOR RAPID COMMIT
Rapid-Commit; is the process (option) in which a Requesting Router (DHCP Client)
obtains "configurable information" (configurable parameters) from a Delegating
Router (DHCP Server) by using a rapid DHCPv6 two-message exchange. The
messages that are exchanged between the two routers (RR and DR) are called the
DHCPv6 "SOLICIT" message and the DHCPv6 "REPLY" message.
195
FIXED MTU
Maximum Transmission Unit. The size (in bytes) of largest protocol data unit which
the layer can pass onwards. This value is 1492 for PPPoE.

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.
BRIDGE PPPOE FRAMES BETWEEN WAN AND LOCAL PORTS
(This option is hidden when PPP IP Extension is enabled)
When Enabled, this creates local PPPoE connections to the WAN side. Enable this
option only if all LAN-side devices are running PPPoE clients, otherwise disable it.
The VR-3063 supports pass-through PPPoE sessions from the LAN side while
simultaneously running a PPPoE client from non-PPPoE LAN devices.
ENABLE MLD MULTICAST PROXY
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) is a component of the Internet Protocol Version
