Apply Changes -- Click to save the setting to the configuration and the modem will be retrained. 4.6 Service There are three sub-menus for Service configuration: DHCP Settings, DNS, Firewall, UPnP, and RIP. 4.6.1 DHCP This page is used to configure [DHCP Relay] and [DHCP Server]. [DHCP Server] By default, the device is configured as a DHCP server, with a predefined IP address pool of 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.100 (subnet mask 255.255.255.0).
41 IP Pool Range -- Specify the lowest and highest addresses in the pool. Max Lease Time -- The Lease Time is the amount of time that a network user is allowed to maintain a network connection to the device using the current dynamic IP address. At the end of the Lease Time, the lease is either renewed or a new IP is issued by the DHCP server. The amount of time is in units of seconds. The default value is 86400 seconds (1 day). The value –1 stands for the infinite lease. Domain Name -- A user-friendly name that refers to the group of hosts (subnet) that will be assigned addresses from this pool. Apply Changes -- Set new DHCP server configuration. New parameters will take effect after save into flash memory and reboot the system. Undo – Discard your changes. [DHCP Relay] Some ISPs perform the DHCP server function for their customers’ home/small office network. In this case, you can configure this device to act as a DHCP relay agent. When a host on your network requests Internet access, the device contacts your ISP to obtain the IP configuration,
42and then forward that information to the host. You should set the DHCP mode after you configure the DHCP relay. DHCP Mode -- Specify the IP address of your ISP’s DHCP server. Requests for IP information from your LAN will be passed to the default gateway, which should route the request appropriately. Apply Changes -- Click to save the setting to the configuration. 4.6.2 DNS There are two submenus for the DNS Configuration: [DNS Server] and [Dynamic DNS]. [DNS Server] This page is used to select the way to obtain the IP addresses of the DNS servers.
43 Attain DNS Automatically -- Select this item if you want to use the DNS servers obtained by the WAN interface via the auto-configuration mechanism. Set DNS Manually -- Select this item to configure up to three DNS IP addresses. Apply Changes -- Set new DNS relay configuration. New parameters will take effect after save into flash memory and reboot the system. [Dynamic DNS] Each time your device connects to the Internet, your ISP assigns a different IP address to your device. In order for you or other users to access your device from the WAN-side, you need to manually track the IP that is currently used. The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to register your device with a DNS server and access your device each time using the same host name. The Dynamic DNS page allows you to enable/disable the Dynamic DNS feature.
44 DDNS provider -- There are two DDNS providers to be selected in order to register your device with: DynDNS and TZO. A charge may occur depends on the service you select.

Enter the IP address of that computer as a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host with unrestricted Internet access. When doing this, the DMZ host is no longer behind the firewall.
50 DMZ Host -- Check this item to enable the DMZ feature. DMZ Host IP Address -- IP address of the local host. This feature sets a local host to be exposed to the Internet. Apply Changes -- Click to save the setting to the configuration. 4.6.4 UPnP The DSL device supports a control point for Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) version 1.0, and supports two key features: NAT Traversal and Device Identification. This feature requires one active WAN interface. In addition, the host should support this feature. In the presence of multiple WAN interfaces, select an interface on which the incoming traffic is present. With NAT Traversal, when an UPnP command is received to open ports in NAT, the application translates the request into system commands to open the ports in NAT and the firewall. The interface to open the ports on is given to UPnP when it starts up and is part of the configuration of the application. For Device Identification, the application will send a description of the DSL device as a control point back to the host making the request.
51 UPnP -- Enable/disable UPnP feature. WAN Interface -- Select WAN interface that will use UPnP from the drop-down lists. Apply Changes -- Click to save the setting to the system configuration. 4.6.5 RIP RIP is an Internet protocol you can set up to share routing table information with other routing devices on your LAN, at your ISP’s location, or on remote networks connected to your network via the ADSL line. Most small home or office networks do not need to use RIP; they have only one router, such as the ADSL Router, and one path to an ISP. In these cases, there is no need to share routes, because all Internet data from the network is sent to the same ISP gateway. You may want to configure RIP if any of the following circumstances apply to your network: − Your home network setup includes an additional router or RIP-enabled PC (other than the ADSL Router). The ADSL Router and the router will need to communicate via RIP to share their routing tables. − Your network connects via the ADSL line to a remote network, such as a corporate network. In order for your LAN to learn the routes used within your corporate network, they should both be configured with RIP. − Your ISP requests that you run RIP for communication with devices on their network.
52 RIP -- Enable/disable RIP feature. Apply Changes -- Click to save the setting of this setting block to the system configuration Interface -- The name of the interface on which you want to enable RIP. Receive Mode -- Indicate the RIP version in which information must be passed to the DSL device in order for it to be accepted into its routing table. Send Mode -- Indicate the RIP version this interface will use when it sends its route information to other devices. Add -- Add a RIP entry and the new RIP entry will be display in the table Delete Selected -- Delete a selected RIP entry. The RIP entry can be selected on the Select column of the RIP Config Table. Delete All -- Delete all RIP rules from the table. 4.7 Advance 4.7.1 ARP Table This table shows a list of learned MAC address.
53 4.7.2 Bridging You can enable/disable Spanning Tree Protocol and set MAC address aging time in this page.
54Ageing Time -- Set the Ethernet address ageing time, in seconds. After [Ageing Time] seconds of not having seen a frame coming from a certain address, the bridge will time out (delete) that address from Forwarding DataBase(fdb). 802.1d Spanning Tree -- Enable/disable the spanning tree protocol Apply Changes -- Save this bridge configuration. New configuration will take effect after saving into flash memory and rebooting the system. Show MACs -- List MAC address in forwarding table. 4.7.3 Routing The Routing page enables you to define specific route for your Internet and network data. Most users do not need to define routes. On a typical small home or office LAN, the existing routes that set up the default gateways for your LAN hosts and for the DSL device provide the most appropriate path for all your Internet traffic. − On your LAN hosts, a default gateway directs all Internet traffic to the LAN port(s) on the DSL device. Your LAN hosts know their default gateway either because you assigned it to them when you modified your TCP/IP properties, or because you configured them to receive the information dynamically from a server whenever they access the Internet. − On the DSL device itself, a default gateway is defined to direct all outbound Internet traffic to a route at your ISP. The default gateway is assigned either automatically by your ISP whenever the device negotiates an Internet access, or manually by user to setup through the configuration. You may need to define routes if your home setup includes two or more networks or subnets, if you connect to two or more ISP services, or if you connect to a remote corporate LAN.
55 Enable -- Check to enable the selected route or route to be added. Destination -- The network IP address of the subnet. The destination can be specified as the IP address of a subnet or a specific host in the subnet. It can also be specified as all zeros to indicate that this route should be used for all destinations for which no other route is defined (this is the route that creates the default gateway). Subnet Mask -- The network mask for the destination subnet. The default gateway uses a mask of 0.0.0.0. Next Hop -- The IP address of the next hop through which traffic will flow towards the destination subnet. Metric -- Defines the number of hops between network nodes that data packets travel. The default value is 0, which means that the subnet is directly one hop away on the local LAN network. Interface -- The WAN interface for a static routing subnet is to be applied. Add Route -- Add a user-defined destination route. Update -- Update the selected destination route on the Static Route Table. Delete Selected -- Delete a selected destination route on the Static Route Table. Show Routes -- Click this button to view the DSL device’s routing table. 4.7.4 SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a troubleshooting and management protocol
56that uses the UDP protocol on port 161 to communicate between clients and servers. The DSL device can be managed locally or remotely by SNMP protocol. SNMP -- Enable/disable RIP feature. System Description -- System descriptions of the DSL device. System Contact -- Contact person and/or contact information for the DSL device. System Name -- An administratively assigned name for the DSL device. System Location -- The physical locations of the DSL device. System Object ID -- Vendor object identifier. The vendor’s authoritative identifications of the network management sub-system contained in the entity. Trap IP Address -- Destination IP address of the SNMP trap. Community name (read-only) – Name of the read-only community. This read-only community allows read operation to all objects in the MIB. Community name (write-only) -- Name of the write-only community. This write-only community allows write operation to the objects defines as read-writable in the MIB. Apply Changes -- Save SNMP configuration. New configuration will take effect after saving into flash memory and rebooting the system.
57 4.7.5 Port Mapping To manipulate a mapping group: (1) Select a group from the table (2) Select interfaces from the available/grouped interface list and add it to the grouped/available interface list using the arrow buttons to manipulate the required mapping of the ports. (3) Click “Apply Changes” button to save the changes. 4.7.6 IP QoS The DSL device provides a control mechanism that can provide different priority to different users or data flows. The QoS is enforced by the QoS rules in the QoS table. A QoS rule contains two configuration blocks: Traffic Classification and Action. The Traffic Classification enables you to classify packets on the basis of various fields in the packet and perhaps the physical ingress port. The Action enables you to assign the strictly priority level for and mark some fields in the packet that matches the Traffic Classification rule. You can configure any or all field as needed in these two QoS blocks for a QoS rule.
58[Classification] IP QoS -- Enable/disable the IP QoS function. Source IP -- The IP address of the traffic source. Source Netmask --The source IP netmask. This field is required if the source IP has been entered. Source Port -- The source port of the selected protocol. You cannot configure this field without entering the protocol first. Destination IP -- The IP address of the traffic destination. Destination Netmask -- The destination IP netmask. This field is required if the destination IP has been entered. Destination Port -- The destination port of the selected protocol. You cannot configure this field without entering the protocol first. Protocol -- The selections are TCP, UDP, ICMP and the blank for none. This field is required if the source port or destination port has been entered. Physical Port -- The incoming ports. The selections include LAN ports, wireless port, and the blank for not applicable.
