Finding a Suitable Location
The SMCD3GN3 Wireless Cable Modem Gateway can be installed in any location with
access to the cable network. All of the cables connect to the rear panel of the Gateway for
better organization and utility. The LED indicators on the front panel are easily visible to
provide users with information about network activity and status.
For optimum performance, the location you choose should:
Be close to a working AC power outlet
Allow sufficient air flow around the Gateway to keep the device as cool as possible
Not expose the Gateway to a dusty or wet environment
Be an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings
between the Gateway and your other devices to a minimum
Be away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference, such as ceiling
fans, home security systems, microwaves, or the base for a cordless phone
Be away from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or aluminum studs.
Large expanses of other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks, mirrors,
brick, and concrete can also affect your wireless signal
Connecting to the LAN
Using an Ethernet LAN cable, you can connect the Gateway to a desktop computer,
notebook, hub, or switch. The SMCD3GN3 Wireless supports auto-MDI/MDIX, so you can
use either a standard straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable.
1. Connect either end of an Ethernet cable to one of the four ETH ports on the rear panel of
the Gateway (see Figure 3).
Figure 3. Connecting to an ETH Port on the Gateway Rear Panel

Connecting the WAN
To connect the Gateway to a Wide Area Network (WAN) interface:
3. Connect a coaxial cable to the port labeled Cable on the rear panel of the Gateway from a
cable port in your home or office (see Figure 2 on page 14). Use only manufactured coaxial
patch cables with F-type connectors at both ends for all connections.
4. Hand-tighten the connectors to secure the connection.
Powering on the Gateway
After making your LAN and WAN connections, use the following procedure to power on the
Gateway:
1. Connect the supplied power cord to the port on the rear panel of the Gateway (see Figure
2 on page 14).
2. Connect the other end of the power cord to a working power outlet. The Gateway powers
on automatically, the POWER LED on the front panel goes ON, and the other front panel
LEDs show the Gateway’s status (see Table 1 on page 13).
WARNING: Only use the power cord supplied with the Gateway. Using a different
power cord can damage the Gateway and void the warranty.

IP addresses are close to being used up and thus very hard to get. One solution to this
problem is "private" IP addresses. Private IP addresses are ranges of IP addresses set
aside expressly for use by a company or other entity internally. Private IP addresses are
non-routable and, therefore, cannot be used to connect directly to the Internet.
Some of the advantages of private IP addresses include:
Increased security, since private IP addresses are not routable across the Internet
You conserve the world-wide pool of IP addresses
You do not have to register or pay for these IP addresses in any way
The LAN Settings menu lets you configure private LAN IP settings and private IP address
pools for the Gateway. To access the LAN Settings menu, click LAN in the menu bar. Figure

QoS Settings Menu
Quality of Service (QoS) refers to a collection of techniques for identifying data whose
delivery across the network is time sensitive, and managing its delivery through both
bandwidth allocation and prioritization schemes
Using the QoS Settings menu, you can enable the Gateway’s QoS module to provide
guarantees on the ability of the network to deliver predictable results. To access the QoS
menu, click QOS in the menu bar. Figure 30 shows an example of the menu.
By default, QoS is enabled. To enable the Gateway’s QoS module, check Enable QOS
Module and click Apply. To disable the Gateway’s QoS module, uncheck Enable QOS
Module and click Apply.
If you enable the Gateway’s QoS module, the following submenus appear under QOS in the
menu bar:
Port - lets you configure the priority queue to which the switch port is mapped. See page
64.
COS - lets you define four queues to which the CoS is mapped. See page 65.
DSCP - lets you define the QoS class queue to which the customized DSCP is mapped.
See page 67.
Queue - lets you specify whether QoS behavior runs with strict or weighted priority. See
page 69.
DSCP Remarking - lets you define the DSCP remarking action and mode. See page 71.

CoS Settings Menu
Given that there will always be points in the network where multiple traffic streams merge or
where network links will change speed and capacity, it is important to move traffic on the
basis of relative importance. Without CoS prioritization, less important traffic can consume
network bandwidth and slow down or halt the delivery of more important traffic. For example,
without CoS, most traffic received by the Gateway is forwarded with the same priority it had
upon entering the Gateway. In many cases, such traffic is ‘‘normal’’ priority and competes for
bandwidth with all other normal-priority traffic, regardless of its relative importance to your
requirements. CoS helps to keep the most important network traffic moving at an acceptable
speed, regardless of current bandwidth usage. This means you can manage available
bandwidth so that the switch transmits the most important traffic first.
The CoS Settings menu lets you configure a CoS priority of 0 through 7 for an outbound
packet. When the packet is then sent to a port, the CoS priority determines which outbound
queue the packet uses. After configuring CoS priority for outbound packets, use this menu to
map the classes of service to the Gateway’s four ports.
To access the CoS Settings menu, click QOS in the menu bar and then click the CoS
submenu in the menu bar. Figure 32 shows an example of the menu.
Note: The COS submenu is not available in the menu bar if Enable QOS Module
is not checked in the QoS Settings menu (see page 62).

DSCP Based QoS Menu
The DSCP Based QoS menu lets you classify and prioritize traffic using DSCP tags. DSCP
allows the Gateway to determine how traffic classes should be prioritized. Using the DSCP
Based QoS menu, you can use DSCP to provide different levels of service to conforming
and non-conforming traffic by appropriately selecting the DSCP values in this menu. The
Gateway uses the Hierarchical Token Bucket queuing algorithm, which divides the 64
possible DSCP code values into 8 queues.

Lets you select the DSCP remarking mode that the Gateway is to use. Choices are:
• Map frame priority to AF code points = select this option for Quality of Service configurations that use
assured forwarding (AF) code points to mark packets. AF guarantees a certain amount of bandwidth to
an AF class and allows access to extra bandwidth, if available. (default)
• Map frame priority to CS code points = select this option for Quality of Service configurations that use
class selector (CS) code points to mark packets. CS provides code points that can be used for
backward compatibility with IP Precedence. IP Precedence is a legacy technology that the Gateway
supports for backwards compatibility.
Request a remarking action when DSCP equals one of the following CPs
Expedited Forwarding
Code Point
Expedited forwarding provides a low-loss, low-latency, low-jitter, and assured bandwidth service.
Applications such as VoIP, video, and other time sensitive applications require a robust network treatment
like expedited forwarding. When checked, the Gateway requests a remarking action if DSCP equals an
expedited forwarding code point. By default, this option is not checked.
Assured Forwarding
Code Points
Assured forwarding defines a method by which packets can be given different forwarding assurances.
Traffic can be divided into different classes and then each class given a certain percentage of bandwidth.
For example, one class could have 50% of the available link bandwidth, another class could have 30%,
and another 20% of the bandwidth. When checked, the Gateway requests a remarking action if DSCP
equals an assured forwarding code point. By default, this option is not checked.
Class Selector Code
Points
Class Selector code points are code points that can be used for backward compatibility with IP Precedence
models. When checked, lets the Gateway request a remarking action if DSCP equals a class selector code
point. By default, this option is checked, but does not take effect until the OSPF Status changes to
ENABLE.
Zero
When checked, lets the Gateway request a remarking action if DSCP equals zero. By default, this option is
checked, but does not take effect until the OSPF Status changes to ENABLE.
Others
When checked, lets the Gateway request a remarking action if DSCP equals a non-zero value. By default,
this option is checked, but does not take effect until the OSPF Status changes to ENABLE.

Using the Static Routes menu, you can add up to eight static routes, containing different
networks and subnets, to routers connected to the Gateway. The following example
describes how to configure a static route For example, assume that a router called SMC is
connected to the Gateway with subnet address 111.222.33.0 attached to it. Also, assume
that the router’s IP address in the Gateway subnet is 192.168.100.33. In this example, you
can add a static route named SMC, with a destination IP address of 111.222.33.0, a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0, and a gateway IP address of 192.168.100.33.
Adding Static Routes
To add static routes:

RIP Control Menu
RIP sends routing-update messages at regular intervals. When a router receives a routing
update that includes changes to an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new route.
The metric value for the path is increased by 1, and the sender is indicated as the next hop.
RIP routers maintain only the best route (the route with the lowest metric value) to a
destination. After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting
routing updates to inform other network routers of the change. These updates are sent
independently of the regularly scheduled updates that RIP routers send.
In general, when a router sends a routing update, the following authentication sequence
occurs
1. A router sends a routing update with a key and the corresponding key number to the
neighbor router.
2. The receiving (neighbor) router checks the received key against the same key stored in its
own memory.
3. If the two keys match, the receiving router accepts the routing update packet. If the two
keys do not match, it rejects the routing update packet.
Using the RIP Control menu, you can configure the way how the Gateway adjusts to
physical changes in the network’s layout and exchange routing tables with other routers. To
access the RIP Control menu, click Routing in the menu bar and then click the RIP Control
submenu. Figure 46 shows an example of the menu and Table 21 describes the options.

OSPF Control Menu
OSPF is a router protocol used in larger autonomous system networks in preference to RIP,
an older routing protocol that is installed in many of today's corporate networks. Using OSPF,
a host that obtains a change to a routing table or detects a change in the network
immediately multicasts the information to all other hosts in the network, so that all have the
same routing table information. Unlike RIP, in which the entire routing table is sent, the host
using OSPF sends only the part that has changed. With RIP, the routing table is sent to a
neighbor host at a pre-determined interval. OSPF multicasts the updated information only
when a change has taken place.
Using the OSPF Control menu, you can control how the Gateway uses OSPF. You can also
add more than one OSPF area to the cable interface.
To access the OSPF Control menu, click Routing in the menu bar and then click the OSPF
Control submenu. Figure 40 shows an example of the menu and Table 15 describes the

WPS Setup
Using the WPS Setup menu, you can enable or disable WPS. WPS is a standard for easy
and secure wireless network set up and connections.
The advantages of WPS are:
WPS automatically configures the network name (SSID) and WPA security key for the
Gateway and for the access point and wireless devices that join the network.
You do not need to know the network name and security keys or passphrases to use
WPS to join a wireless network.
No one can guess your security keys or passphrase because they are generated
randomly.
WPS uses the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), which is a strong authentication
protocol used in WPA2.
The disadvantages of WPS are:
Unless all the Wi-Fi devices on the network are WPS-compatible, you cannot take
advantage of the ease of securing the network.
Not all wireless equipment supports WPS.

Configuring Special Applications
Using the Special Application menu, you can configure the Gateway to detect port triggers
for detect multiple-session applications and allow them to pass the firewall. For special
applications, besides the initial communication session, there are multiple related sessions
created during the protocol communications. Normally, a normal treats the triggered
sessions as independent sessions and blocks them. However, the Gateway can co-relate
the triggered sessions with the initial session and group them together in the NAT session
table. As a result, you need only specify which protocol type and port number you want to
track, as well as some other related parameters. In this way, the Gateway can pass the
special applications according to the supplied information.
Assume, for example, that to use H.323 in a Net Meeting application, a local client starts a
session A to a remote host. The remote host uses session A to communicate with the local
host, but it also could initiate another session B back to the local host. Since there is only
session A recorded in the NAT session table when the local host starts the communication,
session B is treated as an illegal access from the outside and is blocked. Using the Special
Application menu, you can configure the Gateway to co-relate sessions A and B and
automatically open the port for the incoming session B.
To display the Special Applications menu, click Firewall in the menu bar and then click the
Special Application submenu. Figure 62 shows an example of the menu.
The maximum allowed triggers is 50. To enable the special application function, check the
Enable Triggering checkbox and click Apply. To disable it, uncheck the Enable Triggering
checkbox and click Apply.
Note: The Special Application submenu is not available in the menu bar if
Enable Firewall Module is disabled in the Security Settings (Firewall) menu (see
page 105).

Option
Description
Name
Name for identifying the trigger. The name is for reference purposes only.
Type
The type of protocol you want to use with the trigger. Choices are TCP and UDP. Default is
TCP. For example, to track the H.323 protocol, the protocol type should be TCP.
Trigger Port
From and To port ranges of the special application. For example, to track the H.323 protocol,
the From and To ports should be 1720.
Target Port
From and To port ranges for the target port listening for the special application.
Interval
Specify the interval between 50 and 30000 between two continuous sessions. If the interval
exceeds this time interval setting, the sessions are considered to be unrelated.
IP Replacement
Select the IP replacement according to the application. Some applications embed the source
host's IP in the datagram and normal NAT would not translate the IP address in the datagram.
To make sure the network address translation is complete, IP replacement is necessary for
these special applications, such as H.323.
Allow sessions initiated from/to the
3rd host
Decide whether the sessions can start from/to a third host. To prevent hacker attacks from a
third host, this feature usually is not allowed. However, for some special applications, such as
MGCP in a VOIP application, a session initiated from a third host is permitted. For example,
assume Client A is trying to make a phone call to a host B. Client A tries to communicate with
the Media Gateway Controller (MGC) first and provides host B's number to MGC. Then MGC
checks its own database to find B and communicate with B to provide B the information about
A. B uses this information to communicate directly to A. So initially, A is talking to MGC, but
the final step has B initiating a session to A. If the third-party host-initiated session is not
allowed in this example, the whole communication fails.

Using the Ping Tool
Using the ping tool, you can check the connectivity between the Gateway and another local
or remote device. The Gateway provides a ping tool for conducting the ping with the default
Gateway, across the RF interface, or across the WAN interface. This tool sends a small
packet of data and then waits for a reply. When you ping a computer IP address and receive
a reply, it confirms that the device is connected to the Gateway.
To perform ping activities, use the following procedure under Ping on the Diagnostics menu.
1. Enter the IP address or domain name of a target host in the Ping field.
2. In the drop-down list to the right of the IP address or domain name, select whether the ping
is to be sent to the default Gateway, across the Gateway’s RF interface, or across the
Gateway’s WAN interface.
3. Click the ping button. The results appear in the Diagnostics – Ping Results screen (see
Figure 77 and Figure 78). The results screen may flash as the contents refresh during the
ping.
4. To close the results screen, click the Back button.

Using the Trace Route Tool
The Gateway provides a trace route tool for conducting the trace route with the default
Gateway, across the RF interface, or across the WAN interface. This tool provides a
supplemental role to the ping tool. While the ping tool confirms IP network reachability, you
cannot pinpoint and improve some isolated problems.
Consider the following situations:
When there are many hops (for example, gateways or routes) between the Gateway and
the destination, and there seems to be a problem somewhere along the path. The
destination system may have a problem, but you need to know where a packet is
actually lost.
The ping tools do not tell you the reasons for a lost packet.
The trace route tool can inform you where the packet is located and why the route is lost.
Using the trace route tools, you can map the network path in real time from the Gateway to a
local or public host.
To perform trace route activities, use the following procedure under Trace Route on the
Diagnostics menu.
1. Enter the IP address or domain name of a target host in the Trace Route field.
2. In the drop-down list to the right of the IP address or domain name, select whether the
trace route is to be sent to the default Gateway, across the Gateway’s RF interface, or
across the Gateway’s WAN interface.
3. Click the tracert button. The trace route results appear in the Diagnostics – Trace Route
Results screen, as the Gateway sends UDP packets to each device between the Gateway
and the destination (see Figure 79 and Figure 80). It starts with the nearest device and
expands the search by one hop until the destination is reached or the trace route times out.
The results screen may flash as the contents refresh during the trace route operation.
4. To close the screen, click the Back button.

Sending Inspected Traffic to a Log Server
The Gateway can inspect upstream and downstream traffic, and log the results to the syslog
server, where they can be further examined.
To send inspected traffic to a log server, perform the following procedure under Send
inspected traffic to Log Server on the Diagnostics menu.
1. In the first four fields, enter the IP address of the log server.
2. In the for field, enter the number of seconds that inspected traffic is to be sent to the log
server.
3. Click the Apply button.
4. The Gateway sniffs the traffic, logs the traffic to the syslog, and displays the message in
Figure 81 when the number of seconds elapses.
5. Click OK to close the message.
You can now examine the sniffed traffic using appropriate syslog daemons and applications.

Using the SNTP Menu
The SNTP Settings menu lets you configure the Gateway to act as an SNTP client. SNTP is
a simplified, client-only version of NTP, a standard protocol used to synchronize system
clocks on computer systems. SNTP can be enabled on the Gateway to keep the Gateway’s
time accurate up to fractions of a second. The service is constantly updating the Gateway’s
clock, and can be used as a master time source for other systems on your network.
Note: While SNTP typically provides time within 100 milliseconds of the accurate
time, it does not provide the complex filtering and statistical mechanisms of NTP. In
addition, SNTP does not authenticate traffic. An SNTP client is more vulnerable to
misbehaving servers than an NTP client, and should only be used in situations
where strong authentication is not required.
To access the SNTP Settings menu, click Tools in the menu bar and then click the SNTP
Client submenu in the menu bar. Figure 82 shows an example of the menu and Table 32
describes the options you can select.

Configuring VPN Settings
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a technology designed to increase the security of
information transferred over the Internet. A VPN creates a private encrypted tunnel from the
user's computer, through the local wireless network, through the Internet, all the way to the
corporate servers and database.
The Gateway supports the Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) to secure IP traffic. IPSec
builds “virtual tunnels” between a local and remote subnet for secure communication
between two networks. This connection is commonly known as a Virtual Private Network
(VPN).
Alternatively, tunneling protocols such as L2TP and PPTP can be used to achieve a secure
connection (such as to a corporate LAN) over the Internet. These tunneling protocols can
optionally be secured themselves using IPSec.
Using the VPN menu, you can enable or disable the Gateway’s VPN settings. If the VPN
settings are enabled, you can use VPN submenus to:
Allow PC clients behind the Gateway to access the IPSec VPN tunnel. See page 147.
Define the VPN tunnel configuration. See page 148.
Using the VPN Menu
You can use the VPN menu to enable or disable the Gateway’s VPN functions. By default,
the Gateway’s Virtual Private Network (VPN) settings are disabled.
To access the VPN menu, click VPN in the menu bar. Figure 83 shows an example of the
