items, from which you may select one.
0.3 Documents Conventions
0.3.1 Detailed Description of List
The Web UI contains two kinds of lists: editable list and read-only list. The following
examples will describe them respectively.
0.3.1.1 Editable List
An editable list allows you to add, view, modify and delete the entries. Let¶s take the
IP/MAC Binding List (see Figure 0-1) as an example to explain it.

UTT Technologies Chapter 5 System Status
UTT Technologies http://www.uttglobal.com Page 46
Chapter 5 System Status
This chapter describes the system status related pages, which provide a lot of operating
status information and statistics of the Device. By viewing them, the network administrator
can easily analyze the system status and monitor the activities on the Device.
When NAT is enabled, the Device provides a set of powerful monitoring functions, which is
divided into two categories: One is classification statistics, which can help the
administrator find the problems that occurred in the network. The other is real-time
monitoring, which can help the administrator analyze the occurring problem to find out in
which host it happens, what the problem is, and the impact on other hosts.
The management of the Device operating status is divided into two levels:
Ɣ Physical status: The status and statistics for each physical interface, which includes
operating status, ingress and egress traffic statistics, routing table, and so on.
Ɣ NAT status: The status and statistics for every LAN user (i.e., LAN host), which
includes upload and download packets statistics, upload and download rate, total
NAT sessions, and so on.
5.1 System Information
In the Status > System Info page, you may view some system information, which include
system up time, system resource usage status, system version, port status, and interface
rate chart.
5.1.1 System Up Time
Figure 5-1 System Up Time
System Time: It displays the system current date (YYYY-MM-DD) and time
(HH:MM:SS).
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg3e.png)

UTT Technologies http://www.uttglobal.com Page 47
System Up Time: It displays the elapsed time (in days, hours, minutes and seconds)
since the Device was last started.
5.1.2 System Resource
Figure 5-2 System Resource Usage Information
CPU: The real-time CPU usage information, which is displayed as a status bar and
percentage.
Memory: The real-time memory usage information, which is displayed as a status bar
and percentage.
Session: The ratio of current active NAT sessions to the maximum sessions that the
Device supports, which is displayed as a status bar and percentage.
Note
1. The color of the status bar indicates the usage percentage for each resource.
ƔWhen the percentage is below 1%, the bar is blank.
ƔWhen the percentage is between 1% and 50% (below 50%), the color is green.
ƔWhen the percentage is between 50% and 70% (below 70%), the color is yellow.
ƔWhen the percentage is equal to or above 70%, the color is red.
2. The above resources usage information indicates the load of the Device. If the usage
percentages are all relatively low, it means that the Device still has the ability to
process more tasks. If they are all very high, it means that the Device is nearly under
the full load. In this case, the network delays may occur if the Device processes new

5.1.4.2 Interface Rate Chart
The interface rate chart dynamically displays the real-time RX/TX rate, average RX/TX
rate, maximum RX/TX rate and total RX/TX traffic of each physical interface. If you want to
view the rate chart of an interface, click the corresponding interface name hyperlink.
In the interface rate chart, the abscissa (x-axis) shows the time axis, and the ordinate
(y-axis) shows the real-time RX/TX rate axis. Furthermore, you can adjust some
parameters of the chart if needed, such as the time interval during which the real-time
rates are calculated and displayed, and the displayed colors. Note: The rate chart can only
show the rate and traffic information in the last ten minutes. Each time you open this page,
the rate chart starts anew.

5.5 Routing Table
This section describes how to view and use the Routing Table in the Status > Route
Stats page.
A router (or gateway) is a device that forwards data packets along networks. One of the
basic functions of the router is the ability to select an optimal transmission path for each
received packet, and forward the packet to the destination site effectively. The router uses
the routing table, which lists the routes to particular network destinations, to accomplish
this function. The routing table can be built and updated manually by the system
administrator, or dynamically by the router with minimal or no manual intervention.
Figure 5-13 Routing Table
Destination IP/Mask: It indicates the destination network ID. The Destination IP
indicates the IP address of the destination network or destination host; and the Mask
indicates the subnet mask associated with the destination network. For example,
192.168.18.0/24 means that the destination network IP address is 192.168.18.0, and
subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
Gateway IP: It displays the IP address of the next hop gateway or router to which to
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg4e.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 5 System Status
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 63
forward the packets.
Interface: It displays the outbound interface through which the packets are forwarded
to the next hop gateway or router.
xie0: LAN interface; ie1: WAN1 interface; ie2: WAN2 interface;
xptpdial0: Virtual interface waiting for dialing;
xptpx: Virtual interface x (value: 1, 2, 3«);
xbhole0: Internal interface, the Device will discard any packet forwarded to this
interface;
xlocal: Internal soft-route interface, the packets are forwarded to the Device itself;
xreject: Internal interface, the Device will discard any packet forwarded to this
interface and respond an ICMP unreachable packet;
xloopback: Indicates the loopback network with network ID 127.0.0.0/8;
xmcast: Virtual interface, multicast packets will be forwarded to it.
Flag: *-Hidden, o-OSPF, i-ICMP, l-Local, r-RIP, n-SNMP, c-Connected, s-Static,
R-Remote, g-Gateway, h-Host, p-Private, u-Up, t-Temp, M-Multiple, N-NAT, F-Float,
a-Append,?-Unknown.
x*-Hidden: The route is inactive as it is backup, or the corresponding Internet
connection is inactive.
xN-NAT: NAT is enabled on the route, and the LAN hosts are sharing the
corresponding Internet connection to access the Internet.
xF-Float: The priority related parameters of the route has been configured, and it
is floating now. Whether to enable it or not is determined by the corresponding
Internet FRQQHFWLRQ¶VZRUNLQJVWDWXV
Priority: It indicates the priority of the route. If there are multiple routes to the same
destination with different priorities, the Device will choose the route with the highest
priority to forward the packets. The smaller the value, the higher the priority.
Metric: It indicates the cost of using the route, which is typically the number of hops
to the destination. If there are multiple routes with same priority to the same
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg4f.png)

routing table.
¾Refresh: Click it to view the latest information in the list.
¾Display Route Settings: Click it to go to the Advanced > Static Route > Static
Route List page to view the configured static routes settings.
Taking Figure 5-13 as an example, the following describes the different types of routes:
0.0.0.0/0: It indicates a default static route. The Device uses a default route if no other
route matches the destination address included in a packet. The default route
forwards the packet to a default gateway, whose IP address is configured manually or
assigned dynamically by a PPPoE or DHCP server.
127.0.0.0/8: It indicates a loopback route. The Class A network 127.0.0.0 is defined
as the loopback network. Addresses from that network are assigned to interfaces that
process data within the local system. These loopback interfaces do not access a
physical network. Once received a packet which matches the route, the Device will
send the packet to itself.
200.200.202.0/24: It indicates a subnet route. The destination is a subnet. If no host

5.6 Session Monitor
This section describes the Status > Session Monitor page, and it tells you how to
monitor the Internet activities of the LAN users by the NAT Session List. This page
displays the active NAT sessions on the Device, and it lets you filter and display sessions
by certain criteria, such as source IP address, destination IP address/domain name,
destination port, NAT translated IP address/domain name, and so on. It only displays the
NAT sessions that are currently used by the LAN hosts, but doesn¶t display NAT statistics.
When receiving a request initiated by a LAN host, the Device will create a NAT session for
the request to translate the host¶s local IP address to a public IP address. The NAT will
translate incoming as well as outgoing packets belonging to the session.

Keepalive Period: It specifies a period of time during which the Device will detect
whether the link is available or not. If the connection is connected,the Device will
periodically send keepalive packets to the peer device per 1000 milliseconds. If the
Device does not receive a response during the specified period of time, it will
terminate the connection. The default value is 15000 milliseconds.
Idle Timeout: It specifies how long the PPPoE connection keeps connected since no
Internet activity. The Device will automatically terminate the connection after it has
been inactive for the specified period of time. The default value is zero, which means
that the Device will not terminate it.
Session Timeout: It specifies how long the PPPoE connection keeps connected
since established. The Device will automatically terminate the connection after it has
been connected for the specified period of time. The default value is zero, which
means that the Device will not terminate it. In most cases, please leave the default
value.
Priority: It specifies the routing priority of the established connection. When there are
several established connections, the Device will choose the connection with the
highest priority to forward the packets. The lower value means the higher priority.
Down Priority: It specifies the routing priority of the terminated connection. When
there are several terminated connections, the connection with the highest priority will
dial up preferentially. The lower value means the higher priority.
Dial Sub-interface: It specifies a logical virtual interface which is subjected to the
physical interface. You can create multiple sub-interfaces on a single physical
interface. At present, the Device only supports that you create sub-interfaces on the

ƔNat: Select it to enable the NAT proxy ARP on the WAN interface.
Mode: It specifies the speed and duplex mode of the WAN interface. The Device
supports five or six modes (Note that only the gigabit WAN interface supports
1000M-HD), which include Auto (Auto-negotiation), 100M-FD (100M Full-Duplex),
100M-HD (100M Half-Duplex), 10M-FD (10M Full-Duplex), and 10M-HD (10M
Half-Duplex) , 1000M-FD (1000M Full-Duplex). In most cases, please leave the
default value. If a compatibility problem occurred, or the network device connected to
the WAN interface doesn¶t support auto-negotiation function, you may modify it as
required.
MAC Address: It specifies the MAC address of the WAN interface. In most cases,
please leave the default value.
¾Save: Click it to save the PPPoE Internet connection settings.
Note
1. The Dial Sub-interface can only be configured on the product that supports the IEEE
802.1Q tag-based VLAN feature. If you create multiple PPPoE Internet connections
on a WAN Interface, some ISPs may forbid these connections to access their
broadband access servers as they are using the same MAC address (that is, the
WAN Interface¶s MAC address). You can use sub-interface feature to solve this
problem: connect the WAN1 to a switch that provides 802.1Q tag-based VLAN
feature, and then create multiple VALN sub-interfaces on the WAN1, lastly create a
connection on each sub-interface respectively; then each connection will use a MAC
address respectively
2. Compared with the PPPoE Internet connection setup page in the Quick Wizard, this
page provides more configuration parameters, such as, Dial Schedule, Online
Schedule, Keepalive Period,Priority,Down Priority, and so on.
3. In most cases, please leave the Proxy ARP the default value, that is, disable the
proxy ARP on the interface. But in some cases, you need enable the proxy ARP. For
example, when you enable PPTP or L2TP server feature on a WAN interface, and the
IP addresses assigned to the mobile user clients are on the same subnet as the
Device LAN interface, you need enable proxy ARP on this interface. Another example
is that when using multi-NAT (that is, you get multiple public IP addresses from your
ISP) on a WAN interface, you should enable NAT proxy ARP on this interface.

6.3 Load Balancing
This section describes the Basic > Load Balancing page. Note that only after you have
configured more than one Internet connections, the second level menu Load Balancing
will be displayed.
When using multiple Internet connections, you can configure load balancing related
parameters, such as, load balancing policy, load balancing mode, detection method,
detection interval, retry times, and ID binding, and so on.
6.3.1 Introduction to Load Balancing and Failover
6.3.1.1 Internet Connection Detection Mechanism
When using multiple Internet connections, the Device should has the ability of real-time
monitoring each Internet connection, and the network will not be interrupted even a
connection is faulty. To this end, we design flexible automatic detection mechanism on the
Device, and provide multiple detection methods to meet the actual requirements.
For the sake of convenience, we firstly introduce several related parameters including
Detection Target IP,Detection Interval,Retry Times, and Detection Period.
ƔDetection Target IP: It indicates the IP address of a target device. The Device will
monitor an Internet connection by sending the detection packets to the specified
target IP address.
ƔDetection Interval: It indicates the time interval at which the Device periodically
sends detection packets, one packet at a time. The default value is 1000 milliseconds.
Especially, if you don¶t want to monitor an Internet connection, please set it to 0.
ƔRetry Times: It indicates the number of retries per detection period. The default
value is 3.
ƔDetection Period: It indicates a period of time during which the Device detects
whether the Internet connection is available or not. Its value is the product of
Detection Interval and Retry Times. For example, by default, its value is 3000 (1000
× 3 = 3000) milliseconds.
For a normal Internet connection and a faulty Internet connection, the detection
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg75.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 102
mechanisms are different, the following describes them respectively.
For a normal Internet connection, the detection mechanism is as follows: The Device
periodically sends a detection packet at the specified time interval to the target IP address.
Once no response packet received during a detection period, the Device will consider that
the connection is faulty and shield it immediately. For example, by default, if the Device
has sent three detection packets but not received any response packet during a detection
period, it will consider that the connection is faulty.
For a faulty Internet connection, the detection mechanism is as follows: Similarly, the
Device also periodically sends a detection packet at the specified time interval to the
target IP address. Once more than half of the response packets received during a
detection period, the Device will consider that the connection is back to normal and enable
it immediately. For example, by default, if the Device has sent three detection packets and
received two packets during a detection period, it will consider that the connection is back
to normal.
Note
If you don¶t want to monitor an Internet connection, please set its Detection Interval
to 0.
6.3.1.2 Load Balancing Mode
The Device provides two connection groups: primary connection group and backup
connection group. An Internet connection belonging to the primary connection group is a
primary connection, while an Internet connections belonging to the backup connection
group is a backup connection. By default, all the Internet connections are primary
connections. It allows you to divide one or more connections into the backup connection
group, but the WAN1 Internet connection can only be used as a primary connection.
The Device provides two load balancing modes: Full Load Balancing and Partial Load
Balancing.
If you choose to use Full Load Balancing, all the Internet connections are used as
primary connections. The operation principle is as follows:
1. If all the Internet connections are normal, the LAN users will use these connections to
access the Internet.
2. If an Internet connection is faulty, the Device will shield it immediately, and the traffic
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg76.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 103
through the faulty connection will be distributed to other normal connections
automatically.
3. Once the faulty connection is back to normal, the Device will enable it immediately,
and the traffic will be redistributed automatically.
If you choose to use Partial Load Balancing, some Internet connections are used as
primary connections, and others are used as backup connections. The operation principle
is as follows:
1. As long as one or more primary connections are normal, the LAN users will use the
primary connection(s) to access the Internet. In this case, if there is more than one
primary connection, the Device will control and balance the traffic among these
connections.
2. If all the primary connections are faulty, it will automatically switch to the backup
connection(s) to let the LAN users use them to access the Internet. In this case, if
there is more than one backup connection, the Device will control and balance the
traffic among these connections.
3. Once one or more faulty primary connections are back to normal, it will automatically
switch back to the primary connection(s).
Note
During connections switching, some user applications (such as some online games)
may be interrupted unexpectedly due to the nature of TCP connection. UTT
Technologies Co., Ltd. will not bear all the losses and legal proceedings caused by it.
6.3.1.3 Internet Connection Detection Method
The Device provides three detection methods: ICMP,ARP and DNS. It allows you to
select one of them to monitor the Internet connections. Note that you can only select a
single Detection Method for all the Internet connections, but can set different Detection
Target,Detection Interval, and Retry Times for each Internet connection respectively. The
descriptions of each detection mode are as follows:
ƔICMP: The Device will monitor an Internet connection by sending ICMP echo request
packets the target IP address you specify. In this case, the target IP address can be
either the connection¶s default gateway IP address or another public IP address you
specify.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg77.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 104
ƔARP: The Device will monitor an Internet connection by sending ARP request
packets to the connection¶s default gateway IP address.
ƔDNS: The Device will monitor an Internet connection by sending DNS query packets
to the public DNS server IP address you specify.
The following table describes detection target IP supported by each detection method,
and the restriction of using each detection method. Therein, Gateway IP Address
indicates the IP address of the Internet connection¶s default gateway; Other IP Address
indicates an appropriate public IP address except gateway IP address.
Detection Method Detection Target IP Description
ICMP
Gateway IP Address
The detection target IP can be either the gateway IP
address or other public IP address.
Other IP Address
ARP Gateway IP Address
The detection target IP should be the gateway IP
address. You cannot perform ARP request test on a
PPPoE Internet connection.
DNS Other IP Address
The detection target IP should be a public DNS
server¶s IP address.
Table 6-4 Detection Method and Detection Target IP
In practice, it is suggested that you choose a detection method according to the following
points:
1. As ICMP method has high sensitivity and accuracy, it is suggested that you choose
ICMP method to perform ICMP echo test (Ping) on the Internet connection. In most
cases, please use the connection¶s default gateway IP address as the detection
target IP; but if ping response is disabled on the default gateway, you should choose
other appropriate public IP address as the detection target IP.
2. The ARP method applies to a network environment in which ping response is
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg78.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 105
disabled. Note that when performing ARP request test, the detection target IP should
be the gateway IP address; and you cannot perform ARP request test on a PPPoE
Internet connection.
3. The DNS method applies to a network environment in which the Internet connection
is connected always, but the access time is restricted by the ISP. Note that when
performing DNS query test, the detection target IP should be an appropriate public
DNS server IP address; and it is suggested that you use your ISP¶s DNS server IP
address. Moreover, you cannot choose any DNS server used by the LAN hosts as the
detection target; otherwise, those LAN hosts can only use the current Internet
connection to access the Internet, but cannot use other Internet connections.
4. As a PPPoE connection automatically uses LCP (link control protocol) echo
mechanism to validate link availability, the Device will not use ICMP, ARP or DNS
method to monitor the PPPoE Internet connection by default (its Detection Interval is
set to 0). If needed, the Device can perform ICMP echo or DNS query test on the
PPPoE connection in addition to LCP echo mechanism, but the detection target
cannot be the default gateway when choosing ICMP method.
6.3.2 The Operation Principle of Load Balancing
No matter what Load Balancing Mode you choose, as long as there are more than one
primary Internet connections, the Device will implement load balancing among these
connections. The following sections describe the operation principle and the
characteristics of load balancing feature.
6.3.2.1 Allocating Traffic according to Connection Bandwidth
On the Device, it allows you designate the ratio of traffic that will be allocated to each
Internet connection in advance. You can achieve this by specifying the Internet
connection¶sWeight, the connection that has larger Weight will take more traffic than the
connection that has smaller Weight.In most cases, to properly allocate traffic, you may
specify each connection¶V Weight according to the ratio of each connection¶s bandwidth.
For example, we assume that a business has four Internet connections: connection A,
connection B, connection C, and connection D. Their bandwidths are 10M, 6M, 4M and
4M respectively. There are two cases:
Ɣ In the case of Full Load Balancing, as all of the four Internet connections are used
as primary connections, we PD\ VHW HDFK FRQQHFWLRQ¶V Weight to 5, 3, 2, and 2
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg79.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 106
respectively.
Ɣ In the case of Partial Load Balancing, let¶s assume that connection A and B are
used as primary connections, and connection C and D are used as backup
connections, then we may set connection A¶s and B¶sWeight to 5 and 3 respectively,
and set both connection C¶s and D¶sWeight to 1.
6.3.2.2 Two Load Balancing Policies
The Load Balancing Policy is used to control and balance the traffic among multiple
Internet connections. And the Device provides two load balancing policies: load balancing
based on IP address and load balancing based on NAT session. Their implementation
mechanisms are as follows.
1. Load Balancing Based on IP Address
Note that here we assume that each LAN host only has one IP address.
If you choose IP address as the load balancing policy, the Device will assign the LAN
hosts¶ IP addresses to each Internet connection in turn. The ratio of the numbers of the IP
addresses assigned to each connection is the same with the ratio of connection¶sWeight.
In this case, the NAT sessions initiated from the same IP address will use the same
connection, that is, a LAN host will use only one Internet connection to access the
Internet.
For example, there are three Internet connections whose Weights are 3, 2 and 1
respectively. Then in the sequence of accessing the Internet, the first, second and third
LAN hosts will use the first connection, the fourth and fifth LAN hosts will use the second
connection, the sixth LAN hosts will use the third connection; in turn the seventh, eighth
and ninth LAN hosts will use the first connection ... and so on.
2. Load Balancing Based on NAT Session
If you choose NAT session as the load balancing policy, the Device will assign the NAT
sessions to each Internet connection in turn. The ratio of the numbers of the NAT sessions
assigned to each connection is the same with the ratio of each connection¶sWeight. In
this case, the NAT sessions initiated from the same LAN host will use different
connections, that is, a LAN host will use multiple connections to access the Internet.
For example, there are three Internet connections whose Weights are 3, 2 and 1
respectively. Then in the sequence of accessing the Internet, the first, second and third
NAT sessions initiated from the LAN hosts will use the first connection, the fourth and fifth
NAT sessions will use the second connection, the sixth NAT sessions will use the third
connection; in turn the seventh, eighth and ninth NAT sessions will use the first
connection ... and so on.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg7a.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 107
3. How to Choose the Load Balancing Policy
In most cases, it is suggested that you choose IP address as the load balancing policy. If
you want to use some applications that need high bandwidth, such as the NetAnts,
FlashGet, Net Transport, and other multi-threaded download managers (multi-threaded
download means that it can split a file into several pieces and download the pieces
simultaneously, and merge them together once downloaded), you may choose NAT
session as the load balancing policy to take full advantage of multiple Internet connections¶
bandwidth to increase download speed. Note that even if you choose NAT session as the
load balancing policy, due to that the related download website is busy or there are some
other reasons, the bandwidth of each Internet connection cannot be aggregated fully, so
some applications may be not running smoothly.
6.3.3 ID Binding
When using multiple Internet connections, if Load Balancing Policy is set to NAT
Session, the NAT sessions of the same application will be assigned to the different
connections, thus some applications (such as online banking, QQ, etc.) cannot be used
normally due to the identity change. We provide ID binding feature to solve this problem:
After you enable ID binding, the Device will assign the NAT sessions of the same
application to the same Internet connection. For example, when a LAN user logs in to an
online banking system, if the first NAT session is assigned to the WAN2 Internet
connection, henceforth all the subsequent NAT sessions of the online banking application
will be assigned to the WAN2 connection until the user logs out.

enable ID binding feature for some applications such as online banking, QQ, etc.,
please select this check box.

Step 1 Go to the Basic > Load Balancing > ID Binding page.
Step 2 Select the Enable ID Binding check box if needed.
Step 3 Click the Save button to save the ID binding settings.
6.3.8 Related Detection Route
When connection detection is enabled on an Internet connection (i.e., Detection Interval
is more than 0), the Device will automatically create a detection route for the connection to
ensure that the detection packets are forwarded through it. You can view the detection
route configuration in the Static Route List on the Advanced > Static Route page. Refer
to section 7.1.1.2 System Reserved Static Routes for more information about detection
routes.
Note
For a static IP or DHCP Internet connection, when its Detection Target IP is set to
Gateway IP Address, the system will directly use its default route to forward
detection packets to monitor the connection. That is, the default route also acts as a
detection route.

6.4 DHCP & DNS
This section describes the Basic > DHCP & DNS page.
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a framework for passing
configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network. DHCP allows a host to be configured
automatically, eliminating the need for intervention by a network administrator. The Device
can acts as a DHCP server to assign network addresses and deliver other TCP/IP
configuration parameters (such as gateway IP address, DNS server IP address, WINS
server IP address, etc.) to the LAN hosts.
6.4.1 DHCP Server
Figure 6-15 DHCP Server Settings
Enable DHCP Server: It allows you to enable or disable DHCP server. If you want to
enable DHCP server on the Device, please select this check box.
Start IP Address: It specifies the starting IP address assigned by the DHCP server.
In most cases, this address should be on the same subnet as the Device¶s LAN IP
address.
Subnet Mask: It specifies the subnet mask of the IP addresses assigned by the
DHCP server. In most cases, this subnet mask should be the same with the Device¶s
LAN subnet mask.
Number of Addresses: It specifies the maximum number of IP addresses that can
be assigned by the DHCP server.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg83.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 116
Default Gateway: It specifies the IP address of the default gateway for a DHCP client.
In most cases, this address should be the same with the Device¶s LAN IP address,
that is, the Device is used as the default gateway for the LAN hosts.
Lease Time: It specifies a length of time (in seconds) during which a client host can
use an assigned IP address. If the lease expires, the client is automatically assigned
a new dynamic IP address. Before the lease expires, the client typically needs to
renew its address lease assignment with the server. The default value is 3600
seconds.
Primary DNS Server: It specifies the IP address of the primary DNS server that is
available to a DHCP client. If you have already set the Primary DNS Server through
the Quick Wizard or in the Basic > WAN page, the Device will automatically set up
the same value here.
Secondary DNS Server: It specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS server
that is available to a DHCP client. If you have already set the Secondary DNS
Server through the Quick Wizard or in the Basic > WAN page, the Device will
automatically set up the same value here.
¾Save: Click it to save the DHCP server settings.
Note
If you want a LAN host to obtain an IP address and other TCP/IP parameters from the
Device¶s built-in DHCP server, please select the Obtain an IP address
automatically option in the TCP/IP properties dialog box on the host.
6.4.2 DHCP Auto Binding
If the hosts change frequently on your LAN, it is very troublesome to configure DHCP
manual bindings. Using ARP Spoofing Defense (see section 12.1.1 Internal Attack
Defense) feature also needs periodic maintenance. So usually there are some users who
can¶t access the Device and Internet. To deal with these issues, the Device provides
DHCP auto binding feature.
Once the DHCP auto binding is enabled, the Device will immediately scan the LAN to
detect active hosts connected to the Device, learn dynamic ARP information and bind the
related valid IP and MAC address pairs. After that, when a client host obtains an IP
address from the Device that acts as a DHCP server, the Device will immediately bind this
host¶s IP and MAC address pair. So it can effectively protect the Device and LAN hosts
against ARP Spoofing.

UTT Technologies Chapter 6 Basic Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 117
Figure 6-16 DHCP Auto Binding
Enable DHCP Auto Binding: It allows you to enable or disable DHCP auto binding. If
you select this check box to enable DHCP auto binding, once a LAN host obtains an
IP address from the Device that acts as a DHCP server, the Device will immediately
bind this host¶s IP and MAC address pair. Else, the Device will not perform auto
binding operation.
Enable DHCP Auto Deleting: It allows you to enable or disable DHCP auto deleting.
If you select this check box to enable DHCP auto deleting, the Device will
automatically delete a DHCP auto binding entry if the corresponding host releases
the IP address initiatively or its lease expires. Else, the Device will not perform auto
deleting operation.
¾Save: Click it to save your settings.
6.4.3 DNS Proxy
When acting as a DNS proxy, the Device listens for incoming DNS requests on the LAN
interface, relays the DNS requests to the current public network DNS servers, and replies
as a DNS resolver to the requesting LAN hosts.

Enable DNS Proxy: It allows you to enable or disable DNS proxy. If you want to
enable DNS proxy on the Device, please select this check box.
¾Save: Click it to save the DHCP proxy settings.
Note
1. If the DNS proxy is enabled on the Device, in order to use DNS proxy service
normally, you need set the LAN hosts¶ primary DNS server to the Device¶s LAN IP
address. Note: If the DHCP server is also enabled on the Device, the Device will
assign its LAN IP address as the primary DNS server address to the LAN hosts
automatically.
2. To ensure that the DNS proxy works well, you should at least specify the primary
DNS server provided by your ISP on the Device. It is obvious that you can specify the
secondary DNS server if it is provided by your ISP.
3. The Device can act as a DNS proxy server to all LAN users; this greatly simplifies the
LAN hosts setup. For example, there is a LAN DNS proxy server on which a DNS
proxy software is installed (e.g., Wingate), and the LAN users take this server¶s IP
address as the primary DNS server address. Now, the Device will be used as a new
gateway for the LAN hosts. In this case, in order to use DNS proxy service normally,
the administrator only need change the Device¶s LAN IP address to the old proxy
DNS server¶s IP address, and enable DNS proxy on the Device, without modify the
LAN hostV¶ related settings.

Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
This chapter describes how to configure and use the Device advanced features, which
include static route, policy-based routing, DNS redirection, Plug and Play, SNMP,
SYSLOG, DDNS, and switch, and so on.
7.1 Static Route
This section describes the Advanced > Static Route page.
In this page, you can configure not only static routes, but also static route PDBs (PDB:
Policy Database). Using static route PDBs, you can create a large batch of static routes at
a time, thus the traffic destined for one ISP¶s servers will be forwarded through this ISP¶s
connection, but not another ISP¶s connection.
The following describes how to configure and user static route and static route PDB.
7.1.1 Static Route
7.1.1.1 Introduction to Static Route
A static route is manually configured by the network administrator, which is stored in a
routing table. By using routing table, the Device can select an optimal transmission path
for each received packet, and forward the packet to the destination site effectively. The
proper usage of static routes can not only improve the network performance, but also
achieve other benefits, such as traffic control, provide a secure network environment.
The disadvantage of using static routes is that they cannot dynamically adapt to the
current operational state of the network. When there is a change in the network or a failure
occurs, some static routes will be unreachable. In this case, the network administrator
should update the static routes manually.
7.1.1.2 System Reserved Static Routes
In the system, there are two types of reserved static routes: default route and detection
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg87.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 120
route. The following describes them respectively.
1. Default Routes
A default route is used to forward packets that don¶t match any other route in the routing
table. The packets will be forwarded to the default gateway specified by the default route.
The default route¶s destination IP address and subnet mask both are 0.0.0.0.
After you have finished configuring the WAN1 Internet connection through the Quick
Wizard, or configuring the WAN1 Internet connection and other connections in the Basic >
WAN page, the Device will automatically create a default route for each Internet
connection respectively. You can go to the Status > Route Stats page to view their status
information in the Routing Table. A default route¶sDestination IP/Mask is 0.0.0.0/0.
2. Detection Routes
If connection detection is enabled on an Internet connection (i.e., the Detection Interval
is more than 0) in the Basic > Load Balancing page, the Device will automatically create
a detection route for the connection to ensure that the detection packets are forwarded
through it. You can view the detection route configuration in the Static Route List on this
page. Table 7-1 provides the IDs of detection routes for the Internet connections with
different interfaces and connection types.
Note
For a static IP or DHCP Internet connection, when its Detection Target IP is set to
Gateway IP Address, the system will directly use its default route to forward
detection packets to monitor the connection. That is, the default route also acts as a
detection route.

Gateway IP Address: It specifies the IP address of the next hop gateway or router to
which to forward the packets.
Bind to: It specifies an outbound interface through which the packets are forwarded
to the next hop gateway or router. The available options are the name of each
physical interface, and Local. Local means internal soft-route interface, and the
packets will be forwarded to the Device itself.
Description: It specifies the description of the static route. When creating a static
route, you may enter the description for it. Else, the description is provided by the
system.
Detection Interval: It is same with the Detection Interval in the Basic > Load
Balancing > Detection & Weight page. Only the detection route needs it. It specifies
the time interval at which the Device sends the detection packets to detecting the
corresponding Internet connection status. Refer to section 6.3.5 Detection and
Weight Settings for more information.
Priority: It indicates the priority of the route. If there are multiple routes to the same
destination with different priorities, the Device will choose the route with the highest
priority to forward the packets. The smaller the value, the higher the priority.
Metric: It indicates the cost of using the route, which is typically the number of hops
to the IP destination. If there are multiple routes with same priority to the same
destination, the Device will choose the route with the lowest metric to forward the
packets.
¾Save: Click it to save the static route settings.
Note
1. When creating a static route, you should specify the next hop IP address by the
Gateway IP Address or Bind to. If the outbound interface is a physical interface, you
should specify the Gateway IP Address, but may not specify the Bind to (i.e., leave
it blank). In this case, the Device can select an optimal transmission path. If the
outbound interface is a dial interface related to a dial connection (e.g., PPPoE
connection), you should select the corresponding physical interface from the Bind to
drop-down list, but need not specify the Gateway IP Address (i.e., leave it the default
value 0.0.0.0). In this case, the next hop IP address is assigned by a dial server (e.g.,
PPPoE server).
2. In most cases, please don¶t modify the system reserved static route (e.g., Default,
Detect) to avoid surfing the Internet abnormally.

Step 4 Specify the next hop IP address by the Gateway IP Address or Bind to.
If the outbound interface is a physical interface, you should specify the Gateway IP
Address, but may leave the Bind to blank. In this case, the Device will select an optimal
transmission path.
For example, a static route¶s destination network is 192.168.1.0/24, gateway IP address is
192.168.1.254, and the outbound interface is a physical interface. Here you should enter
192.168.1.254 in the Gateway IP Address text box, but may leave the Bind to blank. The
Device will select an optimal transmission path. The detailed settings are shown in the
following figure.
Figure 7-3 Static Route Settings - Example One
If the outbound interface is a dial interface, you should select the corresponding physical
interface from Bind to drop-down list, but need leave the Gateway IP Address the default
value 0.0.0.0. In this case, the next hop IP address is assigned by a dial server (e.g.,
PPPoE server).
For example, a static route¶s destination network is 218.19.213.45/24, the outbound
interface is a PPPoE dial interface, and the corresponding physical interface is WAN2.
Here you should select WAN2 from the Bind to drop-down list, but need leave the

7.1.2 Static Route Policy Database
Note
The policy database is called PDB for short in this document.
7.1.2.1 Introduction to Static Route PDB
A user (e.g., Internet Café or Business) using multiple Internet connections usually applies
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg8d.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 126
for them from different ISPs, for example, one is TEL Internet connection, and another is
CNC Internet connection. In some cases, if packets accessing one ISP¶s servers are
forwarded through another ISP¶s connection, the access rate may be very slow, or the
access even be forbidden. To ensure that the LAN hosts access the servers normally, the
traffic destined for one ISP¶s servers should be forwarded through this ISP¶s connection,
but not another ISP¶s connection. You can easily achieve this by using static route PDBs.
The system provides three predefined route PDBs whose names are TEL,CNC and
ChinaMobile. The TEL PDB is used to access the TEL servers (i.e., the servers provided
by China Network Communications Corporation), the CNC PDB is used to access the
CNC servers (i.e., the servers provided by China Network Communications Corporation),
and the ChinaMobile PDB is used to access the China Mobile servers (i.e., the servers
provided by China Mobile Communications Corporation). The TEL PDB encapsulates many
TEL subnets information (IP addresses and subnet masks), the CNC PDB encapsulates
many CNC subnets information, and the ChinaMobile PDB encapsulates many China
Mobile subnets information. By introducing route PDB, the XVHUV GRQ¶t need add static
routes one by one, but instead create a large batch of static routes at a time. Then the
traffic destined for TEL servers will be forwarded through the TEL connection, the traffic
destined for CNC servers will be forwarded through the CNC Internet connection, and the
traffic destined for China Mobile servers will be forwarded through the China Mobile
connection.
UTT Technologies Co., Ltd. will successively provide more route PDBs according to
actual user requirements. You may go to the Restriction > Policy Database page to view
the route PDBs status information in the Policy Database List, such as version,
reference status, and so on.
In addition, as the IP addresses of ISP servers often change, the UTT¶s technical
engineers will acquire the related information and provide the latest route PDBs
aperiodically as required. In order to facilitate using PDBs, we provide PDB online update
function. That is, you only need go to the Restriction > Policy Database page, and click
the Update hyperlink of a route PDB entry in the Policy Database List. Then the Device
will download the latest PDB from designated web site and apply it automatically.

7.1.2.2 Static Route PDB Settings
Figure 7-5 Static Route PDB Settings
Because each static route PDB encapsulates many IP addresses and subnet masks, you
needn¶t configure the Destination IP and Subnet Mask when creating a static route PDB
entry as shown in Figure 7-5.
As a route PDB entry¶sGateway IP Address,Bind to,Detection Interval,Priority and
Metric are the same with a static route¶s, please refer to section 7.1.1.3 Static Route
Setup for detailed description.
Predefined: You should select a PDB option when creating a static route PDB entry.
The available options are TEL,CNC and ChinaMobile. Note that the TEL PDB
should be bound to a TEL connection, the CNC PDB should be bound to a CNC
connection, and the ChinaMobile PDB should be bound to a China Mobile
connection.
Detection Interval: Its value should be 0 for a route PDB entry.
Description: Its value is Routing PDB, which is provided by the system
automatically when creating a static route PDB.
Save: Click it to save the static route PDB entry settings.
When you have created a route PDB entry here, the system will automatically create
many static routes that have the following characteristics:
zTheir Destination IP and Subnet Mask are predefined by the route PDB.
zEach static route has same Gateway IP Address,Bind to,Detection Interval,
Priority and Metric, that is, the same with the route PDB. Note: As the Detection
Interval can only be set to 0 when creating the PDB entry, so each static route¶s
Detection Interval is 0.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg8f.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 128
zID values are 1, 2, 3 ... incrementally.
Note
If there is a static route PDB entry bound to an Internet connection, once the
connection is activated, all the static routes created by the route PDB entry will take
effect immediately. You can go to the Status > Route Stats page to view the settings
and status of these static routes in the Routing Table.
7.1.2.3 How to Add the Static Route PDB Entries
If you want to add one or more static route PDB entries, do the following:
Step 1 Go to the Advanced > Static Route page.
Step 2 Click the New button or select the Route Settings tab to go to the setup page.
Step 3 Select a PDB option from the Predefined drop-down list.
Step 4 Specify the next hop IP address by the Gateway IP Address or Bind to.
If the outbound interface is a physical interface, you should specify the Gateway IP
Address, but may leave the Bind to blank. In this case, the Device will select an optimal
transmission path.
For example, you want to create a TEL route PDB entry. The TEL Internet connection is
static IP connection (that is, the outbound interface is a physical interface), and gateway
IP address is 200.200.200.254. Here you should enter 200.200.200.254 in the Gateway
IP Address text box, but may leave the Bind to blank. The Device will select an optimal
transmission path. The detailed settings are shown in the following figure.

If the outbound interface is a dial interface, you should select the corresponding physical
interface from the Bind to drop-down list, but need leave the Gateway IP Address the
default value 0.0.0.0. In this case, the next hop IP address is assigned by a dial server
(e.g., PPPoE server).
For example, you want to create a CNC route PDB entry. The CNC Internet connection is

7.2 Policy-Based Routing
This section describes the Advanced > PBR page.
PBR (policy-based routing) provides a tool for forwarding and routing data packets based
on the user-defined policies. Different from the traditional destination-based routing
mechanism, PBR enables you to use policies based on source and destination address,
protocol, port, schedule, and other criteria to route packets flexibly.

Note
PBR (Policy-based routing) takes precedence over the Device¶s normal
destination-based routing. That is, if a packet matches all the criteria (source address,
destination address, protocol type, port, etc.) specified in a PBR entry, it will be forwarded
through the outbound interface specified in the PDB entry. If no match is found in the
PBR list, the packet will be forwarded through normal routing channel (in other words,
destination-based routing is performed).

7.3 DNS Redirection
This section describes the Advanced > DNS Redirection page.
7.3.1 Introduction to DNS Redirection
DNS redirection is used to redirect domain names directly to the specified IP addresses,
that is, the domain names aren¶t resolved by DNS server, but are queried in a
user-defined list of names-to-addresses mappings. Once you have configured some DNS
redirection entries, a DNS redirection list that contains the names-to-addresses mappings
will be created. When receiving a DNS request, the Device lookups the requested domain
name in the DNS redirection list. If a match is found, the Device will send a DNS response
that contains the IP mapped address to the requester. Else, the Device will resolve the
domain name by looking up local DNS cache or external DNS servers.
7.3.2 Enable DNS Redirection

2. Once plug and play is enabled, the Device will automatically enable proxy ARP,
enable DNS proxy, and disable IP spoofing defense.
3. Once plug and play is enabled, the Device will allow those non-IP/MAC binding users
to access the Device and Internet.
4. The users with the same IP address cannot access the Internet at the same time. For
example, if a LAN user with IP address 1.1.1.1 has connected to the Device to access
the Internet, another user with IP address 1.1.1.1 cannot access the Internet through
the Device.
5. A LAN user¶s IP address cannot be the same with the Device¶s LAN/WAN interface IP
address, gateway IP address, and primary/secondary DNS server IP address;
otherwise, the user cannot access the Device and Internet.

7.7 DDNS
This section describes the Advanced > DDNS page.
Note
To ensure that DDNS operates properly, you should synchronize the system clock in
the System > Time page.
7.7.1 Introduction to DDNS
Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) is a service used to map a domain name which never
changes to a dynamic IP address which can change quite often. For example, if you have
applied for a PPPoE connection with a dynamically DVVLJQHG,3DGGUHVVIURPWKH,63¶s PPPoE
server, you can use DDNS to allow the external hosts to access the Device by a constant
domain name.
In order to use DDNS service, you should apply for a DDNS account from a DDNS service
provider. Each DDNS provider offers its own specific network services. The DDNS service
provider reserves the right to change, suspend or terminate your use of some or all network
services at any time for any reason. The DDNS service providers supported by UTT
Technologies Co., Ltd. currently provide free DDNS services, but they may charge for the
DDNS services in the future. In this case, UTT Technologies Co., Ltd. will notify you as soon
as possible; if you refuse to pay for the services, you will no longer be able to use them. During
the free phase, UTT Technologies Co., Ltd. does not guarantee that the DDNS services can
meet your requirements and will be uninterrupted, and UTT does not guarantee the timeliness,
security and accuracy of the services.
So far, UTT Technologies Co., Ltd. only supports two DDNS service providers:
iplink.com.cn and 3322.org. It will successively support other DDNS service providers in
the future.

7.8 Advanced DHCP
This section describes the Advanced > DHCP pages.
7.8.1 Introduction to DHCP
7.8.1.1 Overview
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a framework for passing
configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network. DHCP allows a host to be configured
automatically, eliminating the need for intervention by a network administrator. DHCP is
built on a client/server model, where one or more DHCP servers assign network
addresses and deliver other TCP/IP configuration parameters to DHCP clients (hosts). In
addition, DHCP can guarantee to avoid allocation of duplicate IP addresses, and to
reassign the IP addresses that are no longer used.
DHCP supports three mechanisms for IP address allocation:
Ɣ Automatic allocation: DHCP server assigns a permanent IP address to a client.
Ɣ Dynamic allocation: DHCP server assigns an IP address to a client for a limited
period of time, which is called a lease. The client may extend its lease with
subsequent request, and it may release the address back to the server.
Ɣ Manual allocation: A network administrator assigns an IP address to a client, and
DHCP server is used simply to convey the assigned address to the client.
A particular network will use one or more of these mechanisms, according to the actual
requirements. The dynamic allocation is the only mechanism that allows automatic reuse
of addresses that are no longer needed by the client.
7.8.1.2 DHCP Operation Process
The following describes the basic operation principle of DHCP, including the process of
requesting for a new IP address, the process of renewing an IP address, and the process
of releasing an IP address.
1. Requesting for an IP Address

Figure 7-21 Requesting for an IP Address from a DHCP Server
As shown in Figure 7-20, the process of a DHCP client requesting for an IP address from a
DHCP server falls into four basic phases:
zDHCP Discover: It is the phase that the DHCP client locates a DHCP server to ask
for an IP address. The client broadcasts a DHCPDISCOVER message on its local
physical subnet. Only DHCP server(s) will respond it.
zDHCP Inform: It is the phase that one or more DHCP servers) offer an IP address to
the DHCP client. Once received the DHCPDISCOVER message, a DHCP server will
send a DHCPOFFER unicast message which includes configuration parameters
(such as an IP address, a domain name, a lease, and so on) to the DHCP client.
zDHCP Request: It is the phase that the DHCP client accepts the offer, chooses an IP
address and requests the address. The client may receive DHCPOFFER messages
from more than one DHCP server. Then the client chooses one from them, and
broadcasts a DHCPREQUEST message to formally request the offered IP address.
The DHCPREQUEST message also includes the server identifier option to indicate
which message it has selected, implicitly declining all other DHCPOFFER messages.
Once received the DHCPREQUEST message, those servers not selected will release the
IP addresses offered to the client.
If the configuration parameters sent to the client in the DHCPOFFER unicast
message by the DHCP Server are invalid (a misconfiguration error exists), the client
returns a DHCPDECLINE broadcast message to the DHCP Server to reject the
configuration assigned.
zDHCP Acknowledgement: It is the phase that the DHCP server officially assigns the
address to the client. Once received the DHCPREQUEST message, the selected
DHCP server will respond with a DHCPACK unicast message containing the IP address
and other configuration parameters for the requesting client. Then the client will accept
and apply the IP address and other configuration parameters.
2. Renewing an IP Address
zAn IP address dynamically allocated by a DHCP server for a client has a lease. The
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bga9.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 154
DHCP server will reclaim the IP address if the lease expires, so the client has to renew
the lease in order to use the IP address longer. When one half of the lease time has
expired, the client will send a DHCPREQUEST message to the DHCP server, asking to
extend the lease for the given configuration. The DHCP server will respond with a
DHCPACK message if it agrees to renew the lease.
If the requesting IP address in the DHCPREQUEST message is inconsistent with the
allocated IP address whose lease GRHVQ¶W expire, the DHCP server will respond with
a DHCPNAK message.
3. Releasing the IP Address
zWhen a DHCP client no longer needs the IP address assigned by a DHCP server, it
relinquishes the address by sending a DHCPRELEASE message to the DHCP server.
The address returns to the address pool for reassignment. Besides the DHCP client
sets its IP address to 0.0.0.0.
7.8.1.3 DHCP Message types
DHCP is built on a client/server model. A client and a server may exchange the types of
messages listed in the below table.
Message Type Description
DHCPDISCOVER Broadcast by a client to find available DHCP servers.
DHCPOFFER Response from a server to a DHCPDISCOVER message and offering IP
address and other parameters.
DHCPREQUEST
Message from a client to servers that does one of the following:
Ɣ Requests the parameters offered by one of the servers, which implicitly
declines all other offers.
Ɣ Requests the extension of a lease on a particular address.
Ɣ Verifies a previously allocated address after a system or network change
(a restart for example).
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgaa.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 155
DHCPDECLINE Message from a client to server indicating that the offered address is already in
use.
DHCPACK Acknowledgement message from a server to a client with configuration
parameters, including IP address.
DHCPNAK
Negative acknowledgement message from a server to a client, refusing the
request for parameters. If the client receives a DHCPNAK message, it will
restart the configuration process.
DHCPRELEASE Message from a client to a server cancelling remainder of a lease and
relinquishing network address.
DHCPINFORM
Message from a client that already has an IP address (manually configured, for
example), requesting further network configuration parameters (DNS server¶s
IP address, for example) from the DHCP server. This message is used very
rare.

7.8.2 Introduction to DHCP Feature of the Device
According to the different settings, the Device can act as a DHCP client, DHCP server or
DHCP relay agent. The following sections describe their characteristics respectively.
Note
If the DHCP client is enabled on a physical interface, neither the DHCP server nor
DHCP relay agent function can be enabled on it. If both the DHCP server and DHCP
relay agent function are enabled on the interface, the DHCP server has higher priority.
That is, the Device will chose the DHCP server to process the DHCP messages
preferentially; and it will chose the DHCP relay agent to process the messages only
when the DHCP server isn¶t able to process them.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgab.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 156
7.8.2.1 Introduction to DHCP Server
When acting as a DHCP server, the Device can allocate network addresses and deliver
other TCP/IP configuration parameters (such as gateway IP address, DNS server IP
address, WINS server IP address, etc.) to the LAN hosts.
7.8.2.1.1 Address Conflict Detection Method
In order to prevent the DHCP server from assigning duplicate addresses that cause the
address conflict, the DHCP server should probe the address before assigning an address
to a DHCP client. The device supports two address detection methods: ARP and ICMP.
ARP is the system default method which is enabled forever and is not configurable. ICMP
method is configurable, and can be disabled.
ƔARP Method: Before assigning an address to a DHCP client, DHCP will send ARP
packets to the address to detect whether it is already in use firstly. After sending two
ARP packets in succession, if no response is received, the DHCP server assumes
that the address is free. Else, the DHCP server assumes that the address is in use,
and will try another address and so on, until it finds a free address.
ƔICMP Method: Once passed the ARP detection, the address needs to be detected
further by ICMP. The DHCP server will send ICMP ECHO REQUEST packets (one
packet at a time) to detect if it is already in use. After sending the specified maximum
number of ICMP packets in succession, if no response is received, the DHCP server
assumes that the address is free and assigns the address to the requesting client.
Else, the DHCP server assumes that the address is in use, and will try another
address and so on, until it finds a free address and assigns it to the client.
The maximum number of ICMP ECHO REQUEST packets is specified by the
parameter ICMP Ping Packets, and the maximum amount of time the DHCP server
waits for a ping reply packet is specified by the parameter ICMP Ping Timeout. By
default, the value of ICMP Ping Packets is 2, and the value of DHCP Ping Timeout¶s
value is 500 milliseconds. If you want to disable the ICMP detection, please set the
DHCP Ping Packets to 0.
7.8.2.1.2 DHCP Address Pool
The DHCP server assigns an IP address to a requesting client from a DHCP address pool,
which also can be configured to provide other TCP/IP configuration parameters to the
client, such as the DNS Server, gateway IP address, etc. The Device supports multiple
address pools, so you can easily define multiple subnets in the LAN. Before configuring an
address pool, you should specify a physical interface to which the pool is bound.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgac.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 157
7.8.2.1.3 DHCP Manual Binding
Through DHCP manual binding, you can assign a static IP address to a specific host
(client). You may create a manual binding by mapping the IP address to the host¶s MAC
address, Remote ID or Client ID. The DHCP server will always assign the specified IP
address to the host that matches the manual binding.
7.8.2.1.4 IP Address Allocation Policy
A DHCP server assigns an IP address to a client based on some parameters contained in
the message sent by the client. The parameters are Remote ID, Circuit ID (i.e., Relay
Agent ID), giaddr (i.e., Relay Agent IP), Client ID and MAC address, and the priorities of
them are descending. Only the highest priority parameter will be effect when more than
one parameter is configured. When a matching parameter is found, the DHCP server will
assign an address according to this parameter related configuration. If no matching
parameter is found, the DHCP server will find an IP address that can be allocated
according to the default sequence.
Specifically, a DHCP server assigns an IP address to a client according to the following
sequence:
1˅ If the message sent by the client contains Remote ID option, the DHCP server will
search the DHCP manual binding list to find out if there is an IP address bound to this
Remote ID. If a match is found, the DHCP server will assign the specified IP address
to the client. Else, do the next step.
2˅ If the message sent by the client contains Circuit ID option, the DHCP server will
search the DHCP address pool list to find out if there is an address pool which is
configured with this Circuit ID. If a match is found, the DHCP server will assign an IP
address from this address pool. Else, do the next step.
3˅ If the giaddr field contained in a message sent by a client is not 0, the DHCP server
will search the DHCP address pool list to find out if there is an address pool which is
configured with this giaddr. If a match is found, the DHCP server will assign an IP
address from this address pool. Else, do the next step.
4˅ If the message sent by the client contains Client ID option, the DHCP server will
search the DHCP manual binding list to find out if there is an IP address bound to this
Client ID. If a match is found, the DHCP server will assign the specified IP address to
the client. Else, do the next step.
5˅ The DHCP server will search the DHCP manual binding list to find out if there is an IP
address bound to the MAC address of the client. If a match is found, the DHCP server
will assign the specified IP address to the client. Else, do the next step.
6˅ If the message sent by the client contains Requested IP Address option, the DHCP
server will search the DHCP address pool list to find out if there is an address pool
contains this Requested IP Address. If a match is found, and this Requested IP
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgad.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 158
Address is free, the DHCP server will assign it to the client. If a match is found, but
this Requested IP address is in use, the DHCP server will try to assign another
address dynamically from the address pool. Else, do the next step.
7˅ If no matching parameter found, the DHCP server will find an assignable IP address
from each DHCP address pool in the chronological order of creation. Once an
assignable IP address is found, the DHCP server will assign it to the client.
8˅ If no IP address is assignable, the DHCP server will report an error.
Note
1) You may create a manual binding by mapping an IP address to a host¶s MAC address,
Remote ID or Client ID. The priorities of Remote ID, Client ID and MAC Address are
descending. Only the highest priority parameter will be in effect when two or three of
them are configured. For example, if there is a manual binding that contains an IP
address bound to Remote ID and Client ID, the Client ID will be of no effect. That is, if
a message sent by a client contains a mismatched Remote ID option, even if it
contains a matched Client ID option, the client FDQ¶W obtain the specified IP address.
2) If a message sent by a client contains Circuit ID or giaddr option that matches a
DHCP address pool, the DHCP server will search the manual bindings belong to this
address pool to find out if there is a DHCP manual binding contains the client¶s Client
ID or MAC address. If a match is found, the DHCP server will assign the specified IP
address to the client. Else, the DHCP server will try to find out if there is a DHCP
manual binding contains this Requested IP Address. If a match is found, the DHCP
server will assign it to the client. Else, the DHCP server will try to assign an address
dynamically from this address pool.
3) If a message sent by a client matches a DHCP manual binding, but doesn¶t match the
Circuit ID or giaddr option that is specified in the related DHCP address pool, the
DHCP server will assign the address that is specified in this DHCP manual binding to
the client.
4) If a message sent by a client matches a DHCP manual binding, but the specified IP
address is already in use by another client (that is, an address conflict is detected),
the DHCP server won¶t assign any IP address to the client.
5) If a message sent by a client contains Circuit ID or giaddr option that matches a
DHCP address pool, but there is no free address in this pool, the DHCP server will
assign an address from other DHCP address pools to the client.
7.8.2.2 Introduction to DHCP Client
When acting as a DHCP client, the Device can dynamically obtain an IP address and
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgae.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 159
other TCP/IP configuration parameters from a DHCP server. All of the physical interfaces
support DHCP client feature, and you can enable DHCP client on each interface at the
same time.
In order to meet different needs, DHCP client can use client ID to identify itself, send
DHCPREQUEST messages in broadcast or unicast mode, and require DHCP server to
respond in broadcast or unicast mode.
The Device also supports AutoIP feature, that is, if the DHCP client cannot obtain an IP
address via DHCP, it will automatically assign an IP address (in the range of
169.254.1.0/16 through 169.254.254.0/16) to itself. And the DHCP client can ascertain
that the address is not used by another host.
7.8.2.3 Introduction to DHCP Relay Agent
When acting as a DHCP relay agent, the Device can forwards DHCP messages between
DHCP servers and clients. DHCP relay agents are used to forward requests and replies
between clients and servers when they are not on the same physical subnet. Then the
DHCP clients that reside on multiple physical subnets can use the same DHCP server.
Using DHCP relay agent can help you save cost and achieve centralized management.
The following describes the basic operation principle of DHCP relay agent.
1. When starting, a DHCP client will start the DHCP initialization procedure during that a
DHCPDISCOVER message will be broadcasted on its local physical subnet.
2. If a DHCP server that resides on the local subnet and is configured and operating
correctly, the DHCP client will directly obtain configuration parameters such as an IP
address from it. In this case, no DHCP relay agent is required.
3. If a DHCP server that doesn¶t reside on the local subnet, there must be a DHCP relay
agent on the local subnet to receive the message and then generate a new DHCP
message to send to the specified DHCP server that resides on another subnet.
4. After receiving the DHCPREQUEST message, the DHCP sever will unicast a
DHCPOFFER message to the DHCP relay agent, which includes an IP address and
other configuration parameters. After receiving the DHCPOFFER message, the
DHCP relay agent will process and forward the message to the requesting client.
5. There are multiple such interactions during the configuration process.
The Device provides the parameters of Option and Policy to specify the forwarding policy
of DHCP messages. When a DHCP relay agent receives a client-originated DHCP
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgaf.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 160
message, it will process message according to the settings of these two parameters, see
the following table for detailed description:
Option Policy The message is from another relay
agent, and already contains option 82.
The message is from a client directly,
and doesn¶t contain option 82.
insert
drop Drop the message.
The relay agent will insert option 82 into
the message before forwarding it.
keep The relay agent will retain the existing
option 82 in the message and forward it.
replace
The relay agent will replace (overwrite)
the existing option 82 with its option 82 in
the message before forwarding it.
disabled
drop Drop the message.
Forward directly.
keep Forward directly.
replace Forward directly.
Table 7-3 DHCP Relay Agent Forwarding Policies
The following explains the meanings of the parameters in the above table.
Option 82: It indicates the relay agent information option.
Option: It is used to enable or disable the Device to insert option 82 before forwarding a
client-originated DHCP message that doesn¶t contain option 82. By default, the relay
agent will forward the message directly. If you want to insert option 82 into the message
before forwarding it, please select insert. Note that, when the Option is set to disabled,
the DHCP relay agent will drop or forward the message directly.
Policy: It is used to configure the reforwarding policy for a DHCP relay agent (what a relay
agent should do if a message already contains option 82). A DHCP relay agent may
receive a message from another relay agent that already contains relay information. By
default, the relay agent will retain the existing option 82 in the message and forward it. If
this behavior is not suitable for your network, you can set Policy to change it.
7.8.2.4 Introduction to Raw Option
DHCP provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP
network. Configuration parameters and other control information are carried in tagged
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgb0.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 161
data items that are stored in the options field of the DHCP message. The data items
themselves are also called options. For detailed information about DHCP options, see
RFC 2132, with updates in RFC 3942.
Most DHCP options are predefined in RFC, although new options will come out with
DHCP development. The Device provides Raw Option feature to support for the
predefined options, and also new options. The raw options can be applied to both DHCP
sever and DHCP client.

an organization name followed by a period and an extension that indicates the type of
organization, such as utt.com.cn. This domain name is appended to the local host
name to create the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for the host. When querying
for a host name, the system will append this domain name to the host name for name
resolution, thus the DHCP client host who has a host name can access the network.
DHCP Relay IP: It specifies the relay agent IP address for the DHCP address pool. It
can be a parameter used by address allocation policy. Refer to section 7.7.2.1.4 IP
Address Allocation Policy for details.
Enable AutoIP: It allows you to enable or disable AuotIP. Select it to permit the
address obtained by a DHCP client through AutoIP to coexist with the address
assigned by a DHCP server.
Response Mode: It specifies the mode in which DHCP server sends the DHCP
response messages to the client. The available options are Client Determine,
Unicast and Broadcast.
ƔClient Determine: It indicates that the DHCP server sends the DHCP response
messages in the mode required by the client.
ƔUnicast: It indicates that the DHCP server unicasts the DHCP response
messages to the client.
ƔBroadcast: It indicates that the DHCP server broadcasts the DHCP response
messages to the client.
NetBIOS Node Type: It specifies the NetBIOS node type for Microsoft DHCP clients.
There are four NetBIOS nodes types, and each node type resolves NetBIOS names
differently.

ƔB-Node: It indicates a broadcast node that uses broadcasts for name resolution.
ƔP-Node: It indicates a peer-to-peer node that uses a WINS server to resolve
NetBIOS names. P-Node does not use broadcasts but queries the WINS server
directly.
ƔM-Node: It indicates a mixed node that is a combination of a B-Node and
P-Node. By default, an M-Node functions as a B-Node firstly. If the broadcast
name query is unsuccessful, it uses a WINS server.
ƔH-Node: It indicates a hybrid node that is a combination of a P-Node and B-Node.
By default, an H-Node functions as a P-Node firstly. If the unicast name query to
the WINS server is unsuccessful, it uses broadcasts.
Relay Agent ID: It specifies the relay agent identifier for the DHCP address pool. It
can be a parameter used by address allocation policy. Refer to section 7.7.2.1.4 IP
Address Allocation Policy for details. There are three types of formats.

7.8.7 Configuration Examples for DHCP
7.8.7.1 Configuration Example for the DHCP Server
There are two typical types of DHCP network topologies:
Ɣ The DHCP server(s) and DHCP clients are on the same subnet so they can directly
exchange DHCP messages.
Ɣ The DHCP server(s) and DHCP clients are not on the same subnet so they need
communicate via a DHCP relay agent.
The DHCP server configuration for these two types is the same.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgc3.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 180
1. Network Requirements
In this example, the Device acts as a DHCP server to dynamically assign the IP addresses
to the clients that reside on the same subnet. The Device¶s LAN interface IP address is
192.168.16.1/24.
We need to create two address pools (pool1 and pool2). The pool1¶s address range is
from 192.168.16.2/24 to 192.168.16.101/24, primary and secondary DNS servers IP
addresses are 202.96.209.5 and 202.96.199.133, domain name is utt.com.cn and lease
time is 3600 seconds. And it uses Device¶s LAN IP address (that is, 192.168.16.1/24) as
the default gateway address. Leave the default values for the other parameters.
The pool2¶s address range is from 192.168.16.102/24 to 192.168.16.254/24 and lease
time is 7200 seconds. The pool2¶s primary and secondary DNS servers, domain name,
and default gateway IP address have the same values with pool1¶s.
Besides, we need to create a DHCP manual binding to the host that needs a static IP
address. The host¶s MAC address is 000795a81c3d, client ID is 01000795a81c3d which
is formed by concatenating the media type and MAC address, and host name is test. The
host wants to use 192.168.16.10/24 as its IP address and binding1 as its user name. It is
obvious that the host belongs to the pool1.

7.8.7.3 Configuration Example for the DHCP Relay Agent
1. Network Requirements
In this example, the DHCP clients reside on the subnet 192.168.16.0/254, and the DHCP
server¶s IP address is 200.200.200.254/24. Because the DHCP server and DHCP clients
reside on the different subnets, the Device acting as a DHCP relay agent is deployed to
forward DHCP messages between the DHCP server and DHCP clients. The DHCP relay
agent is enabled on the LAN interface, which is connected to the subnet where DHCP
clients reside. Then DHCP clients can obtain an IP address and other TCP/IP
configuration parameters from the DHCP server dynamically.
Note that in order to assign appropriate IP addresses to the DHCP clients, on the DHCP
server you should create a DHCP address pool whose address range is from
192.168.16.2 to 192.168.16.254. And also you should create a static route whose
destination network is 192.168.16.0/24. For more information about static route, please

7.8.7.5 Comprehensive Example for DHCP
When acting as a DHCP server, the Device supports up to ten DHCP address pools. You
can use different Relay agent IP addresses or IDs to distinguish them. In most cases, the
DHCP server will assign the addresses from the same address pool to the clients that
have the same relay agent IP address or ID with this pool¶s, then these clients will reside
on the same subnet.
1. Network Requirements
In this example, there is a college who wants to realize the unified management of the
campus network hosts. We plan to divide the campus network into several subnets, one
subnet per building (office or dormitory building), so that the hosts residing on the same
building will be on the same subnet. We deploy a Device acting as a DHCP server on the
network center, and deploy a Devices acting as a DHCP relay agent on each building.
Each DHCP relay agent Device is connected to the center DHCP server Device. And the
hosts residing on each building are connected to a relay agent Device, so that these hosts
can access the network center through the related relay agent Device.
See the following network topology, we respectively call these buildings building1,
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgcc.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 7 Advanced Setup
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 189
building2 ... building10, and call the Devices residing on each building DHCP Relay1,
DHCP Realy2 ... DHCP Realy10. Each relay agent Device has its own ID.
The Device residing on the center network acts as a DHCP server, and the DHCP address
pools are bound to the LAN interface with IP address 200.200.200.254/24.
The Devices residing on each building act as the DHCP relay agents. The DHCP relay
agent is enabled on each Device¶s LAN interface. The hosts residing on each building are
connected to the related Device¶s LAN interface respectively, and they will act as clients to
request addresses from the DHCP server. The following table lists the name, relay agent
ID, WAN IP address and LAN IP address for each relay agent Device. Also it lists the IP
address space of each subnet where the client hosts reside.
Name WAN IP address LAN IP Address Client Subnet Relay Agent ID

Table 7-4 DHCP Relay Agent IP Addresses and IDs - Comprehensive Example
In order to ensure that the hosts residing on each building obtain the addresses in the
range of the specified subnet respectively, we need to create ten DHCP address pools on
the DHCP server Device. These DHCP address pools¶ settings are as follows:

Ɣ Every DHCP address pool¶s number of addresses is 253, which is the maximum
number of valid addresses in each subnet where the client hosts reside.
Ɣ Every DHCP address pool¶s lease time is 3600 seconds, primary and secondary DNS
VHUYHUV¶ IP addresses are 202.96.209.6 and 202.96.199.133.
Ɣ Their relay agent IDs are Test_Relay1, Test_Relay2 ... Test_Relay10 respectively,
which are in ASCII format.
Note that you also should create ten static routes whose destination networks are the
subnets where the client hosts reside. For more information about static route, please
refer to section 7.1.1 Static Route.
For those DHCP relay agent Devices, the DHCP relay agent settings are as follows:
Ɣ Every DHCP relay agent is applied on the LAN interface.
Ɣ Every DHCP relay agent¶s DHCP Server 1 is 200.200.200.254.
Ɣ Every DHCP relay agent¶sOption is insert.
Ɣ Their Relay Agent IDs are Test_Relay1,Test_Relay2 ... Test_Relay10 respectively,
which are in ASCII format.
Note that since the DHCP server uses the relay agent ID to distinguish each address pool,
we need set Option to insert for each relay agent. The DHCP relay agent will insert relay
agent ID before forwarding a client-originated DHCP message; thus the DHCP server can
select a matched address pool according to the relay agent ID to assign an address to the
requesting client.

7.9.1 Port Mirroring
7.9.1.1 Introduction to Port Mirroring
The port mirroring allows an administrator to mirror and monitor network traffic. It copies
the traffic from the specified ports to another port where the traffic can be monitored with
an external network analyzer. Then the administrator can perform traffic monitoring,
performance analysis and fault diagnosis.
7.9.1.2 Port Mirroring Setup

Enable Port Mirroring: It allows you enable or disable port mirroring. If you want to
enable port mirroring on the Device, please select this check box. By default, the LAN
Port 1 is the mirroring port that can¶t be changed. If the port mirroring is enabled, the
LAN Port 1 will mirror the traffic of the other LAN ports
¾Click the Save button to save the port mirroring settings.
Note
If the LAN switch ports belong to different VLANs, only the traffic of the ports on the
same VLAN as the Port 1 can be mirrored.

7.9.2 Port-Based VLAN
7.9.2.1 Introduction to VLAN
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices that form a logical LAN
segment, that is, a broadcast domain. The members on the same VLAN can communicate
with each other. The traffic will not disturb among different VLANs, that is, any traffic
(unicast, broadcast or multicast) within a VLAN doesn¶t flow to another VLAN. The VLAN
feature offers the benefits of both security and performance. VLAN is used to isolate traffic
between different users which provides better security. Limiting the broadcast traffic within
the same VLAN broadcast domain also enhances performance.
The Device provides port-based VLAN, which is defined according to the switch ports on
the Device. You can set a VLAN ID to each switch port. The ports that have the same
VLAN ID will be grouped into a VLAN. The ports that belong to the same VLAN can
communicate with each other, but the ports that belong to the different VLANV FDQ¶t
communicate. For example, if a port belongs to VLAN 1 and another port belongs to VLAN
2, the two ports will not be able to communicate with each other.
7.9.2.2 Port-Based VLAN Setup

Port 1 VLAN ID ~ Port 5 VLAN ID: They specify the VLAN IDs of the five switch
ports. It allows you to set a VLAN ID to each switch port for each switch port
respectively. The ports that have the same VLAN ID will be grouped into a VLAN,
which is independent of the other ports.

Note
1. The ports that have the same VLAN ID will be grouped into a VLAN. The ports on the
same VLAN can communicate with each other, but the ports that belong to the
different VLANVFDQ¶t communicate.
2. By default, all the LAN switch ports are members of the same VLAN. The most
complex case is that each port is grouped into a VLAN respectively. For example, see
Figure 7-52, Port 1 and Port 2 are grouped into a VLAN (VLAN 1), Port 3, Port 4 and
Port 5 are grouped to the different VLANs (VLAN 2, VLAN 3 and VLAN 4)
respectively.
3. The ports within a LAG should be grouped into the same VLAN.

Chapter 8 NAT
This chapter describes how to configure and use NAT features, including port forwarding,
DMZ hosts, NAT rule and UPnP.
8.1 Port Forwarding
This section describes the NAT > Port Forwarding page, which allows you to configure
port forwarding rules.
8.1.1 Introduction to Port Forwarding
By default, NAT is enabled on the Device, so the Device will block all the requests initiated
from outside users. In some cases, the outside users want to access the LAN internal
servers through the Device. To achieve this purpose, you need to create port forwarding
rules or DMZ hosts on the Device.
Using port forwarding, you can create the mapping between <external IP address:
external port> and <internal IP address: internal port>, then all the requests from outside
users to the specified external IP address: port on the Device will be forwarded to the
mapped local server, so the outside users can access the service offered by the local
server.
For example, if you want to allow the local SMTP server (IP address: 192.168.16.88) to be
available to the outside users, you can create a port forwarding rule: external IP address is
WAN1 IP address (200.200.201.88 in this example), external port is 2100, internal IP
address is 192.168.16.88, and internal port is 25. Then all the requests for SMTP from
outside users to 200.200.201.88:2100 will be forwarded to 192.168.16.88:25.

8.1.2 Port Forwarding Settings
Figure 8-1 Port Forwarding Settings
Protocol: It specifies the transport protocol used by the service. The available
options are TCP,UDP and GRE.
Start External Port: It specifies the lowest port number provided by the Device. The
external ports are opened for outside users to access.
Internal IP Address: It specifies the IP address of the local host that provides the
service.
Start Internal Port: It specifies the lowest port number of the service provided by the
LAN host. The Start External Port and Start Internal Port can be different.
Port Count: It specifies the number of service ports provided by the LAN host. If the
service uses only one port number, enter 1. The maximum value is 20. For example,
if the start internal port is 21, the start external port is 2001 and the port count is 10,
then the internal port range is from 21 to 30, and the external port range is from 2001
to 2010.
Bind to: It specifies the NAT rule to which this port forwarding rule is bound. The port
forwarding rule will use the NAT rule¶s external IP address as its external IP address.
The available options are:
Ɣ Each EasyIP NAT rule¶sID: it stands for the corresponding NAT rule respectively.
ƔWANx (x: 1, 2, 3, 4): It stands for the system reserved NAT rule bound to the
Internet connection on the selected WAN interface. The reserved NAT rule uses
the WAN interface¶s IP address as its external IP address.

If you want to add one or more port forwarding rules, do the following:
Step 1 Go to the NAT > Port Forwarding page, and then click the New button or
select the Port Forwarding Settings tab to go to the setup page.
Step 2 Specify the Protocol, Internal IP Address and Start Internal Port as required.
Step 3 Specify the Start External Port as required. The Start External Port and Start
Internal Port can be different.
Step 4 If the open service uses a range of consecutive ports, you need specify the
Port Count.
Step 5 Select a NAT rule from the Bind to drop-down list as required. The port
forwarding rule will use the selected NAT rule¶s external IP address as its
external IP address.
Step 6 Click the Save button to save the settings. You can view the port forwarding rule
in the Port Forwarding List.
Step 7 If you want to add another new port forwarding rule, please repeat the above
steps.
Note
If you want to delete one or more port forwarding rules, select the leftmost check
boxes of them in the Port Forwarding List, and then click the Delete button.
8.1.5 Configuration Examples for Port Forwarding
8.1.5.1 Example One
An organization wants a LAN server (IP Address: 192.168.16.88) to open syslog service
(Protocol: UDP; Port: 514) to the outside users. And the Device will use 2514 as the
external port and the WAN1 IP address (200.200.200.88 in this example) as the external
IP address. Then all the requests for syslog from outside users to 200.200.200.88:2514
will be forwarded to 192.168.16.99:514.
The following figure shows the detailed settings.

An organization wants a LAN server (IP Address: 192.168.16.100) to open ftp service
(Protocol: TCP; Port: 20, 21) to the outside users. And the Device will use 2020 and 2021
as the external ports and the WAN2 IP address (200.200.201.18 in this example) as the
external IP address. As the ftp service uses two ports, so we need set the Port Count to 2.
Then all the requests for ftp from outside users to 200.200.201.18:2020 or
200.200.201.18:2021 will be forwarded to 192.168.16.100:20 or 192.168.16.100:21.
The following figure shows the detailed settings.
Figure 8-4 Port Forwarding Settings - Example Two
8.1.5.3 Example Three
An organization obtains eight public IP addresses (from 218.1.21.0/29 to 218.1.21.7/29)

from the ISP. Therein, 218.1.21.1/29 is used as the Internet connection¶s gateway IP
address, 218.1.21.2/29 is used as the Device¶s WAN1 interfacH¶s IP address.
The organization wants a LAN server (IP Address: 192.168.16.88) to open SMTP service
(Protocol: TCP; Port: 25) to the outside users. And the Device will use 2025 as the
external port and 218.1.21.3 as the external IP address.
Firstly, we need to create a NAT rule, and set its External IP Address to 218.1.21.3, see
section 8.3.5 How to Add the NAT Rules for detailed information. Then we need to
create the port forwarding rule, and select the NAT rule¶sID (4 in this example) from the
Bind to drop-down list.

8.2 DMZ Host
This section describes the NAT > DMZ page.
8.2.1 Introduction to DMZ host
The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host allows one local host to be exposed to the Internet for
the use of a special service such as online game or video conferencing. When receiving
the requests initiated from outside users, the Device will directly forward these requests to
the specified DMZ host.
For the Device that has multiple WAN interfaces, it allows you to create one global DMZ
host, and several interface DMZ hosts which are bound to each WAN interface
respectively.
ƔGlobal DMZ host: You can access the global DMZ host through different Internet
connections at the same time.
ƔInterface DMZ host: You can only access the interface DMZ host through the
corresponding Internet connection.
Note
When a local host is designated as the DMZ host, it loses firewall protection provided
by the Device. As the DMZ host is exposed to many exploits from the Internet, it may
be used to attack your network.

8.2.3 The Priorities of Port Forwarding and DMZ Host
The port forwarding has higher priority than the DMZ host. When receiving a request
packet initiated from an outside user, the Device will firstly search the Port Forwarding
List to find out if there is a port forwarding rule matching the destination IP address and
port of the packet. If a match is found, the Device will forward the packet to the mapped
local host. Else, the Device will try to find out if there is an available DMZ host.
And the interface DMZ host has higher priority than the global DMZ host. Only when there
is no interface DMZ host available to the request packet, the Device will choose the global
DMZ host.

8.3 NAT Rule
8.3.1 Introduction to NAT
The NAT (Network Address Translation) is an Internet standard that is used to map one IP
address space (i.e., Intranet) to another IP address space (i.e., Internet). The NAT is
designed to alleviate the shortage of IP addresses, that is, it allows all the LAN hosts to
share a single or a small group of IP addresses: On the Internet, there is only a single
device using a single or a small group of public IP addresses; but the LAN hosts can use
any range of private IP addresses, and these IP addresses are not visible from the
Internet. As the internal network can be effectively isolated from the outside world, the
NAT can also provide the benefit of network security assurance.
The Device provides flexible NAT features, and the following sections will describe them in
detail.
8.3.1.1 NAT Address Space Definitions
To ensure that NAT operates properly, the Device uses and maintains two address
spaces:
ƔInternal IP address: It indicates the IP address that is assigned to a LAN host by the
administrator. It is usually a private IP address.
ƔExternal IP address: It indicates the IP address that is assigned to the Device¶s
Internet connection by the ISP. It is a legal public IP address that can represent one or
more internal IP addresses to the outside world.
8.3.1.2 NAT Types
The Device provides three types of NAT: One2One,EasyIP and Passthrough.
ƔOne2One (One to One): It indicates static network address translation. It is always
referred to as Basic NAT, which provides a one to one mapping between an internal
and an external IP address. In this type of NAT, IP address need be changed, but port
needn¶t.
One to One NAT can be used to allow the outside users to access a LAN server: In the
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge2.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 211
local network, the LAN server still use the private IP address, which is provided to the
LAN hosts to access; and on the Internet, the Device will assign an external IP address
to the local server, then the outside users can using this external IP address to access
the server through the Device.
ƔEasyIP: It indicates network address and port translation (NAPT). Since it is the most
common type of NAT, it is often simply referred to as NAT. NAPT provides many-to-one
mappings between multiple internal IP addresses and a single external IP addresses,
that is, these multiple internal IP addresses will be translated to the same external IP
address. In this type of NAT, to avoid ambiguity in the handling of returned packets, it
must dynamically assign a TCP/UDP port to an outgoing session and change the
packets¶ source port to the assigned port before forwarding them. Besides, the Device
must maintain a translation table so that return packets can be correctly translated
back.
ƔPassthrough: It indicates bypassing NAT when NAT is enabled. If you enable NAT, the
LAN hosts must match a NAT rule when accessing outside hosts. So if you do not want
to perform NAT for some LAN hosts, you can use this function to bypass NAT for those
hosts. It is often used for some particular applications that do not support NAT well,
such as, online game or video conferencing. To ensure that these applications run
properly, you can divide a voice and video area in the LAN, and create a
Passthrough NAT rule for the hosts in this area. Then the Device will not perform
NAT for them, that is, the packets sent by these hosts to the outside hosts will be
directly routed and forwarded.
When you obtain multiple public IP addresses from your ISP, you can create more than one
NAT rule for each type of NAT. In actual network environment, different types of NAT rules are
often used together.
8.3.1.3 The Relations of Internet Connection, NAT Rule and
Port Forwarding Rule
On the Device, the relations of the Internet connection, NAT rule and port forwarding rule
are as follows:
ƔA NAT rule should be bound to an Internet connection. It allows you bind multiple NAT
rules to the same Internet connection.
ƔA port forwarding rule should be bound to an EasyIP NAT rule (that is, the NAT rule¶s
type is EasyIP), and the port forwarding rule will use the NAT UXOH¶s external IP address
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge3.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 212
as its external IP address. It allows you bind multiple port forwarding rules to the same
EasyIP NAT rule.
ƔOnly after you have configured an Internet connection, you can create a NAT rule which
is bound to this Internet connection; and only after you have configured an EasyIP NAT
rule, you can create a port forwarding rule which is bound to this EasyIP NAT rule.
8.3.1.4 System Reserved NAT Rules
After you have finished configuring the WAN1 Internet connection through the Quick
Wizard, or configuring the WAN1 Internet connection and other connections in the Basic >
WAN page, the Device will automatically create a NAT rule for each Internet connection
respectively.
For convenience, we call them system reserved NAT rules in the manual. You can view them in
the NAT Rule List. By default, a system reserved NAT rule¶s Type is EasyIP,Bind to is the
WAN interface on which the Internet connection is established, external IP Address is 0.0.0.0
which means this NAT rule will directly use the WAN interface¶s IP address as its external IP
address.
8.3.2 NAT and Multi-WAN Load Balancing
8.3.2.1 Overview
The section 6.3 Load Balancing describes load balancing among multiple Internet
connections. In actual, that feature implementation is based on NAT feature.
8.3.2.2 Assigning Preferential Channel according to Source IP
Here, the channel stands for the NAT rule, which determines NAT type, external IP
address and Internet connection used by the LAN hosts to surf the Internet.
On the Device, you can assign a preferential channel to some LAN hosts in advance by
specifying the NAT rule¶sStart Internal IP Address and End Internal IP Address, then
the LAN hosts belong to the specified address range will preferentially use the assigned
NAT rule to access the Internet. If the assigned NAT rule is in effect, these LAN hosts can
only use this NAT rule to access the Internet. Else, the Device will take them as the free
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge4.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 213
LAN hosts (that is, the hosts that have not been assigned a preferential channel) to
process. On the Device, you can assign different preferential channel for different LAN
hosts.
8.3.2.3 Allocating Traffic according to Connection Bandwidth
On the Device, you can designate the ratio of traffic that will be allocated to each Internet
connection in advance. You can achieve this by specifying the Internet connection¶s
Weight, the connection that has larger Weight will take more traffic than the connection
that has smaller Weight.In most cases, to properly allocate traffic, you may specify each
connection¶V Weight according to the ratio of each connection¶s bandwidth.
Note that if several EasyIP NAT rules are bound to an Internet connection with multiple IP
DGGUHVVHV WKHQ WKH ,QWHUQHW FRQQHFWLRQ¶V Weight is WKH VXP RI HDFK (DV\,3 1$7 UXOH¶V
Weight.
Besides, when you have designated preferential channels for some LAN hosts, if you
specify each connection¶V Weight according to the ratio of each connection¶s bandwidth, the
ratio of each connection¶s actual traffic and the ratio of each connection¶s bandwidth may be
quite different. In this case, you can adjust each connection¶sWeight according to the actual
situation.
8.3.2.4 Two Load Balancing Policies
Note
In this section, those hosts that have not been assigned a preferential NAT rule are
called free LAN hosts.
The Load Balancing Policy is used to control and balance the traffic among multiple
Internet connections. Note that the load balancing policy only acts on the free LAN hosts.
The Load Balancing Policy is configured in the Basic > Load Balancing > Global
Settings page, and the Device provides two load balancing policies: load balancing based
on IP address and NAT session. Their implementation mechanisms are as follows.
1. Load Balancing Based on IP Address
Note that here we assume that each LAN host only has one IP address.
If you choose IP address as the load balancing policy, the Device will assign the free LAN
hosts¶ IP addresses to each EasyIP NAT rule in turn. The ratio of the numbers of the IP
addresses assigned to each EasyIP NAT rule is the same with the ratio of each rule¶s
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge5.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 214
Weight. In this case, the NAT sessions initiated from the same IP address will use the
same NAT rule, that is, a LAN host will use only one NAT rule to access the Internet.
For example, there are three EasyIP NAT rules whose Weights are 3, 2 and 1
respectively. Then in the sequence of accessing the Internet, the first, second and third
free hosts will use the first rule, the fourth and fifth free hosts will use the second rule, the
sixth free hosts will use the third rule; then the seventh, eighth and ninth free hosts will use
the first rule ... and so on.
2. Load Balancing Based on NAT Session
If you choose NAT session as the load balancing policy, the Device will assign the NAT
sessions to each EasyIP NAT rule in turn. The ratio of the numbers of the NAT sessions
assigned to each EasyIP NAT rule is the same with the ratio of each rule¶sWeight. In this
case, the NAT sessions initiated from the same LAN host will use different NAT rules, that
is, a LAN host will use several NAT rules to access the Internet.
For example, there are three EasyIP NAT rules whose Weights are 3, 2 and 1
respectively. Then in the sequence of accessing the Internet, the first, second and third
NAT sessions initiated from the free LAN hosts will use the first rule, the fourth and fifth
NAT sessions will use the second rule, the sixth NAT sessions will use the third rule; then
the seventh, eighth and ninth NAT sessions will use the first rule ... and so on.
3. How to Choose the Load Balancing Policy
In most cases, it is suggested that you choose IP address as the load balancing policy. If
you want to use some applications that need high bandwidth, such as the NetAnts,
FlashGet, Net Transport, and other multi-threaded download managers (multi-threaded
download means that it can split a file into several pieces and download the pieces
simultaneously, and merge them together once downloaded), you may choose NAT
session as the load balancing policy to take full advantage of multiple Internet connections¶
bandwidth to increase download speed. Note that even you choose NAT session as the
load balancing policy, due to that the related download website is busy or there are some
other reasons, the bandwidth of each Internet connection cannot be aggregated fully, so
some applications may be not running smoothly.
8.3.2.5 The Priorities of NAT Rules
When receiving a request packet initiated from a LAN host to access the Internet, the
Device will firstly search the NAT Rule List to find out if there is a NAT rule matching the
source IP address or the packet, that is, the host¶s IP address belongs to the address
range specified by the Start Internal IP Address and End Internal IP Address of the
NAT rule. If a match is found, the Device will assign the matched NAT rule to the host, and
then the host will use this rule to access the Internet. Else, the Device will assign the
EasyIP NAT rule to the host. If there are several EasyIP NAT rules, the Device will assign
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge6.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 215
the IP addresses or NAT sessions to each EasyIP NAT rule in turn. Then the Device will
effectively control and balance the traffic among multiple Internet connections.
8.3.3 NAT Rule Settings
The following sections describe three types of NAT rules respectively, which include:
EasyIP NAT (see Figure 8-8), One2One NAT (see Figure 8-9), and Passthrough NAT
(see Figure 8-10).
Note
When using multi-NAT (that is, you get multiple public IP addresses from your ISP) on
a WAN interface, you should enable NAT proxy ARP on the interface. The operation
is as follows: Go to the Basic > WAN > WAN List page, click the Edit hyperlink of the
related Internet connection to go to its setup page, click the Advanced Options, and
then select Nat from the Proxy ARP drop-down list, lastly click the Save button.
8.3.3.1 EasyIP NAT Rule Settings
Figure 8-8 EasyIP NAT Rule Settings
NAT Type: It specifies the type of the NAT rule. The available options are EasyIP,
One2One, and Passthrough. Here please select EasyIP.
External IP Address: It specifies the external IP address to which the LAN hosts¶ IP
addressed are mapped. A system reserved NAT rule¶s external IP address is 0.0.0.0,
which means that the rule will use the related WAN interface¶s IP address as its
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge7.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 216
external IP address; and it is non-editable. A user-defined NAT rule¶s external IP
address can be neither 0.0.0.0 nor the WAN interface¶s IP address, that is, you can
only use the other public IP addresses provided by your ISP as its external IP
addresses.
Start Internal IP Address and End Internal IP Address: They specify the internal
address range of the NAT rule. The LAN hosts that belong to this address range will
preferential use the NAT rule.
Weight: It specifies the weight of the NAT rule. It should be a number between 1 and
255. The default value is 1.
Bind to: It specifies an Internet connection to which the NAT rule is bound. The LAN
hosts that match the NAT rule will access the Internet through this Internet
connection.
Description: It specifies the description of the NAT rule.
¾Save: Click it to save the NAT rule settings.
8.3.3.2 One2One NAT Rule Settings
Figure 8-9 One2One NAT Rule Settings
NAT Type: It specifies the type of the NAT rule. The available options are EasyIP,
One2One, and Passthrough. Here please select One2One.
Start External IP Address: It specifies the start external IP address to which the start
internal IP address is mapped.
Start Internal IP Address and End Internal IP Address: They specify the internal
address range of the NAT rule. The LAN hosts that belong to this address range will
use the NAT rule.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge8.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 217
Bind to: It specifies an Internet connection to which the NAT rule is bound. The LAN
hosts that match the NAT rule will access the Internet through this Internet
connection.
Description: It specifies the description of the NAT rule.
¾Save: Click it to save the NAT rule settings.
Note
1. When creating a One2One NAT rule, you should set the Start External IP Address,
and the number of the external IP addresses is the same with the number of internal
IP addresses, which is determined by the Start Internal IP Address and End
Internal IP Address. For example, if the Start Internal IP Address is 192.168.16.6,
End Internal IP Address is 192.168.16.8, and Start External IP Address is
200.200.200.116, then 192.168.16.6, 192.168.16.7, and 192.168.16.8 will be mapped
to 200.200.200.116, 200.200.200.117, and 200.200.200.118 respectively.
2. In order to make both LAN hosts and Internet hosts can access a One2One NAT
rule¶s external IP addresses (that is, public IP addresses), after you finished
configuring the One2One NAT rule, the Device will automatically create the related
static routes and enable NAT proxy ARP (by selecting Nat from Proxy ARP
drop-down list) on the related WAN interface. You can go to the Advanced > Static
Route page to view those static routes in the Static Route List, therein, the static
route¶sDestination IP is a public IP addresses, Gateway IP is the related WAN
interface¶s IP address.
8.3.3.3 Passthrough NAT Rule Settings
Figure 8-10 Passthrough NAT Rule Settings
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bge9.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 218
NAT Type: It specifies the type of the NAT rule. The available options are EasyIP,
One2One, and Passthrough. Here please select Passthrough.
Start Internal IP Address and End Internal IP Address: They specify the internal
address range of the NAT rule. They are usually public IP addresses provided by the
ISP. The LAN hosts that belong to this address range will use the Passthrough NAT
rule; that is, the Device will not perform NAT for them, so the packets sent by these
hosts to the outside hosts will be directly routed and forwarded. Note that the internal
address range of a Passthrough NAT rule should not overlap with the external
address range of any EasyIP or One2One NAT rule.
Bind to: It specifies an Internet connection to which the NAT rule is bound. The LAN
hosts that match the NAT rule will access the Internet through this Internet
connection.
Description: It specifies the description of the NAT rule.
¾Save: Click it to save the NAT rule settings.

in the NAT Rule List, and then click the Delete button. Note that you cannot delete
the system reserved NAT rules here.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgeb.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 220
2. A system reserved NAT rule¶s external IP address is 0.0.0.0, which means that the
rule will use the related WAN interface¶s IP address as its external IP address; and it
is non-editable. A user-defined NAT rule¶s external IP address can be neither 0.0.0.0
nor the related WAN interface¶s IP address, that is, you can only use the other public
IP addresses provided by your ISP as its external IP addresses.
3. The internal IP address range of each NAT rule should not overlap, and the external
IP address range of each NAT rule should not overlap too; and the internal IP address
range of a Passthrough NAT rule should not overlap with the external IP address
range of any EasyIP or One2One NAT rule.
8.3.6 Configuration Examples for NAT Rule
8.3.6.1 An Example for Configuring EasyIP NAT Rule
1. Requirements
In this example, an Internet café has a single Internet connection, and obtains eight public
IP addresses (from 218.1.21.0/29 to 218.1.21.7/29) from the ISP. Therein, 218.1.21.1/29
is used as the Internet connection¶s gateway IP address, 218.1.21.2/29 is used as the
Device¶s WAN1 interfacH¶s IP address. Note that 218.1.21.0/29 and 218.1.21.7/29 cannot
be used as they are the subnet number and broadcast address respectively.
The administrator want the hosts in the online game area (its address range is from
192.168.16.10/24 to 192.168.16.100/24) to use 218.1.21.3/29 to access the Internet. To
achieve this purpose, he should create an EasyIP NAT rule for them. The rule¶sExternal
IP Address is 218.1.21.3, Start Internal IP address is 192.168.16.10, End Internal IP
Address is 192.168.16.100, and Bind to is WAN1. And we assume that the Weight is 2.
2. Configuration Procedure
The configuration steps are the following:
Step 1 Go to the NAT > NAT Rule page, and select the NAT Rule Settings tab to go to
the setup page.
Step 2 Select EasyIP from the NAT Type drop-down list, see the following figure.

and obtains eight public IP addresses (from 202.1.1.128/29 to 202.1.1.1.135/29) from the
ISP. Therein, 202.1.1.129/29 is used as the Internet connection¶s gateway IP address,
202.1.1.130/2 is used as the Device¶s WAN1 interfacH¶s IP address. Note that
202.1.1.128/29 and 202.1.1.1.135/29 cannot be used as they are the subnet number and
broadcast address respectively.

UTT Technologies Chapter 8 NAT
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 222
Figure 8-13 Network Topology for One2One NAT Rule Configuration Example
The business employees will share a single public IP address of 202.1.1.130/29 to access
the Internet. The LAN¶s subnet number is 192.168.16.0, and subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. And the business want to use the remaining four public IP addresses (from
202.1.1.131/29 to 202.1.1.134/29) to create a One2One rule for the four local servers,
then the outside users can use these public addresses to access the local servers through
the Device. The four local servers IP addresses are from 192.168.16.200/24 to
192.168.16.203/24, which are mapped to 202.1.1.131/29, 202.1.1.132/29, 202.1.1.133/29,
202.1.1.134/29 respectively.
2. Analysis
Firstly we need configure a static IP Internet connection on the WAN1 interface in the
Basic > WAN page or through the Quick Wizard. After you have configured the Internet
connection, the Device will automatically create a related system reserved NAT rule, and
also enable NAT.
Secondly, we need to create a One2One NAT rule for the four local servers. After you
have configured this rule, the Device will automatically create the related static route and
enable NAT proxy ARP on the WAN1 interface. Please see section 8.3.3.2 One2One

In this example, see Figure 8-15, a business has a single static IP Internet connection.
The connection IP address is 202.96.97.2/30, and the FRQQHFWLRQ¶V gateway IP address is
202.96.97.1/30. The business employees will share the IP address of 202.96.97.2/30 to
access the Internet. The LAN¶s subnet number is 192.168.16.0, and subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
Furthermore, the ISP has assigned a range of IP addresses (from 202.96.100.0/27 to
202.96.100.31/27) to the business. The business wants to assign these public IP
addresses for some local servers, and create a Passthrough NAT rule for these local
servers. Note that 202.96.100.0/27 and 202.96.100.31/27 cannot be used as they are the
subnet number and broadcast address respectively.

8.4 UPnP
This section describes the NAT > UPnP page.
The Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is architecture that implements zero configuration
networking, that is, it provides automatic IP configuration and dynamic discovery of the
UPnP compatible devices from various vendors. A UPnP compatible device can
dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, announce its name, convey its
capabilities upon request, and learn about the presence and capabilities of other devices
on the network.
The Device can implement NAT traversal by enabling UPnP. When you enable UPnP, the
Device allows any LAN UPnP-enabled device to perform a variety of actions, including
retrieving the public IP address, enumerate existing port mappings, and add or remove
port mappings. By adding a port mapping, a UPnP-enabled device opens the related
service ports on the Device to allow the Internet hosts access. Windows Messenger is an
example of an application that supports NAT traversal and UPnP.
The Device provides the UPnP Port Forwarding List, which lists all the port forwarding rules
established using UPnP. You can view each port forwarding rule¶s detailed information in the
list, which includes internal IP address, internal port, protocol, remote IP address, external port,
and description.

UTT Technologies Chapter 9 PPPoE Server
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 228
Chapter 9 PPPoE Server
9.1 Introduction to PPPoE
The PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet, which uses client/server
model. The PPPoE provides the ability to connect the Ethernet hosts to a remote Access
Concentrator (AC) over a simple bridging access device. And it provides extensive access
control management and accounting benefits to ISPs and network administrators.
The PPPoE is a network protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in Ethernet frames to
provide point-to-point connection over an Ethernet network.
9.1.1 PPPoE Stages
As specified in RFC 2516, the PPPoE has two distinct stages: a discovery stage and a
PPP session stage. The following describes them respectively.
9.1.2 PPPoE Discovery Stage
In the PPPoE discovery stage, a PPPoE client will find a proper server, and then build the
connection. When a client initiates a PPPoE session, it should perform discovery to
indentify the PPPoE server¶s Ethernet MAC address, and establish a PPPoE session ID.
PPPoE Client PPPoE Server
PADI
PADO
PADR
PADS
Figure 9-1 PPPoE Discovery Stage Flows
See Figure 9-1, the discovery stage includes the following four steps:
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bgf4.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 9 PPPoE Server
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 229
1. PADI (PPPoE Active Discovery Initiation): At the beginning, a PPPoE client
broadcasts a PADI packet to find all the servers that can be connected possibly. Until
it receives PADO packets from one or more servers. The PADI packet must contain a
service name which indicates the service requested by the client.
2. PADO (PPPoE Active Discovery Offer): When a PPPoE server receives a PADI
packet in its service range, it will send a PADO response packet. The PADO packet
must contain the server¶s name, and a service name identical to the one in the PADI,
and any number of other service names which indicate other services that the PPPoE
server can offer. If a PPPoE server receives a PADI packet beyond its service range,
it cannot respond with a PADO packet.
3. PADR (PPPoE Active Discovery Request): The client may receive more than one
PADO packet as the PADI was broadcast. The client chooses one server according
to the server¶s name or the services offered. Then the host sends a PADR packet to
the selected server. The PADR packet must contain a service name which indicates
the service requested by the client.
4. PADS (PPPoE Active Discovery Session- confirmation): When a PPPoE server
receives a PADR packet; it prepares to begin a PPP session. It generates a unique
PPPoE session ID, and respond to the client with a PADS packet. The PADS packet
must contain a service name which indicates the service provided to the client.
When the discovery stage completes successfully, both the server and client know the
PPPoE session ID and the peer's Ethernet MAC address, which together define the
PPPoE session uniquely.
9.1.3 PPP Session Stage
In the PPP session stage, the server and client perform standard PPP negotiation to
establish a PPP connection. After the PPP connection is established successfully, the
original datagram are encapsulated in PPP frames, and PPP frames are encapsulated in
PPPoE session frames, which have the Ethernet type 0x8864. Then these Ethernet
frames are sent to the peer. In a PPPoE session frame, the session ID must be the value

9.1.4 PPPoE Session Termination
After a session is established, either the server or client may send a PADT (PPPoE Active
Discovery Terminate) packet at anytime to indicate the session has been terminated. The
PADT packet¶s SESSION-ID must be set to indicate which session is to be terminated.
Once received a PADT, no further PPP packets (even normal PPP termination packets)
are allowed to be sent using the specified session. A PPP peer should use the PPP
protocol itself to terminate a PPPoE session, but can use the PADT packet to terminate
the PPPoE session if PPP cannot be used.
9.2 PPPoE Server Settings

9.6 Configuration Example for PPPoE Server
1. Requirements
In this example, an organization¶s administrator wants the LAN users to act as the PPPoE
clients to dial up to the Device. And it only allows the PPPoE dial-in users to access the
Internet through the Device. The exception is the CEO with IP address 192.168.16.2.
When acting as a PPPoE server, the Device dynamically will assign the IP addresses to
the LAN users. The start IP address assigned to the dial-in user is 10.0.0.1, the maximum
number of dial-in users is 100, the primary DNS server IP address is 202.101.10.10, and
the maximum number of PPPoE sessions that can be created on the Device is 100.
The administrator need to create two PPPoE accounts: one is universal account which is
used by the normal employees, and its Rx and Tx bandwidth are both 512 Kbit/s, its Max.
Sessions is 90; the other is advanced account, its Max. Sessions is 10.
And the administrator wants the LAN user with MAC address 0021859b4544 to use a
static IP address: 10.0.0.50, so he needs to create a PPPoE IP/MAC binding for this user.

Chapter 10 QoS
This chapter describes how to control and manage Internet bandwidth of the LAN users,
including global settings, rate limit rule settings and P2P rate limit settings.
10.1 Introduction to Bandwidth Management
10.1.1 Why We Need Bandwidth Management
With the growing popularity of P2P, Internet users are able to quickly download high definition
movies and video clips, massively multiplayer online games, and hundreds of megabytes of
data, also share them with others. But at the same time, as the P2P has the nature of seizing
bandwidth, it can maximize the consumption of bandwidth, and thus it has been given a
name of ³network vampire´.Using P2P applications in the LAN will impact the other users
accessing the Internet, even cause network congestion and performance deterioration,
which will ultimately lead to that those users can¶t access the Internet. Therefore, in order
to restrain the aggressive consumption of network resources by P2P applications to
provide a stable and secure network to the users, we need to effectively limit the
maximum bandwidth for the LAN users and applications. However, if we only limit the
maximum bandwidth, the bandwidth will be wasted when the network is idle, which will
undoubtedly greatly reduce bandwidth utilization. To solve this problem, we introduce a
new feature of intelligent bandwidth management on the UTT products to provide users a
more reasonable network bandwidth management solution.
The UTT products support intelligent bandwidth management based on token bucket
algorithm. It allows you to create rate limit rules based on source IP address, destination
IP address, protocol type (TCP, UDP or ICMP), port, schedule, and so on. Through the
user-defined capacity and actual network conditions, the Device will get an idea whether
the network is idle, normal, busy and exhausted; besides, it can flexibly control the upload
and download bandwidth for each LAN host according to the network status and
user-defined rate limit rules. In short, using intelligent bandwidth management feature can
help you truly implement intelligent and flexible bandwidth management.

UTT Technologies Chapter 10 QoS
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 258
10.1.2 Token Bucket Algorithm
As bandwidth management feature provided by the UTT products is based on token
bucket algorithm, this section describe token bucket in brief.
Token bucket algorithm is one of the most common algorithms which are used for network
traffic shaping and rate limiting. Typically, token bucket algorithm is used to control the
amount of data injected into a network, and it allows bursts of data to be sent.
The token bucket is a control mechanism that dictates when traffic can be transmitted,
based on the presence of tokens in the bucket. The bucket contains tokens, each of which
can represent a byte. If tokens are present, traffic can be transmitted; else, traffic cannot
be transmitted. Therefore, if the burst threshold is configured appropriately and there are
adequate tokens in the bucket, traffic can be transmitted in its peak burst rate.
The basic process of token bucket algorithm is as follows:
Ɣ The token rate is r, that is, a token is added to the bucket every 1/ r seconds.
Ɣ The bucket can hold at the most ȕ tokens. If a token arrives when the bucket is full, it
is discarded.
Ɣ When a packet of n bytes arrives, n tokens are removed from the bucket, and the
packet is sent to the network.
Ɣ If fewer than n tokens are available, no tokens are removed from the bucket, and the
packet is considered to be non-conformant.
Ɣ Although the algorithm allows for the burst of up to ȕbytes of traffic, over the long run
the output of conformant packets is limited by the constant rate, r.
Non-conformant packets can be treated in various ways:
Ɣ They may be dropped.
Ɣ They may be enqueued for subsequent transmission when sufficient tokens have
accumulated in the bucket.
Ɣ They may be transmitted, but marked as being non-conformant, possibly to be
dropped subsequently if the network is overloaded.
In conclusion, the token bucket algorithm allows bursts of up to ȕ bytes, but over the long
run the output of conformant packets is limited to the constant rate, r.

http://www.uttglobal.com Page 259
10.1.3 Implementation of Bandwidth Management
Using intelligent bandwidth management based on token bucket algorithm, the Device
can flexibly control the upload and download bandwidth of the LAN hosts. There are four
process mechanisms depending on the bandwidth utilization:
1. When the bandwidth utilization level is idle, each LAN host is likely to obtain its
maximum bandwidth.
2. When the bandwidth utilization level is normal, each LAN host can obtain a bandwidth
between its guaranteed and maximum bandwidth, and the bandwidth allocated to the
LAN hosts are closest to their maximum bandwidth.
3. When the bandwidth utilization level is busy, each LAN host can only obtain its
guaranteed bandwidth.
4. When the bandwidth utilization level is exhausted, only the LAN hosts with high
priority can obtain their guaranteed bandwidth, any other LAN host can only obtain a
bandwidth lower than the guaranteed bandwidth.
Depending on the ratio of the actual capacity (i.e., total number of network devices
connected to the Device) to the user-defined capacity (set by Capacity in the QoS >
Global Settings page), we divide the bandwidth utilization into four levels: Idle, Normal,
Busy, and Exhausted.
Ɣ Idle: The ratio is below 50%.
Ɣ Normal: The ratio is between 50% and 95%.
Ɣ Busy: The ratio is between 95% and 100%.
Ɣ Exhausted: The ratio is above 100%.
The intelligent bandwidth management feature can help you effectively solve the network
congestion problem due to network abuse by the LAN users, and ensure full bandwidth
utilization without affecting the other users. In short, this feature can help you truly
implement intelligent and flexible bandwidth management.

10.2 Rate Limit Global Settings
Figure 10-1 Rate Limit Global Settings
Enable Rate Limit: It allows you to enable or disable rate limit. If you select the check
box to enable rate limit, the configured rate limit rules will take effect. Else the rate
limit rules will be of no effect.
Capacity: It specifies the maximum number of network devices (PC or other network
device) that can be connected to the Device at the same time. Depending on the ratio
of the actual capacity (i.e., total number of network devices connected to the Device)
to this user-defined capacity, we divide the bandwidth utilization into four levels: Idle,
Normal, Busy, and Exhausted. Refer to 10.1.3 Implementation of Bandwidth
Management for more information.
¾Save: Click it to save the rate limit global settings.
Note
The units of bandwidth and rate generally are Kbit/s (Kilobit per second) and KByte/s
or KB/s (Kilobyte per second). The conversion formulas are as follows:
zByte = 8 bits
zKilobyte = 1024 bytes or 8192 (8 x 1024) bits
zMegabyte = 1024 Kilobytes or 1.048.576 (1024 x 1024) bytes or 8.388.608 bits
zGigabyte = 1024 Megabytes or 1.073.741.824 bytes or 8.589.934.592 bits
For example, 10 Mbit/s = 10240 Kbit/s = 10240/8 KByte/s = 1280 KByte/s

10.3 Rate Limit Rule
You can create rate limit rules based on source IP address, destination IP address,
protocol type (TCP, UDP or ICMP), port, schedule, and so on.
Note that if you want the rate limit rules to take effect, please make sure that the Enable
Rate Limit check box is selected in the QoS > Global Settings page.
10.3.1 Rate Limit Rule Settings
Before creating the rate limit rules, you may do the following tasks:
Ɣ Go to the Security > Address Group page to create the address groups that will be
referenced by the rules. The addresses within an address group are used to match
the source or destination IP addresses of packets that are received by the Device.
Ɣ Go to the Security > Service Group page to create the service groups that will be
referenced by the rules. Note that only the service groups whose Service Type is
General Service can be referenced by the rate limit rules.
Ɣ Go to the Security > Schedule page to create the schedules that will be referenced
by the rules.
If the source IP addresses are consecutive, you also can directly specify the source IP
addresses for a rate limit rule in this page. The following describes the definitions of a
rule¶s parameters.

¾Delete Rate Limit Rule(s): If you want to delete one or more rate limit rules, select
the leftmost check boxes of them, and then click the Delete button.
10.3.3 The Execution Order of Rate Limit Rules
When receiving a packet initiated from LAN, the Device will analyze the packet by
extracting its source IP address, destination IP address, protocol type (TCP, UDP or
ICMP), port number, and the date and time at which the packet was received, and then
compare them with each rule in the order in which the rules are listed in Rate Limit Rule
List to find out if there is a rule matches the packet. The first matched rule will apply to the
packet, and no further rules will be checked. If no rule matches, the packet will not be
restricted by any rate limit rule.
Note that in the Rate Limit Rule List, the rate limit rules are listed in reverse chronological
order of creation, the later the rule is created, the upper the rule is listed; and the Device
allows you to manually move a rule to a different position in the list.

10.4 P2P Rate Limit
This section describes the QoS > P2P Rate Limit page.
P2P rate limit feature is specially designed for P2P application. The P2P rate limit has the
highest priority, that is, even if you have created rate limit rules for some LAN users in the
QoS > Rate Limit Rule page, the P2P traffic of these users is still restricted by P2P rate
limit settings. Using P2P rate limit, you can effectively reduce network congestion caused
by the usage of P2P applications without the expense of the other LAN users¶ traffic and
bandwidth.

11.3 Policy Database
This section describes the Restriction > Policy Database page.
Note
In this document the policy database is called PDB for short.
11.3.1 Introduction to Policy Database
This page allows you to not only view the PDBs in the Policy Database List, but also
upload and update PDBs. By introducing PDB, we can add a group of policies into a PDB;
and we also provide PDB online update function to greatly facilitate the users. The Device
currently supports four types of PDBs, which includes Route PDB, DNS PDB, Website
PDB and Firewall PDB; and in the future, UTT Technologies Co., Ltd. will successively
provide more types of PDBs according to actual user requirements.
The route PDBs can be referenced and configured in the Advanced > Static Route page.
By introducing route PDB, the XVHUVGRQ¶t need add static routes one by one, but instead
create a large batch of static routes for each ISP connection at a time. Then the traffic
destined for one ISP¶s servers will be forwarded through this ISP¶s connection, but not
another ISP¶s connection; such as, the traffic destined for TEL servers will be forwarded to
the TEL connection, the traffic destined for CNC servers will be forwarded to the CNC
Internet connection, and the traffic destined for ChinaMobile servers will be forwarded to
the ChinaMobile Internet connection. Thus the LAN hosts can access those servers
normally. Refer section 7.1.2 Static Route Policy Database for more information about
route PDBs.
The firewall PDBs, DNS PDBs, and Website PDBs are referenced and configured in the
Restriction > Behavior Mgmt. > Behavior Mgmt. Settings page. By introducing firewall
PDBs, you GRQ¶W need add multiple access control rules one by one, but instead just click
some check boxes to block or allow the LAN users to use popular IM (e.g., QQ, MSN) and
P2P applications (e.g., BitComet, BitSpirit, Thunder Search).

1. You cannot delete the system default PDBs.
2. By default, the Policy Database List only displays the system default PDBs, which
include CNC, TEL, QQ, MSN, BT, Thunder, GAMEURL, STOCKURL, FileType, and
upload. It allows you to customize firewall PDBs and modify the system default
firewall PDBs via CLI.
3. Only the system default PDBs can be updated. Once you have updated a firewall
PDB which has been referenced, the related settings will take effect immediately;
after you updated a route PDB which has been referenced, you should go to the
Advanced > Static Route page to reference it again and perform the save operation
to make the related settings take effect. Refer to section 7.1.2.4 How to Update a
System Default Static Route PDB for detailed operation.

11.5 Configuration Example for Internet
Behavior Management
1. Requirements
In 2011, a business CEO wants to control online behavior of the employees. He wants to
block all the predefined IM and P2P applications, online games, game and stock websites
during working time, but allow all the Internet services during rest periods. But there are
some exceptions which are as follows:
Ɣ The CEO and vice CEO can access the Internet without any restrictions. Their IP
addresses are 192.168.16.4 and 192.168.16.5 respectively.
Ɣ The Customer Service and Sales Departments¶ employees need to use IM
applications to communicate with customers during working time. Their IP address
ranges are: from 192.168.16.50 to 192.168.16.70, and from 192.168.16.100 to
192.168.16.120 respectively.
Ɣ There are five employees with dynamic IP addresses, and they need to use QQ.
Their QQ numbers are 21586375, 29583674, 1572681475, 1143550132 and
66587954 respectively.
The business¶s working time is: Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 12:00 am, and 1:00 to 6:00 pm.
2. Analysis
We need to create three Internet behavior management policies, enable QQ whitelist
feature and add five QQ numbers into the QQ Whitelist to meet requirements.
1) Policy 1: It is used to block all the LAN users from using IM and P2P applications,
playing online games, and accessing game and stock websites.
2) Policy 2: It is used to allow the Customer Service and Sales Departments¶ employees
to use IM applications during working time. Note that as this policy has higher priority
than policy 1, it should be created later than policy 1.
3) Policy 3: It is used to allow the CEO and vice CEO to access all the Internet services.
Note that as this policy has the highest priority, it should be created at last.
4) Enable QQ whitelist feature and add five QQ numbers into the QQ Whitelist.
3. Configuration Procedure
Before creating the Internet behavior management policies, you may do the following
tasks:
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg136.png)

11.6 Notice
This section describes the Restriction > Notice page.
11.6.1 Introduction to Notice
The Device provides notice feature which is used to push notice messages to the
specified LAN users. After you enable notice feature, if a specified LAN user accesses the
Internet via a web browser (e.g., IE, Firefox), the Device will automatically push a notice
message to the user.
The Device provides one-time notice and daily notice. If you enable one-time notice
feature and specify a notice message, and then when a specified LAN user accesses the
Internet via a web browser, the Device will automatically push the notice message to the
user; in general, the one-time notice message is only pushed once. If you enable daily
notice feature and specify a notice message, the Device will automatically push the notice
message to the specified LAN users one time per day.
Either you use one-time notice or daily notice, it allows you to customize a notice message
or just specify a notice URL. If you choose to customize a notice message, and then when
a specified LAN user accesses the Internet via a web browser, the Device will
automatically pop up the notice message to the user. Else, the requested web page will
automatically jump to the specified URL to display the notice; in this case, you need add
the notice message to that web page in advance.
Besides notice feature in this page, UTT Series Security Firewalls also provide domain
blocking notice feature. Please refer to section 12.4.2 Domain Blocking Notice for
detailed information.

Chapter 12 Security
This chapter describes how to configure security features, including attack defense,
IP/MAC binding, firewall, DNS filtering, NAT session limit, address group, service group
and schedule.
12.1 Attack Defense
This section describes the Security > Attack Defense page, which includes internal
attack defense and external attack defense.
12.1.1 Internal Attack Defense
In this page, you can do basic internal attack defense settings to enhance network security.
The internal attack defense includes three parts:
zVirus Defense: It can effectively protect the Device against popular virus attacks,
such as, Anti-Blaster virus attack, UDP/ICMP/SYN flood attack, ARP spoofing attack,
and so on.
zAccess Restrict: It can effectively protect the Device against DDoS attacks by
restricting /$1KRVWV¶DFFHVVto the Device.
zOther Defense: It can effectively protect the Device against port scanning attack.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg144.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 309
Figure 12-1 Internal Attack Defense Settings
1. Virus Attacks Defense
Enable Blaster Virus Defense: It allows you to enable or disable anti-blaster virus
defense. If you select the check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect the
Device against blaster and sasser virus attacks. After you enable this feature, the
Device will discard those TCP packets destined for port 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 445,
1025, 5554 or 9996, so the LAN hosts cannot access the related services provided by
outside hosts, e.g., windows file and printer sharing services.
Enable IP Spoofing Defense: It allows you to enable or disable IP spoofing defense.
If you select the check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect the Device
against IP spoofing attack. After you enable this feature, the Device will only forward
the packets whose source IP address is in the same subnet as the Device LAN IP
address. Note that in this case the hosts behind a L3 switch cannot access the
Internet through the Device.
Enable UDP Flood Defense: It allows you to enable or disable UDP flood defense. If
you select this check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect the Device
against UDP flood attack. After you enable this feature, if the number of UDP packets
from one source IP address (e.g., 192.168.16.66) to a single port on a remote host
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg145.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 310
exceeds the threshold, the Device will consider that the LAN host with IP address
192.168.16.66 is performing UDP flood attack, and then randomly discard the further
UDP packets from that source to that destination. In most cases, leave Threshold
the default value.
Enable ICMP Flood Defense: It allows you to enable or disable ICMP flood defense.
If you select this check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect the Device
against ICMP flood attack. After you enable this feature, if the number of ICMP
packets from one source IP address (e.g., 192.168.16.16) to a single port on a
remote host exceeds the threshold, the Device will consider that the LAN host with IP
address 192.168.16.16 is performing ICMP flood attack, and then randomly discard
the further ICMP packets from that source to that destination. In most cases, leave
Threshold the default value.
Enable SYN Flood Defense: It allows you to enable or disable SYN flood defense. If
you select this check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect the Device
against SYN flood defense. After you enable this feature, if the number of SYN
packets from one source IP address (e.g., 192.168.16.36) to a single port on a
remote host exceeds the threshold, the Device will consider that the LAN host with IP
address 192.168.16.36 is performing SYN flood attack, and then randomly discard
the further SYN packets from that source to that destination. In most cases, leave
Threshold the default value.
Enable ARP Spoofing Defense: It allows you to enable or disable ARP spoofing
defense. If you select the check box to enable this feature, and then bind all the
IP/MAC address pairs of the LAN hosts (configured in the Security > IP/MAC
Binding page), it will effectively protect the Device against ARP spoofing attack.
ARP Broadcast Interval: It specifies the time interval at which the Device
periodically broadcasts gratuitous ARP packets. These gratuitous ARP packets are
used to inform the LAN hosts the correct MAC address of the Device¶s LAN interface,
so the LAN hosts can effectively defense ARP spoofing attack. It should be multiple of
10 between 100 and 5000 milliseconds.
2. Access Restrict
Enable Device Access Restrict: It allows you to enable or disable device access
restrict. Select the check box WRUHVWULFW/$1KRVWV¶DFFHVVWRWKH'HYLFHWKURXJK/$1
interface, so it will protect the Device against internal DDoS attacks. The access
restrict rules are as follows:
1) Allow any LAN host to use ICMP to access the Device.
2) Allow any LAN host to access the UDP port 53, 67 or 68 of the Device, to ensure
that the Device¶s DNS proxy, DHCP server and DHCP client can operate
properly.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg146.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 311
3) Only allow the LAN hosts that belong to the range specified by Allowed IP
Addresses to access the web or telnet service provided by the Device, but block
the other hosts.
4) Block LAN hosts from accessing any other services provided by the Device.
Allowed IP Addresses: It specifies an address range of the allowed LAN hosts.
When Enable Device Access Restrict is selected, only the LAN hosts that belong to
this range can access the web or telnet service provided by the Device.
Threshold: It specifies the maximum number of packets passing through the
'HYLFH¶V/$1LQWHUIDFHSHUVHFRQGIt should be between 0 and 20000 packets per
second, and the suggested value is between 300 and 600 packets per second.
3. Other Defense
Enable Port Scanning Defense: It allows you to enable or disable port scanning
defense. If you select this check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect
the Device against port scanning attack. After you enable this feature, if a LAN host
continuously sends the SYN packets to different ports on a remote host, and the
number of ports exceeds 10 at the specified time interval (set by the Threshold), the
Device will consider that the LAN host is performing port scanning attack, and then
randomly discard the further SYN packets from it to that destination host. In most
cases, leave the Threshold the default value.
¾Save: Click it to save the internal attack defense settings.
12.1.2 External Attack Defense
In this page you can enable or disable WAN ping respond. As ping is often used by
malicious Internet users to locate active networks or hosts, in most cases, it is
recommended that you disable WAN ping respond for added security. Only in some
special cases, such as network debugging, you need enable this feature.

12.2 IP/MAC Binding
This section describes the Security > IP/MAC Binding page.
12.2.1 Introduction to IP/MAC Binding
12.2.1.1 IP/MAC Overview
To achieve network security management, you should firstly implement user identification, and
then you should implement user authorization. Section 12.3 Security > Firewall describes
how to configure and use access control rules to control the Internet behaviors of the LAN
users. In this section, we will describe how to implement user identification.
The Device provides IP/MAC binding feature to implement user identification. Using the
IP/MAC address pair as a unique user identity, you can protect the Device and your network
against IP spoofing attacks. IP spoofing attack refers to that a host attempts to use another
trusted host¶s IP address to connect to or pass through the Device. The host¶s IP address can
easily be changed to a trusted address, but MAC address cannot easily be changed as it is
added to the Ethernet card at the factory.
The IP/MAC binding feature allows you to add the IP and MAC address pairs of trusted
LAN hosts in the IP/MAC Binding List. Note that in the IP/MAC Binding List, you can
allow or block Internet access for each IP/MAC binding user. After you have added a LAN
user¶s IP and MAC address pair into the IP/MAC Binding List, if its Allow Internet
Access check box is selected (check mark ¥appears), it will allow the user to access the
Device and Internet, else block the user.
12.2.1.2 The Operation Principle of IP/MAC Binding
For the sake of convenience, we firstly introduce several related terms including legal user,
illegal user and undefined user.
Legal User: A legal user¶s IP and MAC address pair matches an IP/MAC binding whose
Allow Internet Access check box is selected.
Illegal User: A illegal user¶s IP and MAC address pair matches an IP/MAC binding whose
Allow Internet Access check box is unselected; or the IP address or MAC address is the
same with an IP/MAC binding¶s, but not both.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg149.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 314
Undefined User: An undefined user¶s IP address and MAC address both are different
from any IP/MAC binding. The undefined users are all the users except legal and illegal
users.
It allows the legal users to access the Device and access the Internet through the Device,
and denies the illegal users. And the parameter of Allow Undefined LAN PCs
determines whether it allows the undefined users to access the Device and access the
Internet through the Device, that is, it will allow them if the Allow Undefined LAN PCs
check box is selected, else block them.
IP/MAC binding feature can act on the packets initiated from the LAN hosts to the Device
or outside hosts. When receiving a packet initiated from LAN, the Device will firstly
determine the sender¶s identity by comparing the packet with the bindings in the IP/MAC
Binding List, and then process the packet according to the sender¶s identity. The details
are as follows:
1. If the sender is a legal user, the packet will be allowed to pass, and then be further
processed by the firewall access control function module.
2. If the sender is an illegal user, the packet will be dropped immediately to prevent IP
spoofing.
3. If the sender is an undefined user, there are two cases:
1) If the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box is selected, the packet will be
allowed to pass, and then be further processed by the firewall access control
function module.
2) Else, the packet will be dropped immediately.
For example, if the IP/MAC address pair IP 192.168.16.65 and 00:15:c5:67:41:0f is added to
the IP/MAC Binding List, and its Allow Internet Access check box is selected, see Figure
12-3.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg14a.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 315
Figure 12-3 IP/MAC Binding List - Example One
Then, when receiving a packet initiated from LAN, the Device will process it according to
the following cases:
1. A packet with IP address 192.168.16.65 and MAC address 00:15:c5:67:41:0f is
allowed to pass, and then it will be further processed by the firewall access control
function module.
2. A packet with IP address 192.168.16.65 but with a different MAC address is dropped
immediately to prevent IP spoofing.
3. A packet with a different IP address but with MAC address 00:15:c5:67:41:0f is
dropped immediately to prevent IP spoofing.
4. A packet¶s IP address and MAC address both are not defined in the IP/MAC Binding
List:
1) If the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box is selected, the packet is allowed to
pass, and then it will be further processed by the firewall access control function
module.
2) Else, the packet is dropped.
If you want to block the user who matches the IP/MAC binding from accessing the Device
and Internet, you need unselect Allow Internet Access check box, see Figure 12-4. Then a
packet with IP address 192.168.16.65 and MAC address 00:15:c5:67:41:0f will be
dropped.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg14b.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 316
Figure 12-4 IP/MAC Binding List - Example Two
Note
1. If you have added the IP and MAC address pair of a trusted LAN host in the IP/MAC
Binding List, and later changed this host¶s IP address or MAC address, you must
also change the corresponding binding in the IP/MAC Binding List; otherwise the
host cannot access the Device and Internet. If the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check
box is unselected, you must also add the IP and MAC address pair of any new host that
you add to your network, and make sure that its Allow Internet Access check box is
selected; otherwise this new host cannot access the Device and Internet.
2. IP/MAC binding feature can only act on the packets initiated from the LAN hosts to
the Device or outside hosts, but cannot act on the packets within the LAN. If you
change a LAN host¶s IP address or MAC address, this LAN host will be unable to
access the Device and access the Internet through the Device, but it still can
communicate with the other LAN hosts, such as, it can browse Network
Neighborhood, use windows file and printer sharing services within the LAN, and so
on.

Step 3 After you have created some IP/MAC bindings, you can view them in the
IP/MAC Binding List.
Step 4 If you want to block the undefined LAN hosts from accessing the Device and
Internet, please unselect the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box; else, the
undefined LAN hosts are allowed to access the Device and Internet.
Step 5 If you want to temporarily block a user matching an IP/MAC binding from
accessing the Device and Internet, please unselect its Allow Internet Access
check box.
After you have finished configuring IP/MAC binding feature, when receiving a packet
initiated from LAN, the Device will firstly compare the packet with the bindings in the
IP/MAC Binding List, and then process the packet according to the related configuration.
The packet will be allowed to pass or be dropped immediately. If it is allowed to pass, the
packet will be further processed by the firewall access control function module.
12.2.6 Internet Whitelist and Blacklist
12.2.6.1 Introduction to Internet Whitelist and Blacklist Based
on IP/MAC Binding
By utilizing IP/MAC binding feature, you can flexibly configure an Internet whitelist or blacklist
for the LAN users.
If you want to allow only a small number of LAN users to access the Internet, you can
configure an Internet whitelist for these users. Then only the users that belong to the
whitelist can access the Internet, and all the other users can not access.
If you want to block only a small number of LAN users from accessing the Internet, you
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg150.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 321
can configure an Internet blacklist for these users. Then only the users that belong to the
blacklist cannot access the Internet, and all the other users can access.
On the Device, a user who belongs to the whitelist is a legal user, that is, the user¶s IP and
MAC address pair matches an IP/MAC binding whose Allow Internet Access check box
is selected.
A user who belongs to the blacklist is an illegal user, that is, the user¶s IP and MAC
address pair matches an IP/MAC binding whose Allow Internet Access check box is
unselected; or the IP address or MAC address is the same with an IP/MAC binding¶s, but
not both.
12.2.6.2 How to Configure an Internet Whitelist
If you want to configure an Internet whitelist, do the following:
Step 1 Go to the Security > IP/MAC Binding page, and then click the New button or
select the IP/MAC Binding Settings tab to go to the setup page.
Step 2 Specify the legal users by creating the IP/MAC bindings: Add these users¶ IP
and MAC address pairs into the IP/MAC Binding List. By default, an IP/MAC
binding¶sAllow Internet Access check box is selected, which means that the
user matching the IP/MAC binding can access the Device and Internet, so
please leave it the default value. Refer to section 12.2.2 IP/MAC Binding
Settings for detailed operation.
Step 3 Unselect the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box to block all the undefined
users from accessing the Device and Internet.
For example, if you want to allow a LAN user with IP address 192.168.16.68 and MAC
address 0015c5674109 to access the Device and Internet, you can add an IP/MAC
binding for he/her into the IP/MAC Binding List,see Figure 12-8. The binding¶sAllow
Internet Access check box is selected by default, so please leave it the default value.

12.2.6.3 How to Configure Internet Blacklist
If you want to configure an Internet blacklist, do the following:
Step 1 Go to the Security > IP/MAC Binding page, and then click the New button or
select the IP/MAC Binding Settings tab to go to the setup page.
Step 2 Specify the illegal users by creating the IP/MAC bindings. There are three
methods:
1) Method One: Bind each illegal user¶s IP address to a MAC address which
is different from any LAN host¶s in the IP/MAC Binding List. Refer to
section 12.2.2 IP/MAC Binding Settings for detailed operation.
2) Method Two: Bind an IP address which is different from any LAN host¶s to
each illegal user¶s MAC address in the IP/MAC Binding List.
3) Method Three: Add these users¶ IP and MAC address pairs in the IP/MAC
Binding List. Unselect each IP/MAC binding¶s Allow Internet Access
check box respectively, then the matched users can not access the Device
and Internet.
Step 3 Select the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box to allow all the undefined
users to access the Device and Internet.
For example, if you want to block a LAN user with IP address 192.168.16.68 and MAC
address 0015c5674109 from accessing the Device and Internet, you can add the
corresponding IP/MAC binding in the IP/MAC Binding List. And then unselect the
binding¶sAllow Internet Access check box to block the user¶s access to the Device and
Internet, see Figure 12-9.

12.3 Firewall
This section describes the Security > Firewall page, which includes the Access Control
List and ACL Settings subpages.
The access control rules that you have created will be listed in the Access Control List.
Note that by default the rules are listed in reverse chronological order of creation, and it
allows you to manually move a rule to a different position in the list.
12.3.1 Introduction to Access Control
12.3.1.1 The Purpose of Access Control Feature
The development of Internet has brought some side effects, such as the emergence of
gambling, pornography, and other illegal websites which are contrary to the state laws and
regulations; broadband network provide fast surfing to the Internet users, while fast
spreading worms cause great threat to the Internet users. So if an organization wants to
access the Internet, it needs specific Internet access rules. Such as, a government
organization wants to block the civil servants from accessing stock websites, using IM
messenger applications; a business wants to block the employees from accessing game
websites and other services which are unrelated to work during working time; parents
want to control their children¶s online time; an network administrator wants to block the
worms and hacker attacks.
To achieve these purposes, we develop and implement access control feature on the Device.
By utilizing access control feature flexibly, you can not only assign different Internet
access privileges to different LAN users, but also assign different Internet access
privileges to the same users based on schedules. In practice, you can set appropriate
access control rules according to the actual requirements of your organization. Such as,
for a school, you can block the students to access game websites; for a family, you can
only allow your children to access the Internet during the specified period of time; for a
business, you can block the Financial Department¶s employees from accessing the
Internet.
12.3.1.2 The Operation Principle of Access Control
By default, as no access control rule exists on the Device, the Device will forward all the
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg154.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 325
valid packets received by the LAN interface. After you have enabled access control, the
Device will examine each packet received by the LAN interface to determine whether to
forward or drop the packet, based on the criteria you specified in the access control rules.
When receiving a packet initiated from LAN, the Device will analyze the packet by
extracting its source MAC address, source IP address, destination IP address, protocol
type (TCP, UDP or ICMP), port number, content, and the date and time at which the
packet was received, and then compare them with each rule in the order in which the rules
are listed in the Access Control List.The first rule that matches the packet will be applied
to the packet, and the Device will forward or drop it according to this rule¶s action. Note that
after a match is found, no further rules will be checked; and if no match is found, the
Device will drop the packet to ensure security.
The access control rules are applied to the packets that are received by the Device¶s LAN
interface, that is, those packets that arrive on the LAN interface and then go through the
Device. If a packet matches a rule whose Action is Allow, the packet will be allowed to
pass, and then be further processed by route, NAT and other modules. Else, if the packet
matches a rule whose Action is Drop, or doesn¶t match any rule, the packet will be
dropped immediately. As these dropped packets are no longer further processed by route,
NAT and other modules, it will reduce CPU load and improve the Device performance.
12.3.1.3 The Action of an Access Control Rule
The action of an access control rule is either Allow or Deny. When receiving a packet that
matches a rule in the Access Control List, the Device will forward the packet if the rule¶s
action is Allow; else the Device will drop it.
12.3.1.4 The Execution Order of Access Control Rules
The order of access control rules is very important. When receiving a packet initiated from
LAN, the Device will search Access Control List to find out if there is a rule that matches
the packet. It will check the packet against each rule in the order in which the rules are
listed. After a match is found, no further rules will be checked. If no match is found, the
Device will drop the packet to ensure security. Note that by default the rules are listed in
reverse chronological order of creation, the later the rule is created, the upper the rule is
listed; and the Device allows you to manually move a rule to a different position in the list.
Because the Device will allow or deny a packet to pass according to the first rule that
matches the packet, you should arrange the rules in Access Control List from specific to
general. For example, if you create an access control rule at the beginning that explicitly
allows all packets to pass, no further rules are ever checked. Another example is that if
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg155.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 326
you only allow a LAN user to access Web service, and block any other service, then the
rule that allows the user to access Web service should be listed above the rule that denies
the user to access any other service.
12.3.1.5 Address Group and Service Group
On the Device, you can create the IP address groups in the Security > Address Group
page or service groups in the Security > Service Group page firstly, and then reference
them by name in the source or destination address group, or service group fields of
access control rules.
1. Address Group
Using address groups can facilitate the configuration of access control rules. For example,
if some LAN hosts¶ IP addresses are discontinuous, but the hosts have the same
privileges of accessing the Internet, you can create an address group for these hosts.
Then you only need to create one access control rule by using the address group to meet
the KRVWV¶ requirements. Else you need to create multiple access control rules for these
hosts. Refer to section 12.6 Address Group for more information about address group.
2. Service Group
The service group is used to match the source MAC address, protocol type (TCP, UDP or
ICMP), port number and content of the packets that are received by the Device. Using
service groups can facilitate the configuration of access control rules. For example, you
can add telnet, pop3 and http services into a service group, and then create one rule by
using the service group to control the access to these services. Else, you need to create
multiple access control rules for the access to these services, one rule per service. Refer
to section 12.7 Service Group for more information about service group.
12.3.1.6 System Default Access Control Rules
Besides user-defined access control rules, the Device will automatically created some
system default access control rules in the Access Control List. The following table
describes the purposes of these rules.
ID Description
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg156.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 327
lan It is used to allow the LAN users to access the Device¶s LAN interface. And it is the
first rule, but it is implicit and not displayed in the list.
dns It is used to allow the DNS packets to pass by default.
dhcp It is used to allow the DHCP packets to pass by default.
pass It is a global rule for IP packets. By default, it is used to allow all the IP packets to
pass. And it is always listed and displayed at the bottom of the list.
generic It is a global rule which is used to allow all the packets including non-IP packets to
pass. And it is the last rule, but it is implicit and not displayed in the list.
Table 12-1 The System Default Access Control Rules
Note
You cannot delete the system default access control rules in the Access Control List,
and cannot modify its parameters except Action.
12.3.2 Access Control Rule Settings
Before creating the access control rules, you may do the following tasks:
Ɣ Go to the Security > Address Group page to create the address groups that will be
referenced by the rules.
Ɣ Go to the Security > Service Group page to create the service groups that will be
referenced by the rules.
Ɣ Go to the Security > Schedule page to create the schedules that will be referenced
by the rules.

12.3.5 Configuration Examples for Access Control
12.3.5.1 Example One
1. Requirements
In this example, a business has four departments: Technology Department, Customer
Service Department, Financial Department and Sales Department.
The IP address ranges of the departments are as follows:
Ɣ Technology Department: 192.168.16.2~192.168.16.30
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg15b.png)
UTT Technologies Chapter 12 Security
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 332
Ɣ Customer Service Department: 192.168.16.31~192.168.16.60
Ɣ Financial Department: 192.168.16.61~192.168.16.70
Ɣ Sales Department: 192.168.16.71~192.168.16.100
The CEO wants to control Internet behaviors of the Technology and Financial
Departments¶ employees:
1. Allow them to access WEB and FTP services during working time.
2. Deny them to access all other services during working time.
3. Allow them to access any service during rest periods.
Besides, he wants to allow any other employee to access any service at any time.
The working time is: Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 12:00 am, and 1:00 to 6:00 pm.
2. Analysis
We need to use two user-defined access control rules together with the default rule pass
to meet requirements:
Ɣ User-defined rule 1: It is used to allow the Technology and Financial Departments¶
employees to access WEB and FTP services during working time.
Ɣ User-defined rule 2: It is used to deny any employee to access any service during
working time.
Ɣ Default rule pass: It allows all the IP packets to pass by default.

12.5 NAT Session Limit
This section describes the Security > NAT Session Limit page.
The NAT session limit feature allows you to limit the maximum number of concurrent NAT
sessions based on the LAN hosts. And it allows you to specify different maximum NAT
sessions for different LAN hosts. Furthermore, it allows you to limit the maximum number
of concurrent TCP sessions, UDP sessions and ICMP sessions respectively.

IP Addresses and To: They specify the start IP address and end IP address of the
LAN hosts to which the NAT session limit rule applies. Please enter the start IP
address in the first text box, and the end IP address in the second text box. The
Device provides a default NAT session limit rule. Its start IP address and end IP
address both are 0.0.0.0, which means that the default rule applies to all the IP
addresses. You can modify its parameters except IP Addresses, but cannot delete it.
Max. Sessions: It specifies the maximum number of concurrent sessions per
restricted host.
Max. TCP Sessions: It specifies the maximum number of concurrent TCP sessions
per restricted host.
Max. UDP Sessions: It specifies the maximum number of concurrent UDP sessions
per restricted host.
Max. ICMP Sessions: It specifies the maximum number of concurrent ICMP
sessions per restricted host.
Description: It specifies the description of the NAT session limit rule.

1. When using NAT session limit function, the Device will search the Session Limit List
to find out if there is a rule that matches a LAN host. It will check the host¶s IP address
against each rule in the order in which the rules are listed. After a match is found, no
further rules will be checked. Note that the rules are listed in reverse chronological
order of creation, the later the rule is created, and the upper the rule is listed.
2. The start IP address should be less than or equal to the end IP address. The address
ranges of different NAT session limit rules can overlap.
3. If some applications (such as online games) performance is degraded due to the
maximum NAT sessions limit, you can increase the Max. Sessions and Max. TCP
sessions (or Max. UDP sessions) properly. Note that if they are too large, it will
lower or lose the Device¶s ability to prevent DDoS attacks.
4. In most cases, to ensure that the LAN users surf the Internet normally, the maximum
NAT sessions cannot be too small. It is suggested that both the Max. Sessions and
Max. TCP sessions should be larger than or equal to 100, the Max. UDP sessions
should be larger than or equal to 50, and Max. ICMP sessions should be larger than
or equal to 10.

12.6 Address Group
This section describes the Security > Address Group page.
12.6.1 Introduction to Address Group
An address group can contain up to ten address members. A member may be an address
range or address group. And an address group may contain address ranges only, or
address groups only, or both.
If you want to create an access control rule (in the Security > Firewall page) whose
destination or source IP addresses are discontinuous, you can create an address group
for them in this page firstly, and then reference it in the access control rule. When
receiving a packet, if the packet¶s destination or source IP address belongs to the address
group, the Device will consider that its IP address matches the access control rule. And if
the packet also matches other criteria (protocol type, destination ports, schedule, etc.) of the
access control rule, the Device will consider that the packet matches the access control
rule.
Using address groups can facilitate the configuration of access control rules. For example,
if some LAN hosts¶ IP addresses are discontinuous, but the hosts have the same
privileges of accessing the Internet, you can create an address group for these hosts.
Then you only need to create one access control rule by using the address group to meet
the KRVWV¶ requirements. Else you need to create multiple access control rules for these
hosts.
Similarly, you also can reference an address group in a rule limit rule in the QoS > Rate
Limit Rule page.

12.7 Service Group
This section describes Security > Service Group page.
12.7.1 Introduction to Service Group
The Device provides five service types including general service, URL, Keyword, DNS
and MAC address for the service group. Then the service groups can be used to match
the protocol type (TCP, UDP or ICMP), port number, content, source MAC address of
packets that are received by the Device. For each service type, it allows you to define new
services, or select existing services or service groups, and then add them to the service
group. A service group can contain up to ten service members. A member may be a
service or service group. And a service group may contain services only, or service groups
only, or both.
If you want to create an access control rule in the Security > Firewall page, you can
create a service group in this page firstly, and then reference it in the access control rule.
Using service groups can facilitate the configuration of access control rules. For example,
you can add telnet, pop3 and http services into a service group, and then create one rule
by using the service group to control the access to these services. Else, you need to
create multiple access control rules for the access to these services, one rule per service.
Similarly, you also can reference a service group whose Service Type is General Service
in a rule limit rule in the QoS > Rate Limit Rule page.

12.8 Schedule
This section describes the Security > Schedule page.
12.8.1 Introduction to Schedule
The schedule feature lets you define schedules that can be applied to various time-related
features, e.g., dial schedule, rate limit rule, access control rule, etc. The schedule is
identified by a name and then referenced by a function, so that those time restrictions are
imposed on the function itself.
A schedule consists of a start date, an end date, and optional time periods (up to eight).
The Start Date and End Date specify when the schedule begins and ends. If exceed the
specified range, the schedule will be of no effect. If both of them are set to 1990-1-1, the
schedule will be in effect forever. The time periods (Period 1-8) specify further constraints
of active time by the days of the week, daily start time and daily end time.
Note
To ensure that the schedules take effect at the desired time, you should synchronize
the system clock in the System > Time page.

5. How to use CLI Rescue Mode
In most cases, the Device can normally boot or reboot in Normal Startup Mode. However,
sometimes you are unable to start the Device in Normal Startup Mode due to
configuration errors, forgetting the administrator password or other reasons. To solve this
problem, we provide Rescue Mode in the Device with ReOS 5.0 or a latter version.
After boot into Rescue Mode, the Device will run with factory default settings without
custom settings, so it will like a new device that KDVQ¶WEHHQ configured. In Rescue Mode,
it allows you to use any CLI command to perform any operation.
Note
Only the Device having a serial port supports Rescue Mode.
Here we take Windows XP for example to describe how to start the Device in Rescue
Mode. The operation steps are the following:
Step 1 Connect the RJ-45 connector of the supplied serial cable to the terminal port on
the Device, and the DB9 connector of the cable to an open COM port on your
PC.
Step 2 Click Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal,
the first screen that appears is the New Connection dialog box, see Figure
B-0-19; enter a name (rescue in this example) in the Name text box, and then
click OK button.
Note that if HyperTerminal is not installed, click Start > Settings > Control
Panel > Add or Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components >
Accessories and Utilities > Details > Communications > Details, select the
HyperTerminal check box, and then click OK.

6. IP/MAC Binding and Access Control
This section mainly describes the characteristics of the IP/MAC binding and access control
functions, and the relationship between them. Its purpose is to help you better understand
them, and use them to flexibly control and manage the Internet behaviors of the LAN
users to enhance network security.
To achieve network security management, you should firstly implement user identification, and
then you should implement user authorization. On the Device, you can use IP/MAC binding
feature to implement user identification, and use access control feature to use access control
rules to control the Internet behaviors of the LAN users.
Refer to section 12.2 IP/MAC Binding for more information about IP/MAC binding; refer to
section 12.3 Firewall for more information about access control.
A. IP/MAC Binding
The Device provides IP/MAC binding feature to implement user identification. Using the
IP/MAC address pair as a unique user identity, you can protect the Device and your network
against IP address theft, MAC address theft, IP spoofing attack, and MAC spoofing attack.
For those non-IP/MAC binding users (i.e., the users whose IP address and MAC address
both are different from any IP/MAC binding¶s.), the Device allows them to access the Device
and Internet by default. If you want to block them from accessing, please unselect the Allow
Undefined LAN PCs check box in the Security > IP/MAC Binding > IP/MAC Binding
List page.
IP/MAC binding feature can only act on the packets initiated from the LAN hosts to the
Device or outside hosts, but cannot act on the packets within the LAN. If you change a
LAN host¶s IP address or MAC address, this LAN host will be unable to access the Device
and access the Internet through the Device, but it still can communicate with the other
LAN hosts, such as, it can browse Network Neighborhood, use windows file and printer
sharing services within the LAN, and so on.
B. Access Control
The Device allows you to create access control rules by referencing address groups,
service groups and schedules.By default, as no access control rule exists on the Device,
the Device will forward all the valid packets received by the LAN interface. After you have
enabled access control, the Device will examine each packet received by the LAN
interface to determine whether to forward or drop the packet, based on the criteria you
specified in the access control rules.
C. The Relationship between Them
1) Using IP/MAC binding feature can only implement user identification, but cannot
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg1a7.png)
UTT Technologies Appendix B FAQ
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 408
control and manage the Internet behaviors of the LAN users. The latter is
implemented by access control function module.
2) In most cases, you can create an access control rule for a group of users. If some
users have the privileges of accessing the Internet, you can create an address group
for these hosts even their IP addresses are discontinuous. Then you only need to
create one access control rule by using the address group to meet the KRVWV¶
requirements, instead of creating a rule for each user respectively. Of course, you can
create access control rules for individual users if needed.
3) On the Device, at first you can use IP/MAC binding feature to implement user
identification, and then divide the LAN users into several address groups (the users with
the same Internet access privileges are divided into the same group), lastly create
different access control rules for different address groups. Thus, you can implement
not only user identification, but also Internet behavior management of LAN users to
ensure network security and efficient use of network resources.
D. Operation Process
When receiving a packet initiated from LAN to the Device or outside host, the Device will
process the packet in the following order:
1) User identification (i.e., the packet is processed by the IP/MAC binding function module)
a) If the sender is a legal user, the packet will be allowed to pass, and then be
further processed by the firewall access control function module.
b) If the sender is an illegal user, the packet will be dropped immediately
c) If the sender is an undefined user, there are two cases:
i. If the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box is selected, the packet will be
allowed to pass, and then be further processed by the firewall access control
function module.
ii. Else, the packet will be dropped immediately.
Note
The definitions of legal user, illegal user and undefined user are as follows:
ƔLegal User: A legal user¶s IP and MAC address pair matches an IP/MAC binding
whose Allow Internet Access check box is selected.
ƔIllegal User: A illegal user¶s IP and MAC address pair matches an IP/MAC
binding whose Allow Internet Access check box is unselected; or the IP
address or MAC address is the same with an IP/MAC binding¶s, but not both.
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg1a8.png)
UTT Technologies Appendix B FAQ
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 409
ƔUndefined User: An undefined user¶s IP address and MAC address both are
different from any IP/MAC binding. The undefined users are all the users except
legal and illegal users.
2) User authorization (i.e., the packet is processed by the firewall access control function
module)
When receiving a packet initiated from LAN, the Device will analyze the packet by
extracting its source MAC address, source IP address, destination IP address,
protocol type (TCP, UDP or ICMP), port number, content, and the date and time at
which the packet was received, and then compare them with each rule in the order in
which the rules are listed in the Access Control List.The first rule that matches the
packet will be applied to the packet, and the Device will forward or drop it according to this
rule¶s action. Note that after a match is found, no further rules will be checked; and if
no match is found, the Device will drop the packet to ensure security.
Note that if a schedule is referenced in an access control rule, you need judge
whether the schedule is in effect or not at first. If the schedule has expired, it will be of
no effect. In this case, if the access control rule still needs a time restriction, you
should reconfigure the schedule.
E. Configuration Procedure
From the above analysis, we can see that if you want to configure the network access
privileges for the LAN users, you need follow these steps:
1˅ At first, you need assign network access privileges to each LAN user: determine
whether a user can access and pass through the Device, and assign specific Internet
access privileges to the user.
2˅Divide the LAN users into several address groups: the users with the same Internet
access privileges are divided into the same address group.
3˅ Configure TCP/IP properties for each LAN user¶s host, and record each host¶s MAC
address.
4˅ Go to the Security > IP/MAC Binding page to create IP/MAC bindings. Note that if
you want to block the undefined LAN users from accessing the Device and Internet,
you should unselect the Allow Undefined LAN PCs check box.
5˅ Go to the Security > Address Group page to create address groups.
6˅ Go to the Security > Service Group page to create service groups.
7˅ Go to the System > Time page to synchronize the system clock.
8˅ If you want to create the access control rules based on schedules, go to the Security >
Schedule page to create schedules.

http://www.uttglobal.com Page 410
9˅ Go to the Security > Firewall page to create access control rules for each address
group respectively.

7. How to find out who uses the most bandwidth?
By viewing the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page, you can find out the
LAN user who uses the most bandwidth.
A. How to find out who has downloaded the most packets?
Query the Rx Packets in the NAT Statistics list: the larger value means the more
downloaded packets. The most Rx Packets means the corresponding LAN user has
downloaded the most packets from the Internet.
B. How to find out who has uploaded the most packets?
Query the Tx Packets in the NAT Statistics list: the larger value means the more
uploaded packets. The most Tx Packets means the corresponding LAN user has
uploaded the most packets to the Internet.
C. How to find out who is most active in the LAN?
Query the Active Sessions in the NAT Statistics list: the larger value means the user is
more active. The most Active Sessions means the corresponding user is the most active
in the LAN.

8. How to troubleshoot faults caused by worm
viruses or hacker attacks on the Device?
Note
Each of the following points can only be used as a reference for network troubleshooting,
but cannot be used as a basis for finding a network virus or attack.
A. How to find out who is using an IP/Port Scanner
When using an IP/Port Scanner, a host sends a larger number of ICMP/UDP/TCP
packets to the target host in a very short time to detect whether the target IP address
exists or there are open ports on the target host. The host using an IP/Port Scanner can
generate a large amount of traffic, and too much traffic (i.e., too heavy network load) will
cause network congestion, thus the other users may be unable to surf the Internet
normally.
On the Device, you can find out who is using an IP/Port Scanner through the following
three ways.
1) You can view the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page to find out if
there is a LAN host whose Overflow is larger than 100. If a host¶s concurrent NAT
sessions has reached the maximum value (configured in the Security > NAT
Session Limit page), any further request for creating a new session will be discarded,
and the Overflow will be updated synchronously; so if a host¶sOverflow is larger
than 100, the host is suspicious of using an IP/Port Scanner.
2) You can view the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page to find out if
there is a LAN host whose Tx Packets is far larger than Rx Packets. An IP/Port
Scanner often uses a forged source IP address to send out packets, this will cause
that the response packets cannot arrive at the sender; so if a host¶sTx Packets is far
larger than Rx Packets, the host is suspicious of using an IP/Port Scanner.
3) You can view system logs in the Status > System Log page to find out if there is a
NAT exceeded log message. For example, the log message of ³NAT exceeded
192.168.16.221´ means that the host with IP address 192.168.16.221 has exceeded
the maximum concurrent NAT sessions limited by the Device (configured in the
Security > NAT Session Limit page), and this host is suspicious of an IP/Port
Scanner.
Note
Recommended solution: It is recommended that you stop all the running
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg1ac.png)
UTT Technologies Appendix B FAQ
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 413
applications on that suspicious host, and then run an effective antivirus software,
lastly restart or reinstall the operating system.
B. How to find out who is attacking an Internet host with DoS/DDoS
ADoS attack (denial-of-service attack) or DDoS attack (distributed denial-of-service
attack) is an attempt to make a host resource unavailable to its intended users. When
performing a DoS/DDoS attack, a host sends a larger number of packets to the target
host (typically it is a web server) in a very short time to cause too heavy load on the host,
thus the host is unable to provide normal services. The host performing DoS/DDoS
attacks can generate a large amount of traffic, and too much traffic (i.e., too heavy network
load) will cause network congestion, thus the other users may be unable to surf the
Internet normally.
On the Device, you can find out who is performing a DoS/DDoS attack through the
following three ways.
1) You can view the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page to find out if
there is a LAN host whose Tx Packets is far larger than the other hostV¶, but its Rx
Packets is very small or zero. When a LAN host attacks an Internet host with
DoS/DDoS, it sends a large number of packets to the Internet host; so if a LAN host
meets the above conditions, it is suspicious of performing a DoS/DDoS attack.
Note that the user who is uploading files via HTTP/FTP should be excluded.
2) You can view the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page to find out if
there is a LAN host whose Tx Packets is far larger than Rx Packets. A DoS/DDoS
attack program often uses a forged source IP address to send out packets, this will
cause that the response packets cannot arrive at the sender; so if a host¶sTx
Packets is far larger than Rx Packets, the host is suspicious of performing a
DoS/DDoS attack.
3) You can view system logs in the Status > System Log page to find out if there is a
NAT exceeded log message. For example, the log message of ³NAT exceeded
192.168.16.221´ means that the host with IP address 192.168.16.221 has exceeded
the maximum concurrent NAT sessions limited by the Device (configured in the
Security > NAT Session Limit page), and this host is suspicious of performing a
DoS/DDoS attack.
Note
Recommended solution: It is recommended that you stop all the running
applications on that suspicious host, and then run an effective antivirus software,
lastly restart or reinstall the operating system.
C. How to find out a host infected with Code Red worm virus?
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg1ad.png)
UTT Technologies Appendix B FAQ
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 414
You can view the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page to find out if there is
a LAN host whose Tx Packets is very large but Rx Packets is very small or zero. If a host
meets the above conditions and KDVQ¶W XVHG DQ\ /$1 VHUYHU the host is likely to be
infected with Code Red worm virus.
D. How to find out a host performing a TCP SYN Flood, UDP Flood or
ICMP Flood attack?
You can view the NAT Statistics list in the Status > NAT Stats page to find out if there is
a LAN host whose Tx Packets is very large but Rx Packets is very small. If a host meets
the above conditions, the host is likely to perform a TCP SYN Flood, UDP Flood or ICMP
Flood attack.
Note
The user who is uploading files via HTTP/FTP should be excluded.
E. How to find out a host performing an ARP Spoofing attack?
You can view system logs in the Status > System Log page to find out if there is a LAN
host whose MAC address is changing constantly, for example, the following log message
means that the host with IP address 192.168.1.1 is likely to perform an ARP Spoofing
attack.
MAC New 00:22:aa:00:22:bb
MAC Old 00:22:aa:00:22:aa
ARP SPOOF 192.168.1.1
F. How to find out a host infected with Blaster/Sasser virus
The host infected with Blaster/Sasser virus randomly sends out a large number of ICMP
packets and broadcasts a large of number of packets whose destination port is 135, 137,
139 or 445, thus it causes network congestion even the whole internal and external
networks paralysis.
Go to the Status > Session Monitor page, select All from the Filter Option drop-down
list, and then click Query button to view all the active NAT sessions in the NAT Session
List. If there are many sessions whose Protocol is ICMP, and many sessions whose Dest
Port is 135, 137, 139 or 445, the corresponding LAN host is likely to be infected with
Blaster/Sasser virus.
If a host has been infected with Blaster virus, it has the following symptoms: inexplicably
crashes or restarts itself; links in IE cannot be opened properly; copy and paste operation
cannot be performed; sometimes there are certain applications running abnormally, such as
Word; network grows slowly; there is a process named msblast.exe in Task Manager.
If a host has been infected with Sasser virus, it has the following symptoms: inexplicably
![](/img.php?id=1659606&img=bg1ae.png)
UTT Technologies Appendix B FAQ
http://www.uttglobal.com Page 415
crashes or restarts itself; there is a process named avserve.exe,avserve2.exe or
skynetave.exe in Task Manager; there is a virus file named avserve.exe,avserve2.exe
or skynetave.exe in the system directory; system is running extremely slow, and CPU usage
is 100%.

9. How to enable WAN ping respond?
To facilitate debugging and testing your Internet connections, the Device provides Enable
WAN Ping Respond feature; that is, it allows you to ping each WAN interface¶s IP
address to detect whether each Internet connection is normal. The operation is as follows:
Go to the Security > Attack Defense > External Defense page, select the Enable WAN
Ping Respond check box, and then click the Save button.
After you have enabled WAN ping respond, you can test each Internet connection by
using ping command on an outside host. When you ping the IP address of a WAN
interface, correct responses from the WAN interface means that the corresponding
Internet connection is normal; else, the connection itself is abnormal, ping response is
disabled on a device between your PC and Device, or there is a configuration error in the
Device.
