This is an ATM encapsulation of the IP protocol. The protocol status. VC 1 Bridge Settings Bridge = A bridge is a layer 2 device that connects two segments of the same LAN that use the same protocol such as Ethernet. The modem does not have a WAN IP address in this mode. The client PC will typically get an IP address form a DHCP server in the network or it can be assigned statically. Routed Bridge = Routed Bridged Encapsulation (RBE) is the process by which a bridged segment is terminated on a routed interface. Specifically, VersaLink is routing on an IEEE 802.3 or Ethernet header carried over RFC 1483 bridged ATM. RBE was developed to address the known RFC1483 bridging issues, including broadcast storms and security. The modem will get a WAN IP address through DHCP or can be assigned statically. NAT will use the global address assigned to the modem. Proxy Bridge = Proxy Bridge is the process in which the modem acts as a proxy ARP agent for a local public subnet. The modem will be assigned an IP address from within that public subnet. The modem will direct all traffic to a VersaLink, which is configured statically. VersaLink address must not reside within VersaLink’s assigned public subnet. All traffic will be sent via VersaLink’s MAC address. The LAN may also have a private NAT'ed network. NAT will use the global address assigned to the modem. VLAN = Assigns VLAN tags to individual data ports on the modem.

All fragments of the frame must have met this requirement if the frame was fragmented. The number of frames that successfully transmitted after more than one retry. Any fragment of a frame that required multiple retries would increment this counter for the whole frame. The number of frames that did not transmit due to the short or long retry limit being reached because no acknowledgement or CTS was received. The number of transmit requests that were discarded to free up buffer space on the NIC. This count is incremented when one of the following occurs: 1) A transmit request is queued too long on the transmit queue due to excessive retries, deferrals, scans, etc. 2) A transmit request is queued too long on the Power-Save queue because the station did not poll or wake up in time. The number of successfully received frames whose destination address was a single location, not necessarily the same location, but to any single location as opposed to the broadcast address. The number of successfully received frames whose destination address was a multicast address. Broadcast messages are included in this count. The number of fragments successfully received. This may not be equal to the sum of the Unicast and Multicast frames because large frames are broken into multiple transmissions.

Each connection profile is listed with its associated usage information. 135 January 2004 VersaLink™ Small Business Router User Guide Diagnostics Help This screen provides tools for diagnosing PPP connection problems. Some tests depend on VersaLink’s status and the capabilities exercised by previous tests, which may prevent other types of testing. Beginning of Diagnostics Help screens DSL VersaLink status checks the connection. The following is a list of the possible responses: Up Down DSL VersaLink is operating correctly and has obtained synchronization with the opposing modem. Explanation: VersaLink is operating correctly, but has not synchronized with the opposing DSLAM. Solution: First, check to be sure that the cable connecting VersaLink to the ADSL wall jack is properly connected at both ends. If the cable is properly connected and VersaLink does not synchronize, try another phone cable. Next, wait for VersaLink to train. It can sometimes take as long as two minutes for VersaLink to train. If it still has not come into synchronization, power cycle VersaLink. If you have tried the approach above and VersaLink still does not synchronize, contact your service provider. PPPoE The PPPoE status indicates if a PPPoE session is established (i.e., if the PPPoE Discovery procedure has completed). The following is a list of the possible responses: Session up no session initiating session Session halted passed Session failure 030-300390 Rev. A Draft 3 PPPoE A valid PPPoE session has been detected. Currently there is no active PPPoE session. A PPP session must be connected from the homepage screen. The connection process for a PPPoE session has been initialized. It can sometimes take a few seconds for the PPPoE Discovery procedure to complete. Wait 10-15 seconds and try again. If the PPPoE Discovery still cannot complete, there may be a configuration issue with your service provider's equipment. Verify your VPI/VCI settings (on the LAN Advanced page) and contact your ISP provider. A successful PPPoE session was halted. A PPP session must be connected from the homepage screen. A valid PPPoE session was established. A PPPoE session could not be made. There may be a configuration issue with your service provider's equipment. Verify your VPI/VCI settings (on the LAN Advanced page) and contact your provider. 136 January 2004 VersaLink™ Small Business Router User Guide PPP This field displays the PPP Connection status. A PPPoE or PPPoA session must already be established. The following is a list of the possible responses: Connection up no connection initiating connection Connection halted Cannot connect Authorization failure Link control protocol failed PPP VersaLink has established a PPP connection. There is no PPP connection. A PPP session must be connected from the homepage screen. The PPP connection process has been initialized. A successful PPP connection was halted. Solution: A PPP session must be connected from the homepage screen. Explanation: A PPP connection could not be made because of a PPPoE session failure. The username or password is incorrect. Verify that the username and password your Service Provider issued are entered correctly. Try re-establishing the session (from the home page). If this doesn't help, there may be a configuration issue or other failure with your provider's equipment. Contact your service provider. Self Test The Self Test performs an integrity check of certain internal components of VersaLink. The following is a list of the possible responses: Success Flash Corrupt Self Test VersaLink is operating correctly. Explanation: The self-test process has detected a problem with internal flash memory. Solution: Restart VersaLink. If the error persists, contact your service provider. PING ISPs' VersaLink The IP remote VersaLink test performs an IP network check (i.e., an IP Ping) of the Service Provider's VersaLink. This test verifies that VersaLink can exchange IP traffic with an entity on the other side of the DSL line. The following is a list of the possible responses: Success No Response could not test 030-300390 Rev. A Draft 3 PING ISP’s VersaLink VersaLink has detected an IP remote VersaLink connection. Explanation: This message will occur when an IP remote VersaLink does not answer the IP Ping. Solution: This test fails when the provider's VersaLink does not give its IP address to VersaLink during session establishment. Try Pinging another host, using the Ping test near the bottom of the Diagnostic screen. If you are able to Ping any host, or even if you are able to find an IP address for a given host name (try "www.yahoo.com"), then the failure of the "IP Remote VersaLink" test is moot, because the success of the Ping demonstrates that you are getting IP traffic across the DSL line. If the separate Ping fails as well, contact your service provider. Explanation: Test could not be executed because of VersaLink status. 137 January 2004 VersaLink™ Small Business Router User Guide DNS The DNS test issues a request to try to resolve the name of a particular host. The host name is entered in the input box. The following is a list of the possible responses: Success No Response Host not found No data, enter host name could not test DNS VersaLink has successfully obtained the resolved address. The IP address is shown below the host name input box Explanation: VersaLink has failed to successfully obtain the resolved address. Solution: Determine the IP addresses of your DNS servers (from the home page, click "Edit" and then "Advanced"), and then use the Ping test near the bottom of the Diagnostic screen to try to Ping those addresses. This may provide useful information when you contact your service provider and speak with Technical Support. Explanation: The DNS Server was unable to find an address for the given host name. Solution: That host may no longer be available on the Internet. Try entering a different host name. Explanation: There must be a host name entered in the input box. Explanation: Test could not be executed because of VersaLink status. PING Select PING to check IP continuity to a remote computer either within or beyond the Service Providers network. Enter either the IP address or the hostname of the remote host computer into the input box to the right of the Test button. If you Ping by name, DNS will be used to look up the appropriate IP address for that name. The following is a list of the possible responses: Success No Response No name or address to PING could not test PING The Remote Host Computer was detected. Explanation: This message will occur when there was no response to the Ping from the remote computer. Solution: Bear in mind that many hosts on the Internet are configured for security reasons to not respond to IP Ping messages. If you get a success from the DNS test using the same host name, chances are good that your connection is fine, whether you can Ping the named host or not. Explanation: There must be a host name or IP address entered in the input box in order for VersaLink to Ping. Explanation: Test could not be executed because of VersaLink status.

The Account Password is a key phrase or text string that verifies your identity to the ISP. VersaLink stores several service profiles. A service profile is a collection of settings for the built-in firewall and NAT. These settings control which applications are enabled to talk through VersaLink. This selection specifies which service profile is used when VersaLink is using this connection. These radio buttons specify how this connection profile is used. A manual setting requires that this connection must be manually established through the “homepage” connection button. When this is set to auto, VersaLink will monitor the network traffic and determine when a connection needs to be made. The connection process will happen automatically the “Always ON” selection causes VersaLink to aggressively establish a connection with your ISP. Whenever VersaLink detects that the connection to your ISP is down, it will try to reestablish that connection. Selecting this option will enable the disconnect timeout. If this option is enabled VersaLink will monitor the ISP connection for activity. If there is no activity for the timeout period, VersaLink will disconnect from the ISP.

It allows you to set the level of security you wish to have on your local network. All security levels except “None” protect against known Internet attacks and devices that attempt to gain remote access to VersaLink. The following settings are displayed. High Medium Low Custom Firewall Settings This security level only allows basic Internet functionality. Only Mail, News, Web, FTP, and IPSEC are allowed. No other traffic is allowed. Another restriction of high security is that it can’t be modified by NAT configuration options. With High security, you are guaranteed to only pass the previously mentioned traffic. This security level only allows basic Internet functionality by default. Like High security, Medium security, allows customization through NAT configuration, so you can enable the traffic that you want to pass. The low security setting will allow all traffic except for known attacks. With low security, VersaLink is visible by other computers on the Internet. Custom is a very advanced configuration option that allows you to edit the firewall configuration directly. Only the most expert users should try this. Home Page The home page gives you a quick summary of VersaLink’s state. The following settings are displayed. Connection Overview Connection Name Profile Editor Home Page The Connection Overview section displays the status of the DSL connection. The DSL must show a state of “UP” in order for VersaLink to communicate with your service provider’s network.

This is not necessarily an error, as some Gateways are configured to ignore trace route packets or do not have DNS name. 145 January 2004 VersaLink™ Small Business Router User Guide Turbo TCP Turbo Turbo TCP is a sophisticated network traffic prioritization and queuing method that dramatically improves the performance of downstream TCP/FTP/HTTP transfers under heavy upstream bandwidth utilization conditions. This feature first assigns a high priority to TCP signaling packets in the upstream direction, then places the packet in one of several transmit queues based on this priority. Packets of unspecified priority, like TCP or UDP data, are assigned a low priority and placed in a low priority queue. The packets in the high priority queues are then transmitted before packets in the lower priority queues minimizing any transmit delays. Minimizing the transmit delay of the TCP messages upstream enables the server to send the TCP data downstream faster, resulting in a substantial throughput gain.

A Draft 3 AP-Access Point BSSID-Basic Service Set ID FW-Firmware MAC-Media Access Controller NIC-Network Interface Card SSID-Service Set ID WEP-Wired Equivalent Privacy WLAN-Wireless Local Area Network This string, (32 characters or less) is the name associated with the AP. To connect to the AP, the SSID on a Station card must match the SSID on the AP card or be set to “ANY.” The AP transmits and receives data on this channel. The number of channels to choose from is pre-programmed into the AP card. Station cards do not have to be set to the same channel as the AP; the Stations scan all channels, and look for an AP to connect to. The AP card supports 64-bit, 128-bit, or 256-bit WEP encryption. The WEP option can also be disabled. If so, any station can connect to the AP (as long as its SSID matches the AP SSID). If selected, the WEP Key is treated as a string of text characters, and the number of characters must be either 5 (for 64-bit encryption) or 13 (for 128bit encryption) or 29 (for 256-bit encryption). If not selected, the WEP key is treated as a string of hexadecimal characters, and the number of characters must be either 10 (for 64-bit encryption), 26 (for 128-bit encryption), or 58 (for 256-bit encryption). The only allowable hexadecimal characters are 0-9 and A-F. NOTE: The WEP key must be the same value and type for both Versa Link and the wireless network adapter. “Pass Phrase” is not the same as “text” and should not be used. If selected, the SSID is hidden from detection in certain frames of the radio protocol. This makes the SSID harder to discover by external equipment capable of passively scanning the radio signal. Additionally, the station SSID must match the AP Network Name (SSID); the generic station SSID, “ANY” will be refused. 147 January 2004 VersaLink™ Small Business Router User Guide Data Rates (Mbits/s) These are the allowable communication rates that the AP will attempt to use. The rates are broadcast within the connection protocol as rates supported by the VersaLink. If multiple rates are chosen, multi-rate communication and automatic optimum rate selection is possible. This is the default, and provides the most flexible system. If the Station signal strength or quality is poor, and the throughput of the connection is slow or intermittent, select only the lower two data rates (1 and 2 MB). This can improve performance by reducing the number of pad packets, re-tries and timeouts that could be occurring when the higher rates are automatically trying to be used. Lower rates can be maintained over longer distances and in a wider range of environments. Wireless Station Configuration The configuration of wireless stations must correspond with VersaLink’s configuration. Typically, WLAN station cards come with a utility for changing the card configuration. Additionally, the WLAN driver might present configuration options as part of the Properties for the installed wireless network adapter. The following configuration items should be considered when setting up a station card. SSID Mode Tx Rate (Data Rate) Encryption Authentication Algorithm This is a description of the default connection profile, which VersaLink will use. Feel free to use whatever description you desire. The station’s operating mode must be set to, Infrastructure. Most station configuration software will use this term to indicate operation with an AP. Other terms used are ESS or BSS. The terms Ad-Hoc or IBSS indicate operation without an AP; these terms should not be selected. The station’s transmission rate (data rate) should be set to Automatic. Selecting a specific data r ate is typically only done in difficult environments where conditions limit the maximum possible rate to less than 54 megabits per second. The station’s encryption settings must match the AP’s settings. This includes the settings for 64-bit, 128-bit, and 256-bit encryption (or none) and the WEP keys. Make certain that the key entries use the same format. The two typical formats provided are simple text entry and hexadecimal entry. Text entry is sometimes termed ASCII entry. Hexadecimal entry is sometimes termed Hex or Manual entry. Do not use the Pass Phrase option if it is present. On the station, this setting is typically located under the Advanced properties for the wireless network adapter. Two or three algorithm settings are usually present. These might be termed: “Must use Shared for WEP,” “Automatic based on WEP setting” and/or “WECA compliant.” Select “Automatic based on WEP setting” or “Must use Shared for WEP.” Wireless Statistics Network Name (SSID) 802.11b/g/g+ MAC Address (BSSID) Primary FW Secondary FW 030-300390 Rev.
