ATM VC 32
ATM settings are used to connect to your ISP. Your ISP provides VPI, VCI settings to you. In this Device, you can totally setup 8 VCs on different encapsulations, if you apply 8 different virtual circuits from your ISP. You need to activate the VC to take effect. For PVCs management, you can use ATM QoS to setup each PVC traffic line's priority. Virtual Circuit: VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) define a virtual circuit.
ISP: Select the encapsulation type your ISP uses from the Encapsulation list. Choices vary depending on what you select in the Mode field. Dynamic IP: Select this option if your ISP provides you an IP address automatically. This option is typically used for Cable services. Please enter the Dynamic IP information accordingly. Static IP: Select this option to set static IP information. You will need to enter in the Connection type, IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address, provided to you by your ISP.
255.255.255.0.Type the subnet mask assigned to you by your ISP (if given). Gateway: You must specify a gateway IP address (supplied by your ISP) when you use 1483 Bridged IP in the Encapsulation field in the previous screen. NAT: Select this option to Disabled/Enable the NAT (Network Address Translation) function for this VC.
4.2.2 LAN A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many computers are attached and is limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building. Router Local IP IP Address: Enter the IP address of ADSL Router in dotted decimal notation, for example, 192.168.1.254 (factory default). IP Subnet Mask: The default is 255.255.255.0. User can change it to other such as 255.255.255.128. Dynamic Route: Select the RIP version from RIP-1, RIP-2B and RIP-2M.
DHCP DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. DHCP: If set to Enabled, your BiPAC 5200N RC Series can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client. If set to Disabled, the DHCP server will be disabled.
Access Point Settings Access Point: Default setting is set to Activated. If you do not have any wireless, both 802.11g, 802.11b and 802.11n, device in your network, select Deactivated. Channel ID: The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless devices is called a channel. Select a channel from the drop-down list box. Beacon interval: The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. Enter a value between 20 and 1000.
to synchronize the wireless network. RTS/CTS Threshold: The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) for enabling RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service data unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to zero turns on the RTS/CTS handshake Enter a value between 1500 and 2347.
Categories) voice, video, best effort and background but it does not provide a guarantee throughput. Choose Enable to activate the function or else leave it as Disable. Authentication Type: To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as WEP.&WPA. If you require high security for transmissions, there are four alternatives to select from: 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.
default key is key 1. WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK Encryption: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) or AES (Advanced Encryption System) utilizes a stronger encryption method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against hackers. Pre-Shared key: The key for network authentication. The input format is in character style and key size should be in the range between 8 and 63 characters.
4.3 Advanced Setup 4.3.1 Routing If you have another router with a LAN-to-LAN connection, you may create a static routing on the router that is the gateway to Internet. #: Item number Dest IP: IP address of the destination network Mask: The destination mask address. Gateway IP: IP address of the gateway or existing interface that this route uses. Metric: It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.
ADD Route Destination IP Address：This is the destination subnet IP address. IP Subnet Mask： ：It is the destination IP addresses based on above destination subnet IP Gateway IP Address： ：This is the gateway IP address to which packets are to be forwarded. Metric： ：It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.
4.3.2 NAT The NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet. The default setting is Dynamic NAT. It provides dynamic Network Address Translation capability between LAN and multiple WAN connections, and the LAN traffic is routed to appropriate WAN connections based on the destination IP addresses and Route Table. This eliminates the need for the static NAT session configuration between multiple LAN clients and multiple WAN connections.
DMZ setting for: Show the PVC that DMZ will be applied for. DMZ: Disabled: As set in default setting, it disables the DMZ function. Enabled: It activates your DMZ function. DMZ Host IP Address: Give a static IP address to the DMZ Host when Enabled radio button is checked. Be aware that this IP will be exposed to the WAN/Internet. Select the SAVE button to apply your changes.
The device can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such as Web or FTP services via the public (WAN) IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN network. Depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the device redirects the external service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network. Rule Index: Choose the rule number. Application: Choose the predefined rule from Application drop-down menu or enter a custom name.
IP Address Mapping Address Mapping Rule: Shows the PVC where the rule will be applied to Rule Index: Choose the rule number. Rule Type: One-to-one: This is the mode maps one local IP address to one global IP address. Note that port numbers do not change for the One-to-one NAT mapping type. Many-to-One: This is the mode maps multiple local IP addresses to one global IP address. This is equivalent to Many to One (i.e., PAT, port address translation).
Local End IP: This is the end range for Inside Local IP Address (ILA). If your rule is for all local IP addresses, then enter 0.0.0.0 as the Local Start IP address and 255.255.255.255 as the Local End IP address. This field is N/A for One-to-one and Server mapping types. Public Start IP: This is the start range for Inside Public IP Address. Enter 0.0.0.0 here if you have a dynamic IP address from your ISP. Public End IP: This is the end range for Inside Public IP Address.
4.3.3 QoS Quality of Service (QoS) helps to prioritize data as it enters your router. By attaching special identification marks or headers to incoming packets, QoS determines which queue the packets enter, based on priority. This is useful when there are certain types of data you want to give higher priority to, such as voice data packets given higher priority than Web data packets. The main goal of QoS is prioritizing incoming data, preventing data loss due to factors such as jitter, delay and dropping.
Rule You can set 16 different QoS rules. Each QoS rule has its detail setting conditions like: 802.1p,application, DSCP, IP, MAC, Protocol, TOS, VLAN etc, you can modify the default value to any new one you wish. Please notice that only when the packet fulfill every detail setting conditions here, then this packet will be remarked as the priority queue of each rule. The non-selected setting part will be treated as “don’t care” and the system will not handle this setting part.
Rule Index: Select 16 different rules, each rule’s detail can be set and saved. Active: Select QoS is activated or deactivated. Application: Select 11 different applications: IGMP, SIP, H.323, MGCP, SNMP, DNS, DHCP, RIP, RSTP, RTCP, RTP. Physical Ports: Once you select the application, the associated ports will be displayed. Destination MAC: Set the Ethernet MAC value that you want to filter in destination side. Destination IP: Set the IP address value that you want to filter in destination side.
DSCP Range: Set the DSCP value that you want to filter. 802.1p: Set the remarked new 802.1p priority value on the packet that fulfill every detail setting condition of each rule. Action After finishing all rules detail condition setting, select the rule you want to execute and action here. IPP/DS Field: Select IP QoS format. IP Precedence Remarking: Select the remarking value of IP precedence. Type of service Remarking: Select the remarking value of type of service.
select for this connection. 4.3.5 Firewall Your router includes a firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN and helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet. Firewall: Enabled: As set in default setting, it activates your firewall function.
4.4 Access Management 4.4.1 ACL Access Control Listing allows you to determine which services/protocols can access BiPAC 5200N RC Series interface from which computers. ACL Rule Index: This is item number Secure IP Address: The default 0.0.0.0 allows any client to use this service to remotely manage the BiPAC 5200N RC Series. Type an IP address to restrict access to a client with a matching IP address. Application: Choose a service that you may use to remotely manage the BiPAC 5200N RC Series.
4.4.2 Filter You can Filter the packages by IP port , MAC and Application. Filter Type Filter Type Selection: There are three types ”IP/MAC Filter”, ”Application Filter”, and “URL Filter” that user can select for this connection. IP/MAC Filter Set Editing IP/MAC Filter Set Index: This is item number Interface: Select which channel (PVC) to configure. Direction: Select the access to the Internet (“Outgoing”) or from the Internet (“Incoming”).or Both.
IP/MAC Filter Rule Editing IP/MAC Filter Rule Index: This is item number Rule Type: Choose “IP” or “MAC” rules Active: Select Yes from the drop down list box to enable IP filter rule. Source IP Address: The source IP address or range of packets to be monitored. Subnet Mask: It is the source IP addresses based on above source subnet IP Source Port Number: This Port or Port Ranges defines the port allowed to be used by the Remote/WAN to connect to the application. Default is set from range 0 ~ 65535.
Application Filter: Select this option to Activated/Deactivated the Application filter. ICQ: Select this option to Allow/Deny ICQ. MSN: Select this option to Allow/Deny MSN. YMSG: Select this option to Allow/Deny Yahoo messenger. Real Audio/Video: Select this option to Allow/Deny Real Audio/Video.
Active: Select Yes to enable URL Filter. URL Index: This is item number. URL: Allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular websites by their URL.
4.4.3 SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for exchanging management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite. BiPAC 5200N RC Series supports SNMP agent functionality which allows a manager station to manage and monitor the router through the network. Get Community: Type the Get Community, which is the password for the incoming Get-and GetNext requests from the management station.
4.4.4 UPnP UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device.
4.4.5 DDNS The Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name. This is especially useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.
4.5 Maintenance 4.5.1 Administrator In factory setting, the default password is admin, and that for user is also password. You can change the default password to ensure that someone cannot adjust your settings without your permission. Every time you change your password, please record the password and keep it at a safe place. New Password: Type the new password in this field Confirm Password: Type the new password again in this field.
4.5.2 Time Zone The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server outside your network. Choose your local time zone. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router will retrieve the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified. If you prefer to specify an SNTP server other than those in the drop-down list, simply enter its IP address as shown above.
4.5.3 Firmware Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified, and your router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes. To upgrade the firmware of BiPAC 5200N RC Series, you should download or copy the firmware to your local environment first.
DO NOT power down the router or interrupt the firmware upgrading while it is still in process. Improper operation could damage the router. Warning 4.5.4 SysRestart Click SysRestart with option Current Settings to reboot your router (and restore your last saved configuration). If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a firmware upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default Settings to reset to factory default settings.
