Firewall and Access Control Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. Besides, when using NAT, the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, as all PCs on your LAN will use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet. Firewall: Prevent outsiders from accessing your local network.
Listed are the items under the Firewall section: General Settings, Packet Filter, Intrusion Detection, URL Filter, IM/P2P Blocking and Firewall Log. General Settings You can choose not to enable Firewall and still able to access to URL Filter and IM/P2P Blocking or enable the Firewall using preset filter rules and modify the port filter rules as required. The Packet Filter is used to filter packets based-on Applications (Port) or IP addresses.
SIP ALG: You can choose to enable or disable SIP ALG by clicking on the radio buttons. FTP ALG: You can choose to enable or disable FTP ALG by clicking on the radio buttons.
Packet Filter This function is only available when the Firewall is enabled and one of these four security levels is chosen (All blocked, High, Medium and Low). The preset port filter rules in the Packet Filter must modify accordingly to the level of Firewall, which is selected. See Table1: Predefined Port Filter for more detail information.
66
Example: Predefined Port Filters Rules The predefined port filter rules for High, Medium and Low security levels are listed. See Table 1. Note: Firewall – All Blocked/User-defined, you must define and create the port filter rules yourself. No predefined rule is being preconfigured.
Inbound: Internet to LAN Outbound: LAN to Internet YES: Allowed NO: Blocked N/A: Not Applicable Packet Filter – Add TCP/UDP Filter Rule Name Helper: Users-define description to identify this entry or click “Select” drop-down menu to select existing predefined rules. The maximum name length is 32 characters. Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy.
Packet Filter – Add Raw IP Filter Go to “Type” drop-down menu, select “Use Protocol Number”. Rule Name Helper: Users-define description to identify this entry or choosing “Select” drop-down menu to select existing predefined rules. Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy.
As you can see from the diagram below, when the firewall is enabled with one of the three presets (Low/Medium/High), inbound HTTP access is not allowed which means remote access through HTTP to your router is not allowed. Note: Inbound indicates accessing from Internet to LAN and Outbound is from LAN to the Internet.
Configuring Packet Filter: 1. Click Packet Filters. You will then be presented with the predefined port filter rules screen (in this case for the low security level), shown below: Note: You may click Edit the predefined rule instead of Delete it. This is an example to show to how you add a filter on your own. 2. Choose the radio button you want to delete the existing HTTP rule. Click Edit/Delete button to delete the existing HTTP rule. 3.
Example: Application: Cindy_HTTP Time Schedule: Always On Source / Destination IP Address(es): 0.0.0.0 (I do not wish to active the address-filter, instead I use the port-filter) Type: TCP (Please refer to Table1: Predefined Port Filter) Source Port: 0-65535 (I allow all ports to connect with the application)) Redirect Port: 80-80 (This is Port defined for HTTP) Inbound / Outbound: Allow 1. The new port filter rule for HTTP is shown below: 2.
73
Intrusion Detection The router’s Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is used to detect hacker attacks and intrusion attempts from the Internet. If the IDS function of the firewall is enabled, inbound packets are filtered and blocked depending on whether they are detected as possible hacker attacks, intrusion attempts or other connections that the router determines to be suspicious. Blacklist: If the router detects a possible attack, the source IP or destination IP address will be added to the Blacklist.
cannot protect against such attacks.
ICMP Echo Max PING Count (Default 15 c/sec) Yes Src IP: Source IP Src Port: Source Port Dst Port: Destination Port Dst IP: Destination IP 76
URL Filter URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.abcde.com or http:// www.example.com) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular websites by their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet your requirements. Enable/Disable: To enable or disable URL Filter feature. Block Mode: A list of the modes that you can choose to check the URL filter rules. The default is set to Always On.
Domains Filtering: This function checks the whole URL not the IP address, in URLs accessed against your list of domains to block or allow. If it is matched, the URL request will be sent (Trusted) or dropped (Forbidden). For this function to be activated, both check-boxes must be checked. Here is the checking procedure: 1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection attempt is sent to the remote web server. 2.
Example: Andy wishes to disable all WEB traffic except for ones listed in the trusted domain, which would prevent Bobby from accessing other web sites. Andy selects both functions in the Domain Filtering and thinks that it will stop Bobby. But Bobby knows this function, Domain Filtering, ONLY disables all WEB traffic except for Trusted Domain, BUT not its IP address. If this is the situation, Block surfing by IP address function can be handy and helpful to Andy.
IM / P2P Blocking IM, short for Instant Message, is required to use client program software that allows users to communicate, in exchanging text message, with other IM users in real time over the Internet. A P2P application, known as Peer-to-peer, is group of computer users who share file to specific groups of people across the Internet. Both Instant Message and Peer-to-peer applications make communication faster and easier but your network can become increasingly insecure at the same time.
Firewall Log Firewall Log display log information of any unexpected action with your firewall settings. Check the Enable box to activate the logs. Log information can be seen in the Status – Event Log after enabling.

PSTN Dial Plan Examples: 1. Dial with Prefix If you dial 01223 707070, number 01223707070 will be dialed out via FXO to make a regular phone call. 2. Dial without Prefix If you dial 9102, the number 102 will only be dialed out via FXO port to make a regular phone call. 3. Dial at Timeout If you only dial 01223 7070 and no more numbers, after the timeout activates, 012237070 will be dialed to make a regular call via FXO port.
Even though 7070 (only 4 digits) does not match with number of digits 6 defined in the filed, 7070 is still a valid phone number since it has not exceeded 6 digits. 4. Dial at Timeout no Prefix If you only dial 97070 and no more numbers, after the timeout activates, 7070 will be dialed without prefix to make a regular call via FXO port. Even though 7070 (only 4 digits) does not match with number of digits 6 defined in the filed, 7070 is still a valid phone number since it has not exceed 6 digits.
VoIP Dial Plan This section helps you to make a telephony number dialed as making a regular call via VoIP. You no longer need to memorize a long dial string of number for making a VoIP call. Go to Configuration > VoIP > VoIP Dial Plan > Edit. Parameters A listed of special dial feature comes handy when you have a miss call or need to transfer a call to a third party. Details please refer to the section Special dial codes below. *69 (Return Call): Dial *69 to return the last missed call.
by default. Phone Number + #: This is the fast dial which you can dial out a phone number immediately without waiting. Note: Refer to Special Dial Code section in this Manual for more details. Test: It is a tool to help to identify the call number is being properly being processed prior to making an actual call. Click Apply to apply the settings.
Dial Plan Rules List Click the Add button to create and define a VoIP dial-plan rule(s). Prefix Processing: Prepend xxx unconditionally: xxx number is appended unconditionally to the front of the dialing number when making a call. Prefix can also be included with any number and/or character such as +, *, #. Note: For special service with +, *, #, you may need to check with your VoIP or Local Telephone Service Provider for information.
<@ Current Profile>: Referring to the VoIP account registered on the VoIP Wizard for Port 1 / 2. <@ PSTN>: Meaning making call(s) via the PSTN line. <@ENUM>: Meaning making a VoIP SIP direct call via E.164 number (“ENUM”) to an ENUM callee. Electronic Number (ENUM) uses the DNS (Domain Network System) based technology to map between a traditional phone number (PSTN) to an Internet addresses/ SIP URL. The ENUM number must be registered via a public ENUM site or your VoIP Service Provider.
localcheap.com, longdischeap.com and mobilecheap.com. Each provider has its price for different type of calls and I can set the following rule for each providers. 1. Phone 1: For Local calls: I use localcheap.com that charges $0.01 per minute to all local calls. I set a dial rule, <:03>[123]x.T, on my phone port 1. Localcheap.com is the default VoIP provider I set on phone port 1.
Call Feature Speed Dial Ring & Tone This section allows advanced user to change the existing or newly defined parameters for the various ring tones (dial tone, busy tone, answer tone and etc.
Country Specific Ring & Tone Region: Select a country ring-tone, from the drop-down list, where you are located. This VoIP router provides default parameter of ring tones according to different countries. The ring-tone parameters are automatically displayed after entering a specific country. If your country is not in the list, you may manually create ring-tone parameters.
Ring Parameters Ring Cadence (in ms): Ring cadence is defined by three fields, Frequency: On Time1, Off Time1, On Time2, Off Time2 and On Time3, Off Time3. Frequency is specified in Hertz. Time is given in milliseconds. Tone Parameters You may need to check with your local telephone service provider for such information. Also, it is recommended that this option be configured by advanced user unless you are instructed to do so. Click Apply to apply the settings.
QoS - Quality of Service QoS function helps you to control your network traffic for each application from LAN (Ethernet and/or Wireless) to WAN (Internet). It facilitates you to control the different quality and speed of through put for each application when the system is running with full loading of upstream. Here are the items within the QoS section: Prioritization, Outbound IP Throttling & Inbound IP Throttling (bandwidth management).
Destination IP Address Range: The destination IP address or range of packets to be monitored. Destination Port: The destination port of packets to be monitored. DSCP Marking: Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), it is the first 6 bits in the ToS byte. DSCP Marking allows users to assign specific application traffic to be executed in priority by the next Router based on the DSCP value. See Table 4 for DSCP Mapping Table.
Protocol: The name of supported protocol. Rate Limit: To limit the speed of outbound traffic Source IP Address Range: The source IP address or range of packets to be monitored. Source Port(s): The source port of packets to be monitored. Destination IP Address Range: The destination IP address or range of packets to be monitored. Destination Port(s): The destination port of packets to be monitored.
Inbound IP Throttling (WAN to LAN) IP Throttling allows you to limit the speed of IP traffic. The value entered will limit the speed of the application that you set to the specified value’s multiple of 32kbps. Name: User-define description to identify this new policy/application. Time Schedule: Scheduling your prioritization policy. Refer to Time Schedule for more information. Protocol: The name of supported protocol. Rate Limit: To limit the speed of for inbound traffic.
Example: QoS for your Network Connection Diagram 105
Information and Settings Upstream: 928 kbps Downstream: 8 Mbps VoIP User : 192.168.1.1 Normal Users : 192.168.1.2~192.168.1.5 Restricted User: 192.168.1.
Mission-critical application Mostly the VPN connection is mission-critical application for doing data exchange between head and branch office. The mission-critical application must be sent out smoothly without any dropping. Set priority as high level for preventing any other applications to saturate the bandwidth. Voice application Voice is latency-sensitive application. Most VoIP devices are use SIP protocol and the port number will be assigned by SIP module automatically.
With above settings that help to limit utilization of upstream of FTP. Time schedule also help you to only limit utilization at daytime. Advanced setting by using IP throttling With IP throttling you can specify more detail for allocating bandwidth; even the applications are located in the same level.
Sometime your customers or friends may upload their files to your FTP server and that will saturate your downstream bandwidth. The settings below help you to limit bandwidth for the restricted application.
Virtual Server (known as Port Forwarding) In TCP/IP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can locate them.
Add Virtual Server Because NAT can act as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from being accessed by outside users when using NAT, as all incoming connection attempts will point to your router unless you specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network. When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”.
Example: If you like to remote accessing your Router through the Web/HTTP at all time, you would need to enable port number 80 (Web/HTTP) and map to Router’s IP Address. Then all incoming HTTP requests from you (Remote side) will be forwarded to the Router with IP address of 192.168.1.254. Since port number 80 has already been predefined, next to the Application click Helper. A list of predefined rules window will pop and select HTTP_Sever.
Edit DMZ Host The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port number used by any other Virtual Server entries. Cautious: This Local computer exposing to the Internet may face varies of security risks.
Edit One-to-One NAT (Network Address Translation) One-to-One NAT maps a specific private/local IP address to a global/public IP address. If you have multiple public/WAN IP addresses from you ISP, you are eligible for One-to-One NAT to utilize these IP addresses. Go to Configuration > Virtual Server > Edit One-to-one NAT NAT Type: Select desired NAT type. As set in default setting, it disables the One-to-One NAT function.
Application: Users-defined description to identify this entry or click select drop-down menu to select existing predefined rules. Select: 20 predefined rules are available. Application, Protocol and External/Redirect Ports will be filled after the selection. Protocol: It is the supported protocol for the virtual server. In addition to specifying the port number to be used, you will also need to specify the protocol used. The protocol used is determined by the particular application.
Example: List of some well-known and registered port numbers. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the central coordinator for the assignment of unique parameter values for Internet protocols. Port numbers range from 0 to 65535, but only ports numbers 0 to 1023 are reserved for privileged services and are designated as “well-known ports” (Please refer to Table 5). The registered ports are numbered from 1024 through 49151.
Wake on LAN Wake on LAN (WOL, sometimes WoL) is an Ethernet computer networking standard that allows a computer to be turned on or woken up remotely by a network message.

Advanced Configuration options within the Advanced section are for users who wish to take advantage of the more advanced features of the router. Users who do not understand the features should not attempt to reconfigure their router, unless advised to do so by support staff. Here are the items within the Advanced section: Static Route, Static ARP, Dynamic DNS, Device Management, IGMP and VLAN Bridge.
Static ARP Go to Configuration > Advanced > Static ARP IP Address: Fill in the IP address of the host computer that is sending the data packet. MAC Address: Fill in the MAC address of the computer that the incoming data packets are to be forwarded. Dynamic DNS 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.
L Enable: Check to enable the Dynamic DNS function. The following fields will be activated and required. Dynamic DNS Server: Select the DDNS service you have established an account with. Domain Name, Username and Password: Enter your registered domain name and your username and password for this service. Period: Set the time period between updates, for the Router to exchange information with the DDNS server.
Device Management The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router’s security options and device monitoring features. Device Host Name Host Name: Assign it a name. (The Host Name cannot be used with one word only. There are two words should be connected with a ‘.’ at least. Example: Host Name: homegateway ==> Incorrect Host Name: home.gateway or my.home.
HTTP Port: This is the port number the router’s embedded web server (for web-based configuration) will use. The default value is the standard HTTP port, 80. Users may specify an alternative if, for example, they are running a web server on a PC within their LAN. Management IP Address: You may specify an IP address allowed to logon and access the router’s web server. Setting the IP address to 0.0.0.0 will disable IP address restrictions, allowing users to login from any IP address.
configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data. Trap Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Trap Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be sent SNMP Traps. SNMP V3: Specify a name and password for authentication. And define the access right from identified IP address.
