CHAPTER 5 WAN Setup This chapter describes how to configure WAN settings. 5.1 WAN Overview A WAN (Wide Area Network) is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. 5.1.1 Encapsulation Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The ZyXEL Device supports the following methods. 5.1.1.1 ENET ENCAP The MAC Encapsulated Routing Link Protocol (ENET ENCAP) is only implemented with the IP network protocol.
Chapter 5 WAN Setup 5.1.1.3 PPPoA PPPoA stands for Point to Point Protocol over ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5). A PPPoA connection functions like a dial-up Internet connection. The ZyXEL Device encapsulates the PPP session based on RFC1483 and sends it through an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) to the Internet Service Provider’s (ISP) DSLAM (DSL Access Multiplexer). Please refer to RFC 2364 for more information on PPPoA. Refer to RFC 1661 for more information on PPP. 5.1.1.
Chapter 5 WAN Setup 5.1.4.1 IP Assignment with PPPoA or PPPoE Encapsulation If you have a dynamic IP, then the IP Address and ENET ENCAP Gateway fields are not applicable (N/A). If you have a static IP, then you only need to fill in the IP Address field and not the ENET ENCAP Gateway field. 5.1.4.2 IP Assignment with RFC 1483 Encapsulation In this case the IP Address Assignment must be static with the same requirements for the IP Address and ENET ENCAP Gateway fields as stated above. 5.1.4.
Chapter 5 WAN Setup For example, if the normal route has a metric of "1" and the traffic-redirect route has a metric of "2" and dial-backup route has a metric of "3", then the normal route acts as the primary default route. If the normal route fails to connect to the Internet, the ZyXEL Device tries the traffic-redirect route next. In the same manner, the ZyXEL Device uses the dial-backup route if the traffic-redirect route also fails.
Chapter 5 WAN Setup 5.3.1 ATM Traffic Classes These are the basic ATM traffic classes defined by the ATM Forum Traffic Management 4.0 Specification. 5.3.1.1 Constant Bit Rate (CBR) Constant Bit Rate (CBR) provides fixed bandwidth that is always available even if no data is being sent. CBR traffic is generally time-sensitive (doesn't tolerate delay). CBR is used for connections that continuously require a specific amount of bandwidth.

CHAPTER 6 LAN Setup This chapter describes how to configure LAN settings. 6.1 LAN Overview A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many computers are attached. A LAN is a computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building. The LAN screens can help you configure a LAN DHCP server and manage IP addresses. See Section 6.3 on page 97 to configure the LAN screens. 6.1.
Chapter 6 LAN Setup 6.1.2 DHCP Setup DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can configure the ZyXEL Device as a DHCP server or disable it. When configured as a server, the ZyXEL Device provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If you turn DHCP service off, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computer must be manually configured. 6.1.2.
Chapter 6 LAN Setup • The ISP tells you the DNS server addresses, usually in the form of an information sheet, when you sign up. If your ISP gives you DNS server addresses, enter them in the DNS Server fields in the DHCP Setup screen. • The ZyXEL Device acts as a DNS proxy when the Primary and Secondary DNS Server fields are left as 0.0.0.0 in the DHCP Setup screen. 6.
Chapter 6 LAN Setup 6.2.1.1 Private IP Addresses Every machine on the Internet must have a unique address. If your networks are isolated from the Internet, for example, only between your two branch offices, you can assign any IP addresses to the hosts without problems. However, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following three blocks of IP addresses specifically for private networks: • 10.0.0.0 — 10.255.255.255 • 172.16.0.0 — 172.31.255.255 • 192.168.0.0 — 192.168.255.
Chapter 6 LAN Setup 6.2.3 Multicast Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender - 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender - everybody on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to a group of hosts on the network - not everybody and not just 1. IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.

CHAPTER 7 Network Address Translation (NAT) Screens This chapter discusses how to configure NAT on the ZyXEL Device. 7.1 NAT Overview NAT (Network Address Translation, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet, for example, the source address of an outgoing packet, used within one network to a different IP address known within another network. 7.1.
Chapter 7 Network Address Translation (NAT) Screens 7.1.2 What NAT Does In the simplest form, NAT changes the source IP address in a packet received from a subscriber (the inside local address) to another (the inside global address) before forwarding the packet to the WAN side. When the response comes back, NAT translates the destination address (the inside global address) back to the inside local address before forwarding it to the original inside host.
Chapter 7 Network Address Translation (NAT) Screens Figure 45 NAT Application With IP Alias 7.1.5 NAT Mapping Types NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are: • One to One: In One-to-One mode, the ZyXEL Device maps one local IP address to one global IP address. • Many to One: In Many-to-One mode, the ZyXEL Device maps multiple local IP addresses to one global IP address.
Chapter 7 Network Address Translation (NAT) Screens The following table summarizes these types.

CHAPTER 8 Firewalls This chapter gives some background information on firewalls and introduces the ZyXEL Device firewall. 8.1 Firewall Overview Originally, the term firewall referred to a construction technique designed to prevent the spread of fire from one room to another. The networking term “firewall” is a system or group of systems that enforces an access-control policy between two networks. It may also be defined as a mechanism used to protect a trusted network from an untrusted network.
Chapter 8 Firewalls 8.2.2 Application-level Firewalls Application-level firewalls restrict access by serving as proxies for external servers. Since they use programs written for specific Internet services, such as HTTP, FTP and telnet, they can evaluate network packets for valid application-specific data.
Chapter 8 Firewalls 8.3.1 Denial of Service Attacks Figure 52 ZyXEL Device Firewall Application 8.4 Denial of Service Denials of Service (DoS) attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to the Internet. Their goal is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network so users no longer have access to network resources. The ZyXEL Device is pre-configured to automatically detect and thwart all known DoS attacks. 8.4.
Chapter 8 Firewalls 4 IP Spoofing. 5 "Ping of Death" and "Teardrop" attacks exploit bugs in the TCP/IP implementations of various computer and host systems. • Ping of Death uses a "ping" utility to create an IP packet that exceeds the maximum 65,536 bytes of data allowed by the IP specification. The oversize packet is then sent to an unsuspecting system. Systems may crash, hang or reboot. • Teardrop attack exploits weaknesses in the re-assembly of IP packet fragments.
Chapter 8 Firewalls Figure 54 SYN Flood • In a LAND Attack, hackers flood SYN packets into the network with a spoofed source IP address of the targeted system. This makes it appear as if the host computer sent the packets to itself, making the system unavailable while the target system tries to respond to itself. 7 A brute-force attack, such as a "Smurf" attack, targets a feature in the IP specification known as directed or subnet broadcasting, to quickly flood the target network with useless data.
Chapter 8 Firewalls 8.4.2.1 ICMP Vulnerability ICMP is an error-reporting protocol that works in concert with IP. The following ICMP types trigger an alert: Table 36 ICMP Commands That Trigger Alerts 5 REDIRECT 13 TIMESTAMP_REQUEST 14 TIMESTAMP_REPLY 17 ADDRESS_MASK_REQUEST 18 ADDRESS_MASK_REPLY 8.4.2.2 Illegal Commands (NetBIOS and SMTP) The only legal NetBIOS commands are the following - all others are illegal.
Chapter 8 Firewalls are allowed in. The ZyXEL Device uses stateful packet inspection to protect the private LAN from hackers and vandals on the Internet. By default, the ZyXEL Device’s stateful inspection allows all communications to the Internet that originate from the LAN, and blocks all traffic to the LAN that originates from the Internet. In summary, stateful inspection: • Allows all sessions originating from the LAN (local network) to the WAN (Internet).
Chapter 8 Firewalls 6 Later, an inbound packet reaches the interface. This packet is part of the connection previously established with the outbound packet. The inbound packet is evaluated against the inbound access list, and is permitted because of the temporary access list entry previously created. 7 The packet is inspected by a firewall rule, and the connection's state table entry is updated as necessary.
Chapter 8 Firewalls If an initiation packet originates on the LAN, this means that someone is trying to make a connection from the LAN to the Internet. Assuming that this is an acceptable part of the security policy (as is the case with the default policy), the connection will be allowed. A cache entry is added which includes connection information such as IP addresses, TCP ports, sequence numbers, etc.
Chapter 8 Firewalls 8.6 Guidelines for Enhancing Security with Your Firewall • Change the default password. • Limit who can telnet into your router. • Don't enable any local service (such as SNMP or NTP) that you don't use. Any enabled service could present a potential security risk. A determined hacker might be able to find creative ways to misuse the enabled services to access the firewall or the network. • For local services that are enabled, protect against misuse.
Chapter 8 Firewalls • Always shred confidential information, particularly about your computer, before throwing it away. Some hackers dig through the trash of companies or individuals for information that might help them in an attack. 8.7 Packet Filtering vs. Firewall Below are some comparisons between the ZyXEL Device’s filtering and firewall functions. 8.7.1 Packet Filtering • The router filters packets as they pass through the router’s interface according to the filter rules you designed.
Chapter 8 Firewalls • To selectively block/allow inbound or outbound traffic between inside host/networks and outside host/networks. Remember that filters can not distinguish traffic originating from an inside host or an outside host by IP address. • The firewall performs better than filtering if you need to check many rules. • Use the firewall if you need routine e-mail reports about your system or need to be alerted when attacks occur.
CHAPTER 9 Firewall Configuration This chapter shows you how to enable and configure the ZyXEL Device firewall. 9.1 Access Methods The web configurator is, by far, the most comprehensive firewall configuration tool your ZyXEL Device has to offer. For this reason, it is recommended that you configure your firewall using the web configurator. CLI (Command Line Interpreter) commands provide limited configuration options and are only recommended for advanced users. 9.
Chapter 9 Firewall Configuration " If you configure firewall rules without a good understanding of how they work, you might inadvertently introduce security risks to the firewall and to the protected network. Make sure you test your rules after you configure them. For example, you may create rules to: • Block certain types of traffic, such as IRC (Internet Relay Chat), from the LAN to the Internet.
Chapter 9 Firewall Configuration 3 Is it possible to modify the rule to be more specific? For example, if IRC is blocked for all users, will a rule that blocks just certain users be more effective? 4 Does a rule that allows Internet users access to resources on the LAN create a security vulnerability? For example, if FTP ports (TCP 20, 21) are allowed from the Internet to the LAN, Internet users may be able to connect to computers with running FTP servers.
Chapter 9 Firewall Configuration 9.4.1 LAN to WAN Rules The default rule for LAN to WAN traffic is that all users on the LAN are allowed nonrestricted access to the WAN. When you configure a LAN to WAN rule, you in essence want to limit some or all users from accessing certain services on the WAN. WAN to LAN Rules The default rule for WAN to LAN traffic blocks all incoming connections (WAN to LAN).
Chapter 9 Firewall Configuration Figure 58 “Triangle Route” Problem 9.5.2 Solving the “Triangle Route” Problem You can have the ZyXEL Device allow triangle route sessions. However this can allow traffic from the WAN to go directly to a LAN computer without passing through the ZyXEL Device and its firewall protection. Another way to solve the triangle route problem is to use IP alias. IP alias allows you to partition your network into logical sections over the same Ethernet interface.

Chapter 9 Firewall Configuration Figure 69 Firewall Example: Rules: MyService 9.9 Anti-Probing If an outside user attempts to probe an unsupported port on your ZyXEL Device, an ICMP response packet is automatically returned. This allows the outside user to know the ZyXEL Device exists. The ZyXEL Device supports anti-probing, which prevents the ICMP response packet from being sent. This keeps outsiders from discovering your ZyXEL Device when unsupported ports are probed.

Chapter 9 Firewall Configuration 9.10.2 Half-Open Sessions An unusually high number of half-open sessions (either an absolute number or measured as the arrival rate) could indicate that a Denial of Service attack is occurring. For TCP, "halfopen" means that the session has not reached the established state-the TCP three-way handshake has not yet been completed (see Figure 53 on page 120). For UDP, "half-open" means that the firewall has detected no return traffic.

CHAPTER 11 IPSec VPN This chapter explains how to set up and maintain IPSec VPNs in the ZyXEL Device. 11.1 IPSec VPN Overview A virtual private network (VPN) provides secure communications between sites without the expense of leased site-to-site lines. A secure VPN is a combination of tunneling, encryption, authentication, access control and auditing. It is used to transport traffic over the Internet or any insecure network that uses TCP/IP for communication.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN Figure 76 VPN: IKE SA and IPSec SA In this example, a computer in network A is exchanging data with a computer in network B. Inside networks A and B, the data is transmitted the same way data is normally transmitted in the networks. Between routers X and Y, the data is protected by the tunneling, encryption, and authentication of the IPSec SA. The IPSec SA is established securely using the IKE SA that routers X and Y established first.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN 11.1.1.2 IKE SA Proposal The IKE SA proposal is used to identify the encryption algorithm, authentication algorithm, and Diffie-Hellman (DH) key group that the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router use in the IKE SA. In main mode, this is done in steps 1 and 2, as illustrated below. Figure 77 IKE SA: Main Negotiation Mode, Steps 1 - 2: IKE SA Proposal The ZyXEL Device sends one or more proposals to the remote IPSec router. (In some devices, you can set up only one proposal.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN 11.1.1.4 Authentication Before the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router establish an IKE SA, they have to verify each other’s identity. This process is based on pre-shared keys and router identities. In main mode, the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router authenticate each other in steps 5 and 6, as illustrated below. Their identities are encrypted using the encryption algorithm and encryption key the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router selected in previous steps.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN Table 49 VPN Example: Matching ID Type and Content ZYXEL DEVICE REMOTE IPSEC ROUTER Peer ID type: IP Peer ID type: E-mail Peer ID content: 1.1.1.2 Peer ID content: tomasz@yourcompany.com In the following example, the authentication fails, so they cannot establish an IKE SA. Table 50 VPN Example: Mismatching ID Type and Content ZYXEL DEVICE REMOTE IPSEC ROUTER Local ID type: E-mail Local ID type: IP Local ID content: tom@yourcompany.com Local ID content: 1.1.1.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN Aggressive mode does not provide as much security as main mode because the identity of the ZyXEL Device and the identity of the remote IPSec router are not encrypted. It is usually used when the address of the initiator is not known by the responder and both parties want to use pre-shared keys for authentication (for example, telecommuters). 11.1.2.2 VPN, NAT and NAT Traversal In the following example, there is another router (A) between router X and router Y.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN " An IPSec SA stays connected even if the underlying IKE SA is not available anymore. This section introduces the key components of IPSec SA. 11.1.3.1 Local Network and Remote Network In IPSec SA terminology, the local network, the one(s) connected to the ZyXEL Device, may be called the local policy. Similarly, the remote network, the one(s) connected to the remote IPSec router, may be called the remote policy. 11.1.3.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN • Inside header: The inside IP header contains the IP address of the computers behind the ZyXEL Device or remote IPSec router. In transport mode, the IP header is the original IP header, and the encapsulation depends on the active protocol. If the active protocol is AH, the ZyXEL Device includes part of the IP header when it encapsulates the packet.
Chapter 11 IPSec VPN In IPSec SAs using manual keys, the ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router do not establish an IKE SA. They only establish an IPSec SA. As a result, an IPSec SA using manual keys has some characteristics of IKE SAs and some characteristics of IPSec SAs. There are also some differences between IPSec SAs using manual keys and other types of SAs. 11.1.4.1.

CHAPTER 13 Bandwidth Management This chapter contains information about configuring bandwidth management, editing rules and viewing the ZyXEL Device’s bandwidth management logs. 13.1 Bandwidth Management Overview ZyXEL’s Bandwidth Management allows you to specify bandwidth management rules based on an application and/or subnet. You can allocate specific amounts of bandwidth capacity (bandwidth budgets) to different bandwidth rules.
Chapter 13 Bandwidth Management Figure 93 Subnet-based Bandwidth Management Example 13.4 Application and Subnet-based Bandwidth Management You could also create bandwidth classes based on a combination of a subnet and an application. The following example table shows bandwidth allocations for application specific traffic from separate LAN subnets.
Chapter 13 Bandwidth Management 13.5.2 Fairness-based Scheduler The ZyXEL Device divides bandwidth equally among bandwidth classes when using the fairness-based scheduler; thus preventing one bandwidth class from using all of the interface’s bandwidth. 13.
Chapter 13 Bandwidth Management The ZyXEL Device divides up the unbudgeted 2048 kbps among the classes that require more bandwidth. If the administration department only uses 1024 kbps of the budgeted 2048 kbps, the ZyXEL Device also divides the remaining 1024 kbps among the classes that require more bandwidth. Therefore, the ZyXEL Device divides a total of 3072 kbps of unbudgeted and unused bandwidth among the classes that require more bandwidth. 13.6.2.
Chapter 13 Bandwidth Management 13.6.3 Over Allotment of Bandwidth You can set the bandwidth management speed for an interface higher than the interface’s actual transmission speed. Higher priority traffic gets to use up to its allocated bandwidth, even if it takes up all of the interface’s available bandwidth. This could stop lower priority traffic from being sent. The following is an example.
Chapter 13 Bandwidth Management Figure 94 Bandwidth MGMT > Summary The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 67 Bandwidth MGMT > Summary LABEL DESCRIPTION Interface These read-only labels represent the physical interfaces.

CHAPTER 30 Filter Configuration This chapter shows you how to create and apply filters. 30.1 Introduction to Filters Your ZyXEL Device uses filters to decide whether to allow passage of a data packet and/or to make a call. There are two types of filter applications: data filtering and call filtering. Filters are subdivided into device and protocol filters, which are discussed later. Data filtering screens the data to determine if the packet should be allowed to pass.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration 30.1.1 The Filter Structure of the ZyXEL Device A filter set consists of one or more filter rules. Usually, you would group related rules, for example all the rules for NetBIOS, into a single set and give it a descriptive name. The ZyXEL Device allows you to configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72 filter rules in the system. You cannot mix device filter rules and protocol filter rules within the same set.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration Figure 187 Filter Rule Process You can apply up to four filter sets to a particular port to block multiple types of packets. With each filter set having up to six rules, you can have a maximum of 24 rules active for a single port. 30.2 Configuring a Filter Set The ZyXEL Device includes filtering for NetBIOS over TCP/IP packets by default. To configure another filter set, follow the procedure below.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration 1 Enter 21 in the main menu to open menu 21. Figure 188 Menu 21: Filter and Firewall Setup Menu 21 - Filter and Firewall Setup 1. Filter Setup 2. Firewall Setup 2 Enter 1 to bring up the following menu. Figure 189 Menu 21.1: Filter Set Configuration Menu 21.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 114 Abbreviations Used in the Filter Rules Summary Menu FIELD DESCRIPTION # This is an index number. A Active: “Y” means the rule is active. “N” means the rule is inactive. Type The type of filter rule: “GEN” for Generic, “IP” for TCP/IP. Filter Rules These parameters are displayed here. M More. “Y” means there are more rules to check which form a rule chain with the present rule.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration 30.2.2 Configuring a TCP/IP Filter Rule This section shows you how to configure a TCP/IP filter rule. TCP/IP rules allow you to base the rule on the fields in the IP and the upper layer protocol, for example, UDP and TCP headers. To configure TCP/IP rules, select TCP/IP Filter Rule from the Filter Type field and press [ENTER] to open Menu 21.1.1.1 - TCP/IP Filter Rule, as shown next. Figure 191 Menu 21.1.1.1: TCP/IP Filter Rule Menu 21.1.1.

This field is ignored if it is 0.0.0.0. IP Mask Enter the IP mask to apply to the Source: IP Addr. Port # Enter the source port of the packets that you wish to filter. The range of this field is 0 to 65535. This field is ignored if it is 0.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration Figure 192 Executing an IP Filter 30.2.3 Configuring a Generic Filter Rule This section shows you how to configure a generic filter rule. The purpose of generic rules is to allow you to filter non-IP packets. For IP, it is generally easier to use the IP rules directly.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration For generic rules, the ZyXEL Device treats a packet as a byte stream as opposed to an IP or IPX packet. You specify the portion of the packet to check with the Offset (from 0) and the Length fields, both in bytes. The ZyXEL Device applies the Mask (bit-wise ANDing) to the data portion before comparing the result against the Value to determine a match. The Mask and Value are specified in hexadecimal numbers.

Chapter 30 Filter Configuration 5 Press [ENTER] to confirm after you enter the set numbers and to leave menu 11.1.4. 30.4 Filter Types and NAT There are two classes of filter rules, Generic Filter (Device) rules and protocol filter (TCP/ IP) rules. Generic filter rules act on the raw data from/to LAN and WAN. Protocol filter rules act on the IP packets. Generic and TCP/IP filter rules are discussed in more detail in the next section.
Chapter 30 Filter Configuration 30.6.1 Applying LAN Filters LAN traffic filter sets may be useful to block certain packets, reduce traffic and prevent security breaches. Go to menu 3.1 (shown next) and enter the number(s) of the filter set(s) that you want to apply as appropriate. You can choose up to four filter sets (from twelve) by entering their numbers separated by commas, for example 3, 4, 6, 11.
