The first VC will automatically statically bind according to pre-defined dynamic binding rules when you add the second VC. It will revert back to dynamic binding if the number of VCs is reduced to one; for example, by deleting previously defined VCs.

    2-22 Administrator’s Handbook Diffserv Options Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4 offers Differentiated Services (Diffserv) enhancements. These enhancements allow your Router to make Quality of Service (QoS) decisions about what path Internet traffic, such as Voice over IP (VoIP), should travel across your network. For example, you may want streaming video conferencing to use high quality, but more restrictive, connections, or, you might want e-mail to use less restrictive, but less reliable, connections.

You may want to configure multiple IP subnets to service more hosts than are possible with your primary subnet. It is not always possible to obtain a larger subnet from your ISP. For example, if you already have a full Class C subnet, your only option is multiple Class C subnets, since it is virtually impossible to justify a Class A or Class B assignment.

    filters to control network communications can greatly improve your network’s security. The Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4’s packet filters are designed to provide security for the Internet connections made to and from your network. You can customize the gateway’s filter sets for a variety of packet filtering applications.
  • Page 295: How Individual Filters Work

    Security 10-21 Filter priority Continuing the customs inspectors analogy, imagine the inspectors lined up to examine a package. If the package matches the first inspector’s criteria, the package is either rejected or passed on to its destination, depending on the first inspector’s particular orders. In this case, the package is never seen by the remaining inspectors.

  • Page 307 Security 10-33 Basic Firewall blocks undesirable traffic originating from the WAN (in most cases, the Internet), but forwards all traffic originating from the LAN. It follows the conservative “that which is not expressly permitted is prohibited” approach: unless an incoming packet expressly matches one of the constituent input filters, it will not be forwarded to the LAN.
  • Page 308 10-34 Administrator’s Handbook Output filter 1: This filter forwards all outgoing traffic to make sure that no outgoing connections from the LAN are blocked. Basic Firewall is suitable for a LAN containing only client hosts that want to access servers on the WAN, but not for a LAN containing servers providing services to clients on the WAN.
  • Page 309: Policy-Based Routing Using Filtersets

    Policy-based Routing using Filtersets Previous software versions routed IP packets only by destination IP address. Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4 now offers the ability to route IP packets using criteria other than the destination IP address.
  • Page 310 10-36 Administrator’s Handbook In previous software versions, a filter would either pass or block the specified traffic. Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4 adds a third option, force routing. You specify a gateway IP address, and each packet matching the filter is routed according to that gateway address, rather than by means of the global routing table.
