IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is a version of the Internet Protocol (IP) intended to succeed IPv4, which is the protocol currently used to direct almost all Internet traffic. IPv6 also implements additional features not present in IPv4. It simplifies aspects of address assignment (stateless address auto‐configuration), network renumbering and router announcements when changing Internet connectivity providers. This gateway supports various types of IPv6 connection (Static IPv6 / DHCPv6 / PPPoEv6 / 6to4 / 6in4). Please contact your ISP the type of IPv6 is supported before you proceed with IPv6 setup. Static IPv6 Static IPv6 does the same function as static IPv4. The static IPv6 provides manual setting of IPv6 address, IPv6 default gateway address, and IPv6 DNS.

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. 3.9.3 Virtual Server & Virtual Computer Virtual server is another name for port forwarding used by some routers. In computer networking, port forwarding or port mapping is an application of network address translation (NAT) that redirects a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall. This technique is most commonly used to make services on a host residing on a protected or masqueraded (internal) network available to hosts on the opposite side of the gateway (external network), by remapping the destination IP address and port number of the communication to an internal host. Port forwarding allows remote computers (a computers on the Internet) to connect to a specific computer or service within a private local‐area network (LAN). So you can deploy some servers in your Intranet with the firewall protection by your gateway. This device’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this device gateway are invisible to the outside ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. Virtual Server List "Virtual Server" feature allows you to define some servers with the global IP address or FQDN of the gateway as if they are servers existed in the Internet. But in fact, these servers are located in the Intranet and are physically behind the gateway. The gateway serves the service requests by port forwarding the requests to the LAN servers and transfers the replies from LAN servers to the requester on the WAN side. For example, if you set an E‐mail server on the LAN side with IP address 10.0.75.101, a remote user can access the gateway for E‐mail service if you defined a virtual E‐mail server for the gateway by using the real E‐mail server on the LAN side, as shown in scenario in following diagram. Scenario Application Timing Set up some application servers in the Intranet of deployed network for services and are protected by the gateway firewall. In a way that the gateway appears to be the physical server to the remote users, while the real server is, in reality, operating and providing service at the LAN side behind the gateway.

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. Scenario Operation Procedure In above diagram, the Gateway is the gateway of Network‐A and the subnet of its Intranet is 10.0.75.0/24. The gateway has the IP address of 10.0.75.2 for LAN interface and 118.18.81.33 for WAN interface. It serves as a NAT router. A LAN host with private IP address 10.0.75.102 has an embedded FTP file server in it. The host is expected to be visible to the outside world with global IP address 118.18.81.44, but also be protected by the gateway firewall. Configure a virtual computer in the gateway for the mapping between the global IP address 118.18.81.44 and the local IP address 10.0.75.102. The gateway will take care of all accessing to the FTP file server by server's global IP address, and it acts as a media between the LAN host and the outside world by using its "Virtual Computer" feature. So remote users can request for file services from the FTP file server, even it is existed in a LAN host. The Virtual Server setting allows user to redirect a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall.

So, the function allows a computer to execute 2‐way communication for Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. In some cases when a specific application is blocked by NAT mechanism, you can indicate that LAN computer as a DMZ host to solve this problem. In "DMZ" page, there is only one configuration window for "DMZ" feature. The window lets you activate the DMZ function and specify the IP address in the Intranet to be DMZ host so that the host under DMZ function can run applications freely that would, otherwise, blocked by NAT mechanism of the gateway with DMZ feature disabled. That is, the incoming packets issued by an active application in the Internet are usually blocked outside of the NAT gateway. But the DMZ host can receive those packets and make replies. That is, it is reactive to outside world. In the meantime, it is also protected by the gateway firewall. Configuration This feature allows you to ask the gateway pass through all normal packets to the DMZ host ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. Scenario Application Timing When the administrator of the gateway wants to set up some service daemons in a host that is in the Intranet to allow remote users request for services from the host actively, even the host is behind a NAT gateway. But remote users think the gateway provides those services, so users use the global IP of the gateway to request their services. Apply the DMZ feature in the NAT gateway to meet the application scenario. In addition, please also be noted that the client host is still protected by the gateway firewall. Scenario Description The DMZ host is behind a NAT gateway and receives all normal and active packets from the Internet. Remote user can access the DMZ host by using the IP address of the gateway, and the gateway will skip the NAT checking on the DMZ host. DMZ host is still protected by the gateway firewall. Parameter Setup Example Following table lists the parameter configuration as an example for the gateway in above diagram with DMZ enabling.

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. 3.b Routing If you have more than one router and subnet, you will need to enable routing function to allow packets to find proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other. Routing is the process of selecting best paths in a network. It is performed for many kinds of networks, like electronic data networks (such as the Internet), by using packet switching technology. The routing process usually directs forwarding on the basis of routing tables which maintain a record of the routes to various network destinations. Thus, constructing routing tables, which are held in the router's memory, is very important for efficient routing. Most routing algorithms use only one network path at a time. The routing tables record your pre‐defined routing paths for some specific destination subnets. It is static routing. However, if the contents of routing tables record the obtained routing paths from neighbor routers by using some protocols, such as RIP, OSPF and BGP. It is dynamic routing. These both routing approaches will be illustrated one after one. 3.b.1 Static Routing "Static Routing" function lets you define the routing paths for some dedicated hosts/servers or subnets to store in the routing table of the gateway. The gateway system will route incoming packets to different peer gateways based on the routing table. You define the static routing information in gateway system. In "Static Routing" page, there are three configuration windows for static routing feature. They are the "Configuration" window, "Static Routing Rule List" window and "Static Routing Rule Configuration" window. The "Configuration" window lets you activate the global static routing ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. 3.b.3 Dynamic Routing Dynamic Routing, also called adaptive routing, describes the capability of a system, through which routes are characterized by their destination, to alter the path that the route takes through the system in response to a change in network conditions. The adaptation is intended to allow as many routes as possible to remain valid (that is, have destinations that can be reached) in response to the change. This gateway supports dynamic routing protocol, such as RIPv1/RIPv2 (Routing Information Protocol), OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) for you to establish routing table automatically. The feature of dynamic routing will be very useful when there are lots of subnets in your network. Generally speaking, RIP is suitable for small network. OSPF is more suitable for medium network. BGP is more used for big network infrastructure. In the "Dynamic Routing" page, there are seven configuration windows for dynamic routing feature. They are the "RIP Configuration" window, "OSPF Configuration" window, "OSPF Area List", "OSPF Area Configuration", "BGP Configuration", "BGP Neighbor List" and "BGP Neighbor Configuration" window. RIP, OSPF and BGP protocols can be configured individually. The "RIP Configuration" window lets you choose which version of RIP protocol to be activated or disable it. The "OSPF Configuration" window can let you activate the OSPF dynamic routing protocol and specify its backbone subnet. Moreover, the "OSPF Area List" window lists all defined areas in the OSPF network. Using the "Add" button to add and create one new OSPF area and the "Edit" button to modify an existed one. Creation and modification can be done in the "OSPF Area Configuration" window. However, the "BGP Configuration" window can let you activate the BGP dynamic routing protocol and specify its self ID. The "BGP Neighbor List" window lists all defined neighbors in the BGP network. By using the "Add" button to add and create one new BGP neighbor and the "Edit" button to modify an existed one. You can do them in the "BGP Neighbor Configuration" window. 145 ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. These three dynamic routing protocols are described as follows. RIP Scenario The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the oldest distance‐vector routing protocols, which employs the hop count as a routing metric. RIP prevents routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a destination. The maximum 146 ...
M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. number of hops allowed for RIP is 15. This hop limit, however, also limits the size of networks that RIP can support. A hop count of 16 is considered an infinite distance, in other words the route is considered unreachable. RIP implements the split horizon, route poisoning and holddown mechanisms to prevent incorrect routing information from being propagated. RIP Configuration In the "RIP Configuration" window, you can just choose the version of RIP protocol to activate the dynamic routing feature, or disable it. OSPF Scenario Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a routing protocol for Internet Protocol (IP) networks. It uses a link state routing algorithm and falls into the group of interior routing protocols, operating within a single autonomous system (AS). OSPF is perhaps the most widely used interior gateway protocol (IGP) in large enterprise networks. IS‐IS, another link‐state dynamic routing protocol, is more common in large service provider networks. The most widely used exterior gateway protocol is the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the principal routing protocol between autonomous systems on the Internet. OSPF is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) for routing Internet Protocol (IP) packets solely within a single routing domain, such as an autonomous system. It gathers link state information from available routers and constructs a topology map of the network. The topology is presented as a routing table to the Internet Layer which routes datagrams based solely on the destination IP address found in IP packets. OSPF detects changes in the topology, such as link failures, and converges on a new loop‐free routing structure within seconds. It computes the shortest path tree for each route using a method based on Dijkstra's algorithm, a shortest path first algorithm. The OSPF routing policies for constructing a route table are governed by link cost factors (external metrics) associated with each routing interface. Cost factors may be the distance of a router (round‐trip time), data throughput of a link, or link availability and reliability, expressed as simple unitless numbers. This provides a dynamic process of traffic load balancing between routes of equal cost. An OSPF network may be structured, or subdivided, into routing areas to simplify administration and optimize traffic and resource utilization. Areas are identified by 32‐bit numbers, expressed either simply in decimal, or often in octet‐based dot‐decimal notation, familiar from IPv4 address notation. OSPF Configuration In the "OSPF Configuration" window, you can just check the "Enable" box to activate the OSPF ...

This device supports most popular third‐ party DDNS service provider, including DynDNS.org(Dynamic), DynDNS.org(Custom), No‐IP.com, TZO.com, and DHS.org. Before you enable Dynamic DNS, you need to register an account with one of these Dynamic DNS servers that we list in Provider field. Once the IP address of a WAN interface in the gateway has changed, the dynamic DNS agent in the gateway will inform the DDNS server with the new IP address. The server automatically re‐maps your domain name with the changed IP address. So, other hosts in the Internet world will be able to link to your gateway by using your domain name regardless of the changing global IP adress.

The gateway has the IP address of 10.0.75.2 for LAN interface and gets a dynamic IP 118.18.81.33 for WAN‐1 interface. It serves as a NAT router. Configure the required parameters for DDNS function by referring to above setup example. When the gateway has booted up and has gotten a dynamic IP address for the WAN interface, the DDNS agent in the gateway tries to request the DDNS server with the mapping between the domain name and the obtained WAN IP address of the gateway. The DDNS server broadcasts the mapping to other DNS servers for DNS hosting service in the Internet world. So, other hosts in the Internet can link to the gateway by using the domain name. Once the gateway has dynamically changed its WAN IP address from ISP, the DDNS agent tries again to request the DDNS server with the re‐mapping between the domain name and the new WAN IP address of the gateway. The DDNS server broadcasts again the new mapping to other DNS servers for DNS hosting service in the Internet world. Finally, other hosts in the Internet can still link to the gateway by using the domain name, even the WAN IP address of the gateway has changed. DNS & DDNS Setting ...

So the gateway can control what packets are allowed or blocked to pass through it. A packet filter rule should indicate from and to which interface the packet enters and leaves the gateway, the source and destination IP addresses, and destination service port type and port number. Lastly, the time schedule to which the rule will be active. In "Packet Filters" page, there are three configuration windows for packet filtering function. They are the "Configuration" window, "Packet Filter Rule List" window, and "Packet Filter Rule Configuration" window. The "Configuration" window can let you activate the packet filtering function and specify to black listing or to white listing Inbound or Outbound packets defined in the "Packet Filter Rule List" entry. In addition, log alerting can be enabled through an “Enable” checkbox to log events. Second, the "Packet Filter Rule List" window lists all your defined packet filtering rule entry.

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. 5.3.3 Rule‐based QoS This gateway provides lots of flexible rules for you to set QoS policies. Basically, you need to know three parts of information before you create your own policies. First, “who” needs to be managed? Second, “what” kind of service needs to be managed? The last part is “how” you prioritize. Once you have this information, you can continue to learn functions in this section in more detail. In "Rule‐based QoS" page, there are three configuration windows for QoS & BWM function. They are the "Configuration" window, "QoS Rule List" window, and "QoS Rule Configuration" window. The "Configuration" window can let you activate the Rule‐based QoS function. In addition, you can also enable the "Flexible Bandwidth Management" (FBM) feature for better utilization of system bandwidth by FBM algorithm. Second, the "QoS Rule List" window lists all your defined QoS rules. At last, the "QoS Rule Configuration" window can let you define one QoS rule. Configuration Check the "Enable" box to activate the "Rule‐based QoS" function. Also enable the FBM feature when needed. When FBM is enabled, system adjusts the bandwidth distribution dynamically based on current bandwidth usage situation to reach maximum system network performance while transparent to all users. Certainly, the bandwidth subscription profiles of all current users are considered in system's automatic adjusting algorithm. QoS Rule List The "QoS Rule List" shows the parameter settings of all QoS rule entry. There also be one "Add" 212 ...

The "Edit" button at the end of each QoS rule can let you modify the rule. Please see following sub‐section. Refer to the following sub‐sections for more reference. QoS Rule Configuration When you want to add a new QoS rule or edit one already existed, the "QoS Rule Configuration" window shows up for you to configure. The parameters in a rule include the applied WAN interfaces, the dedicated host group based on MAC address or IP address, the dedicated kind of service packets, the system resource to be distributed, the corresponding control function for your specified resource, the packet flow direction, the sharing method for the control function, the integrated time schedule rule and the rule activation. Refer to 6.2.1 Scheduling Settings section in this user manual on how to configure a time schedule. Following diagram illustrates how to organize an QoS rule. In diagram above, a QoS rule is organized by the premise part and the conclusion part. In the premise part, you must specify the WAN interface, host group, service type in the packets, packet flow direction to be watched and the sharing method of group control or individual control. However, in the conclusion part, you must make sure which kind of system resource to distribute and the control function based on the chosen system resource for the rule. The Rule‐based QoS has following features. 213 ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. Flexible QoS Rule Definition Multiple Group Categories Specify the group category in a QoS rule for the target objects that rule to be applied on. Group Category can bases on VLAN ID, MAC Address, IP Address, Host Name or Packet Length. Category depends on product model. Differentiated Services Specify the service type in a QoS rule for the target packets that rule to be applied on. Differentiated services can be base on 802.1p, DSCP, TOS, VLAN ID, User‐defined Services and Well‐known Services. Well‐known services include FTP(21), SSH(TCP:22), Telnet(23), SMTP(25), DNS(53), TFTP(UDP:69), HTTP(TCP:80), POP3(110), Auth(113), SFTP(TCP:115), SNMP&Traps(UDP:161‐162), LDAP(TCP:389), HTTPS(TCP:443), SMTPs(TCP:465), ISAKMP(500), RTSP(TCP:554), POP3s(TCP:995), NetMeeting(1720), L2TP(UDP:1701) and PPTP(TCP:1723). Available Control Functions There are 4 resources can be applied in a QoS rule: bandwidth, connection sessions, priority queues and DiffServ Code Point (DSCP). Control function that acts on target objects for specific services of packet flow is based on these resources. For bandwidth resource, control functions include guaranteeing bandwidth and limiting bandwidth. For priority queue resource, control function is setting priority. For DSCP resource, control function is DSCP marking. The last resource is Connection Sessions; the related control function is limiting connection sessions. Individual / Group Control One QoS rule can be applied to individual member or whole group in the target group. This feature depends on model. Outbound / Inbound Control One QoS rule can be applied to the outbound or inbound direction of packet flow, even them both. This feature depends on model. Two QoS rule examples are listed as below. 214 ...

When the client hosts behind the security gateway want to make a secure communication with the ones behind another security gateway in headquarters or another branch office, both security gateways need to establish a VPN tunnel first. Both Intranets of security gateways have their own subnet and the "Site to Site" tunnel scenario is used. "Site" means a subnet of client hosts. Scenario Description Both Initiator and Responder of IPSec tunnel must have a “Static IP” or a “FQDN” for "Site to Site" scenario. Any peer gateway can be worked as an Initiator or a Responder of the IPSec VPN tunnel. Two phases (IKE and IPSec) to negotiate for establishing an IPSec VPN tunnel with pre‐ shared key and optional X‐Auth account / password.

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. Dynamic VPN Tunnel Scenario Business Security Gateway can ignore IP information of clients when using Dynamic VPN, so it is suitable for users to build VPN tunnels with Business Security Gateway from a remote mobile site. Remote peer is a site will be indicated in the negotiation packets, including what remote subnet is. It must be noted that the remote peer has to initiate the tunnel establishing process first in this application scenario. Scenario Application Timing If the security gateway in headquarters wants to allow any traveling employees to securely access the enterprise operation systems to access office resources from outside, the Dynamic VPN connection can be setup up to meet the requirement. These mobile employees are carrying with their notebooks or security supporting gateways outsides, and use these devices to connect to the Internet and try to access the enterprise resources at headquarters. But the IP address that the devices get is dynamic, not fixed. When the security gateway of headquarters need to check the IP address of a remote device during establishing a secure VPN tunnel for data communication, mobile devices will fail since they have not fixed IP address. So, to activate the "Dynamic VPN" function on the headquarters gateway is a fast approach for the secure data communication between mobile devices and the headquarters gateway. You can follow the deployment steps as below. Scenario Description 235 ...

That means, the security gateway in headquarters supports "Dynamic VPN" function and then you, as a mobile user, can access its Intranet resources from remote side with a secured link; even your device is not on a fixed IP address. "Full Tunnel"‐enabled Site to Site Tunnel Scenario In "Site to Site" tunnel scenario, the client hosts of remote site can securely access the enterprise resources in the Intranet of headquarters gateway via an established VPN tunnel, as described above. But the regular Internet accessing at remote site still go through the WAN interface of remote gateway, not the VPN tunnel. If you want all packets to be transferred from the Network‐B at branch office via this VPN tunnel, including the enterprise resource accessing and the Internet accessing, you can refer to following scenario example. When Full Tunnel function of remote Business Security Gateway is enabled, all data traffic from remote clients behind remote Business Security Gateway will go over the VPN tunnel. That is, if a user is operating at a PC that is in the Intranet of remote Business Security Gateway, all application packets and private data packets from the PC will be transmitted securely in the VPN tunnel to access the resources behind HQ Business Security Gateway, including surfing the Internet. As a result, every time the user surfs the web for shopping or searching data on Internet, checking personal emails, or ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. 5.7 Redundancy In engineering, redundancy is the duplication of critical components or functions of a system with the intention of increasing reliability of the system, usually in the form of a backup or fail‐safe. In an IP networking, the access gateway is the critical part of the networking system. Redundant gateway plays the backup one of the master gateway and it will take over the data transmitting job once it finds the master gateway failed. AMIT security gateway can serve as the redundant gateway of core router in the enterprise by using the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP). 5.7.1 VRRP The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a computer networking protocol providing device redundancy. It allows a backup router or switch to automatically take over if the primary (master) router or switch fails. This increases the availability and reliability of routing paths via automatic default gateway selections on an IP network. The protocol achieves this by creation of virtual routers, which are an abstract representation of multiple routers, i.e. master and backup routers, acting as a group. The default gateway of a participating host is assigned to the virtual router instead of a physical router. If the physical router that is routing packets on behalf of the virtual router fails, another physical router is selected to automatically replace it. The physical router that is forwarding packets at any given time is called the master router. In "VRRP" page, there is only one configuration window for Redundancy function. A group of ...

Fill same values of virtual server ID and IP for these gateways, and each gateway owns its own priority as the sequence in the backup list. They construct a VRRP redundant gateway group. Following diagram illustrates the group example with two member gateways. Scenario Application Timing When the enterprise gateway needs a reliable connection to the Internet, administrator can setup a group of VRRP redundant gateways as the enterprise entry gateway. Each member gateway connects to different ISP for a redundant connection to the Internet. So, the enterprise gateway is reliable even the master connection is failed. Scenario Description When the master gateway is disabled of its Internet connection, the backup gateway whose priority is the highest among the ones with alive Internet connection will take over the data communication duty and serves as the master. Once the backup gateway is recovered from terminated Internet connection and its priority is higher than the one of the master gateway, the data communication duty will return to it. 309 ...

Except the inquiry time, there are no activities between the ACS server and the gateways until the next inquiry cycle. But if the ACS server has new jobs that are expected to do by the gateways urgently, it will ask these gateways by using connection request related information for immediate connection for inquiring jobs and executing. Scenario Application Timing When the enterprise data center wants to use an ACS server to manage remote gateways geographically distributed elsewhere in the world, the gateways in all branch offices must have an embedded TR‐069 agent to communicate with the ACS server. So that the ACS server can configure, FW upgrade and monitor these gateways and their corresponding Intranets.

SNMP Management Scenario Scenario Application Timing There are two application scenarios of SNMP Network Management Systems (NMS). Local NMS is in the Intranet and manage all devices that support SNMP protocol in the Intranet. Another one is the Remote NMS to manage some devices whose WAN interfaces are connected together by using a switch or a router with UDP forwarding. If you want to manage some devices and they all have supported SNMP protocol, use either one application scenario, especially the management of devices in the Intranet. In managing devices in the Internet, the TR‐069 is the better solution. Please refer to last sub‐section.

It is a common communication protocol of automatically configuring port forwarding. Applications using peer‐to‐peer networks, multiplayer gaming, and remote assistance programs need a way to communicate through home and business gateways. Without IGD one has to manually configure the gateway to allow traffic through, a process which is error prone and time consuming. This device supports the UPnP Internet Gateway Device (IGD) feature, and by default, it is enabled. In "UPnP" page, there is only one configuration window for the "UPnP" function available to you for function activation. UPnP Configuration Check the "Enable" box to activate the UPnP function. 332 ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. UPnP Add Port Mapping Scenario Scenario Application Timing When one client host in the Intranet wants to run peer‐to‐peer applications, like multiplayer gaming, the NAT gateway needs the UPnP function to automatically setup or remove port mapping rules in the gateway. Scenario Description Usually, the active port service attempt to access the gateway from the Internet will be ignored by the gateway for security. Normal NAT mechanism has the connection tracking feature to direct the response packets from the Internet back to the source end of request packets in the Intranet. Once one application in the Intranet host needs an additional service port to be activated at the WAN interface of the gateway, it will ask the gateway to do that by using UPnP protocol. Then the Internet server can use the service port to contact the application for data communication. Parameter Setup Example 333 ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. Following table lists the parameter configuration as an example for the NAT Gateway in above diagram. Use default value for those parameters that are not mentioned in the table. [UPnP]‐[Configuration] Configuration Path ■ Enable UPnP Scenario Operation Procedure In above diagram, the "NAT Gateway" is the gateway of Network‐A and the subnet of its Intranet is 10.0.75.0/24. It has the IP address of 10.0.75.2 for LAN interface and 118.18.81.33 for WAN‐1 interface. There is one gaming station in the Intranet and a game server in the Internet. A gaming application is executed and data is communicated between the gaming station and server. The gaming application needs more service ports to be activated in the gateway, so that the gaming server can send data to the station actively via those service ports. At first stage, the gaming server sends an active accessing for service port 1000 to the NAT Gateway, the gateway ignores it since the service port 1000 is deactivated at current stage. When the gaming has not be executed yet, the NAT mechanism in the gateway has its connection tracking feature to direct the response packets from the Internet back to the source end of request packets in the Intranet. Once the gaming application in the Intranet host is executed and it needs an additional service port, like 1300, to be activated at the WAN interface of the gateway, it will ask the gateway to do that by using UPnP protocol. Finally, the gaming server can use the service port to actively contact the application in the gaming station for data communication. UPnP provides a set of networking protocols for networked devices to discover each other's presence and establish functional network services. Go to Advanced Network > System Management > UPnP ...

M2M Cellular Gateway Index skipping is used to reserve slots for new function insertion, when required. 5.b Certificate In cryptography, a public key certificate (also known as a digital certificate or identity certificate) is an electronic document used to prove ownership of a public key. The certificate includes information about the key, information about its owner's identity, and the digital signature of an entity that has verified the certificate's contents are genuine. If the signature is valid, and the person examining the certificate trusts the signer, then they know they can use that key to communicate with its owner . In a typical public‐key infrastructure (PKI) scheme, the signer is a certificate authority (CA), usually a company such as VeriSign which charges customers to issue certificates for them. In a web of trust scheme, the signer is either the key's owner (a self‐signed certificate) or other users ("endorsements") whom the person examining the certificate might know and trust. The device also plays as a CA role. Certificates are an important component of Transport Layer Security (TLS, sometimes called by its older name SSL), where they prevent an attacker from impersonating a secure website or other server. They are also used in other important applications, such as email encryption and code signing. Here, it can be used in IPSec tunneling for user authentication. 5.b.1 Configuration The configuration setting allows user to create Root Certificate Authority (CA) certificate and configure to set enable of SCEP.
