• Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method. IAD-200W can test your ADSL and Internet connection to determine the connection method used by your ISP. • Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. IAD-200W supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.
• WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported. WEP encrypts any data before transmission, providing protection against snoopers. • WPA-PSK support. providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later standard than WEP, and provides both easier configuration and greater security than WEP.

Chapter 3 Setup This Chapter provides Setup details of the IAD-200 / IAD-200W. Overview This chapter describes the setup procedure for: • Internet Access • LAN configuration • Wireless setup • Assigning a Password to protect the configuration data. PCs on your local LAN may also require configuration. For details, see Chapter 4 - PC Con- figuration.
Configuration Program The IAD-200 / IAD-200W contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and configure it, using your Web Browser. Your Browser must support JavaScript. The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers: • Netscape 7.1 or later.

Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Server) This free service is very useful when combined with the Virtual Server feature. It allows Internet users to connect to your Virtual Servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address. This also solves the problem of having a dynamic IP address. With a dynamic IP address, your IP address may change whenever you connect, which makes it difficult to connect to you.

Firewall Rules The Firewall Rules screen allows you to define "Firewall Rules" which can allow or prevent certain traffic. "Traffic" means incoming connection attempts, not packets. By default: • All Outgoing traffic is permitted. • All Incoming traffic is denied. Because of this default behavior, any Outgoing rules will generally Block traffic, and Incom- ing rules will generally Allow traffic.

Virtual Servers This feature, sometimes called Port Forwarding, allows you to make Servers on your LAN accessible to Internet users. Normally, Internet users would not be able to access a server on your LAN because: • Your Server does not have a valid external IP Address. •...
• To make it easier for Internet users to connect to your Servers, you can use the "DDNS" feature. This allows Internet users to connect to your Servers with a URL, rather than an IP address. This technology works even if your ISP allocates dynamic IP addresses (IP address is allocated upon connection, so it may change each time you connect).
Page 72
Note: From the Internet, ALL Virtual Servers have the IP Address allocated by your ISP.
VoIP To use the VoIP feature requires the following: • Standard Phone A standard analogue Phone must be connected to the Phone socket. • VoIP (SIP Server) Account Generally, you will need a SIP Server account from a VoIP service provider. The account details should include the SIP Register address, SIP Proxy address, SIP register port, SIP Proxy port, username, password, and telephone number.
Page 74
VoIP Settings Local Service SIP Local Port This port is used for peer-to-peer (direct) connections to another device, when no SIP server is used. Normally, this should be left at the default value. Any other devices you wish to connect to must use the same port number. SIP - Line 1 Enable Line1 Check this if you wish to connect to a SIP Server.

This PSTN prefix means that any number beginning with this prefix will be diverted to PSTN (the prefix itself is deleted, then the remainder of the number is dialed via PSTN).
Chapter 6 Advanced Administration This Chapter explains the settings available via the "Administration" section of the menu. Overview Normally, it is not necessary to use these screens, or change any settings. These screens and settings are provided to deal with non-standard situations, or to provide additional options for advanced users.
PC Database The PC Database is used whenever you need to select a PC (e.g. for the "DMZ" PC). • It eliminates the need to enter IP addresses. • Also, you do not need to use fixed IP addresses on your LAN. However, if you do use a fixed IP address on some devices on your LAN, you should enter details of each such device into the PC database, using the PC Database screen.

IP Address Select the appropriate option: • Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: "Ob- tain an IP address automatically"). The IAD-200 / IAD-200W will allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP address could change, but normally won't.
Config File This feature allows you to download the current settings from the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, and save them to a file on your PC. You can restore a previously-downloaded configuration file to the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, by uploading it to the IAD-200 / IAD-200W. This screen also allows you to set the IAD-200 / IAD-200W back to its factory default con- figuration.
Logs The Logs record various types of activity on the IAD-200 / IAD-200W. This data is useful for troubleshooting, but enabling all logs will generate a large amount of data and adversely affect performance. Since only a limited amount of log data can be stored in the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, log data can also be E-mailed to your PC.
Page 85
Buttons There are three (3) buttons • • • Logs Use these checkboxes to determine which events are included in Include (Checkboxes) the log. Checking all options will increase the size of the log, so it is good practice to disable any events which are not really re- quired.
E-mail This screen allows you to E-mail Logs and Alerts. A sample screen is shown below. Data - E-mail Screen E-Mail Notification Check this box to enable this feature. If enabled, the E-mail address Turn E-mail Notification on information (below) must be provided. Enter the E-mail address the Log is to be sent to.

Password If you have enabled "My SMTP Mail Server requires authentication" above, enter the password required to login to your SMTP Server. E-mail Alerts Send E-mail alerts You can choose to have alerts E-mailed to you, by checking the immediately desired checkboxes.
Diagnostics This screen allows you to perform a "Ping" or a "DNS lookup". These activities can be useful in solving network problems. An example Network Diagnostics screen is shown below. Data - Network Diagnostics Screen Ping Ping this Enter the IP address you wish to ping. The IP address can be on your IP Address LAN, or on the Internet.
Remote Administration If enabled, this feature allows you to manage the IAD-200 / IAD-200W via the Internet. Figure 62: Remote Administration Screen Data - Remote Administration Screen Remote Administration Enable Remote Check to allow administration/management via the Internet. (To connect, see below). Management If Disabled, this device will ignore Administration connection attempts from the Internet.

Appendix B About Wireless LANs This Appendix provides some background information about using Wireless LANs (IAD-200W only). Modes Wireless LANs can work in either of two (2) modes: • Ad-hoc • Infrastructure Ad-hoc Mode Ad-hoc mode does not require an Access Point or a wired (Ethernet) LAN. Wireless Sta- tions (e.g.
Channels The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication. • Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channels are available.
Wireless LAN Configuration To allow Wireless Stations to use the Access Point, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point must use the same settings, as follows: On client Wireless Stations, the mode must be set to "Infrastructure". Mode (The Access Point is always in "Infrastructure" mode.) SSID (ESSID) Wireless Stations should use the same SSID (ESSID) as the Access Point they wish to connect to.
