SSID In the SSID column, it includes Wifi SSID, WDS, Wifi Security, RADIUS and WPS settings as followings: MAC Filter A Domain Name System (DNS) server translates hostnames or domain names to IP addresses. Most ISPs provide a DNS server for speed and convenience. Since your Service Provider may connect to the Internet with dynamic IP settings, it is likely that the DNS server IP addresses are also provided dynamically.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communication protocol that lets network administrators to manage centrally and automate the assignment of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses in an organization's network. Using the Internet Protocol, each machine that can connect to the Internet needs a unique IP address. When an organization sets up its computer users with a connection to the Internet, an IP address must be assigned to each machine.
qualify or authenticate the request or match it to a previous request. NAT also conserves on the number of global IP addresses that a company needs and lets the company to use a single IP address of its communication in the Internet world.
A wireless wide area network (WWAN), is a form of wireless network. The larger size of a wide area network compared to a local area network requires differences in technology. Wireless networks of all sizes deliver data in the form of telephone calls, web pages, and streaming video.
A static route is one that is manually installed by your network administrator. This is a very efficient way to transfer data from one subnet to another despite the fact that this type of route is manually intensive. Static route is a path in the router that indicates how it will reach a certain subnet by taking a specific path. The opposite of a static route is a dynamic route.
VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Devices on a logical network belong to one group. A device can belong to more than one group. With VLAN, a device cannot directly talk to or hear from devices that are not in the same group. With MTU (Multi-Tenant Unit) applications, VLAN is vital in providing isolation and security among the subscribers.

switch port. Egress and Ingress Rules: Egress rules determine which frames can be transmitted out of a port, based on the Egress List of the VLAN associated with it. Each VLAN has an Egress List that specifies the ports out of which frames can be forwarded, and specifies whether the frames will be transmitted as tagged or untagged frames.

the identification of 4096 (212) VLANs. Of the 4096 possible VIDs, a VID of 0 is used to identify priority frames and value 4095 (FFF) is reserved, so the maximum possible VLAN configurations are 4,094. The Router initially default configures one VLAN, VID=1. A port such as LAN1 to 4, DSL or sniffing can have only one PVID, but can have as many VID as the Router has memory in its VLAN table to store them.
Click Port-Based VLAN to configure the Router. Port-Based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. When using the port-based VLAN, the port is assigned to a specific VLAN independent of the user or system attached to the port.
100M/Full 100M/Half 10M/Full 10M/Half Disable The RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a dynamic routing protocol used in local and wide area networks. It’s a very simple protocol, based on distance-vector routing algorithms. As such it is classified as an IGP (interior gateway protocol).

seconds. It computes the shortest path tree for each route using a method based on Dijkstra's algorithm, a shortest path first algorithm. OSPF detects changes in the topology, such as link failures, and 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.
Hello Hello messages are used as a form of greeting, to allow a router to discover other adjacent routers on its local links and networks. The messages establish relationships between neighboring devices (called adjacencies) and communicate key parameters about how OSPF is to be used in the autonomous system or area. Database Description Database Description messages contain descriptions of the topology of the autonomous system or area.
the internet, users will now be able to connect to your Virtual Servers using your Domain name. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) proxy can be used to implement multicast routing. It works by IGMP frame forwarding. A firewall is a set of related programs that protects the resources of a private network from other networks. It is helpful to users that allow preventing hackers to access its own private data resource accidentally.

In computer networking, MAC Filtering refers to a security access control methodology whereby the 48-bit address (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX) assigned to each network device is used to determine access to the network. MAC addresses are uniquely assigned to each network device, so using MAC filtering on a network permits and denies network access to specific devices through the use of black lists and white lists.
Url Filter has been created to filter web traffic. For user wants to block access to unsuitable websites then this is the right place to be. You can block domains, URL´s or certain phrases with little effort. L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) is a tunneling protocol used to support VPNs. It doesn’t provide any encryption or confidentiality by itself;...
Example: Configuring L2TP LAN-to-LAN VPN Connection The branch office establishes a L2TP VPN tunnel with head office to connect two private networks over the Internet. The routers are installed in the head office and branch office accordingly. Both office LAN networks must in different subnet with LAN to LAN application. Functions of Pre-shared Key, VPN Connection Type and Security Algorithm must be identically set up on both sides.

Internet. There are two types of PPTP VPN supported; Remote Access and LAN-to-LAN. Example: Configuring a Remote Access PPTP VPN Dial-out Connection A company’s office establishes a PPTP VPN connection with a file server located at a separate location. The router is installed in the office, connected to a couple of PCs and Servers.
The IP address 192.168.1.254 will be assigned to the router located in the branch office. Please make sure this IP is not used in the head office LAN. Configuring PPTP VPN in the Branch Office The IP address 69.1.121.33 is the Public IP address of the router located in head office. If you registered the DDNS (please refer to the DDNS section of this manual), you can also use the domain name instead of the IP address to reach the router.

IKE (Interface Key Exchange) is an optional, but widely used, component of IPsec. IKE provides a method of negotiating and generating the keys and IDs required by IPsec. If using IKE, only a single key is required to be provided during configuration. Also, IKE supports using Certificates to authenticate the identity of the remote user or gateway.
You are able to change your router’s Host Name in here. For greater security, change the Administrator Name and password for the router. If you don’t set them, all users on your network can be able to access your router using the default Administrator Name and password is “root”.

You can authorize other four legal users to access the Router via Web, telnet or console. There has CLI (command line) mode for telnet or console mode to setup the Router. We will not discuss CLI (command line) mode in this manual. Legal address pool will setup the legal IP addresses from which authorized person can configure the router.
Time synchronization is an essential element for any business, which relies on the IT system. The reason for this is that these systems all have clock that is the source of timer for their filing or operations. Without time synchronization, these system’s clocks vary and cause the failure of firewall packet filtering schedule processes, compromised security, or virtual server working in wrong schedule.
The router can generate SNMP traps to indicate alarm conditions, and it relies on SNMP community strings to implement SNMP security. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a set of networking protocols that permits networked devices, such as personal computers, printers, Internet gateways, Wi-Fi access points and mobile devices to seamlessly discover each other's presence on the network and establish functional network services for data sharing, communications, and entertainment.
There are quite a few Telnet clients available, many of which are free. For example, the Windows operating systems are shipped with a Telnet client included (found at "c:\windows\telnet.exe"). This Telnet client is simple and functional. For Telnet, you may change the default service port by typing the new port number. If you change the default port number then you will have to let user who wish to use the service know the new port number.
It can re-fresh web pages when you are viewing your dynamic status data pages. You can setup the refresh time from 2 to 30 seconds. The default value is 2 seconds. For Web Browser, you may change the default service port by typing the new port number. If you change the default port number then you will have to let user who wish to use the service know the new port number.
There will display general system information including: Hardware and Software MCSV, software version, firmware version, Host Name, System Time and System up Time. MCSV: MCSV is the Manufacture's Concurrent Software Version. This version is the original factory version and remains even after upgrading the router in the field. This is for internal identification purposes. Software Version: This is the modem’s current firmware version.
The CPU info provides the data of usage for user referenced. It contains the following contents: Load Average Time- it shows the rate for load data in three scale, 1 min, 5mins, 15 mins. Load Memory Information- it shows the status for the memory. User can see the total size, used memory and remaining to use.
This information shows the statics of device operating. Routing tables contain a list of IP address. Each IP address identifies a remote router (or other network gateway) that the local router is configured to recognize. For each IP address, the routing table additionally stores a network mask and other data that specifies the destination IP address ranges that remote device will accept.
Note: 1. Do not power off or restart your device before upgrade finished. 2. Upgrade process takes about 30 seconds, after upgrade finished, device will reboot automatically. This configuration tool has three functions: load Factory Default, Restore Configuration, and Backup Configuration. Click the Retore button to load factory default configuration setting.
Ping test determines whether your router can communicate with another computer or other web sites over the network. Then, if network communication is established, ping tests also determine the connection latency (technical term for delay) between the two device. You can use a ping test to troubleshoot connectivity problems with your home network.
The trace route command traces the network path of Internet routers that packets take as they are forwarded from your router to a destination address. The "length" of the network connection is indicated by the number of Internet routers in the trace route path. Trace routes can be useful to diagnose slow network connections.
PPPoE PPPoE (point-to-point protocol over Ethernet) are authentication and connection protocols used by many service providers for broadband Internet access. These are specifications for connecting multiple computer users on an Ethernet local area network to a remote site through common customer premises equipment, which is the telephone company's term for a modem and similar devices.
