    HAPTER NTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of the Barricade Wireless Broadband Router with built-in ADSL Modem (SMC7404WBRA). We are proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for connecting your local area network (LAN) to the Internet. For those who want to surf the Internet in the most secure way, this Router provides a convenient and powerful solution.
  • Page 15: Applications

    NTRODUCTION • NAT also enables multi-user Internet access via a single user account, and virtual server functionality (providing protected access to Internet services such as Web, FTP, e-mail, and Telnet). • VPN pass-through (IPSec-ESP Tunnel mode, L2TP, PPTP). • User-definable application sensing tunnel supports applications requiring multiple connections.
  • Page 16 PPLICATIONS • Virtual Server If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the Barricade to act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote users access various services at your site using a constant IP address. Then, depending on the requested service (or port number), the Barricade can route the request to the appropriate server (at another internal IP address).
  • Page 17 NTRODUCTION • Virtual Private Network (VPN) The Barricade supports three of the most commonly used VPN protocols – PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec. These protocols allow remote users to establish a secure connection to their corporate network. If your service provider supports VPNs, then these protocols can be used to create an authenticated and encrypted tunnel for passing secure data over the Internet (i.e., a traditionally shared data network).
