    Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Introducing the BiPAC 7202 Series Thank you for purchasing the BiPAC 7202 Series ADSL2+ Router by Billion. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that combines an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet network switch to provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.

Second, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. To ensure that games and other Internet applications run properly, you can open specific ports for outside users to access internal services on your network.

    4.3.4 Firewall Firewall and Access Control Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet.

    4.3.4.1 Packet Filter Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specified internal/external users (IP address) from Internet access, or you can disable specific service requests (Port number) to /from Internet. This configuration program allows you to set up to 6 different filter rules for different users based on their IP addresses or their network Port number.
  • Page 57 Application: User can choose they want. Outgoing Incoming: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for incoming packets. Active: Choose “Yes” to enable the rule, or choose “No” to disable the rule. Packet Type: Specify the packet type (TCP, UDP, ICMP or any) that the rule applies to. Select TCP if you wish to search for the connection-based application service on the remote server using the port number.
  • Page 58: Mac Address Filter

    Schedule time: User can setup the time to use the packet filter. If the DHCP server option is enabled, you must be very careful in assigning IP addresses of a filtered private IP range to avoid conflicts because you do not know which PC in the LAN is assigned which IP address.
