EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.2 LAN & VLAN This section describes the configuration of LAN and VLAN. VLAN is an optional feature, and its presence depends on the gateway model. 2.2.1 Ethernet LAN The Local Area Network (LAN) can be used to share data or files among computers attached to a network.
Page 46
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway addresses are allowed in this subnet. However, one of them is occupied by the LAN IP address of this gateway, so there are a maximum of 253 clients allowed in LAN network. Value Range: 255.0.0.0 (/8) ~ 255.255.255.252 (/30).
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.2.2 VLAN VLAN (Virtual LAN) is a logical network under a certain switch or router device to group client hosts with a specific VLAN ID. This gateway supports both Port-based VLAN and Tag-based VLAN. These functions allow you to divide local network into different “virtual LANs”.
Page 48
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway and DHCP-2 server equipped. Finally, the administrator also configures the Data Center segment with VLAN ID 1. The VLAN group includes Port-1 with NAT mode to WAN interface as shown in following diagram. The above diiagram shows a general case for a gateway with 3 Ethernet LAN ports. If the device has only one Ethernet LAN port, there will be only one VLAN group for the device.
Page 49
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway The administrator designs 3 network segments, Lab, Meeting Rooms, and Office. In a Secure VPN Gateway, the administrator can configure the Office segment with VLAN ID 12. The VLAN group is equipped with DHCP- 3 server to construct a 192.168.12.x subnet. He also configures the Meeting Rooms segment with VLAN ID 11.
Page 50
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway VLAN Groups Access Control The administrator can specify the Internet access permission for all VLAN groups. He can also configure which VLAN groups are allowed to communicate with each other. VLAN Group Internet Access The administrator can specify members of one VLAN group to be able to access Internet or not.

EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.4 Port Forwarding Network address translation (NAT) is a methodology of remapping one IP address space into another by modifying network address information in Internet Protocol (IP) datagram packet headers while they are in transit across a traffic routing device. The technique was originally used for ease of rerouting traffic in IP networks without renumbering every host.
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.4.1 Configuration NAT Loopback This feature allows you to access the WAN global IP address from your inside NAT local network. It is useful when you run a server inside your network. For example, if you set a mail server at LAN side, your local devices can access this mail server through gateway’s global IP address when NAT loopback feature is enabled.
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.4.2 Virtual Server & Virtual Computer There are some important Port Forwarding functions implemented within the gateway, including "Virtual Server", "NAT loopback" and "Virtual Computer". These allow personnel to access servers behind the gateway from outside the network. Those servers can be set up by using "Virtual Server"...
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway Virtual Server & NAT Loopback "Virtual Server" allows you to access servers with the global IP address or FQDN of the gateway as if they are servers existing in the Internet. But in fact, these servers are located in the Intranet and are physically behind the gateway.

EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.4.3 DMZ & Pass Through A DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host that is exposed to the Internet but still within the protection of a firewall by gateway device. This function allows a computer to execute 2-way communication for Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications.
Page 85
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway VPN Pass through Scenario Since VPN traffic is different from that of TCP or UDP connection, it will be blocked by NAT gateway. To support the pass through function for the VPN connections initiating from VPN clients behind NAT gateway, the gateway must implement some kind of VPN pass through function for such application.
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.5 Routing If you have more than one router and subnet, you will need to enable routing in order to allow packets to find a proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other. Routing is the process of selecting best paths in a network.
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway 2.5.1 Static Routing "Static Routing" lets you define the routing paths for some dedicated hosts/servers or subnets to be stored in the routing table of the gateway. The gateway routes incoming packets to different peer gateways based on the routing table.
EW50 Industrial LTE Cellular Gateway Static Routing Setting Go to Basic Network > Routing > Static Routing Tab. There are three configuration windows for the static routing feature, including "Configuration", "Static Routing Rule List" and "Static Routing Rule Configuration".
