APNs varies between different service providers. Most service providers have an internet portal which they use to connect to a DHCP Server, thus giving you access to the internet i.e. some 3G operators use the APN ‘internet’ for their portal. The default value is internet. PDN Type: Select the supported IP version, IPv4, Both IPv4/IPv6 or IPv6 only.
Page 44
LTE PCI Lock: If an advanced user wants to lock to a designated PCI, please set the physical cell ID here. PLMN Selection: PLMN(Public Land Mobile Network) is a network that is established and operated by a mobile service provider. Each operator providing mobile services has its own PLMN identified by PLMN ID( MCC / MNC, digital sequence, no more than 6 digits) which is made up of MCC(Mobile Country Code) and MNC(Mobile Network Code).
A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many computers are attached and is limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building.

link, while hosts generate an interface identifier that uniquely identifies an interface on a subnet. An address is formed by combining the two. When using stateless configuration, you needn’t configure anything on the client. Stateful configuration, for example using DHCPv6 (which resembles its counterpart DHCP in IPv4.) In the stateful auto configuration model, hosts obtain interface addresses and/or configuration information and parameters from a DHCPv6 server.
Loopback Lookback interface is a widely known virtual interface on routers which is highly robust and always up, not like physical interfaces which disconnect every now and then. The lookback interface can have its own IP and subnet mask. It is often used for router management as Telnet management IP and involved in BGP as BGP Update-Source, involved in OSPF as Router ID.
Advanced Setup Advanced Step provides advanced features including Firewall, Routing, Dynamic Routing, NAT, VRRP, Static DNS, Time Schedule and Mail Alert for advanced users.
Firewall Your router includes a firewall for 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. Firewall: To automatically detect and block Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, such as Ping of Death, SYN Flood, Port Scan and Land Attack.
Routing This is static route feature. You are equipped with the capability to control the routing of all the traffic across your network. With each routing rule created, user can specifically assign the destination where the traffic will be routed to. Index: Item number Destination IP Address: IP address of the destination network Subnet Mask: The subnet mask of destination network.
Dynamic Routing OSPF Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a most widely used interior gateway protocil (IGP) for Internet Protocol (IP) networks. It uses a link state routing algorithm and falls into the group of interior routing protocols, operating within a single autonomous system (AS). OSPF allows collections of rotuers to be grouped together.
Page 54
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is a standardized exterior gateway protocol (an uniquely TCP basded inter-Autonomous System routing protocol) designed to allow setting up an inter-domain dynamic routing system that automatically updates routing tables of devices running BGP in case of network topology changes.
The NAT (Network Address Translation) feature transforms a private IP into a public IP, allowing multiple users to access the internet through a single IP account, sharing the single IP address. NAT break the originally envisioned model of IP end-to-end connectivity across the internet so NAT can cause problems where IPSec/ PPTP encryption is applied or some application layer protocols such as SIP phones are located behind a NAT.
Page 56
Note: This feature disables automatically if WAN connection is in BRIDGE mode. The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port number used by any other Virtual Server entries.
Page 57
Virtual Server Note: This feature disables automatically if WAN connection is in BRIDGE mode. The device can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such as Web or FTP services via the public (WAN) IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN network.

Example: How to setup Port Forwarding for port 21 (FTP server) If you have a FTP server in your LAN network and want others to access it through WAN. Step 1: Assign a static IP to your local computer that is hosting the FTP server. Step 2: Login to the Gateway and go to Configuration / Advanced Setup / NAT / Virtual Server.
Static DNS The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical naming system built on a distributed database for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most importantly, it translates domain names meaningful to humans into the numerical identifiers associated with networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these devices worldwide.
Time Schedule The Time Schedule supports up to 16 timeslots which helps you to manage your Internet connection. In each time profile, you may schedule specific day(s) i.e. Monday through Sunday to restrict or allowing the usage of the Internet by users or applications. This Time Schedule correlates closely with router’s time, since router does not have a real time clock on board;...
Mail Alert Mail alert is designed to keep system administrator or other relevant personnel alerted of any unexpected events that might have occurred to the network computers or server for monitoring efficiency. With this alert system, appropriate solutions may be tackled to fix problems that may have arisen so that the server can be properly maintained.
(BiPAC 4700ZU only) A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a private network that interconnects remote (and often geographically separate) networks through primarily public communication infrastructures such as the Internet. VPNs provide security through tunneling protocols and security procedures such as encryption.
IPSec Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) is a protocol suite for securing Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a communication session. IPsec also includes protocols for establishing mutual authentication between agents at the beginning of the session and negotiation of cryptographic keys to be used during the session.
