    Firewall The Server Appliance provides a powerful firewall capable of preventing hackers from attacking the gateway or internal network. Many famous DoS attacks can be detected and prevented. Whenever an attack is detected, the system will alert the network manager that an attack has occurred. The network manager can then inspect the log information to find the IP address that sent the packets.
  • Page 6 Personal Web Server The Personal Web Server enables users to host an information type website from their appliance. Create your website and place it on the appliance for the world to see. Use it in combination with our built-in DDNS client and anyone with a broadband connection can have their very own website.

    2 Quick Installation This chapter will give you brief instructions on how to install the product. In section 2.1, we will configure the hardware part of SA step by step. In section 2.2, we will check whether the IP address of your PC is assigned by DHCP. Once we complete the installation of the SA hardware and checked your PC settings, we will use the web-based management to configure the SA to suit your network environment.

  • Page 11: Check Your Pc First

    2.3 Connect to the Web-Based Manager Please follow the steps to connect to the web-based manager: 1. Open a browser on the PC that is DIRECTLY connected to the SA. Type “http://172.16.1.1” in address field. And then press Enter key. 2.

  • Page 14: Web-Based Manager－Basic Settings

    Figure 2.3b 2.4 Web-Based Manager – Basic Settings Start to configure your network environment by clicking the Basic Settings in left menu. The Basic Settings page is shown as Figure 2.4a.
  • Page 15 Figure 2.4a The Basic Settings page contains Network Policy, Internal Network Interface, Domain Name Server, and External Network Interface. We describe these settings below in detail. You must click the apply button after you finish inputting the settings. You will see a rebooting window as Figure 2.4b.
  • Page 16 Internal Network Interface The default settings are: Host Name: “SA” Private IP: “172.16.1.1” Private IP Netmask: “255.255.0.0” According to the default settings, we will assign the LAN to network “172.16.1.x” You can add more detailed configurations later in section 4.1 DHCP Server settings.

  • Page 17: Domain Name Server

    Domain Name Server Most of the time this information is not needed, as your ISP will automatically provide the information. Please ask the DNS IP address from your ISP if one is required. External Network Interface External network interface includes ADSL/PPPoE , DHCP Client and Fixed IP Address settings.
  • Page 18 If you have a fixed IP address from your ISP to access the Internet, please follow the steps below: 1. Select the Fixed IP Address radio button. 2. Enter the Public IP address. 3. Enter the External Gateway. 4. Enter the External Netmask. 5.
  • Page 19 your hardware address that you get from your ISP provider in Hardware Address field to override the original hardware address. However, it does not update the original hardware address stored in EEPROM. If you would not like to override the hardware address, you should set each field of the Hardware Address to zero “00”.
  • Page 20 connect with your ISP and the ISP will assign the Server Appliance an external IP address. Once successfully connected, the Status field should reflect this. If the Status is still the same, check to make sure that the username, password, cables, etc. are all correct. Example 4: ADSL/PPTP Client Setting If your ISP provides a PPTP server, you could set up the PPTP client here.

  • Page 21: Configuration Hierarchy

    3 Configuration Hierarchy This chapter gives you an overview of all the configuration options available. The Server Appliance is a multifunction product. The section3.1 explains the corresponding settings for each function. And in section3.2, we describe the power management in detail. There are eight main categories in configuration menu, Basic settings, Network settings, Firewall settings, VPN settings, System management, System reports, User management and NAS management.

  • Page 22: Overview Of Configuration Menu

    3.1 Overview of Configuration Menu Figure 3.1...

  • Page 23: Network Settings

    4 Network Settings When you select Network Settings in the left menu of the web page, five configuration options appear: DHCP Server, IP Alias, Multiple NAT, Route Settings and DDNS. Please refer to the corresponding section for these configurations. 4.1 DHCP Server In DHCP Server settings, we assign the rage of the virtual IP addresses for the four LAN ports of SA.
  • Page 24 Under DHCP server settings, the SA defaults to assigning IPs 172.16.1.2 through 172.16.1.250...So depending on how many fixed IP devices they have, they can assign their device to an IP of 172.16.1.251 (through 254) as these IPs will not be handed out by the SA. If they have more devices or want a different IP range, then all they need to do is modify the range that the SA hands out so it does not hand out an IP in that range.

  • Page 25: Ip Alias

    To Disable the DHCP Server If you already have a DHCP server on your network, 1. Select Disable radio button 2. Click the apply button. Or you do not have DHCP server on your network, but you would like to assign a static IP address to each device connected to the LAN port of SA.

  • Page 26: Multiple Nat

    Please follow the steps to add another network: 1. Enter “192.168.1.1” in IP Alias 1. 2. Enter “255.255.255.0” in Netmask of IP Alias 1. 3. Click the apply button. Note that the IP Alias 1, 192.168.1.1 is assigned to SA and the network is “192.168.1.x”.

  • Page 27: Route Settings

    packets from always sending on the same IP address and the other IP address to sit idle. Multiple NAT solves this and allows you to increase the bandwidth. Multiple NAT allows you to dispatch your network packets evenly to these IP addresses provided by ISP. 1.

  • Page 28: Ddns

    (Routing Information Protocol). If the router supports RIP, it will automatically exchange routing information with SA and it is not necessary to set a static route. Please refer the steps and figures to set a static route. 1. Select Enable radio button in Routing Setup. 2.
  • Page 29 Internet. DDNS provides a simple, and in most cases free, solution. The Internet uses DNS servers to lookup domain names and translates then into IP addresses. Domain names, such as www.yahoo.com, are just easy to remember aliases for IP addresses. A dynamic DNS service provides a means of updating your IP address so that you listing will be current when your IP address changes.

  • Page 30: Firewall Settings

    3. Enter the User name. The user name you log in DDNS service. 4. Enter the password. The password you log in DDNS service. 5. Enter the Host name. The host name you register in DDNS service. 6. Click the apply button. Every time your public IP changes, the SA will tell the DDNS server what your new IP address is.

  • Page 31: Virtual Server Settings

    5.1 Virtual Server Settings The virtual server service is a way to simulate multiple servers on the intranet. You have several IP addresses within your LAN. These IPs are not visible to the users from the Internet. When servers are installed in the office that need to be seen from the Internet, we establish some forwarding rules to deal with the packet from the Internet users and direct the SA to forward the specific packets to the specific IP address.

  • Page 32: Url Filter Setup

    or enter “0” in each field for none. 6. Click the apply button. 5.2 URL Filter Setup The URL Filter function is used to restrict internal hosts from accessing specific URL locations. You deny any access to the URL location specified in the Site1, Site2 …Site10 fields.

  • Page 33: Ip Filter Setup

    5.3 IP Filter Setup The IP filter function is similar to URL Filter. It provides further restrictions in access permission. URL Filtering only blocks port number 80 (HTTP). In IP filtering, you can assign a group of IP to be restricted. You can block four individual ports or a range of ports in the same time.

  • Page 34: Denial Of Service

    5.4 Denial of Service It is highly recommended that the DoS Protection feature be enabled to prevent attacks on the network. However, if you allow someone to manage the router from outside or are running a web server, e-mail server, or FTP server, you should either disable Detect SYN Flood Attack or increase the TCP flow.

  • Page 38: Pptp Settings

    6.2 PPTP Settings For most companies, the PPTP server creates a secure connection that a remote user can access a host within the company. The remote user has to run a PPTP client and connect to the PPTP server. The PPTP server has to validate the remote user as being in the User List in section 9.1.
