    ZyXEL Devices of the same type. In either setup, the ZyXEL Device itself can act as a router or as a bridge. As a router, the ZyXEL Device provides features such as firewall, content filtering and bandwidth management. As a bridge, the ZyXEL Device minimizes the configuration changes you have to make in your existing network.
  • Page 42: High-Speed Point-To-Point Connections

    Set up each ZyXEL Device as a router or as a bridge, depending on the desired configuration. If you set up a ZyXEL Device as a router, you can use features such as firewall, content filtering and bandwidth management. If you set up a ZyXEL Device as a bridge, you can minimize the configuration changes you have to make in your existing network.

The connection can use RFC 1483 in bridge mode or ENET ENCAP in router mode, and the ZyXEL Devices must use the same VPI, VCI, multiplexing, and encapsulation method.

    5.1 WAN Overview A WAN (Wide Area Network) is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. 5.1.1 Encapsulation Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The ZyXEL Device supports the following methods. 5.1.1.1 ENET ENCAP The MAC Encapsulated Routing Link Protocol (ENET ENCAP) is only implemented with the IP network protocol.
  • Page 72: Pppoa

    By implementing PPPoE directly on the ZyXEL Device (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the ZyXEL Device does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LANs’ computers will have access.
  • Page 73: Ip Address Assignment

    The ZyXEL Device does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled. The second is that the ZyXEL Device will try to bring up the connection when turned on and whenever the connection is down. A nailed-up connection can be very expensive for obvious reasons.

    "1" and "15"; a number greater than "15" means the link is down. The smaller the number, the lower the "cost". The metric sets the priority for the ZyXEL Device’s routes to the Internet.

    Denials of Service (DoS) attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to the Internet. Their goal is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network so users no longer have access to network resources. The ZyXEL Device is pre-configured to automatically detect and thwart all known DoS attacks.
  • Page 122: Types Of Dos Attacks

    P-793H User’s Guide 8.4.2 Types of DoS Attacks There are four types of DoS attacks: 1 Those that exploit bugs in a TCP/IP implementation. 2 Those that exploit weaknesses in the TCP/IP specification. 3 Brute-force attacks that flood a network with useless data.

There are two types of filter applications: data filtering and call filtering. Filters are subdivided into device and protocol filters, which are discussed later.
  • Page 300: The Filter Structure Of The Zyxel Device

    A filter set consists of one or more filter rules. Usually, you would group related rules, e.g., all the rules for NetBIOS, into a single set and give it a descriptive name. The ZyXEL Device allows you to configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72 filter rules in the system.

    You can choose up to four filter sets (from twelve) by entering their numbers separated by commas, e.g., 3, 4, 6, 11. Input filter sets filter incoming traffic to the ZyXEL Device and output filter sets filter outgoing traffic from the ZyXEL Device.

    P-793H User’s Guide Appendix F IP Addresses and Subnetting This appendix introduces IP addresses, IP address classes and subnet masks. You use subnet masks to subdivide a network into smaller logical networks. Introduction to IP Addresses An IP address has two parts: the network number and the host ID. Routers use the network number to send packets to the correct network, while the host ID identifies a single device on the network.

    P-793H User’s Guide Subnet Masks A subnet mask is used to determine which bits are part of the network number, and which bits are part of the host ID (using a logical AND operation). A subnet mask has 32 bits. If a bit in the subnet mask is a “1” then the corresponding bit in the IP address is part of the network number.
