Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Routing Information Protocol One of the protocols used by a router to build and maintain a picture of the network is the Routing Information Protocol (RIP). Using RIP, routers periodically update one another and check for changes to add to the routing table.
Page 197 Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Class A Network Node Class B Network Node Class C Network Node Figure 11-1: Three Main Address Classes The five address classes are: • Class A Class A addresses can have up to 16,777,214 hosts on a single network. They use an eight-bit network number and a 24-bit node number.
Page 198: Netmask
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 This addressing structure allows IP addresses to uniquely identify each physical network and each node on each physical network. For each unique value of the network portion of the address, the base address of the range (host address of all zeros) is known as the network address and is not usually assigned to a host.
Page 199 Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Subnet addressing allows us to split one IP network address into smaller multiple physical networks known as subnetworks. Some of the node numbers are used as a subnet number instead. A Class B address gives us 16 bits of node numbers translating to 64,000 nodes.
Page 200 Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 The following table lists the additional subnet mask bits in dotted-decimal notation. To use the table, write down the original class netmask and replace the 0 value octets with the dotted-decimal value of the additional subnet bits.
Page 201: Private Ip Addresses
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 NETGEAR strongly recommends that you configure all hosts on a LAN segment to use the same netmask for the following reasons: • So that hosts recognize local IP broadcast packets.
Page 202 Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 The router accomplishes this address sharing by translating the internal LAN IP addresses to a single address that is globally unique on the Internet.

Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Key Size The IEEE 802.11 standard supports two types of WEP encryption: 40-bit and 128-bit. The 64-bit WEP data encryption method allows for a five-character (40-bit) input. Additionally, 24 factory-set bits are added to the forty-bit input to generate a 64-bit encryption key.

Page 241 Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 The primary information conveyed in the Beacon frames is the authentication method and the cipher suite. Possible authentication methods include 802.1X and Pre-shared key. Pre-shared key is an authentication method that uses a statically configured pass phrase on both the stations and the access point.
Page 242: Wpa Authentication: Enterprise-Level User Authentication Via 802.1X/Eap And Radius
WPA supports Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). For environments without a RADIUS infrastructure, WPA supports the use of a pre-shared key. Together, these technologies provide a framework for strong user authentication. Windows XP implements 802.1x natively, and several NETGEAR switch and wireless access point products support 802.1x.

Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 The client sends an EAP-response packet containing the identity to the authentication server. The access point responds by enabling a port for passing only EAP packets from the client to an authentication server located on the wired side of the access point.
Page 245 Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) WPA uses TKIP to provide important data encryption enhancements including a per-packet key mixing function, a message integrity check (MIC) named Michael, an extended initialization vector (IV) with sequencing rules, and a re-keying mechanism.
Page 246: Is Wpa Perfect
Product Support for WPA Starting in August, 2003, NETGEAR, Inc. wireless Wi-Fi certified products will support the WPA standard. NETGEAR, Inc. wireless products that had their Wi-Fi certification approved before August, 2003 will have one year to add WPA so as to maintain their Wi-Fi certification.

Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Microsoft has worked with many wireless vendors to embed the WPA firmware update in the wireless adapter driver. So, to update your Microsoft Windows wireless client, all you have to do is obtain the new WPA-compatible driver and install the driver.
Page 249: Virtual Private Networking
Appendix F Virtual Private Networking There have been many improvements in the Internet, including Quality of Service, network performance, and inexpensive technologies, such as DSL. But one of the most important advances has been in Virtual Private Networking (VPN) Internet Protocol security (IPSec). IPSec is one of the most complete, secure, and commercially available, standards-based protocols developed for transporting data.
Page 250: What Is Ipsec And How Does It Work
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 • Remote Access: Remote access enables telecommuters and mobile workers to access e-mail and business applications. A dial-up connection to an organization’s modem pool is one method of access for remote workers, but is expensive because the organization must pay the associated long distance telephone and service costs.
Page 251: Encapsulating Security Payload (Esp
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 • Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP): Provides confidentiality, authentication, and integrity. • Authentication Header (AH): Provides authentication and integrity. • Internet Key Exchange (IKE): Provides key management and Security Association (SA) management.
Page 252: Authentication Header (Ah
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 The ESP header is inserted into the packet between the IP header and any subsequent packet contents. However, because ESP encrypts the data, the payload is changed. ESP does not encrypt the ESP header, nor does it encrypt the ESP authentication.
Page 253: Mode
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Mode SAs operate using modes. A mode is the method in which the IPSec protocol is applied to the packet. IPSec can be used in tunnel mode or transport mode. Typically, the tunnel mode is used for gateway-to-gateway IPSec tunnel protection, while transport mode is used for host-to-host IPSec tunnel protection.
Page 254: Key Management
This document provides case studies on how to configure secure IPSec VPN tunnels. This document assumes the reader has a working knowledge of NETGEAR management systems. NETGEAR is a member of the VPN Consortium, a group formed to facilitate IPSec VPN vendor interoperability. The VPN Consortium has developed specific scenarios to aid system administrators in the often confusing process of connecting two different vendor implementations of the IPSec standard.
Page 255: Vpn Process Overview
Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 VPN Process Overview Even though IPSec is standards-based, each vendor has its own set of terms and procedures for implementing the standard. Because of these differences, it may be a good idea to review some of the terms and the generic processes for connecting two gateways before diving into the specifics.

This is similar to 802.1x support and requires a RADIUS server in order to implement. The Wi-Fi Alliance will call this, 'WPA-Enterprise.' One variation of WPA is called WPA Pre Shared Key or WPA-PSK for short - this provides an authentication alternative to an expensive RADIUS server.
