  • Page 26 This product’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping. A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP.
  • Page 27 3.5.2 Special AP Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the DMZ host instead.

    3.6.1 Packet Filter Packet Filter enables you to control what packets are allowed to pass the router. Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, Inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies: 1.
  • Page 31 For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). Add prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999. No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. Packet Filter can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control.
  • Page 32 Example 2: (1.2.3.100-1.2.3.119) They can do everything except read net news (port 119) and transfer files via FTP (port 21) Others are all allowed. After Inbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button. Outbound Filter: To enable Outbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Outbound Packet Filter field.
  • Page 33 Example 1: First filter : All the nodes can connect to the internet except 192.168.0.123 which is very limited to special functions. It is not allowed to send mail (port 25), receive mail (port 110), and browse Internet (port 80); port 53 (DNS) is necessary to resolve the domain name. Second filter (192.168.0.20-) has no access to the internet (everything is blocked)
  • Page 34 Example 2: First filter : 192.168.0.200 is not allowed to transfer files via FTP (port 21) Second filter : 192.168.0.219 can do everything except read net news (port 119) Others are allowed After Outbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button.

    3.6.2 Domain Filter Domain Filter let you prevent users under this device from accessing specific URLs. Domain Filter Enable Check if you want to enable Domain Filter. Log DNS Query Check if you want to log the action when someone accesses the specific URLs. Privilege IP Addresses Range Setting a group of hosts and privilege these hosts to access network without restriction.
  • Page 36 Example: In this example: 1. URL include “www.msn.com” will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file. 2. URL include “www.sina.com” will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file. 3. URL include “www.google.com” will be blocked, but the action will not be record in log-file. IP address X.X.X.1~ X.X.X.20 can access network without restriction.

  • Page 37: Url Blocking

    3.6.3 URL Blocking URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites. The major difference between “Domain filter” and “URL Blocking” is Domain filter require user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites by simply a keyword.
  • Page 38 In this example: 1.URL include “msn” will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file. 2.URL include “sina” will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file 3.URL include “cnnsi” will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file. 4.

    3.6.5 VPN setting VPN Settings are settings that are used to create virtual private tunnels to remote VPN gateways. The tunnel technology supports data confidentiality, data origin authentication and data integrity of network information by utilizing encapsulation protocols, encryption algorithms, and hashing algorithms. VPN enable item VPN protects network information from ill network inspectors.
  • Page 42 IPSec VPN supports two kinds of key-obtained methods: manual key and automatic key exchange. Manual key approach indicates that two end VPN gateways setup authenticator and encryption key by system managers manually. However, IKE approach will perform automatic Internet key exchange. System managers of both end gateways only need set the same pre-shared key.

  • Page 49 3.6.5.4 VPN Settings – PPTP Server PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) is a tunneling protocol for connecting clients and servers. PPTP can be used to create a Virtual Private Network (VPN) between the remote user and the corporate LAN. User can build up to five PPTP tunnels for PPTP clients. Each tunnel can accept more than one client. User is required to configure Virtual IP of PPTP Server, Authentication Protocol, PPTP Tunnel Name and User Account, Password.

  • Page 60: Routing Table

    3.7.5 Routing Table Routing Tables allow you to determine which physical interface address to use for outgoing IP data grams. If you have more than one routers and subnets, you will need to enable routing table to allow packets to find proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other. Routing Table settings are settings used to setup the functions of static and dynamic routing.
