    IPTV, VOD, or online gaming without consuming bandwidth. High-speed Internet Access The BiPAC 7800NL is compliant with worldwide ADSL standards, and supports download rates of up to 12 / 24Mbps using ADSL2 / 2+, 8Mbps using ADSL and upload rate of up to 1 Mbps. The integrated Annex M standard supports ADSL2 / 2+ for higher uploads by doubling the upload data rate.
  • Page 5 IPv6 supported Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed IPv4. IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. This results from the use of a 128-bit address, whereas IPv4 uses only 32 bits. The new address space thus supports 2128 (about 3.4×1038) addresses.

    LAN - Local Area Network A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system network where many computers are connected. This type of network is area defined and is usually limited to a confined region within a building or just within the same storey of a building. Parameters Group Name: here group refers to the group you set in Interface Grouping section, you can set the parameters for the specific group.
  • Page 76 DHCP Server You can disable or enable the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or enable the router’s DHCP relay functions.

IP Alias This function allows the creation of multiple virtual IP interfaces on this router.
  • Page 78: Ipv6 Autoconfig

    IPv6 Autoconfig The IPv6 address composes of two parts, thus, the prefix and the interface ID. There are two ways to dynamically configure IPv6 address on hosts. One is statefull configuration, for example using DHCPv6 (which resembles its counterpart DHCP in IPv4.) In the stateful autoconfiguration model, hosts obtain interface addresses and/or configuration information and parameters from a DHCPv6 server.
  • Page 79 from DHCPv6 server. Start interface ID: enter the start interface ID. The IPv6 address composed of two parts, thus, the prefix and the interface ID. Interface is like the Host ID compared to IPv4. End interface ID: enter the end interface ID. Note: Interface ID does NOT support ZERO COMPRESSION "::".
  • Page 80 Stateful: two methods can be adopted. With only DHCPv6 enabled With this method, the PCs’ addresses are configured the same as in IPv4, that is addresses are assigned by DHCPv6 server. With both DHCPv6 and Issue Router Advertisement Enabled With this method, the PCs’ addresses are configured the same like above, and the address information in RA packets will be neglected.
  • Page 81: Nat

    NAT (Network Address Translation) feature translates a private IP to a public IP, allowing multiple users to access the Internet through a single IP account, sharing the single IP address. It is a natural firewall for the private network. Virtual Servers In TCP/IP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to.
  • Page 82 The following configuration page will appear to let you configure. Interface: select from the drop-down menu the interface you want the virtual server(s) applies to. Server Name: select the server name from the drop-down menu. Custom Service: it is a kind of service to let users customize the service they want. Enter the user- defined service name here.

    DMZ Host 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 86: Security

    Security Packet Filter Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specified internal/external users (IP address) from Internet access, or you can disable specific service requests (Port number) to /from Internet. The relationship among all filters is “or” operation, which means that the router checks these different filter rules one by one, starting from the first rule.
  • Page 87 to. Only when RAW is selected, then you can type the protocol number (0-254) to identify the protocol that you want the filter applies to. When Any is selected, it means the filter will applies to any protocol. Internal Port: This Port or Port Range defines the ports allowed to be used by the Remote/WAN to connect to the application.
