  • Page 105: System

    System There are five items within the System section: Time Zone, Firmware Upgrade, Backup/Restore, Restart, User Management, Mail Alert, Syslog and Diagnostics Tools. Time Zone The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the most current time from an SNTP server outside your network.

  • Page 106: Firmware Upgrade

    Firmware Upgrade Your router’s firmware is the software that enables it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software that runs in your router. Thus, by upgrading the newly improved version of the firmware allows you the advantage to use newly integrated features.

  • Page 107: Backup / Restore

    Backup / Restore These functions allow you to save a backup of the current configuration of your router to a defined location on your PC, or to restore a previously saved configuration. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup in hand in case any mistakes occur.

  • Page 108: Restart

    Restart There are 2 options for you to choose from before restarting the your 7800(N) device. You can either choose to restart your device to restore it to the Factory Default Settings or to restart the device with your current settings applied. Restarting your device to Factory Default Setting will be useful especially after you have accidentally changed your settings that may result in undesirable outcome.

  • Page 109: User Management

    User Management In order to prevent unauthorized access to your router configuration interface, it requires all users to login with a username and password. Three user levels are provided here. Each user level there’s a default provided password. You must access the router with the appropriate username and password. Here the corresponding passwords are allowed to change.To change your password, simply enter the old password in the Old Password blank.
  • Page 110 Note: by default the other two users of level Advanced and level Basic, thus user and support, are not available, if you want to use the two accounts, check Valid and set their password. And here username is allowed to change, as follows, usename User in User field can be changed.

  • Page 111: Mail Alert

    Mail Alert Mail alert is designed to keep system administrator or other relevant personnel alerted of any unexpected events that might have occured to the network computers or server for monitoring efficiency. With this alert system, appropriate solutions may be tackled to fix problems that may have arisen so that the server can be properly maintained.

    Firewall Listed are the items under the Firewall section: Packet Filter,Ethernet MAC Filter, Wireless MAC Filter, Intrusion Detection, Block WAN PING URL Filter. Packet Filter Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specific internal / external users (IP address) from Internet access, or disable specific service requests (Port number) to / from the Internet.

  • Page 115: Ethernet Mac Filter

    Direction: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for incoming packets. Time Schedule: A self defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section. Log: Select Enable for this option if you will like to capture the logs for this Packet filter policy. Add: Click this button to add a new packet filter rule and the added rule will appear at the bottom table.

Parameters MAC Address: Enter the ethernet MAC addresses you wish to have the filter rule applies. Time Schedule: A self defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy.

  • Page 117: Intrusion Detection

    Intrusion Detection The router Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is used to detect hacker’s attack and intrusion attempts from the Internet. If the IDS function of the firewall is enabled, inbound packets are filtered and blocked depending on whether they are detected as possible hacker attacks, intrusion attempts or other connections that the router determines to be suspicious.

  • Page 118: Url Filter

    URL Filter URL (Uniform Resource Locator) (e.g. an address in the form of http://www.abcde.com or http:// www.example.com) filter rule allows you to prevent users on your network from accessing specific websites defined by their URL. There are no predefined URL filter rules, therefore you can add filter rules to meet your requirements.

Your new keyword will be added to the filtered keyword listing. Domains Filtering Click the top checkbox to enable this feature.

  • Page 120: Qos - Quality Of Service

    QoS - Quality of Service QoS helps you to control the data upload traffic of each application from LAN (Ethernet and/ or Wireless) to WAN (Internet). It facilitates you the features to control the quality and speed of throughput for each application when the system is running with full upstream load. Application: Assign a name that identifies the new QoS application rule.
  • Page 121 Example 1: Optimize Your Home Network with QoS If you are actively engaged in using P2P and are afraid of slowing down internet access throughput of other users within your network, you can thus use QoS function to set different priorities for the different applications that members of your network will be using to avoid bandwidth traffic from getting overloaded.
  • Page 122 Example 2: Optimize Your Home Network with QoS If you are running a lot of standard applications you can just create a QoS rule that has its port range set from 1 ~ 1024 and its priority set to High. This port range is defined in RFC and so it can be used by all standard applications like FTP, Telnet, HTTPS etc.

  • Page 123: Virtual Server

    Virtual Server Virtual Server allows you to direct incoming traffic from WAN side (identified by Protocol and External port) to the Internal server with private IP address on the LAN side. The Internal port is required only if the external port needs to be converted to a different port number used by the server on the LAN side.

  • Page 124: Port Mapping

    Port Mapping Application: Select the service you wish to configure. Protocol: A protocol is automatically applied when an Application is selected from the listbox or you may select a protocol type which you want.
