5.3.3 System There are five items within the System section: Time Zone, Firmware Upgrade, Backup/Restore, Restart, User Management and Mail Alert.
5.3.3.1 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 current time from an SNTP server outside your network. Choose your local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router retrieves the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified.
5.3.3.2 Firmware Upgrade Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified. Your router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes. Clicking on Browse allows you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded to your PC.
5.3.3.3 Backup / Restore These functions allow you to save and backup your router’s current settings to a file on your PC, or to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes. It is advisable to backup your router’s settings before making any significant changes to your router’s configuration. Press Backup to select where on your local PC to save the settings file.
5.3.3.4 Restart Router Click Restart with option Current Settings to reboot your router and save the current configuration to device. If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a firmware upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default Settings to reset to factory default settings. 5.3.3.

Enable Ftp Access From WAN: Enable or Disable access FTP Server from WAN. Default setting is set to disable. Enable this function, both WAN and LAN can use FTP server.
5.3.5 Firewall Firewall and Access Control Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet. See the WAN configuration section for more details on NAT.
Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules prevent unauthorized computers or applications accessing your local network from the Internet. Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent, and log malicious attacks. MAC Filter rules: Prevents unauthorized computers accessing the Internet. URL Filter: Blocks PCs on your local network from unwanted websites.
5.3.5.1 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. This configuration program allows you to set up to 6 different filter rules for different users based on their IP addresses or their network Port number.
Direction: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for incoming packets. Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section. Log: Choose “log” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to a packet. Add: Click this button to add a new packet filter rule and the added rule will appear at the bottom table. Edit: Check the Rule No.
5.3.4.2 MAC Filter A MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identifier for each PC on your network’s interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card). Using your router’s MAC Address Filter function, you can configure to block specific machines from accessing your LAN. There are no pre-defined MAC address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your requirements. The format of MAC address could be: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx or xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
5.3.4.3 Intrusion Detection Check Enable if you wish to detect intruders accessing your computer without permission. The router automatically detects and blocks a DoS (Denial of Service) attack if a user enables this function. This kind of attack is not to access confidential data on the network; instead, it aims to disrupt specific equipment or the entire network. If this happens, users will have trouble accessing the network resources.
For SYN Flood, ICMP Echo Storm and ICMP flood, IDS will just warn the user in the Event Log but it will not be able to protect against such attacks.
Src IP: Source IP Src Port: Source Port Dst Port: Destination Port Dst IP: Destination IP 5.3.4.4 Block WAN PING Check Enable if you wish to exclude outside PING requests from reaching this router. 5.3.4.5 URL Filter URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.example.com ) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular websites from their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet your requirements.
“abcde” occurs in the URL. Domains Filtering: Checks the domain name in URLs accessed against your list of domains to block or allow. If it matches, the URL request is sent (Trusted) or dropped (Forbidden). The checking procedure is: 1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection attempt is sent to the remote web server. 2. If not, it is checked with the forbidden list. If present, the connection attempt is dropped. 3.
~ Block Cookies: Blocks Cookies ~ Block Proxy: Blocks Proxy Except IP Address: Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section. Log: Click “Log” if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to the URL Filter.
5.3.5 QoS (Quality of Service) Quality of Service Introduction If you’ve ever found your ‘net’ speed has slowed to a crawl because another family member is using a P2P file sharing program, you’ll understand why the Quality of Service features in the routers is such a breakthrough for home users and office users.
There are two settings to be provided in the Router: ~ LAN to WAN: You want to control the traffic flow from the local network to the outside world (Upstream). You can assign the priority for the application or you can limit the rate your application used. e.g., you have a FTP server inside the local network and you want to have a limited traffic rate controlled by the QoS policy. So, you need to add a policy with LAN to WAN direction setting.
DSCP Mapping Table ADSL2+ Router Standard DSCP Disabled None Best Effort Best Effort (000000) Premium Express Forwarding (101110) Gold service (L) Class 1, Gold (001010) Gold service (M) Class 1, Silver (001100) Gold service (H) Class 1, Bronze (001110) Silver service (L) Class 2, Gold (010010) Silver service (M) Class 2, Silver (010100) Silver service (H) Class 2, Bronze (010110) Bronze service (L) Class 3, Gold (011010) Bronze service (M) Class 3, Silver (011100) Bronze service (H)
have higher priority to acquire the bandwidth. ~ High ~ Normal: The default is normal priority. ~ Low For the sample priority assignment for different policies, it is served in a First-In-First-Out way. Internal IP Address: The IP address values for Local LAN machines you want to control. (For IP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the source IP address. For IP packages from WAN to LAN, it is the destination IP address.) Internal Port: The Application port values for local LAN machines you want to control.

Data Always rate. incoming: limited 20%. Data rate.
Example QoS Setup VoIP application Voice is latency-sensitive application. Most VoIP devices are used SIP protocol and the port number will be assigned by SIP module automatically. Better to use fixed IP address for catching VoIP packets as high priority.
5.3.6 Virtual Server In TCP 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. Some ports have numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can locate them. If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e.
designated as “well-known ports”. The registered ports are numbered from 1024 through 49151. The remaining ports, referred to as dynamic ports, or private ports, are numbered from 49152 through 65535. Examples of well-known and registered port numbers are shown below, for further information, please see IANA’s website at: http://www.iana.
5.3.6.1 Port Mapping Application: Select the service you wish to configure Protocol: Automatic when you choose Application from listbox or select a protocol type which you want. External Port & Internal Port: Enter the public port number & range you wish to configure. Internal IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which requests from the specified port is forwarded. Add: Click to add a new virtual server rule. Click again and the next figure appears. Edit: Check the Rule No.
Since NAT acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from access by outside users, as all incoming connection attempts point to your router unless you specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network. When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”.
5.3.6.2 DMZ DMZ: 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 are checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms, it is then passed to the DMZ host when a packet received does not use a port number in use by any other Virtual Server entries.
5.3.6.3 ALG Controls enable or disable various protocols over application layer. For example, SIP ALG: Enable: When SIP phone need ALG to pass through the NAT. Disable: When SIP phone included NAT-Traversal algorithm. Turn off the SIP ALG. Using port mapping does have security implications, since outside users are able to connect to PCs on your network.
5.3.7 Wake on LAN This feature provides greater flexibility for users to turn on / boot the computer of the network from a remotely site. MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the target computer or you can select the MAC address directly from the Select drop down menu on the right. : You can select the MAC from this list.
5.3.8 Time Schedule The Time Schedule supports up to 16 time slots which helps you to manage your Internet connection. In each time profile, you may schedule specific day(s) i.e. Monday through Sunday to restrict or allowing the usage of the Internet by users or applications. This Time Schedule correlates closely with router’s time, since router does not have a real time clock on board; it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server from the Internet.
5.3.9 Advanced Configuration options within the Advanced section are for users who wish to take advantage of the more advanced features of the router. Users who do not understand the features should not attempt to reconfigure their router, unless advised to do so by support staff. There are seven items within the Advanced section: Static Route, Static ARP, Dynamic DNS, VLAN, Device Management, IGMP, SNMP Access Control, TR-069 client and Remote Access.
5.3.9.1 Static Route Destination: The destination subnet IP address. Netmask: Subnet mask of the destination IP addresses based on above destination. Gateway: The gateway IP address to which packets are forwarded. Interface: Select the interface through which packets are forwarded. Cost: Represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be precise, but it must be between 0 and 65535. 5.3.9.
Edit: Check the Edit radio button to display the parameter of the selected application, then after changing the parameters click the "Edit/Delete" button to apply the changes. Delete: To remove a static ARP entry, check the Delete box of the selected entry then click the "Edit/Delete" button. 5.3.9.3 Dynamic DNS The Dynamic DNS function lets you alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, so if your ISP does not assign you a static IP address you can still use a domain name.
Domain Name, Username and Password: Enter your registered domain name and your username and password for this service. Period: Set the time period between updates, for the Router to exchange information with the DDNS server. In addition to updating periodically as per your settings, the router will perform an update when your dynamic IP address changes. If the period is 0, the router will check the DNS server every 5 min. 5.3.9.
5.3.9.5 Device Management The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router’s security options and device monitoring features. Embedded Web Server: HTTP Port: The port number of the router’s embedded web server (for web-based configuration uses. The default value is the standard HTTP port, 80. You may specify an alternative if, for example, you are running a web server on a PC within your LAN.
Disable: Check to disable the router’s UPnP functionality. Enable: Check to enable the router’s UPnP functionality. UPnP Port: The Default setting is 2800.
