is blank, it means that all the destination ports will be passed through the WAN interface. 3.2 LAN Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design of network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP. 3.2.1 Basics of LAN What is Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Vigor router will exchange routing information with neighboring routers using the RIP to accomplish IP routing.
Details Page for LAN Click Details Page to open the following page. IP Address Type in private IP address for connecting to a local private network (Default: 192.168.1.1). Subnet Mask Type in an address code that determines the size of the network. (Default: 255.255.255.0/ 24) RIP Protocol Control Disable deactivates the RIP protocol. It will lead to a stoppage of the exchange of routing information between routers.
IP address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting IP address must be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254. IP Pool Counts - Enter the maximum number of PCs that you want the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. The default is 50 and the maximum is 253. Gateway IP Address - Enter a value of the gateway IP address for the DHCP server. The value is usually as same as the 1st IP address of the router, which means the router is the default gateway.
3.3 NAT The most generic function of Vigor router is NAT. It creates a private subnet of your own. As mentioned previously, the router will talk to other public hosts on the Internet by using public IP address and talking to local hosts by using its private IP address. What NAT does is to translate the packets from public IP address to private IP address to forward the right packets to the right host and vice versa.
Usually, the router serves as an NAT (Network Address Translation) router. NAT is a mechanism that one or more private IP addresses can be mapped into a single public one. Public IP address is usually assigned by your ISP, for which you may get charged. Private IP addresses are recognized only among internal hosts.
The port redirection can only apply to incoming traffic. To use this function, please go to NAT page and choose Port Redirection web page. The Port Redirection Table provides 20 port-mapping entries for the internal hosts. Press any number under Index to access into next page for configuring port redirection.
Enable Check this box to enable such port redirection setting. Mode Two options (Single and Range) are provided here for you to choose. To set a range for the specific service, select Range. In Range mode, if the public port (start port and end port) and the starting IP of private IP had been entered, the system will calculate and display the ending IP of private IP automatically. Service Name Enter the description of the specific network service.
3.3.2 DMZ Host As mentioned above, Port Redirection can redirect incoming TCP/UDP or other traffic on particular ports to the specific private IP address/port of host in the LAN. However, other IP protocols, for example Protocols 50 (ESP) and 51 (AH), do not travel on a fixed port. Vigor router provides a facility DMZ Host that maps ALL unsolicited data on any protocol to a single host in the LAN.
If you previously have set up WAN Alias for PPPoE or Static or Dynamic IP mode in WAN2 interface, you will find them in Aux. WAN IP for your selection. Enable Check to enable the DMZ Host function. Private IP Enter the private IP address of the DMZ host, or click Choose PC to select one. Choose PC Click this button and then a window will automatically pop up, as depicted below. The window consists of a list of private IP addresses of all hosts in your LAN network.
3.3.3 Open Ports Open Ports allows you to open a range of ports for the traffic of special applications. Common application of Open Ports includes P2P application (e.g., BT, KaZaA, Gnutella, WinMX, eMule and others), Internet Camera etc. Ensure that you keep the application involved up-to-date to avoid falling victim to any security exploits. Click Open Ports to open the following page: Index Indicate the relative number for the particular entry that you want to offer service in a local host.
Enable Open Ports Check to enable this entry. Comment Make a name for the defined network application/service. WAN Interface Specify the WAN interface that will be used for this entry. Local Computer Enter the private IP address of the local host or click Choose PC to select one. Choose PC Click this button and, subsequently, a window having a list of private IP addresses of local hosts will automatically pop up. Select the appropriate IP address of the local host in the list.
3.4 Applications Below shows the menu items for Applications. 3.4.1 Dynamic DNS The ISP often provides you with a dynamic IP address when you connect to the Internet via your ISP. It means that the public IP address assigned to your router changes each time you access the Internet. The Dynamic DNS feature lets you assign a domain name to a dynamic WAN IP address. It allows the router to update its online WAN IP address mappings on the specified Dynamic DNS server.
3. Active Display if this account is active or inactive. View Log Display DDNS log status. Force Update Force the router updates its information to DDNS server.

When the applications terminate abnormally, these mappings may not be removed. 3.5 Wireless LAN This function is used for “n” models. 3.5.1 Basic Concepts Over recent years, the market for wireless communications has enjoyed tremendous growth. Wireless technology now reaches or is capable of reaching virtually every location on the surface of the earth.
Security Overview Real-time Hardware Encryption: Vigor Router is equipped with a hardware AES encryption engine so it can apply the highest protection to your data without influencing user experience. Complete Security Standard Selection: To ensure the security and privacy of your wireless communication, we provide several prevailing standards on market. WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a legacy method to encrypt each frame transmitted via radio using either a 64-bit or 128-bit key.
Enable Wireless LAN Check the box to enable wireless function. Mode At present, the router can connect to 11g Only, 11n Only (2.4 GHz), Mixed (11b+11g), Mixed (11g+11n), Mixed (11a+11n 5 GHz), and Mixed (11b+11g+11n) stations simultaneously. Simply choose Mixed (11b+11g+11n) mode. SSID Means the identification of the wireless LAN. SSID can be any text numbers or various special characters. The default SSID is "DrayTek". We suggest you to change it.
Packet-OVERDRIVE This feature can enhance the performance in data transmission about 40%* more (by checking Tx Burst). It is active only when both sides of Access Point and Station (in wireless client) invoke this function at the same time. That is, the wireless client must support this feature and invoke the function, too. Note: Vigor N61 wireless adapter supports this function.
packet. Most modern wireless network uses short preamble with 56 bit sync field instead of long preamble with 128 bit sync field. However, some original 11b wireless network devices only support long preamble. Check it to use Long Preamble if needed to communicate with this kind of devices. 3.5.3 Security By clicking the Security Settings, a new web page will appear so that you could configure the settings of WEP and WPA. The default security mode is Mixed (WPA+WPA2)/PSK.
WPA2/PSK-Accepts only WPA2 clients and the encryption key should be entered in PSK. Mixed (WPA+ WPA2)/PSK - Accepts WPA and WPA2 clients simultaneously and the encryption key should be entered in PSK. WPA The WPA encrypts each frame transmitted from the radio using the key, which either PSK (Pre-Shared Key) entered manually in this field below or automatically negotiated via 802.1x authentication.
3.5.4 Access Control For additional security of wireless access, the Access Control facility allows you to restrict the network access right by controlling the wireless LAN MAC address of client.

4.2 LAN Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design of network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP. 4.2.1 Basics of LAN The most generic function of Vigor router is NAT. It creates a private subnet of your own. As mentioned previously, the router will talk to other public hosts on the Internet by using public IP address and talking to local hosts by using its private IP address.
What is Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Vigor router will exchange routing information with neighboring routers using the RIP to accomplish IP routing. This allows users to change the information of the router such as IP address and the routers will automatically inform for each other. What is Static Route When you have several subnets in your LAN, sometimes a more effective and quicker way for connection is the Static routes function rather than other method.
4.2.2 General Setup This page provides you the general settings for LAN. Click LAN to open the LAN settings page and choose General Setup. There are four subnets provided by the router which allow users to divide groups into different subnets (LAN1 – LAN4).
