3.13 How to Authenticate Clients via User Management Before using the function of User Management, please make sure User-Based has been selected as the Mode in the User Management>>General Setup page. With User Management authentication function, before a valid username and password have been correctly supplied, a particular client will not be allowed to access Internet through the router. There are three ways for authentication: Web, Telnet and Alert Tool.
Authentication via Web If a LAN client who hasn’t passed the authentication opens an external web site in his browser, he will be redirected to the router’s Web authentication interface first. Then, the client is trying to access http://www.draytek.com and but brought to the Vigor router. Since this is an SSL connection, some web browsers will display warning messages. With Microsoft Internet Explorer, you may get the following warning message. Please press Continue to this website (not recommended).
With Crome browser, you may get the following warning. Click Proceed anyway. After that, the web authentication window will appear. Input the user name and the password for your account (defined in User Management) and click Login.
If the authentication is successful, the client will be redirected to the original web site that he tried to access. In this example, it is http://www.draytek.com . Furthermore, you will get a popped up window as the following. Then you can access the Internet. Note, if you block the web browser to pop up any window, you will not see such window. If the authentication is failed, you will get the error message, The username or password you entered is incorrect. Please login again.
In above description, you access an external web site to trigger the authentication. You may also directly access the router’s Web UI for authentication. Both HTTP and HTTPS are supported, for example http://192.168.1.1 or https://192.168.1.1 . Replace 192.168.1.1 with your router’s real IP address, and add the port number if the default management port has been modified. If the authentication is successful, you will get the Welcome Message that is set in the User Management >> General Setup page.
Don’t setup a user profile in User Management and a VPN Remote Dial-in user profile with the same Username. Otherwise, you may get unexpected result. It is because the VPN Remote Dial-in User profiles can be extended to the User profiles in User Management for authentication.
Authentication via Telnet The LAN clients can also authenticate their accounts via telnet. 1. Telnet to the router’s LAN IP address and input the account name for the authentication: 2. Type the password for authentication and press Enter. The message User login successful will be displayed with the expired time (if configured). Note: Here expired time is “Unlimited” means the Time Quota function is not enabled for this account. After login, this account will not be expired until it is logout. 3.
4. If the Time Quota is set with “0” minute, you will get the following message which means this account has no time quota. If the Time Quota is enabled and time is not 0 minute, You will get the following message. The expired time is shown after you login. After you run out the available time, you can’t use this account any more until the administrator manually adds additional time for you.
Authentication via VigorPro Alert Notice Tool Authentication via Web or Telnet is convenient for users; however, it has some limitations. The most advantage with VigorPro Alert Notice Tool to operate the authentication is the ability to do auto login. If the timeout value set on the router for the user account has been reached, the router will stop the client computer from accessing the Internet until it does an authentication again.
3.14 How to use DNS Filter The DNS Filter monitors DNS queries on UDP port 53 and will pass the DNS query information to the WCF (web content filter) to help with categorizing HTTPS URL's. Note: For DNS filter must use the WCF service profile to filter the packets, therefore WCF license must be activated first. Otherwise, DNS filter does not have any effect on packets. In the following example, we will block search engine (e.g., www.google.com) and social networking website (e.g., https://facebook.com). 1.
3. Click OK to save the configuration. 4. A message box will appear. It's a message which reminds that the priority of URL Content Filter is higher than Web Content Filter. Just press OK button to continue. 5. Open CSM>>DNS Filter. Enable the DNS filter; choose Block as the Syslog; choose WCF-1 Default. 6. Click OK to save the DNS filter configuration. Now, all settings about blocking search engine and social website are complete. Please try to access into www.google.
From the Syslog, we can find out “google” is blocked.

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 – LAN5). In addition, different subnets can link for each other by configuring Inter-LAN Routing. At present, LAN1 setting is fixed with NAT mode only. LAN2 – LAN5 can be operated under NAT or Route mode. IP Routed Subnet can be operated under Route mode.
Advanced DHCP packets can be processed by adding option number and data information when such function is enabled. Enable/Disable – Enable/Disable the function of DHCP Option. Each DHCP option is composed by an option number with data. For example, Option number:100 Data: abcd When such function is enabled, the specified values for DHCP option will be seen in DHCP reply packets. Option Number – Type a number for such function. DataType – Choose the type (ASCII or Hex) for the data to be stored.
Details Page for LAN1 – Ethernet TCP/IP and DHCP Setup There are two configuration pages for LAN1, Ethernet TCP/IP and DHCP Setup (based on IPv4) and IPv6 Setup. Click the tab for each type and refer to the following explanations for detailed information. Available settings are explained as follows: Item Description Network Configuration For NAT Usage, IP Address - Type in private IP address for connecting to a local private network (Default: 192.168.1.1).
server is located the relay agent should redirect the DHCP request to. DHCP Server IP Address – It is available when Enable Relay Agent is checked. Set the IP address of the DHCP server you are going to use so the Relay Agent can help to forward the DHCP request to the DHCP server. Start IP Address - Enter a value of the IP address pool for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 1st IP address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting IP address must be 192.168.1.
If both the Primary IP and Secondary IP Address fields are left empty, the router will assign its own IP address to local users as a DNS proxy server and maintain a DNS cache. If the IP address of a domain name is already in the DNS cache, the router will resolve the domain name immediately. Otherwise, the router forwards the DNS query packet to the external DNS server by establishing a WAN (e.g. DSL/Cable) connection. When you finish the configuration, please click OK to save and exit this page.
It provides 2 daemons for LAN side IPv6 address configuration. One is Router Advertisement Server (stateless) and the other is DHCPv6 Server (Stateful).

3. When you finish the configuration, please click OK to save and exit this page. 4.4 NAT 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.
Below shows the menu items for NAT. 4.4.1 Port Redirection Port Redirection is usually set up for server related service inside the local network (LAN), such as web servers, FTP servers, E-mail servers etc. Most of the case, you need a public IP address for each server and this public IP address/domain name are recognized by all users.
Each item is explained as follows: Item Description Index Display the number of the profile. Service Name Display the description of the specific network service. WAN Interface Display the WAN IP address used by the profile. Protocol Display the transport layer protocol (TCP or UDP). Public Port Display the port number which will be redirected to the specified Private IP and Port of the internal host. Private IP Display the IP address of the internal host providing the service.
Item Description 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.
4.4.2 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.
The security properties of NAT are somewhat bypassed if you set up DMZ host. We suggest you to add additional filter rules or a secondary firewall. Click DMZ Host to open the following page. You can set different DMZ host for each WAN interface. Click the WAN tab to switch into the configuration page for that WAN. Available settings are explained as follows: Item Description Choose Private IP or Active True IP first. Active True IP selection is available for WAN1 only.

When you have selected one private IP from the above dialog, the IP address will be shown on the following screen. Click OK to save the setting. DMZ Host for WAN2~ WAN4 is slightly different with WAN1. Active True IP selection is available for WAN1 only. See the following figure.
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. Available settings are explained as follows: Item Description 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.
4.4.3 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.
Available settings are explained as follows: Item Description 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. WAN IP Specify the WAN IP address that will be used for this entry. This setting is available when WAN IP Alias is configured. Local Computer Enter the private IP address of the local host or click Choose PC to select one.
After finishing all the settings here, please click OK to save the configuration. 4.4.4 Port Triggering Port Triggering is a variation of open ports function. The key difference between "open port" and "port triggering" is: Once the OK button is clicked and the configuration has taken effect, "open port" keeps the ports opened forever. Once the OK button is clicked and the configuration has taken effect, "port triggering" will only attempt to open the ports once the triggering conditions are met.
Comment Display the text which memorizes the application of this rule. Triggering Protocol Display the protocol of the triggering packets. Triggering Port Display the port of the triggering packets. Incoming Protocol Display the protocol for the incoming data of such triggering profile. Incoming Port Display the port for the incoming data of such triggering profile. Status Display if the rule is active or de-active. Click the index number link to open the configuration page.

4.5 Hardware Acceleration Hardware Acceleration is also called PPA in DrayTek for it is based on Protocol Processing Engine (PPE) of Infinion. It can only support 128 sessions for network traffic (IN & OUT) with implementing three kinds of modes - Disable, Auto and Manual. 4.5.1 Setup When the data traffic is heavy and data transmission is getting slowly and slowly, you can configure this page to accelerate the data streaming by hardware itself.
available in Auto Mode, too. But the UDP protocol is only supported in this sub-item. Apply the Class Rule in Quality of Service – Users can apply the information provided by QoS in this sub-item. Note: Please visit our website for referring the detailed configuration of QoS. Specific Hosts – This sub-item provides 5 hosts for adding NAT sessions into the PPA. For the PPA only support s128 sessions, these hosts will share these sessions. Therefore, the performance will be lower than only one host.
4.6 Firewall 4.6.1 Basics for Firewall While the broadband users demand more bandwidth for multimedia, interactive applications, or distance learning, security has been always the most concerned. The firewall of the Vigor router helps to protect your local network against attack from unauthorized outsiders. It also restricts users in the local network from accessing the Internet. Furthermore, it can filter out specific packets that trigger the router to build an unwanted outgoing connection.
Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) Stateful inspection is a firewall architecture that works at the network layer. Unlike legacy static packet filtering, which examines a packet based on the information in its header, stateful inspection builds up a state machine to track each connection traversing all interfaces of the firewall and makes sure they are valid. The stateful firewall of Vigor router not just examine the header information also monitor the state of the connection.
4.6.2 General Setup General Setup allows you to adjust settings of IP Filter and common options. Here you can enable or disable the Call Filter or Data Filter. Under some circumstance, your filter set can be linked to work in a serial manner. So here you assign the Start Filter Set only. Also you can configure the Log Flag settings, Apply IP filter to VPN incoming packets, and Accept incoming fragmented UDP packets. Click Firewall and click General Setup to open the general setup page.
Enable Strict Security Firewall For the sake of security, the router will execute strict security checking for data transmission. Such feature is enabled in default. All the packets, while transmitting through Vigor router, will be filtered by firewall. If the firewall system (e.g., content filter server) does not make any response (pass or block) for these packets, then the router’s firewall will block the packets directly.
Available settings are explained as follows: Item Description Filter Select Pass or Block for the packets that do not match with the filter rules. Sessions Control The number typed here is the total sessions of the packets that do not match the filter rule configured in this page. The default setting is 60000. Quality of Service Choose one of the QoS rules to be applied as firewall rule. For detailed information of setting QoS, please refer to the related section later.
