SpeedStream Router User Guide Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the SpeedStream® Router with SecureRouteTM. Efficient Networks is proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for connecting your computer or local area network (LAN) to the Internet. This manual covers the SpeedStream model series 5100, 5200, 5400 and 5500.
SpeedStream Router User Guide About the SpeedStream Router Your SpeedStream router provides high-speed Internet and corporate network access to homes, networked home offices, and small offices. In addition, if you are working from a branch office, the router provides a fast and effective means of communicating over a remote LAN with the main office. The SpeedStream router can also be used to connect the corporate local area network (LAN) to the Internet over the wide area network (WAN).
SpeedStream Router User Guide Firewall Security The firewall in the SpeedStream router is a stateful packet inspection filter that works at the IP level. The firewall consists of an IP packet filtering mechanism, a Network Address Port Translator (NAPT), and a Network Address Translator (NAT). When the NAPT/NAT feature is enabled, the local (unreachable) IP addressing used in the LAN automatically protects it from access.

SpeedStream Router User Guide Customizing Router Settings This section provides you with the information and procedures to customize various settings on your SpeedStream router. Many of these procedures require a mid- to advanced-level understanding of networking principles. If unsure, contact your Service Provider for assistance. Host The Host Configuration screen allows you to change the host IP address, netmask, default router and host name.
SpeedStream Router User Guide • The range of IP addresses may extend over only one IP subnet. • The maximum size of the address pool that may be managed by the DHCP server is 64. Therefore, the range of addresses must not exceed 64. • The range of IP addresses should not include any IP address maintained internally by your SpeedStream device for other purposes.
SpeedStream Router User Guide or Use WAN: Specifies that the DNS server address received from the WAN-side DHCP server is to be provided to DHCP clients on the LAN. • Domain Name: Specifies the DNS domain name for the DHCP server resident on your SpeedStream device. This value must be entered as an alpha-numeric string. This parameter is optional. • Lease Time: IP addresses are leased from the DHCP server and are valid for a specified period of time, the lease time.
SpeedStream Router User Guide 5. Enter the domain name. This information may be provided by your ISP. 6. Enter the lease time, in minutes, to specify the amount of time that a DHCP lease should be provided the host (requires that you specify a DNS IP address). - or – Select Infinite time to hold the lease until you go back in and change these settings. 7. To apply the data you entered, click Save Settings. A confirmation screen displays.
SpeedStream Router User Guide Time Client An accurate log timestamp is one of the requirements of the ICSA Labs firewall criteria (ver 3.0a). In order to maintain accurate timestamps in each log message, the firewall implements a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client. This allows the system to automatically synchronize its date and time with Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the international time standard. The system date and time are set and corrected automatically via the designated server(s).
SpeedStream Router User Guide 3. In the Netmask box, enter the IP netmask of the destination server. 4. In the Next Hop box, enter the IP address to which the data packets will be forwarded. 5. From the Interface list, select the interface that will forward the data packets. 6. To create the static route from your settings, click Set Route.

SpeedStream Router User Guide Firewall Your SpeedStream router includes a user-configurable firewall that provides various levels of security against outside attacks. This firewall provides only WAN-side protection. The firewall does not provide any LAN-side protection. The firewall also includes an advanced Attack Detection System (ADS) containing various algorithms to detect and identify WAN attacks the moment they start and protect the LAN from such attacks.
SpeedStream Router User Guide To select the firewall security level: 1. On the main menu, click Advanced Setup, then click Firewall, and then click Simple Setup. The Firewall – Simple Setup & Control screen displays. 2. Select the level from the Select Firewall Level list. 3. To accept your selection, click Apply. Firewall Snooze Control The firewall supports a Snooze feature by which , the firewall can be made to temporarily “sleep,” or go into an Off state, for a specified period of time.
SpeedStream Router User Guide This feature was added to the DMZ configuration to assist with the dynamic nature of DHCP. Typically, the DMZ host is selected by entering the host’s IP address on the configuration screen. However, if the host does not have a static IP address and uses DHCP, you will not immediately know what the new IP address is after a reboot or reset. In host name mode, the router will “remember” the MAC address of the selected host.
SpeedStream Router User Guide To disable DMZ: 1. On the Firewall – DMZ Configuration screen, click Disable DMZ. 2. To accept the settings, click Apply. Custom IP Filter Rules You can configure the SpeedStream Router firewall to perform IP filtering and stateful inspection of packets. The firewall supports a rules database to allow sophisticated access tailoring. A network conversation is first authorized by verifying the packet against the current rules database configured within the firewall.
SpeedStream Router User Guide Creating Custom IP Filter Rules You can create a new filter rule based on criteria you enter. Note You must have selected the Custom firewall level from the Firewall – Simple Setup screen. The following instructions reference the step numbers on the Firewall – Custom IP Filter Configuration screen. Step 1: Fill in the following information: 1. In the Rule No. text box, enter an unused rule number.
SpeedStream Router User Guide Step 3: Select a protocol to filter: • In the Select by Name list box, select the protocol name. - or In the Select by Number text box, enter the protocol number. Depending on the protocol you selected in Step 3, select the applicable rule options: • If you selected TCP/UDP in Step 3, go to Step 4a. • If you selected ICMP in Step 3, go to Step 4b. • If you selected any other protocol in Step 3, go to Step 5.
SpeedStream Router User Guide • Packets with spoofed source addresses are commonly sent to smaller hosts, not with the intent of bringing down a particular computer, but rather to take down a large host through a mechanism called Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS). In this situation, when a huge number of computers are used to request services, those services are rendered unavailable because of the traffic load. The ADS generates a log entry for a particular type of attack once per minute.
SpeedStream Router User Guide viruses can turn a host into a remote-controlled “zombie,” although some attacks can simply use a host’s network stack to do the job if it is too trusting. The SpeedStream ADS monitors this behavior. ADS Configuration Options The SpeedStream Attack Detection System filters (i.e., discards) and/or logs the following attack attempts from the WAN: • Same Source and Destination Address (a.k.a.
SpeedStream Router User Guide • Fragmented TCP Packet: As discussed in the Invalid IP Packet Fragment description, packets may be fragmented in transit. While it is entirely valid to fragment a TCP packet, this is rarely done because of a process called “MTU discovery” that occurs when two hosts begin communicating. The rarity of TCP packet fragmentation makes its occurrence suspicious and could indicate a flawed network stack exploit attempt.
SpeedStream Router User Guide A confirmation screen displays. RFC2684 Note This option may not be available on your router configuration. The SpeedStream router supports two basic types of connections, Point-to-Point (PPP) and RFC2684. Typically, RFC2684 connections rely on a server located on the Wide Area Network (WAN) to supply the modem a dynamic IP address and other IP-based configuration parameters for the router’s WAN-side interface.
SpeedStream Router User Guide 3. Enter the IP Address. 4. Enter the IP Netmask. 5. Enter the Default Gateway (optional). 6. Enter the DNS Server (optional). UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) UPnP is an industry standard networking protocol that enables devices to discover and control each other over a residential network. The SpeedStream router implements the UPnP networking forum specified Internet Gateway Device (IGD) protocol version 1.0.
SpeedStream Router User Guide to as "bridge/routing" mode, the router provides typical routing functionality between the WAN side and the LAN side. However, all LAN-side interfaces are "bridged." In the second mode of operation, the router provides only "bridging" functionality. This applies to WANto-LAN connectivity as well as to all LAN-side interfaces. Point-to-Point (PPP) connections are not available under the bridge mode of operation.
SpeedStream Router User Guide • Version 2: Allows RIP version 2 to be transmitted/received on the selected interface. This would be the most common choice. • Versions 1 and 2: Simultaneously supports RIP versions 1 and 2 on the selected interface. • Active Mode: If enabled, the router will receive routing updates on the selected interface and will broadcast regular routing updates to other routers.
SpeedStream Router User Guide System Log Configuration Options • All Events: Logs all events. • Informative Events: Logs general information about non-critical changes in system status. • Minor Events: Logs events that might indicate a condition requiring user intervention, and generates a warning about this change in the system status. • Major Events: Logs events that require immediate user attention, and generates a warning about critical conditions or changes in the system status.
