CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of the ADSL Barricade TM g, hereafter referred to as the "Barricade". We are proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for connecting your local area network (LAN) to the Internet. For those who want to surf the Internet in the most secure way, this router provides a convenient and powerful solution. About the Barricade The Barricade provides Internet access to multiple users by sharing a single-user account.
INTRODUCTION • Firewall with Stateful Packet Inspection, client privileges, intrusion detection, and NAT • NAT also enables multi-user Internet access via a single user account, and virtual server functionality (providing protected access to Internet services such as web, FTP, e-mail, and Telnet) • VPN pass-through (IPSec-ESP Tunnel mode, L2TP, PPTP) • User-definable application sensing tunnel supports applications requiring multiple connections • Easy setup through a web browser on any operating s
APPLICATIONS • Shared IP Address The Barricade provides Internet access for up to 253 users via a single shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple users on your network can browse the web at the same time. • Virtual Server If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the Barricade to act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote users access various services at your site using a constant IP address.
INTRODUCTION • Virtual Private Network (VPN) The Barricade supports three of the most commonly used VPN protocols — PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec. These protocols allow remote users to establish a secure connection to their corporate network. If your service provider supports VPNs, then these protocols can be used to create an authenticated and encrypted tunnel for passing secure data over the Internet (i.e., a traditionally shared data network).
CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION Before installing the ADSL Barricade TM g, verify that you have all the items listed under the Package Contents list. If any of the items are missing or damaged, contact your local distributor. Also be sure that you have all the necessary cabling before installing the Barricade.

Table of current Interface RIP parameter Interface The WAN interface to be configured.
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE Parameter Authentication Required Authentication Code Description • None: No authentication. • Password: A password authentication key is included in the packet. If this does not match what is expected, the packet will be discarded. This method provides very little security as it is possible to learn the authentication key by watching RIP packets.
ADVANCED SETUP Routing Table Parameter Description Flags Indicates the route status: C = Direct connection on the same subnet. S = Static route. R = RIP (Routing Information Protocol) assigned route. I = ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) Redirect route. Network Address Destination IP address. Netmask The subnetwork associated with the destination. This is a template that identifies the address bits in the destination address used for routing to specific subnets.
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE Firewall The Barricade Router’s firewall inspects packets at the application layer, maintains TCP and UDP session information including time-outs and the number of active sessions, and provides the ability to detect and prevent certain types of network attacks. Network attacks that deny access to a network device are called Denial-ofService (DoS) attacks. DoS attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to the Internet.
ADVANCED SETUP Access Control Access Control allows users to define the outgoing traffic permitted or not-permitted through the WAN interface. The default is to permit all outgoing traffic.
