If the ISP or your network administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 3.2.2 RIP Setup RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets. When set to both, the Prestige will broadcast its routing table periodically and incorporate the RIP information that it receives; when set to none, it will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets received.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router IP Pool Setup The Prestige is pre-configured with a pool of 32 IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33 to 192.168.1.64. This configuration leaves 31 IP addresses (excluding the Prestige itself) in the lower range for other server machines, e.g., server for mail, FTP, telnet, web, etc., that you may have. DNS Server Address DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa, e.g., the IP address of www.zyxel.com is 204.217.0.2.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router sure that you enter their IP addresses in the DHCP Setup menu. This way, the Prestige can pass the DNS servers to the workstations and the workstations can query the DNS server directly without the Prestige’s intervention.

Pri Phone and Sec Phone Number Both the Primary and the Secondary Phone number refer to the number that the Prestige dials to connect to the ISP.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 3.5 Single User Account Typically, if there are multiple users on the LAN wanting to concurrently access the Internet, you will have to lease a block of legal, or globally unique, IP addresses from the ISP. The Single User Account (SUA) feature allows you to have the same benefits as having multiple legal addresses, but only pay for one IP address, thus saving 192.168.1.33 Same Network Number 192.168.1.34 192.168.1.1 INTERNET 192.168.1.35 192.168.1.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router the allocation of IP addresses when connecting branch offices to the corporate network.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router The IP address for the SUA can be either fixed or dynamically assigned when a call is connected. In addition, you can designate servers, e.g., a web server and a telnet server, on your local network and make them accessible to the outside world. If you do not define any server, SUA offers the additional benefit of firewall protection. If no server is defined, all incoming inquiries will be filtered out by your Prestige and thus preventing intruders from probing your network.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 3.5.2 Single User Account Configuration The steps for configuring your Prestige for Single User Account are identical to the conventional Internet access with the exception that you need to fill in two Menu 4 - Internet Access Setup ISP's Name= myISP Pri Phone #= 1234 Sec Phone #= My Login= JohnDoe My Password= ******** Single User Account= Yes IP Addr= 0.0.0.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router At this point, your Prestige will ask if you wish to test the Internet connection. If you select Yes, the Prestige will call the ISP and test the configuration. If the test fails, note the error messages on the screen and take the appropriate troubleshooting steps. 3.6 Configuring Backup ISP Accounts If you have more than one ISP account, you can configure the secondary ISP as a backup. You can switch to the backup ISP in the event that the primary ISP is out of service.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 3.6.2 To Switch ISP Follow these steps when you need to switch from your primary ISP to a backup ISP: Step 1. Enter Menu 11 and select your Primary ISP. Step 2. In Menu 11.1, set the Active field to No. Step 3. Enter Menu 11 again and select your Backup ISP. Step 4. In Menu 11.1, set the Active field to Yes. You will now be able to access the Internet through the backup ISP Remote Node.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Chapter 4 Remote Node Configuration A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both the remote gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. Note that when you use Menu 4 to set up Internet access, you are actually configuring one of the remote nodes. Once a remote node is configured correctly, traffic to the remote network will trigger your Prestige to make a call automatically, i.e., Dial On Demand.

Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Chapter 8 Dial-in Server Configuration You can configure your Prestige to receive calls from remote dial-in users, e.g., telecommuters, as well as remote nodes. There are several differences between dial-in users and remote nodes, as summarized in the table below. Table 8-1 Remote Dial-in Users/Remote Nodes Comparison Chart Remote Dial-in Users Remote Nodes Your Prestige will only answer calls from remote dial-in users; it will not make calls to them.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 8.1 Remote Access Server Telecommuting enables people to work at remote sites and yet still have access to the resources in the business office. Typically, a telecommuter will use a client workstation with TCP/IP and dial-out capabilities, e.g., a Windows PC or a Macintosh. For telecommuters to call in to your Prestige, you need to configure a dial-in user profile for each telecommuter.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 8.2 LAN-to-LAN Server Application Your Prestige can also be used as a dial-in server for LAN-to-LAN application to provide access for the workstations on a remote network. For your Prestige to be set up as a LAN-to-LAN server, you need to configure the Default Dial-In Setup to set the operational parameters for incoming calls. Additionally, you must create a remote node for the router on the remote network (see Chapter 5 Remote Node Configuration).
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 8.3 Default Dial-In Setup This section covers the default dial-in parameters. The parameters in Menu 13 affect incoming calls from both remote dial-in users, and remote nodes until authentication is completed.

Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Chapter 10 L2TP Support This chapter shows how to reduce the cost of remote dial-up networking by taking advantage of the Internet using L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol). 10.1 What is L2TP? Tunneling is the key to L2TP (and other virtual dial-up services). With tunneling, protocol packets of one type of network are put inside or encapsulated in the protocol packets of another network for transport across that network.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 10.2 Advantages of L2TP: ♦ Users can take advantage of the low cost of the Internet. Instead of making a long-distance call to connect directly with the corporate site’s remote access server, remote users dial in to a local ISP and use the Internet to handle all long-distance connections. ♦ The protocol provides virtual dial-up because the user doesn’t really dial in to the corporate network, but when the connection is complete, it’s as if he does.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router In L2TP terminology, the NAS (network access server) at the ISP is the L2TP client and is called a LAC (L2TP Access Concentrator). The Prestige at the corporate LAN is the server and is called a LNS (L2TP Network Server). A tunnel exists between the LAC and the LNS. The (mobile) user utilizes L2TP for the Internet tunnel. In simple terms, a LAC forwards packets and must have a GSTN connection; a LNS negotiates PPP with a user but does not necessarily have a GSTN connection.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router The remote user dials in to an ISP. A tunnel is then set up from the ISP across the Internet to a corporate gateway server. Once the tunnel is set up, mobile users access the corporate network as if they had dialed directly into that network. 10.3.3 Internet-based tunnel process: 1. The remote user dials the ISP and the ISP collects logon information from the user. 2.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 10.4.1 Endpoint Table Both the LNS and the LAC refer to this table to find the tunnel endpoint. Please note that a receiving L2TP endpoint must have a fixed, globally unique IP address while an initiating endpoint may have a dynamic IP address. 10.4.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router In this scenario, the ISP is the LAC. The LAC will search for the Endpoint Name (domain or realm name) in its endpoint table to know whether it should create a tunnel or not (i.e., ordinary Internet access). In the above example, a tunnel is created between the Prestige LNS and the LAC. The user name and password in Win 95’s Dial-up-Networking must be defined in menu 14.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Table 10-1 SMT Menu 11.1- Remote Profile L2TP fields Field Description Tunneling mode Select mode of Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP in menu 10). Choices are None, Direct or Proxy. Endpoint Index This is the corresponding index number of the endpoint tunnel in Menu 10. Direct mode In Direct mode, you use two Prestiges directly to implement L2TP as illustrated.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router since the LAC’s IP address could be dynamically assigned each time a call is made to the ISP, the user can enter any IP address in this case i.e., it is irrelevant – see Figure 10-2. The LNS will accept the tunnel setup request from any IP address as long as My Host Name and Shared Secret are correct. The relevant SMT menus are as follows. See Chapter 6 for more information on remote nodes. Four tunnel endpoint profiles can be defined in Menu 10.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Peer Host Name This is the name of the peer computer at the far end. Shared Secret This password must be the same for both endpoints. IP Address A receiving L2TP endpoint must have a fixed, globally unique IP address. Proxy Mode For the LNS in this case, choose Proxy for Tunneling Mode in menu 11.1 as the LNS is asking the LAC to place a call on its behalf. If outgoing calls are allowed and there is an idle phone line, the LAC will act as a proxy for the LNS. The menu 10.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router tunneling. In Figure 10-2 above, zyxel.com.tw is entered as the Endpoint Name for the LAC in order to set up a tunnel to ZyXEL-HQ. Outgoing Call Here, the LNS asks the Prestige LAC to place a call on its behalf. If outgoing calls are allowed and there is an idle phone line, the LAC will place the call. In this scenario, the LAC acts as a proxy for the LNS.
Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Chapter 11 Filter Configuration 11.1 About Filtering Your Prestige uses filters to decide whether or not to allow passage of a data packet and/or to make a call. There are two types of filters: data filters and call filters. Data filters screen the data to determine if the packet should be allowed to pass. Data filters are further divided into incoming and outgoing filters, depending on the direction of the packet relative to a port.

Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 11.3.2 Generic Filter Rule This section shows you how to configure a generic filter rule. The purpose of generic rules is to allow you to filter non-IP/IPX packets. For IP and IPX packets, it is generally easier to use the IP and IPX rules directly. For generic rules, the Prestige treats a packet as a byte stream as opposed to an IP or IPX packet. You specify the portion of the packet to check with the Offset (from 0) and the Length fields, both in bytes.

Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 14.2 Telnet Under SUA When Single User Account (SUA) is enabled and an inside server is specified, telnet connections from the outside will be forwarded to the inside server. So to configure the Prestige via telnet from the outside, you must first telnet to the inside server, and then telnet from the server to the Prestige using its inside LAN IP address. If no insider server is specified, telnetting to the SUA’s IP address will connect to the Prestige directly. 14.
