We strongly recommend you to change the system password for security reason. 4.5 Forwarding Rules 4.5.1 Virtual Server This products NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping. A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule. For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.123.1, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.123.2, and a VPN server at 192.168.123.6, then you need to specify the following virtual server mapping table:

Service Port Server IP Enable 21 80 1723 192.168.123.1 192.168.123.2 192.168.123.6 V V V 4.5.2 Special AP Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the DMZ host instead. 1. Trigger: the outbound port number issued by the application.. 2. Incoming Ports: when the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall. This product provides some predefined settings Select your application and click Copy to to add the predefined setting to your list. Note! At any given time, only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel. 4.5.3 Miscellaneous Items IP Address of DMZ Host DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of firewall. It allows a computer to be exposed to unrestricted 2-way communication for Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. NOTE: This feature should be used only when needed. Non-standard FTP port You have to configure this item if you want to access an FTP server whose port number is not 21. This setting will be lost after rebooting. 4.6 Security Settings 4.6.1 Packet Filter Packet Filter enables you to control what packets are allowed to pass the router. Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, Inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies:

1. Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules 2. Deny all to pass except those match the specified rules You can specify 8 rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following:

Source IP address Source port address Destination IP address Destination port address Protocol: TCP or UDP or both. Use Rule#

For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1) or a range of IP addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty implies all IP addresses. For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). Add prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999. No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. Packet Filter can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule. Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually. Inbound Filter:

To enable Inbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Inbound Packet Filter field. Suppose you have SMTP Server (25), POP Server (110), Web Server (80), FTP Server

(21), and News Server (119) defined in Virtual Server or DMZ Host. Example 1:

(1.2.3.100-1.2.3.149) They are allow to send mail (port 25), receive mail (port 110), and browse the Internet (port 80)

(1.2.3.10-1.2.3.20) They can do everything (block nothing) Others are all blocked. Example 2:

(1.2.3.100-1.2.3.119) They can do everything except read net news (port 119) and transfer files via FTP (port 21) Others are all allowed. After Inbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button. Outbound Filter:

To enable Outbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Outbound Packet Filter field. Example 1:

(192.168.123.100-192.168.123.149) They are allowed to send mail (port 25), receive mail (port 110), and browse Internet (port 80); port 53 (DNS) is necessary to resolve the domain name.

(192.168.123.10-192.168.123.20) They can do everything (block nothing) Others are all blocked. Example 2:

(192.168.123.100-192.168.123.119) They can do everything except read net news

(port 119) and transfer files via FTP (port 21) Others are allowed After Outbound Packet Filter setting is configured, click the save button. 4.6.2 Domain Filter Domain Filter let you prevent users under this device from accessing specific URLs. Domain Filter Enable Checke if you want to enable Domain Filter. Log DNS Query Checke if you want to log the action when someone accesses the specific URLs. Privilege IP Addresses Range Setting a group of hosts and privilege these hosts to access network without restriction. Domain Suffix A suffix of URL to be restricted. For example, ".com", "xxx.com". Action When someone is accessing the URL met the domain-suffix, what kind of action you want. Checke drop to block the access. Checke log to log these access. Enable Checke to enable each rule. Example:

In this example:

1. URL include sex.com will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file. 2. URL include girl.com will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file. 3. URL include erotica.com will be blocked, but the action will not be record in log-file. 4. IP address X.X.X.1~ X.X.X.10 can access network without restriction. 4.6.3 URL Blocking URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites. The major difference between Domain filter and URL Blocking is Domain filter require user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites by simply a keyword. URL Blocking Enable Checked if you want to enable URL Blocking. URL If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the connection will be blocked. For example, you can use pre-defined word "sex" to block all websites if their URLs contain pre-defined word "sex". Enable Checked to enable each rule. In this example:

1.URL include sex will be blocked, and the action will be record in log-file. 2.URL include erotica will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file 3.URL include girl will not be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file. 4. URL include game will be blocked, but the action will be record in log-file 4.6.4 MAC Address Control MAC Address Control allows you to assign different access right for different users and to assign a specific IP address to a certain MAC address. MAC Address Control Check Enable to enable the MAC Address Control. All of the Connection control settings in this page will take effect only when Enable is checked. Check "Connection control" to enable the controlling of which wired and wireless clients can connect to this device. If a client is denied to connect to this device, it means the client can't access to the Internet either. Choose "allow" or "deny" to allow or deny the clients, whose MAC addresses are not in the "Control table" (please see below), to connect to this device. Assosiation control Check "Association control" to enable the controling of which wireless client can associate to the wireless LAN. If a client is denied to associate to the wireless LAN, it means the client can't send or receive any data via this device. Choose "allow" or "deny" to allow or deny the clients, whose MAC addresses are not in the "Control table", to associate to the wireless LAN. Control table

"Control table" is the table at the bottom of the "MAC Address Control"

page. Each row of this table indicates the MAC address and the expected IP address mapping of a client. There are four columns in this table:

MAC Address MAC address indicates a specific client. IP Address C A Expected IP address of the corresponding client. Keep it empty if you don't care its IP address. When "Connection control" is checked, check "C" will allow the corresponding client to connect to this device. When "Association control" is checked, check "A" will allow the corresponding client to associate to the wireless LAN. In this page, we provide the following Combobox and button to help you to input the MAC address. You can select a specific client in the DHCP clients Combobox, and then click on the Copy to button to copy the MAC address of the client you select to the ID selected in the ID Combobox. Previous page and Next Page To make this setup page simple and clear, we have divided the Control table into several pages. You can use these buttons to navigate to different pages. 4.6.5 VPN setting VPN Settings are settings that are used to create virtual private tunnels to remote VPN gateways. The tunnel technology supports data confidentiality, data origin authentication and data integrity of network information by utilizing encapsulation protocols, encryption algorithms, and hashing algorithms. VPN enable item VPN protects network information from ill network inspectors. But it greatly degrades network throughput. Enable it when you really need a security tunnel. It is disabled for default. Max. number of tunnels item Since VPN greatly degrades network throughput, the allowable maximum number of tunnels is limited. Be careful to set the value for allowing the number of tunnels can be created simultaneously. Its value ranges from 1 to 5. Tunnel name Indicate which tunnel that is focused now. Method IPSec VPN supports two kinds of key-obtained methods: manual key and automatic key exchange. Manual key approach indicates that two end VPN gateways setup authenticator and encryption key by system managers manually. However, IKE approach will perform automatic Internet key exchange. System managers of both end gateways only need set the same pre-shared key. Function of Buttons More: To setup detailer configuration for manual key or IKE approaches by clicking the "More"
