CHAPTER 1 Introduction 1.1 Overview This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the EMG6765-Q10A. The EMG6765-Q10A extends the range of your existing wired network without additional wiring, providing easy network access to mobile users. You can set up a wireless network with other IEEE 802.11a/ac/b/g/n compatible devices. The EMG6765-Q10A is a dual-band AP and able to function both 2.4G and 5G networks at the same time. You could use the 2.4 GHz band for regular Internet surfing and downloading while using the 5 GHz band for time sensitive traffic like high-definition video, music, and gaming. Figure 1 Dual-Band Application A range of services such as a firewall and content filtering are also available for secure Internet computing. There is one USB 2.0 port on the side panel of your EMG6765-Q10A, and the other one is on the rear panel of your EMG6765-Q10A. You can connect USB (version 2.0 or lower) memory sticks, USB hard drives, or USB devices for file sharing. The EMG6765-Q10A automatically detects the USB devices. Make sure the USB LED is off before removing your USB device. This will remove your USB device safely, preventing file or data loss if it is being transmitted through the USB device. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 12 Chapter 1 Introduction Note: For the USB function, it is strongly recommended to use version 2.0 or lower USB storage devices (such as memory sticks, USB hard drives) and/or USB devices. Other USB products are not guaranteed to function properly with the EMG6765-Q10A. The EMG6765-Q10A also comes with one coaxial port that supports MoCA (Multimedia over Coax Alliance) technology. Use MoCA technology to extend your network through a coaxial connection to another MoCA device and/or a device connected to a MoCA adapter. Use a (supported) web browser to manage the EMG6765-Q10A. 1.2 Applications You can have the following networks with the EMG6765-Q10A:
Wired. You can connect network devices via the Ethernet ports of the EMG6765-Q10A so that they can communicate with each other and access the Internet. Wireless. Wireless clients can connect to the EMG6765-Q10A to access network resources. You can use WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) to create an instant network connection with another WPS-
compatible device. WAN. Connect to a broadband modem/router for Internet access. Figure 2 EMG6765-Q10A Networks 1.3 Ways to Manage the EMG6765-Q10A Use any of the following methods to manage the EMG6765-Q10A. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). You can use the WPS button or the WPS section of the Web Configurator to set up a wireless network with your EMG6765-Q10A. Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the EMG6765-Q10A using a
(supported) web browser. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 13 Chapter 1 Introduction 1.4 Good Habits for Managing the EMG6765-Q10A Do the following things regularly to make the EMG6765-Q10A more secure and to manage the EMG6765-Q10A more effectively. Change the password. Use a password thats not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters. Write down the password and put it in a safe place. Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the EMG6765-Q10A to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the EMG6765-Q10A. You could simply restore your last configuration. 1.5 Resetting the EMG6765-Q10A If you forget your password or IP address, or you cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need to use the RESET button at the back of the EMG6765-Q10A to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the user name will be reset to admin, the password will be reset to the back-label default key, and the IP address will be reset to 192.168.1.1 (router mode). 1.5.1 RESET Button 1 Make sure the power LED is on. 2 3 Press and hold the RESET button for more than 5 seconds, the power LED begins flashing. Release the RESET button. The EMG6765-Q10A reloads factory-default settings and begins to reboot. 1.5.2 The WPS Button Your EMG6765-Q10A supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which is an easy way to set up a secure wireless network. WPS is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Each WPS connection works between two devices. Both devices must support WPS (check each devices documentation to make sure). Depending on the devices you have, you can either press a button (on the device itself, or in its configuration utility) or enter a PIN (a unique Personal Identification Number that allows one device to authenticate the other) on each of the two devices. When WPS is activated on a device, it has two minutes to find another device that also has WPS activated. Then, the two devices connect and set up a secure network by themselves. You can use the WPS button (
quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.
) on the side panel of the EMG6765-Q10A to activate WPS in order to 1 Make sure the power LED is on (not blinking). EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 14 Chapter 1 Introduction 2 Press the WPS button for more than one second and release it. Press the WPS button on another WPS-
enabled device within range of the EMG6765-Q10A. Note: You must activate WPS on the EMG6765-Q10A and on another wireless device within two minutes of each other. For more information on using WPS, see Section 6.8 on page 48. 1.6 Front Panel The LED indicators are located on the front panel. Look at the LED lights on the front panel to determine the status of the EMG6765-Q10A. Front Panel Power WLAN 2.4G Internet WLAN 5G MoCA The following table describes the LEDs.

EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 43 Chapter 6 Tutorials 6.5 Configuring Static Route for Routing to Another Network In order to extend your Intranet and control traffic flowing directions, you may connect a router to the EMG6765-Q10As LAN. The router may be used to separate two department networks. This tutorial shows how to configure a static routing rule for two network routings. In the following figure, router R is connected to the EMG6765-Q10As LAN. R connects to two networks, N1 (192.168.1.x/24) and N2 (192.168.10.x/24). If you want to send traffic from computer A (in N1 network) to computer B (in N2 network), the traffic is sent to the EMG6765-Q10As WAN default gateway by default. In this case, B will never receive the traffic. You need to specify a static routing rule on the EMG6765-Q10A to specify R as the router in charge of forwarding traffic to N2. In this case, the EMG6765-Q10A routes traffic from A to R and then R routes the traffic to B. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 44 Chapter 6 Tutorials This tutorial uses the following example IP settings:
Table 10 IP Settings in this Tutorial DEVICE / COMPUTER The EMG6765-Q10As WAN The EMG6765-Q10As LAN IP Type Use Interface A Rs N1 Rs N2 B IP ADDRESS 172.16.1.1 192.168.1.1 WAN VDSL 192.168.1.34 192.168.1.253 192.168.10.2 192.168.10.33 To configure a static route to route traffic from N1 to N2:

EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 45 Chapter 6 Tutorials Now B should be able to receive traffic from A. You may need to additionally configure Bs firewall settings to allow specific traffic to pass through. 6.6 Access the EMG6765-Q10A Using DDNS If you connect your EMG6765-Q10A to the Internet and it uses a dynamic WAN IP address, it is inconvenient for you to manage the device from the Internet. The EMG6765-Q10As WAN IP address changes dynamically. Dynamic DNS (DDNS) allows you to access the EMG6765-Q10A using a domain name. To use this feature, you have to apply for DDNS service at, for example, www.dyndns.org. This tutorial covers:
Registering a DDNS Account on www.dyndns.org Configuring DDNS on Your EMG6765-Q10A Testing the DDNS Setting Note: If you have a private WAN IP address, then you cannot use DDNS. 6.6.1 Registering a DDNS Account on www.dyndns.org 1 Open a browser and type http://www.dyndns.org. 2 Apply for a user account. This tutorial uses UserName1 and 5 as the username and password. 3 Log into www.dyndns.org using your account. 4 Add a new DDNS host name. This tutorial uses the following settings as an example. Hostname: zyxelrouter.dyndns.org Service Type: Host with IP address IP Address: Enter the WAN IP address that your EMG6765-Q10A is currently using. You can find the IP address on the EMG6765-Q10As Web Configurator Status page. Then you will need to configure the same account and host name on the EMG6765-Q10A later. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 46 Chapter 6 Tutorials 6.6.2 Configuring DDNS on Your EMG6765-Q10A Configure the following settings in the Network Setting > DNS > Dynamic DNS screen. Select Enable Dynamic DNS. Select www.DynDNS.com as the service provider. Type zyxelrouter.dyndns.org in the Host Name field. Enter the user name (UserName1) and password (5). Click Apply. 6.6.3 Testing the DDNS Setting Now you should be able to access the EMG6765-Q10A from the Internet. To test this:
1 Open a web browser on the computer (using the IP address a.b.c.d) that is connected to the Internet. 2 3 Type http://zyxelrouter.dyndns.org and press [Enter]. The EMG6765-Q10As login page should appear. You can then log into the EMG6765-Q10A and manage it. 6.7 Configuring the MAC Address Filter Thomas noticed that his daughter Josephine spends too much time surfing the web and downloading media files. He decided to prevent Josephine from accessing the Internet so that she can concentrate on preparing for her final exams. Josephines computer connects wirelessly to the Internet through the EMG6765-Q10A. Thomas decides to use the Configuration > Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or 5G > MAC Filter screen to grant wireless network access to his computer but not to Josephines computer. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 47 Chapter 6 Tutorials 1 Click Configuration > Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or 5G to open the MAC Filter screen. Select the Enable check box to activate MAC Address Filter. 2 Select Allow. Then enter the MAC address of Thomas computer in this screen. Click Apply. Thomas can also grant access to the computers of other members of his family and friends. However, Josephine and others not listed in this screen will no longer be able to access the Internet through the EMG6765-Q10A. 6.8 Using Multiple SSIDs on the EMG6765-Q10A You can configure more than one SSID on a EMG6765-Q10A. See Section 9.4 on page 81. This allows you to configure multiple independent wireless networks on the EMG6765-Q10A as if there were multiple APs (virtual APs). Each virtual AP has its own SSID, wireless security type and MAC filtering settings. That is, each SSID on the EMG6765-Q10A represents a different access point/wireless network to wireless clients in the network. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 48 Chapter 6 Tutorials Clients can associate only with the SSIDs for which they have the correct security settings. Clients using different SSIDs can access the Internet and the wired network behind the EMG6765-Q10A (such as a printer). For example, you may set up three wireless networks (A, B and C) in your office. A is for workers, B is for guests and C is specific to a VoIP device in the meeting room. 6.8.1 Configuring Security Settings of Multiple SSIDs The EMG6765-Q10A is in router mode by default. This example shows you how to configure the SSIDs with the following parameters on your EMG6765-

Q10A for Internet access. A WAN (Wide Area Network) connection is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. It connects your private networks such as a LAN (Local Area Network) and other networks, so that a computer in one location can communicate with computers in other locations. Figure 24 LAN and WAN 8.2 What You Can Do Use the Internet Connection screen to enter your ISP information and set how the computer acquires its IP, DNS and WAN MAC addresses (Section 8.4 on page 62). 8.3 What You Need To Know The information in this section can help you configure the screens for your WAN connection, as well as enable/disable some advanced features of your EMG6765-Q10A. 8.3.1 Configuring Your Internet Connection Encapsulation Method Encapsulation is used to include data from an upper layer protocol into a lower layer protocol. To set up a WAN connection to the Internet, you need to use the same encapsulation method used by your ISP
(Internet Service Provider). If your ISP offers a dial-up Internet connection using PPPoE (PPP over EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 60 Chapter 8 WAN Ethernet) or PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol), they should also provide a username and password
(and service name) for user authentication. WAN IP Address The WAN IP address is an IP address for the EMG6765-Q10A, which makes it accessible from an outside network. It is used by the EMG6765-Q10A to communicate with other devices in other networks. It can be static (fixed) or dynamically assigned by the ISP each time the EMG6765-Q10A tries to access the Internet. If your ISP assigns you a static WAN IP address, they should also assign you the subnet mask and DNS server IP address(es) (and a gateway IP address if you use the Ethernet or ENET ENCAP encapsulation method). DNS Server Address Assignment Use Domain Name System (DNS) to map a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa, for instance, the IP address of www.zyxel.com is 204.217.0.2. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a computer before you can access it. The EMG6765-Q10A can get the DNS server addresses in the following ways. 1 2 The ISP tells you the DNS server addresses, usually in the form of an information sheet, when you sign up. If your ISP gives you DNS server addresses, manually enter them in the DNS server fields. If your ISP dynamically assigns the DNS server IP addresses (along with the EMG6765-Q10As WAN IP address), set the DNS server fields to get the DNS server address from the ISP. WAN MAC Address The MAC address screen allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address by either using the factory default or cloning the MAC address from a computer on your LAN. Choose Factory Default to select the factory assigned default MAC Address. Otherwise, click Clone the computer's MAC address - IP Address and enter the IP address of the computer on the LAN whose MAC you are cloning. Once it is successfully configured, the address will be copied to configuration file. It is recommended that you clone the MAC address prior to hooking up the WAN Port. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 61 Chapter 8 WAN Multicast Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender - 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender - everybody on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to a group of hosts on the network - not everybody and not just 1. Figure 25 Multicast Example In the multicast example above, systems A and D comprise one multicast group. In multicasting, the server only needs to send one data stream and this is delivered to systems A and D. IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in a multicast group - it is not used to carry user data. The EMG6765-Q10A supports both IGMP version 1
(IGMP-v1) and IGMP version 2 (IGMP-v2). At start up, the EMG6765-Q10A queries all directly connected networks to gather group membership. After that, the EMG6765-Q10A periodically updates this information. IP multicasting can be enabled/
disabled on the EMG6765-Q10A WAN interface in the Web Configurator (WAN). Select None to disable IP multicasting on these interfaces. 8.4 Management WAN Use this screen to view, change, or add your EMG6765-Q10As Internet access settings.

PPPoE is an IETF standard
(RFC 2516) specifying how a personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband modem (DSL, cable, wireless, etc.) connection. The PPP over Ethernet option is for a dial-up connection using PPPoE. For the service provider, PPPoE offers an access and authentication method that works with existing access control systems (for example Radius). One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let you access one of multiple network services, a function known as dynamic service selection. This enables the service provider to easily create and offer new IP services for individuals. Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both you and the ISP or carrier, as it requires no specific configuration of the broadband modem at the customer site. By implementing PPPoE directly on the EMG6765-Q10A (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the EEMG6765-Q10A does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LANs computers will have access. This screen displays when you select PPPoE encapsulation.

The EMG6765-Q10A is able to function both 2.4GHz and 5GHz network at the same time. You can have different wireless and wireless security settings for 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless LANs. Click Configuration >
Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or Wireless LAN 5G to configure to do so. See the appendices for more detailed information about wireless networks. The following figure provides an example of a wireless network. Figure 30 Example of a Wireless Network The wireless network is the part in the blue circle. In this wireless network, devices A and B are called wireless clients. The wireless clients use the access point (AP) to interact with other devices (such as the printer) or with the Internet. Your EMG6765-Q10A is the AP. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 72 Chapter 9 Wireless LAN 9.1.1 What You Can Do Use the General screen to turn the wireless connection on or off, set up wireless security between the EMG6765-Q10A and the wireless clients, and make other basic configuration changes (Section 9.2 on page 76). Use the More AP screen to set up multiple wireless networks on your EMG6765-Q10A (Section 9.4 on page 81). Use the MAC Filter screen to allow or deny wireless stations based on their MAC addresses from connecting to the EMG6765-Q10A (Section 9.5 on page 84). Use the Advanced screen to allow intra-BSS networking and set the RTS/CTS Threshold (Section 9.6 on page 86). Use the QoS screen to ensure Quality of Service (QoS) in your wireless network (Section 9.7 on page 87). Use the WPS screen to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually (Section 9.8 on page 87). Use the WPS Station screen to add a wireless station using WPS (Section 9.9 on page 89). Use the Scheduling screen to set the times your wireless LAN is turned on and off (Section 9.10 on page 89). Use the Airtime Management screen to assign available airtime and bandwidth to interfaces and hosts (Section 9.11 on page 90). 9.1.2 What You Should Know Every wireless network must follow these basic guidelines. Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use the same SSID. The SSID is the name of the wireless network. It stands for Service Set IDentity. If two wireless networks overlap, they should use different channels. Like radio stations or television channels, each wireless network uses a specific channel, or frequency, to send and receive information. Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use security compatible with the AP. Security stops unauthorized devices from using the wireless network. It can also protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. Wireless Security Overview The following sections introduce different types of wireless security you can set up in the wireless network. SSID Normally, the AP acts like a beacon and regularly broadcasts the SSID in the area. You can hide the SSID instead, in which case the AP does not broadcast the SSID. In addition, you should change the default SSID to something that is difficult to guess. This type of security is fairly weak, however, because there are ways for unauthorized devices to get the SSID. In addition, unauthorized devices can still see the information that is sent in the wireless network. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 73 Chapter 9 Wireless LAN MAC Address Filter Every wireless client has a unique identification number, called a MAC address.1 A MAC address is usually written using twelve hexadecimal characters2; for example, 00A0C5000002 or 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. To get the MAC address for each wireless client, see the appropriate Users Guide or other documentation. You can use the MAC address filter to tell the AP which wireless clients are allowed or not allowed to use the wireless network. If a wireless client is allowed to use the wireless network, it still has to have the correct settings (SSID, channel, and security). If a wireless client is not allowed to use the wireless network, it does not matter if it has the correct settings. This type of security does not protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. Furthermore, there are ways for unauthorized devices to get the MAC address of an authorized wireless client. Then, they can use that MAC address to use the wireless network. User Authentication You can make every user log in to the wireless network before they can use it. This is called user authentication. However, every wireless client in the wireless network has to support IEEE 802.1x to do this. For wireless networks, there are two typical places to store the user names and passwords for each user. In the AP: this feature is called a local user database or a local database. In a RADIUS server: this is a server used in businesses more than in homes. If your AP does not provide a local user database and if you do not have a RADIUS server, you cannot set up user names and passwords for your users. Unauthorized devices can still see the information that is sent in the wireless network, even if they cannot use the wireless network. Furthermore, there are ways for unauthorized wireless users to get a valid user name and password. Then, they can use that user name and password to use the wireless network. Local user databases also have an additional limitation that is explained in the next section. Guest WLAN Guest WLAN allows you to set up a wireless network where users can access to Internet via the EMG6765-Q10A (Z), but not other networks connected to the Z. In the following figure, a guest user can access the Internet from the guest wireless network A via Z but not the home or company network N. Note: The home or company network N and Guest WLAN network are independent networks. 1. 2. Some wireless devices, such as scanners, can detect wireless networks but cannot use wireless networks. These kinds of wireless devices might not have MAC addresses. Hexadecimal characters are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 74 Chapter 9 Wireless LAN Figure 31 Guest Wireless LAN Network A Z N Guest WLAN Bandwidth The Guest WLAN Bandwidth function allows you to restrict the maximum bandwidth for the guest wireless network. Additionally, you can also define bandwidth for your home or office network. An example is shown next to define maximum bandwidth for your networks (A is Guest WLAN and N is home or company network.) Figure 32 Example: Bandwidth for Different Networks N 600 kbps 100 kbps 300 kbps A WPS Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Depending on the devices in your network, you can either press a button (on the device itself, or in its configuration utility) or enter a PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the devices. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 75 Chapter 9 Wireless LAN Then, they connect and set up a secure network by themselves. See how to set up a secure wireless network using WPS in the Section 6.8 on page 48. 9.2 General Wireless LAN Screen Use this screen to configure the SSID and wireless security of the wireless LAN. Note: If you are configuring the EMG6765-Q10A from a computer connected to the wireless LAN and you change the EMG6765-Q10As SSID, channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm.

Deselect this check box if you wish to manually select the channel using the Channel Selection field. Click Scan channel so the EMG6765-Q10A can scan for an available channel. This displays the channel the EMG6765-Q10A is currently using. Select the wireless channel width used by EMG6765-Q10A. Network Search Operating Channel Channel Width A standard 20 MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 144Mbps (2.4GHz) or 217Mbps
(5GHZ) whereas a 40MHz channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300Mbps (2.4GHz) or 450Mbps (5GHZ). An IEEE 802.11ac-specific 80MHz channel offers speeds of up to 1.3Gbps. Because not all devices support 40 MHz and/or 80 MHz channels, select Auto 20/40 MHz or Auto 20/40/80 MHz to allow the EMG6765-Q10A to adjust the channel bandwidth automatically. 40 MHz (channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to increase throughput. A 80 MHz channel consists of two adjacent 40 MHz channels. The wireless clients must also support 40 MHz or 80 MHz. It is often better to use the 20 MHz setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal. Select 20 MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.

Data communication and audio/video streaming are allowed at the same time. The EMG6765-Q10A (A) automatically sets up a MoCA network when multiple MoCA devices (nodes) are powered on and connected with a coaxial cable. The EMG6765-Q10A supports MoCA 2.0 and is backward compatible with MoCA 1.1. The MoCA 1.1 technology provides 175 Mbps net throughputs (270 Mbps PHY rate) and operates in the 500 to 1500 MHz frequency range. MoCA 2.0 in turbo mode offers actual data rates of up to 1 Gbps MAC throughputs and operates in the 500 to 1650 MHz operating frequency range. MoCA 2.0 also supports improved packet error rate (PER) and two new power saving modes: Standby (reduced power) and Sleep (minimum power). The EMG6765-Q10A should be connected to the WAN via Ethernet, then the coaxial network in your home will only work as a LAN. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 100 Chapter 11 MoCA 11.2 What You Can Do Use the MoCA screen (Section 11.3 on page 101) to set the MoCA Privacy, and enable multimedia and home networking over coaxial cabling. Use the MoCA > Monitor screen (Section 11.4 on page 103) to view the MoCA network status and information about the connected MoCA devices (nodes). 11.3 MoCA Screen Use this screen to change the MoCA settings for your EMG6765-Q10A.

Select Above to have the EMG6765-Q10A use a frequency higher than the upper edge of the selected primary channel. Select Below to have the EMG6765-Q10A use a frequency less than the lower edge of the selected primary channel. The Packet Error Rate (PER) indicates the ratio between the total number of incorrectly received data packets and the total number of transmitted data packets. The total number of transmitted packets is at least 100,000,000 when the PER mode is NPER (Normal PER) and at least 10,000,000,000 when the PER mode is VLPER (Very Low PER). In very low PER mode, the physical data rate will be decreased in order to achieve a lower packet error rate. Select Normal to set the PER mode to NPER. Otherwise, select Very Low to set the PER mode to VLPER. The Network Coordinator (NC) is a node that performs the following functions in a MoCA network: beacon generation, MAP (Medium Allocation Plan) generation, admission of new MoCA nodes to the network, privacy key generation and distribution, and LMO (Link Maintenance Operation) scheduling. The NC is dynamically selected from all the MoCA nodes in the network. There is only one NC in a MoCA network and the rest of the MoCa nodes in the MoCA network are clients. Select Enable to configure the EMG6765-Q10A as a preferred network coordinator. The preferred NC has an advantage in the NC selection. Select Enable to turn on MoCA privacy. If this is enabled, all MoCA devices connected via coaxial cables must use the same password. Enter the password for the MoCA network.

EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 103 CHAPTER 12 DHCP Server 12.1 Overview DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can configure the EMG6765-Q10As LAN as a DHCP server or disable it. When configured as a server, the EMG6765-Q10A provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If DHCP service is disabled, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computer must be manually configured. 12.1.1 What You Can Do Use the General screen to enable the DHCP server (Section 12.2 on page 104). Use the Advanced screen to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers based on their MAC Addresses (Section 12.3 on page 105). Use the Client List screen to view the current DHCP client information (Section 12.4 on page 107). 12.1.2 What You Need To Know The following terms may help as you read through this chapter. MAC Addresses Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. Find out the MAC addresses of your network devices if you intend to add them to the DHCP Client List screen. 12.2 DHCP Server General Screen Use this screen to enable the DHCP server.

Reserve Apply Cancel EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 108 CHAPTER 13 NAT 13.1 Overview NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet. For example, the source address of an outgoing packet, used within one network is changed to a different IP address known within another network. The figure below is a simple illustration of a NAT network. You want to assign ports 21-25 to one FTP, Telnet and SMTP server (A in the example), port 80 to another (B in the example) and assign a default server IP address of 192.168.1.35 to a third (C in the example). You assign the LAN IP addresses to the devices (A to D) connected to your EMG6765-Q10A. The ISP assigns the WAN IP address. The NAT network appears as a single host on the Internet. All traffic coming from A to D going out to the Internet use the IP address of the EMG6765-Q10A, which is 192.168.1.1. Figure 58 NAT Example This chapter discusses how to configure NAT on the EMG6765-Q10A. Note: You must create a firewall rule in addition to setting up NAT, to allow traffic from the WAN to be forwarded through the EMG6765-Q10A. 13.1.1 What You Can Do Use the General screen to enable NAT (Section 13.2 on page 111). Use the Port Forwarding screen to set a default server and change your EMG6765-Q10As port forwarding settings to forward incoming service requests to the server(s) on your local network
(Section 13.3 on page 112). EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 109 Chapter 13 NAT Use the Port Trigger screen to change your EMG6765-Q10As trigger port settings (Section 13.5.3 on page 117). 13.1.2 What You Need To Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. Inside/Outside This denotes where a host is located relative to the EMG6765-Q10A, for example, the computers of your subscribers are the inside hosts, while the web servers on the Internet are the outside hosts. Global/Local This denotes the IP address of a host in a packet as the packet traverses a router, for example, the local address refers to the IP address of a host when the packet is in the local network, while the global address refers to the IP address of the host when the same packet is traveling in the WAN side. Note: Inside/outside refers to the location of a host, while global/local refers to the IP address of a host used in a packet. An inside local address (ILA) is the IP address of an inside host in a packet when the packet is still in the local network, while an inside global address (IGA) is the IP address of the same inside host when the packet is on the WAN side. The following table summarizes this information. Table 44 NAT Definitions ITEM Inside Outside Local Global DESCRIPTION This refers to the host on the LAN. This refers to the host on the WAN. This refers to the packet address (source or destination) as the packet travels on the LAN. This refers to the packet address (source or destination) as the packet travels on the WAN. Note: NAT never changes the IP address (either local or global) of an outside host. What NAT Does In the simplest form, NAT changes the source IP address in a packet received from a subscriber (the inside local address) to another (the inside global address) before forwarding the packet to the WAN side. When the response comes back, NAT translates the destination address (the inside global address) back to the inside local address before forwarding it to the original inside host. Note that the IP address
(either local or global) of an outside host is never changed. The global IP addresses for the inside hosts can be either static or dynamically assigned by the ISP. In addition, you can designate servers, for example, 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 servers, NAT offers the additional benefit of firewall protection. With no servers defined, your EMG6765-Q10A filters out all incoming inquiries, thus preventing intruders from probing your network. For more information on IP address translation, refer to RFC 1631, The IP Network Address Translator (NAT). EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 110 Chapter 13 NAT How NAT Works Each packet has two addresses a source address and a destination address. For outgoing packets, the ILA (Inside Local Address) is the source address on the LAN, and the IGA (Inside Global Address) is the source address on the WAN. For incoming packets, the ILA is the destination address on the LAN, and the IGA is the destination address on the WAN. NAT maps private (local) IP addresses to globally unique ones required for communication with hosts on other networks. It replaces the original IP source address in each packet and then forwards it to the Internet. The EMG6765-Q10A keeps track of the original addresses and port numbers so incoming reply packets can have their original values restored. The following figure illustrates this. Figure 59 How NAT Works 13.2 General Use this screen to enable NAT and set a default server. Click Network > NAT to open the General screen.

Apply Cancel 13.3 Port Forwarding Screen Use this screen to forward incoming service requests to the server(s) on your local network and set a default server. You may enter a single port number or a range of port numbers to be forwarded, and the local IP address of the desired server. The port number identifies a service; for example, web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. In some cases, such as for unknown services or where one server can support more than one service (for example both FTP and web service), it might be better to specify a range of port numbers. In addition to the servers for specified services, NAT supports a default server. A service request that does not have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default server. If the default is not defined, the service request is simply discarded. Note: Many residential broadband ISP accounts do not allow you to run any server processes
(such as a Web or FTP server) from your location. Your ISP may periodically check for servers and may suspend your account if it discovers any active services at your location. If you are unsure, refer to your ISP. Port forwarding allows you to define the local servers to which the incoming services will be forwarded. To change your EMG6765-Q10As port forwarding settings, click Network > NAT > Port Forwarding. The screen appears as shown. Note: If you do not assign a Default Server, the EMG6765-Q10A discards all packets received for ports that are not specified in this screen or remote management.

Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh. 13.5 Technical Reference The following section contains additional technical information about the EMG6765-Q10A features described in this chapter. 13.5.1 NATPort Forwarding: Services and Port Numbers A port forwarding set is a list of inside (behind NAT on the LAN) servers, for example, web or FTP, that you can make accessible to the outside world even though NAT makes your whole inside network appear as a single machine to the outside world. Use the Port Forwarding screen to forward incoming service requests to the server(s) on your local network. You may enter a single port number or a range of port numbers to be forwarded, and the local IP address of the desired server. The port number identifies a service; for example, web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. In some cases, such as for unknown services or where one server can support more than one service (for example both FTP and web service), it might be better to specify a range of port numbers. In addition to the servers for specified services, NAT supports a default server. A service request that does not have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default server. If the default is not defined, the service request is simply discarded. Note: Many residential broadband ISP accounts do not allow you to run any server processes
(such as a Web or FTP server) from your location. Your ISP may periodically check for servers and may suspend your account if it discovers any active services at your location. If you are unsure, refer to your ISP. 13.5.2 NAT Port Forwarding Example Let's say you want to assign ports 21-25 to one FTP, Telnet and SMTP server (A in the example), port 80 to another (B in the example) and assign a default server IP address of 192.168.1.35 to a third (C in the example). You assign the LAN IP addresses and the ISP assigns the WAN IP address. The NAT network appears as a single host on the Internet. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 116 Chapter 13 NAT Figure 64 Multiple Servers Behind NAT Example 13.5.3 Trigger Port Forwarding Some services use a dedicated range of ports on the client side and a dedicated range of ports on the server side. With regular port forwarding you set a forwarding port in NAT to forward a service (coming in from the server on the WAN) to the IP address of a computer on the client side (LAN). The problem is that port forwarding only forwards a service to a single LAN IP address. In order to use the same service on a different LAN computer, you have to manually replace the LAN computer's IP address in the forwarding port with another LAN computer's IP address. Trigger port forwarding solves this problem by allowing computers on the LAN to dynamically take turns using the service. The EMG6765-Q10A records the IP address of a LAN computer that sends traffic to the WAN to request a service with a specific port number and protocol (a "trigger" port). When the EMG6765-Q10A's WAN port receives a response with a specific port number and protocol ("incoming"
port), the EMG6765-Q10A forwards the traffic to the LAN IP address of the computer that sent the request. After that computers connection for that service closes, another computer on the LAN can use the service in the same manner. This way you do not need to configure a new IP address each time you want a different LAN computer to use the application. 13.5.4 Trigger Port Forwarding Example The following is an example of trigger port forwarding. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 117 Chapter 13 NAT Figure 65 Trigger Port Forwarding Process: Example 1 2 3 4 Jane requests a file from the Real Audio server (port 7070). Port 7070 is a trigger port and causes the EMG6765-Q10A to record Janes computer IP address. The EMG6765-Q10A associates Jane's computer IP address with the "incoming" port range of 6970-7170. The Real Audio server responds using a port number ranging between 6970-7170. The EMG6765-Q10A forwards the traffic to Janes computer IP address. 5 Only Jane can connect to the Real Audio server until the connection is closed or times out. The EMG6765-Q10A times out in three minutes with UDP (User Datagram Protocol), or two hours with TCP/IP
(Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). 13.5.5 Two Points To Remember About Trigger Ports 1 2 Trigger events only happen on data that is coming from inside the EMG6765-Q10A and going to the outside. If an application needs a continuous data stream, that port (range) will be tied up so that another computer on the LAN cant trigger it. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 118 CHAPTER 14 DDNS 14.1 Overview DDNS services let you use a domain name with a dynamic IP address. 14.1.1 What You Need To Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. What is DDNS?
Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) services let you use a fixed domain name with a dynamic IP address. Users can always use the same domain name instead of a different dynamic IP address that changes each time to connect to the EMG6765-Q10A or a server in your network. Note: The EMG6765-Q10A must have a public global IP address and you should have your registered DDNS account information on hand. 14.2 General To change your EMG6765-Q10As DDNS, click Network > DDNS.

The EMG6765-Q10A usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the EMG6765-Q10A send data to devices not reachable through the default gateway, use static routes. For example, the next figure shows a computer (A) connected to the EMG6765-Q10As LAN interface. The EMG6765-Q10A routes most traffic from A to the Internet through the EMG6765-Q10As default gateway (R1). You create one static route to connect to services offered by your ISP behind router R2. You create another static route to communicate with a separate network behind a router R3 connected to the LAN.

Enable the firewall to protect your LAN computers from attacks by hackers on the Internet and control access between the LAN and WAN. By default the firewall:
allows traffic that originates from your LAN computers to go to all of the networks. blocks traffic that originates on the other networks from going to the LAN. The following figure illustrates the default firewall action. User A can initiate an IM (Instant Messaging) session from the LAN to the WAN (1). Return traffic for this session is also allowed (2). However other traffic initiated from the WAN is blocked (3 and 4). Figure 73 Default Firewall Action 17.1.1 What You Can Do Use the General screen to enable or disable the EMG6765-Q10As firewall (Section 17.2 on page 129). Use the Services screen enable service blocking, enter/delete/modify the services you want to block and the date/time you want to block them (Section 17.3 on page 129). 17.1.2 What You Need To Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 127 Chapter 17 Firewall What is a Firewall?
Originally, the term firewall referred to a construction technique designed to prevent the spread of fire from one room to another. The networking term "firewall" is a system or group of systems that enforces an access-control policy between two networks. It may also be defined as a mechanism used to protect a trusted network from a network that is not trusted. Of course, firewalls cannot solve every security problem. A firewall is one of the mechanisms used to establish a network security perimeter in support of a network security policy. It should never be the only mechanism or method employed. For a firewall to guard effectively, you must design and deploy it appropriately. This requires integrating the firewall into a broad information-security policy. In addition, specific policies must be implemented within the firewall itself. Stateful Inspection Firewall Stateful inspection firewalls restrict access by screening data packets against defined access rules. They make access control decisions based on IP address and protocol. They also "inspect" the session data to assure the integrity of the connection and to adapt to dynamic protocols. These firewalls generally provide the best speed and transparency; however, they may lack the granular application level access control or caching that some proxies support. Firewalls, of one type or another, have become an integral part of standard security solutions for enterprises. About the EMG6765-Q10A Firewall The EMG6765-Q10As firewall feature physically separates the LAN and the WAN and acts as a secure gateway for all data passing between the networks. It is a stateful inspection firewall and is designed to protect against Denial of Service attacks when activated (click the General tab under Firewall and then click the Enable Firewall check box). The EMG6765-Q10A's purpose is to allow a private Local Area Network (LAN) to be securely connected to the Internet. The EMG6765-Q10A can be used to prevent theft, destruction and modification of data, as well as log events, which may be important to the security of your network. The EMG6765-Q10A is installed between the LAN and a broadband modem connecting to the Internet. This allows it to act as a secure gateway for all data passing between the Internet and the LAN. The EMG6765-Q10A has one Ethernet WAN port and four Ethernet LAN ports, which are used to physically separate the network into two areas.The WAN (Wide Area Network) port attaches to the broadband (cable or DSL) modem to the Internet. The LAN (Local Area Network) port attaches to a network of computers, which needs security from the outside world. These computers will have access to Internet services such as e-mail, FTP and the World Wide Web. However, "inbound access" is not allowed (by default) unless the remote host is authorized to use a specific service. Guidelines For Enhancing Security With Your Firewall 1 Change the default password via Web Configurator. 2 3 Think about access control before you connect to the network in any way, including attaching a modem to the port. Limit who can access your router. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 128 Chapter 17 Firewall 4 Don't enable any local service (such as NTP) that you don't use. Any enabled service could present a potential security risk. A determined hacker might be able to find creative ways to misuse the enabled services to access the firewall or the network. 5 6 7 For local services that are enabled, protect against misuse. Protect by configuring the services to communicate only with specific peers, and protect by configuring rules to block packets for the services at specific interfaces. Protect against IP spoofing by making sure the firewall is active. Keep the firewall in a secured (locked) room. 17.2 General Screen Use this screen to enable or disable the EMG6765-Q10As firewall, and set up firewall logs. Click Security

You can also define time periods and days during which the EMG6765-Q10A performs parental control on a specific user. 20.1.1 What You Need To Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. Keyword Blocking URL Checking The EMG6765-Q10A checks the URLs domain name (or IP address) and file path separately when performing keyword blocking. The URLs domain name or IP address is the characters that come before the first slash in the URL. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, the domain name is www.zyxel.com.tw. The file path is the characters that come after the first slash in the URL. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, the file path is news/pressroom.php. Since the EMG6765-Q10A checks the URLs domain name (or IP address) and file path separately, it will not find items that go across the two. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/
pressroom.php, the EMG6765-Q10A would find tw in the domain name (www.zyxel.com.tw). It would also find news in the file path (news/pressroom.php) but it would not find tw/news. 20.2 Parental Control Screen Use this screen to enable parental control, view the parental control rules and schedules.

See the appendices for information on how to access and use the command interpreter. Domain Name or IP Address URL Checking By default, the EMG6765-Q10A checks the URLs domain name or IP address when performing keyword blocking. This means that the EMG6765-Q10A checks the characters that come before the first slash in the URL. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, content filtering only searches for keywords within www.zyxel.com.tw. Full Path URL Checking Full path URL checking has the EMG6765-Q10A check the characters that come before the last slash in the URL. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, full path URL checking searches for keywords within www.zyxel.com.tw/news/. Use the ip urlfilter customize actionFlags 6 [disable | enable] command to extend (or not extend) the keyword blocking search to include the URL's full path. File Name URL Checking Filename URL checking has the EMG6765-Q10A check all of the characters in the URL. For example, filename URL checking searches for keywords within the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/
pressroom.php. Use the ip urlfilter customize actionFlags 8 [disable | enable] command to extend (or not extend) the keyword blocking search to include the URL's complete filename. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 141 CHAPTER 21 Bandwidth Management 21.1 Overview Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a networks ability to deliver data with minimum delay, and the networking methods used to control the use of bandwidth. Without QoS, all traffic data is equally likely to be dropped when the network is congested. This can cause a reduction in network performance and make the network inadequate for time-critical application such as video-on-demand. Configure QoS on the EMG6765-Q10A to group and prioritize application traffic and fine-tune network performance. Setting up QoS involves these steps:
1 Configure classifiers to sort traffic into different flows. 2 Assign priority and define actions to be performed for a classified traffic flow. The EMG6765-Q10A assigns each packet a priority and then queues the packet accordingly. Packets assigned a high priority are processed more quickly than those with low priority if there is congestion, allowing time-sensitive applications to flow more smoothly. Time-sensitive applications include both those that require a low level of latency (delay) and a low level of jitter (variations in delay) such as Voice over IP (VoIP) or Internet gaming, and those for which jitter alone is a problem such as Internet radio or streaming video. This chapter contains information about configuring QoS and editing classifiers. 21.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter The General screen lets you enable or disable QoS and set the upstream bandwidth (Section 21.3 on page 144). The Queue Setup screen lets you configure QoS queue assignment (Section 21.4 on page 145). The Class Setup screen lets you add, edit or delete QoS classifiers (Section 21.5 on page 147). 21.2 What You Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. QoS versus CoS QoS is used to prioritize source-to-destination traffic flows. All packets in the same flow are given the same priority. CoS (class of service) is a way of managing traffic in a network by grouping similar types of traffic together and treating each type as a class. You can use CoS to give different priorities to different packet types. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 142 Chapter 21 Bandwidth Management CoS technologies include IEEE 802.1p layer 2 tagging and DiffServ (Differentiated Services or DS). IEEE 802.1p tagging makes use of three bits in the packet header, while DiffServ is a new protocol and defines a new DS field, which replaces the eight-bit ToS (Type of Service) field in the IP header. Tagging and Marking In a QoS class, you can configure whether to add or change the DSCP (DiffServ Code Point) value, IEEE 802.1p priority level and VLAN ID number in a matched packet. When the packet passes through a compatible network, the networking device, such as a backbone switch, can provide specific treatment or service based on the tag or marker. Traffic Shaping Bursty traffic may cause network congestion. Traffic shaping regulates packets to be transmitted with a pre-configured data transmission rate using buffers (or queues).

DESCRIPTION Table 62 Management > Bandwidth MGMT > General LABEL QoS QoS State WAN Managed Upstream Bandwidth Select the Enable check box to turn on QoS to improve your network performance. Enter the amount of upstream bandwidth for the WAN interfaces that you want to allocate using QoS. The recommendation is to set this speed to match the interfaces actual transmission speed. For example, set the WAN interfaces speed to 100000 kbps if your Internet connection has an upstream transmission speed of 100 Mbps. LAN Managed Downstream Bandwidth You can set this number higher than the interfaces actual transmission speed. The EMG6765-
Q10A uses up to 95% of the DSL ports actual upstream transmission speed even if you set this number higher than the DSL ports actual transmission speed. You can also set this number lower than the interfaces actual transmission speed. This will cause the EMG6765-Q10A to not use some of the interfaces available bandwidth. If you leave this field blank, the EMG6765-Q10A automatically sets this number to be 95% of the WAN interfaces actual upstream transmission speed. Enter the amount of downstream bandwidth for the LAN interfaces (including WLAN) that you want to allocate using QoS. The recommendation is to set this speed to match the WAN interfaces actual transmission speed. For example, set the LAN managed downstream bandwidth to 100000 kbps if you use a 100 Mbps wired Ethernet WAN connection. You can also set this number lower than the WAN interfaces actual transmission speed. This will cause the EMG6765-Q10A to not use some of the interfaces available bandwidth. If you leave this field blank, the EMG6765-Q10A automatically sets this to the LAN interfaces maximum supported connection speed.

Back Apply Cancel 21.6 Technical Reference The following section contains additional technical information about the EMG6765-Q10A features described in this chapter. IEEE 802.1Q Tag The IEEE 802.1Q standard defines an explicit VLAN tag in the MAC header to identify the VLAN membership of a frame across bridges. A VLAN tag includes the 12-bit VLAN ID and 3-bit user priority. The VLAN ID associates a frame with a specific VLAN and provides the information that devices need to process the frame across the network. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 150 Chapter 21 Bandwidth Management IEEE 802.1p specifies the user priority field and defines up to eight separate traffic types. The following table describes the traffic types defined in the IEEE 802.1d standard (which incorporates the 802.1p). TRAFFIC TYPE Table 67 IEEE 802.1p Priority Level and Traffic Type PRIORITY LEVEL Level 7 Level 6 Level 5 Level 4 Typically used for network control traffic such as router configuration messages. Typically used for voice traffic that is especially sensitive to jitter (jitter is the variations in delay). Typically used for video that consumes high bandwidth and is sensitive to jitter. Typically used for controlled load, latency-sensitive traffic such as SNA (Systems Network Architecture) transactions. Typically used for excellent effort or better than best effort and would include important business traffic that can tolerate some delay. This is for spare bandwidth. This is typically used for non-critical background traffic such as bulk transfers that are allowed but that should not affect other applications and users. Typically used for best-effort traffic. Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 Level 0 DiffServ QoS is used to prioritize source-to-destination traffic flows. All packets in the flow are given the same priority. You can use CoS (class of service) to give different priorities to different packet types. DiffServ (Differentiated Services) is a class of service (CoS) model that marks packets so that they receive specific per-hop treatment at DiffServ-compliant network devices along the route based on the application types and traffic flow. Packets are marked with DiffServ Code Points (DSCPs) indicating the level of service desired. This allows the intermediary DiffServ-compliant network devices to handle the packets differently depending on the code points without the need to negotiate paths or remember state information for every flow. In addition, applications do not have to request a particular service or give advanced notice of where the traffic is going. DSCP and Per-Hop Behavior DiffServ defines a new Differentiated Services (DS) field to replace the Type of Service (TOS) field in the IP header. The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and a 6-bit DSCP field which can define up to 64 service levels. The following figure illustrates the DS field. DSCP is backward compatible with the three precedence bits in the ToS octet so that non-DiffServ compliant, ToS-enabled network device will not conflict with the DSCP mapping. DSCP (6 bits) Unused (2 bits) The DSCP value determines the forwarding behavior, the PHB (Per-Hop Behavior), that each packet gets across the DiffServ network. Based on the marking rule, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different kinds of forwarding. Resources can then be allocated according to the DSCP values and the configured policies. IP Precedence Similar to IEEE 802.1p prioritization at layer-2, you can use IP precedence to prioritize packets in a layer-3 network. IP precedence uses three bits of the eight-bit ToS (Type of Service) field in the IP header. There EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 151 Chapter 21 Bandwidth Management are eight classes of services (ranging from zero to seven) in IP precedence. Zero is the lowest priority level and seven is the highest. Automatic Priority Queue Assignment If you enable QoS on the EMG6765-Q10A, the EMG6765-Q10A can automatically base on the IEEE 802.1p priority level, IP precedence and/or packet length to assign priority to traffic which does not match a class. The following table shows you the internal layer-2 and layer-3 QoS mapping on the EMG6765-Q10A. On the EMG6765-Q10A, traffic assigned to higher priority queues gets through faster while traffic in lower index queues is dropped if the network is congested.

The bucket stores tokens, each of which represents one byte. The algorithm allows bursts of up to b bytes which is also the bucket size, so the bucket can hold up to b tokens. Tokens are generated and added into the bucket at a constant rate. The following shows how tokens work with packets:
A packet can be transmitted if the number of tokens in the bucket is equal to or greater than the size of the packet (in bytes). After a packet is transmitted, a number of tokens corresponding to the packet size is removed from the bucket. If there are no tokens in the bucket, the EMG6765-Q10A stops transmitting until enough tokens are generated. If not enough tokens are available, the EMG6765-Q10A treats the packet in either one of the following ways:
In traffic shaping:
Holds it in the queue until enough tokens are available in the bucket. In traffic policing:
Drops it. Transmits it but adds a DSCP mark. The EMG6765-Q10A may drop these marked packets if the network is overloaded. Configure the bucket size to be equal to or less than the amount of the bandwidth that the interface can support. It does not help if you set it to a bucket size over the interfaces capability. The smaller the bucket size, the lower the data transmission rate and that may cause outgoing packets to be dropped. A larger transmission rate requires a big bucket size. For example, use a bucket size of 10 kbytes to get the transmission rate up to 10 Mbps. Single Rate Three Color Marker The Single Rate Three Color Marker (srTCM, defined in RFC 2697) is a type of traffic policing that identifies packets by comparing them to one user-defined rate, the Committed Information Rate (CIR), and two burst sizes: the Committed Burst Size (CBS) and Excess Burst Size (EBS). The srTCM evaluates incoming packets and marks them with one of three colors which refer to packet loss priority levels. High packet loss priority level is referred to as red, medium is referred to as yellow and low is referred to as green. The srTCM is based on the token bucket filter and has two token buckets (CBS and EBS). Tokens are generated and added into the bucket at a constant rate, called Committed Information Rate (CIR). When the first bucket (CBS) is full, new tokens overflow into the second bucket (EBS). All packets are evaluated against the CBS. If a packet does not exceed the CBS it is marked green. Otherwise it is evaluated against the EBS. If it is below the EBS then it is marked yellow. If it exceeds the EBS then it is marked red. The following shows how tokens work with incoming packets in srTCM:
A packet arrives. The packet is marked green and can be transmitted if the number of tokens in the CBS bucket is equal to or greater than the size of the packet (in bytes). EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 153 Chapter 21 Bandwidth Management After a packet is transmitted, a number of tokens corresponding to the packet size is removed from the CBS bucket. If there are not enough tokens in the CBS bucket, the EMG6765-Q10A checks the EBS bucket. The packet is marked yellow if there are sufficient tokens in the EBS bucket. Otherwise, the packet is marked red. No tokens are removed if the packet is dropped. Two Rate Three Color Marker The Two Rate Three Color Marker (trTCM, defined in RFC 2698) is a type of traffic policing that identifies packets by comparing them to two user-defined rates: the Committed Information Rate (CIR) and the Peak Information Rate (PIR). The CIR specifies the average rate at which packets are admitted to the network. The PIR is greater than or equal to the CIR. CIR and PIR values are based on the guaranteed and maximum bandwidth respectively as negotiated between a service provider and client. The trTCM evaluates incoming packets and marks them with one of three colors which refer to packet loss priority levels. High packet loss priority level is referred to as red, medium is referred to as yellow and low is referred to as green. The trTCM is based on the token bucket filter and has two token buckets (Committed Burst Size (CBS) and Peak Burst Size (PBS)). Tokens are generated and added into the two buckets at the CIR and PIR respectively. All packets are evaluated against the PIR. If a packet exceeds the PIR it is marked red. Otherwise it is evaluated against the CIR. If it exceeds the CIR then it is marked yellow. Finally, if it is below the CIR then it is marked green. The following shows how tokens work with incoming packets in trTCM:
A packet arrives. If the number of tokens in the PBS bucket is less than the size of the packet (in bytes), the packet is marked red and may be dropped regardless of the CBS bucket. No tokens are removed if the packet is dropped. If the PBS bucket has enough tokens, the EMG6765-Q10A checks the CBS bucket. The packet is marked green and can be transmitted if the number of tokens in the CBS bucket is equal to or greater than the size of the packet (in bytes). Otherwise, the packet is marked yellow.

(UPnP) 22.1 Overview This chapter introduces the UPnP feature in the web configurator. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a distributed, open networking standard that uses TCP/IP for simple peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. A UPnP device can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about other devices on the network. In turn, a device can leave a network smoothly and automatically when it is no longer in use. 22.2 What You Need to Know UPnP hardware is identified as an icon in the Network Connections folder (Windows XP). Each UPnP compatible device installed on your network will appear as a separate icon. Selecting the icon of a UPnP device will allow you to access the information and properties of that device. 22.2.1 NAT Traversal UPnP NAT traversal automates the process of allowing an application to operate through NAT. UPnP network devices can automatically configure network addressing, announce their presence in the network to other UPnP devices and enable exchange of simple product and service descriptions. NAT traversal allows the following:
Dynamic port mapping Learning public IP addresses Assigning lease times to mappings Windows Messenger is an example of an application that supports NAT traversal and UPnP. See the NAT chapter for more information on NAT. 22.2.2 Cautions with UPnP The automated nature of NAT traversal applications in establishing their own services and opening firewall ports may present network security issues. Network information and configuration may also be obtained and modified by users in some network environments. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 155 Chapter 22 Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) When a UPnP device joins a network, it announces its presence with a multicast message. For security reasons, the EMG6765-Q10A allows multicast messages on the LAN only. All UPnP-enabled devices may communicate freely with each other without additional configuration. Disable UPnP if this is not your intention. 22.3 UPnP Screen Use this screen to enable UPnP on your EMG6765-Q10A. Click Management > UPnP to display the screen shown next.

Note: The read and write performance may be affected by amount of file-sharing traffic on your network, type of connected USB device and your USB version (1.1 or 2.0). Media Server You can set up your EMG6765-Q10A to act as a media server to provide media (like video) to DLNA-
compliant players, such as Windows Media Player, Zyxel DMAs (Digital Media Adapters), Xboxes or PS3s. The media server and clients must have IP addresses in the same subnet. The EMG6765-Q10A media server enables you to:
Publish all folders for everyone to play media files in the USB storage device connected to the EMG6765-Q10A. Use hardware-based media clients like the DMA-2500 to play the files. Note: Anyone on your network can play the media files in the published folders. No user name and password nor other form of security is required. The following figure is an overview of the EMG6765-Q10As media server feature. DLNA devices A and B can access and play files on a USB device (C) which is connected to the EMG6765-Q10A (D). Figure 96 Media Server Overview EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 161 Chapter 23 USB Media Sharing File-Sharing Server You can also share files on a USB memory stick or hard drive connected to your EMG6765-Q10A with users on your network. The following figure is an overview of the EMG6765-Q10As file-sharing server feature. Computers A and B can access files on a USB device (C) which is connected to the EMG6765-Q10A (D). Figure 97 File Sharing Overview 23.2 What You Can Do Use the DLNA screen to use the EMG6765-Q10A as a media server and allow DLNA-compliant devices to play media files stored in the attached USB device (Section 23.5 on page 164). Use the SAMBA screen to enable file-sharing via the EMG6765-Q10A using Windows Explorer or the workgroup name. This screen also allow you to configure the workgroup name and create user accounts (Section 23.6 on page 164). Use the FTP screen to allow file sharing via the EMG6765-Q10A using FTP and create user accounts
(Section 23.7 on page 166). 23.3 What You Need To Know DLNA The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a group of personal computer and electronics companies that works to make products compatible in a home network. DLNA clients play files stored on DLNA servers. The EMG6765-Q10A can function as a DLNA-compliant media server and stream files to DLNA-
compliant media clients without any configuration. EMG6765-Q10A Users Guide 162 Chapter 23 USB Media Sharing Workgroup name This is the name given to a set of computers that are connected on a network and share resources such as a printer or files. Windows automatically assigns the workgroup name when you set up a network. File Systems A file system is a way of storing and organizing files on your hard drive and storage device. Often different operating systems such as Windows or Linux have different file systems. The file-sharing feature on your EMG6765-Q10A supports New Technology File System (NTFS), File Allocation Table (FAT) and FAT32 file systems. Windows/CIFS Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a standard protocol supported by most operating systems in order to share files across the network. CIFS runs over TCP/IP but uses the SMB (Server Message Block) protocol found in Microsoft Windows for file and printer access; therefore, CIFS will allow all applications, not just Web browsers, to open and share files across the Internet. The EMG6765-Q10A uses Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol for its file sharing functions. CIFS compatible computers can access the USB file storage devices connected to the EMG6765-Q10A. CIFS protocol is supported on Microsoft Windows, Linux Samba and other operating systems (refer to your systems specifications for CIFS compatibility). Samba SMB is a client-server protocol used by Microsoft Windows systems for sharing files, printers, and so on. Samba is a free SMB server that runs on most Unix and Unix-like systems. It provides an implementation of an SMB client and server for use with non-Microsoft operating systems.

Make sure that the keywords that you type are listed in the rules Keyword List. If a keyword that is listed in the Keyword List is not blocked when it is found in a URL, customize the keyword blocking using commands. See the Customizing Keyword Blocking URL Checking section in the IPv6 Firewall chapter. I cannot access the Web Configurator after I switched to AP mode. When you change from router mode to AP mode, your computer must have an IP address in the range between 192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.254. Refer to Appendix B on page 200 for instructions on how to change your computers IP address. What factors may cause intermittent or unstabled wireless connection? How can I solve this problem?
The following factors may cause interference:
Obstacles: walls, ceilings, furniture, and so on. Building Materials: metal doors, aluminum studs. Electrical devices: microwaves, monitors, electric motors, cordless phones, and other wireless devices. To optimize the speed and quality of your wireless connection, you can:
Move your wireless device closer to the AP if the signal strength is low. Reduce wireless interference that may be caused by other wireless networks or surrounding wireless electronics such as cordless phones. Place the AP where there are minimum obstacles (such as walls and ceilings) between the AP and the wireless client. Reduce the number of wireless clients connecting to the same AP simultaneously, or add additional APs if necessary. Try closing some programs that use the Internet, especially peer-to-peer applications. If the wireless client is sending or receiving a lot of information, it may have too many programs open that use the Internet. Position the antennas for best reception. If the AP is placed on a table or floor, point the antennas upwards. If the AP is placed at a high position, point the antennas downwards. Try pointing the antennas in different directions and check which provides the strongest signal to the wireless clients.
