CHAPTER 1 Introduction 1.1 Overview This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the ARMOR Z1. The ARMOR Z1 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/b/g/n/ac compatible devices. The ARMOR Z1 is able to function both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks at the same time. A range of services such as a firewall and content filtering are also available for secure Internet computing. There are two USB 3.0 ports on the side panel of your ARMOR Z1. You can connect USB (version 2.0 or lower) memory sticks, USB hard drives, or USB devices for file sharing. The ARMOR Z1 automatically detects the USB devices. 1.2 Applications Your can have the following networks with the ARMOR Z1:

Wired. You can connect network devices via the Ethernet ports of the ARMOR Z1 so that they can communicate with each other and access the Internet. Wireless. Wireless clients can connect to the ARMOR Z1 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. 1.3 Ways to Manage the ARMOR Z1 Use any of the following methods to manage the ARMOR Z1. 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 ARMOR Z1. Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the ARMOR Z1 using a

(supported) web browser. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 10 Chapter 1 Introduction 1.4 Good Habits for Managing the ARMOR Z1 Do the following things regularly to make the ARMOR Z1 more secure and to manage the ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the ARMOR Z1. You could simply restore your last configuration. 1.5 Resetting the ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the password will be reset to 1234 and the IP address will be reset to 192.168.1.1. 1.5.1 How to Use the RESET Button 1 Make sure the power LED is on. 2 3 Press the RESET button for one to four seconds to restart/reboot the ARMOR Z1. Press the RESET button for longer than five seconds to set the ARMOR Z1 back to its factory-

default configurations. 1.6 The WPS Button Your ARMOR Z1 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) in 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 (

The wizard screen opens. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 18 Chapter 3 eaZy 123 Wizard Figure 5 Detecting your Internet Connection Type Figure 6 eaZy 123 Setup 3.3 Internet Type The ARMOR Z1 offers three WAN selection types. They are Automatic - DHCP, PPPoE or Static. Configure the Internet type settings on your ARMOR Z1 in the first part. The following screen depends on your Internet connection type. Enter the details provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) in the fields (if any). Check with your ISP to make sure you use the correct type. This wizard screen varies according to the connection type that you select. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 19 Chapter 3 eaZy 123 Wizard 3.3.1 WAN Selection Type: Automatic - DHCP Select the Automatic - DHCP option if your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address. Figure 7 WAN Selection Type: Automatic - DHCP 3.3.2 WAN Selection Type: PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) functions as a dial-up connection. PPPoE is an IETF

(Internet Engineering Task Force) standard specifying how a host personal computer interacts with a broadband modem (for example DSL, cable, wireless, etc.) to achieve access to high-speed data networks. For the service provider, PPPoE offers an access and authentication method that works with existing access control systems (for instance, RADIUS). One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let end users 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 specific users. Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both the subscriber and the ISP/carrier, as it requires no specific configuration of the broadband modem at the subscriber's site. By implementing PPPoE directly on the ARMOR Z1 (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the ARMOR Z1 does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LAN's computers will have Internet access. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 20 Chapter 3 eaZy 123 Wizard Figure 8 WAN Selection Type: PPPoE The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 5 WAN Selection Type: PPPoE LABEL WAN Selection DESCRIPTION Select the PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) option for a dial-up connection.

Set Up a Wireless Network Using WPS Connect to ARMOR Z1 Wireless Network without WPS Using Guest SSIDs on the ARMOR Z1 8.2 Set Up a Wireless Network Using WPS This section gives you an example of how to set up wireless network using WPS. This example uses the ARMOR Z1 as the AP and NWD210N as the wireless client which connects to a notebook. Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB adapter or PCI card). There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection via the web configurator or utility. This tutorial shows you how to do both. Push Button Configuration (PBC) - create a secure wireless network simply by pressing a button. See Section 8.2.1 on page 48. This is the easier method. PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless client's PIN

(Personal Identification Number) in the ARMOR Z1s interface. See Section 8.2.2 on page 49. This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the other. 8.2.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC) 1 Make sure that your ARMOR Z1 is turned on. Make sure the WIFI button (at the back panel of the ARMOR Z1) is pushed in, and that the device is placed within range of your notebook. 2 Make sure that you have installed the wireless client (this example uses the NWD210N) driver and utility in your notebook. 3 4 In the wireless client utility, find the WPS settings.

See Section 11.4 on page 93. This allows you to configure multiple independent wireless networks on the ARMOR Z1 as if there were multiple APs (virtual APs). Each guest SSID has its own wireless security type. That is, each SSID on the ARMOR Z1 represents a different access point/wireless network to wireless clients in the network. 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 ARMOR Z1 (such as a printer).

Use these screens to configure your ARMOR Z1 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 42 LAN and WAN 10.2 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 10.4 on page 68). Use the NAT screens to enable NAT, set a default server and change your ARMOR Z1s port forwarding settings and trigger port settings (Section 10.5 on page 77). Use the Dynamic DNS screen to change your ARMOR Z1s DDNS settings (Section 10.6 on page 80). 10.3 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 ARMOR Z1. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 65 Chapter 10 WAN 10.3.1 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 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 ARMOR Z1, which makes it accessible from an outside network. It is used by the ARMOR Z1 to communicate with other devices in other networks. It can be static (fixed) or dynamically assigned by the ISP each time the ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1s 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. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 66 Chapter 10 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 43 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 ARMOR Z1 supports both IGMP version 1 (IGMP-v1) and IGMP version 2 (IGMP-v2). At start up, the ARMOR Z1 queries all directly connected networks to gather group membership. After that, the ARMOR Z1 periodically updates this information. IP multicasting can be enabled/

disabled on the ARMOR Z1 WAN interface in the Web Configurator (WAN). Select None to disable IP multicasting on these interfaces. Auto-IP Change When the ARMOR Z1 gets a WAN IP address or a DNS server IP address which is in the same subnet as the LAN IP address 192.168.1.1, Auto-IP-Change allows the ARMOR Z1 to change its LAN IP address to 10.0.0.1 automatically. If the ARMOR Z1s original LAN IP address is 10.0.0.1 and the WAN IP address is in the same subnet, such as 10.0.0.3, the ARMOR Z1 switches to use 192.168.1.1 as its LAN IP address. Figure 44 Auto-IP-Change Example 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.23 10.0.0.1 ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 67 Chapter 10 WAN Auto-IP-Change only works under the following conditions:

The ARMOR Z1 must be in Router Mode (see Section 15.12 on page 147 for more information) for Auto-IP-Change to become active. The ARMOR Z1 is set to receive a dynamic WAN IP address. 10.4 Internet Connection Screen Use this screen to change your ARMOR Z1s Internet access settings. Click Expert > WAN >

Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh. Apply Cancel ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 72 Chapter 10 WAN 10.4.2 PPPoE Encapsulation The ARMOR Z1 supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). 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 ARMOR Z1 (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the ARMOR Z1 does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LANs computers will have access. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 73 Chapter 10 WAN This screen displays when you select PPPoE encapsulation.

The ARMOR Z1 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 Expert >

Wireless to configure wireless LAN 2.4G or wireless LAN 5G. See the appendices for more detailed information about wireless networks. The following figure provides an example of a wireless network. Figure 50 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 ARMOR Z1 is the AP. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 82 Chapter 11 Wireless LAN 11.1.1 What You Can Do Use the Wireless screen to enable or disable the 2.4GHz or 5GHz wireless LAN, set up wireless security between the ARMOR Z1 and the wireless clients, and make other basic configuration changes (Section 11.2 on page 87). Use the Guest Wireless screen to set up multiple wireless networks on your ARMOR Z1 (Section 11.4 on page 93). Use the MAC Filter screen to allow or deny wireless stations based on their MAC addresses from connecting to the ARMOR Z1 (Section 11.5 on page 95). Use the Advanced screen to allow intra-BSS networking and set the RTS/CTS Threshold (Section 11.6 on page 96). Use the WPS screen to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually (Section 11.7 on page 97). Use the Scheduling screen to set the times your wireless LAN is turned on and off (Section 11.8 on page 99). 11.1.2 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. 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. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 83 Chapter 11 Wireless LAN 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. Encryption Wireless networks can use encryption to protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. Encryption is like a secret code. If you do not know the secret code, you cannot understand the message. The types of encryption you can choose depend on the type of user authentication. (See page 84 for information about this.) Table 26 Types of Encryption for Each Type of Authentication Weakest NO AUTHENTICATION No Security WPA-PSK RADIUS SERVER WPA Strongest WPA2-PSK WPA2 1. 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. 2. Hexadecimal characters are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 84 Chapter 11 Wireless LAN For example, if the wireless network has a RADIUS server, you can choose WPA or WPA2. If users do not log in to the wireless network, you can choose no encryption, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK. Usually, you should set up the strongest encryption that every wireless client in the wireless network supports. For example, suppose the AP does not have a local user database, and you do not have a RADIUS server. Therefore, there is no user authentication. Suppose the wireless network has two wireless clients. Device A only supports WPA, and device B supports WPA and WPA2. Therefore, you should set up WPA or WPA-PSK in the wireless network. Note: It is recommended that wireless networks use WPA-PSK, WPA, or stronger encryption. IEEE 802.1x and WEP encryption are better than none at all, but it is still possible for unauthorized devices to figure out the original information pretty quickly. Note: It is not possible to use WPA-PSK, WPA or stronger encryption with a local user database. In this case, it is better to set up stronger encryption with no authentication than to set up weaker encryption with the local user database. When you select WPA2 or WPA2-PSK in your ARMOR Z1, you can also select an option (WPA/

WPA-PSK Compatible) to support WPA/WPA-PSK as well. In this case, if some wireless clients support WPA and some support WPA2, you should set up WPA2-PSK or WPA2 (depending on the type of wireless network login) and select the WPA/WPA-PSK Compatible option in the ARMOR Z1. Many types of encryption use a key to protect the information in the wireless network. The longer the key, the stronger the encryption. Every wireless client in the wireless network must have the same key. Guest WLAN Guest WLAN allows you to set up a wireless network where users can access to Internet via the ARMOR Z1 (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. Note: Only Router mode supports guest WLAN. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 85 Chapter 11 Wireless LAN Figure 51 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 52 Example: Bandwidth for Different Networks N 600 kbps 100 kbps 300 kbps A WPS WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) is an industry standard specification, defined by the WiFi 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 ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 86 Chapter 11 Wireless LAN Number) in the devices. 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 8.2 on page 48. 11.2 Wireless Screen Use this screen to configure the SSID and wireless security of the ARMOR Z1s default wireless LAN. Note: If you are configuring the ARMOR Z1 from a computer connected to the wireless LAN and you change the ARMOR Z1s SSID, channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm.

Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station cannot obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool. Hide SSID Channel Selection Select a channel from the drop-down list box. The options vary depending on the frequency band and the country you are in. This option is only available if Auto Channel Selection is disabled. This displays the channel the ARMOR Z1 is currently using. Select the wireless channel width used by ARMOR Z1. A standard 20MHz 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). Because not all devices support 40 MHz channels, select Auto 20/40MHz to allow the ARMOR Z1 to adjust the channel bandwidth automatically. 40MHz (channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to increase throughput. The wireless clients must also support 40 MHz. It is often better to use the 20 MHz setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal. Select 20MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.

ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 105 CHAPTER 13 Applications 13.1 Overview This chapter shows you how to configure parental control, bandwidth management, USB media sharing, UPnP and file sharing. 13.1.1 What You Can Do Use the Parental Control screens to enable parental control, configure the parental control rules and schedules, and send e-mail notifications. (Section 13.2 on page 108). Use the Bandwidth Management screen to configure bandwidth management and the device priority (Section 13.3 on page 114). Use the USB Media Sharing screen to use the ARMOR Z1 as a media server and allow DLNA-

compliant devices to play media files stored in the attached USB device (Section 13.4 on page 117). Use the UPnP screen to enable UPnP on your ARMOR Z1 (Section 13.5 on page 119). Use the File Sharing screen to allow file sharing via the ARMOR Z1 using Windows Explorer, the workgroup name or FTP (Section 13.6 on page 120). Use the One Connect screen to enable or disable Wi-Fi auto-configuration (Section 13.7 on page 127). 13.1.2 What You Need To Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. Keyword Blocking URL Checking The ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 106 Chapter 13 Applications 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 ARMOR Z1 can function as a DLNA-compliant media server and stream files to DLNA-compliant media clients without any configuration. 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 ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1. 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. File Transfer Protocol This is a method of transferring data from one computer to another over a network such as the Internet. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 107 Chapter 13 Applications Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) 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. 13.1.3 Before You Begin 1 2 Make sure the ARMOR Z1 is connected to your network and turned on. Connect the USB device to one of the ARMOR Z1s USB ports. The ARMOR Z1 detects the USB device and makes its contents available for browsing. If you are connecting a USB hard drive that comes with an external power supply, make sure it is connected to an appropriate power source that is on. Note: If your USB device cannot be detected by the ARMOR Z1, see the troubleshooting for suggestions. 13.2 Parental Control Parental Control allows you to block specific URLs.

Streamboost is smart Quality of Service (QoS). Streamboost detects traffic flow and applies traffic shaping policies automatically. It gives each device and each application priority and provides the exact amount of bandwidth they need at a given time. This helps free up bandwidth for other applications or connected devices. If there is not enough bandwidth for optimal performance, Streamboost makes sure the application or device has the minimum acceptable bandwidth which is determined according to StreamBoosts cloud-based database. Real-time application traffic (such as on-line games or communications) and video/audio streaming are given the highest priority. Downloads or torrent files are classified as best effort and placed lower than general network traffic (general browsing). In the figure below, the StreamBoost-enabled ARMOR Z1 differentiates incoming traffic flow going from the LAN device (A) or wireless device (B) to the Internet. It shapes traffic and gives priority and allocates bandwidth according to traffic types. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 114 Chapter 13 Applications Figure 73 StreamBoost Management Example B A 13.3.1 Bandwidth Screen Use this screen to configure the maximum allowable bandwidth on the ARMOR Z1 and allow the ARMOR Z1 to get StreamBoost database updates automatically.

ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 127 Chapter 13 Applications Customizing Keyword Blocking URL Checking You can use commands to set how much of a websites URL the content filter is to check for keyword blocking. See the appendices for information on how to access and use the command interpreter. Domain Name or IP Address URL Checking By default, the ARMOR Z1 checks the URLs domain name or IP address when performing keyword blocking. This means that the ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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. 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. Cautions with UPnP ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 128 Chapter 13 Applications 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. When a UPnP device joins a network, it announces its presence with a multicast message. For security reasons, the ARMOR Z1 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. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 129 CHAPTER 14 Security 14.1 Overview Use these screens to enable and configure the firewall that protects your ARMOR Z1 and your LAN from unwanted or malicious traffic. 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 84 Default Firewall Action LAN WAN A 1 2 3 4 14.1.1 What You Can Do Use the IPv4 Firewall screen to enable or disable the ARMOR Z1s IPv4 firewall (Section 14.2 on page 131). Use the IPv6 Firewall screen to enable or disable the ARMOR Z1s IPv6 firewall (Section 14.3 on page 133). 14.1.2 What You Need To Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 130 Chapter 14 Security About the ARMOR Z1 Firewall The ARMOR Z1s 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 IPv4 Firewall or IPv6 Firewall tab under Security and then click the Enable Firewall check box). The ARMOR Z1's purpose is to allow a private Local Area Network (LAN) to be securely connected to the Internet. The ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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 ARMOR Z1 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 Change the default password via Web Configurator. 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. 1 2 3 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. 14.2 IPv4 Firewall Screen Use this screen to enable or disable the ARMOR Z1s IPv4 firewall, and set up firewall logs.

Inspect your cables for damage. Contact the vendor to replace any damaged cables. 4 Disconnect and re-connect the power adaptor to the ARMOR Z1. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 150 Chapter 16 Troubleshooting 5 If the problem continues, contact the vendor. 16.3 ARMOR Z1 Access and Login I dont know the IP address of my ARMOR Z1. 6 7 8 9 The default IP address of the ARMOR Z1 in Router Mode is 192.168.1.1. If the ARMOR Z1 obtains a WAN IP address in the same subnet as the LAN IP address 192.168.1.1, the default LAN IP address will be changed to 10.0.0.1 automatically. See Auto-IP Change on page 67 for more information. The default IP address of the ARMOR Z1 in Access Point Mode is 192.168.1.2. If you changed the IP address and have forgotten it, you might get the IP address of the ARMOR Z1 in Router Mode by looking up the IP address of the default gateway for your computer. To do this in most Windows computers, click Start > Run, enter cmd, and then enter ipconfig. The IP address of the Default Gateway might be the IP address of the ARMOR Z1 (it depends on the network), so enter this IP address in your Internet browser. If your ARMOR Z1 in Access Point Mode is a DHCP client, you can find your IP address from the DHCP server. This information is only available from the DHCP server which allocates IP addresses on your network. Find this information directly from the DHCP server or contact your system administrator for more information. Reset your ARMOR Z1 to change all settings back to their default. This means your current settings are lost. See Section 16.5 on page 154 in the Troubleshooting for information on resetting your ARMOR Z1. I forgot the password. 1 2 The default password is 1234. If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 16.5 on page 154. I cannot see or access the Login screen in the Web Configurator. 1 Make sure you are using the correct IP address. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 151 Chapter 16 Troubleshooting 2 3 The default IP address of the ARMOR Z1 in Router Mode is 192.168.1.1. If the ARMOR Z1 obtains a WAN IP address in the same subnet as the LAN IP address 192.168.1.1, the default LAN IP address will be changed to 10.0.0.1 automatically. See Auto-IP Change on page 67 for more information. The default IP address of the ARMOR Z1 in Access Point Mode is 192.168.1.2. If you changed the IP address (Section 12.4 on page 102), use the new IP address. If you changed the IP address and have forgotten it, see the troubleshooting suggestions for I dont know the IP address of my ARMOR Z1. Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide. 4 Make sure your Internet browser does not block pop-up windows and has JavaScript and Java enabled. See Appendix A on page 157. 5 Make sure your computer is in the same subnet as the ARMOR Z1. (If you know that there are routers between your computer and the ARMOR Z1, skip this step.) If there is a DHCP server on your network, make sure your computer is using a dynamic IP address. See Section 12.4 on page 102. If there is no DHCP server on your network, make sure your computers IP address is in the same subnet as the ARMOR Z1. See Section 12.4 on page 102. 6 7 Reset the device to its factory defaults, and try to access the ARMOR Z1 with the default IP address. See Section 1.5 on page 11. If the problem continues, contact the network administrator or vendor, or try one of the advanced suggestions. Advanced Suggestions Try to access the ARMOR Z1 using another service, such as Telnet. If you can access the ARMOR Z1, check the remote management settings and firewall rules to find out why the ARMOR Z1 does not respond to HTTP. If your computer is connected to the WAN port or is connected wirelessly, use a computer that is connected to a LAN/ETHERNET port. I can see the Login screen, but I cannot log in to the ARMOR Z1. 1 Make sure you have entered the password correctly. The default password is 1234. This field is case-sensitive, so make sure [Caps Lock] is not on. 2 This can happen when you fail to log out properly from your last session. Try logging in again after 5 minutes. 3 Disconnect and re-connect the power adaptor or cord to the ARMOR Z1. 4 If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 16.5 on page 154. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 152 Chapter 16 Troubleshooting 16.4 Internet Access I cannot access the Internet. 1 Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide. 2 Go to Expert > Maintenance > Operation Mode. Check your System Operation Mode setting. If the ARMOR Z1 is in Router Mode, make sure the WAN port is connected to a broadband modem or router with Internet access. Your computer and the ARMOR Z1 should be in the same subnet. If the ARMOR Z1 is in Access Point Mode, make sure the WAN port is connected to a broadband modem or router with Internet access and your computer is set to obtain an dynamic IP address. 3 4 If the ARMOR Z1 is in Router Mode, make sure you entered your ISP account information correctly in the wizard or the WAN screen. These fields are case-sensitive, so make sure [Caps Lock] is not on. If you are trying to access the Internet wirelessly, make sure the wireless settings in the wireless client are the same as the settings in the AP. 5 Disconnect all the cables from your device, and follow the directions in the Quick Start Guide again. 6 If the problem continues, contact your ISP. I cannot access the Internet anymore. I had access to the Internet (with the ARMOR Z1), but my Internet connection is not available anymore. 1 2 3 Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide and Section 1.7 on page 12. Reboot the ARMOR Z1. If the problem continues, contact your ISP. The Internet connection is slow or intermittent. 1 There might be a lot of traffic on the network. Look at the LEDs, and check Section 1.7 on page 12. If the ARMOR Z1 is sending or receiving a lot of information, try closing some programs that use the Internet, especially peer-to-peer applications. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 153 Chapter 16 Troubleshooting 2 3 4 Check the signal strength. If the signal strength is low, try moving the ARMOR Z1 closer to the AP if possible, and look around to see if there are any devices that might be interfering with the wireless network (for example, microwaves, other wireless networks, and so on). Reboot the ARMOR Z1. If the problem continues, contact the network administrator or vendor, or try one of the advanced suggestions. Advanced Suggestion Check the settings for QoS. If it is disabled, you might consider activating it. 16.5 Resetting the ARMOR Z1 to Its Factory Defaults If you reset the ARMOR Z1, you lose all of the changes you have made. The ARMOR Z1 re-loads its default settings, and the password resets to 1234. You have to make all of your changes again. You will lose all of your changes when you push the RESET button. To reset the ARMOR Z1:

1 Make sure the power LED is on. 2 3 Press the RESET button for one to four seconds to restart/reboot the ARMOR Z1. Press the RESET button for longer than five seconds to set the ARMOR Z1 back to its factory-

default configurations. If the ARMOR Z1 restarts automatically, wait for the ARMOR Z1 to finish restarting, and log in to the Web Configurator. The password is 1234. If the ARMOR Z1 does not restart automatically, disconnect and reconnect the ARMOR Z1s power. Then, follow the directions above again. 16.6 Wireless Connections I cannot access the ARMOR Z1 or ping any computer from the WLAN. 1 Make sure the wireless LAN is enabled on the ARMOR Z1. 2 Make sure the wireless adapter on your computer is working properly. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 154 Chapter 16 Troubleshooting 3 Make sure the wireless adapter installed on your computer is IEEE 802.11 compatible and supports the same wireless standard as the ARMOR Z1. 4 Make sure your computer (with a wireless adapter installed) is within the transmission range of the ARMOR Z1. 5 Check that both the ARMOR Z1 and the wireless adapter on your computer are using the same wireless and wireless security settings. 6 Make sure traffic between the WLAN and the LAN is not blocked by the firewall on the ARMOR Z1. 7 Make sure you allow the ARMOR Z1 to be remotely accessed through the WLAN interface. Check your remote management settings. See the chapter on Wireless LAN in the Users Guide for more information. I set up URL keyword blocking, but I can still access a website that should be blocked. Make sure that you enable parental control in the Parental Control screen, set up rules and turn on the rules. 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 Keyword Blocking URL Checking section in the Applications 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 166 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. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 155 Chapter 16 Troubleshooting 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. 16.7 USB Device Problems I cannot access or see a USB device that is connected to the ARMOR Z1. 1 Disconnect the problematic USB device, then reconnect it to the ARMOR Z1. 2 3 4 5 6 Ensure that the USB device has power. Check your cable connections. Restart the ARMOR Z1 by disconnecting the power and then reconnecting it. If the USB device requires a special driver, install the driver from the installation disc that came with the device. After driver installation, reconnect the USB device to the ARMOR Z1 and try to connect to it again with your computer. If the problem persists, contact your vendor. What kind of USB devices do the ARMOR Z1 support?

1 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 ARMOR Z1. ARMOR Z1 Users Guide 156
