Preface
Vigor2820 series is an ADSL and broadband router with WAN interface. It provides policy-based load-balance, fail-over and BOD (Bandwidth on Demand), also it integrates IP layer QoS, NAT session/bandwidth management to help users control works well with large bandwidth. By adopting hardware-based VPN platform and hardware encryption of AES/DES/3DS, the router increases the performance of VPN greatly, and offers several protocols (such as IPSec/PPTP/L2TP) with up to 32 VPN tunnels. The object-based design used in SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall allows users to set firewall policy with ease. CSM (Content Security Management) provides users control and management in IM (Instant Messenger) and P2P (Peer to Peer) more efficiency than before. By the way, DoS/DDoS prevention and URL/Web content filter strengthen the security outside and control inside. Vigor2820 S series models support two ISDN ports. Phone S0 port is dedicated for ISDN phone and ISDN/Phone S0 port is configurable for ISDN line and phone if required. It can support multiple SIP registrars with high flexible configuration and call handling options. Object-based firewall is flexible and allows your network be safe. In addition, through VoIP function, the communication fee for you and remote people can be reduced.
1.1 Web Configuration Buttons Explanation

Several main buttons appeared on the web pages are defined as the following: Save and apply current settings. Cancel current settings and recover to the previous saved settings. Clear all the selections and parameters settings, including selection from drop-down list. All the values must be reset with factory default settings. Add new settings for specified item. Edit the settings for the selected item. Delete the selected item with the corresponding settings. Note: For the other buttons shown on the web pages, please refer to Chapter 4 for detailed explanation.
1.2 LED Indicators and Connectors

Before you use the Vigor router, please get acquainted with the LED indicators and connectors first. The displays of LED indicators and connectors for the routers are different slightly. The following sections will introduce them respectively. If the model of router you have does not support ISDN and/or VoIP function, simply ignore the relational description.
Definitions for ISDN Ports

Below shows the names that displayed on front panel of the device and the WEB UI of this device. ISDN TE (Terminal Equipment) means an interface for transmitting analog signal through Internet between Switching and router. Such interface is also named with ISDN S0 extern in Germany. ISDN NT (Network Terminator) is a port that used to connect general phone. Such interface is also named with ISDN S0 intern in Germany. The Phone S0 port is fixed to connect phone forever and the LED on the connecter will light orange always. However ISDN/Phone S0 port on this device is configurable for connecting phone or accessing Internet according to the settings that you adjust on WEB UI (please refer to VoIP>>Phone Setting for detailed information). Warning: When the orange LED lights (means ISDN NT mode), the ISDN port can be used to connect phone only. Wrong ISDN connection might cause severe damage on your device.

3.1.1 Basics of Internet Protocol (IP) Network

IP means Internet Protocol. Every device in an IP-based Network including routers, print server, and host PCs, needs an IP address to identify its location on the network. To avoid address conflicts, IP addresses are publicly registered with the Network Information Centre (NIC). Having a unique IP address is mandatory for those devices participated in the public network but not in the private TCP/IP local area networks (LANs), such as host PCs under the management of a router since they do not need to be accessed by the public. Hence, the NIC has reserved certain addresses that will never be registered publicly. These are known as private IP addresses, and are listed in the following ranges:
From 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 From 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 From 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 What are Public IP Address and Private IP Address
As the router plays a role to manage and further protect its LAN, it interconnects groups of host PCs. Each of them has a private IP address assigned by the built-in DHCP server of the Vigor router. The router itself will also use the default private IP address: 192.168.1.1 to communicate with the local hosts. Meanwhile, Vigor router will communicate with other network devices through a public IP address. When the data flow passing through, the Network Address Translation (NAT) function of the router will dedicate to translate public/private addresses, and the packets will be delivered to the correct host PC in the local area network. Thus, all the host PCs can share a common Internet connection.
Get Your Public IP Address from ISP

In ADSL deployment, the PPP (Point to Point)-style authentication and authorization is required for bridging customer premises equipment (CPE). Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) connects a network of hosts via an access device to a remote access concentrator or aggregation concentrator. This implementation provides users with significant ease of use. Meanwhile it provides access control, billing, and type of service according to user requirement. When a router begins to connect to your ISP, a serial of discovery process will occur to ask for a connection. Then a session will be created. Your user ID and password is authenticated via PAP or CHAP with RADIUS authentication system. And your IP address, DNS server, and other related information will usually be assigned by your ISP.
35
3.1.2 Network Connection by 3G USB Modem

For 3G mobile communication through Access Point is popular more and more, Vigor2820 adds the function of 3G network connection for such purpose. By connecting 3G USB Modem to the USB port of Vigor2820, it can support HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE/GPRS/GSM and the future 3G standard (HSUPA, etc). Vigor2820 with 3G USB Modem allows you to receive 3G signals at any place such as your car or certain location holding outdoor activity and share the bandwidth for using by more people. Users can use four LAN ports on the router to access Internet. Also, they can access Internet via 802.11n wireless function of Vigor2820n, and enjoy the powerful firewall, bandwidth management, VPN, VoIP features of Vigor2820 series.
After connecting into the router, 3G USB Modem will be regarded as the second WAN port. However, the original Ethernet WAN1 still can be used and Load-Balance can be done in the router. Besides, 3G USB Modem in WAN2 also can be used as backup device. Therefore, when WAN1 is not available, the router will use 3.5G for supporting automatically. The supported 3G USB Modem will be listed on Draytek web site. Please visit www.draytek.com for more detailed information. Below shows the menu items for Internet Access.
3.1.3 General Setup

This section will introduce some general settings of Internet and explain the connection modes for WAN1 and WAN2 in details. This router supports dual WAN function. It allows users to access Internet and combine the bandwidth of the dual WAN to speed up the transmission through the network. Each WAN port can connect to different ISPs, Even if the ISPs use different technology to provide telecommunication service (such as DSL, Cable modem, etc.). If any connection problem occurred on one of the ISP connections, all the traffic will be guided and switched to the normal communication port for proper operation. Please configure WAN1 and WAN2 settings. This webpage allows you to set general setup for WAN1 and WAN respectively. Note: In default, WAN1 and WAN2 are enabled.

3.2 LAN
Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design of network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP.
3.2.1 Basics of LAN

The most generic function of Vigor router is NAT. It creates a private subnet of your own. As mentioned previously, the router will talk to other public hosts on the Internet by using public IP address and talking to local hosts by using its private IP address. What NAT does is to translate the packets from public IP address to private IP address to forward the right packets to the right host and vice versa. Besides, Vigor router has a built-in DHCP server that assigns private IP address to each local host. See the following diagram for a briefly understanding.
In some special case, you may have a public IP subnet from your ISP such as 220.135.240.0/24. This means that you can set up a public subnet or call second subnet that each host is equipped with a public IP address. As a part of the public subnet, the Vigor router will serve for IP routing to help hosts in the public subnet to communicate with other public hosts or servers outside. Therefore, the router should be set as the gateway for public hosts.
59
What is Routing Information Protocol (RIP)

Vigor router will exchange routing information with neighboring routers using the RIP to accomplish IP routing. This allows users to change the information of the router such as IP address and the routers will automatically inform for each other.
What is Static Route

When you have several subnets in your LAN, sometimes a more effective and quicker way for connection is the Static routes function rather than other method. You may simply set rules to forward data from one specified subnet to another specified subnet without the presence of RIP.
What are Virtual LANs

You can group local hosts by physical ports and create up to 4 virtual LANs. To manage the communication between different groups, please set up rules in Virtual LAN (VLAN) function and the rate of each.

3.2.2 General Setup

This page provides you the general settings for LAN. Click LAN to open the LAN settings page and choose General Setup.
1st IP Address 1st Subnet Mask For IP Routing Usage 2 IP Address 2nd Subnet Mask 2nd DHCP Server
nd
Type in private IP address for connecting to a local private network (Default: 192.168.1.1). Type in an address code that determines the size of the network. (Default: 255.255.255.0/ 24) Click Enable to invoke this function. The default setting is Disable. Type in secondary IP address for connecting to a subnet. (Default: 192.168.2.1/ 24) An address code that determines the size of the network. (Default: 255.255.255.0/ 24) You can configure the router to serve as a DHCP server for the 2nd subnet.
Start IP Address: Enter a value of the IP address pool for the DHCP
61
server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 2nd IP address of your router is 220.135.240.1, the starting IP address must be 220.135.240.2 or greater, but smaller than 220.135.240.254. IP Pool Counts: Enter the number of IP addresses in the pool. The maximum is 10. For example, if you type 3 and the 2nd IP address of your router is 220.135.240.1, the range of IP address by the DHCP server will be from 220.135.240.2 to 220.135.240.11. MAC Address: Enter the MAC Address of the host one by one and click Add to create a list of hosts to be assigned, deleted or edited IP address from above pool. Set a list of MAC Address for 2nd DHCP server will help router to assign the correct IP address of the correct subnet to the correct host. So those hosts in 2nd subnet wont get an IP address belonging to 1st subnet. RIP Protocol Control Disable deactivates the RIP protocol. It will lead to a stoppage of the exchange of routing information between routers. (Default)
1st Subnet - Select the router to change the RIP information of the 1st subnet with neighboring routers. 2nd Subnet - Select the router to change the RIP information of the 2nd subnet with neighboring routers. DHCP Server Configuration DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The router by factory default acts a DHCP server for your network so it automatically dispatch related IP settings to any local user configured as a DHCP client. It is highly recommended that you leave the router enabled as a DHCP server if you do not have a DHCP server for your network. If you want to use another DHCP server in the network other than the Vigor Routers, you can let Relay Agent help you to redirect the DHCP request to the specified location. Enable Server - Let the router assign IP address to every host in the LAN. Disable Server Let you manually assign IP address to every host in the LAN. Relay Agent (1st subnet/2nd subnet) Specify which subnet that DHCP server is located the relay agent should redirect the DHCP request to. Start IP Address - Enter a value of the IP address pool for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 1st IP address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting IP address must be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254. IP Pool Counts - Enter the maximum number of PCs that you want the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. The default is 50 and the maximum is 253. Gateway IP Address - Enter a value of the gateway IP address for the DHCP server. The value is usually as same as the 1st IP address of the router, which means the router is the default gateway. DHCP Server IP Address for Relay Agent - Set the IP address of
62
the DHCP server you are going to use so the Relay Agent can help to forward the DHCP request to the DHCP server. DNS Server Configuration DNS stands for Domain Name System. Every Internet host must have a unique IP address, also they may have a human-friendly, easy to remember name such as www.yahoo.com. The DNS server converts the user-friendly name into its equivalent IP address. Force DNS manual setting - Force Vigor router to use DNS servers in this page instead of DNS servers given by the Internet Access server (PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP or DHCP server). Primary IP Address -You must specify a DNS server IP address here because your ISP should provide you with usually more than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the router will automatically apply default DNS Server IP address: 194.109.6.66 to this field. Secondary IP Address - You can specify secondary DNS server IP address here because your ISP often provides you more than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the router will automatically apply default secondary DNS Server IP address: 194.98.0.1 to this field. The default DNS Server IP address can be found via Online Status:
If both the Primary IP and Secondary IP Address fields are left empty, the router will assign its own IP address to local users as a DNS proxy server and maintain a DNS cache. If the IP address of a domain name is already in the DNS cache, the router will resolve the domain name immediately. Otherwise, the router forwards the DNS query packet to the external DNS server by establishing a WAN (e.g. DSL/Cable) connection. There are two common scenarios of LAN settings that stated in Chapter 4. For the configuration examples, please refer to that chapter to get more information for your necessity.
3.2.3 Static Route

Go to LAN to open setting page and choose Static Route.

Add Static Routes to Private and Public Networks

Here is an example of setting Static Route in Main Router so that user A and B locating in different subnet can talk to each other via the router. Assuming the Internet access has been configured and the router works properly: use the Main Router to surf the Internet. create a private subnet 192.168.10.0 using an internal Router A (192.168.1.2) create a public subnet 211.100.88.0 via an internal Router B (192.168.1.3). have set Main Router 192.168.1.1 as the default gateway for the Router A 192.168.1.2. Before setting Static Route, user A cannot talk to user B for Router A can only forward recognized packets to its default gateway Main Router.
1.
Go to LAN page and click General Setup, select 1st Subnet as the RIP Protocol Control. Then click the OK button. Note: There are two reasons that we have to apply RIP Protocol Control on 1st Subnet. The first is that the LAN interface can exchange RIP packets with the neighboring routers via the 1st subnet (192.168.1.0/24). The second is that those hosts on the internal private subnets (ex. 192.168.10.0/24) can access the Internet via
64
the router, and continuously exchange of IP routing information with different subnets. 2. Click the LAN - Static Route and click on the Index Number 1. Check the Enable box. Please add a static route as shown below, which regulates all packets destined to 192.168.10.0 will be forwarded to 192.168.1.2. Click OK.
3.
Return to Static Route Setup page. Click on another Index Number to add another static route as show below, which regulates all packets destined to 211.100.88.0 will be forwarded to 192.168.1.3.

3.2.5 Bind IP to MAC

This function is used to bind the IP and MAC address in LAN to have a strengthening control in network. When this function is enabled, all the assigned IP and MAC address binding together cannot be changed. If you modified the binding IP or MAC address, it might cause you not access into the Internet. Click LAN and click Bind IP to MAC to open the setup page.

Click this radio button to invoke this function. However, IP/MAC which is not listed in IP Bind List also can connect to Internet. Click this radio button to disable this function. All the settings on this page will be invalid.
Strict Bind ARP Table
Click this radio button to block the connection of the IP/MAC which is not listed in IP Bind List. This table is the LAN ARP table of this router. The information for IP and MAC will be displayed in this field. Each pair of IP and MAC address listed in ARP table can be selected and added to IP Bind List by clicking Add below. IP Address Type the IP address that will be used for the specified MAC address. Mac Address Type the MAC address that is used to bind with the assigned IP address. It is used to refresh the ARP table. When there is one new PC added to the LAN, you can click this link to obtain the newly ARP table information. It displays a list for the IP bind to MAC information. It allows you to add the one you choose from the ARP table or the IP/MAC address typed in Add and Edit to the table of IP Bind List. It allows you to edit and modify the selected IP address and MAC address that you create before. You can remove any item listed in IP Bind List. Simply click and select the one, and click Remove. The selected item will be removed from the IP Bind List.

Note: Before you select Strict Bind, you have to bind one set of IP/MAC address for one PC. If not, no one of the PCs can access into Internet. And the web configurator of the router might not be accessed.
3.3 NAT
Usually, the router serves as an NAT (Network Address Translation) router. NAT is a mechanism that one or more private IP addresses can be mapped into a single public one. Public IP address is usually assigned by your ISP, for which you may get charged. Private IP addresses are recognized only among internal hosts. When the outgoing packets destined to some public server on the Internet reach the NAT router, the router will change its source address into the public IP address of the router, select the available public port, and then forward it. At the same time, the router shall list an entry in a table to memorize this address/port-mapping relationship. When the public server response, the incoming traffic, of course, is destined to the routers public IP address and the router will do the inversion based on its table. Therefore, the internal host can communicate with external host smoothly. The benefit of the NAT includes: Save cost on applying public IP address and apply efficient usage of IP address. NAT allows the internal IP addresses of local hosts to be translated into one public IP address, thus you can have only one IP address on behalf of the entire internal hosts. Enhance security of the internal network by obscuring the IP address. There are many attacks aiming victims based on the IP address. Since the attacker cannot be aware of any private IP addresses, the NAT function can protect the internal network.
68
On NAT page, you will see the private IP address defined in RFC-1918. Usually we use the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet for the router. As stated before, the NAT facility can map one or more IP addresses and/or service ports into different specified services. In other words, the NAT function can be achieved by using port mapping methods. Below shows the menu items for NAT.
3.3.1 Port Redirection

Port Redirection is usually set up for server related service inside the local network (LAN), such as web servers, FTP servers, E-mail servers etc. Most of the case, you need a public IP address for each server and this public IP address/domain name are recognized by all users. Since the server is actually located inside the LAN, the network well protected by NAT of the router, and identified by its private IP address/port, the goal of Port Redirection function is to forward all access request with public IP address from external users to the mapping private IP address/port of the server.
The port redirection can only apply to incoming traffic. To use this function, please go to NAT page and choose Port Redirection web page. The Port Redirection Table provides 20 port-mapping entries for the internal hosts.
69
Press any number under Index to access into next page for configuring port redirection.
Enable Mode
Check this box to enable such port redirection setting. Two options (Single and Range) are provided here for you to choose. To set a range for the specific service, select Range. In Range mode, if the public port (start port and end port) and the starting IP of private IP had been entered, the system will calculate and display the ending IP of private IP automatically. Enter the description of the specific network service. Select the transport layer protocol (TCP or UDP). Select the WAN IP used for port redirection. There are eight WAN IP alias that can be selected and used for port redirection. The default setting is All which means all the incoming data from any port will be redirected to specified range of IP address and port. Specify which port can be redirected to the specified Private IP and Port of the internal host. If you choose Range as the port redirection mode, you will see two boxes on this field. Simply type the required number on the first box. The second one will be assigned automatically later.
70
Service Name Protocol WAN IP
Public Port
Private IP
Specify the private IP address of the internal host providing the service. If you choose Range as the port redirection mode, you will see two boxes on this field. Type a complete IP address in the first box (as the starting point) and the fourth digits in the second box (as the end point). Specify the private port number of the service offered by the internal host. Check this box to activate the port-mapping entry you have defined.
Private Port Active
Note that the router has its own built-in services (servers) such as Telnet, HTTP and FTP etc. Since the common port numbers of these services (servers) are all the same, you may need to reset the router in order to avoid confliction. For example, the built-in web configurator in the router is with default port 80, which may conflict with the web server in the local network, http://192.168.1.13:80. Therefore, you need to change the routers http port to any one other than the default port 80 to avoid conflict, such as 8080. This can be set in the System Maintenance >>Management Setup. You then will access the admin screen of by suffixing the IP address with 8080, e.g., http://192.168.1.1:8080 instead of port 80.
3.3.2 DMZ Host

As mentioned above, Port Redirection can redirect incoming TCP/UDP or other traffic on particular ports to the specific private IP address/port of host in the LAN. However, other IP protocols, for example Protocols 50 (ESP) and 51 (AH), do not travel on a fixed port. Vigor router provides a facility DMZ Host that maps ALL unsolicited data on any protocol to a single host in the LAN. Regular web surfing and other such Internet activities from other clients will continue to work without inappropriate interruption. DMZ Host allows a defined internal user to be totally exposed to the Internet, which usually helps some special applications such as Netmeeting or Internet Games etc.
71
The inherent security properties of NAT are somewhat bypassed if you set up DMZ host. We suggest you to add additional filter rules or a secondary firewall. Click DMZ Host to open the following page:
If you previously have set up WAN Alias for PPPoE/PPPoA or MPoA mode, you will find them in Aux. WAN IP for your selection.

3.4 Firewall
3.4.1 Basics for Firewall
While the broadband users demand more bandwidth for multimedia, interactive applications, or distance learning, security has been always the most concerned. The firewall of the Vigor router helps to protect your local network against attack from unauthorized outsiders. It also restricts users in the local network from accessing the Internet. Furthermore, it can filter out specific packets that trigger the router to build an unwanted outgoing connection.
Firewall Facilities
The users on the LAN are provided with secured protection by the following firewall facilities: User-configurable IP filter (Call Filter/ Data Filter). Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI): tracks packets and denies unsolicited incoming data Selectable Denial of Service (DoS) /Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks protection
IP Filters
Depending on whether there is an existing Internet connection, or in other words the WAN link status is up or down, the IP filter architecture categorizes traffic into two: Call Filter and Data Filter. Call Filter - When there is no existing Internet connection, Call Filter is applied to all traffic, all of which should be outgoing. It will check packets according to the filter rules. If legal, the packet will pass. Then the router shall initiate a call to build the Internet connection and send the packet to Internet. Data Filter - When there is an existing Internet connection, Data Filter is applied to incoming and outgoing traffic. It will check packets according to the filter rules. If legal, the packet will pass the router. The following illustrations are flow charts explaining how router will treat incoming traffic and outgoing traffic respectively.
76
Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI)

Stateful inspection is a firewall architecture that works at the network layer. Unlike legacy static packet filtering, which examines a packet based on the information in its header, stateful inspection builds up a state machine to track each connection traversing all interfaces of the firewall and makes sure they are valid. The stateful firewall of Vigor router not just examine the header information also monitor the state of the connection.
Denial of Service (DoS) Defense

The DoS Defense functionality helps you to detect and mitigate the DoS attack. The attacks are usually categorized into two types, the flooding-type attacks and the vulnerability attacks. The flooding-type attacks will attempt to exhaust all your system's resource while the vulnerability attacks will try to paralyze the system by offending the vulnerabilities of the protocol or operation system. The DoS Defense function enables the Vigor router to inspect every incoming packet based on the attack signature database. Any malicious packet that might duplicate itself to paralyze the host in the secure LAN will be strictly blocked and a Syslog message will be sent as warning, if you set up Syslog server. Also the Vigor router monitors the traffic. Any abnormal traffic flow violating the pre-defined parameter, such as the number of thresholds, is identified as an attack and the Vigor router will activate its defense mechanism to mitigate in a real-time manner. The below shows the attack types that DoS/DDoS defense function can detect:
1. SYN flood attack 2. UDP flood attack 3. ICMP flood attack 4. Port Scan attack 5. IP options 6. Land attack 7. Smurf attack 8. Trace route 9. SYN fragment 10. Fraggle attack 11. TCP flag scan 12. Tear drop attack 13. Ping of Death attack 14. ICMP fragment 15. Unknown protocol
Below shows the menu items for Firewall.

3.4.4 DoS Defense

As a sub-functionality of IP Filter/Firewall, there are 15 types of detect/ defense function in the DoS Defense setup. The DoS Defense functionality is disabled for default. Click Firewall and click DoS Defense to open the setup page.
Enable Dos Defense Enable SYN flood defense
Check the box to activate the DoS Defense Functionality. Check the box to activate the SYN flood defense function. Once detecting the Threshold of the TCP SYN packets from the Internet has exceeded the defined value, the Vigor router will start to randomly discard the subsequent TCP SYN packets for a period defined in Timeout. The goal for this is prevent the TCP SYN packets attempt to exhaust the limited-resource of Vigor router. By default, the threshold and timeout values are set to 50 packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively. Check the box to activate the UDP flood defense function. Once detecting the Threshold of the UDP packets from the Internet has exceeded the defined value, the Vigor router will start to randomly discard the subsequent UDP packets for a period defined in Timeout. The default setting for threshold and timeout are 150 packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively. Check the box to activate the ICMP flood defense function. Similar to the UDP flood defense function, once if the Threshold of ICMP packets from Internet has exceeded the defined value, the router will discard the ICMP echo requests coming from the Internet. The default setting for threshold and timeout are 50 packets per second and 10 seconds, respectively. Port Scan attacks the Vigor router by sending lots of packets to many ports in an attempt to find ignorant services would respond. Check the box to activate the Port Scan detection. Whenever
86
Enable UDP flood defense
Enable ICMP flood defense
Enable PortScan detection
detecting this malicious exploration behavior by monitoring the port-scanning Threshold rate, the Vigor router will send out a warning. By default, the Vigor router sets the threshold as 150 packets per second. Block IP options Check the box to activate the Block IP options function. The Vigor router will ignore any IP packets with IP option field in the datagram header. The reason for limitation is IP option appears to be a vulnerability of the security for the LAN because it will carry significant information, such as security, TCC (closed user group) parameters, a series of Internet addresses, routing messages...etc. An eavesdropper outside might learn the details of your private networks. Check the box to enforce the Vigor router to defense the Land attacks. The Land attack combines the SYN attack technology with IP spoofing. A Land attack occurs when an attacker sends spoofed SYN packets with the identical source and destination addresses, as well as the port number to victims. Check the box to activate the Block Smurf function. The Vigor router will ignore any broadcasting ICMP echo request. Check the box to enforce the Vigor router not to forward any trace route packets. Check the box to activate the Block SYN fragment function. The Vigor router will drop any packets having SYN flag and more fragment bit set. Check the box to activate the Block fraggle Attack function. Any broadcast UDP packets received from the Internet is blocked. Activating the DoS/DDoS defense functionality might block some legal packets. For example, when you activate the fraggle attack defense, all broadcast UDP packets coming from the Internet are blocked. Therefore, the RIP packets from the Internet might be dropped. Check the box to activate the Block TCP flag scan function. Any TCP packet with anomaly flag setting is dropped. Those scanning activities include no flag scan, FIN without ACK scan, SYN FINscan, Xmas scan and full Xmas scan. Check the box to activate the Block Tear Drop function. Many machines may crash when receiving ICMP datagrams (packets) that exceed the maximum length. To avoid this type of attack, the Vigor router is designed to be capable of discarding any fragmented ICMP packets with a length greater than 1024 octets. Check the box to activate the Block Ping of Death function. This attack involves the perpetrator sending overlapping packets to the target hosts so that those target hosts will hang once they re-construct the packets. The Vigor routers will block any packets realizing this attacking activity.
Block Land
Block Smurf Block trace router Block SYN fragment
Block Fraggle Attack
Block TCP flag scan
Block Tear Drop
Block Ping of Death
Block ICMP Fragment Check the box to activate the Block ICMP fragment function. Any ICMP packets with more fragment bit set are dropped. Block Unknown Protocol Check the box to activate the Block Unknown Protocol function. Individual IP packet has a protocol field in the datagram header to
87
indicate the protocol type running over the upper layer. However, the protocol types greater than 100 are reserved and undefined at this time. Therefore, the router should have ability to detect and reject this kind of packets. Warning Messages We provide Syslog function for user to retrieve message from Vigor router. The user, as a Syslog Server, shall receive the report sending from Vigor router which is a Syslog Client. All the warning messages related to DoS Defense will be sent to user and user can review it through Syslog daemon. Look for the keyword DoS in the message, followed by a name to indicate what kind of attacks is detected.

CSM is an abbreviation of Content Security Management which is used to control IM/P2P usage, filter the web content and URL content to reach a goal of security management. As the popularity of all kinds of instant messenger application arises, communication cannot become much easier. Nevertheless, while some industry may leverage this as a great tool to connect with their customers, some industry may take reserve attitude in order to reduce employee misusage during office hour or prevent unknown security leak. It is similar situation for corporation towards peer-to-peer applications since file-sharing can be convenient but insecure at the same time. To address these needs, we provide CSM functionality.

URL Content Filter

To provide an appropriate cyberspace to users, Vigor router equips with URL Content Filter not only to limit illegal traffic from/to the inappropriate web sites but also prohibit other web feature where malicious code may conceal. Once a user type in or click on an URL with objectionable keywords, URL keyword blocking facility will decline the HTTP request to that web page thus can limit users access to the website. You may imagine URL Content Filter as a well-trained convenience-store clerk who wont sell adult magazines to teenagers. At office, URL Content Filter can also provide a job-related only environment hence to increase the employee work efficiency. How can URL Content Filter work better than traditional firewall in the field of filtering? Because it checks the URL strings or some of HTTP data hiding in the payload of TCP packets while legacy firewall inspects packets based on the fields of TCP/IP headers only. On the other hand, Vigor router can prevent user from accidentally downloading malicious codes from web pages. Its very common that malicious codes conceal in the executable objects, such as ActiveX, Java Applet, compressed files, and other executable files. Once downloading these types of files from websites, you may risk bringing threat to your system. For example, an ActiveX control object is usually used for providing interactive web feature. If malicious code hides inside, it may occupy users system.
Web Content Filter

We all know that the content on the Internet just like other types of media may be inappropriate sometimes. As a responsible parent or employer, you should protect those in your trust against the hazards. With Web filtering service of the Vigor router, you can protect your business from common primary threats, such as productivity, legal liability, network and security threats. For parents, you can protect your children from viewing adult websites or chat rooms. Once you have activated your Web Filtering service in Vigor router and chosen the categories of website you wish to restrict, each URL address requested (e.g.www.bbc.co.uk) will be checked against our server database. This database is updated as frequent as daily by a global team of Internet researchers. The server will look up the URL and return a category to your router. Your Vigor router will then decide whether to allow access to this site according to the categories you have selected. Please note that this action will not introduce any delay in your Web surfing because each of multiple load balanced database servers can handle millions of requests for categorization. Note: The priority of URL Content Filter is higher than Web Content Filter.

Once a user type in or click on an URL with objectionable keywords, URL keyword blocking facility will decline the HTTP request to that web page thus can limit users access to the website. You may imagine URL Content Filter as a well-trained convenience-store clerk who wont sell adult magazines to teenagers. At office, URL Content Filter can also provide a job-related only environment hence to increase the employee work efficiency. How can URL Content Filter work better than traditional firewall in the field of filtering? Because it checks the URL strings or some of HTTP data hiding in the payload of TCP packets while legacy firewall inspects packets based on the fields of TCP/IP headers only. On the other hand, Vigor router can prevent user from accidentally downloading malicious codes from web pages. Its very common that malicious codes conceal in the executable objects, such as ActiveX, Java Applet, compressed files, and other executable files. Once downloading these types of files from websites, you may risk bringing threat to your system. For example, an ActiveX control object is usually used for providing interactive web feature. If malicious code hides inside, it may occupy users system. For example, if you add key words such as sex, Vigor router will limit web access to web sites or web pages such as www.sex.com, www.backdoor.net/images/sex/p_386.html. Or you may simply specify the full or partial URL such as www.sex.com or sex.com. Also the Vigor router will discard any request that tries to retrieve the malicious code. Click CSM and click URL Content Filter Profile to open the profile setting page.
You can set eight profiles as URL content filter. Simply click the index number under Profile to open the following web page.

3.7.3 Quality of Service

Deploying QoS (Quality of Service) management to guarantee that all applications receive the service levels required and sufficient bandwidth to meet performance expectations is indeed one important aspect of modern enterprise network. One reason for QoS is that numerous TCP-based applications tend to continually increase their transmission rate and consume all available bandwidth, which is called TCP slow start. If other applications are not protected by QoS, it will detract much from their performance in the overcrowded network. This is especially essential to those are low tolerant of loss, delay or jitter (delay variation). Another reason is due to congestions at network intersections where speeds of interconnected circuits mismatch or traffic aggregates, packets will queue up and traffic can be throttled back to a lower speed. If theres no defined priority to specify which packets should be discarded (or in another term dropped) from an overflowing queue, packets of sensitive applications mentioned above might be the ones to drop off. How this will affect application performance? There are two components within Primary configuration of QoS deployment: Classification: Identifying low-latency or crucial applications and marking them for high-priority service level enforcement throughout the network. Scheduling: Based on classification of service level to assign packets to queues and associated service types The basic QoS implementation in Vigor routers is to classify and schedule packets based on the service type information in the IP header. For instance, to ensure the connection with the headquarter, a teleworker may enforce an index of QoS Control to reserve bandwidth for HTTPS connection while using lots of application at the same time. One more larger-scale implementation of QoS network is to apply DSCP (Differentiated Service Code Point) and IP Precedence disciplines at Layer 3. Compared with legacy IP Precedence that uses Type of Service (ToS) field in the IP header to define 8 service classes, DSCP is a successor creating 64 classes possible with backward IP Precedence compatibility. In a QoS-enabled network, or Differentiated Service (DiffServ or DS) framework, a DS domain owner should sign a Service License Agreement (SLA) with other DS domain owners to define the service level provided toward traffic from different domains. Then each DS node in these domains will perform the priority treatment. This is called per-hop-behavior (PHB). The definition of PHB includes Expedited Forwarding (EF), Assured Forwarding (AF), and Best Effort (BE). AF defines the four classes of delivery (or forwarding) classes and three levels of drop precedence in each class. Vigor routers as edge routers of DS domain shall check the marked DSCP value in the IP header of bypassing traffic, thus to allocate certain amount of resource execute appropriate policing, classification or scheduling. The core routers in the backbone will do the same checking before executing treatments in order to ensure service-level consistency throughout the whole QoS-enabled network.
115
However, each node may take different attitude toward packets with high priority marking since it may bind with the business deal of SLA among different DS domain owners. Its not easy to achieve deterministic and consistent high-priority QoS traffic throughout the whole network with merely Vigor routers effort. In the Bandwidth Management menu, click Quality of Service to open the web page.
This page displays the QoS settings result of the WAN interface. Click the Setup link to access into next page for the general setup of WAN (1/2) interface. As to class rule, simply click the Edit link to access into next for configuration. You can configure general setup for the WAN interface, edit the Class Rule, and edit the Service Type for the Class Rule for your request.
General Setup for WAN Interface

When you click Setup, you can configure the bandwidth ratio for QoS of the WAN interface. There are four queues allowed for QoS control. The first three (Class 1 to Class 3) class rules can be adjusted for your necessity. Yet, the last one is reserved for the packets which are not suitable for the user-defined class rules.

You will see the Online Statistics link appearing on this page. WAN Inbound Bandwidth It allows you to set the connecting rate of data input for WAN. For example, if your ADSL supports 1M of downstream and 256K upstream, please set 10000kbps for this box. The default value is 10000kbps. WAN Outbound Bandwidth It allows you to set the connecting rate of data output for WAN. For example, if your ADSL supports 1M of downstream and 256K upstream, please set 256kbps for this box. The default value is 10000kbps. Reserved Bandwidth Ratio It is reserved for the group index in the form of ratio of reserved bandwidth to upstream speed and reserved bandwidth to downstream speed. Enable UDP Bandwidth Control Check this and set the limited bandwidth ratio on the right field. This is a protection of TCP application traffic since UDP application traffic such as streaming video will exhaust lots of bandwidth. The difference in bandwidth between download and upload are great in ADSL2+ environment. For the download speed might be impacted by the uploading TCP ACK, you can check this box to push ACK of upload faster to speed the network traffic. The ratio typed here is reserved for limited bandwidth of UDP application. Display an online statistics for quality of service for your reference.

3.8 Applications
Below shows the menu items for Applications.
3.8.1 Dynamic DNS

The ISP often provides you with a dynamic IP address when you connect to the Internet via your ISP. It means that the public IP address assigned to your router changes each time you access the Internet. The Dynamic DNS feature lets you assign a domain name to a dynamic WAN IP address. It allows the router to update its online WAN IP address mappings on the specified Dynamic DNS server. Once the router is online, you will be able to use the registered domain name to access the router or internal virtual servers from the Internet. It is particularly helpful if you host a web server, FTP server, or other server behind the router. Before you use the Dynamic DNS feature, you have to apply for free DDNS service to the DDNS service providers. The router provides up to three accounts from three different DDNS service providers. Basically, Vigor routers are compatible with the DDNS services supplied by most popular DDNS service providers such as www.dyndns.org, www.no-ip.com, www.dtdns.com, www.changeip.com, www.dynamic- nameserver.com. You should visit their websites to register your own domain name for the router. Enable the Function and Add a Dynamic DNS Account 1. 2. Assume you have a registered domain name from the DDNS provider, say hostname.dyndns.org, and an account with username: test and password: test. In the DDNS setup menu, check Enable Dynamic DNS Setup.

3.8.2 Schedule
The Vigor router has a built-in real time clock which can update itself manually or automatically by means of Network Time Protocols (NTP). As a result, you can not only schedule the router to dialup to the Internet at a specified time, but also restrict Internet access to certain hours so that users can connect to the Internet only during certain hours, say, business hours. The schedule is also applicable to other functions. You have to set your time before set schedule. In System Maintenance>> Time and Date menu, press Inquire Time button to set the Vigor routers clock to current time of your PC. The clock will reset once if you power down or reset the router. There is another way to set up time. You can inquiry an NTP server (a time server) on the Internet to synchronize the routers clock. This method can only be applied when the WAN connection has been built up.
Set to Factory Default Index Status
Clear all profiles and recover to factory settings. Click the number below Index to access into the setting page of schedule. Display if this schedule setting is active or inactive.
You can set up to 15 schedules. Then you can apply them to your Internet Access or VPN and Remote Access >> LAN-to-LAN settings. To add a schedule, please click any index, say Index No. 1. The detailed settings of the call schedule with index 1 are shown below.
123
Enable Schedule Setup Start Date (yyyy-mm-dd) Start Time (hh:mm) Duration Time (hh:mm) Action

Specify which action Call Schedule should apply during the period of the schedule. Force On -Force the connection to be always on. Force Down -Force the connection to be always down. Enable Dial-On-Demand -Specify the connection to be dial-on-demand and the value of idle timeout should be specified in Idle Timeout field. Disable Dial-On-Demand -Specify the connection to be up when it has traffic on the line. Once there is no traffic over idle timeout, the connection will be down and never up again during the schedule. Specify the duration (or period) for the schedule. How often -Specify how often the schedule will be applied Once -The schedule will be applied just once Weekdays -Specify which days in one week should perform the schedule.
Idle Timeout
Example Suppose you want to control the PPPoE Internet access connection to be always on (Force On) from 9:00 to 18:00 for whole week. Other time the Internet access connection should be disconnected (Force Down). Office Hour: (Force On) Mon - Sun 1. 9:00 am to 6:00 pm
Make sure the PPPoE connection and Time Setup is working properly.
124
2. 3. 4.
Configure the PPPoE always on from 9:00 to 18:00 for whole week. Configure the Force Down from 18:00 to next day 9:00 for whole week. Assign these two profiles to the PPPoE Internet access profile. Now, the PPPoE Internet connection will follow the schedule order to perform Force On or Force Down action according to the time plan that has been pre-defined in the schedule profiles.
3.8.3 RADIUS
Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a security authentication client/server protocol that supports authentication, authorization and accounting, which is widely used by Internet service providers. It is the most common method of authenticating and authorizing dial-up and tunneled network users. The built-in RADIUS client feature enables the router to assist the remote dial-in user or a wireless station and the RADIUS server in performing mutual authentication. It enables centralized remote access authentication for network management.
Enable Server IP Address Destination Port Shared Secret
Check to enable RADIUS client feature Enter the IP address of RADIUS server The UDP port number that the RADIUS server is using. The default value is 1812, based on RFC 2138. The RADIUS server and client share a secret that is used to authenticate the messages sent between them. Both sides must be configured to use the same shared secret. Re-type the Shared Secret for confirmation.
Confirm Shared Secret
125
3.8.4 UPnP
The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol is supported to bring to network connected devices the ease of installation and configuration which is already available for directly connected PC peripherals with the existing Windows 'Plug and Play' system. For NAT routers, the major feature of UPnP on the router is NAT Traversal. This enables applications inside the firewall to automatically open the ports that they need to pass through a router. It is more reliable than requiring a router to work out by itself which ports need to be opened. Further, the user does not have to manually set up port mappings or a DMZ. UPnP is available on Windows XP and the router provide the associated support for MSN Messenger to allow full use of the voice, video and messaging features.
Enable UPNP Service
Accordingly, you can enable either the Connection Control Service or Connection Status Service.
After setting Enable UPNP Service setting, an icon of IP Broadband Connection on Router on Windows XP/Network Connections will appear. The connection status and control status will be able to be activated. The NAT Traversal of UPnP enables the multimedia features of your applications to operate. This has to manually set up port mappings or use other similar methods. The screenshots below show examples of this facility.
The UPnP facility on the router enables UPnP aware applications such as MSN Messenger to discover what are behind a NAT router. The application will also learn the external IP address and configure port mappings on the router. Subsequently, such a facility forwards packets from the external ports of the router to the internal ports used by the application.
126
The reminder as regards concern about Firewall and UPnP Can't work with Firewall Software Enabling firewall applications on your PC may cause the UPnP function not working properly. This is because these applications will block the accessing ability of some network ports. Security Considerations Activating the UPnP function on your network may incur some security threats. You should consider carefully these risks before activating the UPnP function. Some Microsoft operating systems have found out the UPnP weaknesses and hence you need to ensure that you have applied the latest service packs and patches. Non-privileged users can control some router functions, including removing and adding port mappings. The UPnP function dynamically adds port mappings on behalf of some UPnP-aware applications. When the applications terminate abnormally, these mappings may not be removed.
127
3.8.5 IGMP
IGMP is the abbreviation of Internet Group Management Protocol. It is a communication protocol which is mainly used for managing the membership of Internet Protocol multicast groups. For invoking IGMP Snooping function, you have to check the Enable IGMP Proxy box first for activating the IGMP proxy function.
Enable IGMP Proxy
Check this box to enable this function. The application of multicast will be executed through WAN1/2 port or PVC. Use the drop down list to choose the interface. Check this box to enable this function. The application of multicast will be executed for the clients in LAN. This field displays the ID port for the multicast group. The available range for IGMP starts from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.254. It indicates the LAN port used for the multicast group.

A PC client on LAN can be woken up by the router it connects. When a user wants to wake up a specified PC through the router, he/she must type correct MAC address of the specified PC on this web page of Wake on LAN of this router. In addition, such PC must have installed a network card supporting WOL function. By the way, WOL function must be set as Enable on the BIOS setting.
Wake by
Two types provide for you to wake up the binded IP. If you choose Wake by MAC Address, you have to type the correct MAC address of the host in MAC Address boxes. If you choose Wake by IP Address, you have to choose the correct IP address.
IP Address
The IP addresses that have been configured in Firewall>>Bind IP to MAC will be shown in this drop down list. Choose the IP address from the drop down list that you want to wake up. Type any one of the MAC address of the binded PCs. Click this button to wake up the selected IP. See the following figure. The result will be shown on the box.

3.9 VPN and Remote Access

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is the extension of a private network that encompasses links across shared or public networks like the Internet. In short, by VPN technology, you can send data between two computers across a shared or public network in a manner that emulates the properties of a point-to-point private link. Below shows the menu items for VPN and Remote Access.
Note: This feature can be applied for ISDN remote dial-in or ISDN LAN-to-LAN connection in n series models.
3.9.1 Remote Access Control

Enable the necessary VPN service as you need. If you intend to run a VPN server inside your LAN, you should disable the VPN service of Vigor Router to allow VPN tunnel pass through, as well as the appropriate NAT settings, such as DMZ or open port.
The Vigor router will not accept the ISDN dial-in connection if the box of Enable ISDN Dial-in is not checked.
130
3.9.2 PPP General Setup

This submenu only applies to PPP-related VPN connections, such as PPTP, L2TP, L2TP over IPSec.
Select this option to force the router to authenticate dial-in Dial-In PPP Authentication PAP Only users with the PAP protocol. PAP or CHAP Selecting this option means the router will attempt to authenticate dial-in users with the CHAP protocol first. If the dial-in user does not support this protocol, it will fall back to use the PAP protocol for authentication. This option represents that the MPPE encryption method will be optionally employed in the router for the remote dial-in user. If the remote dial-in user does not support the MPPE encryption algorithm, the router will transmit no MPPE encrypted packets. Otherwise, the MPPE encryption scheme will be used to encrypt the data.
Dial-In PPP Encryption (MPPE Optional MPPE
Require MPPE (40/128bits) - Selecting this option will force the router to encrypt packets by using the MPPE encryption algorithm. In addition, the remote dial-in user will use 40-bit to perform encryption prior to using 128-bit for encryption. In other words, if 128-bit MPPE encryption method is not available, then 40-bit encryption scheme will be applied to encrypt the data. Maximum MPPE - This option indicates that the router will use the MPPE encryption scheme with maximum bits (128-bit) to encrypt the data. Mutual Authentication (PAP) The Mutual Authentication function is mainly used to communicate with other routers or clients who need bi-directional authentication in order to provide stronger security, for example, Cisco routers. So you should enable this function when your peer router requires mutual authentication. You should further specify the User Name and Password of the mutual authentication peer.

Assigned IP Address
Enter a specific IP address for the dial-in PPP connection. You should choose an IP address from the local private network.
3.9.3 IPSec General Setup

In IPSec General Setup, there are two major parts of configuration. There are two phases of IPSec. Phase 1: negotiation of IKE parameters including encryption, hash, Diffie-Hellman parameter values, and lifetime to protect the following IKE exchange, authentication of both peers using either a Pre-Shared Key or Digital Signature (x.509). The peer that starts the negotiation proposes all its policies to the remote peer and then remote peer tries to find a highest-priority match with its policies. Eventually to set up a secure tunnel for IKE Phase 2. Phase 2: negotiation IPSec security methods including Authentication Header (AH) or Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) for the following IKE exchange and mutual examination of the secure tunnel establishment. There are two encapsulation methods used in IPSec, Transport and Tunnel. The Transport mode will add the AH/ESP payload and use original IP header to encapsulate the data payload only. It can just apply to local packet, e.g., L2TP over IPSec. The Tunnel mode will not only add the AH/ESP payload but also use a new IP header (Tunneled IP header) to encapsulate the whole original IP packet. Authentication Header (AH) provides data authentication and integrity for IP packets passed between VPN peers. This is achieved by a keyed one-way hash function to the packet to create a message digest. This digest will be put in the AH and transmitted along with packets. On the receiving side, the peer will perform the same one-way hash on the packet and compare the value with the one in the AH it receives. Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) is a security protocol that provides data confidentiality and protection with optional authentication and replay detection service.
IKE Authentication Method This usually applies to those are remote dial-in user or node (LAN-to-LAN) which uses dynamic IP address and IPSec-related VPN connections such as L2TP over IPSec and IPSec tunnel. Pre-Shared Key -Currently only support Pre-Shared Key authentication. Pre-Shared Key- Specify a key for IKE authentication

A digital certificate works as an electronic ID, which is issued by a certification authority (CA). It contains information such as your name, a serial number, expiration dates etc., and the digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that a recipient can verify that the certificate is real. Here Vigor router support digital certificates conforming to standard X.509. Any entity wants to utilize digital certificates should first request a certificate issued by a CA server. It should also retrieve certificates of other trusted CA servers so it can authenticate the peer with certificates issued by those trusted CA servers. Here you can manage generate and manage the local digital certificates, and set trusted CA certificates. Remember to adjust the time of Vigor router before using the certificate so that you can get the correct valid period of certificate. Below shows the menu items for Certificate Management.

3.11 VoIP
Voice over IP network (VoIP) enables you to use your broadband Internet connection to make toll quality voice calls over the Internet. There are many different call signaling protocols, methods by which VoIP devices can talk to each other. The most popular protocols are SIP, MGCP, Megaco and H.323. These protocols are not all compatible with each other (except via a soft-switch server). The Vigor V models support the SIP protocol as this is an ideal and convenient deployment for the ITSP (Internet Telephony Service Provider) and softphone and is widely supported. SIP is an end-to-end, signaling protocol that establishes user presence and mobility in VoIP structure. Every one who wants to talk using his/her SIP Uniform Resource Identifier, SIP Address. The standard format of SIP URI is sip: user:password @ host: port Some fields may be optional in different use. In general, "host refers to a domain. The userinfo includes the user field, the password field and the @ sign following them. This is very similar to a URL so some may call it SIP URL. SIP supports peer-to-peer direct calling and also calling via a SIP proxy server (a role similar to the gatekeeper in H.323 networks), while the MGCP protocol uses client-server architecture, the calling scenario being very similar to the current PSTN/ISDN network. After a call is setup, the voice streams transmit via RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol). Different codecs (methods to compress and encode the voice) can be embedded into RTP packets. Vigor V models provide various codecs, including G.711 A/-law, G.723, G.726 and G.729 A & B. Each codec uses a different bandwidth and hence provides different levels of voice quality. The more bandwidth a codec uses the better the voice quality, however the codec used must be appropriate for your Internet bandwidth. Usually there will be two types of calling scenario, as illustrated below: Calling via SIP Servers First, the Vigor V models of yours will have to register to a SIP Registrar by sending
Vigor2820 Series Users Guide 150
registration messages to validate. Then, both parties SIP proxies will forward the sequence of messages to caller to establish the session. If you both register to the same SIP Registrar, then it will be illustrated as below:
The major benefit of this mode is that you dont have to memorize your friends IP address, which might change very frequently if its dynamic. Instead of that, you will only have to using dial plan or directly dial your friends account name if you are with the same SIP Registrar. Please refer to the section 4.5.1. Peer-to-Peer Before calling, you have to know your friends IP Address. The Vigor VoIP Routers will build connection between each other. Please refer to the section 4.5.2.
Our Vigor V models firstly apply efficient codecs designed to make the best use of available bandwidth, but Vigor V models also equip with automatic QoS assurance. QoS Assurance assists to assign high priority to voice traffic via Internet. You will always have the required inbound and outbound bandwidth that is prioritized exclusively for Voice traffic over Internet but you just get your data a little slower and it is tolerable for data traffic.

For the model of Vigor 2820Vn, the selection should be as the following:
Backup Phone Number
When the VoIP phone is obstructs or the Internet breaks down for some reasons, the backup phone will be dialed out to replace the VoIP phone number. At this time, the phone call will be changed from VoIP phone into PSTN call according to the loop through direction chosen. Note that, during the phone switch, the blare of phone will appear for a short time. And when the VoIP phone is switched into the PSTN phone, the telecom co. might charge you for the connection fee. Please type in backup phone number (PSTN number/ISDN number) for this VoIP phone setting. ZRTP is a cryptographic key-agreement protocol to encrypt VoIP phone calls to ensure the phone security. It allows users to encrypt any Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) VoIP voice stream, as long as the peer side on the call is also using such protocol. None - If the incoming or outgoing call matches the phone book entry with secure phone option set to "None", it means the call should be unprotected. ZRTP+SRTP If the incoming or outgoing call matches the phone book entry with secure phone option set to "ZRTP+SRTP", it means the call would be protected. A warning message will be played out if the call ends up unprotected.
Secure Phone
Note: If the incoming or outgoing calls do not match any entry on the phonebook, the router will try to make the call "being protected". But, if the call ends up "unprotected"(e.g. peer side does not support ZRTP+SRTP), the router will not play out a warning message.

3.12 ISDN
3.12.1 Basic Concept
ISDN means integrated services digital network that is an international communications standard for sending voice, video, and data over digital telephone lines or normal telephone wires. Below shows the menu items for ISDN.
183
3.12.2 General Settings

This web page allows you to enable ISDN function.
ISDN Port Country Code D-Channel Mode
Click Enable to open the ISDN port and Disable to close it. For proper operation on your local ISDN network, you should choose the correct country code. It allows you to configure ISDN layer2 protocol as: Point-to-Point - Configure ISDN port to use static TEI (Terminal Endpoint Identifier). Point-to-Multipoint - Configure ISDN port to use Dynamic TEI. Enter your ISDN number that you got from ISDN service provider (To have such number, you have offer your request from ISDN service provider first). Every outgoing call will carry the number to the receiver.
Own Number
Blocked MSN Numbers for Enter the specified MSN number into the fields to prevent the router from dialing the specific MSN number the router MSN Numbers for the Router MSN Numbers mean that the router is able to accept only number-matched incoming calls. In addition, local ISDN network provider should support MSN services. The router provides ten fields for MSN numbers. Note that MSN service must be acquired from your local telecom operators. By
184
default, MSN function is disabled. If you leave the fields blank, all incoming calls will be accepted without number matching. 1-10 fields Fill in the portion that is different with the own number. For example, the own number is 1234567 and MSN numbers are 1234550, 1234517 and 1234582 respectively. You can type in 1234567 in the filed of own number. Fill in 50, 17 and 67 on the fields of 1, 2 and 3 one by one without typing 12345. Mapping to Phone Ports For loop through phone calls, you can assign Phone or/and ISDN1-S0 as ring ports if incoming calls correspond with settings on MSN number field. There are ten internal lines (30-39) under ISDN1-S0 for you to configure as dedicated line. You can setup your ISDN
phone with one of these 10 different internal MSN numbers. Transparent means MSN on TE port can connect
to NT port without limitation on the number among 30 ~ 39.
Any means all the phones under ISDN1-S0 would ring.
If you choose Any as ISDN-S0 port, when the router receives the incoming phone call with certain number for reaching ISDN-S0, all the phone sets connected to ISDN-S0 will ring at the same time. Phone CLIR/CLIP CLIR means Calling Line Identification Restriction. If you choose this item, we will not let remote side see your phone number. Such function depends on environment that ISP offers to you. Usually, hidden telephone number is not permitted under many real circumstances. CLIP means Calling Line Identification Presentation. Usually the router will send "Own Number" to the remote side. However Own number will restrict the router displaying only one number on remote side. Vigor2820 series can connect up to 6 phones at the same time. Therefore, if CLIP is selected, the external MSN numbers that you setup will be displayed to remote side.
185
Application Example
You got ISDN numbers with 5972720~5972729 from your ISP, and you try to connect ISDN-TE port to ISDN network. Please refer to the following configuration. Open ISDN>> General Setup and set as the following:
When remote user calls you by dialing 5972727, the router will make Phone port ringing. When remote user calls you by dialing 5972728, the router will make ISDN phone under ISDN1-S0 port and configured with internal MSN number 32 ringing. When remote user calls you by dialing 5972729, the router will make ISDN phones under ISDN1-S0 port and configured with internal MSN number 5972729 ringing. When remote user calls you by dialing 5972720, the router will make all of ISDN phones under ISDN1-S0 port ringing. When remote user calls you by dialing 5972722, the router will make no phone ringing for the number is not specified in such page. If you use Phone to dial an outgoing call: remote user will see the telephone number 5972726 because CLIP is not checked. If you use ISDN1-S0 with MSN 32 to dial an outgoing call: remote user will see Withheld Number from the telephone display panel because Phone CLIR is checked. If you use ISDN1-S0 with MSN 5972729 to dial an outgoing call: remote user will see the number 5972729 because Phone CLIP is checked.
If you use ISDN1-S0 without MSN Setup to dial an outgoing call: remote user will see the number 5972720 because Phone CLIP is checked.

3.12.4 Call Control

Some applications require that the router (only for the ISDN models) be remotely activated, or be able to dial up to the ISP via the ISDN interface. Vigor routers provide this feature by allowing user to make a phone call to the router and then ask it to dial up to the ISP. Accordingly, a teleworker can access the remote network to retrieve resources. Of course, a fixed IP address is required for WAN connection and some internal network resource has to be exposed for remote users, such as FTP, WWW.
Call Control Setup
Dial Retry - It specifies the dial retry counts per triggered packet. A triggered packet is the packet whose destination is outside the local network. The default setting is no dial retry. If set to 5, for each triggered packet, the router will dial 5 times until it is connected to the ISP or remote access router. Dial Delay Interval - It specifies the interval between dialup retries. By default, the interval is 0 second. Remote Activation It can help users who would like to access the server which is off the Internet in the head office. To remotely make the server to be available on the Internet, i.e. make the router in the head office activating its Internet access either by dialing-up or starting broadband connection, users can make a regular phone call (the number is set in the Remote Activation field) to the router as signaling it for activation. The phone call will be soon disconnected once the router is on line. Note that Dialing to a Single ISP should be pre-configured properly.
Basic Setup
Link Type - Because ISDN has two B channels (64Kbps/per channel), you can specify whether you would like to have single B channel, two B channels or BOD (Bandwidth on Demand). Four options are available: Link Disable, Dialup 64Kbps, Dialup 128Kbps, Dialup BOD.
PPP Authentication - It specifies the PPP authentication
191
method for PPP/MP connections. Normally you can set it to PAP/CHAP for better compatibility. TCP Header Compression - VJ Compression: It is used for TCP/IP protocol header compression. Normally it is set to Yes to improve bandwidth utilization. Idle Timeout - Because our IDSN link type is Dial On Demand, the connection will be initiated only when needed. Bandwidth-On-Demand (BOD) Setup Bandwidth-On-Demand is for Multiple-Link PPP \(ML-PPP or MP). The parameters are only applied when you set the Link Type to Dialup BOD. The ISDN usually use one B channel to access the Internet or remote network when you choose the Dialup BOD link type. The router will use the parameters here to decide on when you activate/drop the additional B channel. Note that cps (characters-per-second) measures the total link utilization. High Water Mark and High Water Time - These parameters specify the situation in which the second channel will be activated. With the first connected channel, if its utilization exceeds the High Water Mark and such a channel is being used over the High Water Time, the additional channel will be activated. Thus, the total link speed will be 128kbps (two B channels). Low Water Mark and Low Water Time - These parameters specify the situation in which the second channel will be dropped. In terms of the two B channels, if their utilization is under the Low Water Mark and these two channels are being used over the High Water Time, the additional channel will be dropped. As a result, the total link speed will be 64kbps (one B channel).
3.13 Wireless LAN

This function is used for n models only.
3.13.1 Basic Concepts

Over recent years, the market for wireless communications has enjoyed tremendous growth. Wireless technology now reaches or is capable of reaching virtually every location on the surface of the earth. Hundreds of millions of people exchange information every day via wireless communication products. The Vigor n model, a.k.a. Vigor wireless router, is designed for maximum flexibility and efficiency of a small office/home. Any authorized staff can bring a built-in WLAN client PDA or notebook into a meeting room for conference without laying a clot of LAN cable or drilling holes everywhere. Wireless LAN enables high mobility so WLAN users can simultaneously access all LAN facilities just like on a wired LAN as well as Internet access. The Vigor wireless routers are equipped with a wireless LAN interface compliant with the standard IEEE 802.11n protocol. To boost its performance further, the Vigor Router is also loaded with advanced wireless technology to lift up data rate up to 300 Mbps*. Hence, you can finally smoothly enjoy stream music and video. Note: * The actual data throughput will vary according to the network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, network overhead and building materials.
192
In an Infrastructure Mode of wireless network, Vigor wireless router plays a role as an Access Point (AP) connecting to lots of wireless clients or Stations (STA). All the STAs will share the same Internet connection via Vigor wireless router. The General Settings will set up the information of this wireless network, including its SSID as identification, located channel etc.
Security Overview
Real-time Hardware Encryption: Vigor Router is equipped with a hardware AES encryption engine so it can apply the highest protection to your data without influencing user experience. Complete Security Standard Selection: To ensure the security and privacy of your wireless communication, we provide several prevailing standards on market. WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a legacy method to encrypt each frame transmitted via radio using either a 64-bit or 128-bit key. Usually access point will preset a set of four keys and it will communicate with each station using only one out of the four keys. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), the most dominating security mechanism in industry, is separated into two categories: WPA-personal or called WPA Pre-Share Key (WPA/PSK), and WPA-Enterprise or called WPA/802.1x. In WPA-Personal, a pre-defined key is used for encryption during data transmission. WPA applies Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) for data encryption while WPA2 applies AES. The WPA-Enterprise combines not only encryption but also authentication. Since WEP has been proved vulnerable, you may consider using WPA for the most secure connection. You should select the appropriate security mechanism according to your needs. No matter which security suite you select, they all will enhance the over-the-air data protection and /or privacy on your wireless network. The Vigor wireless router is very flexible and can support multiple secure connections with both WEP and WPA at the same time. Separate the Wireless and the Wired LAN- WLAN Isolation enables you to isolate your wireless LAN from wired LAN for either quarantine or limit access reasons. To isolate means neither of the parties can access each other. To elaborate an example for business use, you may set up a wireless LAN for visitors only so they can connect to Internet without hassle of the confidential information leakage. For a more flexible deployment, you may add filters of MAC addresses to isolate users access from wired LAN.

195
Long Preamble
This option is to define the length of the sync field in an 802.11 packet. Most modern wireless network uses short preamble with 56 bit sync filed instead of long preamble with 128 bit sync field. However, some original 11b wireless network devices only support long preamble. Check it to use Long Preamble if needed to communicate with this kind of devices. This feature can enhance the performance in data transmission about 40% for 11g (5% for 11n) by checking Tx Burst. It is active only when both sides of Access Point and Station (in wireless client) invoke this function at the same time. That is, the wireless client must support this feature and invoke the function, too. Note: Vigor N61 wireless adapter supports this function. Therefore, you can use and install it into your PC for matching with Packet-OVERDRIVE (refer to the following picture of Vigor N61 wireless utility window, choose Enable for TxBURST on the tab of Option).

3.13.6 WDS
WDS means Wireless Distribution System. It is a protocol for connecting two access points (AP) wirelessly. Usually, it can be used for the following application: Provide bridge traffic between two LANs through the air. Extend the coverage range of a WLAN. To meet the above requirement, two WDS modes are implemented in Vigor router. One is Bridge, the other is Repeater. Below shows the function of WDS-bridge interface:
The application for the WDS-Repeater mode is depicted as below:
202
The major difference between these two modes is that: while in Repeater mode, the packets received from one peer AP can be repeated to another peer AP through WDS links. Yet in Bridge mode, packets received from a WDS link will only be forwarded to local wired or wireless hosts. In other words, only Repeater mode can do WDS-to-WDS packet forwarding. In the following examples, hosts connected to Bridge 1 or 3 can communicate with hosts connected to Bridge 2 through WDS links. However, hosts connected to Bridge 1 CANNOT communicate with hosts connected to Bridge 3 through Bridge 2.
Click WDS from Wireless LAN menu. The following page will be shown.
203
Mode
Choose the mode for WDS setting. Disable mode will not invoke any WDS setting. Bridge mode is designed to fulfill the first type of application. Repeater mode is for the second one.
Security
There are three types for security, Disable, WEP and Pre-shared key. The setting you choose here will make the following WEP or Pre-shared key field valid or not. Choose one of the types for the router. Check this box to use the same key set in Security Settings page. If you did not set any key in Security Settings page, this check box will be dimmed. Type There are three types for you to choose. DrayTek WPA can be used for all DrayTek wireless routers like Vigor2700, Vigor2800, Vigor2820, and etc., except for other brand's wireless routers. WPA and WPA2 are used for WDS devices (e.g., AP700). For example, if you have a wireless AP and a Vigor2820n wireless router, you can set the encryption mode as WPA or WPA2 to establish your WDS system between AP and the router.

3.13.7 Advanced Setting

This page allows users to set advanced settings such as operation mode, channel bandwidth, guard interval, and aggregation MSDU for wireless data transmission.
Operation Mode
Mixed Mode the router can transmit data with the ways supported in both 802.11a/b/g and 802.11n standards. However, the entire wireless transmission will be slowed down if 802.11g or 802.11b wireless client is connected. Green Field to get the highest throughput, please choose such mode. Such mode can make the data transmission happening between 11n systems only. In addition, it does not have protection mechanism to avoid the conflict with neighboring devices of 802.11a/b/g. 20- the router will use 20Mhz for data transmission and receiving between the AP and the stations. 20/40 the router will use 20Mhz or 40Mhz for data transmission and receiving according to the station capability. Such channel can increase the performance for data transit. It is to assure the safety of propagation delays and reflections for the sensitive digital data. If you choose auto as guard interval, the AP router will choose short guard interval (increasing the wireless performance) or long guard interval for data transmit based on the station capability.
Channel Bandwidth
Guard Interval
Aggregation MSDU
Aggregation MSDU can combine frames with different sizes. It is used for improving MAC layers performance for some brands clients. The default setting is Enable.
3.13.8 WMM Configuration

WMM is an abbreviation of Wi-Fi Multimedia. It defines the priority levels for four access categories derived from 802.1d (prioritization tabs). The categories are designed with specific types of traffic, voice, video, best effort and low priority data. There are four accessing categories - AC_BE , AC_BK, AC_VI and AC_VO for WMM. APSD (automatic power-save delivery) is an enhancement over the power-save mechanisms supported by Wi-Fi networks. It allows devices to take more time in sleeping state and consume less power to improve the performance by minimizing transmission latency. Such function is designed for mobile and cordless phones that support VoIP mostly.
WMM Capable APSD Capable Aifsn
To apply WMM parameters for wireless data transmission, please click the Enable radio button. The default setting is Disable. It controls how long the client waits for each data transmission.
