<h1 id="syntax-conventions">Syntax Conventions</h1>

- The ZyWALL USG1000 may be referred to as the "ZyWALL", the "device", the "system" or the "product" in this User's Guide.   
- Product labels, screen names, field labels and field choices are all in bold font.   
- A key stroke is denoted by square brackets and uppercase text, for example, [ENTER] means the "enter" or "return" key on your keyboard.   
- “Enter” means for you to type one or more characters and then press the [ENTER] key. "Select" or "choose" means for you to use one of the predefined choices.   
- A right angle bracket (>) within a screen name denotes a mouse click. For example, Maintenance > Log > Log Setting means you first click Maintenance in the navigation panel, then the Log sub menu and finally the Log Setting tab to get to that screen.   
- Units of measurement may denote the "metric" value or the "scientific" value. For example, "k" for kilo may denote "1000" or "1024", "M" for mega may denote "1000000" or "1048576" and so on.   
- "e.g.," is a shorthand for "for instance", and "i.e.," means "that is" or "in other words".

<h1 id="introducing-the-zywall">Introducing the ZyWALL</h1>

This chapter gives an overview of the ZyWALL. It explains the front panel ports, LEDs, introduces the management methods, and lists different ways to start or stop the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="11-overview-and-key-default-settings">1.1 Overview and Key Default Settings</h1>

The ZyWALL is an Internet Security Gateway designed for Small and Medium Businesses (SMB). Its flexible configuration helps network administrators set up the network and enforce security policies efficiently. In addition, the ZyWALL provides excellent throughput, making it an ideal solution for reliable, secure service.

The physical ports on the front panel of the ZyWALL are called "ge1", "ge2", "ge3", and so on where "ge" stands for Gigabit Ethernet. By default "ge1" is mapped to port 1, "ge2" to port 2 and so on.

Also, by default "ge1" is the LAN interface, "ge2" and "ge3" are combined as the WAN_TRUNK. See Section 50.2 on page 652 for how to use the RESET button.

The Ethernet management interface can only be accessed from LAN side by default. The default management IP address is 192.168.1.1; the default login user name and password are "admin" and "1234" respectively.

To enable management access from the WAN, log into the web configurator, go to System > WWW, and change the default Deny to Accept in the rule in the Admin Service Control section.

You should configure the Network > Interface screens first to establish network connectivity before configuring security features such as firewall, VPN, content filtering, IDP and so on.

The following table describes the LEDs.

Table 1 Front Panel LEDs   

<table><tr><td>LED</td><td>COLOR</td><td>STATUS</td><td>DESCRIPTION</td></tr><tr><td rowspan="3">PWR</td><td></td><td>Off</td><td>The ZyWALL is turned off.</td></tr><tr><td>Green</td><td>On</td><td>The ZyWALL is turned on.</td></tr><tr><td>Red</td><td>On</td><td>There is a hardware component failure. Shut down the device, wait for a few minutes and then restart the device (see Section 1.4 on page 55). If the LED turns red again, then please contact your vendor.</td></tr><tr><td rowspan="3">SYS</td><td rowspan="3">Green</td><td>Off</td><td>The ZyWALL is not ready or has failed.</td></tr><tr><td>On</td><td>The ZyWALL is ready and running.</td></tr><tr><td>Flashing</td><td>The ZyWALL is restarting.</td></tr><tr><td rowspan="3">AUX</td><td rowspan="3">Green</td><td>Off</td><td>The AUX port is not connected.</td></tr><tr><td>Flashing</td><td>The AUX port is sending or receiving packets.</td></tr><tr><td>On</td><td>The AUX port is connected.</td></tr><tr><td rowspan="3">HDD</td><td rowspan="3">Green</td><td>Off</td><td>Reserved for future use.

<h1 id="13-management-overview">1.3 Management Overview</h1>

You can use the following ways to manage the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="web-configurator">Web Configurator</h1>

The web configurator allows easy ZyWALL setup and management using an Internet browser. This User's Guide provides information about the web configurator.

Figure 2 Managing the ZyWALL: Web Configurator

<h1 id="command-line-interface-cli">Command-Line Interface (CLI)</h1>

The CLI allows you to use text-based commands to configure the ZyWALL. You can access it using remote management (for example, SSH or Telnet) or via the console port. See the Command Reference Guide for more information about the CLI.

<h1 id="console-port">Console Port</h1>

You can use the console port to manage the ZyWALL. You have to use CLI commands, which are explained in the Command Reference Guide.

The default settings for the console port are as follows.

Table 2 Managing the ZyWALL: Console Port   

<table><tr><td>SETTING</td><td>VALUE</td></tr><tr><td>Speed</td><td>115200 bps</td></tr><tr><td>Data Bits</td><td>8</td></tr><tr><td>Parity</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>Stop Bit</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Flow Control</td><td>Off</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="14-starting-and-stopping-the-zywall">1.4 Starting and Stopping the ZyWALL</h1>

This section explains some of the ways to start and stop the ZyWALL. These are summarized below.

Table 3 Starting and Stopping the ZyWALL   

<table><tr><td>METHOD</td><td>DESCRIPTION</td></tr><tr><td>Turning on the power button</td><td>A cold start occurs when you turn on the power to the ZyWALL. The ZyWALL powers up, checks the hardware, and starts the system processes.</td></tr><tr><td>Rebooting the ZyWALL</td><td>A warm start (without powering down and powering up again) occurs when you use the Reboot button in the Reboot screen or when you use the reboot command. The ZyWALL writes all cached data to disk, stops the system processes, and then does a warm start.</td></tr><tr><td>Using the RESET button</td><td>If you press the RESET button, the ZyWALL sets the configuration to its default values and then reboots.</td></tr><tr><td>Using the shutdown command</td><td>The shutdown command writes all cached data to disk and stops the system processes. It does not turn off the power. You have to turn the power off and on manually to start the ZyWALL again. You should use this command before you turn off the ZyWALL.</td></tr><tr><td>Turning off the power button</td><td>Power off occurs when you turn off the power to the ZyWALL. The ZyWALL simply turns off. It does not stop the system processes or write cached data to disk.</td></tr></table>

![](images/bfc74d879a6b6b35fd301df31598165edbb39e445bb645a7315a073817959bea.jpg)

It is recommended you use the shutdown command before turning off the ZyWALL.

When you apply configuration files or running shell scripts, the ZyWALL does not stop or start the system processes. However, you might lose access to network resources temporarily while the ZyWALL is applying configuration files or running shell scripts.

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="21-features">2.1 Features</h1>

The ZyWALL's security features include VPN, firewall,anti-virus,content filtering,IDP (Intrusion Detection and Prevention),ADP (Anomaly Detection and Protection),and certificates. It also provides bandwidth management,NAT,port forwarding,policy routing, DHCP server and many other powerful features.

The rest of this section provides more information about the features of the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="high-availability">High Availability</h1>

To ensure the ZyWALL provides reliable, secure Internet access, set up one or more of the following:

- Multiple WAN ports and configure load balancing between these ports   
- A backup Internet connection   
- A backup ZyWALL in the event the master ZyWALL fails (device HA).

<h1 id="virtual-private-networks-vpn">Virtual Private Networks (VPN)</h1>

Use IPSec, SSL, or L2TP VPN to provide secure communication between two sites over the Internet or any insecure network that uses TCP/IP for communication. The ZyWALL also offers hub-and-spoke IPSec VPN.

<h1 id="flexible-security-zones">Flexible Security Zones</h1>

Many security settings are made by zone, not by interface, port, or network. As a result, it is much simpler to set up and to change security settings in the ZyWALL. You can create or remove zones, and you can assign each network, VLAN, or interface to any zone.

<h1 id="firewall">Firewall</h1>

The ZyWALL's firewall is a stateful inspection firewall. The ZyWALL restricts access by screening data packets against defined access rules. It can also inspect sessions. For example, traffic from one zone is not allowed unless it is initiated by a computer in another zone first.

<h1 id="intrusion-detection-and-prevention-idp">Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP)</h1>

IDP (Intrusion Detection and Protection) can detect malicious or suspicious packets and respond instantaneously. It detects pattern-based attacks in order to protect against network-based intrusions. See Section 29.8.2 on page 427 for a list of attacks that the ZyWALL can protect against. You can also create your own custom IDP rules.

<h1 id="anomaly-detection-and-prevention-adp">Anomaly Detection and Prevention (ADP)</h1>

ADP (Anomaly Detection and Prevention) can detect malicious or suspicious packets and respond instantaneously. It can detect:

- Anomalies based on violations of protocol standards (RFCs – Requests for Comments)   
- Abnormal flows such as port scans.

The ZyWALL's ADP protects against network-based intrusions. See Section 30.8 on page 450 and Section 30.9 on page 456 for more on the kinds of attacks that the ZyWALL can protect against. You can also create your own custom ADP rules.

<h1 id="bandwidth-management">Bandwidth Management</h1>

Bandwidth management allows you to allocate network resources according to defined policies. This policy-based bandwidth allocation helps your network to better handle applications such as Internet access, e-mail, Voice-over-IP (VoIP), video conferencing and other business-critical applications.

<h1 id="content-filter">Content Filter</h1>

Content filtering allows schools and businesses to create and enforce Internet access policies tailored to the needs of the organization.

You can also subscribe to category-based content filtering that allows your ZyWALL to check web sites against an external database of dynamically-updated ratings of millions of web sites. You then simply select categories to block or monitor, such as pornography or racial intolerance, from a pre-defined list.

<h1 id="anti-virus-scanner">Anti-Virus Scanner</h1>

With the anti-virus packet scanner, your ZyWALL scans files transmitting through the enabled interfaces into the network. The ZyWALL helps stop threats at the network edge before they reach the local host computers.

<h1 id="22-packet-flow">2.2 Packet Flow</h1>

The following is the key used to describe the packet flow in the ZyWALL.

Table 4 Packet Flow Key   

<table><tr><td>Ethernet</td><td>The interface on which the packet is received or sent</td></tr><tr><td>VLAN</td><td>Virtual LAN</td></tr><tr><td>Encap</td><td>The PPPoE or PPTP encapsulation used</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>ALG</td><td>Application Layer Gateway</td></tr></table>

Table 4 Packet Flow Key   

<table><tr><td>AC</td><td>Application Classifier is the Application Protocol (AP) layer-7 classifier.</td></tr><tr><td>DNAT</td><td>Destination NAT</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Routing</td><td>Routing includes policy routes, interface routing, static routes and load balancing for example.</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>FW</td><td>Firewall (Through ZyWALL)</td></tr><tr><td>zFW</td><td>Firewall (To ZyWALL)</td></tr><tr><td>IDP</td><td>Intrusion Detection &amp; Protection</td></tr><tr><td>ADP</td><td>Anomaly Detection and Protection</td></tr><tr><td>AP</td><td>Application Patrol</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>CF</td><td>Content Filtering</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>SNAT</td><td>Source NAT</td></tr><tr><td>IPSec D/E</td><td>VPN Decryption/Encryption</td></tr><tr><td>BWM</td><td>Bandwidth Management</td></tr><tr><td>RM</td><td>Remote Management (System)</td></tr><tr><td>AV</td><td>Anti-Virus</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="23-applications">2.3 Applications</h1>

These are some example applications for your ZyWALL. See also Chapter 6 on page 125 for configuration tutorial examples.

<h1 id="231-vpn-connectivity">2.3.1 VPN Connectivity</h1>

Set up VPN tunnels with other companies, branch offices, telecommuters, and business travelers to provide secure access to your network. You can also set up additional connections to the Internet to provide better service.

![](images/5271e991586f27cf0d838939d8b6cf1bc2288842825a580548d48165e4468268.jpg)  
Figure 3 Applications: VPN Connectivity

<h1 id="232-ssl-vpn-network-access">2.3.2 SSL VPN Network Access</h1>

You can configure the ZyWALL to provide SSL VPN network access to remote users. There are two SSL VPN network access modes: reverse proxy and full tunnel.

<h1 id="2321-reverse-proxy-mode">2.3.2.1 Reverse Proxy Mode</h1>

In reverse proxy mode, the ZyWALL is a proxy that acts on behalf of the local network servers (such as your web and mail servers). As the final destination, the ZyWALL appears to be the server to remote users. This provides an added layer of protection for your internal servers.

With reverse proxy mode, remote users can easily access any web-based applications on the local network by clicking on links or entering the provided URL. You do not have to install additional client software on the remote user computers for access.

![](images/2ef758cba70aee27e0a5941f4f4e1ff69b2f0085f3739be6c288c65ff680d004.jpg)  
Figure 4 Network Access Mode: Reverse Proxy

<h1 id="2322-full-tunnel-mode">2.3.2.2 Full Tunnel Mode</h1>

In full tunnel mode, a virtual connection is created for remote users with private IP addresses in the same subnet as the local network. This allows them to access network resources in the same way as if they were part of the internal network.

![](images/adfc9bee166065146f2180d9b0fd6f6a6b06d9da06391cae3bc9e476f130bcc8.jpg)  
Figure 5 Network Access Mode: Full Tunnel Mode

<h1 id="233-user-aware-access-control">2.3.3 User-Aware Access Control</h1>

Set up security policies that restrict access to sensitive information and shared resources based on the user who is trying to access it.

![](images/f349326b5a08306f4546c7cba7eadf15a25fd9b2128cee77d5c5e8926acee326.jpg)  
Figure 6 Applications: User-Aware Access Control

<h1 id="234-multiple-wan-interfaces">2.3.4 Multiple WAN Interfaces</h1>

Set up multiple connections to the Internet on the same port, or set up multiple connections on different ports. In either case, you can balance the loads between them.

![](images/127b2e06cb216c46ec563ced7952fbae1c59a4272525c4f16efe7d6f3850e900.jpg)  
Figure 7 Applications: Multiple WAN Interfaces

<h1 id="235-device-ha">2.3.5 Device HA</h1>

Set up an additional ZyWALL as a backup gateway to ensure the default gateway is always available for the network.

Select Aggressive to allow more incoming connections from dynamic IP addresses to use separate passwords.Note: Multiple SAs (security associations) connecting through a secure gateway must have the same negotiation mode.</td></tr><tr><td>Encryption Algorithm</td><td>When DES is used for data communications, both sender and receiver must know the same secret key, which can be used to encrypt and decrypt the message or to generate and verify a message authentication code. The DES encryption algorithm uses a 56-bit key. Triple DES (3DES) is a variation on DES that uses a 168-bit key. As a result, 3DES is more secure than DES. It also requires more processing power, resulting in increased latency and decreased throughput. AES128 uses a 128-bit key and is faster than 3DES. AES192 uses a 192-bit key and AES256 uses a 256-bit key. Select Null to have no encryption.</td></tr><tr><td>Authentication Algorithm</td><td>MD5 (Message Digest 5) and SHA1 (Secure Hash Algorithm) are hash algorithms used to authenticate packet data. The SHA1 algorithm is generally considered stronger than MD5, but is slower. Select MD5 for minimal security and SHA1 for maximum security.</td></tr><tr><td>Key Group</td><td>You must choose a key group for phase 1 IKE setup. DH1 (default) refers to Diffie-Hellman Group 1 a 768 bit random number. DH2 refers to Diffie-Hellman Group 2 a 1024 bit (1Kb) random number. DH5 refers to Diffie-Hellman Group 5 a 1536 bit random number.</td></tr><tr><td>SA Life Time (Seconds)</td><td>Define the length of time before an IKE SA automatically renegotiates in this field. The minimum value is 60 seconds.A short SA Life Time increases security by forcing the two VPN gateways to update the encryption and authentication keys. However, every time the VPN tunnel renegotiates, all users accessing remote resources are temporarily disconnected.</td></tr><tr><td>NAT Traversal</td><td>Select this check box to enable NAT traversal. NAT traversal allows you to set up a VPN connection when there are NAT routers between the two IPSec routers.Note: The remote IPSec router must also have NAT traversal enabled. See Section 20.4.2.2 on page 311 for more information.</td></tr><tr><td>Dead Peer Detection (DPD)</td><td>Select this check box if you want the ZyWALL to make sure the remote IPSec router is there before it transmits data through the IKE SA. If there has been no traffic for at least 15 seconds, the ZyWALL sends a message to the remote IPSec server. If the remote IPSec server responds, the ZyWALL transmits the data.

Phases: IKE (Internet Key Exchange) negotiation has two phases. A phase 1 exchange establishes an IKE SA (Security Association) and phase 2 (Key Exchange) uses the SA to negotiate SAs for IPSec.

![](images/902cd0e4f7eb3cf237b1edfccd38afeabb81cb66137e7a33d0274cde9fe41e85.jpg)

Multiple SAs connecting through a secure gateway must have the same negotiation mode.

Negotiation Mode: Select Main for identity protection. Select Aggressive to allow more incoming connections from dynamic IP addresses to use separate passwords.

Proposal: 3DES and AES use encryption. The longer the AES key, the higher the security (this may affect throughput). Null uses no encryption.

Authentication Algorithm: MD5 gives minimal security. SHA-1 gives higher security.

Key Group: DH5 is more secure than DH1 or DH2 (although it may affect throughput).

SA Life Time: Set how often the ZyWALL renegotiates the IKE SA. A short SA Life Time increases security, but renegotiation temporarily disconnects the VPN tunnel.

NAT Traversal: Select this if the VPN tunnel must pass through NAT (there is a NAT router between the IPSec devices).

Use Dead Peer Detection (DPD) to have the ZyWALL make sure the remote IPSec router is there before transmitting data through the IKE SA. If the remote IPSec server does not respond, the ZyWALL shuts down the IKE SA.

<h1 id="configuration-basics">Configuration Basics</h1>

This section provides information to help you configure the ZyWALL effectively. Some of it is helpful when you are just getting started. Some of it is provided for your reference when you configure various features in the ZyWALL.

- Section 5.1 on page 111 introduces (very briefly) how granular the configuration is in the ZyWALL.   
- Section 5.2 on page 112 introduces some differences in terminology and organization between the ZyWALL and other routers, particularly ZyNOS routers.   
- Section 5.3 on page 112 explains the differences between physical ports, interfaces, and zones in the ZyWALL.   
- Section 5.4 on page 114 identifies the features you should configure before and after you configure the main screens for each feature. For example, if you want to configure a trunk for load-balancing, you should configure the member interfaces before you configure the trunk. After you configure the trunk, you should configure a policy route for it as well. (You might also have to configure criteria for the policy route.)   
- Section 5.5 on page 122 identifies the features (such as the criteria in a policy route, mentioned above) that are primarily used to store information used by other features   
Section 5.6 on page 123 introduces some of the tools available for system management.

<h1 id="51-granular-configuration">5.1 Granular Configuration</h1>

ZyWALL configuration is granular. When you configure a feature, you can often reuse settings that you have already configured (in one screen) in other screens. These reusable settings are called objects.

For example, when you set up a policy route, each criterion is an object. You can use criterion that you have already configured or select Create Object to configure new criteria. Any objects that you create in this screen, you can reuse --without configuring them again--in other policy routes or in other features such as firewall rules or remote management.

For a list of common objects, see Section 5.5 on page 122.

<h1 id="52-terminology-in-the-zywall">5.2 Terminology in the ZyWALL</h1>

This section highlights some differences in terminology or organization between the ZyWALL and other routers, particularly ZyNOS routers.

<h1 id="53-physical-ports-interfaces-and-zones">5.3 Physical Ports, Interfaces, and Zones</h1>

If you want to configure the ZyWALL effectively, you should understand the differences between physical ports, interfaces, and zones. The following illustration provides an overview of the relationship between physical ports, interfaces, and zones in the ZyWALL. It also identifies the types of features you can configure with each one.

Table 26 Physical Ports, Interfaces, and Zones   

<table><tr><td>Zones (LAN, DMZ, WAN, ...)</td><td>Used in firewall, IDP, remote management, anti-virus, ADP, application patrol</td></tr><tr><td>Interfaces (Ethernet, VLAN,...)</td><td>Used in VPN, zones,trunks,device HA,DDNS,policy routes,static routes,HTTP redirect,application patrol,and virtual server</td></tr><tr><td>Physical Ports (P1,P2,P3,P4,P5)</td><td>Used in port groups.</td></tr></table>

A physical port is the place to which you connect the cable. As shown above, you do not usually configure physical ports to use various features. You configure interfaces and zones. The ZyWALL supports one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-none relationships between physical ports and interfaces.

There are many types of interfaces in the ZyWALL. In addition to being used in various features, interfaces also describe the network that is directly connected to the ZyWALL.

- Port groups create a hardware connection between physical ports at the layer-2 (MAC address) level.   
- Ethernet interfaces are the foundation for defining other interfaces and network policies. You also configure RIP and OSPF in these interfaces.   
- VLAN interfaces recognize tagged frames. The ZyWALL automatically adds or removes the tags as needed. Each VLAN can only be associated with one Ethernet interface.   
- Bridge interfaces create a software connection between Ethernet or VLAN interfaces at the layer-2 (data link, MAC address) level. Then, you can configure the IP address and subnet mask of the bridge. It is also possible to configure zone-level security between the member interfaces in the bridge.   
- PPPoE/PPTP interfaces support Point-to-Point Protocols (PPP). ISP accounts are required for PPPoE/PPTP interfaces.   
- Virtual interfaces increase the amount of routing information in the ZyWALL. There are three types: virtual Ethernet interfaces (also known as IP alias), virtual VLAN interfaces, and virtual bridge interfaces.   
- The auxiliary interface, along with an external modem, provides an interface the ZyWALL can use to dial out. This interface can be used as a backup WAN interface, for example. The auxiliary interface controls the AUX port.

Zones are used for security policies. A zone is simply a group of interfaces and/or VPN tunnels; by default, the ZyWALL has LAN, WAN and DMZ zones. Each interface and VPN tunnel can be assigned to one and only one zone. You can add, change, or remove the interfaces and VPN tunnels in each zone without affecting the settings that are based on zones.

<h1 id="531-network-topology-example">5.3.1 Network Topology Example</h1>

The following example is used to further explain the differences between interfaces and zones.

Figure 43 Interfaces and Zones: Example

- The LAN zone contains the ge1 (Gigabit Ethernet 1) interface. This is a protected zone and uses private IP addresses. ge1 uses 192.168.1.1 and the connected devices use IP addresses in the 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 range.   
- The WAN zone contains interfaces ge2 and ge3. They use public IP addresses to connect to the Internet.   
- The DMZ zone contains interface ge4. The DMZ zone has servers that are available to the public. ge4 uses private IP address 192.168.3.1 and the connected devices use private IP addresses in the 192.168.3.2 to 192.168.3.254 range.   
- The DMZ-2 zone contains interface ge5 and has servers that are available to the public. ge5 and the connected servers use public IP addresses.

This example is also used in several examples in Section 5.4 on page 114.

<h1 id="54-feature-configuration-overview">5.4 Feature Configuration Overview</h1>

This section provides information about configuring the main features in the ZyWALL. The features are listed in the same sequence as the menu item(s) in the web configurator. Each feature is organized as shown below.

<h1 id="541-feature">5.4.1 Feature</h1>

This provides a brief description. See the appropriate chapter(s) in this User's Guide for more information about any feature.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>This shows you the sequence of menu items and tabs you should click to find the main screen(s) for this feature. See the web help or the related User's Guide chapter for information about each screen.</td></tr><tr><td>PREREQUISITES</td><td>These are other features you should configure before you configure the main screen(s) for this feature.
If you did not configure one of the prerequisites first, you can often select an option to create a new object. After you create the object you return to the main screen to finish configuring the feature.
You may not have to configure everything in the list of prerequisites. For example, you do not have to create a schedule for a policy route unless time is one of the criterion.</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>There are two uses for this.
These are other features you should usually configure or check right after you configure the main screen(s) for this feature. For example, you should usually create a policy route for a VPN tunnel.
You have to delete the references to this feature before you can delete any settings. For example, you have to delete (or modify) all the policy routes that refer to a VPN tunnel before you can delete the VPN tunnel.</td></tr></table>

Example: This provides a simple example to show you how to configure this feature. The example is usually based on the network topology in Figure 43 on page 114.

![](images/281ce0aed7ec9a54f3f5e26451b9c210509632d892124fd278110d4cc445930d.jpg)

PREQUISITES or WHERE USED does not appear if there are no prerequisites or references in other features to this one. For example, no other features reference DDNS entries, so there is no WHERE USED entry.

<h1 id="542-interface">5.4.2 Interface</h1>

See Section 5.3 on page 112 for background information.

![](images/d38e89234428d286a4d4ec3bc227e0d9cc09d13278e3b0969b407482c80b7600.jpg)

When you create an interface, no security is applied on it until you assign it to a zone.

Most of the features that use interfaces support Ethernet, VLAN, bridge, and PPPoE/PPTP interfaces.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; Interface (except Network &gt; Interface &gt; Trunk)</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>OSPF (Ethernet interfaces), ISP accounts (PPPoE/PPTP interfaces)</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>Zones, trunks, IPSec VPN, device HA, DDNS, policy routes, static routes, HTTP redirect, virtual server, application patrol</td></tr></table>

Example: The ge5 interface is in the DMZ-2 zone and uses a public IP address. To configure ge5's settings, click Network > Interface > Ethernet and then ge5's Edit icon.

<h1 id="543-trunks">5.4.3 Trunks</h1>

Use trunks to set up load balancing using two or more interfaces.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; Interface &gt; Trunk</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>Policy routes</td></tr></table>

Example: See Chapter 6 on page 125.

<h1 id="544-ipsec-vpn">5.4.4 IPSec VPN</h1>

Use IPSec VPN to provide secure communication between two sites over the Internet or any insecure network that uses TCP/IP for communication. The ZyWALL also offers hub-and-spoke VPN.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>VPN &gt; IPSec VPN; you can also use the VPN Setup Wizard, which handles most of the prerequisites for you.</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGISITES</td><td>Interfaces, certificates (authentication), authentication methods (extended authentication), addresses (local network, remote network, NAT), to-ZyWALL firewall, firewall</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>Policy routes, zones, L2TP VPN</td></tr></table>

Example: See Chapter 6 on page 125.

<h1 id="545-ssl-vpn">5.4.5 SSL VPN</h1>

Use SSL VPN to provide secure network access to remote users.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>VPN &gt; SSL VPN</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces, SSL application, users, user groups, addresses (network list, IP pool for assigning to clients, DNS and WINS server addresses), to-ZyWALL firewall, firewall</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>Policy routes, zones</td></tr></table>

Example: See Chapter 6 on page 125.

<h1 id="546-l2tp-vpn">5.4.6 L2TP VPN</h1>

Use L2TP VPN to let remote users use the L2TP and IPSec client software included with their computers' operating systems to securely connect to the network behind the ZyWALL.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>VPN &gt; L2TP VPN</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces, IPSec VPN connection, certificates (authentication), authentication methods (extended authentication), addresses (local network, remote network, NAT, IP pool for assigning to clients, DNS and WINS server addresses), to-ZyWALL firewall, firewall</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>The IPSec VPN connection used for L2TP VPN can be used in policy routes and zones</td></tr></table>

Example: See Chapter 26 on page 351.

<h1 id="547-zones">5.4.7 Zones</h1>

See Section 5.3 on page 112 for background information. A zone is a group of interfaces and VPN tunnels. The ZyWALL uses zones, not interfaces, in many security settings, such as firewall rules and remote management.

Zones cannot overlap. Each interface and VPN tunnel can be assigned to at most one zone. Virtual interfaces are automatically assigned to the same zone as the interface on which they run.

When you create a zone, the ZyWALL does not create any firewall rules, assign an IDP profile, or configure remote management for the new zone.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; Zone</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGISITES</td><td>Interfaces, IPSec VPN, SSL VPN</td></tr><tr><td>WHERE USED</td><td>Firewall, IDP, remote management, anti-virus, ADP, application patrol</td></tr></table>

Example: For example, to create the DMZ-2 zone and add ge5 as in the network topology example, click Network > Zone and then the Add icon.

<h1 id="548-device-ha">5.4.8 Device HA</h1>

Use device HA to create redundant backup gateways. The ZyWALL runs VRRP v2. You can only set up device HA with other ZyWALLs of the same model running the same firmware version.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Device HA</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces (with a static IP address), to-ZyWALL firewall</td></tr></table>

Example: See Chapter 6 on page 125.

<h1 id="549-ddns">5.4.9 DDNS</h1>

Dynamic DNS maps a domain name to a dynamic IP address. The ZyWALL helps maintain this mapping.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; DDNS</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="5410-policy-routes">5.4.10 Policy Routes</h1>

Use policy routes to control the routing of packets through the ZyWALL's interfaces, trunks, and VPN connections. You also use policy routes for bandwidth management (out of the ZyWALL), port triggering, and general NAT on the source address. You have to set up the criteria, next-hops, and NAT settings in other screens first.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; Routing &gt; Policy Route</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Criteria: users, user groups, interfaces (incoming), IPSec VPN (incoming), addresses (source, destination), address groups (source, destination), schedules, services, service groups
Next-hop: addresses (HOST gateway), IPSec VPN, SSL VPN, trunks, interfaces NAT: addresses (translated address), services and service groups (port triggering)</td></tr></table>

Example: You have an FTP server connected to ge 4 (in the DMZ zone). You want to limit the amount of FTP traffic that goes out from the FTP server through your WAN connection.

1 Create an address object for the FTP server (Object > Address).

2 Click Network > Routing > Policy Route to go to the policy route configuration screen. Add a policy route.   
3 Name the policy route.   
4 Select the interface that the traffic comes in through (ge4 in this example).   
5 Select the FTP server's address as the source address.   
6 You don't need to specify the destination address or the schedule.   
7 For the service, select FTP.   
8 For the Next Hop fields, select Interface as the Type if you have a single WAN connection or Trunk if you have multiple WAN connections.   
9 Select the interface that you are using for your WAN connection (ge2 and ge3 are WAN interfaces by default). If you have multiple WAN connections, select the trunk.   
10 Specify the amount of bandwidth FTP traffic can use. You may also want to set a low priority for FTP traffic.

![](images/81d78277516c2fdfc1a89e99914847b3501de48439f463a032346991ad44cb4b.jpg)

The ZyWALL checks the policy routes in the order that they are listed. So make sure that your custom policy route comes before any other routes that would also match the FTP traffic.

<h1 id="5411-static-routes">5.4.11 Static Routes</h1>

Use static routes to tell the ZyWALL about networks not directly connected to the ZyWALL.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; Routing &gt; Static Route</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="5412-firewall">5.4.12 Firewall</h1>

The firewall controls the travel of traffic between or within zones. You can also configure the firewall to control traffic for virtual server (port forwarding) and policy routes (NAT). You can configure firewall rules based on schedules, specific users (or user groups), source ordestination addresses (or address groups) and services (or service groups). Each of these objects must be configured in a different screen.

To-ZyWALL firewall rules control access to the ZyWALL. Configure to-ZyWALL firewall rules for remote management. By default, the firewall allows any computer from the LAN zone to access or manage the ZyWALL. The ZyWALL drops packets from the WAN or DMZ zone to the ZyWALL itself, except for Device HA and VPN traffic.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Firewall</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Zones, schedules, users, user groups, addresses (source, destination), address groups (source, destination), services, service groups</td></tr></table>

Example: Suppose you have a SIP proxy server connected to the DMZ-2 zone for VoIP calls. You could configure a firewall rule to allow VoIP sessions from the SIP proxy server on DMZ-2 to the LAN so VoIP users on the LAN can receive calls.

1 Create a VoIP service object for UDP port 5060 traffic (Object > Service).

2 Create an address object for the VoIP server (Object > Address).   
3 Click Firewall to go to the firewall configuration.   
4 Select from the DMZ-2 zone to the LAN zone, and add a firewall rule using the items you have configured.

- You don't need to specify the schedule or the user.   
- In the Source field, select the address object of the VoIP server.   
- You don't need to specify the destination address.   
- Leave the Access field set to Allow and the Log field set to No.

![](images/635b765e2e9163743aede58f93bd3806cfd1bb9c37e774b03b81b10937b69907.jpg)

The ZyWALL checks the firewall rules in order. Make sure each rule is in the correct place in the sequence.

<h1 id="5413-application-patrol">5.4.13 Application Patrol</h1>

Use application patrol to control which individuals can use which services through the ZyWALL (and when they can do so). You can also specify allowed amounts of bandwidth and priorities. You must subscribe to use application patrol. You can subscribe using the Licensing > Registration screens or one of the wizards.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>AppPatrol</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Registration, zones, Schedules, users, user groups, addresses (source, destination), address groups (source, destination). These are only used as criteria in exceptions and conditions.</td></tr></table>

Example: Suppose you want to allow vice president Bob to use BitTorrent and block everyone else from using it.

1 Create a user account for Bob (User/Group).   
2 Click AppPatrol > Peer to Peer to go to the application patrol configuration screen. Click the BitTorrent application patrol entry's Edit icon.

- Set the default policy's access to Drop.   
- Add another policy.   
- Select the user account that you created for Bob.   
- You can leave the source, destination and log settings at the default.

![](images/d32cd188dfe89a73b972230fafe4882d709bb88f0a9edba6eeec8957777794dd.jpg)

With this example, Bob would have to log in using his account. If you do not want him to have to log in, you might create an exception policy with Bob's computer IP address as the source.

<h1 id="5414-anti-virus">5.4.14 Anti-Virus</h1>

Use anti-virus to detect and take action on viruses. You must subscribe to use anti-virus. You can subscribe using the Licensing > Registration screens or one of the wizards.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Anti-X &gt; AV</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Registration, zones</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="5415-idp">5.4.15 IDP</h1>

Use IDP to detect and take action on malicious or suspicious packets. You must subscribe to use IDP. You can subscribe using the Licensing > Registration screens or one of the wizards.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Anti-X &gt; IDP</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Registration, zones</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="5416-adp">5.4.16 ADP</h1>

Use ADP to detect and take action on traffic and protocol anomalies.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Anti-X &gt; ADP</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Zones</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="5417-content-filter">5.4.17 Content Filter</h1>

Use content filtering to block or allow access to specific categories of web site content, individual web sites and web features (such as cookies). You can define which user accounts (or groups) can access what content and at what times. You must have a subscription in order to use the category-based content filtering. You can subscribe using the menu item or one of the wizards.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Anti-X &gt; Content Filter</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGISITES</td><td>Registration, addresses (source), schedules, users, user groups</td></tr></table>

Example: You can configure a policy that blocks Bill's access to arts and entertainment web pages during the workday. You must have already subscribed to the content filter service.

1 Create a user account for Bill if you have not done so already (User/Group).   
2 Create a schedule for the work day (Object > Schedule).   
3 Click Anti-X > Content Filter > Filter Profile. Click the Add icon to go to the screen where you can configure a category-based profile.   
4 Name the profile and enable it.   
5 Enable the external web filter service.   
6 Decide what to do for matched web sites (Block in this example), unrated web sites and what to do when the category-based content filtering service is not available.   
7 Select the Arts/Entertainment category (you need to click Advanced to display it).   
8 Click OK.   
9 Click General to go to the content filter general configuration screen.   
10 Enable the content filter.

11 Add a policy that uses the schedule, the filtering profile and the user that you created.

<h1 id="5418-virtual-server-port-forwarding">5.4.18 Virtual Server (Port Forwarding)</h1>

Use this to change the address and/or port number of packets coming in from a specified interface. This is also known as port forwarding.

The ZyWALL does not check to-ZyWALL firewall rules for packets that are redirected by virtual server. It does check regular (through-ZyWALL) firewall rules.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; Virtual Server</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGISITES</td><td>Interfaces, addresses (HOST)</td></tr></table>

Example: Suppose you have an FTP server with a private IP address connected to a DMZ port. You could configure a virtual server rule to forwards FTP sessions from the WAN to the DMZ.

1 Click Network > Virtual Server to configure the virtual server. Add an entry.   
2 Name the entry.   
3 Select the WAN interface that the FTP traffic is to come in through (in this example, ge2 or ge3.)   
4 Specify the public WAN IP address where the ZyWALL will receive the FTP packets.   
5 In the Mapped IP field, list the IP address of the FTP server. The ZyWALL will forward the packets received for the original IP address.   
6 In Mapping Type, select Port.   
7 Enter 21 in both the Original and the Mapped Port fields.

<h1 id="5419-http-redirect">5.4.19 HTTP Redirect</h1>

Configure this feature to have the ZyWALL transparently forward HTTP (web) traffic to a proxy server. This can speed up web browsing because the proxy server keeps copies of the web pages that have been accessed so they are readily available the next time one of your users needs to access that page.

The ZyWALL does not check to-ZyWALL firewall rules for packets that are redirected by HTTP redirect. It does check regular (through-ZyWALL) firewall rules.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; HTTP Redirect</td></tr><tr><td>PREREGUISITES</td><td>Interfaces</td></tr></table>

Example: Suppose you want HTTP requests from your LAN to go to a HTTP proxy server at IP address 192.168.3.80.

1 Click Network > HTTP Redirect.   
2 Add an entry.   
3 Name the entry.   
4 Select the interface from which you want to redirect incoming HTTP requests (ge1 is a LAN interface by default).   
5 Specify the IP address of the HTTP proxy server.   
6 Specify the port number to use for the HTTP traffic that you forward to the proxy server.

<h1 id="5420-alg">5.4.20 ALG</h1>

The ZyWALL's Application Layer Gateway (ALG) allows VoIP and FTP applications to go through NAT on the ZyWALL. You can also specify additional signaling port numbers.

<table><tr><td>MENU ITEM(S)</td><td>Network &gt; ALG</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="55-objects">5.5 Objects</h1>

Objects store information and are referenced by other features. If you update this information in response to changes, the ZyWALL automatically propagates the change through the features that use the object.

The following table introduces the objects. You can also use this table when you want to delete an object because you have to delete references to the object first.

<h1 id="61-interfaces-and-zones">6.1 Interfaces and Zones</h1>

The following example shows how to use port grouping, Ethernet interfaces, trunks, and zones to set up the following configuration.

Table 29 Interfaces and Zones Example   

<table><tr><td>PHYSICAL PORT</td><td>ETHERNET INTERFACE</td><td>SETTINGS</td><td>TRUNK</td><td>ZONE</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>ge1</td><td>192.168.1.1/24, DHCP server</td><td>---</td><td>LAN</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>ge1</td><td>---</td><td>---</td><td>---</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>ge3</td><td>DHCP client</td><td>WAN_TRUNK</td><td>WAN</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>ge4</td><td>172.23.37.240/24</td><td>WAN_TRUNK</td><td>WAN</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>ge5</td><td>10.0.0.1/24, DHCP server</td><td>---</td><td>DMZ</td></tr></table>

In this example, ge2 does not have any physical ports assigned to it. The example begins with the default interface configuration.

<h1 id="611-set-up-port-grouping">6.1.1 Set up Port Grouping</h1>

Ethernet interface ge2 does not have any physical ports associated with it, so it does not matter to which zone it is assigned or if it is assigned to any zone at all. The only change you must make is to remove ge4 from the DMZ zone and add it to the WAN zone. The following steps accomplish this by removing ge4 from the DMZ zone and changing WAN member ge2 into ge4, leaving ge2 unassigned to any zone.

1 Click Network > Zone. The following screen appears.

Figure 59 VPN Example

In this example, the ZyWALL is router X (172.23.37.240/24), and the remote IPSec router is router Y (220.123.143.10/24). Create the VPN tunnel between IP addresses 192.168.1.33 to 192.168.1.232 on our local network A and the remote network B (192.168.10.0/24).

The ZyWALL has its default settings.

<h1 id="621-set-up-the-ethernet-interfaces-and-zones">6.2.1 Set up the Ethernet Interfaces and Zones</h1>

This example uses the default Ethernet interface and zone settings so they do not need to be configured.

<h1 id="622-set-up-the-vpn-gateway">6.2.2 Set up the VPN Gateway</h1>

The VPN gateway manages the IKE SA. You do not have to set up any other objects before you configure the VPN gateway because this VPN tunnel does not use any certificates or extended authentication.

1 Click VPN > IPSec VPN > VPN Gateway, and then click the Add icon.   
2 Give the VPN gateway a name ("VPN_GW_EXAMPLE"). Use the default proposal settings in this example--DES encryption, MD5 authentication, and DH1 key group. In the Property section, select ge4 in the Interface field, and enter 220.123.143.10 in the first Secure Gateway Address field. In the Authentication Method section, the pre-shared key is 12345678, and the routers are using each other's IP addresses for authentication. Click OK.

<h1 id="624-set-up-the-policy-route-for-the-vpn-tunnel">6.2.4 Set up the Policy Route for the VPN Tunnel</h1>

You should create a new policy route to use the VPN tunnel. This policy route will only use the existing address objects, so you do not have to create any additional objects first.

1 Click Network > Routing > Policy Route. You want this policy route to have higher priority than the default policy route for the trunk, so click the Add icon at the top of the column, not the one next to the existing policy route.

![](images/efc2eca9f84021330fdb7d789036c17273dc75212aeaa1b029ce2f0e3722342e.jpg)  
Figure 63 Network > Routing > Policy Route

2 Configure the policy route as shown next. This policy route applies to traffic from gel1. The source address and destination address must be the same ones represented by the address objects that you used in the VPN connection. The next-hop is the VPN connection that you created. Click OK.

![](images/bf4b9d84ba2ba64242e6c7453f6771c2026d87398e9fb8c0d82c68ba3de68376.jpg)  
Figure 64 Network > Routing > Policy Route > Add

Because the new VPN connection has not been assigned to a zone yet, there are no restrictions (for example, firewall) on traffic to or from this VPN connection. You should set up the VPN settings on the remote IPSec router and try to establish the VPN tunnel before continuing.

<h1 id="625-set-up-the-zone-for-the-vpn-tunnel">6.2.5 Set up the Zone for the VPN Tunnel</h1>

The new VPN connection has not been assigned to a zone yet. In this example, you want to set up different security policies for VPN tunnels than you do for the default LAN, DMZ, and WAN zones, so create a new zone called VPN.

1 Click Network > Zone. Click the Add icon.   
2 Give the zone a name ("VPN"), and add the VPN tunnel to it. Select IPSEC/

VPN_CONNEXAMPLE and click the right arrow to add it to the Member list. Click OK.

![](images/7ddc97e773f50adb9ec3e2b8212f2ea71312a2a0b18af4279fcd16f0c75f1257.jpg)  
Figure 65 Network > Zone > Add

By default, there are no security restrictions on the new zone, so, next, you should set up security policies (firewall rules, IDP, and so on) accordingly. Make sure all the firewalls between the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router allow UDP port 500 (IKE) and IP protocol 50 (AH) or 51 (ESP). You did not enable NAT traversal, so you do not have to configure the firewalls to allow UDP port 4500.

<h1 id="63-device-ha">6.3 Device HA</h1>

This example is going to show you how to set up device HA as illustrated below.

![](images/f4d60bb8f564d532093e6eacbe2f46e19e84cc7c27a625003af6346fedb41420.jpg)  
Figure 66 Device HA Example

In this example, router A is the default gateway for the network and uses IP address 192.168.1.1. This is the default gateway IP address for the network. There are two ZyWALL routers to ensure this gateway is available. Router A is the master; router B is the backup. Router B has a management IP address of 192.168.1.101.

The ZyWALL has its default settings. Configure the master first because you can synchronize the backup with the master later.

<h1 id="631-set-up-dns-for-the-virtual-router">6.3.1 Set up DNS for the Virtual Router</h1>

You can use a fully-qualified domain name, instead of an IP address, for the virtual router. If you want to do this, you should set up DNS before you configure the VRRP groups and synchronization. In this example, you are going to use the IP address.

<h1 id="632-set-up-the-vrrp-groups-on-the-master">6.3.2 Set up the VRRP Groups on the Master</h1>

You have to set up one VRRP group for each interface with a static IP address on which you want to set up device HA. In this example, create two VRRP groups, one for ge1 and one for ge4.

1 Click Device HA > VRRP Group, and then click the Add icon.   
2 Give the VRRP group a name and virtual router ID, and select the interface ge1. This is the master router, and you are not going to use authentication. Click OK.

Once you configure an interface in a VRRP group, you should not configure the interface to have a dynamic IP address.

<h1 id="633-set-up-the-password-for-synchronization">6.3.3 Set up the Password for Synchronization</h1>

1 Click Device HA > Synchronize.   
2 Type the password for synchronization in the Password field. This password does not have to be the same as the password for the admin account, but you have to set the same password in the master and backup. Click Apply.

Figure 70 Device HA > Synchronize

<h1 id="634-finish-configuring-the-master">6.3.4 Finish Configuring the Master</h1>

Finish configuring the master. The backup router will get these updates later, when it synchronizes with the master.

<h1 id="635-set-up-the-ethernet-interfaces-on-the-backup">6.3.5 Set up the Ethernet Interfaces on the Backup</h1>

On the backup ZyWALL, ge1 should be configured exactly the same way it is configured on the master, including the same IP address. Therefore, you should not configure the backup while it is connected to the same network as the master, or there will be an IP address conflict.

You do not have to configure any other interfaces, including the one that is connected to the Internet, because the backup will get this configuration when it synchronizes with the master.

<h1 id="636-set-up-the-vrrp-groups-on-the-backup">6.3.6 Set up the VRRP Groups on the Backup</h1>

You should set up the same VRRP groups on the backup that you set up on the master. The only difference is the role. In each VRRP group, select Backup, instead of Master, in the Role field. Therefore, you will also set up the management IP address for the backup. The VRRP group for ge1 is shown below.

![](images/cc88f1b176eea1382267ba1606f201ea9b28491fc894abe3c13547fee1fb2b16.jpg)

You can also set up the backup to synchronize with the master at regular intervals.

<h1 id="64-user-aware-access-control">6.4 User-Aware Access Control</h1>

You can configure many policies and security settings for specific users or groups of users. This is illustrated in the following example, where you will set up the following policies. This is a simple example that does not include priorities for different types of traffic. See Section 27.4 on page 380 for more on bandwidth management.

Table 33 User-Aware Access Control Example

The users are authenticated by an external RADIUS server at 192.168.1.200.

First, set up the user accounts and user groups in the ZyWALL. Then, set up user authentication using the RADIUS server. Finally, set up the policies in the table above. The ZyWALL has its default settings.

<h1 id="641-set-up-user-accounts">6.4.1 Set up User Accounts</h1>

Set up one user account for each user account in the RADIUS server. If it is possible to export user names from the RADIUS server to a text file, then you might create a script to create the user accounts instead. This example uses the web configurator.

1 Click User/Group > User. Click the Add icon.   
2 Enter the same user name that is used in the RADIUS server, and set the User Type to Ext-User because this user account is authenticated by an external server. Click OK.

<h1 id="65-trunks">6.5 Trunks</h1>

The following example shows how to set up a trunk for two connections (ge2 and ge3) to the Internet. The available bandwidth for each connection is 1Mbps (ge2) and 512 Kbps (ge3). As these connections have somewhat different bandwidth, you have decided to use the Weighted Round Robin algorithm and to send traffic to ge2 and ge3 in a 2:1 ratio.

Figure 86 Trunk Example

The ZyWALL has its default settings, and you do not have to change many of them to set up this trunk. You only have to set up the bandwidth on ge2 and ge3 and change the algorithm that WAN_TRUNK uses.

<h1 id="66-nat-11-example">6.6 NAT 1:1 Example</h1>

In this example, there is an SMTP mail server in the LAN zone. It has a private IP address of 192.168.1.21. The public IP address of the server is 1.1.1.1.

In order for the server to be accessible to people from the Internet (WAN zone), you need to create a 1:1 NAT mapping from the public IP address to its private one.

The firewall is enabled, so you also need to create a rule to allow traffic in from the WAN zone.

Figure 91 Address Objects

<h1 id="662-nat-11-virtual-server">6.6.2 NAT 1:1 Virtual Server</h1>

This section sets up a virtual server rule that changes the destination of SMTP traffic coming to IP address 1.1.1.1 at the ZyWALL's ge3 (WAN) interface, to the LAN SMTP server's IP address (192.168.1.21). This is also called Destination NAT (DNAT)

![](images/8e949143ff57ffc9c10fb666f05789fdfe6f8766dcfe294b10e7b2ee2857cd4d.jpg)  
Figure 92 NAT 1:1 Example Virtual Server

The ge3 WAN interface has a different IP address than 1.1.1.1, so in order for the ZyWALL gateway to be able to do ARP resolution correctly, you need to create a ge3 virtual server entry. In the Network > Virtual Server screen, click the + symbol and create a new virtual server entry as shown next. This entry maps TCP port 25 (SMTP) traffic coming to IP address 1.1.1.1 on ge3 to the IP address of the SMTP server (192.168.1.21). In this example the SMTP server also uses port 25, so the Mapped Port is set to 25.

<h1 id="663-nat-11-policy-route">6.6.3 NAT 1:1 Policy Route</h1>

This section sets up a policy route for the traffic coming from the LAN SMTP server to the ZyWALL's ge1 (LAN) interface. It changes the source address from 192.168.1.21 to 1.1.1.1. This is also called Source NAT (SNAT). It sends the traffic out through ge3 (a WAN interface).

![](images/8a39a742d741204d5ded0111679b936aace6a9944a52744e72e7c5e378558e82.jpg)

<h1 id="67-nat-loopback">6.7 NAT Loopback</h1>

The NAT 1:1 example in Section 6.6 on page 147 maps a public IP address to the private IP address of a LAN SMTP mail server to allow users to access the SMTP mail server from the WAN. LAN users can also use an IP address to access the mail server. However, you need to configure NAT loopback for LAN users to use a domain name to access the server.

![](images/88f431d37cabd53e37a37e6bc9e8ce65240f089773bd9efdeb300a5c1892c7ec.jpg)  
Figure 97 LAN Computer Queries the DNS Server

A LAN user computer at IP address 192.168.1.89 queries the domain name (xxx.LAN-SMTP.com in this example) from a public DNS server and gets the SMTP server's 1-1 NAT mapped public IP address of 1.1.1.1.

<h1 id="671-nat-loopback-virtual-server">6.7.1 NAT Loopback Virtual Server</h1>

When a LAN user sends SMTP traffic to IP address 1.1.1.1, the traffic comes into the ZyWALL through the ge1 (LAN) interface, thus it does not match the NAT 1:1 mapping's virtual server rule for SMTP traffic coming to IP 1.1.1.1 from ge3 (the WAN). So you must configure a similar virtual server rule for ge1.

![](images/98177eaa8bc78af0d7fcd5481817d20a47ff7819651fd9a22bc78d71adb5d1d4.jpg)  
Figure 98 NAT Loopback Virtual Server

Click Network > Virtual Server and the + symbol and create the virtual server rule as shown next. This virtual server rule is the same as the NAT 1:1 virtual rule in Section 6.6.2 on page 149, except you use the LAN interface (ge1) instead of the WAN interface (ge3). This rule maps TCP port 25 (SMTP) traffic destined for IP address 1.1.1.1 and coming in on ge1 to the IP address of the SMTP server (192.168.1.21). In this example the SMTP server also uses port 25, so the Mapped Port is set to 25.

Figure 99 Create a Virtual Server

<h1 id="672-nat-loopback-policy-route">6.7.2 NAT Loopback Policy Route</h1>

Without a NAT loopback policy route, the LAN user SMTP traffic goes to the LAN SMTP server has the LAN computer's IP address as the source. The source address is in the same subnet, so the LAN SMTP server replies directly. The return traffic uses the SMTP server's LAN IP address as the source address<sup>1</sup>. This creates a triangle route since the source does not match the original destination address (1.1.1.1). The user's computer shuts down the session.

![](images/f0c98237d74e6c020628c1f453473f59e9a3dbf0dc5ea19493c9f55dbeb29db7.jpg)  
Figure 100 Triangle Route

Configure a policy route to use the IP address of the ZyWALL's gel (LAN) interface, 192.168.1.1 as the source address of the traffic going to the LAN SMTP server from the LAN users. This way the LAN SMTP server replies to the ZyWALL and the ZyWALL applies NAT.

![](images/ac22c530eb78372017c87eea07928124f1135c063d77ab58ddd5a820d6e86da3.jpg)  
Figure 101 NAT Loopback Policy Route

Click Network > Routing > Policy Route > Add and create the policy route as shown next. Be careful of where you create the route as routes are ordered in descending priority. This policy route applies source NAT to traffic sent from the LAN to the SMTP server.

![](images/7b1da5812a341642806b12e32536679dcd14eaa225361c8f00cba3b71032b0e9.jpg)  
Figure 102 Create a Policy Route

Now the LAN SMTP server replies to the ZyWALL's LAN IP address and the ZyWALL changes the source address to 1.1.1.1 before sending it to the LAN user's computer. The source in the return traffic matches the original destination address (1.1.1.1) and the LAN user can use the LAN SMTP server.

<h1 id="68-service-control-and-the-firewall">6.8 Service Control and the Firewall</h1>

Service control lets you configure rules that control HTTP and HTTPS management access (to the web configurator) and separate rules that control HTTP and HTTPS user access (logging into SSL VPN for example). See Chapter 43 on page 575 for more on service control.

The To-ZyWALL firewall rules apply to any kind of HTTP or HTTPS connection to the ZyWALL. They do not distinguish between administrator management access and user access. If you configure service control to allow management or user HTTP or HTTPS access, make sure the firewall is not configured to block that access.

<h1 id="681-allowing-https-administrator-access-only-from-the-lan">6.8.1 Allowing HTTPS Administrator Access Only From the LAN</h1>

This example configures service control to block administrator HTTPS access from all zones except the LAN.

Now administrators can only log into the web configurator from the LAN zone. Non-admin users can still use HTTPS to log into the ZyWALL from any of the ZyWALL's zones (to use SSL VPN for example).

To activate a service on a ZyWALL, you need to access myZyXEL.com via that ZyWALL.

<h1 id="811-subscription-services-available-on-the-zywall">8.1.1 Subscription Services Available on the ZyWALL</h1>

The ZyWALL can use anti-virus, IDP/AppPatrol (Intrusion Detection and Prevention and application patrol), SSL VPN, and content filtering subscription services.

- The ZyWALL's anti-virus packet scanner uses the signature files on the ZyWALL to detect virus files. After the service is activated, the ZyWALL can download the up-to-date signature files from the update server (http://myupdate.zywall.zyxel.com).   
- The IDP and application patrol features use the IDP/AppPatrol signature files on the ZyWALL. IDP detects malicious or suspicious packets and responds immediately. Application patrol conveniently manages the use of various applications on the network. After the service is activated, the ZyWALL can download the up-to-date signature files from the update server (http://myupdate.zywall.zyxel.com).

- SSL VPN tunnels provide secure network access to remote users. You can purchase and enter a license key to have the ZyWALL use more SSL VPN tunnels.   
- The content filter allows or blocks access to web sites. Subscribe to category-based content filtering to block access to categories of web sites based on content. Your ZyWALL accesses an external database that has millions of web sites categorized based on content. You can have the ZyWALL block, block and/or log access to web sites based on these categories.   
- You will get automatic e-mail notification of new signature releases from mySecurityZone after you activate the IDP/AppPatrol service. You can also check for new signatures at http://mysecurity.zyxel.com.

See the respective chapters for more information about these features.

<h1 id="101-interface-overview">10.1 Interface Overview</h1>

In general, an interface has the following characteristics.

- An interface is a logical entity through which (layer-3) packets pass.   
- An interface is bound to a physical port or another interface.   
- Many interfaces can share the same physical port.   
- An interface is bound to at most one zone.   
- Many interface can belong to the same zone.   
- Layer-3 virtualization (IP alias, for example) is a kind of interface.

Some characteristics do not apply to some types of interfaces.

<h1 id="1011-types-of-interfaces">10.1.1 Types of Interfaces</h1>

You can create several types of interfaces in the ZyWALL.

- Port groups create a hardware connection between physical ports at the layer-2 (data link, MAC address) level.   
- Ethernet interfaces are the foundation for defining other interfaces and network policies. RIP and OSPF are also configured in these interfaces.   
- VLAN interfaces receive and send tagged frames. The ZyWALL automatically adds or removes the tags as needed. Each VLAN can only be associated with one Ethernet interface.   
- Bridge interfaces create a software connection between Ethernet or VLAN interfaces at the layer-2 (data link, MAC address) level. Unlike port groups, bridge interfaces can take advantage of some security features in the ZyWALL. You can also assign an IP address and subnet mask to the bridge.   
- PPPoE/PPTP interfaces support Point-to-Point Protocols (PPP). ISP accounts are required for PPPoE/PPTP interfaces.   
- Virtual interfaces provide additional routing information in the ZyWALL. There are three types: virtual Ethernet interfaces, virtual VLAN interfaces, and virtual bridge interfaces.   
- The auxiliary interface, along with an external modem, provides an interface the ZyWALL can use to dial out. This interface can be used as a backup WAN interface, for example. The auxiliary interface controls the AUXport.

- Trunks manage load balancing between interfaces.

Port groups, trunks, and the auxiliary interface have a lot of characteristics that are specific to each type of interface. They are discussed in more detail in Section 10.3.1 on page 194, Chapter 11 on page 219, and Section 10.7.1 on page 215, respectively. The other types of interfaces--Ethernet, VLAN, bridge, PPPoE/PPTP, and virtual--have a lot of similar characteristics. These characteristics are listed in the following table and discussed in more detail below.

Table 43 Ethernet, VLAN, Bridge, PPPoE/PPTP, and Virtual Interfaces Characteristics   

<table><tr><td>CHARACTERISTICS</td><td>ETHERNET</td><td>VLAN</td><td>BRIDGE</td><td>PPPOE/PPTP</td><td>VIRTUAL</td></tr><tr><td>Name*</td><td>gex</td><td>vlanx</td><td>brx</td><td>pppx</td><td>**</td></tr><tr><td>IP Address Assignment</td><td colspan="5"></td></tr><tr><td>static IP address</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td></tr><tr><td>DHCP client</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>No</td></tr><tr><td>routing metric</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td></tr><tr><td>Interface Parameters</td><td colspan="5"></td></tr><tr><td>bandwidth restrictions</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td></tr><tr><td>packet size (MTU)</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>No</td></tr><tr><td>DHCP</td><td colspan="5"></td></tr><tr><td>DHCP server</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>No</td><td>No</td></tr><tr><td>DHCP relay</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>No</td><td>No</td></tr><tr><td>Ping Check</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>No</td></tr></table>

* - The format of interface names is strict. Each name consists of 2-4 letters (interface type), followed by a number ( x , limited by the maximum number of each type of interface). For example, Ethernet interface names are ge1, ge2, ge3, ...; VLAN interfaces are vlan0, vlan1, vlan2, ...; and so on.   
** - The names of virtual interfaces are derived from the interfaces on which they are created. For example, virtual interfaces created on Ethernet interface ge1 are called ge1:1, ge1:2, and so on. Virtual interfaces created on VLAN interface vlan2 are called vlan2:1, vlan2:2, and so on. You cannot specify the number after the colon(:) in the web configurator; it is a sequential number. You can specify the number after the colon if you use the CLI to set up a virtual interface.

<h1 id="1012-ip-address-assignment">10.1.2 IP Address Assignment</h1>

Most interfaces have an IP address and a subnet mask. This information is used to create an entry in the routing table.

![](images/8fcaba09f2ae90da452b0ee0a9e5c812f5313b5083370e6e81d34c487da0011c.jpg)  
Figure 122 Example: Entry in the Routing Table Derived from Interfaces

Table 44 Example: Routing Table Entries for Interfaces   

<table><tr><td>IP ADDRESS(ES)</td><td>DESTINATION</td></tr><tr><td>100.100.1.1/16</td><td>ge1</td></tr><tr><td>200.200.200.1/24</td><td>ge2</td></tr></table>

For example, if the ZyWALL gets a packet with a destination address of 100.100.25.25, it routes the packet to interface ge1. If the ZyWALL gets a packet with a destination address of 200.200.200.200, it routes the packet to interface ge2.

In most interfaces, you can enter the IP address and subnet mask manually. In PPPoE/PPTP interfaces, however, the subnet mask is always 255.255.255.255 because it is a point-to-point interface. For these interfaces, you can only enter the IP address.

In many interfaces, you can also let the IP address and subnet mask be assigned by an external DHCP server on the network. In this case, the interface is a DHCP client. Virtual interfaces, however, cannot be DHCP clients. You have to assign the IP address and subnet mask manually.

In general, the IP address and subnet mask of each interface should not overlap, though it is possible for this to happen with DHCP clients.

In the example above, if the ZyWALL gets a packet with a destination address of 5.5.5.5, it might not find any entries in the routing table. In this case, the packet is dropped. However, if there is a default router to which the ZyWALL should send this packet, you can specify it as a gateway in one of the interfaces. For example, if there is a default router at 200.200.200.100, you can create a gateway at 200.200.200.100 on ge2. In this case, the ZyWALL creates the following entry in the routing table.

Table 45 Example: Routing Table Entry for a Gateway   

<table><tr><td>IP ADDRESS(ES)</td><td>DESTINATION</td></tr><tr><td>0.0.0.0/0</td><td>200.200.200.100</td></tr></table>

The gateway is an optional setting for each interface. If there is more than one gateway, the ZyWALL uses the gateway with the lowest metric, or cost. If two or more gateways have the same metric, the ZyWALL uses the one that was set up first (the first entry in the routing table). In PPPoE/PPTP interfaces, the other computer is the gateway for the interface by default. In this case, you should specify the metric.

If the interface gets its IP address and subnet mask from a DHCP server, the DHCP server also specifies the gateway, if any.

<h1 id="1013-interface-parameters">10.1.3 Interface Parameters</h1>

The ZyWALL restricts the amount of traffic into and out of the ZyWALL through each interface.

- Upstream bandwidth is the amount of traffic from the ZyWALL through the interface to the network.   
- Downstream bandwidth is the amount of traffic from the network through the interface into the ZyWALL.2

If you set the bandwidth restrictions very high, you effectively remove the restrictions.

The ZyWALL also restricts the size of each data packet. The maximum number of bytes in each packet is called the maximum transmission unit (MTU). If a packet is larger than the MTU, the ZyWALL divides it into smaller fragments. Each fragment is sent separately, and the original packet is re-assembled later. The smaller the MTU, the more fragments sent, and the more work required to re-assemble packets correctly. On the other hand, some communication channels, such as Ethernet over ATM, might not be able to handle large data packets.

<h1 id="1014-dhcp-settings">10.1.4 DHCP Settings</h1>

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP, RFC 2131, RFC 2132) provides a way to automatically set up and maintain IP addresses, subnet masks, gateways, and some network information (such as the IP addresses of DNS servers) on computers in the network. This reduces the amount of manual configuration you have to do and usually uses available IP addresses more efficiently.

In DHCP, every network has at least one DHCP server. When a computer (a DHCP client) joins the network, it submits a DHCP request. The DHCP servers get the request; assign an IP address; and provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and available network information to the DHCP client. When the DHCP client leaves the network, the DHCP servers can assign its IP address to another DHCP client.

In the ZyWALL, some interfaces can provide DHCP services to the network. In this case, the interface can be a DHCP relay or a DHCP server.

As a DHCP relay, the interface routes DHCP requests to DHCP servers on different networks. You can specify more than one DHCP server. If you do, the interface routes DHCP requests to all of them. It is possible for an interface to be a DHCP relay and a DHCP client simultaneously.

As a DHCP server, the interface provides the following information to DHCP clients.

- IP address - If the DHCP client's MAC address is in the ZyWALL's static DHCP table, the interface assigns the corresponding IP address. If not, the interface assigns IP addresses from a pool, defined by the starting address of the pool and the pool size.

Table 46 Example:Assigning IP Addresses from a Pool   

<table><tr><td>START IP ADDRESS</td><td>POOL SIZE</td><td>RANGE OF ASSIGNED IP ADDRESS</td></tr><tr><td>50.50.50.33</td><td>5</td><td>50.50.50.33 - 50.50.50.37</td></tr><tr><td>75.75.75.1</td><td>200</td><td>75.75.75.1 - 75.75.75.200</td></tr></table>

2. At the time of writing, the ZyWALL does not support downstream bandwidth management.

Table 46 Example:Assigning IP Addresses from a Pool (continued)   

<table><tr><td>START IP ADDRESS</td><td>POOL SIZE</td><td>RANGE OF ASSIGNED IP ADDRESS</td></tr><tr><td>99.99.1.1</td><td>1023</td><td>99.99.1.1 - 99.99.4.255</td></tr><tr><td>120.120.120.100</td><td>100</td><td>120.120.120.100 - 120.120.120.199</td></tr></table>

The ZyWALL cannot assign the first address (network address) or the last address (broadcast address) in the subnet defined by the interface's IP address and subnet mask. For example, in the first entry, if the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the ZyWALL cannot assign 50.50.50.0 or 50.50.50.255. If the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0, the ZyWALL cannot assign 50.50.0.0 or 50.50.255.255. Otherwise, it can assign every IP address in the range, except the interface's IP address.

If you do not specify the starting address or the pool size, the interface the maximum range of IP addresses allowed by the interface's IP address and subnet mask. For example, if the interface's IP address is 9.9.9.1 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the starting IP address in the pool is 9.9.9.2, and the pool size is 253.

- Subnet mask - The interface provides the same subnet mask you specify for the interface. See Section 10.1.2 on page 180.   
- Gateway - The interface provides the same gateway you specify for the interface. See Section 10.1.2 on page 180.   
- DNS servers - The interface provides IP addresses for up to three DNS servers that provide DNS services for DHCP clients. You can specify each IP address manually (for example, a company's own DNS server), or you can refer to DNS servers that other interfaces received from DHCP servers (for example, a DNS server at an ISP). These other interfaces have to be DHCP clients.

It is not possible for an interface to be the DHCP server and a DHCP client simultaneously.

<h1 id="10141-wins">10.1.4.1 WINS</h1>

WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) is a Windows implementation of NetBIOS Name Server (NBNS) on Windows. It keeps track of NetBIOS computer names. It stores a mapping table of your network's computer names and IP addresses. The table is dynamically updated for IP addresses assigned by DHCP. This helps reduce broadcast traffic since computers can query the server instead of broadcasting a request for a computer name's IP address. In this way WINS is similar to DNS, although WINS does not use a hierarchy (unlike DNS). A network can have more than one WINS server. Samba can also serve as a WINS server.

<h1 id="1015-ping-check-settings">10.1.5 Ping Check Settings</h1>

The interface can regularly ping the gateway you specified (see Section 10.1.2 on page 180) to make sure it is still available. You specify how often the interface pings the gateway, how long to wait for a response before the attempt is a failure, and how many consecutive failures are required before the ZyWALL stops routing to the gateway. The ZyWALL resumes routing to the gateway the first time the gateway acknowledges the ping.

In the ZyWALL, interfaces are usually created on top of other interfaces. Only Ethernet interfaces are created directly on top of the physical ports (or port groups). The relationships between interfaces are explained in the following table.

Table 47 Relationships Between Different Types of Interfaces   

<table><tr><td>INTERFACE</td><td>REQUIRED PORT / INTERFACE</td></tr><tr><td>auxiliary interface</td><td>auxiliary port</td></tr><tr><td>port group</td><td>physical port</td></tr><tr><td>Ethernet interface</td><td>physical port

* - You cannot set up a PPPoE/PPTP interface, virtual Ethernet interface or virtual VLAN interface if the underlying interface is a member of a bridge. You also cannot add an Ethernet interface or VLAN interface to a bridge if the member interface has a virtual interface or PPPoE/PPTP interface on top of it.

<h1 id="102-ethernet-interfaces">10.2 Ethernet Interfaces</h1>

This section introduces Ethernet interfaces and then explains the screens for Ethernet interfaces.

<h1 id="1021-ethernet-interfaces-overview">10.2.1 Ethernet Interfaces Overview</h1>

The ZyWALL has five Ethernet interfaces: ge1, ge2, ge3, ge4, and ge5. Unlike other types of interfaces, you cannot create new Ethernet interfaces nor can you delete any of these five. If you do not assign any physical ports to an Ethernet interface (see Section 10.3.1 on page 194), the Ethernet interface is effectively removed from the ZyWALL, but you can still configure it.

Ethernet interfaces are similar to other types of interfaces in many other ways. They have an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway used to make routing decisions. They restrict the amount of bandwidth and packet size. They can provide DHCP services, and they can verify the gateway is available.

In addition, you use Ethernet interfaces to control which physical ports exchange routing information with other routers and how much information is exchanged through each one. The more routing information is exchanged, the more efficient the routers should be. However, the routers also generate more network traffic, and some routing protocols require a significant amount of configuration and management.

The ZyWALL supports two routing protocols, RIP and OSPF. See Chapter 13 on page 235 for background information about these routing protocols.

With RIP, you can use Ethernet interfaces to do the following things.

- Enable and disable RIP in the underlying physical port or port group.   
- Select which direction(s) routing information is exchanged - The ZyWALL can receive routing information, send routing information, or do both.   
- Select which version of RIP to support in each direction - The ZyWALL supports RIP-1, RIP-2, and both versions.   
- Select the broadcasting method used by RIP-2 packets - The ZyWALL can use subnet broadcasting or multicasting.

With OSPF, you can use Ethernet interfaces to do the following things.

- Enable and disable OSPF in the underlying physical port or port group.   
- Select the area to which the interface belongs.   
- Override the default link cost and authentication method for the selected area.   
- Select in which direction(s) routing information is exchanged - The ZyWALL can receive routing information, send routing information, or do both.   
- Set the priority used to identify the DR or BDR if one does not exist.

<h1 id="103-port-grouping">10.3 Port Grouping</h1>

This section introduces port groups and then explains the screen for port groups.

<h1 id="1031-port-grouping-overview">10.3.1 Port Grouping Overview</h1>

Use port grouping to create port groups and to assign physical ports and port groups to Ethernet interfaces.

Each physical port is assigned to one Ethernet interface. In port grouping, the Ethernet interfaces are called representative interfaces. If you assign more than one physical port to a representative interface, you create a port group. Port groups have the following characteristics:

- There is a layer-2 Ethernet switch between physical ports in the port group. This provides wire-speed throughput but no security.   
- It can increase the bandwidth between the port group and other interfaces.

In the example below, you might combine physical ports 3 and 4 into port group ge3.

<h1 id="104-vlan-interfaces">10.4 VLAN Interfaces</h1>

This section introduces VLAN and VLAN interfaces and then explains the screens for VLAN interfaces.

<h1 id="1041-vlan-overview">10.4.1 VLAN Overview</h1>

A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) divides a physical network into multiple logical networks. The standard is defined in IEEE 802.1q.

![](images/0497aec17cd9f50b5b0cb94947ce3a01ca2ee26355407e96de961ae811dde4d1.jpg)  
Figure 130 Example: Before VLAN

In this example, there are two physical networks and three departments A, B, and C. The physical networks are connected to hubs, and the hubs are connected to the router.

Alternatively, you can divide the physical networks into three VLANs.

![](images/a3881cf525d45018b3a21c2f37762f8bee8cc4e3e0de940afe2e2ff007a76575.jpg)  
Figure 131 Example: After VLAN

Each VLAN is a separate network with separate IP addresses, subnet masks, and gateways. Each VLAN also has a unique identification number (ID). The ID is a 12-bit value that is stored in the MAC header. The VLANs are connected to switches, and the switches are connected to the router. (If one switch has enough connections for the entire network, the network does not need switches A and B.)

- Traffic inside each VLAN is layer-2 communication (data link layer, MAC addresses). It is handled by the switches. As a result, the new switch is required to handle traffic inside VLAN 2. Traffic is only broadcast inside each VLAN, not each physical network.   
- Traffic between VLANs (or between a VLAN and another type of network) is layer-3 communication (network layer, IP addresses). It is handled by the router.

This approach provides a few advantages.

- Increased performance - In VLAN 2, the extra switch should route traffic inside the sales department faster than the router does. In addition, broadcasts are limited to smaller, more logical groups of users.   
- Higher security - If each computer has a separate physical connection to the switch, then broadcast traffic in each VLAN is never sent to computers in another VLAN.

- Better manageability - You can align network policies more appropriately for users. For example, you can create different content filtering rules for each VLAN (each department in the example above), and you can set different bandwidth limits for each VLAN. These rules are also independent of the physical network, so you can change the physical network without changing policies.

In this example, the new switch handles the following types of traffic:

- Inside VLAN 2.   
- Between the router and VLAN 1.   
- Between the router and VLAN 2.   
- Between the router and VLAN 3.

<h1 id="1042-vlan-interfaces-overview">10.4.2 VLAN Interfaces Overview</h1>

In the ZyWALL, each VLAN is called a VLAN interface. As a router, the ZyWALL routes traffic between VLAN interfaces, but it does not route traffic within a VLAN interface. All traffic for each VLAN interface can go through only one Ethernet interface, though each Ethernet interface can have one or more VLAN interfaces.

![](images/08e24fcb7e7f4858432641cbd286f90437eb8e43323738ae5b06d60d29e2e02e.jpg)

Each VLAN interface is created on top of only one Ethernet interface.

Otherwise, VLAN interfaces are similar to other interfaces in many ways. They have an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway used to make routing decisions. They restrict bandwidth and packet size. They can provide DHCP services, and they can verify the gateway is available.

<h1 id="105-bridge-interfaces">10.5 Bridge Interfaces</h1>

This section introduces bridges and bridge interfaces and then explains the screens for bridge interfaces.

<h1 id="1051-bridge-overview">10.5.1 Bridge Overview</h1>

A bridge creates a connection between two or more network segments at the layer-2 (MAC address) level. In the following example, bridge X connects four network segments.

![](images/e2440711dbb444921e47712dad354401f1f9aa07679cd2032a5e5a2ab5849cae.jpg)

When the bridge receives a packet, the bridge records the source MAC address and the port on which it was received in a table. It also looks up the destination MAC address in the table. If the bridge knows on which port the destination MAC address is located, it sends the packet to that port. If the destination MAC address is not in the table, the bridge broadcasts the packet on every port (except the one on which it was received).

In the example above, computer A sends a packet to computer B. Bridge X records the source address 0A:0A:0A:0A:0A:0A and port 2 in the table. It also looks up 0B:0B:0B:0B:0B in the table. There is no entry yet, so the bridge broadcasts the packet on ports 1, 3, and 4.

Table 54 Example: Bridge Table After Computer A Sends a Packet to Computer B   

<table><tr><td>MAC ADDRESS</td><td>PORT</td></tr><tr><td>0A:0A:0A:0A:0A:0A</td><td>2</td></tr></table>

If computer B responds to computer A, bridge X records the source address 0B:0B:0B:0B:0B:0B and port 4 in the table. It also looks up 0A:0A:0A:0A:0A in the table and sends the packet to port 2 accordingly.

Table 55 Example: Bridge Table After Computer B Responds to Computer A   

<table><tr><td>MAC ADDRESS</td><td>PORT</td></tr><tr><td>0A:0A:0A:0A:0A:0A</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>0B:0B:0B:0B:0B:0B</td><td>4</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="1052-bridge-interface-overview">10.5.2 Bridge Interface Overview</h1>

A bridge interface creates a software bridge between the members of the bridge interface. It also becomes the ZyWALL's interface for the resulting network.

A bridge interface may consist of the following members:

Zero or one VLAN interfaces (and any associated virtual VLAN interfaces)   
- Any number of Ethernet interfaces (and any associated virtual Ethernet interfaces)

When you create a bridge interface, the ZyWALL removes the members' entries from the routing table and adds the bridge interface's entries to the routing table. For example, this table shows the routing table before and after you create bridge interface br0 (250.250.250.0/23) between ge1 and vlan1.

Table 56 Example: Routing Table Before and After Bridge Interface br0 Is Created   

<table><tr><td>IP ADDRESS(ES)</td><td>DESTINATION</td></tr><tr><td>210.210.210.0/24</td><td>ge1</td></tr><tr><td>210.211.1.0/24</td><td>ge1:1</td></tr><tr><td>221.221.221.0/24</td><td>vlan0</td></tr><tr><td>222.222.222.0/24</td><td>vlan1</td></tr><tr><td>230.230.230.192/26</td><td>ge3</td></tr><tr><td>241.241.241.241/32</td><td>ge4</td></tr><tr><td>242.242.242.242/32</td><td>ge5</td></tr></table>

<table><tr><td>IP ADDRESS(ES)</td><td>DESTINATION</td></tr><tr><td>221.221.221.0/24</td><td>vlan0</td></tr><tr><td>230.230.230.192/26</td><td>ge3</td></tr><tr><td>241.241.241.241/32</td><td>ge4</td></tr><tr><td>242.242.242.242/32</td><td>ge5</td></tr><tr><td>250.250.250.0/23</td><td>br0</td></tr></table>

In this example, virtual Ethernet interface ge1:1 is also removed from the routing table when ge1 is added to br0. Virtual interfaces are automatically added to or remove from a bridge interface when the underlying interface is added or removed.

<h1 id="106-pppoepptp-interfaces">10.6 PPPoE/PPTP Interfaces</h1>

This section introduces PPPoE, PPTP, and PPPoE/PPTP interfaces and then explains the screens for PPPoE/PPTP interfaces.

<h1 id="1061-pppoepptp-overview">10.6.1 PPPoE/PPTP Overview</h1>

Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE, RFC 2516) and Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP, RFC 2637) are usually used to connect two computers over phone lines or broadband connections.

PPPoE is often used with cable modems and DSL connections. It provides the following advantages:

- The access and authentication method works with existing systems, including RADIUS.   
- You can access one of several network services. This makes it easier for the service provider to offer the service   
- PPPoE does not usually require any special configuration of the modem.

PPTP is used to set up virtual private networks (VPN) in unsecure TCP/IP environments. It sets up two sessions.

1 The first one runs on TCP port 1723. It is used to start and manage the second one.   
2 The second one uses Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE, RFC 2890) to transfer information between the computers.

PPTP is convenient and easy-to-use, but you have to make sure that firewalls support both PPTP sessions.

<h1 id="1062-pppoepptp-interfaces-overview">10.6.2 PPPoE/PPTP Interfaces Overview</h1>

In the ZyWALL, you may use PPPoE/PPTP interfaces to connect to your ISP. This way, you do not have to install or manage PPPoE/PPTP software on each computer in the network.

![](images/3956f6703f3ec4435d85dd9fed45a3308aace851487adfe0ba47933bb9b05792.jpg)  
Figure 138 Example: PPPoE/PPTP Interfaces

PPPoE/PPTP interfaces are similar to other interfaces in some ways. They have an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway used to make routing decisions; they restrict bandwidth and packet size; and they can verify the gateway is available. There are two main differences between PPPoE/PPTP interfaces and other interfaces.

1 You must set up an ISP account before you create a PPPoE/PPTP interface.

Each ISP account specifies the protocol (PPPoE or PPTP), as well as your ISP account information. If you change ISPs later, you only have to create a new ISP account, not a new PPPoE/PPTP interface. You should not have to change any network policies.

2 You do not set up the subnet mask or gateway.

PPPoE/PPTP interfaces are interfaces between the ZyWALL and only one computer. Therefore, the subnet mask is always 255.255.255.255. In addition, the ZyWALL always treats the ISP as a gateway.

At the time of writing, it is possible to set up the IP address of the gateway (ISP) using CLI commands but not in the web configurator.

<h1 id="107-auxiliary-interface">10.7 Auxiliary Interface</h1>

This section introduces the auxiliary interface and then explains the screen for it.

<h1 id="1071-auxiliary-interface-overview">10.7.1 Auxiliary Interface Overview</h1>

Use the auxiliary interface to dial out from the ZyWALL's auxiliary port. For example, you might use this interface as a backup WAN interface.

You have to connect an external modem to the ZyWALL's auxiliary port to use the auxiliary interface.

![](images/a14478b1a7811275fd32c87c2e0f5c5740b0739daa98d8f9e702743458ee831e.jpg)

You have to connect an external modem to the auxiliary port.

The ZyWALL uses the auxiliary interface to dial out in two situations.

1 You click the Connect icon on the ZyWALL Status screen.   
2 The load auxiliary interface must connect to satisfy load-balancing requirements. You have to add the auxiliary interface to a trunk first.

When the ZyWALL hangs up the call, it drops the Data Terminal Ready (DTR) signal and issues the command ATH.

<h1 id="108-virtual-interfaces">10.8 Virtual Interfaces</h1>

Use virtual interfaces to tell the ZyWALL where to route packets. Virtual interfaces can also be used in VPN gateways (see Chapter 20 on page 291) and VRRP groups (see Chapter 33 on page 493).

Virtual interfaces can be created on top of Ethernet interfaces, VLAN interfaces, or bridge interfaces. Virtual VLAN interfaces recognize and use the same VLAN ID. Otherwise, there is no difference between each type of virtual interface. Network policies (for example, firewall rules) that apply to the underlying interface automatically apply to the virtual interface as well.

Like other interfaces, virtual interfaces have an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway used to make routing decisions. However, you have to manually specify the IP address and subnet mask; virtual interfaces cannot be DHCP clients. Like other interfaces, you can restrict bandwidth through virtual interfaces, but you cannot change the MTU. The virtual interface uses the same MTU that the underlying interface uses. Unlike other interfaces, virtual interfaces do not provide DHCP services, and they do not verify that the gateway is available.

This chapter shows you how to configure trunks on your ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.3 on page 115 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="111-trunks-overview">11.1 Trunks Overview</h1>

You can group multiple interfaces together into trunks to have multiple connections share the traffic load to increase overall network throughput and enhance network reliability. If one interface's connection goes down, the ZyWALL sends traffic through another member of the trunk. For example, you can use two interfaces for WAN connections. You can connect one interface to one ISP (or network) and connect the another to a second ISP (or network). The ZyWALL can balance the load between multiple connections (see Section 11.3 on page 219). If one interface's connection goes down, the ZyWALL can automatically send its traffic through another interface.

You can use policy routing to specify through which interface to send specific traffic types. You can use trunks in combination with policy routing. You can also define multiple trunks for the same physical interfaces. This allows you to send specific traffic types through the interface that works best for that type of traffic, and if that interface's connection goes down, the ZyWALL can still send its traffic through another interface.

<h1 id="112-trunk-scenario-examples">11.2 Trunk Scenario Examples</h1>

Suppose one of the ZyWALL's interfaces is connected to an ISP that is also your Voice over IP (VoIP) service provider. You may want to set that interface as active and set another interface (connected to another ISP) to passive. This way VoIP traffic goes through the interface connected to the VoIP service provider whenever the interface's connection is up.

Another example would be if you use multiple ISPs that provide different levels of service to different places. Suppose ISP A has better connections to Europe while ISP B has better connections to Australia. You could use policy routing and trunks to send traffic for your European branch offices primarily through ISP A and traffic for your Australian branch offices primarily through ISP B.

<h1 id="113-load-balancing-introduction">11.3 Load Balancing Introduction</h1>

On the ZyWALL, load balancing is the process of dividing traffic loads between multiple interfaces. This allows you to improve quality of service and maximize bandwidth utilization.

Maybe you have two connections with different bandwidths. For jitter-sensitive traffic (like video for example), you could set up a trunk group that uses spillover or weighted round robin load balancing to make sure that most of the jitter-sensitive traffic goes through the higher-bandwidth interface.

For some traffic connections, you might want to use least load first load balancing in order to even out the distribution of the traffic load.

<h1 id="114-load-balancing-algorithms">11.4 Load Balancing Algorithms</h1>

The following sections describe the load balancing algorithms that the ZyWALL can use to decide which interface the traffic (from the LAN) should use for a session<sup>3</sup>. The available bandwidth you configure on the ZyWALL refers to the actual bandwidth provided by the ISP and the measured bandwidth refers to the bandwidth an interface is currently using.

<h1 id="1141-least-load-first">11.4.1 Least Load First</h1>

The least load first algorithm uses the current (or recent) outbound bandwidth utilization of each trunk member interface as the load balancing index(es) when making decisions about to which interface a new session is to be distributed. The outbound bandwidth utilization is defined as the measured outbound throughput over the available outbound bandwidth.

<h1 id="11411-least-load-first-example-1">11.4.1.1 Least Load First Example 1</h1>

The following example shows two WAN interfaces on the ZyWALL connected to the Internet. The configured available outbound bandwidths for WAN 1 and WAN 2 are 512K and 256K respectively.

![](images/36362ad470bf705cf08abd3125a97cbb756fee56aae8b9aa6adec2eaa3de8634.jpg)  
Figure 143 Least Load First Example 1

The outbound bandwidth utilization is used as the load balancing index. In this example, the measured (current) outbound throughput of WAN 1 is 412K and WAN 2 is 198K . The ZyWALL calculates the load balancing index as shown in the table below.

Since WAN 2 has a smaller load balancing index (meaning that it is less utilized than WAN 1), the ZyWALL will send the subsequent new session traffic through WAN 2.

Table 63 Least Load First: Example 1   

<table><tr><td rowspan="2">INTERFACE</td><td colspan="2">OUTBOUND</td><td rowspan="2">LOAD BALANCING INDEX (M/A)</td></tr><tr><td>AVAILABLE (A)</td><td>MEASURED (M)</td></tr><tr><td>WAN 1</td><td>512 K</td><td>412 K</td><td>0.8</td></tr><tr><td>WAN 2</td><td>256 K</td><td>198 K</td><td>0.77</td></tr></table>

3. In the load balancing section, a session may refer to normal connection-oriented, UDP and SNMP2 traffic.

<h1 id="1142-weighted-round-robin">11.4.2 Weighted Round Robin</h1>

Round Robin scheduling services queues on a rotating basis and is activated only when an interface has more traffic than it can handle. A queue is given an amount of bandwidth irrespective of the incoming traffic on that interface. This queue then moves to the back of the list. The next queue is given an equal amount of bandwidth, and then moves to the end of the list; and so on, depending on the number of queues being used. This works in a looping fashion until a queue is empty.

Similar to the Round Robin (RR) algorithm, the Weighted Round Robin (WRR) algorithm sets the ZyWALL to send traffic through each WAN interface in turn. In addition, the WAN interfaces are assigned weights. An interface with a larger weight gets more of the traffic than an interface with a smaller weight.

This algorithm is best suited for situations when the bandwidths set for the two WAN interfaces are different.

For example, in the figure below, the configured available bandwidth of WAN1 is 1M and WAN2 is 512K. You can set the ZyWALL to distribute the network traffic between the two interfaces by setting the weight of WAN1 and WAN2 to 2 and 1 respectively. The ZyWALL assigns the traffic of two sessions to WAN1 for every session's traffic assigned to WAN2.

![](images/eca4f73725d91b8df4503c88c6e0c752f891081fba953d43eaa31c523913392d.jpg)  
Figure 144 Weighted Round Robin Algorithm Example

<h1 id="1143-spillover">11.4.3 Spillover</h1>

With the spillover load balancing algorithm, the ZyWALL sends network traffic to the first interface in the trunk member list until the interface's maximum allowable load is reached, then the ZyWALL sends the excess network traffic of new sessions to the next interface in the trunk member list. This continues as long as there are more member interfaces and traffic to be sent through them.

In cases where the first interface in the trunk member list uses an unlimited access Internet connection and the secondary WAN uses a per-use timed access plan, the ZyWALL will only use the next interface in the trunk member list when the traffic load exceeds the threshold on the first interface. This allows you to fully utilize the bandwidth of the first interface to reduce Internet usage fees and avoid overloading the interface.

In the following example figure, the upper threshold of the first interface is set to 800K. The ZyWALL sends network traffic of new sessions that exceed this limit to the secondary WAN interface.

<h1 id="policy-and-static-routes">Policy and Static Routes</h1>

This chapter shows you how to configure policies for IP routing and static routes on your ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.10 on page 117 for related information on the policy route screens.

<h1 id="121-policy-route">12.1 Policy Route</h1>

Traditionally, routing is based on the destination address only and the ZyWALL takes the shortest path to forward a packet. IP Policy Routing (IPPR) provides a mechanism to override the default routing behavior and alter the packet forwarding based on the policy defined by the network administrator. Policy-based routing is applied to incoming packets on a per interface basis, prior to the normal routing.

<h1 id="1211-benefits">12.1.1 Benefits</h1>

- Source-Based Routing - Network administrators can use policy-based routing to direct traffic from different users through different connections.   
- Bandwidth Shaping - Organizations can allocate bandwidth to traffic that matches the routing policy and prioritize traffic.   
- Cost Savings – IPPR allows organizations to distribute interactive traffic on high-bandwidth, high-cost paths while using low-cost paths for batch traffic.   
- Load Sharing - Network administrators can use IPPR to distribute traffic among multiple paths.   
- NAT - The ZyWALL performs NAT by default for traffic going to or from the ge1 interface. Routing policy's SNAT allows network administrators to have traffic received on a specified interface use a specified IP address as the source IP address.

<h1 id="122-routing-policy">12.2 Routing Policy</h1>

Individual routing policies are used as part of the overall IPPR process. A policy defines the matching criteria and the action to take when a packet meets the criteria. The action is taken only when all the criteria are met. The criteria can include the user name, source address and incoming interface, destination address, schedule, IP protocol (ICMP, UDP, TCP, etc.) and port.

The actions that can be taken include:

- Routing the packet to a different gateway, outgoing interface, VPN tunnel, or trunk   
- Limiting the amount of bandwidth available and setting a priority for traffic.

IPPR follows the existing packet filtering facility of RAS in style and in implementation.

<h1 id="1221-nat-and-snat">12.2.1 NAT and SNAT</h1>

NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address in a packet in one network to a different IP address in another network. Use SNAT (Source NAT) to change the source IP address in one network to a different IP address in another network.

<h1 id="1222-port-triggering">12.2.2 Port Triggering</h1>

Some services use a dedicated range of ports on the client side and a dedicated range of ports on the server side. With regular port forwarding, you set the port(s) and IP address to forward a service (coming in from the remote server) to a client computer. The problem is that port forwarding only forwards a service to a single IP address. In order to use the same service on a different computer, you have to manually replace the client computer's IP address with another client computer's IP address.

Port triggering allows the client computer to take turns using a service dynamically. Whenever a client computer's packets match the routing policy, it can use the pre-defined port triggering setting to connect to the remote server without manually configuring a port forwarding rule for each client computer.

Port triggering is used especially when the remote server responses using a different port from the port the client computer used to request a service. The ZyWALL records the IP address of a client computer that sends traffic to a remote server to request a service (incoming service). When the ZyWALL receives a new connection (trigger service) from the remote server, the ZyWALL forwards the traffic to the IP address of the client computer that sent the request.

![](images/9d79d0079f000bab84d8b78916dfcff4c127f2e35379dadde11697c6a294ba07.jpg)

You need to create a firewall rule to allow an incoming service before using a port triggering rule.

In the following example, you configure two services for port triggering:

Incoming service: Game (UDP: 1234)

Trigger service: Game-1 (UDP: 5670-5678)

1 Computer A wants to play a multiplayer online game and tries to connect to game server 1 using port 1234. The ZyWALL records the IP address of computer A when the packets match a policy with SNAT configured.   
2 Game server 1 responds using a port number ranging between 5670 - 5678. The ZyWALL allows and forwards the traffic to computer A.   
3 Computer A and game server 1 are connected to each other until the connection is closed or times out. Any other computers (such as B or C) cannot connect to remote server 1 using the same port triggering rule as computer A unless they are using a different next hop (gateway, outgoing interface, VPN tunnel or trunk) from computer A or until the connection is closed or times out.

![](images/f4e59d887451eca0b2592f384fb8830c45ec28cf7c7b4f78284f49c1650f796c.jpg)  
Figure 148 Trigger Port Forwarding Example

<h1 id="1223-maximize-bandwidth-usage">12.2.3 Maximize Bandwidth Usage</h1>

The maximize bandwidth usage option allows the ZyWALL to divide up any available bandwidth on the interface (including unallocated bandwidth and any allocated bandwidth that a policy route is not using) among the policy routes that require more bandwidth.

When you enable maximize bandwidth usage, the ZyWALL first makes sure that each policy route gets up to its bandwidth allotment. Next, the ZyWALL divides up an interface's available bandwidth (bandwidth that is unbudgeted or unused by the policy routes) depending on how many policy routes require more bandwidth and on their priority levels. When only one policy route requires more bandwidth, the ZyWALL gives the extra bandwidth to that policy route.

When multiple policy routes require more bandwidth, the ZyWALL gives the highest priority policy routes the available bandwidth first (as much as they require, if there is enough available bandwidth), and then to lower priority policy routes if there is still bandwidth available. The ZyWALL distributes the available bandwidth equally among policy routes with the same priority level.

<h1 id="1224-reserving-bandwidth-for-non-bandwidth-class-traffic">12.2.4 Reserving Bandwidth for Non-Bandwidth Class Traffic</h1>

Do the following three steps to configure the ZyWALL to allow bandwidth for traffic that does not match a policy route.

1 Leave some of the interface's bandwidth unbudgeted.   
2 Do not enable the Maximize Bandwidth Usage option in the policy routes.

<h1 id="125-ip-static-routes">12.5 IP Static Routes</h1>

The ZyWALL has no knowledge of the networks beyond the network that is directly connected to the ZyWALL. For instance, the ZyWALL knows about network N2 in the following figure through gateway R1. However, the ZyWALL is unable to route a packet to network N3 because it doesn't know that there is a route through the same gateway R1 (via gateway R2). Static routes are for you to tell the ZyWALL about the networks beyond the network connected to the ZyWALL directly.

<h1 id="routing-protocols">Routing Protocols</h1>

This chapter describes how to set up RIP and OSPF routing protocol settings for the ZyWALL. First, it provides an overview of RIP and OSPF, and, then, it introduces the RIP and OSPF screens used to configure routing protocols. See Section 5.5 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="131-routing-protocols-overview">13.1 Routing Protocols Overview</h1>

Routing protocols give the ZyWALL routing information about the network from other routers. The ZyWALL then stores this routing information in the routing table, which it uses when it makes routing decisions. In turn, the ZyWALL can also provide routing information via routing protocols to other routers.

The ZyWALL supports two standards, RIP and OSPF, for routing protocols. RIP and OSPF are compared in Table 70 on page 235, and they are discussed further in the next two sections.

Table 70 OSPF vs. RIP   

<table><tr><td></td><td>OSPF</td><td>RIP</td></tr><tr><td>Network Size</td><td>Large</td><td>Small (with up to 15 routers)</td></tr><tr><td>Metric</td><td>Bandwidth, hop count, throughput, round trip time and reliability.</td><td>Hop count</td></tr><tr><td>Convergence</td><td>Fast</td><td>Slow</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="1311-rip-overview">13.1.1 RIP Overview</h1>

RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC 1058 and RFC 1389) allows a device to exchange routing information with other routers. RIP is a vector-space routing protocol, and, like most such protocols, it uses hop count to decide which route is the shortest. Unfortunately, it also broadcasts its routes asynchronously to the network and converges slowly. Therefore, RIP is more suitable for small networks (up to 15 routers).

In the ZyWALL, you can configure two sets of RIP settings before you can use it in an interface.

First, the Authentication field specifies how to verify that the routing information that is received is the same routing information that is sent. This is discussed in more detail in Section 13.1.2 on page 236.

Second, the ZyWALL can also redistribute routing information from non-RIP networks, specifically OSPF networks and static routes, to the RIP network. Costs might be calculated differently, however, so you use the Metric field to specify the cost in RIP terms.

RIP uses UDP port 520.

<h1 id="1312-authentication-types">13.1.2 Authentication Types</h1>

Authentication is used to guarantee the integrity, but not the confidentiality, of routing updates. The transmitting router uses its key to encrypt the original message into a smaller message, and the smaller message is transmitted with the original message. The receiving router uses its key to encrypt the received message and then verifies that it matches the smaller message sent with it. If the received message is verified, then the receiving router accepts the updated routing information. The transmitting and receiving routers must have the same key.

The ZyWALL supports three authentication methods for RIP and OSPF routing protocols:

- None - no authentication is used.   
- Text – authentication using a plain text password, and the (unencrypted) password is sent over the network. This method is usually used temporarily to prevent network problems.   
- MD5 - authentication using an MD5 password and authentication ID.

MD5 is an authentication method that produces a 128-bit checksum, called a message-digest, for each packet. It also includes an authentication ID, which can be set to any value between 1 and 255. The ZyWALL only accepts packets if these conditions are satisfied.

- The packet's authentication ID is the same as the authentication ID of the interface that received it.   
- The packet's message-digest is the same as the one the ZyWALL calculates using the MD5 password.

For RIP, authentication is not available in RIP version 1. In RIP version 2, you can only select one authentication type for all interfaces. For OSPF, the ZyWALL supports a default authentication type by area. If you want to use this default in an interface or virtual link, you set the associated Authentication Type field to Same as Area. As a result, you only have to update the authentication information for the area to update the authentication type used by these interfaces and virtual links. Alternatively, you can override the default in any interface or virtual link by selecting a specific authentication method. Please see the respective interface sections for more information.

<h1 id="132-rip-screen">13.2 RIP Screen</h1>

The RIP screen is used to specify the authentication method, and it is used to maintain the policies for redistribution.

<h1 id="133-ospf-overview">13.3 OSPF Overview</h1>

OSPF (Open Shortest Path First, RFC 2328) is a link-state protocol designed to distribute routing information within a group of networks, called an Autonomous System (AS). OSPF offers some advantages over vector-space routing protocols like RIP.

- OSPF supports variable-length subnet masks, which can be set up to use available IP addresses more efficiently.

- OSPF filters and summarizes routing information, which reduces the size of routing tables throughout the network.   
- OSPF responds to changes in the network, such as the loss of a router, more quickly.   
- OSPF considers several factors, including bandwidth, hop count, throughput, round trip time, and reliability, when it calculates the shortest path.   
- OSPF converges more quickly than RIP.

Naturally, OSPF is also more complicated than RIP, so OSPF is usually more suitable for large networks.

OSPF uses IP protocol 89.

<h1 id="1331-ospf-areas">13.3.1 OSPF Areas</h1>

An OSPF Autonomous System (AS) is divided into one or more areas. Each area represents a group of adjacent networks and is identified by a 32-bit ID. In OSPF, this number may be expressed as an integer or as an IP address.

There are several types of areas.

- The backbone is the transit area that routes packets between other areas. All other areas are connected to the backbone.   
- A normal area is a group of adjacent networks. A normal area has routing information about the OSPF AS, any networks outside the OSPF AS to which it is directly connected, and any networks outside the OSPF AS that provide routing information to any area in the OSPF AS.   
- A stub area has routing information about the OSPF AS. It does not have any routing information about any networks outside the OSPF AS, including networks to which it is directly connected. It relies on a default route to send information outside the OSPF AS.   
- A Not So Stubby Area (NSSA, RFC 1587) has routing information about the OSPF AS and networks outside the OSPF AS to which the NSSA is directly connected. It does not have any routing information about other networks outside the OSPF AS.

Each type of area is illustrated in the following figure.

![](images/e343598087e41ecefaea38bef06bd4b73942d23c0f83791770a77f5661755621.jpg)  
Figure 155 OSPF: Types of Areas

This OSPF AS consists of four areas, areas 0-3. Area 0 is always the backbone. In this example, areas 1, 2, and 3 are all connected to it. Area 1 is a normal area. It has routing information about the OSPF AS and networks X and Y. Area 2 is a stub area. It has routing information about the OSPF AS, but it depends on a default route to send information to networks X and Y. Area 3 is a NSSA. It has routing information about the OSPF AS and network Y but not about network X.

<h1 id="1332-ospf-routers">13.3.2 OSPF Routers</h1>

Every router in the same area has the same routing information. They do this by exchanging Hello messages to confirm which neighbor (layer-3) devices exist, and then they exchange database descriptions (DDs) to create a synchronized link-state database. The link-state database contains records of router IDs, their associated links and path costs. The link-state database is then constantly updated through Link State Advertisements (LSA). Each router uses the link state database and the Dijkstra algorithm to compute the least cost paths to network destinations.

Like areas, each router has a unique 32-bit ID in the OSPF AS, and there are several types of routers. Each type is really just a different role, and it is possible for one router to play multiple roles at one time.

- An internal router (IR) only exchanges routing information with other routers in the same area.   
- An Area Border Router (ABR) connects two or more areas. It is a member of all the areas to which it is connected, and it filters, summarizes, and exchanges routing information between them.   
- An Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) exchanges routing information with routers in networks outside the OSPF AS. This is called redistribution in OSPF.

Table 72 OSPF: Redistribution from Other Sources to Each Type of Area   

<table><tr><td>SOURCE \ TYPE OF AREA</td><td>NORMAL</td><td>NSSA</td><td>STUB</td></tr><tr><td>Static routes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>No</td></tr><tr><td>RIP</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td><td>Yes</td></tr></table>

- A backbone router (BR) has at least one interface with area 0. By default, every router in area 0 is a backbone router, and so is every ABR.

Each type of router is illustrated in the following example.

![](images/7d685efeb809c6354e3f7066f4e648ae0d56744c7468a1d5f44b3ca3a00c71ec.jpg)  
Figure 156 OSPF: Types of Routers

In order to reduce the amount of traffic between routers, a group of routers that are directly connected to each other selects a designated router (DR) and a backup designated router (BDR). All of the routers only exchange information with the DR and the BDR, instead of exchanging information with all of the other routers in the group. The DR and BDR are selected by priority; if two routers have the same priority, the highest router ID is used.

The DR and BDR are selected in each group of routers that are directly connected to each other. If a router is directly connected to several groups, it might be a DR in one group, a BDR in another group, and neither in a third group all at the same time.

<h1 id="1333-virtual-links">13.3.3 Virtual Links</h1>

In some OSPF AS, it is not possible for an area to be directly connected to the backbone. In this case, you can create a virtual link through an intermediate area to logically connect the area to the backbone. This is illustrated in the following example.

![](images/bce1b50eb0e5250cb33896eca6cadf2e89da9ea39f84ae81e709b30c68543025.jpg)  
Figure 157 OSPF: Virtual Link

In this example, area 100 does not have a direct connection to the backbone. As a result, you should set up a virtual link on both ABR in area 10. The virtual link becomes the connection between area 100 and the backbone.

You cannot create a virtual link to a router in a different area.

<h1 id="1334-ospf-configuration">13.3.4 OSPF Configuration</h1>

Follow these steps when you configure OSPF on the ZyWALL.

1 Enable OSPF.

2 Set up the OSPF areas.   
3 Configure the appropriate interfaces. See Section 10.2.1 on page 184.   
4 Set up virtual links, as needed.

<h1 id="134-ospf-screens">13.4 OSPF Screens</h1>

Set up zones to configure network security and network policies in the ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.7 on page 116 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="141-zones-overview">14.1 Zones Overview</h1>

A zone is a group of interfaces and VPN tunnels. The ZyWALL uses zones, not interfaces, in many security and policy settings, such as firewall rules and remote management.

Zones cannot overlap. Each Ethernet interface, VLAN interface, bridge interface, PPPoE/ PPTP interface, auxiliary interface, and VPN tunnel can be assigned to at most one zone. Virtual interfaces are automatically assigned to the same zone as the interface on which they run.

![](images/4baea4d926875d15b0edc9d17f4c87f9fb4eb7860fbb46a686f87dc0b8668f1f.jpg)  
Figure 160 Example: Zones

<h1 id="1411-effect-of-zones-on-different-types-of-traffic">14.1.1 Effect of Zones on Different Types of Traffic</h1>

Zones effectively divide traffic into three types--intra-zone traffic, inter-zone traffic, and extra-zone traffic--which are affected differently by zone-based security and policy settings.

Intra-zone traffic is traffic between interfaces or VPN tunnels in the same zone. For example, in Figure 160 on page 245, traffic between VLAN 2 and the Ethernet is intra-zone traffic. In each zone, you can either allow or prohibit all intra-zone traffic. For example, in Figure 160 on page 245, you might allow intra-zone traffic in the LAN2 zone but prohibit it in the WAN zone. You can also set up firewall rules to control intra-zone traffic (for example, LAN2-toLAN2), but many other types of zone-based security and policy settings do not affect intrazone traffic.

Inter-zone traffic is traffic between interfaces or VPN tunnels in different zones. For example, in Figure 160 on page 245, traffic between VLAN 1 and the Internet is inter-zone traffic. This is the normal case when zone-based security and policy settings apply.

Extra-zone traffic is traffic to or from any interface or VPN tunnel that is not assigned to a zone. For example, in Figure 160 on page 245, traffic to or from computer C is extra-zone traffic. Some zone-based security and policy settings may apply to extra-zone traffic, especially if you can set the zone attribute in them to Any or All. See the specific feature for more information.

This chapter describes how to configure dynamic DNS (DDNS) services for the ZyWALL. First, it provides an overview, and then it introduces the screens. See Section 5.4.9 on page 117 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="151-ddns-overview">15.1 DDNS Overview</h1>

DNS maps a domain name to a corresponding IP address and vice versa. Similarly, dynamic DNS maps a domain name to a dynamic IP address. As a result, anyone can use the domain name to contact you (in NetMeeting, CU-SeeMe, etc.) or to access your FTP server or Web site, regardless of the current IP address.

![](images/f0a216f904bfa8f28715e6f8fc082a53ddc6cc4306414cd8c9b93b93a3f4d71d.jpg)

If you have a private WAN IP address, then you cannot use Dynamic DNS.

Before you can use Dynamic DNS services with the ZyWALL, you first need to set up a dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org. (This is the only DNS service provider the ZyWALL supports at the time of writing.) DynDNS offers several DNS services. Please see www.dyndns.org for more information about each of them. When registration is complete, DynDNS gives you a password or key.

![](images/911cf1e87728b8a68be575a01c09b6142d46489db6c66593b12bbafdb9c1b6b5.jpg)

You must go to DynDNS's Web site to set up a user account and a domain name before you can use the Dynamic DNS service with the ZyWALL.

After this, you configure the ZyWALL. Once the ZyWALL is configured, it automatically sends updated IP addresses to DynDNS, which helps redirect traffic accordingly.

<h1 id="1511-dyndns-wildcard">15.1.1 DYNDNS Wildcard</h1>

Enable this feature to have *.yourhost.dyndns.org (for example, www.yourhost.dyndns.org) routed to the same IP address as yourhost.dyndns.org.

<h1 id="1512-high-availability-ha">15.1.2 High Availability (HA)</h1>

The DDNS server maps a domain name to the IP address of one of the ZyWALL's WAN ports. If that WAN port loses its connection, high availability allows the ZyWALL to substitute the HA port's IP address in the domain name mapping.

<h1 id="1513-mail-exchanger">15.1.3 Mail Exchanger</h1>

DynDNS can route e-mail for your domain name to a specified mail server. The server is called a mail exchanger. For example, if there is e-mail for john-doe@yourhost.dyndns.org, DynDNS routes the e-mail to the IP address you specify for the mail exchanger.

DynDNS can also provide an additional service, in which it holds onto your e-mail if your mail server is not available. Once your mail server is available again, the DynDNS server delivers the mail to you. This service is called backup.

Please see www.dyndns.org for more information about mail exchangers and backup.

<h1 id="152-ddns-screens">15.2 DDNS Screens</h1>

Each domain name requires information about the DynDNS services and DynDNS account, as well as how the ZyWALL updates the IP address.

The DDNS Type indicates which DynDNS service you are using. The ZyWALL supports three services: dynamic DNS, static DNS, and custom DNS. Please see www.dyndns.org for more information about each of these services.

The ZyWALL needs to know theUsername, Password, and Domain Name for your DynDNS account. You can also use the wildcard check box to indicate whether or not the wildcard feature should be supported.

You must also specify an IP Address Update Policy. This policy controls how the ZyWALL determines the IP address that is mapped to your domain name in the DDNS server. There are three policies: Interface, Auto, and Custom.

- Interface - You specify which WAN Interface (WAN port's IP address) to use for the domain name, and you can also specify an alternative HA Interface, in case the WAN interface is not available.   
- **Auto - The DDNS server checks the source IP address of the packets from the ZyWALL for the IP address to use for the domain name. You might consider this if there are one or more NAT routers between the ZyWALL and the DDNS server.**

![](images/a1d7cdd21f4aa181516089104f0e84262dc28caa9135c8de3bf71f07eafb4255.jpg)

The ZyWALL may not determine the proper IP address if there is an HTTP proxy server between the ZyWALL and the DDNS server.

- Custom - If you have a static IP address, you can specify the Custom IP address to use for the domain name. The ZyWALL still sends the static IP address to the DDNS server.

<h1 id="153-ddns-summary">15.3 DDNS Summary</h1>

The DDNS screen provides a summary of all DDNS domain names and their configuration. In addition, this screen allows you to add new domain names, edit the configuration for existing domain names, and delete domain names.

<h1 id="virtual-servers">Virtual Servers</h1>

This chapter describes how to set up, manage, and remove virtual servers. First, it provides an overview of virtual servers, and, then, it introduces the virtual server screens and commands. See Section 5.4.18 on page 121 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="161-virtual-server-overview">16.1 Virtual Server Overview</h1>

Virtual server is also known as port forwarding or port translation.

![](images/dd7b73b630300085251601e91d059d6dead54a0cbebf05182e540cb14c31b442.jpg)

The virtual server changes the destination address of packets. This is also known as Destination NAT (DNAT).

Virtual servers are computers on a private network behind the ZyWALL that you want to make available outside the private network. If the ZyWALL has only one public IP address, you can make the computers in the private network available by using ports to forward packets to the appropriate private IP address.

In the ZyWALL, you set up a virtual server for each forwarding rule. The first part of the virtual server defines the conditions required to forward the packet.

- Original IP - the original destination address; it can be an Ethernet, VLAN, bridge, or PPPoE/PPTP interface; a specific IP address; or a HOST address object. (See Chapter 35 on page 515.)   
- Protocol Type - the protocol [TCP, UDP, or both (Any)] used by the service requesting the connection.   
- Original Port(s) - the original destination port or range of destination ports. You might use a range of destination ports for unknown services or when one server supports more than one service.

The second part of the virtual server controls where the packet is forwarded if the conditions are satisfied.

- Mapped IP - the translated destination address.   
- Mapped Port(s) - the translated destination port or range of destination ports.

The original port range and the mapped port range must be the same size.

The ZyWALL checks virtual servers before it applies to-ZyWALL firewall rules, so to-ZyWALLfirewall rules do not apply to traffic that is forwarded by virtual servers. The ZyWALL still checks regular (through-ZyWALL) firewall rules according to the source IP address and mapped IP address.

Some common port numbers are listed in Appendix C on page 703.

<h1 id="162-virtual-server-example">16.2 Virtual Server Example</h1>

Let's say you want to assign ports 21-25 to one FTP, Telnet and SMTP server (A in the example), port 80 to another (B in the example) and assign a default server IP address of 192.168.1.35 to a third (C in the example). You assign the LAN IP addresses and the ISP assigns the WAN IP address. The NAT network appears as a single host on the Internet.

<h1 id="http-redirect">HTTP Redirect</h1>

This chapter shows you how to configure HTTP redirection on your ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.19 on page 121 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="171-http-redirect-overview">17.1 HTTP Redirect Overview</h1>

HTTP redirect forwards the client's HTTP request (except HTTP traffic destined for the ZyWALL) to a web proxy server.

<h1 id="1711-web-proxy-server">17.1.1 Web Proxy Server</h1>

A proxy server helps client devices make indirect requests to access the Internet or outside network resources/services. A proxy server can act as a firewall or an ALG (application layer gateway) between the private network and the Internet or other networks. It also keeps hackers from knowing internal IP addresses.

A client connects to a web proxy server each time he/she wants to access the Internet. The web proxy provides caching service to allow quick access and reduce network usage. The proxy checks its local cache for the requested web resource first. If it is not found, the proxy gets it from the specified server and forwards the response to the client.

<h1 id="172-http-redirect-firewall-and-policy-route">17.2 HTTP Redirect, Firewall and Policy Route</h1>

With HTTP redirect, the relevant packet flow for HTTP traffic is:

1 Firewall   
2 Application Patrol   
3 HTTP Redirect   
4 Policy Route

Even if you set a policy route to the same incoming interface and service as a HTTP redirect rule, the ZyWALL checks the HTTP redirect rules first and forwards HTTP traffic to a proxy server if matched. You need to make sure there is no firewall rule(s) blocking the HTTP requests from the client to the proxy server.

You also need to manually configure a policy route to forward the HTTP traffic from the proxy server to the Internet.

![](images/e919763966e435f03a5ecabf8d6008c09cf79e3acc00e5a7a9f8b323a8da4f41.jpg)  
Figure 168 HTTP Redirect Example

In the example, proxy server A is connected to ge4 in the DMZ zone. When a client connected to ge1 wants to open a web page, its HTTP request is redirected to proxy server A first. If proxy server A cannot find the web page in its cache, a policy route allows it to access the Internet to get them from a server. Proxy server A then forwards the response to the client.

To make this example work, make sure you have the following settings.

For HTTP traffic between ge1 and ge4:

- a from LAN to WAN through-ZyWALL rule (default) to allow HTTP request from ge1 to ge4. Responses to this request are allowed automatically.   
- a application patrol rule to allow HTTP traffic between ge1 and ge4.   
- a HTTP redirect rule to forward HTTP traffic from ge1 to proxy server A.

For HTTP traffic between ge4 and ge2:

- a from DMZ to WAN through-ZyWALL rule (default) to allow HTTP request from ge4 to ge2. Responses to this request are allowed automatically.   
- a application patrol rule to allow HTTP traffic between ge4 and ge2.   
- a policy route to forward HTTP traffic from proxy server A to the Internet.

<h1 id="173-configuring-http-redirect">17.3 Configuring HTTP Redirect</h1>

To configure redirection of a HTTP request to a proxy server, click Network > HTTP Redirect. This screen displays the summary of the HTTP redirect rules.

This chapter covers how to use the ZyWALL's ALG feature to allow certain applications to pass through the ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.20 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="181-alg-introduction">18.1 ALG Introduction</h1>

The ZyWALL can function as an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) to allow certain NAT unfriendly applications (such as SIP) to operate properly through the ZyWALL's NAT.

Some applications cannot operate through NAT (are NAT un-friendly) because they embed IP addresses and port numbers in their packets' data payload. The ZyWALL examines and uses IP address and port number information embedded in the VoIP traffic's data stream. When a device behind the ZyWALL uses an application for which the ZyWALL has VoIP pass through enabled, the ZyWALL translates the device's private IP address inside the data stream to a public IP address. It also records session port numbers and allows the related sessions to go through the firewall so the application's traffic can come in from the WAN to the LAN.

The ZyWALL only needs to use the ALG feature for traffic that goes through the ZyWALL's NAT. The firewall allows related sessions. The firewall allows or blocks peer to peer traffic based on the firewall rules.

You do not need to use STUN (Simple Traversal of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) through Network Address Translators) for VoIP devices behind the ZyWALL when you enable the SIP ALG.

<h1 id="1811-application-layer-gateway-alg-and-nat">18.1.1 Application Layer Gateway (ALG) and NAT</h1>

The ZyWALL dynamically creates an implicit NAT session for the application's traffic from the WAN to the LAN. The ALG on the ZyWALL supports all of the ZyWALL's NAT mapping types.

<h1 id="1812-alg-and-trunks">18.1.2 ALG and Trunks</h1>

If you send your ALG-managed traffic through an interface trunk and all of the interfaces are set to active, you can configure routing policies to specify which interface the ALG-managed traffic uses.

You could also have a trunk with one interface set to active and a second interface set to passive. The ZyWALL does not automatically change ALG-managed connections to the second (passive) interface when the active interface's connection goes down. When the active interface's connection fails, the client needs to re-initialize the connection through the second interface (that was set to passive) in order to have the connection go through the second interface. VoIP clients usually re-register automatically at set intervals or the users can manually force them to re-register.

<h1 id="1813-ftp">18.1.3 FTP</h1>

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is an Internet file transfer service that operates on the Internet and over TCP/IP networks. A system running the FTP server accepts commands from a system running an FTP client. The service allows users to send commands to the server for uploading and downloading files. The FTP ALG allows TCP packets with a port 21 destination to pass through. If the FTP server is located on the LAN, you must also configure NAT port forwarding and firewall rules if you want to allow access to the server from the WAN.

<h1 id="1814-h323">18.1.4 H.323</h1>

H.323 is a standard teleconferencing protocol suite that provides audio, data and video conferencing. It allows for real-time point-to-point and multipoint communication between client computers over a packet-based network that does not provide a guaranteed quality of service. NetMeeting uses H.323.

<h1 id="1815-rtp">18.1.5 RTP</h1>

When you make a VoIP call using H.323 or SIP, the RTP (Real time Transport Protocol) is used to handle voice data transfer. See RFC 1889 for details on RTP.

<h1 id="18151-h323-alg-details">18.1.5.1 H.323 ALG Details</h1>

- The H.323 ALG supports peer-to-peer H.323 calls.   
- The H.323 ALG handles H.323 calls that go through NAT or that the ZyWALL routes. You can also make other H.323 calls that do not go through NAT or routing. Examples would be calls between LAN IP addresses that are on the same subnet.   
- The H.323 ALG allows calls to go out through NAT. For example, you could make a call from a private IP address on the LAN to a peer device on the WAN.   
- The H.323 ALG operates on TCP packets with a port 1720 destination.   
- The ZyWALL allows H.323 audio connections.   
- The ZyWALL can also apply bandwidth management to traffic that goes through the H.323 ALG.

The following example shows H.323 signaling (1) and audio (2) sessions between H.323 devices A and B.

![](images/b092248f75a22ccaa46ef0ee72452a9d0062292068b987868d2e2cd8225d3d7a.jpg)  
Figure 171 H.323 ALG Example

<h1 id="1816-sip">18.1.6 SIP</h1>

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol that handles the setting up, altering and tearing down of voice and multimedia sessions over the Internet. SIP is used in VoIP (Voice over IP), the sending of voice signals over the Internet Protocol.

SIP signaling is separate from the media for which it handles sessions. The media that is exchanged during the session can use a different path from that of the signaling. SIP handles telephone calls and can interface with traditional circuit-switched telephone networks.

<h1 id="18161-sip-alg-details">18.1.6.1 SIP ALG Details</h1>

- SIP clients can be connected to the LAN or DMZ. A SIP server must be on the WAN.   
- Using the SIP ALG allows you to use bandwidth management on SIP traffic.   
- The SIP ALG handles SIP calls that go through NAT or that the ZyWALL routes. You can also make other SIP calls that do not go through NAT or routing. Examples would be calls between LAN IP addresses that are on the same subnet.   
- The SIP ALG supports peer-to-peer SIP calls. The firewall (by default) allows peer to peer calls from the LAN zone to go to the WAN zone and blocks peer to peer calls from the WAN zone to the LAN zone.   
- The SIP ALG allows UDP packets with a port 5060 destination to pass through.   
- The ZyWALL allows SIP audio connections.

The following example shows SIP signaling (1) and audio (2) sessions between SIP clients A and B and the SIP server.

![](images/0153cc58754a9f6fa6c6e4d9c512434b58112ab8f6809153ec4184003bbf4757.jpg)  
Figure 172 SIP ALG Example

<h1 id="18162-sip-signaling-session-timeout">18.1.6.2 SIP Signaling Session Timeout</h1>

Most SIP clients have an "expire" mechanism indicating the lifetime of signaling sessions. The SIP user agent sends registration packets to the SIP server periodically and keeps the session alive in the ZyWALL.

If the SIP client does not have this mechanism and makes no calls during the ZyWALL SIP timeout, the ZyWALL SIP ALG deletes the signaling session after the timeout period.

<h1 id="182-peer-to-peer-calls-and-the-zywall">18.2 Peer-to-Peer Calls and the ZyWALL</h1>

The ZyWALL ALG can allow peer-to-peer VoIP calls for both H.323 and SIP. You must configure the firewall and virtual server (port forwarding) to allow incoming (peer-to-peer) calls from the WAN to a private IP address on the LAN (or DMZ).

<h1 id="1821-voip-calls-from-the-wan-with-multiple-outgoing-calls">18.2.1 VoIP Calls from the WAN with Multiple Outgoing Calls</h1>

When you configure the firewall and virtual server (port forwarding) to allow calls from the WAN to a specific IP address on the LAN, you can also use policy routing to have H.323 (or SIP) calls from other LAN or DMZ IP addresses go out through a different WAN IP address. The policy routing lets the ZyWALL correctly forward the return traffic for the calls initiated from the LAN IP addresses.

For example, you configure the firewall and virtual server to allow LAN IP address A to receive calls from the Internet through WAN IP address 1. You also use a policy route to have LAN IP address A make calls out through WAN IP address 1. Configure another policy route to have H.323 (or SIP) calls from LAN IP addresses B and C go out through WAN IP address 2. Even though only LAN IP address A can receive incoming calls from the Internet, LAN IP addresses B and C can still make calls out to the Internet.

![](images/d06088e4005e769ba36b53ff733bbf925a38a773c5b46fa382a6bc2c355994d2.jpg)  
Figure 173 VoIP Calls from the WAN with Multiple Outgoing Calls

<h1 id="1822-voip-with-multiple-wan-ip-addresses">18.2.2 VoIP with Multiple WAN IP Addresses</h1>

With multiple WAN IP addresses on the ZyWALL, you can configure different firewall and virtual server (port forwarding) rules to allow incoming calls from each WAN IP address to go to a specific IP address on the LAN (or DMZ). Use policy routing to have the H.323 (or SIP) calls from each of those LAN or DMZ IP addresses go out through the same WAN IP address that calls come in on. The policy routing lets the ZyWALL correctly forward the return traffic for the calls initiated from the LAN IP addresses.

For example, you configure firewall and virtual server rules to allow LAN IP address A to receive calls through public WAN IP address 1. You configure different firewall and port forwarding rules to allow LAN IP address B to receive calls through public WAN IP address 2. You configure corresponding policy routes to have calls from LAN IP address A go out through WAN IP address 1 and calls from LAN IP address B go out through WAN IP address 2.

This chapter introduces the ZyWALL's firewall and shows you how to configure your ZyWALL's firewall. See Section 5.4.12 on page 118 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="191-firewall-overview">19.1 Firewall Overview</h1>

The ZyWALL's firewall is a stateful inspection firewall. The ZyWALL restricts access by screening data packets against defined access rules. It can also inspect sessions. For example, traffic from one zone is not allowed unless it is initiated by a computer in another zone first.

A zone is a group of interfaces or VPN tunnels. Group the ZyWALL's interfaces into different zones based on your needs. You can configure firewall rules for data passing between zones or even between interfaces and/or VPN tunnels in a zone.

The following figure shows the ZyWALL's default firewall rules in action as well as demonstrates how stateful inspection works. User 1 can initiate a Telnet session from within the LAN zone and responses to this request are allowed. However, other Telnet traffic initiated from the WAN or DMZ zone and destined for the LAN zone is blocked. Communications between the WAN and the DMZ zones are allowed. The firewall allows VPN traffic between any of the networks.

![](images/03eda8bd5512ac39bc0d0cb66eaba84b9919fef368bd220fdb0e0618d7a00ea6.jpg)  
Figure 182 Default Firewall Action

Your customized rules take precedence and override the ZyWALL's default settings. The ZyWALL checks the schedule, user name (user's login name on the ZyWALL), source IP address, destination IP address and IP protocol type of network traffic against the firewall rules (in the order you list them). When the traffic matches a rule, the ZyWALL takes the action specified in the rule.

For example, if you want to allow a specific user from any computer to access one zone by logging in to the ZyWALL, you can set up a rule based on the user name only. If you also apply a schedule to the firewall rule, the user can only access the network at the scheduled time. A user-aware firewall rule is activated whenever the user logs in to the ZyWALL and will be disabled after the user logs out of the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="192-firewall-rules">19.2 Firewall Rules</h1>

Firewall rules are grouped based on the direction of travel of packets to which they apply.

![](images/3d0e23267ce24bf923f8909ad95d82eb2ac4545450102ba028b1cf59c62ccbde.jpg)

The LAN, WAN, and DMZ zones are default zones. Refer to Chapter 14 on page 245 for more information on zones.

![](images/3439a0150cee93bcb18544ac18455c9f4bb9ddc6d189a4f858ab26da08be6bff.jpg)

If you create a new zone, there is no default firewall rule for it and any packets sent to or from the new zone are allowed.

<h1 id="1921-rule-directions">19.2.1 Rule Directions</h1>

The following table shows you the default firewall rules that inspect packets going through the ZyWALL.

![](images/402a62de53fa2981c3a5ac85c23f521983aef5eed590e4059e025b9c482f1723.jpg)

The ZyWALL checks the firewall rules before the application patrol rules for traffic going through the ZyWALL.

If you want to use a service, make sure both the firewall and application patrol allow the service's packets to go through the ZyWALL.

You can use the firewall to block a service with a static port number. To block a service using a flexible/dynamic port number by inspecting the service's packets, you need to use application patrol. See the chapter about application patrol for more information.

The following table explains the default firewall rules for traffic going through the ZyWALL. See Section 19.2.1.2 on page 279 for details on the firewall rules for traffic going to the ZyWALL itself.

Table 84 Default Firewall Rules   

<table><tr><td>FROM ZONE TO ZONE</td><td>STATEFUL PACKET INSPECTION</td></tr><tr><td>From LAN to LAN</td><td>Traffic between interfaces in the LAN is allowed.</td></tr><tr><td>From LAN to WAN</td><td>Traffic from the LAN to the WAN is allowed.</td></tr><tr><td>From LAN to DMZ</td><td>Traffic from the LAN to the DMZ is allowed.</td></tr><tr><td>From WAN to LAN</td><td>Traffic from the WAN to the LAN is dropped.</td></tr><tr><td>From WAN to WAN</td><td>Traffic between interfaces in the WAN is dropped.</td></tr><tr><td>From WAN to DMZ</td><td>Traffic from the WAN to the DMZ is allowed.</td></tr><tr><td>From WAN to ZyWALL</td><td>Traffic from the WAN to the ZyWALL itself is dropped except for the traffic types described in Section 19.2.1.2 on page 279.</td></tr><tr><td>From DMZ to LAN</td><td>Traffic from the DMZ to the LAN is dropped.</td></tr><tr><td>From DMZ to WAN</td><td>Traffic from the DMZ to the WAN is dropped.</td></tr><tr><td>From DMZ to DMZ</td><td>Traffic between interfaces in the DMZ is dropped.</td></tr></table>

![](images/ea16469f4d0eec02e8fe3f96fa44e3307e4865d0630cde8eabeca163bbb6bf14.jpg)

If you enable intra-zone traffic blocking (see the chapter about zones), the firewall automatically creates (implicit) rules to deny packet passage between the interfaces in the specified zone.

![](images/a4292490c75d8c8b0b31559b5bcc6280f808681003196a476c41171146a6124e.jpg)

You also need to configure virtual servers (NAT port forwarding) to allow computers on the WAN to access devices on the LAN. See Chapter 16 on page 255 for more information.

<h1 id="19211-global-firewall-rules">19.2.1.1 Global Firewall Rules</h1>

If an interface or VPN tunnel is not included in a zone, only the global firewall rules (with from any to any direction) apply to traffic going to and from that interface.

<h1 id="19212-to-zywall-rules">19.2.1.2 To-ZyWALL Rules</h1>

Rules with ZyWALL as the To Zone apply to traffic going to the ZyWALL itself. By default, the firewall allows any computer from the LAN zone to access or manage the ZyWALL. By default, the ZyWALL drops most packets from the WAN or DMZ zone to the ZyWALL itself, except for VRRP traffic for Device HA and ESP/AH/IKE/NATT/HTTPS services for VPN tunnels, and generates a log.

When you configure a to-ZyWALL rule for packets destined for the ZyWALL itself, make sure it does not conflict with your service control rule. See Chapter 43 on page 575 for more information about service control (remote management).

You can configure a to-ZyWALL firewall rule (with From Any To ZyWALL direction) for traffic from an interface which is not in a zone.

<h1 id="1922-firewall-and-vpn-traffic">19.2.2 Firewall and VPN Traffic</h1>

After you create a VPN tunnel and apply it to a zone, you can set the firewall rules applied to VPN traffic. If you add a VPN tunnel to an existing zone (the LAN zone for example), you can configure a new LAN to LAN firewall rule or use intra-zone traffic blocking to allow or block VPN traffic transmitting between the VPN tunnel and other interfaces in the LAN zone. If you add the VPN tunnel to a new zone (the VPN zone for example), you can configure rules for VPN traffic between the VPN zone and other zones or From VPN To-ZyWALL rules for VPN traffic destined for the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="193-firewall-rule-example-applications">19.3 Firewall Rule Example Applications</h1>

Suppose that your company decides to block all of the LAN users from using IRC (Internet Relay Chat) through the Internet. To do this, you would configure a LAN to WAN firewall rule that blocks IRC traffic from any source IP address from going to any destination address. You do not need to specify a schedule since you need the firewall rule to always be in effect. The following figure shows the results of this rule.

![](images/0e4b3817ed00b89d2d561488d722ac76d47e63364fe5ffb54ce365b02c718f81.jpg)  
Figure 183 Blocking All LAN to WAN IRC Traffic Example

Your firewall would have the following configuration.

Table 85 Blocking All LAN to WAN IRC Traffic Example   

<table><tr><td>#</td><td>USER</td><td>SOURCE</td><td>DESTINATION</td><td>SCHEDULE</td><td>SERVICE</td><td>ACTION</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>IRC</td><td>Deny</td></tr><tr><td>Default</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Allow</td></tr></table>

- The first row blocks LAN access to the IRC service on the WAN.   
- The second row is the firewall's default policy that allows all traffic from the LAN to go to the WAN.

The ZyWALL applies the firewall rules in order. So for this example, when the ZyWALL receives traffic from the LAN, it checks it against the first rule. If the traffic matches (if it is IRC traffic) the firewall takes the action in the rule (drop) and stops checking the firewall rules. Any traffic that does not match the first firewall rule will match the default rule and the ZyWALL forwards it.

Now suppose that your company wants to let the CEO use IRC. You can configure a LAN to WAN firewall rule that allows IRC traffic from the IP address of the CEO's computer. You can also configure a LAN to WAN rule that allows IRC traffic from any computer through which the CEO logs into the ZyWALL with his/her user name. In order to make sure that the CEO's computer always uses the same IP address, make sure it either:

- Has a static IP address, or   
- You configure a static DHCP entry for it so the ZyWALL always assigns it the same IP address (see Section 10.1.4 on page 182 for information on DHCP).

Now you configure a LAN to WAN firewall rule that allows IRC traffic from the IP address of the CEO's computer (192.168.1.7 for example) to go to any destination address. You do not need to specify a schedule since you want the firewall rule to always be in effect. The following figure shows the results of your two custom rules.

![](images/70dd0f5e1783ddad11e70c43c9f1e07e2861377375469d5dc629540e37ee649c.jpg)  
Figure 184 Limited LAN to WAN IRC Traffic Example

Your firewallwould have the following configuration.

Table 86 Limited LAN to WAN IRC Traffic Example 1   

<table><tr><td>#</td><td>USER</td><td>SOURCE</td><td>DESTINATION</td><td>SCHEDULE</td><td>SERVICE</td><td>ACTION</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>Any</td><td>192.168.1.7</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>IRC</td><td>Allow</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>IRC</td><td>Deny</td></tr><tr><td>Default</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Allow</td></tr></table>

- The first row allows the LAN computer at IP address 192.168.1.7 to access the IRC service on the WAN.   
- The second row blocks LAN access to the IRC service on the WAN.   
- The third row is (still) the firewall's default policy of allowing all traffic from the LAN to go to the WAN.

Alternatively, you configure a LAN to WAN rule with the CEO's user name (say CEO) to allow IRC traffic from any source IP address to go to any destination address.

Your firewall would have the following configuration.

Table 87 Limited LAN to WAN IRC Traffic Example 2   

<table><tr><td>#</td><td>USER</td><td>SOURCE</td><td>DESTINATION</td><td>SCHEDULE</td><td>SERVICE</td><td>ACTION</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>CEO</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>IRC</td><td>Allow</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>IRC</td><td>Deny</td></tr><tr><td>Default</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Any</td><td>Allow</td></tr></table>

- The first row allows any LAN computer to access the IRC service on the WAN by logging into the ZyWALL with the CEO's user name.   
- The second row blocks LAN access to the IRC service on the WAN.   
- The third row is (still) the firewall's default policy of allowing all traffic from the LAN to go to the WAN.

The rule for the CEO must come before the rule that blocks all LAN to WAN IRC traffic. If the rule that blocks all LAN to WAN IRC traffic came first, the CEO's IRC traffic would match that rule and the ZyWALL would drop it and not check any other firewall rules.

<h1 id="194-alerts">19.4 Alerts</h1>

You can choose to generate an alert or log when a rule is matched and have the ZyWALL send an immediate e-mail message to you. Otherwise, see the logs created (for the categories you specified) in the View Log screen. Refer to the chapter on logs for details.

<h1 id="195-asymmetrical-routes">19.5 Asymmetrical Routes</h1>

If an alternate gateway on the LAN has an IP address in the same subnet as the ZyWALL's LAN IP address, return traffic may not go through the ZyWALL. This is called an asymmetrical or "triangle" route. This causes the ZyWALL to reset the connection, as the connection has not been acknowledged.

You can have the ZyWALL permit the use of asymmetrical route topology on the network (not reset the connection).

Allowing asymmetrical routes may let traffic from the WAN go directly to the LAN without passing through the ZyWALL. A better solution is to use virtual interfaces to put the ZyWALL and the backup gateway on separate subnets.

<h1 id="1951-virtual-interfaces-and-asymmetrical-routes">19.5.1 Virtual Interfaces and Asymmetrical Routes</h1>

You can use virtual interfaces instead of allowing asymmetrical routes. Virtual interfaces allow you to partition your network into logical sections over the same interface. See the chapter about interfaces for more information.

By putting your LAN and Gateway A in different subnets, all returning network traffic must pass through the ZyWALL to your LAN. The following steps describe such a scenario.

1 A computer on the LAN initiates a connection by sending a SYN packet to a receiving server on the WAN.   
2 The ZyWALL reroutes the packet to Gateway A, which is in Subnet 2.   
3 The reply from the WAN goes to the ZyWALL.   
4 The ZyWALL then sends it to the computer on the LAN in Subnet 1.

<h1 id="ipsec-vpn">IPSec VPN</h1>

This chapter explains how to set up and maintain IPSec VPNs in the ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.4 on page 116 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="201-ipsec-vpn-overview">20.1 IPSec VPN Overview</h1>

A virtual private network (VPN) provides secure communications between sites without the expense of leased site-to-site lines. A secure VPN is a combination of tunneling, encryption, authentication, access control and auditing. It is used to transport traffic over the Internet or any insecure network that uses TCP/IP for communication.

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) is a standards-based VPN that offers flexible solutions for secure data communications across a public network like the Internet. IPSec is built around a number of standardized cryptographic techniques to provide confidentiality, data integrity and authentication at the IP layer.

The following figure is one example of a VPN tunnel.

![](images/3f8aca75dca1e18bc6c4a3b26cf5b7c38d68e730d010e508bf39e6deffe472bd.jpg)  
Figure 194 VPN: Example

The VPN tunnel connects the ZyWALL (X) and the remote IPSec router (Y). These routers then connect the local network (A) and remote network (B).

A VPN tunnel is usually established in two phases. Each phase establishes a security association (SA), a contract indicating what security parameters the ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router will use. The first phase establishes an Internet Key Exchange (IKE) SA between the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router. The second phase uses the IKE SA to securely establish an IPSec SA through which the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router can send data between computers on the local network and remote network. This is illustrated in the following figure.

![](images/615f06b01e467692971f9c8489ef0c713f0fbd3f9a921a6b932e7cc446cc4ceb.jpg)  
Figure 195 VPN: IKE SA and IPSec SA

In this example, a computer in network A is exchanging data with a computer in network B. Inside networks A and B, the data is transmitted the same way data is normally transmitted in the networks. Between routers X and Y, the data is protected by tunneling, encryption, authentication, and other security features of the IPSec SA. The IPSec SA is secure because routers X and Y established the IKE SA first.

The rest of this section discusses IKE SA and IPSec SA in more detail.

<h1 id="2011-ipsec-sa-overview">20.1.1 IPSec SA Overview</h1>

Once the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router have established the IKE SA, they can securely negotiate an IPSec SA through which to send data between computers on the networks.

![](images/dc99a759367cbbd0bb917e37b82b3ab0aacbe929ac2d3448b511f5494f7eda27.jpg)

The IPSec SA stays connected even if the underlying IKE SA is not available anymore.

This section introduces the key components of an IPSec SA.

<h1 id="20111-local-network-and-remote-network">20.1.1.1 Local Network and Remote Network</h1>

In IPSec SA, the local network, the one(s) connected to the ZyWALL, may be called the local policy. Similarly, the remote network, the one(s) connected to the remote IPSec router, may be called the remote policy.

<h1 id="20112-active-protocol">20.1.1.2 Active Protocol</h1>

The active protocol controls the format of each packet. It also specifies how much of each packet is protected by the encryption and authentication algorithms. IPSec VPN includes two active protocols, AH (Authentication Header, RFC 2402) and ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload, RFC 2406).

![](images/1f3de1a51f8bd2a443e8442344040f47e1dcd0090f8e5d0c0cd5745b80a867e6.jpg)

The ZyWALL and remote IPSec router must use the same active protocol.

Usually, you should select ESP. AH does not support encryption, and ESP is more suitable with NAT.

<h1 id="20113-encapsulation">20.1.1.3 Encapsulation</h1>

There are two ways to encapsulate packets. Usually, you should use tunnel mode because it is more secure. Transport mode is only used when the IPSec SA is used for communication between the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router (for example, for remote management), not between computers on the local and remote networks.

![](images/6a8a84a99f10da886cce69937ffda72a81b047008b1fdb0c7ea8f385a5f17861.jpg)

The ZyWALL and remote IPSec router must use the same encapsulation.

These modes are illustrated below.

![](images/e4603e4ef675d3650b1adb1b0dac2617151479ce3be91d28680eea51c018c8e0.jpg)  
Figure 196 VPN: Transport and Tunnel Mode Encapsulation

In tunnel mode, the ZyWALL uses the active protocol to encapsulate the entire IP packet. As a result, there are two IP headers:

- Outside header: The outside IP header contains the IP address of the ZyWALL or remote IPSec router, whichever is the destination.   
- Inside header: The inside IP header contains the IP address of the computer behind the ZyWALL or remote IPSec router. The header for the active protocol (AH or ESP) appears between the IP headers.

In transport mode, the encapsulation depends on the active protocol. With AH, the ZyWALL includes part of the original IP header when it encapsulates the packet. With ESP, however, the ZyWALL does not include the IP header when it encapsulates the packet, so it is not possible to verify the integrity of the source IP address.

<h1 id="20114-ipsec-sa-proposal-and-perfect-forward-secrecy">20.1.1.4 IPSec SA Proposal and Perfect Forward Secrecy</h1>

An IPSec SA proposal is similar to an IKE SA proposal (see Section 20.4.1.2 on page 307), except that you also have the choice whether or not the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router perform a new DH key exchange every time an IPSec SA is established. This is called Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS).

If you enable PFS, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router perform a DH key exchange every time an IPSec SA is established, changing the root key from which encryption keys are generated. As a result, if one encryption key is compromised, other encryption keys remain secure.

If you do not enable PFS, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router use the same root key that was generated when the IKE SA was established to generate encryption keys.

The DH key exchange is time-consuming and may be unnecessary for data that does not require such security.

<h1 id="2012-additional-topics-for-ipsec-sa">20.1.2 Additional Topics for IPSec SA</h1>

This section provides more information about IPSec SA in your ZyWALL.

<h1 id="20121-ipsec-sa-using-manual-keys">20.1.2.1 IPSec SA using Manual Keys</h1>

You might set up an IPSec SA using manual keys when you want to establish a VPN tunnel quickly, for example, for troubleshooting. You should only do this as a temporary solution, however, because it is not as secure as a regular IPSec SA.

In IPSec SAs using manual keys, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router do not establish an IKE SA. They only establish an IPSec SA. As a result, an IPSec SA using manual keys has some characteristics of IKE SA and some characteristics of IPSec SA. There are also some differences between IPSec SA using manual keys and other types of SA.

<h1 id="201211-ipsec-sa-proposal-using-manual-keys">20.1.2.1.1 IPSec SA Proposal using Manual Keys</h1>

In IPSec SA using manual keys, you can only specify one encryption algorithm and one authentication algorithm. You cannot specify several proposals. There is no DH key exchange, so you have to provide the encryption key and the authentication key the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router use.

![](images/bf8078fdadf202863bf697f2179ef76c08f604dae8bdbbcfd4ecd0f47a8d9eca.jpg)

The ZyWALL and remote IPSec router must use the same encryption key and authentication key.

<h1 id="201212-authentication-and-the-security-parameter-index-spi">20.1.2.1.2 Authentication and the Security Parameter Index (SPI)</h1>

For authentication, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router use the SPI, instead of pre-shared keys, ID type and content. The SPI is an identification number.

![](images/ed29e54fc114aec52db54753f685db83c9c2c4b0e32b46c0caee2655c54afc57.jpg)

The ZyWALL and remote IPSec router must use the same SPI.

<h1 id="20122-nat-for-inbound-and-outbound-traffic">20.1.2.2 NAT for Inbound and Outbound Traffic</h1>

The ZyWALL can translate the following types of network addresses in IPSec SA.

- Source address in outbound packets - this translation is necessary if you want the ZyWALL to route packets from computers outside the local network through the IPSec SA.   
- Source address in inbound packets - this translation hides the source address of computers in the remote network.   
- Destination address in inbound packets - this translation is used if you want to forward packets (for example, mail) from the remote network to a specific computer (like the mail server) in the local network.

Each kind of translation is explained below. The following example is used to help explain each one.

![](images/404fcd45093777993cd8bf2d51da6f8014cbf03ff0d46cd4aa52562c0db7364f.jpg)  
Figure 197 VPN Example: NAT for Inbound and Outbound Traffic

<h1 id="201221-source-address-in-outbound-packets-outbound-traffic-source-nat">20.1.2.2.1 Source Address in Outbound Packets (Outbound Traffic, Source NAT)</h1>

This translation lets the ZyWALL route packets from computers that are not part of the specified local network (local policy) through the IPSec SA. For example, in Figure 197 on page 295, you have to configure this kind of translation if you want computer M to establish a connection with any computer in the remote network (B). If you do not configure it, the remote IPSec router may not route messages for computer M through the IPSec SA because computer M's IP address is not part of its local policy.

To set up this NAT, you have to specify the following information:

- Source - the original source address; most likely, computer M's network.   
- Destination - the original destination address; the remote network (B).   
- SNAT - the translated source address; the local network (A).

<h1 id="201222-source-address-in-inbound-packets-inbound-traffic-source-nat">20.1.2.2.2 Source Address in Inbound Packets (Inbound Traffic, Source NAT)</h1>

You can set up this translation if you want to change the source address of computers in the remote network. To set up this NAT, you have to specify the following information:

- Source - the original source address; the remote network (B).

- Destination - the original destination address; the local network (A).   
- SNAT - the translated source address; a different IP address (range of addresses) to hide the original source address.

<h1 id="201223-destination-address-in-inbound-packets-inbound-traffic-destination-nat">20.1.2.2.3 Destination Address in Inbound Packets (Inbound Traffic, Destination NAT)</h1>

You can set up this translation if you want the ZyWALL to forward some packets from the remote network to a specific computer in the local network. For example, in Figure 197 on page 295, you can configure this kind of translation if you want to forward mail from the remote network to the mail server in the local network (A).

You have to specify one or more rules when you set up this kind of NAT. The ZyWALL checks these rules similar to the way it checks rules for a firewall. The first part of these rules define the conditions in which the rule apply.

- Original IP - the original destination address; the remote network (B).   
- Protocol - the protocol [TCP, UDP, or both] used by the service requesting the connection.   
- Original Port - the original destination port or range of destination ports; in Figure 197 on page 295, it might be port 25 for SMTP.

The second part of these rules controls the translation when the condition is satisfied.

- Mapped IP - the translated destination address; in Figure 197 on page 295, the IP address of the mail server in the local network (A).   
- Mapped Port - the translated destination port or range of destination ports.

The original port range and the mapped port range must be the same size.

<h1 id="202-vpn-related-configuration">20.2 VPN Related Configuration</h1>

This section briefly explains the relationship between VPN tunnels and other features. It also gives some basic suggestions for troubleshooting.

You should set up the following features before you set up the VPN tunnel.

- In any VPN connection, you have to select address objects to specify the local policy and remote policy. You should set up the address objects first.   
- In a VPN gateway, you can select an Ethernet interface, virtual Ethernet interface, VLAN interface, or virtual VLAN interface to specify what address the ZyWALL uses IP address when it establishes the IKE SA. You should set up the interface first. See Chapter 10 on page 179.   
- In a VPN gateway, you can enable extended authentication. If the ZyWALL runs in server mode, you should set up the authentication method (AAA server) first. The authentication method specifies how the ZyWALL authenticates the remote IPSec router. See Chapter 38 on page 531.   
- In a VPN gateway, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router can use certificates to authenticate each other. You should import the certificate first. See Chapter 40 on page 545.

You should set up the following features before the network can use the VPN tunnel.

- The ZyWALL does not put IPSec SA in the routing table. You must create a policy route for the VPN tunnel. See Chapter 12 on page 225.

- Make sure the to-ZyWALL firewall rules allow IPSec VPN traffic to the ZyWALL. IKE uses UDP port 500, AH uses IP protocol 51, and ESP uses IP protocol 50.   
- The ZyWALL supports UDP port 500 and UDP port 4500 for NAT traversal. If you enable this, make sure the to-ZyWALL firewall rules allow UDP port 4500 too.   
- Make sure regular firewall rules allow traffic between the VPN tunnel and the rest of the network. Regular firewall rules check packets the ZyWALL sends before the ZyWALL encrypts them and check packets the ZyWALL receives after the ZyWALL decrypts them. This depends on the zone to which you assign the VPN tunnel and the zone from which and to which traffic may be routed.   
- If you set up a VPN tunnel across the Internet, make sure your ISP supports AH or ESP.

If there are problems setting up a VPN tunnel, make sure both the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router have the same settings for the VPN tunnel. It is also helpful to have a way to look at the packets that are being sent and received by the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router (for example, packet sniffers).

<h1 id="203-vpn-connection-screens">20.3 VPN Connection Screens</h1>

You use the VPN Connection summary screen to look at the VPN connections you have set up, and you use the VPN Connection Add/Edit Manual Key and VPN Connection Add/ Edit Gateway screens to create or to edit VPN connections.

<h1 id="2031-vpn-connection-summary">20.3.1 VPN Connection Summary</h1>

The VPN Connection summary screen displays the list of VPN connections, the associated VPN gateway(s), and various settings. In addition, it also lets you activate / deactivate and connect / disconnect each VPN connection (each IPSec SA).

To access this screen, click VPN > IPSec VPN. The following screen appears.

Each VPN connection requires a corresponding policy route.

The VPN wizard automatically creates a corresponding policy route. If you create the VPN connection in the VPN > IPSec VPN screens, you need to manually create a corresponding policy route.

<h1 id="204-vpn-gateway-screens">20.4 VPN Gateway Screens</h1>

You use the VPN Gateway summary screen to look at the VPN gateways you have set up, and you use the VPN Gateway Add/Edit screen to create or to edit VPN gateways.

<h1 id="2041-ike-sa-overview">20.4.1 IKE SA Overview</h1>

The IKE SA provides a secure connection between the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router.

It takes several steps to establish an IKE SA. The negotiation mode determines how many. There are two negotiation modes--main mode and aggressive mode. Main mode provides better security, while aggressive mode is faster.

![](images/dfa05512d3578d3b3ef1ea819894035ea667216c87ee3352a3824e0cae9b1e36.jpg)

Both routers must use the same negotiation mode.

These modes are discussed in more detail in Section 20.4.2.1 on page 310. Main mode is used in various examples in the rest of this section.

<h1 id="20411-ip-addresses-of-the-zywall-and-remote-ipsec-router">20.4.1.1 IP Addresses of the ZyWALL and Remote IPSec router</h1>

To set up an IKE SA, you have to specify the IP addresses of the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router. You can usually enter a static IP address or a domain name for either or both IP addresses. Sometimes, your ZyWALL might offer another alternative, such as using the IP address of a port or interface, as well.

You can also specify the IP address of the remote IPSec router as 0.0.0.0. This means that the remote IPSec router can have any IP address. In this case, only the remote IPSec router can initiate an IKE SA because the ZyWALL does not know the IP address of the remote IPSec router. This is often used for telecommuters.

<h1 id="20412-ike-sa-proposal">20.4.1.2 IKE SA Proposal</h1>

The IKE SA proposal is used to identify the encryption algorithm, authentication algorithm, and Diffie-Hellman (DH) key group that the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router use in the IKE SA. In main mode, this is done in steps 1 and 2, as illustrated next.

![](images/2af7135ec8686cd5ba46a664157323da06ead0415458363dd476e79eb15b9e2b.jpg)  
Figure 201 IKE SA: Main Negotiation Mode, Steps 1 - 2: IKE SA Proposal

The ZyWALL sends one or more proposals to the remote IPSec router. (In some devices, you can only set up one proposal.) Each proposal consists of an encryption algorithm, authentication algorithm, and DH key group that the ZyWALL wants to use in the IKE SA. The remote IPSec router selects an acceptable proposal and sends the accepted proposal back to the ZyWALL. If the remote IPSec router rejects all of the proposals, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router cannot establish an IKE SA.

![](images/9f4f01cadfcb016f3c16cd18ba13711eef9df27091e1088133121863217cf064.jpg)

Both routers must use the same encryption algorithm, authentication algorithm, and DH key group.

In most ZyWALLs, you can select one of the following encryption algorithms for each proposal. The algorithms are listed in order from weakest to strongest.

- Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a widely used method of data encryption. It applies a 56-bit key to each 64-bit block of data.   
- Triple DES (3DES) is a variant of DES. It iterates three times with three separate keys, effectively tripling the strength of DES.   
- Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a newer method of data encryption that also uses a secret key. AES applies a 128-bit key to 128-bit blocks of data. It is faster than 3DES.

Some ZyWALLs also offer stronger forms of AES that apply 192-bit or 256-bit keys to 128-bit blocks of data.

In most ZyWALLs, you can select one of the following authentication algorithms for each proposal. The algorithms are listed in order from weakest to strongest.

- MD5 (Message Digest 5) produces a 128-bit digest to authenticate packet data.   
- SHA1 (Secure Hash Algorithm) produces a 160-bit digest to authenticate packet data.

See Section 20.4.1.3 on page 308 for more information about DH key groups.

<h1 id="20413-diffie-hellman-dh-key-exchange">20.4.1.3 Diffie-Hellman (DH) Key Exchange</h1>

The ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router use DH public-key cryptography to establish a shared secret. The shared secret is then used to generate encryption keys for the IKE SA and IPSec SA. In main mode, this is done in steps 3 and 4, as illustrated next.

Diffie-Hellman key exchange

DH public-key cryptography is based on DH key groups. Each key group is a fixed number of bits long. The longer the key, the more secure the encryption, but also the longer it takes to encrypt and decrypt information. For example, DH2 keys (1024 bits) are more secure than DH1 keys (768 bits), but DH2 keys take longer to encrypt and decrypt.

<h1 id="20414-authentication">20.4.1.4 Authentication</h1>

Before the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router establish an IKE SA, they have to verify each other's identity. This process is based on pre-shared keys and router identities.

In main mode, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router authenticate each other in steps 5 and 6, as illustrated below. The identities are also encrypted using the encryption algorithm and encryption key the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router selected in previous steps.

![](images/a1c6bd05f29efafef1ccc641ed87a82e7734d73c69f107a83030aea2c7b3e134.jpg)

You have to create (and distribute) a pre-shared key. The ZyWALL and remote IPSec router use it in the authentication process, though it is not actually transmitted or exchanged.

![](images/2965c264f10dd0b3a85c383391d5e63c74fa6bf462e306c6af2a3e3bb3cfc9db.jpg)

The ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router must use the same pre-shared key.

Router identity consists of ID type and content. The ID type can be domain name, IP address, or e-mail address, and the content is a (properly-formatted) domain name, IP address, or e-mail address. The content is only used for identification. Any domain name or e-mail address that you enter does not have to actually exist. Similarly, any domain name or IP address that you enter does not have to correspond to the ZyWALL's or remote IPSec router's properties.

The ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router have their own identities, so both of them must store two sets of information, one for themselves and one for the other router. Local ID type and content refers to the ID type and content that applies to the router itself, and peer ID type and content refers to the ID type and content that applies to the other router.

![](images/4cee75550266757f3c86328bd6c808f0059a7d44aa9f1b4218eeefb86ffaa1ee.jpg)

The ZyWALL's local and peer ID type and content must match the remote IPSec router's peer and local ID type and content, respectively.

For example, in Table 93 on page 310, the ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router authenticate each other successfully. In contrast, in Table 94 on page 310, the ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router cannot authenticate each other and, therefore, cannot establish an IKE SA.

It is also possible to configure the ZyWALL to ignore the identity of the remote IPSec router. In this case, you usually set the peer ID type to Any. This is less secure, so you should only use this if your ZyWALL provides another way to check the identity of the remote IPSec router (for example, extended authentication) or if you are troubleshootinging a VPN tunnel.

<h1 id="2042-additional-topics-for-ike-sa">20.4.2 Additional Topics for IKE SA</h1>

This section provides more information about IKE SA.

<h1 id="20421-negotiation-mode">20.4.2.1 Negotiation Mode</h1>

There are two negotiation modes--main mode and aggressive mode. Main mode provides better security, while aggressive mode is faster.

Main mode takes six steps to establish an IKE SA.

Steps 1 - 2: The ZyWALL sends its proposals to the remote IPSec router. The remote IPSec router selects an acceptable proposal and sends it back to the ZyWALL.

Steps 3 - 4: The ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router exchange pre-shared keys for authentication and participate in a Diffie-Hellman key exchange, based on the accepted DH key group, to establish a shared secret.

Steps 5 - 6: Finally, the ZyWALL and the remote IPSec router generate an encryption key (from the shared secret), encrypt their identities, and exchange their encrypted identity information for authentication.

In contrast, aggressive mode only takes three steps to establish an IKE SA. Aggressive mode does not provide as much security because the identity of the ZyWALL and the identity of the remote IPSec router are not encrypted. It is usually used in remote-access situations, where the address of the initiator is not known by the responder and both parties want to use pre-shared keys for authentication. For example, the remote IPSec router may be a telecommuter who does not have a static IP address.

<h1 id="20422-vpn-nat-and-nat-traversal">20.4.2.2 VPN, NAT, and NAT Traversal</h1>

In the following example, there is another router (A) between router X and router Y .

![](images/a7fc3569b1b86afe85ae8d9d72b5dbee24b3f53f271b625290d9da8252d08b44.jpg)  
Figure 204 VPN/NAT Example

If router A does NAT, it might change the IP addresses, port numbers, or both. If router X and router Y try to establish a VPN tunnel, the authentication fails because it depends on this information. The routers cannot establish a VPN tunnel.

Most routers like router A now have an IPSec pass-thru feature. This feature helps router A recognize VPN packets and route them appropriately. If router A has this feature, router X and router Y can establish a VPN tunnel as long as the active protocol is ESP. (See Section 20.1.1.2 on page 292 for more information about active protocols.)

If router A does not have an IPSec pass-thru or if the active protocol is AH, you can solve this problem by enabling NAT traversal. In NAT traversal, router X and router Y add an extra header to the IKE SA and IPSec SA packets. If you configure router A to forward these packets unchanged, router X and router Y can establish a VPN tunnel.

You have to do the following things to set up NAT traversal.

- Enable NAT traversal on the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router.   
- Configure the NAT router to forward packets with the extra header unchanged. (See the field description for detailed information about the extra header.)

The extra header may be UDP port 500 or UDP port 4500, depending on the standard(s) the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router support.

<h1 id="20423-extended-authentication">20.4.2.3 Extended Authentication</h1>

Extended authentication is often used when multiple IPSec routers use the same VPN tunnel to connect to a single IPSec router. For example, this might be used with telecommuters.

In extended authentication, one of the routers (the ZyWALL or the remote IPSec router) provides a user name and password to the other router, which uses a local user database and/or an external server to verify the user name and password. If the user name or password is wrong, the routers do not establish an IKE SA.

You can set up the ZyWALL to provide a user name and password to the remote IPSec router, or you can set up the ZyWALL to check a user name and password that is provided by the remote IPSec router.

If you use extended authentication, it takes four more steps to establish an IKE SA. These steps occur at the end, regardless of the negotiation mode (steps 7-10 in main mode, steps 4-7 in aggressive mode).

<h1 id="20424-certificates">20.4.2.4 Certificates</h1>

It is possible for the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router to authenticate each other with certificates. In this case, you do not have to set up the pre-shared key, local identity, or remote identity because the certificates provide this information instead.

- Instead of using the pre-shared key, the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router check the signatures on each other's certificates. Unlike pre-shared keys, the signatures do not have to match.   
- The local and peer ID type and content come from the certificates.

![](images/d28ccb529069e62e95f11ec1f29e10fd9956af64363a2db57a4ed893801f605f.jpg)

You must set up the certificates for the ZyWALL and remote IPSec router first.

<h1 id="205-vpn-concentrator">20.5 VPN Concentrator</h1>

A VPN concentrator combines several VPN connections into one secure network. Figure 207 on page 318 shows an example of this, as well as one alternative approach.

The VPN concentrator is used in the second approach. In the first (fully-meshed) approach, there is a VPN connection between every pair of routers. In the second (hub-and-spoke) approach, there is a VPN connection between each spoke router (B,C,D, and E) and the hub router (A), which uses the VPN concentrator. The VPN concentrator routes VPN traffic between the spoke routers and itself.

The biggest advantage of a VPN concentrator is that it reduces the number of VPN connections that you have to set up and maintain in the network. You might also be able to consolidate the policy routes in each spoke router, depending on the IP addresses and subnets of each spoke.

You should not use a VPN concentrator in every situation, however. The hub router is a single point of failure, so a VPN concentrator is not as appropriate if the connection between spoke routers cannot be down occasionally (maintenance, for example). In addition, there is a significant burden on the hub router. It receives VPN traffic from one spoke, decrypts it, inspects it to find out to which spoke to route it, encrypts it, and sends it to the appropriate spoke. Therefore, a VPN concentrator is more suitable when there is a minimum amount of traffic between spoke routers.

<h1 id="2061-regular-expressions-in-searching-ipsec-sas-by-name-or-policy">20.6.1 Regular Expressions in Searching IPSec SAs by Name or Policy</h1>

A question mark (?) lets a single character in the VPN connection or policy name vary. For example, use “a?c” (without the quotation marks) to specify abc, acc and so on.

Wildcards (*) let multiple VPN connection or policy names match the pattern. For example, use “*abc” (without the quotation marks) to specify any VPN connection or policy name that ends with “abc”. A VPN connection named “testabc” would match. There could be any number (of any type) of characters in front of the “abc” at the end and the VPN connection or policy name would still match. A VPN connection or policy name named “testace” for example would not match.

A * in the middle of a VPN connection or policy name has the ZyWALL check the beginning and end and ignore the middle. For example, with “abc*123”, any VPN connection or policy name starting with “abc” and ending in “123” matches, no matter how many characters are in between.

The whole VPN connection or policy name has to match if you do not use a question mark or asterisk.

This chapter shows you how to set up secure SSL VPN access for remote user login. See Section 5.4.5 on page 116 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="211-ssl-access-policy">21.1 SSL Access Policy</h1>

An SSL access policy allows the ZyWALL to perform the following tasks:

- limit user access to specific applications or files on the network.   
- allow user access to specific networks.   
- assign private IP addresses and provide DNS/WINS server information to remote users to access internal networks.

<h1 id="2111-ssl-access-policy-objects">21.1.1 SSL Access Policy Objects</h1>

Your ZyWALL uses the object-based configuration approach in which related settings are grouped into an object. Once you have set up an object, you can apply and reuse it in other configuration screens. Thus, the object-based approach minimizes repetitive configuration steps and helps to reduce management and configuration efforts.

Objects store information and are referenced in the SSL Access Privilege screen. If you update this information, in response to changes, the ZyWALL automatically propagates the changes through the SSL policies that use the object(s). When you delete an SSL policy, the objects are not removed.

The following table gives an overview of the settings you can configure in the corresponding Object screens or through the SSL Access Privilege screen.

Table 100 Objects   

<table><tr><td>OBJECT TYPE</td><td>OBJECT SCREEN</td><td>DESCRIPTION</td></tr><tr><td>User Accounts</td><td>User Account/ User Group</td><td>Configure a user account or user group to which you want to apply this SSL access policy.</td></tr><tr><td>Application</td><td>SSL Application</td><td>Configure an SSL application object to specify the application type and server users are allowed to access.</td></tr><tr><td>IP Pool</td><td>Address</td><td>Configure an address object that defines a range of private IP addresses to assign to user computers so they can access the internal network through a VPN connection.</td></tr><tr><td>Server Addresses</td><td>Address</td><td>Configure address objects for the IP addresses of the DNS and WINS servers that the ZyWALL sends to the VPN connection users.</td></tr><tr><td>VPN Network</td><td>Address</td><td>Configure an address object to specify which network segment users are allowed to access through a VPN connection.</td></tr></table>

This chapter explains how to set up and maintain L2TP VPNs in the ZyWALL. See Section 5.4.6 on page 116 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="251-l2tp-vpn-overview">25.1 L2TP VPN Overview</h1>

L2TP VPN lets remote users use the L2TP and IPSec client software included with their computers' operating systems to securely connect to the network behind the ZyWALL. The remote users do not need their own IPSec gateways or VPN client software.

![](images/a60db195e75c7bbc6cb63ab2c982c253badded6b5aac42e7d4e40d5461a01145.jpg)  
Figure 237 L2TP VPN Overview

The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) works at layer 2 (the data link layer) to tunnel network traffic between two peers over another network (like the Internet). In L2TP VPN, an IPSec VPN tunnel is established first (see Chapter 20 on page 291 for information on IPSec) and then an L2TP tunnel is built inside it.

![](images/55f5cd1e2d4956de1a98727041ebf99cdb1a0bdcc0e2382c6e521164361dd741.jpg)

At the time of writing the L2TP remote user must have a public IP address in order for L2TP VPN to work (the remote user cannot be behind a NAT router or a firewall).

<h1 id="252-ipsec-configuration">25.2 IPSec Configuration</h1>

You must configure an IPSec VPN connection for L2TP VPN to use (see Chapter 20 on page 291 for details). The IPSec VPN connection must:

- Be enabled.

- Use transport mode.   
- Not be a manual key VPN connection.   
- Use Pre-Shared Key authentication.   
- Use a VPN gateway with the Secure Gateway set to 0.0.0.0 if you need to allow L2TP VPN clients to connect from more than one IP address.

<h1 id="2521-using-the-default-l2tp-vpn-connection">25.2.1 Using the Default L2TP VPN Connection</h1>

Default_L2TP_VPN_Connection is pre-configured to be convenient to use for L2TP VPN. If you use it, edit the following.

Configure the local and remote policies as follows.

- For the Local Policy, create an address object that uses host type and contains the My Address IP address that you configured in the Default_L2TP_VPN_GW. Use this address object in the local policy.   
- For the Remote Policy, create an address object that uses host type and an IP address of 0.0.0.0. Use this address object in the remote policy.

You must also edit the Default_L2TP_VPN_GW gateway entry.

- Configure the My Address setting according to your requirements.   
- Replace the default Pre-Shared Key.

<h1 id="253-policy-route">25.3 Policy Route</h1>

You must configure a policy route to let remote users access resources on a network behind the ZyWALL.

- Set the policy route's Source Address to the address object that you want to allow the remote users to access (LAN_SUBNET in the following figure).   
- Set the Destination Address to the IP address pool that the ZyWALL assigns to the remote users (L2TP_POOL in the following figure).   
- Set the next hop to be the VPN tunnel that you are using for L2TP.

![](images/e3c9f6082ea79cd0aae2235720c2cee103490a93b5e5473d9006d32f4c3753b5.jpg)

<h1 id="application-patrol-2">Application Patrol</h1>

This chapter describes how to use application patrol for the ZyWALL. It provides an overview first and then introduces the screens. See Section 5.4.13 on page 119 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="271-application-patrol-overview">27.1 Application Patrol Overview</h1>

Application patrol provides a convenient way to manage the use of various applications on the network. It manages general protocols (for example, http and ftp) and instant messenger (IM), peer-to-peer (P2P), Voice over IP (VoIP), and streaming (RSTP) applications. You can even control the use of a particular application's individual features (like text messaging, voice, video conferencing, and file transfers). Application patrol also has powerful bandwidth management including traffic prioritization to enhance the performance of delay-sensitive applications like voice and video.

![](images/289afa4fa26a2a941ce8b2a11a4bc194898631a1c3e91e0bfceed06f0c19d3cc.jpg)

The ZyWALL checks firewall rules before it checks application patrol rules for traffic going through the ZyWALL.

If you want to use a service, make sure both the firewall and application patrol allow the service's packets to go through the ZyWALL.

Application patrol examines every TCP and UDP connection passing through the ZyWALL and identifies what application is using the connection. Then, you can specify, by application, whether or not the ZyWALL continues to route the connection.

<h1 id="272-classification-of-applications">27.2 Classification of Applications</h1>

There are two ways the ZyWALL can identify the application. The first approach is called auto. In this approach, the ZyWALL looks at the IP payload (OSI level-7) and attempts to match it with known patterns for specific applications. Usually, this occurs at the beginning of a connection, when the payload is more consistent across connections, and the ZyWALL examines several packets to make sure the match is correct.

![](images/bfe17aa564481a16be69fe17be64d34d5eaac4ac44df3d179aed3992e89d3080.jpg)

The ZyWALL allows the first eight packets to go through the firewall, regardless of the application patrol policy for the application. The ZyWALL examines these first eight packets to identify the application.

The second approach is called service ports. In this approach, the ZyWALL only uses OSI level-3 information, such as IP address and port, to identify what application is using the connection. This approach is available in case the ZyWALL identifies a lot of “false positives” for a particular application.

<h1 id="273-configurable-application-policies">27.3 Configurable Application Policies</h1>

The ZyWALL has policies for individual applications. For each policy, you can specify the default action the ZyWALL takes once it identifies one of the service's connections.

- Forward - the ZyWALL routes the packets for this application.   
- **Drop - the ZyWALL does not route the packets for this application, and it does not notify the client of this decision.**   
- Reject - the ZyWALL does not route the packets for this application, and it notifies the client of this decision.

You can also specify custom policies that have the ZyWALL forward, drop, or reject a service's connections based on criteria that you specify (like the source zone, destination zone, original destination port of the connection, schedule, user, source, and destination information). Your custom policies take priority over the policy's default settings.

<h1 id="274-bandwidth-management">27.4 Bandwidth Management</h1>

When you allow an application, you can restrict the bandwidth it uses or even the bandwidth that particular features in the application (like voice, video, or file sharing) use. This restriction may be ineffective in certain cases, however, such as using MSN to send files via P2P.

The application patrol bandwidth management is more flexible and powerful than the bandwidth management in policy routes. Application patrol controls TCP and UDP traffic. Use policy routes to manage other types of traffic (like ICMP).

![](images/ab77196a623b49aefd0caa48f2957d5311e92a16d7d7e96a9c1cece71c6ab70c.jpg)

Bandwidth management in policy routes has priority over application patrol bandwidth management. It is recommended to use application patrol bandwidth management for TCP and UDP traffic and remove it from the policy routes.

<h1 id="2741-connection-and-packet-directions">27.4.1 Connection and Packet Directions</h1>

Application patrol looks at the connection direction, that is from which zone the connection was initiated and to which zone the connection is going.

A connection has outbound and inbound packet flows. The ZyWALL controls the bandwidth of traffic of each flow as it is going out through an interface or VPN tunnel.

- The outbound traffic flows from the connection initiator to the connection responder.   
- The inbound traffic flows from the connection responder to the connection initiator.

For example, a LAN to WAN connection is initiated from the LAN and goes to the WAN.

- Outbound traffic goes from a LAN zone device to a WAN zone device. Bandwidth management is applied before sending the packets out a WAN zone interface on the ZyWALL.   
- Inbound traffic comes back from the WAN zone device to the LAN zone device. Bandwidth management is applied before sending the traffic out a LAN zone interface.

![](images/ad7c86942d4be3cd620828fe87315dbb1135d3ebb718efc7e459c47559e3c1a7.jpg)  
Figure 296 LAN to WAN Connection and Packet Directions

<h1 id="2742-outbound-and-inbound-bandwidth-limits">27.4.2 Outbound and Inbound Bandwidth Limits</h1>

You can limit an application's outbound or inbound bandwidth. This limit keeps the traffic from using up too much of the out-going interface's bandwidth. This way you can make sure there is bandwidth for other applications. When you apply a bandwidth limit to outbound or inbound traffic, each member of the out-going zone can send up to the limit.

Take a LAN to WAN policy for example.

- Outbound traffic is limited to 200 kbps. The connection initiator is on the LAN so outbound means the traffic traveling from the LAN to the WAN. Each of the WAN zone's two interfaces can send the limit of 200 kbps of traffic.   
- Inbound traffic is limited to 500 kbs. The connection initiator is on the LAN so inbound means the traffic traveling from the WAN to the LAN.

![](images/984d2e707183ebb0e1a91a425e4fa44b244e3759667ff51f3881e53b4e1df714.jpg)  
Figure 297 LAN to WAN, Outbound 200 kbps, Inbound 500 kbps

<h1 id="2743-bandwidth-management-priority">27.4.3 Bandwidth Management Priority</h1>

The ZyWALL gives bandwidth to higher-priority traffic first, until it reaches its configured bandwidth rate.

Then lower-priority traffic gets bandwidth.

The ZyWALL uses a fairness-based (round-robin) scheduler to divide bandwidth among traffic flows with the same priority.

The ZyWALL automatically treats traffic with bandwidth management disabled as priority 7 (the lowest priority).

<h1 id="2744-maximize-bandwidth-usage">27.4.4 Maximize Bandwidth Usage</h1>

Maximize bandwidth usage allows applications with maximize bandwidth usage enabled to "borrow" any unused bandwidth on the out-going interface.

After each application gets its configured bandwidth rate, the ZyWALL uses the fairness-based scheduler to divide any unused bandwidth on the out-going interface amongst applications that need more bandwidth and have maximize bandwidth usage enabled.

Unused bandwidth is divided equally. Higher priority traffic does not get a larger portion of the unused bandwidth.

<h1 id="2745-bandwidth-management-behavior">27.4.5 Bandwidth Management Behavior</h1>

This section shows how bandwidth management behaves with various settings. For example, you configure DMZ to WAN policies for FTP servers A and B. Each server tries to send 1000 kbps, but the WAN is set to a maximum outgoing speed of 1000 kbps. You configure policy A for server A's traffic and policy B for server B's traffic.

![](images/c2317f97d22ac7aa011f2d40b553196b6ba94cf389c1e11e6b71d72a67b68729.jpg)  
Figure 298 Bandwidth Management Behavior

<h1 id="27451-configured-rate-effect">27.4.5.1 Configured Rate Effect</h1>

In the following table the configured rates total less than the available bandwidth and maximize bandwidth usage is disabled, both servers get their configured rate.

Table 108 Configured Rate Effect   

<table><tr><td>POLICY</td><td>CONFIGURED RATE</td><td>MAX. B. U.</td><td>PRIORITY</td><td>ACTUAL RATE</td></tr><tr><td>A</td><td>300 kbps</td><td>No</td><td>1</td><td>300 kbps</td></tr><tr><td>B</td><td>200 kbps</td><td>No</td><td>1</td><td>200 kbps</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="27452-priority-effect">27.4.5.2 Priority Effect</h1>

Here the configured rates total more than the available bandwidth. Because server A has higher priority, it gets up to it's configured rate (800 kbps), leaving only 200 kbps that server B can use.

Table 109 Priority Effect   

<table><tr><td>POLICY</td><td>CONFIGURED RATE</td><td>MAX. B. U.</td><td>PRIORITY</td><td>ACTUAL RATE</td></tr><tr><td>A</td><td>800 kbps</td><td>Yes</td><td>1</td><td>800 kbps</td></tr><tr><td>B</td><td>1000 kbps</td><td>Yes</td><td>2</td><td>200 kbps</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="27453-maximize-bandwidth-usage-effect">27.4.5.3 Maximize Bandwidth Usage Effect</h1>

With maximize bandwidth usage enabled, after each server gets its configured rate, the rest of the available bandwidth is divided equally between the two. So server A gets its configured rate of 300 kbps and server B gets its configured rate of 200 kbps. Then the ZyWALL divides the remaining bandwidth (1000 - 500 = 500) equally between the two (500 / 2 = 250 kbps for each). The priority has no effect on how much of the unused bandwidth each server gets.

So server A gets its configured rate of 300 kbps plus 250 kbps for a total of 550 kbps. Server B gets its configured rate of 200 kbps plus 250 kbps for a total of 450 kbps.

Table 110 Maximize Bandwidth Usage Effect   

<table><tr><td>POLICY</td><td>CONFIGURED RATE</td><td>MAX. B. U.</td><td>PRIORITY</td><td>ACTUAL RATE</td></tr><tr><td>A</td><td>300 kbps</td><td>Yes</td><td>1</td><td>550 kbps</td></tr><tr><td>B</td><td>200 kbps</td><td>Yes</td><td>2</td><td>450 kbps</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="27454-priority-and-over-allotment-of-bandwidth-effect">27.4.5.4 Priority and Over Allotment of Bandwidth Effect</h1>

Server A has a configured rate that equals the total amount of available bandwidth and a higher priority. You should regard extreme over allotment of traffic with different priorities (as shown here) as a configuration error. Even though the ZyWALL still attempts to let all traffic get through and not be lost, regardless of its priority, server B gets almost no bandwidth with this configuration.

Table 111 Priority and Over Allotment of Bandwidth Effect   

<table><tr><td>POLICY</td><td>CONFIGURED RATE</td><td>MAX. B. U.</td><td>PRIORITY</td><td>ACTUAL RATE</td></tr><tr><td>A</td><td>1000 kbps</td><td>Yes</td><td>1</td><td>999 kbps</td></tr><tr><td>B</td><td>1000 kbps</td><td>Yes</td><td>2</td><td>1 kbps</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="275-application-patrol-bandwidth-management-examples">27.5 Application Patrol Bandwidth Management Examples</h1>

Bandwidth management is very useful when applications are competing for limited bandwidth. For example, say you have a WAN zone interface connected to an ADSL device with a 8 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream ADSL connection. The following sections give some simplified examples of using application patrol policies to manage applications competing for that 1 Mbps of upstream bandwidth.

Here is an overview of what the rules need to accomplish. See the following sections for more details.

- SIP traffic from VIP users must get through with the least possible delay regardless of if it is an outgoing call or an incoming call. The VIP users must be able to make and receive SIP calls no matter which interface they are connected to.   
- HTTP traffic needs to be given priority over FTP traffic.   
- FTP traffic from the WAN to the DMZ must be limited so it does not interfere with SIP and HTTP traffic.   
- FTP traffic from the LAN to the DMZ can use more bandwidth since the interfaces support up to 1 Gbps connections, but it must be the lowest priority and limited so it does not interfere with SIP and HTTP traffic.

<h1 id="2751-setting-the-interfaces-bandwidth">27.5.1 Setting the Interface's Bandwidth</h1>

Use the interface screens to set the WAN zone interface's upstream bandwidth to be equal to (or slightly less than) what the connected device can support. This example uses 1000 Kbps.

<h1 id="2752-sip-any-to-wan-bandwidth-management-example">27.5.2 SIP Any to WAN Bandwidth Management Example</h1>

- Manage SIP traffic going to the WAN zone from a VIP user on the LAN or DMZ.   
- Outbound traffic (to the WAN from the LAN and DMZ) is limited to 200 kbps. The ZyWALL applies this limit before sending the traffic to the WAN.   
- Inbound traffic (to the LAN and DMZ from the WAN) is also limited to 200 kbps. The ZyWALL applies this limit before sending the traffic to LAN or DMZ.   
- Highest priority (1). Set policies for other applications to lower priorities so the SIP traffic always gets the best treatment.   
- Enable maximize bandwidth usage so the SIP traffic can borrow unused bandwidth.

![](images/4fbd0323e6f7f5a3ba2355fd3b7299b8a5dc78962d59b401d4afe64fb88b05e9.jpg)  
Figure 300 SIP Any to WAN Bandwidth Management Example

<h1 id="2753-sip-wan-to-any-bandwidth-management-example">27.5.3 SIP WAN to Any Bandwidth Management Example</h1>

You also create a policy for calls coming in from the SIP server on the WAN. It is the same as the SIP Any to WAN policy, but with the directions reversed (WAN to Any instead of Any to WAN).

<h1 id="2754-http-any-to-wan-bandwidth-management-example">27.5.4 HTTP Any to WAN Bandwidth Management Example</h1>

- Inbound traffic gets more bandwidth as the local users will probably download more than they upload (and the ADSL connection supports this).   
- Second highest priority (2). Set policies for other applications (except SIP) to lower priorities so the local users' HTTP traffic gets sent before non-SIP traffic.   
- Enable maximize bandwidth usage so the HTTP traffic can borrow unused bandwidth.

<h1 id="2755-ftp-wan-to-dmz-bandwidth-management-example">27.5.5 FTP WAN to DMZ Bandwidth Management Example</h1>

- ADSL supports more downstream than upstream so you allow remote users 300 kbps for uploads to the DMZ FTP server (outbound) but only 100 kbps for downloads (inbound).

- Third highest priority (3).   
- Disable maximize bandwidth usage since you do not want to give FTP more bandwidth.

<h1 id="276-other-applications">27.6 Other Applications</h1>

Sometimes, the ZyWALL cannot identify the application. For example, the application might be a new application, or the packets might arrive out of sequence. (The ZyWALL does not reorder packets when identifying the application.) In these cases, you can still provide a default rule for the ZyWALL to follow. You can use source zone, destination zone, destination port, schedule, user, source, and destination information as criteria to create a sequence of specific conditions, similar to the sequence of rules used by firewalls, to specify what the ZyWALL should do more precisely. You can also control the bandwidth used by these other applications.

This chapter introduces and shows you how to configure the anti-virus scanner. See Section 5.4.14 on page 120 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="281-anti-virus-overview">28.1 Anti-Virus Overview</h1>

A computer virus is a small program designed to corrupt and/or alter the operation of other legitimate programs. A worm is a self-replicating virus that resides in active memory and duplicates itself. The effect of a virus attack varies from doing so little damage that you are unaware your computer is infected to wiping out the entire contents of a hard drive to rendering your computer inoperable.

<h1 id="2811-types-of-computer-viruses">28.1.1 Types of Computer Viruses</h1>

The following table describes some of the common computer viruses.

Table 120 Common Computer Virus Types   

<table><tr><td>TYPE</td><td>DESCRIPTION</td></tr><tr><td>File Infection</td><td>This is a small program that embeds itself in a legitimate program. A file infector is able to copy and attach itself to other programs that are executed on an infected computer.</td></tr><tr><td>Boot Sector Virus</td><td>This type of virus infects the area of a hard drive that a computer reads and executes during startup. The virus causes computer crashes and to some extend renders the infected computer inoperable.</td></tr><tr><td>Macro Virus</td><td>Macro viruses or Macros are small programs that are created to perform repetitive actions. Macros run automatically when a file to which they are attached is opened. Macros spread more rapidly than other types of viruses as data files are often shared on a network.</td></tr><tr><td>E-mail Virus</td><td>E-mail viruses are malicious programs that spread through e-mail.</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="2812-computer-virus-infection-and-prevention">28.1.2 Computer Virus Infection and Prevention</h1>

The following describes a simple life cycle of a computer virus.

1 A computer gets a copy of a virus from a source such as the Internet, e-mail, file sharing or any removable storage media. The virus is harmless until the execution of an infected program.   
2 The virus spreads to other files and programs on the computer.   
3 The infected files are unintentionally sent to another computer thus starting the spread of the virus.

4 Once the virus is spread through the network, the number of infected networked computers can grow exponentially.

<h1 id="2813-types-of-anti-virus-scanner">28.1.3 Types of Anti-Virus Scanner</h1>

The section describes two types of anti-virus scanner: host-based and network-based.

A host-based anti-virus (HAV) scanner is often software installed on computers and/or servers in the network. It inspects files for virus patterns as they are moved in and out of the hard drive. However, host-based anti-virus scanners cannot eliminate all viruses for a number of reasons:

- HAV scanners are slow in stopping virus threats through real-time traffic (such as from the Internet).   
- HAV scanners may reduce computing performance as they also share the resources (such as CPU time) on the computer for file inspection.   
- You have to update the virus signatures and/or perform virus scans on all computers in the network regularly.

A network-based anti-virus (NAV) scanner is often deployed as a dedicated security device (such as your ZyWALL) on the network edge. NAV scanners inspect real-time data traffic (such as E-mail messages or web) that tends to bypass HAV scanners. The following lists some of the benefits of NAV scanners.

- NAV scanners stops virus threats at the network edge before they enter or exit a network   
- NAV scanners reduce computing loading on computers as the read-time data traffic inspection is done on a dedicated security device.

<h1 id="282-introduction-to-the-zywall-anti-virus-scanner">28.2 Introduction to the ZyWALL Anti-Virus Scanner</h1>

The ZyWALL has a built-in signature database. Setting up the ZyWALL between your local network and the Internet allows the ZyWALL to scan files transmitting through the enabled interfaces into your network. As a network-based anti-virus scanner, the ZyWALL helps stop threats at the network edge before they reach the local host computers.

You can set the ZyWALL to examine files received through the following protocols:

- FTP (File Transfer Protocol)   
- HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol)   
- SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)   
POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3)   
- IMAP4 (Internet Message Access Protocol version 4)

<h1 id="2821-how-the-zywall-anti-virus-scanner-works">28.2.1 How the ZyWALL Anti-Virus Scanner Works</h1>

The ZyWALL checks traffic going in the direction(s) you specify for signature matches. In the following figure the ZyWALL is set to check traffic coming from the WAN zone (which includes two interfaces) to the LAN zone.

![](images/541460569d308fba1583dbd53b818d39d578897013b51529c9dbfee2b0123790.jpg)  
Figure 313 ZyWALL Anti-virus Example

The following describes the virus scanning process on the ZyWALL.

1 The ZyWALL first identifies SMTP, POP3, IMAP4, HTTP and FTP packets through standard ports.   
2 If the packets are not session connection setup packets (such as SYN, ACK and FIN), the ZyWALL records the sequence of the packets.   
3 The scanning engine checks the contents of the packets for virus.   
4 If a virus pattern is matched, the ZyWALL removes the infected portion of the file along with the rest of the file. The un-infected portion of the file before a virus pattern was matched still goes through.   
5 If the send alert message function is enabled, the ZyWALL sends an alert to the file's intended destination computer(s).

Since the ZyWALL erases the infected portion of the file before sending it, you may not be able to open the file.

<h1 id="2822-notes-about-the-zywall-anti-virus">28.2.2 Notes About the ZyWALL Anti-Virus</h1>

The following lists important notes about the anti-virus scanner:

1 When a virus is detected, an alert message is displayed in Microsoft Windows computers.<sup>4</sup>   
2 The ZyWALL does not scan the following file/traffic types:

- Simultaneous downloads of a file using multiple connections. For example, when you use FlashGet to download sections of a file simultaneously.

- Encrypted traffic. This could be password-protected files or VPN traffic where the ZyWALL is not the endpoint (pass-through VPN traffic).   
- Traffic through custom (non-standard) ports. The only exception is FTP traffic. The ZyWALL scans whatever port number is specified for FTP in the ALG screen.   
- ZIP file(s) within a ZIP file.

This chapter introduces IDP (Intrusion, Detection and Prevention), IDP profiles, binding an IDP profile to a traffic direction, custom signatures and updating signatures. See Section 5.4.15 on page 120 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="291-introduction-to-idp">29.1 Introduction to IDP</h1>

An IDP system can detect malicious or suspicious packets and respond instantaneously. It is designed to detect pattern-based attacks.

<h1 id="2911-host-intrusions">29.1.1 Host Intrusions</h1>

The goal of host-based intrusions is to infiltrate files on an individual computer or server in with the goal of accessing confidential information or destroying information on a computer.

You must install a host IDP directly on the system being protected. It works closely with the operating system, monitoring and intercepting system calls to the kernel or APIs in order to prevent attacks as well as log them.

Disadvantages of host IDPs are that you have to install them on each device (that you want to protect) in your network and due to the necessarily tight integration with the host operating system, future operating system upgrades could cause problems.

<h1 id="2912-network-intrusions">29.1.2 Network Intrusions</h1>

Network-based intrusions have the goal of bringing down a network or networks by attacking computer(s), switch(es), router(s) or modem(s). If a LAN switch is compromised for example, then the whole LAN is compromised. Host-based intrusions may be used to cause network-based intrusions when the goal of the host virus is to propagate attacks on the network, or attack computer/server operating system vulnerabilities with the goal of bringing down the computer/server. Typical "network-based intrusions" are SQL slammer, Blaster, Nimda MyDoom etc.

<h1 id="2913-idp-on-the-zywall">29.1.3 IDP on the ZyWALL</h1>

IDP on the ZyWALL protects against network-based intrusions. See Section 29.8.2 on page 427 for a list of attacks that the ZyWALL can protect against. You can also create your own custom IDP rules.

<h1 id="2914-signatures">29.1.4 Signatures</h1>

If a packet matches a signature, the action specified by the signature is taken. You can change the default signature actions in the profile screens.

<h1 id="292-traffic-directions-and-profiles">29.2 Traffic Directions and Profiles</h1>

A zone is a combination of ZyWALL interfaces and VPN connections for security. See the zone chapter for details on zones and the interfaces chapter for details on interfaces. Traffic direction is defined by the zone the traffic is coming from and the zone the traffic is going to.

An IDP profile is a set of IDP rules with configured activation, log and action settings. The ZyWALL comes with default profiles that you can bind to traffic directions. For example, by default, the default LAN_IDP profile is bound to any traffic going to the LAN zone. You could use this to protect your LAN computers.

You can also create your own IDP profiles from base profiles. See Table 129 on page 422 for details on base profiles.

![](images/5d156fa558866c5ff0c69ea6bd2a67a7dfd059748eda72b1a5b9b67ccc8165e0.jpg)

You can only bind one profile to one traffic direction.

You must register in order to use packet inspection signatures. See the Registration screens.

If you try to enable IDP when the IDP service has not yet been registered, a warning screen displays and IDP is not enabled.

<h1 id="295-introducing-idp-profiles">29.5 Introducing IDP Profiles</h1>

An IDP profile is a set of packet inspection signatures.

Packet inspection signatures examine packet content for malicious data. Packet inspection applies to OSI (Open System Interconnection) layer-4 to layer-7 contents. You need to subscribe for IDP service in order to be able to download new signatures.

In general, packet inspection signatures are created for known attacks while anomaly detection looks for abnormal behavior (see Chapter 30 on page 445 for information on anomaly detection).

<h1 id="297-creating-new-profiles">29.7 Creating New Profiles</h1>

You may want to create a new profile if not all signatures in a base profile are applicable to your network. In this case you should disable non-applicable signatures so as to improve ZyWALL IDP processing efficiency.

You may also find that certain signatures are triggering too many false positives or false negatives. A false positive is when valid traffic is flagged as an attack. A false negative is when invalid traffic is wrongly allowed to pass through the ZyWALL. As each network is different, false positives and false negatives are common on initial IDP deployment.

You could create a new 'monitor profile' that creates logs but all actions are disabled. Observe the logs over time and try to eliminate the causes of the false alarms. When you're satisfied that they have been reduced to an acceptable level, you could then create an 'inline profile' whereby you configure appropriate actions to be taken when a packet matches a signature.

<h1 id="2982-policy-types">29.8.2 Policy Types</h1>

This section describes IDP policy types, also known as attack types, as categorized in the ZyWALL. You may refer to these types when categorizing your own custom rules.

Table 132 Policy Types   

<table><tr><td>POLICY TYPE</td><td>DESCRIPTION</td></tr><tr><td>P2P</td><td>Peer-to-peer (P2P) is where computing devices link directly to each other and can directly initiate communication with each other; they do not need an intermediary. A device can be both the client and the server. In the ZyWALL, P2P refers to peer-to-peer applications such as e-Mule, e-Donkey, BitTorrent, iMesh, etc.</td></tr><tr><td>IM</td><td>IM (Instant Messaging) refers to chat applications. Chat is real-time, text-based communication between two or more users via networks-connected computers. After you enter a chat (or chat room), any room member can type a message that will appear on the monitors of all the other participants.</td></tr><tr><td>SPAM</td><td>Spam is unsolicited “junk” e-mail sent to large numbers of people to promote products or services.</td></tr><tr><td>DoS/DDoS</td><td>The goal of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network on the Internet.A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is one in which multiple compromised systems attack a single target, thereby causing denial of service for users of the targeted system.</td></tr><tr><td>Scan</td><td>A scan describes the action of searching a network for an exposed service. An attack may then occur once a vulnerability has been found. Scans occur on several network levels.A network scan occurs at layer-3. For example, an attacker looks for network devices such as a router or server running in an IP network.A scan on a protocol is commonly referred to as a layer-4 scan. For example, once an attacker has found a live end system, he looks for open ports.A scan on a service is commonly referred to a layer-7 scan. For example, once an attacker has found an open port, say port 80 on a server, he determines that it is a HTTP service run by some web server application. He then uses a web vulnerability scanner (for example, Nikto) to look for documented vulnerabilities.</td></tr><tr><td>Buffer Overflow</td><td>A buffer overflow occurs when a program or process tries to store more data in a buffer (temporary data storage area) than it was intended to hold. The excess information can overflow into adjacent buffers, corrupting or overwriting the valid data held in them.Intruders could run codes in the overflow buffer region to obtain control of the system, install a backdoor or use the victim to launch attacks on other devices.</td></tr><tr><td>Virus/Worm</td><td>A computer virus is a small program designed to corrupt and/or alter the operation of other legitimate programs. A worm is a program that is designed to copy itself from one computer to another on a network. A worm's uncontrolled replication consumes system resources, thus slowing or stopping other tasks.</td></tr><tr><td>Backdoor/Trojan</td><td>A backdoor (also called a trapdoor) is hidden software or a hardware mechanism that can be triggered to gain access to a program, online service or an entire computer system. A Trojan horse is a harmful program that is hidden inside apparently harmless programs or data.Although a virus, a worm and a Trojan are different types of attacks, they can be blended into one attack. For example, W32/Blaster and W32/Sasser are blended attacks that feature a combination of a worm and a Trojan.</td></tr><tr><td>Access Control</td><td>Access control refers to procedures and controls that limit or detect access.Access control attacks try to bypass validation checks in order to access network resources such as servers, directories, and files.</td></tr><tr><td>Web Attack</td><td>Web attacks refer to attacks on web servers such as IIS (Internet Information Services).</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="2983-idp-service-groups">29.8.3 IDP Service Groups</h1>

An IDP service group is a set of related packet inspection signatures.

It is the combined length of the header and the data.</td></tr><tr><td>Identification</td><td>This is a 16-bit number, which together with the source address, uniquely identifies this packet. It is used during reassembly of fragmented datagrams.</td></tr><tr><td>Flags</td><td>Flags are used to control whether routers are allowed to fragment a packet and to indicate the parts of a packet to the receiver.</td></tr><tr><td>Fragment Offset</td><td>This is a byte count from the start of the original sent packet.</td></tr><tr><td>Time To Live</td><td>This is a counter that decrements every time it passes through a router. When it reaches zero, the datagram is discarded. It is used to prevent accidental routing loops.</td></tr><tr><td>Protocol</td><td>The protocol indicates the type of transport packet being carried, for example, 1 = ICMP; 2 = IGMP; 6 = TCP; 17 = UDP.</td></tr><tr><td>Header Checksum</td><td>This is used to detect processing errors introduced into the packet inside a router or bridge where the packet is not protected by a link layer cyclic redundancy check. Packets with an invalid checksum are discarded by all nodes in an IP network.</td></tr><tr><td>Source IP Address</td><td>This is the IP address of the original sender of the packet.</td></tr><tr><td>Destination IP Address</td><td>This is the IP address of the final destination of the packet.</td></tr><tr><td>Options</td><td>IP options is a variable-length list of IP options for a datagram that define IP Security Option, IP Stream Identifier, (security and handling restrictions for the military), Record Route (have each router record its IP address), Loose Source Routing (specifies a list of IP addresses that must be traversed by the datagram), Strict Source Routing (specifies a list of IP addresses that must ONLY be traversed by the datagram), Timestamp (have each router record its IP address and time), End of IP List and No IP Options.</td></tr><tr><td>Padding</td><td>Padding is used as a filler to ensure that the IP packet is a multiple of 32 bits.</td></tr></table>

The ZyWALL checks all signatures and continues searching even after a match is found. If two or more rules have conflicting actions for the same packet, then the ZyWALL applies the more restrictive action (reject-both, reject-receiver or reject-sender, drop, none in this order). If a packet matches a rule for reject-receiver and it also matches a rule for reject-sender, then the ZyWALL will reject-both.

<h1 id="29102-custom-signature-example">29.10.2 Custom Signature Example</h1>

Before creating a custom signature, you must first clearly understand the vulnerability.

<h1 id="291021-understand-the-vulnerability">29.10.2.1 Understand the Vulnerability</h1>

Check the ZyWALL logs when the attack occurs. Use web sites such as Google and security focus to get as much information about the attack as you can. The more specific your signature, the less chance it will cause false positives.

As an example, say you want to create a signature for the 'Microsoft Windows Plug-and-Play Service Remote Overflow (MS-05-39)' attack. Search the Security Focus web site and you will find it uses the NetBIOS service in established TCP connections to a server using port 445.

<h1 id="291022-analyze-packets">29.10.2.2 Analyze Packets</h1>

Then use a packet sniffer such as TCPdump or Ethereal to investigate some more.

From the NetBIOS header you see that the first byte '00' defines the message type. The next three bytes represent the length of data, so you can ignore it. Therefore enter |00| as the first pattern.

Figure 332 Custom Signature Example Pattern 1

Next, check the content of the SMB header. Add |FF|SMB% and 'TransactionNmPipe' to the signature as the next patterns.

Our final custom signature should look like as shown in the following figure.

If the attack occurs, check the logs for a log of your custom signature. This indicates the signature works correctly.

<h1 id="29103-applying-custom-signatures">29.10.3 Applying Custom Signatures</h1>

After you create your custom signature, it becomes available in the IDP service group category in the IDP > Profile > Packet Inspection screen. Custom signatures have an SID from 9000000 to 9999999.

You can activate the signature, configure what action to take when a packet matches it and if it should generate a log or alert in a profile. Then bind the profile to a zone.

![](images/1786ff9c557e53316fcda3446e120d6b6229bf5a5c28b70a641cdaeb88f02fb6.jpg)

<h1 id="29104-verifying-custom-signatures">29.10.4 Verifying Custom Signatures</h1>

You should configure the signature to create a log when an 'attack packet' matches the signature. (You may also want to configure an alert if the attack is more serious and needs more immediate attention.) After you apply the signature to a zone, you can see if it works by checking the logs (Maintenance > Logs > View Log).

All IDP signatures come under the IDP category. The Priority column shows warn for signatures that are configured to generate a log only. It shows critical for signatures that are configured to generate a log and alert. count is the number of attacks that occurred at that time. The Note column displays ACCESS FORWARD when no action is configured for the signature. It displays ACCESS DENIED if you configure the signature action to drop the packet. The destination port is the service port (NetBIOS in this case) that the attack tries to exploit.

<h1 id="29105-snort-signatures">29.10.5 Snort Signatures</h1>

You may want to refer to open source Snort signatures when creating custom ZyWALL ones. Most Snort rules are written in a single line. Snort rules are divided into two logical sections, the rule header and the rule options as shown in the following example:

alert tcp any any -> 192.168.1.0/24 111 (content:"|00 01 a5|"; msg:"mountd access");

The text up to the first parenthesis is the rule header and the section enclosed in parenthesis contains the rule options. The words before the colons in the rule options section are the option keywords.

The rule header contains the rule's:

Action   
Protocol   
- Source and destination IP addresses and netmasks   
- Source and destination ports information.

The rule option section contains alert messages and information on which parts of the packet should be inspected to determine if the rule action should be taken.

These are some equivalent Snort terms in the ZyWALL.

Not all Snort functionality is supported in the ZyWALL.

This chapter introduces ADP (Anomaly Detection and Prevention), anomaly profiles and binding an ADP profile to a traffic direction. See Section 5.4.16 on page 120 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="301-introduction-to-adp">30.1 Introduction to ADP</h1>

An ADP system can detect malicious or suspicious packets and respond instantaneously. It can detect:

- Anomalies based on violations of protocol standards (RFCs – Requests for Comments)   
- Abnormal flows such as port scans.

<h1 id="3011-host-intrusions">30.1.1 Host Intrusions</h1>

The goal of host-based intrusions is to infiltrate files on an individual computer or server in with the goal of accessing confidential information or destroying information on a computer.

You must install a host ADP directly on the system being protected. It works closely with the operating system, monitoring and intercepting system calls to the kernel or APIs in order to prevent attacks as well as log them.

Disadvantages of host ADPs are that you have to install them on each device (that you want to protect) in your network and due to the necessarily tight integration with the host operating system, future operating system upgrades could cause problems.

<h1 id="3012-network-intrusions">30.1.2 Network Intrusions</h1>

Network-based intrusions have the goal of bringing down a network or networks by attacking computer(s), switch(es), router(s) or modem(s). If a LAN switch is compromised for example, then the whole LAN is compromised. Host-based intrusions may be used to cause network-based intrusions when the goal of the host virus is to propagate attacks on the network, or attack computer/server operating system vulnerabilities with the goal of bringing down the computer/server. Typical "network-based intrusions" are SQL slammer, Blaster, Nimda MyDoom etc.

<h1 id="3013-adp-on-the-zywall">30.1.3 ADP on the ZyWALL</h1>

ADP on the ZyWALL protects against network-based intrusions. See Section 30.8 on page 450 and Section 30.9 on page 456 for more on the kinds of attacks that the ZyWALL can protect against. You can also create your own custom ADP rules.

<h1 id="302-traffic-directions-and-profiles">30.2 Traffic Directions and Profiles</h1>

A zone is a combination of ZyWALL interfaces and VPN connections for security. See the zone chapter for details on zones and the interfaces chapter for details on interfaces. Traffic direction is defined by the zone the traffic is coming from and the zone the traffic is going to.

An anomaly profile is a set of ADP rules with configured activation, log and action settings. The ZyWALL comes with default profiles that you can bind to traffic directions. For example, by default, the default LAN_ADP profile is bound to any traffic going to the LAN zone. You could use this to protect your LAN computers.

You can also create your own ADP profiles from base profiles. See Table 141 on page 449 for details on base profiles.

![](images/282367219c38c44c1336cf615078bd2cc593cf6782aff0dfb37af90fbf7df126.jpg)

You can only bind one profile to one traffic direction.

<h1 id="305-introducing-adp-profiles">30.5 Introducing ADP Profiles</h1>

An ADP profile is a set of traffic anomaly rules and protocol anomaly rules.

- Traffic anomaly rules look for abnormal behavior or events such as port scanning, sweeping or network flooding. It operates at OSI layer-2 and layer-3. Traffic anomaly rules may be updated when you upload new firmware.   
- Protocol anomaly rules check for protocol compliance against the relevant RFC (Request For Comments). Protocol anomaly detection includes HTTP Inspection, TCP Decoder, UDP Decoder and ICMP Decoder. Protocol anomaly rules may be updated when you upload new firmware.

Anomaly detection is in general effective against abnormal behavior while packet inspection signatures are created for known attacks (see Chapter 29 on page 417 for information on packet inspection).

<h1 id="3051-base-profiles">30.5.1 Base Profiles</h1>

The ZyWALL comes with several base profiles. You use base profiles to create new profiles.

![](images/1a86ab681dbd9c5d9fb96740c67744a3b3a1bb62ff27724e8b04ca1a1d07cd60.jpg)

<h1 id="307-creating-new-profiles">30.7 Creating New Profiles</h1>

You may want to create a new profile if not all rules in a base profile are applicable to your network. In this case you should disable non-applicable rules so as to improve ZyWALL ADP processing efficiency.

You may also find that certain rules are triggering too many false positives or false negatives. A false positive is when valid traffic is flagged as an attack. A false negative is when invalid traffic is wrongly allowed to pass through the ZyWALL. As each network is different, false positives and false negatives are common on initial ADP deployment.

You could create a new 'monitor profile' that creates logs but all actions are disabled. Observe the logs over time and try to eliminate the causes of the false alarms. When you're satisfied that they have been reduced to an acceptable level, you could then create an 'inline profile' whereby you configure appropriate actions to be taken when a packet matches a rule.

<h1 id="3071-procedure-to-create-a-new-profile">30.7.1 Procedure To Create a New Profile</h1>

To create a new profile:

1 Click the Add icon in the Anti-X > ADP > Profile screen to display a pop-up screen allowing you to choose a base profile.   
2 Select a base profile (see Table 141 on page 449) and then click OK to go to the profile details screen.

4 Enable or disable individual rules   
5 Edit the default log options and actions.

If you made changes to other screens belonging to this profile, make sure you have clicked OK or Save to save the changes before selecting the Traffic Anomaly tab.

<h1 id="3081-port-scanning">30.8.1 Port Scanning</h1>

An attacker scans device(s) to determine what types of network protocols or services a device supports. One of the most common port scanning tools in use today is Nmap.

Many connection attempts to different ports (services) may indicate a port scan. These are some port scan types:

- TCP Portscan   
UDP Portscan   
IP Portscan

An IP port scan searches not only for TCP, UDP and ICMP protocols in use by the remote computer, but also additional IP protocols such as EGP (Exterior Gateway Protocol) or IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol). Determining these additional protocols can help reveal if the destination device is a workstation, a printer, or a router.

<h1 id="30811-decoy-port-scans">30.8.1.1 Decoy Port Scans</h1>

Decoy port scans are scans where the attacker has spoofed the source address. These are some decoy scan types:

- TCP Decoy Portscan   
UDP Decoy Portscan   
- IP Decoy Portscan

<h1 id="30812-distributed-port-scans">30.8.1.2 Distributed Port Scans</h1>

Distributed port scans are many-to-one port scans. Distributed port scans occur when multiple hosts query one host for open services. This may be used to evade intrusion detection. These are distributed port scan types:

- TCP Distributed Portscan   
UDP Distributed Portscan   
- IP Distributed Portscan

<h1 id="30813-port-sweeps">30.8.1.3 Port Sweeps</h1>

Many different connection attempts to the same port (service) may indicate a port sweep, that is, they are one-to-many port scans. One host scans a single port on multiple hosts. This may occur when a new exploit comes out and the attacker is looking for a specific service. These are some port sweep types:

TCP Portsweep   
UDP Portsweep   
- IP Portsweep   
ICMP Portsweep

<h1 id="30814-filtered-port-scans">30.8.1.4 Filtered Port Scans</h1>

A filtered port scan may indicate that there were no network errors (ICMP unreachables or TCP RSTs) or responses on closed ports have been suppressed. Active network devices, such as NAT routers, may trigger these alerts if they send out many connection attempts within a very small amount of time. These are some filtered port scan examples.

<h1 id="3082-flood-detection">30.8.2 Flood Detection</h1>

Flood attacks saturate a network with useless data, use up all available bandwidth, and therefore make communications in the network impossible.

<h1 id="30821-icmp-flood-attack">30.8.2.1 ICMP Flood Attack</h1>

An ICMP flood is broadcasting many pings or UDP packets so that so much data is sent to the system, that it slows it down or locks it up.

<h1 id="30822-smurf">30.8.2.2 Smurf</h1>

A smurf attacker (A) floods a router (B) with Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request packets (pings) with the destination IP address of each packet as the broadcast address of the network. The router will broadcast the ICMP echo request packet to all hosts on the network. If there are numerous hosts, this will create a large amount of ICMP echo request and response traffic.

If an attacker (A) spoofs the source IP address of the ICMP echo request packet, the resulting ICMP traffic will not only saturate the receiving network (B), but the network of the spoofed source IP address (C).

Figure 342 Smurf Attack

<h1 id="30823-tcp-syn-flood-attack">30.8.2.3 TCP SYN Flood Attack</h1>

Usually a client starts a session by sending a SYN (synchronize) packet to a server. The receiver returns an ACK (acknowledgment) packet and its own SYN, and then the initiator responds with an ACK (acknowledgment). After this handshake, a connection is established.

![](images/b1448daf5438148529d76a62900eb9f3bf2ff474f74cf091dec43e8a81f7fbfe.jpg)  
Figure 343 TCP Three-Way Handshake

A SYN flood attack is when an attacker sends a series of SYN packets. Each packet causes the receiver to reply with a SYN-ACK response. The receiver then waits for the ACK that follows the SYN-ACK, and stores all outstanding SYN-ACK responses on a backlog queue. SYN-ACKs are only moved off the queue when an ACK comes back or when an internal timer ends the three-way handshake. Once the queue is full, the system will ignore all incoming SYN requests, making the system unavailable for other users.

![](images/8212248e316bec1c9b3bd4c77e0b470d7a00dc379ea0a6068c3f74010c18c786.jpg)  
Figure 344 SYN Flood

<h1 id="30824-land-attack">30.8.2.4 LAND Attack</h1>

In a LAND attack, hackers flood SYN packets into a network with a spoofed source IP address of the network itself. This makes it appear as if the computers in the network sent the packets to themselves, so the network is unavailable while they try to respond to themselves.

<h1 id="30825-udp-flood-attack">30.8.2.5 UDP Flood Attack</h1>

UDP is a connection-less protocol and it does not require any connection setup procedure to transfer data. A UDP flood attack is possible when an attacker sends a UDP packet to a random port on the victim system. When the victim system receives a UDP packet, it will determine what application is waiting on the destination port. When it realizes that there is no application that is waiting on the port, it will generate an ICMP packet of destination unreachable to the forged source address. If enough UDP packets are delivered to ports on victim, the system will go down.

<h1 id="309-profiles-protocol-anomaly">30.9 Profiles: Protocol Anomaly</h1>

Protocol anomaly is the third screen in an ADP profile. Protocol anomaly (PA) rules check for protocol compliance against the relevant RFC (Request for Comments).

Protocol anomaly detection includes HTTP Inspection, TCP Decoder, UDP Decoder and ICMP Decoder where each category reflects the packet type inspected.

Protocol anomaly rules may be updated when you upload new firmware.

<h1 id="3091-http-inspection-and-tcpudpicmp-decoders">30.9.1 HTTP Inspection and TCP/UDP/ICMP Decoders</h1>

The following table gives some information on the HTTP inspection, TCP decoder, UDP decoder and ICMP decoder ZyWALL protocol anomaly rules.

Table 144 HTTP Inspection and TCP/UDP/ICMP Decoders   

<table><tr><td>LABEL</td><td>DESCRIPTION</td></tr><tr><td>HTTP Inspection</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>APACHE-WHITESPACE ATTACK</td><td>This rule deals with non-RFC standard of tab for a space delimiter. Apache uses this, so if you have an Apache server, you need to enable this option.</td></tr><tr><td>ASCII-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This rule can detect attacks where malicious attackers use ASCII-encoding to encode attack strings. Attackers may use this method to bypass system parameter checks in order to get information or privileges from a web server.</td></tr><tr><td>BARE-BYTE-UNICODING-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>Bare byte encoding uses non-ASCII characters as valid values in decoding UTF-8 values. This is NOT in the HTTP standard, as all non-ASCII values have to be encoded with a%. Bare byte encoding allows the user to emulate an IIS server and interpret non-standard encodings correctly.</td></tr><tr><td>BASE36-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This is a rule to decode base36-encoded characters. This rule can detect attacks where malicious attackers use base36-encoding to encode attack strings. Attackers may use this method to bypass system parameter checks in order to get information or privileges from a web server.</td></tr><tr><td>DIRECTORY-TRVERSAL ATTACK</td><td>This rule normalizes directory traversals and self-referential directories. So, "/abc/this_is_not_a_real_dir/../xyz" get normalized to "/abc/xyz". Also, "/abc/../xyz" gets normalized to "/abc/xyz". If a user wants to configure an alert, then specify "yes", otherwise "no". This alert may give false positives since some web sites refer to files using directory traversals.</td></tr><tr><td>DOUBLE-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This rule is IIS specific. IIS does two passes through the request URI, doing decodes in each one. In the first pass, IIS encoding (UTF-8 unicode, ASCII, bare byte, and %u) is done. In the second pass ASCII, bare byte, and %u encodings are done.</td></tr><tr><td>IIS-BACKSLASH-EVASION ATTACK</td><td>This is an IIS emulation rule that normalizes backslashes to slashes. Therefore, a request-URI of "/abc\xyz" gets normalized to "/abc/xyz".</td></tr><tr><td>IIS-UNICODE-CODEPOINT-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This rule can detect attacks which send attack strings containing non-ASCII characters encoded by IIS Unicode. IIS Unicode encoding references the unicode.map file. Attackers may use this method to bypass system parameter checks in order to get information or privileges from a web server.</td></tr><tr><td>MULTI-SLASH-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This rule normalizes multiple slashes in a row, so something like: "abc/||||///xyz" get normalized to "abc/xyz".</td></tr><tr><td>NON-RFC-DEFINED-CHAR ATTACK</td><td>This rule lets you receive a log or alert if certain non-RFC characters are used in a request URI. For instance, you may want to know if there are NULL bytes in the request-URI.</td></tr><tr><td>NON-RFC-HTTP-DELIMITER ATTACK</td><td>This is when a newline "\n" character is detected as a delimiter. This is non-standard but is accepted by both Apache and IIS web servers.</td></tr><tr><td>OVERSIZE-CHUNK-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This rule is an anomaly detector for abnormally large chunk sizes. This picks up the apache chunk encoding exploits and may also be triggered on HTTP tunneling that uses chunk encoding.</td></tr><tr><td>OVERSIZE-REQUEST-URI-DIRECTORY ATTACK</td><td>This rule takes a non-zero positive integer as an argument. The argument specifies the max character directory length for URL directory. If a URL directory is larger than this argument size, an alert is generated. A good argument value is 300 characters. This should limit the alerts to IDS evasion type attacks, like whisker.</td></tr><tr><td>SELF-DIRECTORY-TRAVERSAL ATTACK</td><td>This rule normalizes self-referential directories. So, "/abc/../xyz" gets normalized to "/abc/xyz".</td></tr><tr><td>U-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>This rule emulates the IIS %u encoding scheme. The %u encoding scheme starts with a %u followed by 4 characters, like %uXXXX. The XXXX is a hex encoded value that correlates to an IIS unicode codepoint. This is an ASCII value. An ASCII character is encoded like, %u002f = /, %u002e = , etc.</td></tr><tr><td>UTF-8-ENCODING ATTACK</td><td>The UTF-8 decode rule decodes standard UTF-8 unicode sequences that are in the URI. This abides by the unicode standard and only uses % encoding. Apache uses this standard, so for any Apache servers, make sure you have this option turned on. When this rule is enabled, ASCII decoding is also enabled to enforce correct functioning.</td></tr><tr><td>WEBROOT-DIRECTORY-TRAVERSAL ATTACK</td><td>This is when a directory traversal traverses past the web server root directory. This generates much fewer false positives than the directory option, because it doesn't alert on directory traversals that stay within the web server directory structure. It only alerts when the directory traversals go past the web server root directory, which is associated with certain web attacks.</td></tr><tr><td>TCP Decoder</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>BAD-LENGTH-OPTIONS ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent where the TCP option length field is not the same as what it actually is or is 0. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>EXPERIMENTAL-OPTIONS ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent which contains non-RFC-complaint options. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>OBSOLETE-OPTIONS ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent which contains obsolete RFC options.</td></tr><tr><td>OVERSIZE-OFFSET ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent where the TCP data offset is larger than the payload.</td></tr><tr><td>TRUNCATED-OPTIONS ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent which doesn't have enough data to read. This could mean the packet was truncated.</td></tr><tr><td>TTCP DETECTED ATTACK</td><td>T/TCP provides a way of bypassing the standard three-way handshake found in TCP, thus speeding up transactions. However, this could lead to unauthorized access to the system by spoofing connections.</td></tr><tr><td>UNDERSIZE-LEN ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent which has a TCP datagram length of less than 20 bytes. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>UNDERSIZE-OFFSET ATTACK</td><td>This is when a TCP packet is sent which has a TCP header length of less than 20 bytes. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>UDP Decoder</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>OVERSIZE-LEN ATTACK</td><td>This is when a UDP packet is sent which has a UDP length field of greater than the actual packet length. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>TRUNCATED-HEADER ATTACK</td><td>This is when a UDP packet is sent which has a UDP datagram length of less the UDP header length. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>UNDERSIZE-LEN ATTACK</td><td>This is when a UDP packet is sent which has a UDP length field of less than 8 bytes. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>ICMP Decoder</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>TRUNCATED-ADDRESS-HEADER ATTACK</td><td>This is when an ICMP packet is sent which has an ICMP datagram length of less than the ICMP address header length. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>TRUNCATED-HEADER ATTACK</td><td>This is when an ICMP packet is sent which has an ICMP datagram length of less than the ICMP header length. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr><tr><td>TRUNCATED-TIMESTAMP-HEADER ATTACK</td><td>This is when an ICMP packet is sent which has an ICMP datagram length of less than the ICMP Time Stamp header length. This may cause some applications to crash.</td></tr></table>

<h1 id="content-filter-screens">Content Filter Screens</h1>

This chapter covers how to use the content filter feature to control web access. See Section 5.4.17 on page 120 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="311-content-filter-overview">31.1 Content Filter Overview</h1>

Content filter allows you to block certain web features, such as cookies, and/or block access to specific web sites. It can also block access to specific categories of web site content. You can create different content filter policies for different addresses, schedules, users or groups and content filter profiles. For example, you can configure one policy that blocks John Doe's access to arts and entertainment web pages during the workday and another policy that lets him access them after work.

<h1 id="3111-content-filter-policies">31.1.1 Content Filter Policies</h1>

A content filter policy allows you to do the following.

- Use schedule objects to define when to apply a content filter profile.   
- Use address and/or user/group objects to define to whose web access to apply the content filter profile.   
- Apply a content filter profile that you have custom-tailored.

<h1 id="3112-content-filter-profiles">31.1.2 Content Filter Profiles</h1>

A content filter profile conveniently stores your custom settings for the following features.

<h1 id="31121-category-based-blocking">31.1.2.1 Category-based Blocking</h1>

The ZyWALL can block access to particular categories of web site content, such as pornography or racial intolerance.

<h1 id="31122-restrict-web-features">31.1.2.2 Restrict Web Features</h1>

The ZyWALL can disable web proxies and block web features such as ActiveX controls, Java applets and cookies.

<h1 id="31123-customize-web-site-access">31.1.2.3 Customize Web Site Access</h1>

You can specify URLs to which the ZyWALL blocks access. You can alternatively block access to all URLs except ones that you specify. You can also have the ZyWALL block access to URLs that contain particular keywords.

<h1 id="3113-content-filter-configuration-guidelines">31.1.3 Content Filter Configuration Guidelines</h1>

You must configure an address object, a schedule object and a filtering profile before you can set up a content filter policy. When the ZyWALL receives an HTTP request, the content filter searches for a policy that matches the source address and time (schedule). The content filter checks the policies in order (based on the policy numbers). When a matching policy is found, the content filter allows or blocks the request depending on the settings of the filtering profile specified by the policy. Some requests may not match any policy. The ZyWALL allows the request if the default policy is not set to block. The ZyWALL blocks the request if the default policy is set to block.

<h1 id="312-content-filter-general-screen">31.2 Content Filter General Screen</h1>

<h1 id="315-external-web-filtering-service">31.5 External Web Filtering Service</h1>

When you register for and enable the external web filtering service, your ZyWALL accesses an external database that has millions of web sites categorized based on content. You can have the ZyWALL block, block and/or log access to web sites based on these categories. The content filter lookup process is described below.

![](images/30fa248859da890512bd0fb7d3bf69453a5efdf963814307e3a5af75120eb272.jpg)  
Figure 350 Content Filter Lookup Procedure

1 A computer behind the ZyWALL tries to access a web site.   
2 The ZyWALL looks up the web site in its cache. If an attempt to access the web site was made in the past, a record of that web site's category will be in the ZyWALL's cache. The ZyWALL blocks, blocks and logs or just logs the request based on your configuration.   
3 Use the Content Filter Cache screen to configure how long a web site address remains in the cache as well as view those web site addresses (see Section 31.9 on page 480). All of the web site address records are also cleared from the local cache when the ZyWALL restarts.   
4 If the ZyWALL has no record of the web site, it queries the external content filter database and simultaneously sends the request to the web server.   
5 The external content filter server sends the category information back to the ZyWALL, which then blocks and/or logs access to the web site based on the settings in the content filter profile. The web site's address and category are then stored in the ZyWALL's content filter cache.

<h1 id="318-keyword-blocking-url-checking">31.8 Keyword Blocking URL Checking</h1>

The ZyWALL checks the URL's domain name (or IP address) and file path separately when performing keyword blocking.

The URL's 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 ZyWALL checks the URL's 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 ZyWALL 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".

<h1 id="319-content-filter-cache-screen">31.9 Content Filter Cache Screen</h1>

Click Anti-X > Content Filter > Cache to display the Content Filter Cache screen. Use this screen to view and configure your ZyWALL's URL caching. You can also configure how long a categorized web site address remains in the cache as well as view those web site addresses to which access has been allowed or blocked based on the responses from the external content filtering server. The ZyWALL only queries the external content filtering database for sites not found in the cache.

You can remove individual entries from the cache. When you do this, the ZyWALL queries the external content filtering database the next time someone tries to access that web site. This allows you to check whether a web site's category has been changed.

Please see Section 32.2 on page 488 for how to submit a web site that has been incorrectly categorized.

<h1 id="331-virtual-router-redundancy-protocol-vrrp-overview">33.1 Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) Overview</h1>

Every computer on a network may send packets to a default gateway, which can become a single point of failure. Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) allows you to create redundant backup gateways to ensure that the default gateway is always available.

![](images/73f4eab5f41440f9ccdd1647321bc545345f76edc50fa469f6f486d69505e397.jpg)

The ZyWALL runs VRRP v2. You can only set up device HA with other ZyWALLs of the same model running the same firmware version.

In VRRP, a virtual router represents a number of routers associated with one IP address, the IP address of the default gateway. Each virtual router is identified by a unique 8-bit identification number called a Virtual Router ID (VR ID). In the example below, Router A and Router B are part of virtual router 10 with IP address 192.168.10.254.

![](images/e23a3754e2b693355e2320b94f09c4b243c5e7d32dcc4fb3fb557a3fa8af4e57.jpg)  
Figure 363 Example: VRRP, Normal Operation

The VR ID is not shown. In normal operation, Router A is the master router. It has the same IP address as the default gateway and forwards traffic for the network. Router B is a backup router. It is using its management IP address 192.168.10.112. Router A sends regular messages to Router B to letRouter B know thatRouter A is available. The time interval between these messages is called the advertisement interval.

![](images/5aab1185f3562f4432cecdeb8333b4ee18b30a6b5944ad28949aad02f05cf46e.jpg)

Every router in a virtual router must use the same advertisement interval.

If Router A becomes unavailable, it stops sending messages to Router B. Router B detects this and assumes the role of the master router. This is illustrated below.

![](images/34bb1606836f2bd1072d50266a7ee84269d209292d9a6d5bccce6ff35d4cde2c.jpg)  
Figure 364 Example: VRRP, Master Becomes Unavailable

Router B is now using the IP address of the default gateway, and it is forwarding packets for the network. The loss of Router A has no effect on the network.

If there is more than one backup router, the backup router with the highest priority becomes the master router. The other backup routers remain backup routers.

If Router_A becomes available again, one of two things can happen, depending on the settings inRouterA.

1 Router A may preempt Router B and become the master router again. In this case, the network returns to the state shown in Figure 363 on page 493.   
2 Router A returns to the network, but Router B remains the master router. This is illustrated below.

Figure 365 Example: VRRP, No Preempt

In this case, Router A becomes a backup router, and it uses its Manage IP, 192.168.10.111. Router B remains the master router until it becomes unavailable.

<h1 id="3311-additional-vrrp-notes">33.1.1 Additional VRRP Notes</h1>

- It is possible to set up two virtual routers so that they back up each other.   
VRRP uses IP protocol 112.

<h1 id="332-vrrp-group-overview">33.2 VRRP Group Overview</h1>

In the ZyWALL, you should create a VRRP group to add one of its interfaces to a virtual router. You can add any Ethernet or VLAN interface with a static IP address. You do not configure VRRP groups for virtual interfaces.

![](images/7a52d51e3e3ef055cd81834dd33a7fac6492ca40bfc724ad377e765a9afdb889.jpg)

You can only use interfaces that have static IP addresses.

You can only enable one VRRP group for each interface, and you can only have one active VRRP group for each virtual router.

![](images/455586048c9bba926b2263242ddead3aeeda27fa14c899aad0dd3989f3e95678.jpg)

If you create a VRRP group for an Ethernet interface that has a VLAN interface configured on it, make sure you create a separate VRRP group for the VLAN interface. This will avoid an IP conflict if the backup ZyWALL takes over for the master.

You must set up a static IP address for the interface first, and this IP address should be the IP address of the virtual router, not the management IP address. The management IP address is assigned in the VRRP group. When the ZyWALL is the master router, the interface uses its IP address, the IP address of the virtual router. If the ZyWALL is a backup router, the interface uses its management IP address. You can look at the current IP address of the interface in the Status screen.

![](images/43c7643d1330b41055d43a65bec8fd8efe958ccb2dd73d00c0e073ead60555f7.jpg)

You can only have one active VRRP group for each interface, and you can only have one active VRRP group for each virtual router (VR ID).

If there is a PPPoE/PPTP interface on top of an interface in a VRRP group, the PPPoE/PPTP interface cannot connect to the ISP until the interface becomes the master in the virtual router.

At the time of writing, the advertisement interval is fixed at one second.

You can also set up authentication for a VRRP group. If you select AH MD5 authentication, the VRRP group uses IP protocol 51 (AH), instead of IP protocol 112 (VRRP).

<h1 id="3321-link-monitoring-and-remote-management">33.2.1 Link Monitoring and Remote Management</h1>

With link monitoring enabled, a backup ZyWALL that takes over for an unavailable master ZyWALL takes over all of the master ZyWALL's static IP addresses. This way the backup ZyWALL takes over all of the master ZyWALL's functions. However, this also means you can no longer access the original master ZyWALL through one of its static IP addresses (because the backup ZyWALL now uses this address). Do one of the following to still be able to access the original master ZyWALL (assuming it is still functioning).

- Use a DHCP client interface. The DHCP server assigns the backup ZyWALL an IP address that is different from the IP address assigned to the master ZyWALL. So you can still access the original master ZyWALL through its DHCP assigned IP address. You will need some way to know the dynamic IP address assigned to the master ZyWALL's interface. One way is to set the master ZyWALL to use DDNS. Or, if you have access to the DHCP server, you can check it to see what IP address it assigned to the master ZyWALL.   
- Use a static IP address on one of the master ZyWALL's interfaces without adding that interface to any VRRP group. Also leave the corresponding port on the backup ZyWALL unconnected. This way the original master ZyWALL still uses the static IP address after the backup ZyWALL takes over for it.   
- Connect an external serial modem to the AUXport and configure dial-in management.

<h1 id="336-synchronization-overview">33.6 Synchronization Overview</h1>

In a virtual router, backup routers do not automatically get configuration updates from the master router. In this case, the master ZyWALL can send these updates to backup ZyWALLs. This is called synchronization.

During synchronization, the master ZyWALL sends the following information to the backup ZyWALL.

- Startup configuration file (startup-config.conf)   
- AV signatures   
IDP and application patrol signatures   
- System protect signatures   
- Certificates (My Certificates, and Trusted Certificates)

Synchronization does not change the VRRP groups or synchronization settings in the backup ZyWALL, however.

Synchronization affects the entire device configuration. You can only configure one set of settings for synchronization, regardless of how many VRRP groups you might configure. The ZyWALL uses Secure FTP (on a port number you can change) to synchronize, but it is still recommended that the backup ZyWALL synchronize with a master ZyWALL on a secure network.

Synchronization can be either done manually or scheduled regularly, and it is initiated by the backup ZyWALL. The following restrictions apply.

- The backup ZyWALL must have at least one active VRRP group.   
- The backup ZyWALL cannot be the master in any active VRRP group. This refers to the actual role at the time of synchronization, not the Role setting in the VRRP group.

During synchronization, the backup ZyWALL checks to see if the incoming configuration is different from the existing configuration on the backup. If the incoming configuration is different, the backup ZyWALL applies the entire configuration. The incoming configuration is not applied if it is the same as the existing configuration on the backup.

![](images/967a553976070993547fb53d3fa4219681fe70533abfe688274ffa921f2785d9.jpg)

The backup ZyWALL is not available while it applies the new configuration. This usually takes two or three minutes but can take longer depending on the configuration complexity.

<h1 id="3361-synchronization-and-subscription-services">33.6.1 Synchronization and Subscription Services</h1>

The backup ZyWALL must have its own (separate) licenses for services like IDP/AppPatrol, Anti-Virus, Content Filtering, and SSL VPN.

Backup ZyWALLs can only get updates for services to which they have subscribed. For example, if a backup ZyWALL is subscribed to IDP/AppPatrol, but not Anti-Virus, it gets IDP/AppPatrol updates from the master ZyWALL, but not Anti-Virus updates. It is highly recommended that you subscribe the backup ZyWALL to the same services as you subscribe the master ZyWALL.

![](images/37f1d5ad5a340d81f34b31294ab9a6cfa7b58a4eccaf6b74256be896863e3d1e.jpg)

You must subscribe to services on the backup ZyWALL before synchronizing it with the master ZyWALL.

<h1 id="3362-synchronize-screen">33.6.2 Synchronize Screen</h1>

Use this screen if you want the ZyWALL to get or to send updated IDP signatures, and configuration information in the virtual router.

Figure 368 Network > Device HA > Synchronize

For synchronization, every ZyWALL in a virtual router should usually have the same Password, Synchronize From, and on port values. In addition, the management IP address must be in the same subnet as the interface (in other words, the virtual router). The following table describes the labels in this screen.

This chapter describes how to set up user accounts, user groups, and user settings for the ZyWALL. You can also set up rules that control when users have to log in to the ZyWALL before the ZyWALL routes traffic for them. See Section 5.5.1 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

<h1 id="341-user-account-overview">34.1 User Account Overview</h1>

A user account defines the privileges of a user logged into the ZyWALL. User accounts are used in firewall rules and application patrol, in addition to controlling access to configuration and services in the ZyWALL.

<h1 id="3411-user-types">34.1.1 User Types</h1>

These are the types of user accounts the ZyWALL uses.

The default admin account is always authenticated locally, regardless of the authentication method setting. (See Chapter 38 on page 531 for more information about authentication methods.)

<h1 id="3412-ext-user-accounts">34.1.2 Ext-User Accounts</h1>

Set up an Ext-User account if the user is authenticated by an external server and you want to set up specific policies for this user in the ZyWALL. If you do not want to set up policies for this user, you do not have to set up an Ext-User account.

Ext-User users should be authenticated by an external server, such as LDAP or RADIUS. If the ZyWALL tries to use the local database to authenticate an Ext-User, the authentication attempt always fails. (This is related to AAA servers and authentication methods, which are discussed in Chapter 38 on page 531 and Chapter 39 on page 541, respectively.)

![](images/99af47bbebc57babb852611d406b0c74002cdf1b823560e3e37bc51672adb0dd.jpg)

If the ZyWALL tries to authenticate an Ext-User using the local database, the attempt always fails.

Once an Ext-User user has been authenticated, the ZyWALL tries to get the user type (see Table 155 on page 503) from the external server. If the external server does not have the information, the ZyWALL sets the user type for this session to User.

For the rest of the user attributes, such as reauthentication time, the ZyWALL checks the following places, in order.

1 User account in the remote server.   
2 User account (Ext-User) in the ZyWALL.   
3 Default user account for LDAP users (ldap-users) or RADIUS users (radius-users) in the ZyWALL.

See Section 34.1.2.1 on page 504 for a list of attributes and how to set up the attributes in an external server.

<h1 id="34121-setting-up-user-attributes-in-an-external-server">34.1.2.1 Setting up User Attributes in an External Server</h1>

To set up user attributes, such as reauthentication time, in LDAP or RADIUS servers, use the following keywords in the user configuration file.

Table 156 LDAP/RADIUS: Keywords for User Attributes

Figure 369 LDAP Example: Keywords for User Attributes   

<table><tr><td>KEYWORD</td><td>CORRESPONDING ATTRIBUTE IN WEB CONFIGURATOR</td></tr><tr><td>type</td><td>User Type. Possible Values: admin, limited-admin, user, guest.</td></tr><tr><td>leaseTime</td><td>Lease Time. Possible Values: 1-1440 (minutes).</td></tr><tr><td>reauthTime</td><td>Reauthentication Time. Possible Values: 1-1440 (minutes).</td></tr></table>

The following examples show you how you might set up user attributes in LDAP and RADIUS servers.

```txt
type:admin leaseTime:99 reauthTime:199 
type=user;leaseTime=222;reauthTime=222 

34.1.2.2 Creating a Large Number of Ext-User Accounts

If you plan to create a large number of Ext-User accounts, you might use CLI commands, instead of the web configurator, to create the accounts. Extract the user names from the LDAP or RADIUS server, and create a shell script that creates the user accounts. See Chapter 45 on page 615 for more information about shell scripts.

34.1.3 User Groups

Use user groups when you want to create the same rule for several user accounts, instead of creating separate rules for each one. User groups may consist of user accounts or other user groups, but you cannot put access users and admin users in the same user group.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - User Groups - 1
Figure 370 RADIUS Example: Keywords for User Attributes

You cannot put access users and admin users in the same user group.

In addition, you cannot put the default admin account into any user group.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - User Groups - 2

You cannot put the default admin account into any user group.

The sequence of members in a user group is not important.

34.1.4 Access Users and the ZyWALL

By default, access users do not have to log in to the ZyWALL to use the network services it provides. The ZyWALL automatically routes packets for everyone. In this case, the ZyWALL does not enforce any user-aware policies, but you can still set up policies based on IP address or other criteria.

If you want to enforce user-aware policies, access users must log in to the ZyWALL first. In this case, they should go to the appropriate IP address (or domain name, if you set up DNS) to log in to the ZyWALL. (See Section 34.5 on page 513.) You can provide an incentive to do this by preventing access users from using network services until they log in.

34.1.5 Force User Authentication Policy

Instead of making users to go to the Login screen manually, you can configure the ZyWALL to display the Login screen automatically whenever it routes HTTP traffic for anyone who has not logged in yet. Then, the ZyWALL can enforce user-aware policies.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Force User Authentication Policy - 1

This works with HTTP traffic only. The ZyWALL does not force users to log in before it routes other kinds of traffic.

The ZyWALL does not automatically route the request that prompted the login, however, so users have to make this request again.

34.2 User Summary

The User screen provides a summary of all user accounts. To access this screen, login to the web configurator, and click User/Group.

Addresses

This chapter describes how to set up addresses and address groups for the ZyWALL. See Section 5.5 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

35.1 Addresses Overview

Address objects can represent a single IP address or a range of IP addresses. Address groups are composed of address objects and other address groups.

Address objects and address groups are used in dynamic routes, firewall rules,application patrol, content filtering,and VPN connection policies. For example, addresses are used to specify where content restrictions apply in content filtering. Please see the respective sections for more information about how address objects and address groups are used in each one.

Address groups are composed of address objects and address groups. The sequence of members in the address group is not important.

35.2 Address Screens

The address screens are used to create, maintain, and remove addresses. There are the types of address objects.

  • HOST - a host address is defined by an IP Address.
  • RANGE - a range address is defined by a Starting IP Address and an Ending IP Address.
  • SUBNET - a network address is defined by a Network IP address and Netmask subnet mask.

There are two different screens, the Address summary screen and the Address Add/Edit screen.

35.2.1 Address Summary

Services

Use service objects to define TCP applications, UDP applications, and ICMP messages. You can also create service groups to refer to multiple service objects in other features. See Section 5.5 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

36.1 Services Overview

See Appendix C on page 703 for a list of commonly-used services.

36.1.1 IP Protocols

IP protocols are based on the eight-bit protocol field in the IP header. This field represents the next-level protocol that is sent in this packet. This section discusses three of the most common IP protocols.

Computers use Transmission Control Protocol (TCP, IP protocol 6) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP, IP protocol 17) to exchange data with each other. TCP guarantees reliable delivery but is slower and more complex. Some uses are FTP, HTTP, SMTP, and TELNET. UDP is simpler and faster but is less reliable. Some uses are DHCP, DNS, RIP, and SNMP.

TCP creates connections between computers to exchange data. Once the connection is established, the computers exchange data. If data arrives out of sequence or is missing, TCP puts it in sequence or waits for the data to be re-transmitted. Then, the connection is terminated.

In contrast, computers use UDP to send short messages to each other. There is no guarantee that the messages arrive in sequence or that the messages arrive at all.

Both TCP and UDP use ports to identify the source and destination. Each port is a 16-bit number. Some port numbers have been standardized and are used by low-level system processes; many others have no particular meaning.

Unlike TCP and UDP, Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP, IP protocol 1) is mainly used to send error messages or to investigate problems. For example, ICMP is used to send the response if a computer cannot be reached. Another use is ping. ICMP does not guarantee delivery, but networks often treat ICMP messages differently, sometimes looking at the message itself to decide where to send it.

36.1.2 Service Objects and Service Groups

Use service objects to define IP protocols.

  • TCP applications

  • UDP applications

  • ICMP messages
  • user-defined services (for other types of IP protocols)

These objects are used in policy routes, firewall rules,and IDP profiles.

Use service groups when you want to create the same rule for several services, instead of creating separate rules for each service. Service groups may consist of services and other service groups. The sequence of members in the service group is not important.

36.2 Service Summary Screen

The Service summary screen provides a summary of all services and their definition. In addition, this screen allows you to add, edit, and remove services.

To access this screen, log in to the web configurator, and click Object > Service > Service.

Schedules

Use schedules to set up one-time and recurring schedules for policy routes, firewall rules, application patrol,and content filtering. See Section 5.5 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

37.1 Schedule Overview

The ZyWALL supports two types of schedules: one-time and recurring. One-time schedules are effective only once, while recurring schedules usually repeat. Both types of schedules are based on the current date and time in the ZyWALL. See Section 43.3 on page 576 for information about the current date and time.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Schedule Overview - 1

Schedules are based on the current date and time in the ZyWALL.

One-time schedules begin on a specific start date and time and end on a specific stop date and time. One-time schedules are useful for long holidays and vacation periods.

Recurring schedules begin at a specific start time and end at a specific stop time on selected days of the week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday). Recurring schedules always begin and end in the same day. Recurring schedules are useful for defining the workday and off-work hours.

AAA Server

This chapter introduces and shows you how to configure the ZyWALL to use external authentication servers.

38.1 AAA Server Overview

You can use an AAA (Authentication, Authorization, Accounting) server to provide access control to your network.

The following lists the types of authentication server the ZyWALL supports.

  • Local user database

The ZyWALL uses the built-in local user database to authenticate administrative users logging into the ZyWALL's web configurator or network access users logging into the network through the ZyWALL. You can also use the local user database to authenticate VPN users.

  • Directory Service (LDAP/AD)

LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)/AD (Active Directory) is a directory service that is both a directory and a protocol for controlling access to a network. The directory consists of a database specialized for fast information retrieval and filtering activities. You create and store user profile and login information on the external server.

RADIUS

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) authentication is a popular protocol used to authenticate users by means of an external or built-in RADIUS server. RADIUS authentication allows you to validate a large number of users from a central location.

38.1.1 ASAS

ASAS (Authenex Strong Authentication System) is a RADIUS server that works with the One-Time Password (OTP) feature. Purchase a ZyWALL OTP package in order to use this feature. The package contains server software and ZyWALL OTP tokens. Do the following to use OTP. See the documentation included on the ASAS' CD for details.

1 Install the ASAS server software on a computer.
2 Create user accounts on the ZyWALL and in the ASAS server.
3 Import each token's database file (located on the included CD) into the server.
4 Assign users to OTP tokens (on the ASAS server).

5 Configure the ASAS as a RADIUS server in the ZyWALL's Object > AAA Server screens.
6 Give the OTP tokens to (local or remote) users.

38.1.2 User Authentication Method

You can select to authenticate users using the local user database and/or a specified authentication server. By default, user accounts created and stored on the ZyWALL are authenticated locally.

38.2 Directory Service (AD/LDAP) Overview

LDAP/AD allows a client (the ZyWALL) to connect to a server to retrieve information from a directory. A network example is shown next.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Directory Service (AD/LDAP) Overview - 1
Figure 389 Example: Directory Service Client and Server

The following describes the user authentication procedure via an LDAP/AD server.

1 A user logs in with a user name and password pair.
2 The ZyWALL tries to bind (or log in) to the LDAP/AD server.
3 When the binding process is successful, the ZyWALL checks the user information in the directory against the user name and password pair.
4 If it matches, the user is allowed access. Otherwise, access is blocked.

38.2.1 Directory Structure

The directory entries are arranged in a hierarchical order much like a tree structure. Normally, the directory structure reflects the geographical or organizational boundaries. The following figure shows a basic directory structure branching from countries to organizations to organizational units to individuals.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Directory Structure - 1
Figure 390 Basic Directory Structure

38.2.2 Distinguished Name (DN)

A DN uniquely identifies an entry in a directory. A DN consists of attribute-value pairs separated by commas. The leftmost attribute is the Relative Distinguished Name (RDN). This provides a unique name for entries that have the same "parent DN" ("cn=domain1.com, ou=Sales, o=MyCompany" in the following examples).

cn=domain1.com, ou = Sales, o=MyCompany, c=US  
cn=domain1.com, ou = Sales, o=MyCompany, c=JP 

38.2.2.1 Base DN

A base DN specifies a directory. A base DN usually contains information such as the name of an organization, a domain name and/or country. For example, o=MyCompany, c=UK where o means organization and c means country.

38.2.2.2 Bind DN

A bind DN is used to authenticate with an LDAP/AD server. For example a bind DN of cn=zywallAdmin allows the ZyWALL to log into the LDAP/AD server using the user name of zywallAdmin. The bind DN is used in conjunction with a bind password. When a bind DN is not specified, the ZyWALL will try to log in as an anonymous user. If the bind password is incorrect, the login will fail.

38.2.3 Configuring Active Directory or LDAP Default Server Settings

38.4 RADIUS Server

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) authentication is a popular protocol used to authenticate users by means of an external server instead of (or in addition to) an internal device user database that is limited to the memory capacity of the device. In essence, RADIUS authentication allows you to validate a large number of users from a central location.

Certificates

This chapter gives background information about public-key certificates and explains how to use the Certificates screens. See Section 5.5 on page 122 for related information on these screens.

40.1 Certificates Overview

The ZyWALL can use certificates (also called digital IDs) to authenticate users. Certificates are based on public-private key pairs. A certificate contains the certificate owner's identity and public key. Certificates provide a way to exchange public keys for use in authentication.

A Certification Authority (CA) issues certificates and guarantees the identity of each certificate owner. There are commercial certification authorities like CyberTrust or VeriSign and government certification authorities. You can use the ZyWALL to generate certification requests that contain identifying information and public keys and then send the certification requests to a certification authority.

When using public-key cryptography for authentication, each host has two keys. One key is public and can be made openly available; the other key is private and must be kept secure. Public-key encryption in general works as follows.

1 Tim wants to send a private message to Jenny. Tim generates a public key pair. What is encrypted with one key can only be decrypted using the other.
2 Tim keeps the private key and makes the public key openly available.
3 Tim uses his private key to encrypt the message and sends it to Jenny.
4 Jenny receives the message and uses Tim's public key to decrypt it.
5 Additionally, Jenny uses her own private key to encrypt a message and Tim uses Jenny's public key to decrypt the message.

The ZyWALL uses certificates based on public-key cryptography to authenticate users attempting to establish a connection, not to encrypt the data that you send after establishing a connection. The method used to secure the data that you send through an established connection depends on the type of connection. For example, a VPN tunnel might use the triple DES encryption algorithm.

The certification authority uses its private key to sign certificates. Anyone can then use the certification authority's public key to verify the certificates.

A certification path is the hierarchy of certification authority certificates that validate a certificate. The ZyWALL does not trust a certificate if any certificate on its path has expired or been revoked.

Certification authorities maintain directory servers with databases of valid and revoked certificates. A directory of certificates that have been revoked before the scheduled expiration is called a CRL (Certificate Revocation List). The ZyWALL can check a peer's certificate against a directory server's list of revoked certificates. The framework of servers, software, procedures and policies that handles keys is called PKI (public-key infrastructure).

40.1.1 Advantages of Certificates

Certificates offer the following benefits.

  • The ZyWALL only has to store the certificates of the certification authorities that you decide to trust, no matter how many devices you need to authenticate.
    Key distribution is simple and very secure since you can freely distribute public keys and you never need to transmit private keys.

40.2 Self-signed Certificates

Until public-key infrastructure becomes more mature, it may not be available in some areas. You can have the ZyWALL act as a certification authority and sign its own certificates.

40.3 Factory Default Certificate

The ZyWALL generates its own unique self-signed certificate when you first turn it on. This certificate is referred to in the GUI as the factory default certificate.

40.3.1 Certificate File Formats

Any certificate that you want to import has to be in one of these file formats:

  • Binary X.509: This is an ITU-T recommendation that defines the formats for X.509 certificates.
  • PEM (Base-64) encoded X.509: This Privacy Enhanced Mail format uses 64 ASCII characters to convert a binary X.509 certificate into a printable form.
  • Binary PKCS#7: This is a standard that defines the general syntax for data (including digital signatures) that may be encrypted. A PKCS #7 file is used to transfer a public key certificate. The private key is not included. The ZyWALL currently allows the importation of a PKS#7 file that contains a single certificate.
  • PEM (Base-64) encoded PKCS#7: This Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) format uses 64 ASCII characters to convert a binary PKCS#7 certificate into a printable form.
  • Binary PKCS#12: This is a format for transferring public key and private key certificates. The private key in a PKCS #12 file is within a password-encrypted envelope. The file's password is not connected to your certificate's public or private passwords. Exporting a PKCS #12 file creates this and you must provide it decrypt the contents when you import the file into the ZyWALL.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Certificate File Formats - 1

Be careful to not convert a binary file to text during the transfer process. It is easy for this to occur since many programs use text files by default.

40.4 Certificate Configuration Screens Summary

This section summarizes how to manage certificates on the ZyWALL.

Use the My Certificate screens to generate and export self-signed certificates or certification requests and import the ZyWALL's CA-signed certificates.

Use the Trusted Certificates screens to save CA certificates and trusted remote host certificates to the ZyWALL. The ZyWALL will trust any valid certificate that you have imported as a trusted certificate. It will also trust any valid certificate signed by any of the certificates that you have imported as a trusted certificate.

40.5 Verifying a Certificate

Before you import a certificate into the ZyWALL, you should verify that you have the actual certificate. This is especially true of trusted certificates since the ZyWALL also trusts any valid certificate signed by any of the imported trusted certificates.

40.5.1 Checking the Fingerprint of a Certificate on Your Computer

A certificate's fingerprints are message digests calculated using the MD5 or SHA1 algorithms. The following procedure describes how to check a certificate's fingerprint to verify that you have the actual certificate.

1 Browse to where you have the certificate saved on your computer.
2 Make sure that the certificate has a ".cert" or ".crt" file name extension.

Click Object > Certificate > Trusted Certificates to open the Trusted Certificates screen. This screen displays a summary list of certificates that you have set the ZyWALL to accept as trusted. The ZyWALL also accepts any valid certificate signed by a certificate on this list as being trustworthy; thus you do not need to import any certificate that is signed by one of these certificates.

40.7.1 OCSP

OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) allows an application or device to check whether a certificate is valid. With OCSP the ZyWALL checks the status of individual certificates instead of downloading a Certificate Revocation List (CRL). OCSP has two main advantages over a CRL. The first is real-time status information. The second is a reduction in network traffic since the ZyWALL only gets information on the certificates that it needs to verify, not a huge list. When the ZyWALL requests certificate status information, the OCSP server returns a "expired", "current" or "unknown" response.

Get from Time ServerSelect this radio button to have the ZyWALL get the time and date from the time server you specify below. The ZyWALL requests time and date settings from the time server under the following circumstances. • When the ZyWALL starts up. • When you click Apply or Synchronize Now in this screen. • 24-hour intervals after starting up.
Time Server AddressEnter the IP address or URL of your time server. Check with your ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this information.
Synchronize NowClick this button to have the ZyWALL get the time and date from a time server (see the Time Server Address field). This also saves your changes (except the daylight saving settings).
Time Zone Setup
Time ZoneChoose the time zone of your location. This will set the time difference between your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Enable Daylight SavingDaylight saving is a period from late spring to early fall when many countries set their clocks ahead of normal local time by one hour to give more daytime light in the evening. Select this option if you use Daylight Saving Time.
Start DateConfigure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you selected Enable Daylight Saving. The at field uses the 24 hour format. Here are a couple of examples: Daylight Saving Time starts in most parts of the United States on the second Sunday of March. Each time zone in the United States starts using Daylight Saving Time at 2 A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select Second, Sunday, March and type 2 in the at field. Daylight Saving Time starts in the European Union on the last Sunday of March. All of the time zones in the European Union start using Daylight Saving Time at the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would select Last, Sunday, March. The time you type in the at field depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 2 because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1).
End DateConfigure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time ends if you selected Enable Daylight Saving. The at field uses the 24 hour format. Here are a couple of examples:Daylight Saving Time ends in the United States on the first Sunday of November. Each time zone in the United States stops using Daylight Saving Time at 2 A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select First, Sunday, November and type 2 in the at field.Daylight Saving Time ends in the European Union on the last Sunday of October. All of the time zones in the European Union stop using Daylight Saving Time at the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would select Last, Sunday, October. The time you type in the at field depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 2 because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1).

43.3.1 Pre-defined NTP Time Servers List

When you turn on the ZyWALL for the first time, the date and time start at 2003-01-01 00:00:00. The ZyWALL then attempts to synchronize with one of the following pre-defined list of Network Time Protocol (NTP) time servers.

The ZyWALL continues to use the following pre-defined list of NTP time servers if you do not specify a time server or it cannot synchronize with the time server you specified.

Table 198 Default Time Servers

0.pool.ntp.org
1.pool.ntp.org
2POOL.ntp.org

When the ZyWALL uses the pre-defined list of NTP time servers, it randomly selects one server and tries to synchronize with it. If the synchronization fails, then the ZyWALL goes through the rest of the list in order from the first one tried until either it is successful or all the pre-defined NTP time servers have been tried.

43.3.2 Time Server Synchronization

Click the Synchronize Now button to get the time and date from the time server you specified in the Time Server Address field.

When the Please Wait... screen appears, you may have to wait up to one minute.

43.5 DNS Overview

DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it.

43.5.1 DNS Server Address Assignment

The ZyWALL can get the DNS server addresses in the following ways.

  • 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 ZyWALL's WAN IP address), set the DNS server fields to get the DNS server address from the ISP.
  • You can manually enter the IP addresses of other DNS servers.

43.5.2 DNS Servers

Use the DNS screen to configure the ZyWALL to use a DNS server to resolve domain names for ZyWALL system features like VPN, DDNS and the time server. You can also configure the ZyWALL to accept or discard DNS queries. Use the Network > Interface screens to configure the DNS server information that the ZyWALL sends to the specified DHCP client devices.

43.5.3 Configuring DNS

Click System > DNS to change your ZyWALL's DNS settings.

43.5.4 Address Record

An address record contains the mapping of a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) to an IP address. An FQDN consists of a host and domain name. For example, www.zyxel.com is a fully qualified domain name, where “www” is the host, “zyxel” is the second-level domain, and “com” is the top level domain. mail.myZyXEL.com.tw is also a FQDN, where “mail” is the host, “myZyXEL” is the third-level domain, “com” is the second-level domain, and “tw” is the top level domain.

The ZyWALL allows you to configure address records about the ZyWALL itself or another device. This way you can keep a record of DNS names and addresses that people on your network may use frequently. If the ZyWALL receives a DNS query for an FQDN for which the ZyWALL has an address record, the ZyWALL can send the IP address in a DNS response without having to query a DNS name server.

43.5.5 PTR Record

A PTR (pointer) record is also called a reverse record or a reverse lookup record. It is a mapping of an IP address to a domain name.

43.5.6 Adding an Address/PTR Record

Service Control

This chapter covers controlling access to the ZyWALL. See Chapter 43 on page 575 for the general system configuration screens.

44.1 Service Control Overview

Use this chapter to control which services can access the ZyWALL.

The following figure shows secure and insecure management of the ZyWALL coming in from the WAN. HTTPS and SSH access are secure. HTTP, Telnet, and dial-in management access are not secure.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Service Control Overview - 1
Figure 426 Secure and Insecure Service Access From the WAN

See Section 5.6.1 on page 123 for related information on these screens.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Service Control Overview - 2

To allow the ZyWALL to be accessed from a specified computer using a service, make sure you do not have a service control rule or to-ZyWALL firewall rule to block that traffic.

See Section 19.2.1.2 on page 279 for more on To-ZyWALL firewall rules.

To stop a service from accessing the ZyWALL, clear Enable in the corresponding service screen.

44.1.1 Service Access Limitations

A service cannot be used to access the ZyWALL when:

1 You have disabled that service in the corresponding screen.
2 The allowed IP address (address object) in the Service Control table does not match the client IP address (the ZyWALL disallows the session).
3 The IP address (address object) in the Service Control table is not in the allowed zone or the action is set to Deny.
4 There is a firewall rule that blocks it.

44.1.2 System Timeout

There is a lease timeout for administrators. The ZyWALL automatically logs you out if the management session remains idle for longer than this timeout period. The management session does not time out when a statistics screen is polling.

Each user is also forced to log in the ZyWALL for authentication again when the reauthentication time expires.

You can change the timeout settings in the User/Group screens.

44.2 HTTPS

You can set the ZyWALL to use HTTP or HTTPS (HTTPS adds security) for web configurator sessions. Specify which zones allow web configurator access and from which IP address the access can come.

HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer, or HTTP over SSL) is a web protocol that encrypts and decrypts web pages. Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is an application-level protocol that enables secure transactions of data by ensuring confidentiality (an unauthorized party cannot read the transferred data), authentication (one party can identify the other party) and data integrity (you know if data has been changed).

It relies upon certificates, public keys, and private keys (see Chapter 40 on page 545 for more information).

HTTPS on the ZyWALL is used so that you can securely access the ZyWALL using the web configurator. The SSL protocol specifies that the HTTPS server (the ZyWALL) must always authenticate itself to the HTTPS client (the computer which requests the HTTPS connection with the ZyWALL), whereas the HTTPS client only should authenticate itself when the HTTPS server requires it to do so (select Authenticate Client Certificates in the WWW screen). Authenticate Client Certificates is optional and if selected means the HTTPS client must send the ZyWALL a certificate. You must apply for a certificate for the browser from a CA that is a trusted CA on the ZyWALL.

Please refer to the following figure.

1 HTTPS connection requests from an SSL-aware web browser go to port 443 (by default) on the ZyWALL's web server.
2 HTTP connection requests from a web browser go to port 80 (by default) on the ZyWALL's web server.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - HTTPS - 1

44.5.3 Avoiding Browser Warning Messages

The following describes the main reasons that your browser displays warnings about the ZyWALL's HTTPS server certificate and what you can do to avoid seeing the warnings.

  • The issuing certificate authority of the ZyWALL's HTTPS server certificate is not one of the browser's trusted certificate authorities. The issuing certificate authority of the ZyWALL's factory default certificate is the ZyWALL itself since the certificate is a self-signed certificate.

  • For the browser to trust a self-signed certificate, import the self-signed certificate into your operating system as a trusted certificate.

  • To have the browser trust the certificates issued by a certificate authority, import the certificate authority's certificate into your operating system as a trusted certificate. Refer to Appendix E on page 713 for details.

44.5.4 Login Screen

After you accept the certificate, the ZyWALL login screen appears. The lock displayed in the bottom of the browser status bar denotes a secure connection.

44.6 SSH

You can use SSH (Secure SHell) to securely access the ZyWALL's command line interface. Specify which zones allow SSH access and from which IP address the access can come.

SSH is a secure communication protocol that combines authentication and data encryption to provide secure encrypted communication between two hosts over an unsecured network. In the following figure, computer A on the Internet uses SSH to securely connect to the WAN port of the ZyWALL for a management session.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - SSH - 1
Figure 445 SSH Communication Over the WAN Example

44.6.1 How SSH Works

The following figure is an example of how a secure connection is established between two remote hosts using SSH v1.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - How SSH Works - 1
Figure 446 How SSH v1 Works Example

1 Host Identification

The SSH client sends a connection request to the SSH server. The server identifies itself with a host key. The client encrypts a randomly generated session key with the host key and server key and sends the result back to the server.

The client automatically saves any new server public keys. In subsequent connections, the server public key is checked against the saved version on the client computer.

2 Encryption Method

Once the identification is verified, both the client and server must agree on the type of encryption method to use.

3 Authentication and Data Transmission

After the identification is verified and data encryption activated, a secure tunnel is established between the client and the server. The client then sends its authentication information (user name and password) to the server to log in to the server.

44.6.2 SSH Implementation on the ZyWALL

Your ZyWALL supports SSH versions 1 and 2 using RSA authentication and four encryption methods (AES, 3DES, Archfour and Blowfish). The SSH server is implemented on the ZyWALL for management using port 22 (by default).

44.6.3 Requirements for Using SSH

You must install an SSH client program on a client computer (Windows or Linux operating system) that is used to connect to the ZyWALL over SSH.

44.6.4 Configuring SSH

Click System > SSH to change your ZyWALL's Secure Shell settings. Use this screen to specify from which zones SSH can be used to manage the ZyWALL. You can also specify from which IP addresses the access can come.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Configuring SSH - 1

44.10 SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol is a protocol used for exchanging management information between network devices. Your ZyWALL supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a manager station to manage and monitor the ZyWALL through the network. The ZyWALL supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1) and version two (SNMPv2c). The next figure illustrates an SNMP management operation.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - SNMP - 1
Figure 453 SNMP Management Model

An SNMP managed network consists of two main types of component: agents and a manager.

An agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (the ZyWALL). An agent translates the local management information from the managed device into a form compatible with SNMP. The manager is the console through which network administrators perform network management functions. It executes applications that control and monitor managed devices.

The managed devices contain object variables/managed objects that define each piece of information to be collected about a device. Examples of variables include such as number of packets received, node port status etc. A Management Information Base (MIB) is a collection of managed objects. SNMP allows a manager and agents to communicate for the purpose of accessing these objects.

SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol based on the manager/agent model. The manager issues a request and the agent returns responses using the following protocol operations:

  • Get - Allows the manager to retrieve an object variable from the agent.
  • GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.
  • Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent.
  • Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events.

44.10.1 Supported MIBs

The ZyWALL supports MIB II that is defined in RFC-1213 and RFC-1215. The ZyWALL also supports private MIBs (zywall.mib and zyxel-zywall-ZLD-Common.mib) to collect information about CPU and memory usage and VPN total throughput. The focus of the MIBs is to let administrators collect statistical data and monitor status and performance. You can download the ZyWALL's MIBs from www.zyxel.com.

44.10.2 SNMP Traps

The ZyWALL will send traps to the SNMP manager when any one of the following events occurs.

Table 211 SNMP Traps

OBJECT LABELOBJECT IDDESCRIPTION
Cold Start1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1This trap is sent when the ZyWALL is turned on or an agent restarts.
linkDown1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.3This trap is sent when the Ethernet link is down.
linkUp1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.4This trap is sent when the Ethernet link is up.
authenticationFailure1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.5This trap is sent when an SNMP request comes from non-authenticated hosts.

44.11 Dial-in Management

Connect an external serial modem to the AUXport to provide a management connection in case the ZyWALL's other WAN connections are down. This is like an auxiliary interface, except it is used for management connections coming into the ZyWALL instead of as a backup WAN connection.

44.11.1 a managementAT Command Strings

For regular telephone lines, the default Dial string tells the modem that the line uses tone dialing. ATDT is the command for a switch that requires tone dialing. If your switch requires pulse dialing, change the string to ATDP.

44.11.2 DTR Signal

The majority of WAN devices default to hanging up the current call when the DTR (Data Terminal Ready) signal is dropped by the DTE. When the Drop DTR When Hang Up check box is selected, the ZyWALL uses this hardware signal to force the WAN device to hang up, in addition to issuing the drop command ATH.

44.11.3 Response Strings

The response strings tell the ZyWALL the tags, or labels, immediately preceding the various call parameters sent from the serial modem. The response strings have not been standardized; please consult the documentation of your serial modem to find the correct tags.

This chapter covers how to use the ZyWALL's File Manager screens to handle the ZyWALL's configuration, firmware and shell script files.

45.1 Configuration Files and Shell Scripts Overview

The File Manager screens allow you to store multiple configuration files and shell script files.

When you apply a configuration file, the ZyWALL uses the factory default settings for any features that the configuration file does not include. Shell scripts are files of commands that you can store on the ZyWALL and run when you need them. When you run a shell script, the ZyWALL only applies the commands that it contains. Other settings do not change.

You can edit configuration files or shell scripts in a text editor and upload them to the ZyWALL. Configuration files use a .conf extension and shell scripts use a .zysh extension.

These files have the same syntax, which is also identical to the way you run CLI commands manually. An example is shown below.

While configuration files and shell scripts have the same syntax, the ZyWALL applies configuration files differently than it runs shell scripts. This is explained below.

Table 215 Configuration Files and Shell Scripts in the ZyWALL

Configuration Files (.conf)Shell Scripts (.zysh)
• Resets to default configuration. • Goes into CLI Configuration mode. • Runs the commands in the configuration file.• Goes into CLI Privilege mode. • Runs the commands in the shell script.

You have to run the example in Figure 457 on page 615 as a shell script because the first command is run in Privilege mode. If you remove the first command, you have to run the example as a configuration file because the rest of the commands are executed in Configuration mode.

45.1.1 Comments in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts

In a configuration file or shell script, use “#” or “!” as the first character of a command line to have the ZyWALL treat the line as a comment.

Your configuration files or shell scripts can use "exit" or a command line consisting of a single "!" to have the ZyWALL exit sub command mode.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Comments in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts - 1

"exit" or "!" must follow sub commands if it is to make the ZyWALL exit sub command mode.

Line 3 in the following example exits sub command mode.

interface gel  
ip address dhcp  
! 

Lines 1 and 3 in the following example are comments and line 4 exits sub command mode.

!   
interface gel   
<h1 id="this-interface-is-a-dhcp-client">this interface is a DHCP client</h1>

Lines 1 and 2 are comments. Line 5 exits sub command mode.

! this is from Joe
<h1 id="on-20060605">on 2006/06/05</h1>
interface gel
ip address dhcp
! 

45.1.2 Errors in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts

When you apply a configuration file or run a shell script, the ZyWALL processes the file line-by-line. The ZyWALL checks the first line and applies the line if no errors are detected. Then it continues with the next line. If the ZyWALL finds an error, it stops applying the configuration file or shell script and generates a log.

You can change the way a configuration file or shell script is applied. Include setenv stop-on-error off in the configuration file or shell script. The ZyWALL ignores any errors in the configuration file or shell script and applies all of the valid commands. The ZyWALL still generates a log for any errors.

45.1.3 ZyWALL Configuration File Details

You can store multiple configuration files on the ZyWALL. You can also have the ZyWALL use a different configuration file without the ZyWALL restarting.

  • When you first receive the ZyWALL, it uses the system-default.conf configuration file of default settings.
  • When you change the configuration, the ZyWALL creates a startup-config.conf file of the current configuration.
  • The ZyWALL checks the startup-config.conf file for errors when it restarts. If there is an error in the startup-config.conf file, the ZyWALL copies the startup-config.conf configuration file to the startup-config-bad.conf configuration file and tries the existing lastgood.conf configuration file.
  • When the ZyWALL reboots, if the startup-config.conf file passes the error check, the ZyWALL keeps a copy of the startup-config.conf file as the lastgood.conf configuration file for you as a back up file. If you upload and apply a configuration file with an error, you can apply lastgood.conf to return to a valid configuration.

45.1.4 Configuration File Flow at Restart

If there is not a startup-config.conf when you restart the ZyWALL (whether through a management interface or by physically turning the power off and back on), the ZyWALL uses the system-default.conf configuration file with the ZyWALL's default settings.

If there is a startup-config.conf, the ZyWALL checks it for errors and applies it. If there are no errors, the ZyWALL uses it and copies it to the lastgood.conf configuration file. If there is an error, the ZyWALL generates a log and copies the startup-config.conf configuration file to the startup-config-bad.conf configuration file and tries the existing lastgood.conf configuration file. If there isn't a lastgood.conf configuration file or it also has an error, the ZyWALL applies the system-default.conf configuration file.

You can change the way the startup-config.conf file is applied. Include the setenv-startup stop-on-error off command. The ZyWALL ignores any errors in the startup-config.conf file and applies all of the valid commands. The ZyWALL still generates a log for any errors.

45.2 Configuration File Screen

Click Maintenance > File Manager > Configuration File to open the Configuration File screen. Use the Configuration File screen to store and name configuration files. You can also download configuration files from the ZyWALL to your computer and upload configuration files from your computer to the ZyWALL.

Once your ZyWALL is configured and functioning properly, it is highly recommended that you back up your configuration file before making further configuration changes. The backup configuration file will be useful in case you need to return to your previous settings.

Click Maintenance > File Manager > Firmware Package to open the Firmware Package screen. Use the Firmware Package screen to check your current firmware version and upload firmware to the ZyWALL.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Firmware Package Screen - 1

The web configurator is the recommended method for uploading firmware. You only need to use the command line interface if you need to recover the firmware. See the CLI Reference Guide for how to determine if you need to recover the firmware and how to recover it.

Find the firmware package at www.zyxel.com in a file that (usually) uses the system model name with a .bin extension, for example, "zywall.bin".

The ZyWALL's firmware package cannot go through the ZyWALL when you enable the antivirus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option. The ZyWALL classifies the firmware package as not being able to be decompressed and deletes it. You can upload the firmware package to the ZyWALL with the option enabled, so you only need to clear the Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option while you download the firmware package. See Section 28.3.1 on page 408 for more on the anti-virus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option.

46.2 Log Settings Screens

The Log Settings screens control log messages and alerts. A log message stores the information for viewing (for example, in the View Log tab) or regular e-mailing later, and an alert is e-mailed immediately. Usually, alerts are used for events that require more serious attention, such as system errors and attacks.

The ZyWALL provides a system log and supports e-mail profiles and remote syslog servers. The system log is available on the View Log tab, the e-mail profiles are used to mail log messages to the specified destinations, and the other four logs are stored on specified syslog servers.

The Log Settings tab also controls what information is saved in each log. For the system log, you can also specify which log messages is e-mailed, where it is e-mailed, and how often it is e-mailed.

For alerts, the Log Settings tab controls which events generate alerts and where alerts are e-mailed.

The Log Settings Summary screen provides a summary of all the settings. You can use the Log Settings Edit screen to maintain the detailed settings (such as log categories, e-mail addresses, server names, etc.) for any log. Alternatively, if you want to edit what events is included in each log, you can also use the Active Log Summary screen to edit this information for all logs at the same time.

This chapter covers how to use the Diagnostics screen.

48.1 Diagnostics

The Diagnostics screen provides an easy way for you to generate a file containing the ZyWALL's configuration and diagnostic information. You may need to generate this file and send it to customer support during troubleshooting.

Click Maintenance > Diagnostics to open the Diagnostics screen.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Diagnostics - 1
Figure 481 Maintenance > Diagnostics

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 230 Maintenance > Diagnostics

LABELDESCRIPTION
FilenameThis is the name of the most recently created diagnostic file.
Last modifiedThis is the date and time that the last diagnostic file was created. The format is yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.
SizeThis is the size of the most recently created diagnostic file.
Collect NowClick this to have the ZyWALL create a new diagnostic file.
DownloadClick this to save the most recent diagnostic file to a computer.

Use this to restart the device (for example, if the device begins behaving erratically). See also Section 1.4 on page 55 for information on different ways to start and stop the ZyWALL.

If you applied changes in the Web configurator, these were saved automatically and do not change when you reboot. If you made changes in the CLI, however, you have to use the write command to save the configuration before you reboot. Otherwise, the changes are lost when you reboot.

Reboot is different to reset; (see Section 50.2 on page 652) reset returns the device to its default configuration.

The Reboot screen is part of the Web configurator so that remote users can restart the device. To access this screen, click Maintenance > Reboot.

Troubleshooting

This chapter offers some suggestions to solve problems you might encounter.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Troubleshooting - 1

I cannot set up an IPSec VPN tunnel to another device.

If the IPSec tunnel does not build properly, the problem is likely a configuration error at one of the IPSec routers. Log into both ZyXEL IPSec routers and check the settings in each field methodically and slowly. It may help to display the settings for both routers side-by-side.

Here are some general suggestions. See also Section 20.2 on page 296.

  • The system log can often help to identify a configuration problem.
  • If the sites are/were previously connected using a leased line or ISDN router, physically disconnect these devices from the network before testing your new VPN connection. The old route may have been learnt by RIP and would take priority over the new VPN connection.
  • To test whether or not a tunnel is working, ping from a computer at one site to a computer at the other.

Before doing so, ensure that both computers have Internet access (via the IPSec routers).

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Troubleshooting - 2

I cannot set up an L2TP VPN tunnel.

1 Make sure you have configured L2TP correctly on the remote user computers. See Section 26.6 on page 355 for examples.
2 Make sure you configured an appropriate policy route on the ZyWALL.
3 Make sure there is not a firewall or NAT router between the ZyWALL and the remote users.
4 Make sure the remote users are using public IP addresses.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Troubleshooting - 3

The VPN connection is up but VPN traffic cannot be transmitted through the VPN tunnel.

Routing policies define how the ZyWALL forwards packets to their destinations. You must create a policy route for the ZyWALL to route VPN traffic through a VPN tunnel to the remote network.

The VPN wizard automatically creates a corresponding policy route. If you use the VPN > IPSec VPN or VPN > L2TP VPN screens to set up a VPN tunnel, you need to manually configure a policy route for the VPN tunnel.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Troubleshooting - 4

I cannot download the ZyWALL's firmware package.

The ZyWALL's firmware package cannot go through the ZyWALL when you enable the antivirus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option. The ZyWALL classifies the firmware package as not being able to be decompressed and deletes it.

You can upload the firmware package to the ZyWALL with the option enabled, so you only need to clear the Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option while you download the firmware package. See Section 28.3.1 on page 408 for more on the antivirus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Troubleshooting - 5

I changed the LAN IP address and can no longer access the Internet.

If you change the IP address of your LAN interface, make sure you also change the LAN_SUBNET address object.

50.1 Getting More Troubleshooting Help

Search for support information for your model at www.zyxel.com for more troubleshooting suggestions.

50.2 Resetting the ZyWALL

If you forget the administrator password(s) or cannot access the ZyWALL by any method, you can reset the ZyWALL to its factory-default settings. Any configuration files or shell scripts that you saved on the ZyWALL should still be available afterwards.

use the following procedure to reset the ZyWALL to its factory-default settings.

ZYXEL ZYWALL USG 1000 - Resetting the ZyWALL - 1

This procedure removes the current configuration.

If you want to reboot the device without changing the current configuration, see Chapter 49 on page 649.

1 Make sure the SYS LED is on and not blinking.
2 Press the RESET button and hold it until the SYS LED begins to blink. (This usually takes about five seconds.)
3 Release the RESET button, and wait for the ZyWALL to restart.

You should be able to access the ZyWALL using the default settings.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2.1, February 1999

Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get

it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library.

We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the Library.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COOPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

  1. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").

Each licensee is addressed as "you".

A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".)

"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library. Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.

  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: a) The modified work must itself be a software library. b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful. (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.) These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote

it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

  1. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in these notices. Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that is not a library.

  2. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange. If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

  3. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.

However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.) Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

  1. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications. You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things: a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding

machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.) b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution. d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from the same place. e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you distribute.

  1. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things: a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above. b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

  2. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

  3. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.

  4. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.

  5. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented by public license practices.

Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/ donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

  1. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
  2. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
  3. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

  1. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, Either EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTYES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software. Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

  1. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

  2. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

  3. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the

right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

  1. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the

scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable. If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

  1. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

  2. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

  3. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

  4. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

  5. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

  6. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

  7. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

  1. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, Either EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTYES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND

FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

  1. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

This Product includes overLIB software under the overLIB License (Artistic)

License (Artistic)

Preamble

The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some semblance of artistic control over the development of the package, while giving the users of the package the right to use and distribute the Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make reasonable modifications.

Definitions:

"Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files created through textual modification.

"Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes of the Copyright Holder.

"Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights for the package.

"You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing this Package.

"Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the basis of media cost, duplication charges, time of people involved, and so on. (You will not be required to justify it to the Copyright Holder, but only to the computing community at large as a market that must bear the fee.)

"Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item itself, though there may be fees involved in handling the item. It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute it under the same conditions they received it.

You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that you duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.

You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A Package modified in such a way shall still be considered the Standard Version.

You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way, provided that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file stating how and when you changed that file, and provided that you do at least ONE of the following:

place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make them Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to Usenet or an equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a major archive site such as ftp.uu.net, or by allowing the Copyright Holder to include your modifications in the Standard Version of the Package.

use the modified Package only within your corporation or organization.

rename any non-standard executables so the names do not conflict with standard executables, which must also be provided, and provide a separate manual page for each non-standard executable that clearly documents how it differs from the Standard Version.

make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.

You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:

distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library files, together with instructions (in the manual page or equivalent) on where to get the Standard Version.

accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of the Package with your modifications.

accompany any non-standard executables with their corresponding Standard Version executables, giving the non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly documenting the differences in manual pages (or equivalent), together with instructions on where to get the Standard Version.

make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.

You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of this Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However, you may distribute this Package in aggregate with other (possibly commercial) programs as part of a larger (possibly commercial) software distribution provided that you do not advertise this Package as a product of your own.

The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as output from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whomever generated them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this Package.

C or perl subroutines supplied by you and linked into this Package shall not be considered part of this Package.

The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without specific prior written permission.

THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTYES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License

THE WORK (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS CREATIVE COMMONS PUBLIC LICENSE ("CCPL" OR "LICENSE"). THE WORK IS PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.

BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

1. Definitions

a."Collective Work" means a work, such as a periodical issue, anthology or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in unmodified form, along with a number of other contributions, constituting separate and independent works in themselves, are assembled into a collective whole. A work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work (as defined below) for the purposes of this License.

b."Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work and other pre-existing works, such as a translation, musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which the Work may be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.

c."Licensor" means the individual or entity that offers the Work under the terms of this License.

d."Original Author" means the individual or entity who created the Work.

e. "Work" means the copyrightable work of authorship offered under the terms of this License.

f."You" means an individual or entity exercising rights under this License who has not previously violated the terms of this License with respect to the Work, or who has received express permission from the Licensor to exercise rights under this License despite a previous violation.

  1. Fair Use Rights. Nothing in this license is intended to reduce, limit, or restrict any rights arising from fair use, first sale or other limitations on the exclusive rights of the copyright owner under copyright law or other applicable laws.

  2. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, Licensee hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to exercise the rights in the Work as stated below:

a.to reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more Collective Works, and to reproduce the Work as incorporated in the Collective Works;

b.to create and reproduce Derivative Works;

c.to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display publicly, perform publicly, and perform publicly by means of a digital audio transmission the Work including as incorporated in Collective Works;

d.to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display publicly, perform publicly, and perform publicly by means of a digital audio transmission Derivative Works.

e.For the avoidance of doubt, where the work is a musical composition:

i.Performance Royalties Under Blanket Licenses. Licensor waives the exclusive right to collect, whether individually or via a performance rights society (e.g. ASCAP, BMI, SESAC), royalties for the public performance or public digital performance (e.g. webcast) of the Work.

ii.Mechanical Rights and Statutory Royalties. Licensor waives the exclusive right to collect, whether individually or via a music rights agency or designated agent (e.g. Harry Fox Agency), royalties for any phonorecord You create from the Work ("cover version") and distribute, subject to the compulsory license created by 17 USC Section 115 of the US Copyright Act (or the equivalent in other jurisdictions).

f.Webcasting Rights and Statutory Royalties. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a sound recording, Licensee waivers the exclusive right to collect, whether individually or via a performance-rights society (e.g. SoundExchange), royalties for the public digital performance (e.g. webcast) of the Work, subject to the compulsory license created by 17 USC Section 114 of the US Copyright Act (or the equivalent in other jurisdictions).

The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in other media and formats. All rights not expressly granted by Licensor are hereby reserved.

  1. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made subject to and limited by the following restrictions:

a. You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work only under the terms of this License, and You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource Identifier for, this License with every copy or phonorecord of the Work You distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform. You may not offer or impose any terms on the Work that alter or restrict the terms of this License or the recipients' exercise of the rights granted hereunder. You may not sublicense the Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and to the disclaimer of warranties. You may not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work with any technological measures that control access or use of the Work in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this License Agreement. The above applies to the Work as incorporated in a Collective Work, but this does not require the Collective Work apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this License. If You create a Collective Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collective Work any credit as required by clause 4(b), as requested. If You create a Derivative Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Derivative Work any credit as required by clause 4(b), as requested.

b.If you distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work or any Derivative Works or Collective Works, You must keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied, and/or (ii) if the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party or parties (e.g. a sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for attribution in Licensor's copyright notice, terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party or parties; the title of the Work if supplied; to the extent reasonably practicable, the Uniform Resource Identifier, if any, that Licensor specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the copyright notice or licensing information for the Work; and in the case of a Derivative Work, a credit identifying the use of the Work in the Derivative Work (e.g., "French translation of the Work by Original Author," or "Screenplay based on original Work by Original Author"). Such credit may be implemented in any reasonable manner; provided, however, that in the case of a Derivative Work or Collective Work, at a minimum such credit will appear where any other comparable authorship credit appears and in a manner at least as prominent as such other comparable authorship credit.

5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer

UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTYES OF ANY KIND CONCERNING THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTYES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTYES, SO SUCH EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

  1. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ASING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7. Termination

a. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically upon any breach by You of the terms of this License. Individuals or entities who have received Derivative Works or Collective Works from You under this License, however, will not have their licenses terminated provided such individuals or entities remain in full compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will survive any termination of this License.

b. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work). Notwithstanding the above, Licensee reserves the right to release the Work under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at any time; provided, however that any such election will not serve to withdraw this License (or any other license that has been, or is required to be, granted under the terms of this License), and this License will continue in full force and effect unless terminated as stated above.

8. Miscellaneous

a. Each time You distribute or publicly digitally perform the Work or a Collective Work, the License offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.

b.Each time You distribute or publicly digitally perform a Derivative Work, Licensee offers to the recipient a license to the original Work on the same terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.

c.If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.

d.No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no breach consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.

e. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings, agreements or representations with respect to the Work not specified here. Licensor shall not be bound by any additional provisions that may appear in any communication from You. This License may not be modified without the mutual written agreement of the Licensor and You.
