Virtual Server
This product's NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping.
A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule.
For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.2.1, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.2.2, and a VPN server at 192.168.2.6, then you need to specify the following virtual server mapping table:
| Service Port | Server IP | Enable |
| 21 | 192.168.2.1 | V |
| 80 | 192.168.2.2 | V |
| 1723 | 192.168.2.6 | V |
Special Application
Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing,
Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the DMZ host instead.
Trigger: the outbound port number issued by the application..
Incoming Ports: when the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall.
This product provides some predefined settings Select your application and click Copy to to add the predefined setting to your list.
Note! At any given time, only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel.
Firewall
Parental Control
This option lets you enable / disable web sites / services by setting up rules.
MAC Filter
This option lets you control the Wireless clients connection to your MIMO Wireless Router.
Each on of them will be checked before letting them connect wirelessly. This option does not work for wired client PCs. You can select from two different policies:
Allow: will let all computers access the network, except the ones appearing on the list
Block: will not let any computers accessing the network unless they are on the list.
URL (Website) Blocking
URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites.
The major difference between "Domain filter" and "URL Blocking" is Domain filter require user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites by simply a keyword.
URL Blocking Enable
Check, if you want to enable URL Blocking.
URL
If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the connection will be blocked.
For example, you can use pre-defined word "sex" to block all websites if their URLs contain pre-defined word "sex".
Enable
Check to enable each rule.
Advanced Firewall Settings
Enable the Advanced Firewall Protection if you want:
Hacker attack monitoring and logging
Advanced System Log
Email Notification
Enable the Discard Ping from WAN option if you don't want to be seen on the Internet.
You can also enable / disable VPN protocols to pass through your NAT Firewall
Set up your E-Mail address and servers to get the notification emails on the desired account.
Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
This option lets you open all ports to one workstation behind your Router. Be careful with this option, because it let's everybody access that particular PC from everywhere.
To host your server on a changing IP address, you have to use dynamic domain name service (DDNS).
So that anyone wishing to reach your host only needs to know the name of it. Dynamic DNS will map the name of your host to your current IP address, which changes each time you connect your Internet service provider.
Before you enable Dynamic DNS, you need to register an account on one of these Dynamic DNS servers that we list in provider field.
To enable Dynamic DNS click the check box next to Enable in the DDNS field.
Next you can enter the appropriate information about your Dynamic DNS Server.
You have to define:
Provider
Host Name
Username/E-mail
Password/Key
You will get this information when you register an account on a Dynamic DNS server.
After Dynamic DNS setting is configured, click the Apply button.

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb; en-us:313664)
2 DUT
Configuration:
Enable DHCP server.
WAN setting: static IP address.
LAN IP address: 192.168.2.1/24.
Set RADIUS server IP.
Set RADIUS server shared key.
Configure WEP key and 802.1X setting.
The following test will use the inbuilt 802.1X authentication method such as, EAP_TLS, PEAP_CHAPv2(Windows XP with SP1 only), and PEAP_TLS(Windows XP with SP1 only) using the Smart Card or other Certificate of the Windows XP Professional.
3. DUT and Windows 2000 Radius Server Setup
Setup Windows 2000 RADIUS Server
We have to change authentication method to MD5_Challenge or using smart
card or other certificate on RADIUS server according to the test condition.
Setup DUT
Enable the 802.1X (check the "Enable checkbox").
Enter the RADIUS server IP.
Enter the shared key. (The key shared by the RADIUS server and DUT).
We will change 802.1X encryption key length to fit the variable test
condition.
Setup Network adapter on PC
- Choose the IEEE802.1X as the authentication method. (Fig 2)
Note.
Figure 2 is a setting picture of Windows XP without service pack 1. If users upgrade to service pack 1, then they can't see MD5-Challenge from EAP type list any more, but they will get a new Protected EAP (PEAP) option.
2. Choose MD5-Challenge or Smart Card or other Certificate as the EAP type.
3. If choosing use smart card or the certificate as the EAP type, we select to use a certificate on this computer. (Fig 3)
4. We will change EAP type to fit the variable test condition.

- Windows 2000 RADIUS server Authentication testing:
4.1DUT authenticate PC1 using certificate. (PC2 follows the same test procedures.)
Download and install the certificate on PC1. (Fig 4)
PC1 choose the SSID of DUT as the Access Point.
Set authentication type of wireless client and RADIUS server both to
EAP_TLS.
Disable the wireless connection and enable again.
- The DUT will send the user's certificate to the RADIUS server, and then send the message of authentication result to PC1. (Fig 5)
- Windows XP will prompt that the authentication process is success or fail and end the authentication procedure. (Fig 6)
- Terminate the test steps when PC1 get dynamic IP and PING remote host successfully.
