All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 4P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

ZyNOS is ZyXEL's proprietary Network Operating System. It is the platform on all P-202H Plus v2 routers that delivers network services and applications. It is designed in a modular fashion so it is easy for developers to add new features. New ZyNOS software upgrades can be easily downloaded from our FTP sites as they become available.

2. How do I access the P-202H Plus v2 SMT menu?

The SMT interface is a menu driven interface, which can be accessed via a RS232 console or a Telnet connection. To access the P-202H Plus v2 via SMT console port, a computer equipped with communication software such as HyperTerminal must be configured to the following parameters.

  • N81 data format (No Parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit) The default console port baud rate is 9600bps. You can change it to 115200bps in Menu 24.2.2 to speed up access of the SMT.

3. What data compression protocol does the P-202H Plus v2 support?

The P-202H Plus v2 supports STAC compression. Please note that STAC is not enabled in the P-202H Plus v2 by default. You can enable it in Remote Node setup (SMT menu 11.2, Edit PPP Option).

4. What is the default console port baud rate? Moreover, how do I change it?

The default console port baud rate is 9600bps. When configuring the SMT, please make sure that terminal baud rate is also 9600bps. You can change the console baud rate from 9600bps to 57600 to speed up SMT access, by using SMT menu 24.2.2.

5. How do I upload the ZyNOS firmware code via console?

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 6P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The procedure for uploading via console is as follows. a. Enter debug mode when powering on the P-202H Plus v2 using a terminal emulator b. Enter 'ATUR' to start the uploading c. Use X-modem protocol to transfer the ZyNOS code d. Enter 'ATGO' to restart the P-202H Plus v2

6. How do I upgrade/backup the ZyNOS firmware by using TFTP client

program via LAN? The P-202H Plus v2 allows you to transfer the firmware from/to P-202H Plus v2 by using TFTP program via LAN. The procedure for uploading via TFTP is as follows. a. Use the TELNET client program in your PC to login to your P-202H Plus v2, and use Menu 24.8 to enter CI command 'sys stdio 0' to disable console idle timeout. b. To upgrade firmware, use TFTP client program to put firmware in file 'ras' in the P-202H Plus v2. c. When the data transfer is finished, the P-202H Plus v2 will program the upgraded firmware into FLASH ROM and reboot itself. d. To backup your firmware, use the TFTP client program to get file 'ras' from the P-202H Plus v2.

7. How do I upload ROMFILE via console port?

In some situations, such as losing the system password or the need of resetting SMT to factory default you may need to upload the ROMFILE. The procedure for uploading via the console port is as follows. a. Enter debug mode when powering on the P-202H Plus v2 using a terminal emulator b. Enter 'ATUR3' to start the uploading c. Use X-modem protocol to transfer ROMFILE d. Enter 'ATGO' to restart the P-202H Plus v2

8. How do I backup/restore SMT configurations by using TFTP client

program via LAN? a. Use the TELNET client program in your PC to login to your P-202H Plus v2, and use Menu 24.8 to enter CI command 'sys stdio 0' to disable console idle timeout All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 7P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes b. To backup the SMT configurations, use TFTP client program to get file 'rom-0' from the P-202H Plus v2. c. To restore the SMT configurations, use the TFTP client program to save your configuration in file 'rom-0' in the P-202H Plus v2.

9. What should I do if I forget the system password?

In case you forget the system password, you can upload ROMFILE to reset the SMT to factory default. After uploading ROMFILE, the default system password is '1234'.

10. What is SUA? When should I use SUA?

SUA (Single User Account) is a unique feature supported by P-202H Plus v2 router which allows multiple people to access Internet concurrently for the cost of a single user account. When P-202H Plus v2 acting as SUA receives a packet from a local client destined for the outside Internet, it replaces the source address in the IP packet header with its own address and the source port in the TCP or UDP header with another value chosen out of a local pool. It then recomputes the appropriate header checksums and forwards the packet to the Internet as if it is originated from P-202H Plus v2 using the IP address assigned by ISP. When reply packets from the external Internet are received by P-202H Plus v2, the original IP source address and TCP/UDP source port numbers are written into the destination fields of the packet (since it is now moving in the opposite direction), the checksums are recomputed, and the packet is delivered to its true destination. This is because SUA keeps a table of the IP addresses and port numbers of the local systems currently using it.

11. What is the difference between NAT and SUA?

NAT is a generic name defined in RFC 1631 'The IP Network Address Translator (NAT)'. SUA (Internet Single User Account) is ZyXEL's implementation and trade name for functioning PAT (Port Address Translation) which is a specific type of NAT. SUA( or PAT for NAT) translates address into port mapping. The primary motivation for RFC 1631 is that there is not enough IP address to go around. In addition, great many corporations simply did not bother to obtain legal (globally unique) IP addresses for their networks and now finding themselves unable to connect to the Internet. Basically, NAT is a process of translating one address to another. A NAT implementation can be as simple as substituting an IP address with another. This All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 8P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes allows a network to rectify the illegal address problem mentioned above without going through each and every host. The aim of ZyXEL's SUA is to minimize the Internet access cost in a small office environment by using a single IP address to represent the multiple hosts inside. It does more than IP address translation, it also enables hosts on the LAN can access the Internet at the same time.

12. How many network users can the SUA support?

The fixed-size translation table limits the number of simultaneous. A reasonable number will be less than 20 users. Beyond that, the limited modem bandwidth would probably become the bottleneck and any increase in the translation table size will not help.

13. How do I capture the PPP log in my P-202H Plus v2?

The procedure to capture the PPP log in P-202H Plus v2 is as following. To enable the capture of PPP log before a connection is established: a. Enter SMT Menu 24.8, the CI command mode b. Enter 'sys trcl cl' command c. Enter 'sys trcl sw on' command d. Enter 'sys trcp sw on' command To display the PPP log after a connection is disconnected: a. Enter 'sys trcl sw off' command b. Enter 'sys trcp sw off' command c. Enter 'sys trcl disp' command

14. Why do we need the input filter in menu 3.1 and call filter in menu 11.1?

Two factory default filter sets have been optimized for Internet connection. They are configured in menu 21 and applied to menu 3.1 and menu 11.5 to prevent NETBIOS triggering the call. You can remove it if you do not need it.

15. How can I protect against IP spoofing attacks?

The P-202H Plus v2's filter sets provide a means to protect against IP spoofing attacks. The basic scheme is as follows: For the incoming data filter: All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 9P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

  • Deny packets from the outside that claim to be from the inside
  • Allow everything that is not spoofing us Filter rule setup:
  • Action Matched =Drop
  • Action Not Matched =Forward Where a.b.c.d is an IP address on your local network and w.x.y.z is your netmask: For the outgoing data filters:
  • Deny bounceback packet
  • Allow packets that originate from us Filter rule setup:
  • Action Matched =Drop
  • Action No Matched =Forward Where a.b.c.d is an IP address on your local network and w.x.y.z is your netmask.

16. What is DNS proxy?

If enabled, DNS Proxy allows the P-202H Plus v2 to act as the DNS server for the local network. The P-202H Plus v2 gets the IP address of the actual DNS server from the remote site via IPCP negotiation. Note this feature only works if the remote site supports RFC 1877. How do I turn on DNS Proxy? DNS Proxy is enabled only if the selection of the DHCP field under DHCP Setup in Menu 3.2 is Server and the Primary DNS Server is set to 0.0.0.0. (this is the factory default). If the DNS Proxy is enabled, the P-202H Plus v2 will assign its IP address as the Primary DNS in the responses to DHCP requests on the local network. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 10P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes How do I set DNS other than P-202H Plus v2 IP address? The P-202H Plus v2 assigns the values entered in Primary DNS server and Secondary DNS server fields in Menu 3.2 to the responses to the DHCP requests on the local network if the DHCP Server function is enabled.

17. What is a Nailed-up Connection and when do I need to use it?

A Nailed-up Connection, when enabled, emulates a leased line connection even though the physical line is a dial-up connection. The P-202H Plus v2 dials and holds up a connection, without any traffic requesting it. When you want the link to be always up, you need to use it.

18. What are Device filters and Protocol filters?

In ZyNOS, the filters have been separated into two groups. One group is called 'device filter group', and the other is called 'protocol filter group'. Generic filters belong to the 'device filter group', TCP/IP and IPX filters belong to the 'protocol filter group'.

19. Why can't I configure device filters or protocol filters?

In ZyNOS, you can not mix different filter groups in the same filter set.

20. The P-202H Plus v2 supports to upload the firmware and configuration

files using FTP, but how do I prevent the outside user from 'FTP' my P-202H Plus v2? The P-202H Plus v2 supports to upload the firmware and configuration files using FTP connections via LAN and WAN. So, this becomes unsecure that anyone can make a FTP connection over the Internet to your P-202H Plus v2. To prevent from outside users connecting to your P-202H Plus v2 via FTP, you can configure a filter to block the FTP connection from WAN.

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 11P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

1. How do I collect EPA trace? Moreover, how do I read it?

  • Enable the trace in Menu 24.8 by the following CI command: isdn fw ana on
  • Make a call to remote node or ISP by: dev dial N (N is the remote node number)
  • Drop the call by: dev channel drop bri0|bri1 (bri0 for B1 channel, bri1 for B2 channel)
  • Display the trace by: isdn fw ana off isdn fw ana disp

2. Can I prevent the dial-in user from occupying two channels?

Yes. You can use a CI command to prevent the dial-in user from occupying two channels. Please enter to menu 24.8 and type the CI command: ppp lcp mpin off (or on to allow two channels)

3. How does 'Dial Prefix to Access Outside Line' in Menu 2 (European

firmware) work? This prefix will be placed in front of the outgoing call phone numbers when you make an outgoing call.

4. What supplemental phone service does P-202H Plus v2 support

The P-202H Plus v2 supports the following supplementary phone features on both of its POTS ports. Call Waiting Three Way Calling All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 12P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Call Transfer Call Forwarding Reminder Ring Terminal Portability(Suspend/Resume) Most supplementary services are not free, please check with your telephone company for the services they offer.

5. How do I do call waiting/call hold/call retrieve?

  • Put your current call on hold and answer the incoming call - after hearing the call waiting tone, press and immediately release the Flash button on your telephone.
  • Put your current call on hold and switch to another call - press and immediately release the Flash button on your telephone.
  • Hang up your current call before answering the incoming call - hang up the phone and wait for answering the incoming call.
  • Hang up the current active call and switch back to the other call - hang up and wait for the phone to ring. Then pick up the phone to return to the other call.

6. Why doesn't call waiting work as expected?

An incoming caller will receive a busy signal if:

  • You have two calls active (one active and one on hold; or both active by using Three-Way Calling).
  • You are dialing a number on the B channel the incoming caller is attempting to reach, but have not yet established a connection. If no action is taken to answer the call (call waiting indicator tone is ignored), the call waiting tones will disappear after about 20 seconds.

7. How do I do three way calling?

  • Press the Flash key to put the existing call on hold and receive a dial tone.
  • Dial the third party's phone number.
  • When you are ready to conference the call together, press the Flash key again to establish a three way conference call.

8. How do I remove a party from the three-way calling?

Simply press the Flash key. The last call that was added to the conference is dropped. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 13P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes If you hang up your telephone during a three-way call and the two other callers remain on the line, the ISDN network will do an implicit transfer to directly connect the two remaining callers together.

9. How do I do call transfer?

Call Transfer allows you to transfer an active call to a third party. This service must be subscribed from your telephone company. Transferring an active call to a third party:

  • Once you have an active call (Caller A), press Flash key to put Caller A on hold and receive a dial tone.
  • Dial the third party's phone number (Caller B).
  • When you are ready to conference the two calls together, press Flash key to a Three-Way Conference call.
  • Hang up the phone. The ISDN network does an implicit transfer to directly connect Caller A with Caller B.

10. How do I blind call transfer?

  • Once you have an active call (Caller A), press Flash key to put the existing call on hold and receive a dial tone.
  • Dial the third party's phone number (Caller B).
  • Before Caller B picks up the call, you can transfer the call by pressing the Flash key. The call is automatically transferred.

11. What is call forwarding and how do I do it?

The call forwarding means the switch will ring another number at a place where you will be when sometime dials your directory number. There are two methods to active call forwarding, either method should work fine and you can use whichever one you are most comfortable. The first is exactly the same as on an analog line, i.e., you pick up the handset and dial the access code assign by your telephone company and the number that you want the calls forwarded. Check with your telephone company for this access code. The second is with the 'phone flash' commands where you pick up the handset and press the flash key before dialing the following: Command Meaning *20*forward-number# Active CFB (Call Forwarding Busy) *21*forward-number# Active CFU (Call Forwarding All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 14P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Unconditional) *22*forward-number# Active CFNR (Call Forwarding No Reply #20# Deactive CFB #21# Deactive CFU #22# Deactive CFNR

12. How do I suspend/resume a phone call (terminal portability)?

The Terminal Portability service allows you to suspend a phone call temporarily. You can then resume this call later, at another location if you so wish. To suspend an active phone call:

  • Press the flash key twice.
  • Dial *3n*#, where n is any number from 1 to 9. To resume your phone call:
  • Reconnect at a (n) (ISDN) telephone that is linked to the same S/T interface (Network Terminator-1, NT1) where you suspended the call.
  • Pick up the handset and press the Flash key
  • Dial #3n#, where n is any number from 1 to 9, but should be identical to that used above.

13. What is reminder ring?

The P-202H Plus v2 sends a single short ring to your telephone every time a call has been forwarded(US switches only).

14. Why doesn't my answering machine on POTS port stop recording?

Most answering machines stop recording when a busy tone is detected. But some may not. Some answering machine only recongnize that a calling party has hung up after a period of silence. In this case, if such an answering machine is attched to the POTS port of P-202H Plus v2 you need to configure the 'Hangup Silence Time(sec)=' in SMT menu 2.1 to determine the silence time period. By doing so, once P-202H Plus v2 receives busy tones from the switch it sends the silence tone to the answering machine on POTS meanwhile.

15. What are CLIP and CLIR in Advanced Setup of Menu 2 (European

firmware)? CLIP or CLIR refers to CLID Presented or Restricted. The P-202H Plus v2 can set the CLIP/CLIR bit at SETUP message to request the Switch, to include the All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 15P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes calling party number or not when the switch sends the SETUP message to the called party. You need subscribe to it first (see supplemental services)

16. Does P-202H Plus v2 support MP callback to dial-in users?

No, P-202H Plus v2 only supports single link PPP to dial-in users.

17. Does ZyNOS support IRC, Real Player, CU-SeeMe and NetMeeting?

Yes. For the detail of the settings please refer to the Tested SUA Applications page.

18. What are the differences between P-202H, P-202H Plus and P-202H Plus

v2? The differences between P-202H, P-202H Plus and P-202H Plus v2 are listed in the following table. Feature / Model P-202H P-202H Plus P-202H Plus v2 Ethernet Port 1 10/100M 4 10/100M 4 10/100M a/b adapter 2 - - Remote Access Server (Dial-in user suppport) Y Y Y

1. What is a network firewall?

A firewall is a system or group of systems that enforces an access-control policy between two networks. It may also be defined as a mechanism used to protect a trusted network from an untrusted network. The firewall can be thought of two mechanisms. One to block the traffic, and the other to permit traffic.

2. What makes P-202H Plus v2 secure?

The P-202H Plus v2 is pre-configured to automatically detect and thwart Denial of Service (DoS) attacks such as Ping of Death, SYN Flood, LAND attack, IP Spoofing, etc. It also uses stateful packet inspection to determine if an inbound connection is allowed through the firewall to the private LAN. The P-202H Plus v2supports Network Address Translation (NAT), which translates the private local addresses to one or multiple public addresses. This adds a level of security since the clients on the private LAN are invisible to the Internet.

3. What are the basic types of firewalls?

Conceptually, there are three types of firewalls:

3. Stateful Inspection Firewall

Packet Filtering Firewalls generally make their decisions based on the header information in individual packets. These header information include the source, destination addresses and ports of the packets. Application-level Firewalls generally are hosts running proxy servers, which permit no traffic directly between networks, and which perform logging and auditing of traffic passing through them. A proxy server is an application gateway or circuit-level gateway that runs on top of general operating system such as UNIX or Windows NT. It hides valuable data by requiring users to communicate with secure systems by mean of a proxy. A key drawback of this device is performance. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

Stateful Inspection Firewalls restrict access by screening data packets against defined access rules. They make access control decisions based on IP address and protocol. They also 'inspect' the session data to assure the integrity of the connection and to adapt to dynamic protocols. The flexible nature of StatefulP-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Inspection firewalls generally provides the best speed and transparency, however, they may lack the granular application level access control or caching that some proxies support.

4. What kind of firewall is the P-202H Plus v2?

1. The P-202H Plus v2's firewall inspects packets contents and IP headers. It

is applicable to all protocols, that understands data in the packet is intended for other layers, from network layer up to the application layer.

2. The P-202H Plus v2's firewall performs stateful inspection. It takes into

account the state of connections it handles so that, for example, a legitimate incoming packet can be matched with the outbound request for that packet and allowed in. Conversely, an incoming packet masquerading as a response to a nonexistent outbound request can be blocked.

3. The P-202H Plus v2's firewall uses session filtering, i.e., smart rules, that

enhance the filtering process and control the network session rather than control individual packets in a session.

4. The P-202H Plus v2's firewall is fast. It uses a hashing function to search

the matched session cache instead of going through every individual rule for a packet.

5. The P-202H Plus v2's firewall provides email service to notify you for

routine reports and when alerts occur.

5. Why do you need a firewall when your router has packet filtering and

NAT built-in? With the spectacular growth of the Internet and online access, companies that do business on the Internet face greater security threats. Although packet filter and NAT restrict access to particular computers and networks, however, for the other companies this security may be insufficient, because packets filters typically cannot maintain session state. Thus, for greater security, a firewall is considered.

6. What is Denials of Service (DoS)attack?

Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to the Internet. Their goal is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network so users no longer have access to network resources. There are four types of DoS attacks:

1. Those that exploits bugs in a TCP/IP implementation such as Ping of

2. Those that exploits weaknesses in the TCP/IP specification such as SYN

Flood and LAND Attacks. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 18P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

3. Brute-force attacks that flood a network with useless data such as Smurf

7. What is Ping of Death attack?

Ping of Death uses a 'PING' utility to create an IP packet that exceeds the maximum 65535 bytes of data allowed by the IP specification. The oversize packet is then sent to an unsuspecting system. Systems may crash, hang, or reboot.

8. What is Teardrop attack?

Teardrop attack exploits weakness in the reassemble of the IP packet fragments. As data is transmitted through a network, IP packets are often broken up into smaller chunks. Each fragment looks like the original packet except that it contains an offset field. The Teardrop program creates a series of IP fragments with overlapping offset fields. When these fragments are reassembled at the destination, some systems will crash, hang, or reboot.

9. What is SYN Flood attack?

SYN attack floods a targeted system with a series of SYN packets. Each packet causes the targeted system to issue a SYN-ACK response, While the targeted system waits for the ACK that follows the SYN-ACK, it queues up all outstanding SYN-ACK responses on what is known as a backlog queue. SYN-ACKs are moved off the queue only when an ACK comes back or when an internal timer (which is set a relatively long intervals) terminates the TCP three-way handshake. Once the queue is full , the system will ignore all incoming SYN requests, making the system unavailable for legitimate users.

10. What is LAND attack?

In a LAN attack, hackers flood SYN packets to the network with a spoofed source IP address of the targeted system. This makes it appear as if the host computer sent the packets to itself, making the system unavailable while the target system tries to respond to itself. 11 What is Brute-force attack? A Brute-force attack, such as 'Smurf' attack, targets a feature in the IP specification known as directed or subnet broadcasting, to quickly flood the target network with useless data. A Smurf hacker flood a destination IP address of each packet is 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 All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 19P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes hosts, this will create a large amount of ICMP echo request packet, the resulting ICMP traffic will not only clog up the 'intermediary' network, but will also congest the network of the spoofed source IP address, known as the 'victim' network. This flood of broadcast traffic consumes all available bandwidth, making communications impossible.

12. What is IP Spoofing attack?

Many DoS attacks also use IP Spoofing as part of their attack. IP Spoofing may be used to break into systems, to hide the hacker's identity, or to magnify the effect of the DoS attack. IP Spoofing is a technique used to gain unauthorized access to computers by tricking a router or firewall into thinking that the communications are coming from within the trusted network. To engage in IP Spoofing, a hacker must modify the packet headers so that it appears that the packets originate from a trusted host and should be allowed through the router or firewall.

13. What are the default ACL firewall rules in P-202H Plus v2?

There are two default ACLs pre-configured in the P-202H Plus v2, one allows all connections from LAN to WAN and the other blocks all connections from WAN to LAN except of the DHCP packets.

14. Why static/policy route be blocked by P-202H Plus v2?

P-202H Plus v2 is an ideal secure gateway for all data passing between the Internet and the LAN/DMZ. For some reasons (load balance or backup line), users may want traffic to be re-routed to another Internet access devices while still be protected by P-202H Plus v2. In such case, the network topology is the most important issue. Here is a common example that people mis-deploy the static route. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 20P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The above figure indicates the "triangle route" topology. It works fine if you turn off firewall function on P-202H Plus v2 box. However, if you turn on firewall, your connection will be blocked by firewall because of the following reason. Step 1. Being the default gateway of PC, P-202H Plus v2 will receive all "outgoing" traffic from PC. Step 2. And because of Static route/Policy Routing, P-202H Plus v2 forwards the traffic to another gateway (ISDN/Router) which is in the same segment as P-202H Plus v2's LAN. Step 3. However the return traffic won't go back to P-202H Plus v2, in stead, the "another gateway (ISDN/Router)" will send back the traffic to PC directly. Because the gateway (say, P201) and the PC are in the same segment. When firewall is turned on, P-202H Plus v2 will check the outgoing traffic by ACL and create dynamic sessions to allow return traffic to go back. To achieve Anti- DoS, P-202H Plus v2 will send RST packets to the PC and the peer since it never receives the TCP SYN/ACK packet. Thus the connection will always be reset by P-202H Plus v2. Solutions. (A) Deploying your second gateway in IP alias segment is a better solution. In this way, your connection can be always under control of firewall. And thus there won't be Triangle Route problem. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 21P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes (B) Deploying your second gateway on WAN side. (C) To resolve this conflict, we add an option for users to allow/disallow such Triangle Route topology in both CI command and Web configurator . You can issue this command, "sys firewall ignore triangle all on" , to allow firewall bypass triangle route checking. In Web GUI, you can find this option in firewall setup page. But we would like to notify that if you allow Triangle Route, any traffic will be easily injected into the protected network through the unprotected gateway. In fact, it's a security hole in protected your network. Configuration

1. How do I configure the firewall?

P-202H Plus v2 supports a embedded web server so that you can use the web brower to configure it from any OS platform. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 22P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

2. How do I prevent others from configuring my firewall?

There are several ways to protect others from touching the settings of your firewall.

1. Change the default password since it is required when setting up the

firewall using Telnet, Console or Web browser.

2. Limit who can Telnet to your router. You can enter the IP address of the

secured LAN host in SMT Menu 24.11 to allow Telnet to your P-202H Plus v2. The default value in this field is 0.0.0.0, which means you do not care which host is trying to Telnet your P-202H Plus v2.

3. Can I use a browser to configure my P-202H Plus v2?

Yes, you can use a web browser to configure the P-202H Plus v2.

4. Why can't I configure my router using Telnet over WAN?

There are three reasons that Telnet from WAN is blocked.

1. When the firewall is turned on, all connections from WAN to LAN are

blocked by the default ACL rule. To enable Telnet from WAN, you must turn the firewall off (Menu 21.2) or create a firewall rule to allow Telnet connection from WAN. The WAN-to-LAN ACL summary will look like as shown below. Source IP= Telnet host Destination IP= router' WAN IP Service= TCP/23 Action=Forward

2. You have disabled Telnet service in Menu 24.11.

3. Telnet service is enabled but your host IP is not the secured host entered

in Menu 24.11. In this case, the error message 'Client IP is not allowed!' is appeared on the Telnet screen.

4. The default filter rule 3 (Telnet_FTP_WAN) is applied in the Input Protocol

5. The console port is in use.

5. Why can't I upload the firmware and configuration file using FTP over

1. When the firewall is turned on, all connections from WAN to LAN are

blocked by the default ACL rule. To enable FTP from WAN, you must turn the All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 23P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes firewall off (Menu 21.2) or create a firewall rule to allow FTP connection from WAN. The WAN-to-LAN ACL summary will look like as shown below. Source IP= FTP host Destination IP= P-202H Plus v2's WAN IP Service= FTP TCP/21, TCP/20 Action=Forward

2. You have disabled FTP service in Menu 24.11.

3. The default filter rule 3 (Telnet_FTP_WAN) is applied in the Input Protocol

6. Why can't I configure my router using Telnet over LAN?

1. You have disabled Telnet service in Menu 24.11.

2. Telnet service is enabled but your host IP is not the secured host entered

in Menu 24.11. In this case, the error message 'Client IP is not allowed!' is appeared on the Telnet screen.

3. The default filter rule 3 (Telnet_FTP_LAN) is applied in the Input Protocol

4. The console port is in use.

7. Why can't I upload the firmware and configuration file using FTP over

1. 1. You have disabled FTP service in Menu 24.11.

2. The default filter rule 3 (Telnet_FTP_LAN) is applied in the Input Protocol

field in menu 3.1. Log and alert

1. When does the P-202H Plus v2 generate the firewall log?

The P-202H Plus v2 generates the log immediately when the packet match, doesn't match (or both) a firewall rule. The log for Default Permit (LAN to WAN, WAN to LAN) is generated automatically. To generate the log for custom rules, the Log option in Web Configurator must be set to Not Match, Match, or Both. The Reason column for the default permit shown in the log will be 'default permit, <1, 00> or <2, 00>'. Here <1, 00> means the LAN-to-WAN default ACL set, <2, 00> means the WAN-to-LAN default ACL set.

2. What does the log show to us?

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 24P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The log supports up to 128 entries. There are 2 rows and 5 columns for each entry. Please see the example shown below. # Time Packet Information Reason Action 127|Mar 15 0 |From:192.168.1.34 To:202.132.155.93 |default permit |forward | 03:03:54|ICMP type:00008 code:00000 |<1,00> | Where <X,Y> stands for <Set number, Rule number>. X=1,2 ; Y=00~10. There are two policy sets, set 1 for rules checking connections from LAN to WAN and set 2 for rules checking connections from WAN to LAN. So, X=1 means set 1 and X=2 means set 2. Y means the rule in the set. Because we can configure up to 10 rules in a set, so Y can be from 1 to 10. If the rule number shows 00, it means the Default Rule.

3. How do I view the firewall log?

The log keeps 128 entries, the new entries will overwrite the old entries when the log has over 128 entries. There are three ways to view the firewall log:

1. View the log from SMT Menu 21.3-View Firewall Log

The P-202H Plus v2 generates the alert when an attack is detected by the firewall and sends it via Email. So, to send the alert you must configure the mail server and Email address using Web Configurator. You can also specify how frequently you want to receive the alert via Web Configurator.

5. What does the alert show to us?

The alert shown in the Email is actually the evens of the attack. So, the Reason column shows Attack and the attack type. Please see the example shown below. # Time Packet Information Reason Action 127|Mar 15 0 |From:192.168.1.1 To:192.168.1.1 |attack |block | 03:04:54|ICMP type:00008 code:00000 |land | All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 25P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

6. What is the difference between the log and alert?

A log entry is just added to the log inside the P-202H Plus v2 and e-mailed together with all other log entries at the scheduled time as configured. An alert is e-mailed immediately after an attacked is detected.

A VPN gives users a secure link to access corporate network over the Internet or other public or private networks without the expense of lease lines. A secure VPN is a combination of tunneling, encryption, authentication, access control and auditing technologies/services used to transport traffic over the Internet or any insecure network that uses the TCP/IP protocol suite for communication.

2. Why do I need VPN?

There are some reasons to use a VPN. The most common reasons are because of security and cost. Security 1). Authentication With authentication, VPN receiver can verify the source of packets and guarantee the data integrity. 2). Encryption With encryption, VPN guarantees the confidentiality of the original user data. Cost 1). Cut long distance phone charges Because users typically dial the their local ISP for VPN, thus, long distance phone charge is reduced than making a long direct connection to the remote office. 2).Reducing number of access lines Many companies pay monthly charges for two types access lines: (1) high-speed links for their Internet access and (2) frame relay, ISDN Primary Rate Interface or T1 lines to carry data. A VPN may allow a company to carry the data traffic over its Internet access lines, thus reducing the need for some installed lines. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 27P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

3. What are most common VPN protocols?

There are currently three major tunneling protocols for VPNs. They are Point-to- Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) and Internet Protocol Security (IPSec).

PPTP is a tunneling protocol defined by the PPTP forum that allows PPP packets to be encapsulated within Internet Protocol (IP) packets and forwarded over any IP network, including the Internet itself. The PPTP is supported in Windows NT and Windows 98 already. For Windows 95, it needs to be upgraded by the Dial- Up Networking 1.2 upgrade.

Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) is an extension of the Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) used by an Internet service provider (ISP) to enable the operation of a virtual private network (VPN) over the Internet.

IPSec is a set of IP extensions developed by IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) to provide security services compatible with the existing IP standard (IPv.4) and also the upcoming one (IPv.6). In addition, IPSec can protect any protocol that runs on top of IP, for instance TCP, UDP, and ICMP. The IPSec provides cryptographic security services. These services allow for authentication, integrity, access control, and confidentiality. IPSec allows for the information exchanged between remote sites to be encrypted and verified. You can create encrypted tunnels (VPNs), or just do encryption between computers. Since you have so many options, IPSec is truly the most extensible and complete network security solution.

7. What secure protocols does IPSec support?

There are two protocols provided by IPSec, they are AH (Authentication Header, protocol number 51) and ESP (Encapsulated Security Payload, protocol number 50).

8. What are the differences between 'Transport mode' and 'Tunnel mode?

The IPSec protocols (AH and ESP) can be used to protect either an entire IP payload or only the upper-layer protocols of an IP payload. Transport mode is mainly for an IP host to protect the data generated locally, while tunnel mode is All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 28P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes for security gateway to provide IPSec service for other machines lacking of IPSec capability. In this case, Transport mode only protects the upper-layer protocols of IP payload (user data). Tunneling mode protects the entire IP payload including user data. There is no restriction that the IPSec hosts and the security gateway must be separate machines. Both IPSec protocols, AH and ESP, can operate in either transport mode and tunnel mode.

A Security Association (SA) is a contract between two parties indicating what security parameters, such as keys and algorithms they will use.

IKE is short for Internet Key Exchange. Key Management allows you to determine whether to use IKE (ISAKMP) or manual key configuration to set up a VPN. There are two phases in every IKE negotiation- phase 1 (Authentication) and phase 2 (Key Exchange). Phase 1 establishes an IKE SA and phase 2 uses that SA to negotiate SAs for IPSec.

11. What is Pre-Shared Key?

A pre-shared key identifies a communicating party during a phase 1 IKE negotiation. It is called 'Pre-shared' because you have to share it with another party before you can communicate with them over a secure connection.

12. What are the differences between IKE and manual key VPN?

The only difference between IKE and manual key is how the encryption keys and SPIs are determined.

  • For IKE VPN, the key and SPIs are negotiated from one VPN gateway to the other. Afterward, two VPN gateways use this negotiated keys and SPIs to send packets between two networks.
  • For manual key VPN, the encryption key, authentication key (if needed), and SPIs are predetermined by the administrator when configuring the security association. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 29P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes IKE is more secure than manual key, because IKE negotiation can generate new keys and SPIs randomly for the VPN connection. P-202H Plus v2 VPN

2. How many VPN connections does P-202H Plus v2 support?

One P-202H Plus v2 202H Plus supports 2 VPN connections.

3. What VPN protocols are supported by P-202H Plus v2 VPN?

All P-202H Plus v2 series support ESP (protocol number 50) and AH (protocol number 51).

4. What types of encryption does P-202H Plus v2 VPN support?

P-202H Plus v2 supports 56-bit DES and 168-bit 3DES.

5. What types of authentication does P-202H Plus v2 VPN support?

VPN vendors support a number of different authentication methods. P-202H Plus v2 VPN supports both SHA1 and MD5. AH provides authentication, integrity, and replay protection (but not confidentiality). Its main difference with ESP is that AH also secures parts of the IP header of the packet (like the source/destination addresses), but ESP does not. ESP can provide authentication, integrity, replay protection, and confidentiality of the data (it secures everything in the packet that follows the header). Replay protection requires authentication and integrity (these two go always together). Confidentiality (encryption) can be used with or without authentication/integrity. Similarly, one could use authentication/integrity with or without confidentiality.

6. I am planning my P-202H Plus v2-to-P-202H Plus v2 VPN configuration.

What do I need to know? All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 30P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes First of all, both P-202H Plus v2 must have VPN capabilities. Please check the firmware version, V3.50 or later has the VPN capability. If your P-202H Plus v2 is capable of VPN, you can find the VPN options in Advanced>VPN tab. For configuring a "box-to-box VPN", there are some tips:

1. If there is a NAT router running in the front of P-202H Plus v2, please

make sure the NAT router supports to pass through IPSec.

2. In NAT case (either run on the frond end router, or in P-202H Plus v2 VPN

box), only IPSec ESP tunneling mode is supported since NAT againsts AH mode.

3. Source IP/Destination IP-- Please do not number the LANs (local and

remote) using the same exact range of private IP addresses. This will make VPN destination addresses and the local LAN addresses are indistinguishable, and VPN will not work.

4. Secure Gateway IP Address -- This must be a public, routable IP

address, private IP is not allowed. That means it can not be in the 10.x.x.x subnet, the 192.168.x.x subnet, nor in the range 172.16.0.0 -

172.31.255.255 (these address ranges are reserved by internet standard

for private LAN numberings behind NAT devices). It is usually a static IP so that we can pre-configure it in P-202H Plus v2 for making VPN connections. If it is a dynamic IP given by ISP, you still can configure this IP address after the remote P-202H Plus v2 is on-line and its WAN IP is available from ISP.

7. Does P-202H Plus v2 support dynamic secure gateway IP?

If the remote VPN gateways uses dynamic IP, we enter 0.0.0.0 as the Secure Gateway IP Address in P-202H Plus v2. In this case, the VPN connection can only be initiated from dynamic side to fixed side in order to update its dynamic IP to the fixed side. However, if both gateways use dynamic IP addresses, it is no way to establish VPN connection at all.

8. What VPN gateway that has been tested with P-202H Plus v2

successfully? We have tested P-202H Plus v2 successfully with the following third party VPN gateways.

  • WatchGuard Firebox II All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 31P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

9. What VPN software that has been tested with P-202H Plus v2

successfully? We have tested P-202H Plus v2 successfully with the following third party VPN software.

  • Windows 2000, IPSec 10.Will ZyXEL support Secure Remote Management? Yes, we will support it and we are working on it currently.

11. Does P-202H Plus v2 VPN support NetBIOS broadcast?

The current 3.40 firmware release does not support it. But it is in our wish list.

12. What are the difference between the 'My IP Address' and 'Secure

Gateway IP Address' in Menu 27.1.1? 'My IP Adderss' is the Internet IP address of the local P-202H Plus v2. The 'Secure Gateway IP Address' is the Internet IP address of the remote IPSec gateway.

13. Is the host behind NAT allowed to use IPSec?

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

NAT Condition Supported IPSec Protocol VPN Gateway embedded NAT AH tunnel mode, ESP tunnel mode VPN client/gateway behind ESP tunnel modeP-202H Plus v2 Support Notes NAT

NAT in Transport mode None

  • The NAT router must support IPSec pass through. For example, for P-202H Plus v2 SUA/NAT routers, IPSec pass through is supported since ZyNOS 3.21. The default port and the client IP have to be specified in menu 15-SUA Server Setup.

14. Why does VPN throughput decrease when staying in SMT menu 24.1?

If P-202H Plus v2 stays in menu 24.1, 24.8 and 27.3 a certain of memory is allocated to generate the required statistics. So, we do not suggest to stay in menu 24.1, 27.3 and 24.8 when VPN is in use.

15. How do I configure P-202H Plus v2 with NAT for internal servers?

Generally, without IPSec, to configure an internal server for outside access, we need to configure the server private IP and its service port in SUA/NAT Server Table. However, if both NAT and IPSec is enabled in P-202H Plus v2, the edit of the table is necessary only if the connection is a non-secure connections. For secure connections, none SUA server settings are required since private IP is reachable in the VPN case. For example: host-----------P-202H Plus v2(NAT)-----------------Internet----Secure host

SSH Sentinel FAQ All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 33P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

1. What is SSH Sentinel VPN client?

Developed by SSH (http://www.ssh.com) Sentinel VPN client is a bundled software with P-202H Plus v2 VPN solution. It supports IPSec/VPN.

2. Why do I need to use Sentinel?

SSH Sentinel(TM) is an easy-to-use software for remote working based on the latest VPN technology. The software provides smooth integration with P-202H Plus v2 VPN which may be installed in HQ gateway.

3. Does SSH Sentinel work with the PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) protocol,

which is used by the ADSL Network Adapter cards? Yes, the latest release SSH Sentinel 1.3, also supports PPPoE, but due to the wide range of PPPoE implementations and the fact, that we have a very limited access to PPPoE adapters in general, we are not able to fully test this functionality. As a consequence, it is hard to say with exactly which PPPoE drivers SSH Sentinel 1.3 is fully compatible.

4. How to configure Pre-IPSec filter?

In pre-ipsec configuration, never, remove the pre-IPSec filter rule that bypasses IKE traffic. If you do, all your attempts to establish any IPSec connection are bound to fail, because the negotiations never take place. Only when you would like to have some TCP/UDP packets bypass IPSec, must you specify the traffic as bypass in pre-ipsec filter. Otherwise, just not setup any bypass/discard/reject on the traffic you would like to be protected by IPSec.

5. What is "Acquire virtual IP address" for? Should I check this box?

With this feature, Sentinel can obtain a virtual IP address assigned from VPN gateway. However, if connecting with P-202H Plus v2, please not check this box. P-202H Plus v2 doesn’t support this feature in current firmware.

6. What is "Extended Authentication"? Should I check this box?

With this feature, VPN connection from Sentinel can be authenticated to authentication server, such as, RADIUS, TACAS, …etc. behind remote VPN gateway. However, if connecting with P-202H Plus v2, please not check this box. P-202H Plus v2 doesn’t support this feature in current firmware. It will support in the near future. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 34P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

7. Does Sentinel support IP range?

No, only subnet/single is supported. So when connecting with P-202H Plus v2, please not use range as address type.

8. Does Sentinel support 2 VPN connections at the same time?

No, Sentinel doesn’t support it. Only one VPN connection can be activated at the same time.

9. What is this option, “Attach the selected values to proposal only” for?

To increase compatibility, Sentinel sends many kinds of possible proposal for it’s peer side, say P-202H Plus v2 to choose. If you uncheck this option, Sentinel will only send out the proposal you configured. To decrease negotiation time, you can uncheck this option, and verify phase1/phase2 parameters are consistent on both sides.

10. How to initiate a VPN tunnel from Sentinel?

Right click SSH icon in system tray, click the VPN connection you have setup in Select VPN. Packets triggering doesn't work in this case.

11. Can P-202H Plus v2 be the initiator of VPN tunnel to Sentinel?

No. Sentinel is supposed to be a VPN solution for remote access. Please always initiate your VPN tunnel from Sentinel but not from P-202H Plus v2.

12. How can I verify if the VPN connection is up in Sentinel?

You can check if your VPN connection is up by double clicking SSH icon in system tray. If the connection is up, you should see your VPN network in the popped out window.

13. I am using EnterNet 300, a PPPoE dial up software. Any concern?

If using EnterNet PPP over Ethernet client, the network access type must be set from the client’s advanced connection settings to protocol driver. Open Enternet 300 Profiles window -> Connections -> Settings -> Advanced -> In Network Access section choose Protocol Driver.

  • Introduction PPTP is a tunneling protocol defined by the PPTP forum that allows PPP packets to be encapsulated within Internet Protocol (IP) packets and forwarded over any IP network, including the Internet itself. In order to run the Windows9x PPTP client, you must be able to establish an IP connection with a tunnel server such as the Windows NT Server 4.0 Remote Access Server. Windows Dial-Up Networking uses the Internet standard Point-to-Point (PPP) to provide a secure,optimized multiple-protocol network connection over dial-up telephone lines. All data sent over this connection can be encrypted and compressed, and multiple network level protocols (TCP/IP, NetBEUI and IPX) can be run correctly. Windows NT Domain Login level security is preserved even across the Internet. Window95 PPTP Client / Internet / NT RAS Server Protocol Stack All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

PPTP appears as new modem type (Virtual Private Networking Adapter) that can be selected when setting up a connection in the Dial-Up Networking folder. The VPN Adapter type does not appear elsewhere in the system. Since PPTP encapsulates its data stream in the PPP protocol, the VPN requires a second dial-up adapter. This second dial-up adapter for VPN is added during the installation phase of the Upgrade in addition to the first dial-up adapter that provides PPP support for the analog or ISDN modem.P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The PPTP is supported in Windows NT and Windows 98 already. For Windows 95, it needs to be upgraded by the Dial-Up Networking 1.2 upgrade.

  • Configuration This application note explains how to establish a PPTP connection with a remote private network in the P-202H Plus v2 SUA case. In ZyNOS, all PPTP packets can be forwarded to the internal PPTP Server (WinNT server) behind SUA. The port number of the PPTP has to be entered in the SMT Menu 15 for P-202H Plus v2 to forward to the appropriate private IP address of Windows NT server.
  • Example The following example shows how to dial to an ISP via the P-202H Plus v2 and then establish a tunnel to a private network. There will be three items that you need to set up for PPTP application, these are PPTP server (WinNT), PPTP client (Win9x) and the P-202H Plus v2. o PPTP server setup (WinNT) Add the VPN service from Control Panel>Network Add an user account for PPTP logged on user Enable RAS port Select the network protocols from RAS such as IPX, TCP/IP NetBEUI Set the Internet gateway to P-202H Plus v2 o PPTP client setup (Win9x) Add one VPN connection from Dial-Up Networking by entering the correct username & password and the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2's Internet IP address for logging to NT RAS server.

  • Before making a VPN connection from Win9x to WinNT server, you need to connect P-202H Plus v2 router to your ISP first.
  • Enter the IP address of the PPTP server (WinNT server) and the port number for PPTP as shown below. When you have finished the above settings, you can ping to the remote Win9x client from WinNT. This ping command is used to demonstrate that remote the Win9x can be reached across the Internet. If the Internet connection between two LANs is achive, you can place a VPN call from the remote Win9x client. For example: C:\ping 203.66.113.2 When a dial-up connection to ISP is established, a default gateway is assigned to the router traffic through that connection. Therefore, the output below shows the default gateway of the Win95 client after the dial- up connection has been established. Before making a VPN connection from the Win9x client to the NT server, you need to know the exact Internet IP address that the ISP assigns to P- All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 41P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes 202H Plus v2 router in SUA mode and enter this IP address in the VPN dial-up dialog box. You can check this Internet IP address from PNC Monitor or SMT Menu 24.1. If the Internet IP address is a fixed IP address provided by ISP in SUA mode, then you can always use this IP address for reaching the VPN server. In the following example, the IP address '140.113.1.225' is dynamically assigned by ISP. You must enter this IP address in the 'VPN Server' dialog box for reaching the PPTP server. After the VPN link is established, you can start the network protocol application such as IP, IPX and NetBEUI. Configure an Internal Server Behind SUA

  • IntroductionP-202H Plus v2 Support Notes If you wish, you can make internal servers (e.g., Web, ftp or mail server) accessible for outside users, even though SUA makes your LAN appear as a single machine to the outside world. A service is identified by the port number. Also, since you need to specify the IP address of a server in the P-202H Plus v2, a server must have a fixed IP address and not be a DHCP client whose IP address potentially changes each time it is powered on. In addition to the servers for specific services, SUA supports a default server. A service request that does not have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default server. If the default server is not defined, the service request is simply discarded.
  • Configuration To make a server visible to the outside world, specify the port number of the service and the inside address of the server in 'Menu 15', Multiple Server Configuration. The outside users can access the local server using the P-202H Plus v2's WAN IP address which can be obtained from menu 24.1.
  • For example (Configuring an internal Web server for outside access) :
  • Port numbers for some services All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
  • Introduction Generally, SUA makes your LAN appear as a single machine to the outside world. LAN users are invisible to outside users. However, some applications such as Cu-SeeMe, and ICQ will need to connect to the local user behind the P-202H Plus v2. In such case, a SUA server must be entered in menu 15 to forward the incoming packets to the true destination behind SUA. Generally, we do not need extra settings of menu 15 for an outgoing connection. But for some applications we need to configure the menu 15 to make the outgoing connection work. After the required menu 15 settings are completed the internal server or client applications can be accessed by using the P-202H Plus v2's WAN IP address.

Since SUA enables your LAN to appear as a single computer to the Internet, it is not possible to configure similar servers on the same LAN behind SUA.

Because White Pine Cu-SeeMe uses dedicate ports (port 7648 & port 24032) to transmit and receive data, therefore only one local Cu-SeeMe is allowed within the same LAN.

With SUA enabled, NetMeeting users within the same LAN will not be able to connect to the remote NetMeeting user, and as remote users are not able to distinguish between local users with the same internet IP and SUA allows one local NetMeeting user to connect to multiple Internet users at the same time.

Certain Quake servers do not allow multiple users to login using the same unique IP, so only one Quake user will be allowed in this case. Moreover, when a Quake server is configured behind SUA, P-202H Plus v2 will not be able to provide information of that server on the internet.

Quake II has the same limitations as that of Quake I. Notes

1. If a SMTP (port 25) server is configured in menu 15 the POP3 ( port 110)

packets will also be forwarded to the same SMTP server by the P-202H Plus v2 automatically. There is no need to configure additional POP3 server in menu 15. Two ports (25 & 110) must be configured in menu 15 to support both SMTP and POP3 services.

2. NetMeeting, RealPlayer, IP/TV and Quick Time are supported.

Configurations For example, if the workstation operating Cu-SeeMe has an IP of 192.168.1.34, then the default SUA server must be set to 192.168.1.34. The peer Cu-SeeMe user can reach this workstation by using P-202H Plus v2's WAN IP address which can be obtained from menu 24.1.

  • Introduction This configuration note explains how to set up two P-202H Plus v2 routers for a LAN-to-LAN connection. Once the connection is established, the workstations on both LANs will be able to perform any TCP/IP applications (e.g., FTP, Telnet, etc.). There will be three items that you need to set up. These are workstation and the two P-202H Plus v2 routers.
  • Setting up the workstation on both LANs All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

To set up the workstations, you will need to set the following parameters:P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes o IP Address-the IP address assigned to the workstation itself o Subnet Mask-the subnet mask used for your network. Class C networks generally use a 24-bit netmask DNS (Domain Name Server) Address-enter the IP address of the DNS server o Default Gateway-the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2, the default gateway for LAN1 is P-202H Plus v2 1 and for LAN2 is P-202H Plus v2 2. The procedure for configuring these parameters for the workstations may differ depending on the type of TCP/IP networking software you are using on your workstations. If you are unfamiliar with how to set these parameters, you can refer to the technical notes corresponding to your software. For Windows 9x, please go to 'Win9x>Control Panel>Network>TCP/IP-Network Adapter' for finishing the above settings.

  • Setting up the P-202H Plus v2 1 & P-202H Plus v2 2 Before configuring the two remote nodes for this application, you need to complete the following settings first in each P-202H Plus v2. o General Setup in SMT Menu 1-enter the system information. o ISDN Setup in SMT Menu 2- configure the ISDN parameters. o Ethernet Setup in SMT Menu 3-enter the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2 and enable the DHCP server if it is required. o Remote Node Setup in SMT Menu 11

4. Dial-in User Setup

Using an ISDN TA and Win9x Dial-Up Networking you can dial into P-202H Plus v2 router with callback and without callback

  • Introduction This configuration note explains how to set up a workstation using an ISDN TA to connect to the P-202H Plus v2 router. In this configuration, the workstation must have TCP/IP dial-up program installed such as Windows Dial-up Networking to make the call. Once the connection is established, the workstation will be able to All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 53P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes perform any TCP/IP applications (e.g., FTP, Telnet, etc.). There will be two items that you need to set up for this connection. They are the workstation and the P- 202H Plus v2 router.
  • Setting up the Win9x Dial-Up Networking(DUN) To set up the DUN for this connection, you will need to set the following parameters: o Phone number- the phone number of the P-202H Plus v2 router o Internet account-Username and Password o IP Address-the IP address in this case will be dynamically assigned by the P-202H Plus v2. Generally, you should simply enter 0.0.0.0 into the IP address field. o DNS (Domain Name Server) Address- the IP address of the DNS server on the remote LAN. o Default Gateway-the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2. Please find the last three settings in Win9x>Dial-Up Networking>Properties>Server Types>TCP/IP Settings.
  • Setting up the P-202H Plus v2 Before configuring the P-202H Plus v2 for this application, you need to first complete the following settings. o General Setup in SMT menu 1-enter the system information. o ISDN Setup in SMT menu 2-Configure the ISDN number o Ethernet Setup in SMT menu 3-enter the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2 and enable the DHCP server if it is required. To setup the P-202H Plus v2 for this application, make sure you have the following menus configured correctly.

  • The Recv Authen field should be set to the type of authentication protocol you want to use.
  • Since the workstation needs to have its IP address assigned, set the IP Address Supplied By: Dial-in User field to 'No'.
  • Make sure that IP Pool is set to 'Yes'.
  • In IP Start Addr, enter the IP address that you want to assign to the workstation when it dials in. In our example, this would be '192.68.135.10'.
  • All the common properties in Menu 13 will be applied to all dial-in users. Note: If the remote user uses the Win9x to dial in, the Recv Authen must be set to PAP because Windows 9x will not respond to any periodic CHAP challenge sent by the P-202H Plus v2 and will cause the P-202H Plus v2 to drop the call.

3. Edit Dial-in User Setup in SMT menu 14.1

  • Dial-in user without callback Menu 14.1 - Edit Dial-in User User Name= abc Active= Yes Passwd= ********* Callback= No Phone # Supplied by Caller= N/A Callback Phone #= N/A Rem CLID= Idle Timeout= 100 All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 56P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes
  • The User Name and Password fields should be set to the login username and password that the workstation will provide when dialing in to the P- 202H Plus v2. Set the Active field to 'Yes'.
  • Dial-in user with callback Menu 14.1 - Edit Dial-in User User Name= abc Active= Yes Passwd= ********* Callback= Mandatory Phone # Supplied by Caller= Yes Callback Phone #= N/A Rem CLID= Idle Timeout= 100
  • There are two options for the callback, Mandatory and Optional. If the Mandatory is configured, the P-202H Plus v2 router has to callback anyway. If the Optional is configured, the dial-in user will have the chance to cancel the callback.
  • The number for calling back to the dial-in user can be specified by the user during the connection or pre-configured in the Callback Phone # field of the P-202H Plus v2.

How does ZyXEL filter work? Conceptually, there are two categories of filter rules: device and protocol. The Generic filter rules belong to the device category; they act on the raw data from/to LAN and WAN. The IP and IPX filter rules belong to the protocol category; they act on the IP and IPX packets. In order to allow users to specify the local network IP address and port number in the filter rules with SUA connections, the TCP/IP filter function has to be executed before SUA for WAN outgoing packets and after the SUA for WAN incoming IP packets. But at the same time, the Generic filter rules must be applied at the point when the P-202H Plus v2 is receiving and sending the packets; i.e. the ISDN interface. So, the execution sequence has to be changed. The logic flow of the filter is shown in Figure 1 and the sequence of the logic flow for the packet from LAN to WAN is: All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 57P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

1. LAN device and protocol input filter sets.

2. WAN protocol call and output filter sets.

3. If SUA is enabled, SUA converts the source IP address from 192.168.1.33

to 203.205.115.6 and port number from 1023 to 4034.

4. WAN device output and call filter sets.

The sequence of the logic flow for the packet from WAN to LAN is:

5. WAN device input filter sets.

6. If SUA is enabled, SUA converts the destination IP address from

203.205.115.6 to 92.168.1.33 and port number from 4034 to 1023.

7. WAN protocol input filter sets.

8. LAN device and protocol output filter sets.

Generic and TCP/IP (and IPX) filter rules are in different filter sets. The SMT will detect and prevent the mixing of different category rules within any filter set in Menu 21. In the following example, you will receive an error message 'Protocol and device filter rules cannot be active together' if you try to activate a TCP/IP (or IPX) filter rule in a filter set that has already had one or more active Generic filter rules. You will receive the same error if you try to activate a Generic filter rule in a filter set that has already had one or more active TCP/IP (or IPX) filter rules.

Even though SMT will prevent the inconsistency from being entered in ZyNOS, it is unable to resolve the intermixing problems existing in the filter sets that were configured before. Instead, when ZyNOS translates the old configuration into the new format, it will verify the filter rules and log the inconsistencies. Please check the system log (Menu 24.3.1) before putting your device into use. Running the P-202H Plus v2 with wrong filter rules may cause it to keep the ISDN line perpetually active, and/or allow undesired traffic to pass to the outside world, and receive unwanted outside traffic. The first case may incur an enormous ISDN bill; the second may lead to a data security hazard. In order to avoid operational problems later, the P-202H Plus v2 will disable its routing/bridging functions if there is an inconsistency among its filter rules. How do I know what packet is triggering the call? If the user already knows the protocol type, the source port and the IP address of the packet that is triggering the call, he can design the filter rule based on these information. Otherwise, he can take a look at the SMT Menu 24.1 to see what is the exact packet that triggers the outgoing call. The 'LAN Packet Which Triggered Last Call' status in Menu 24.1 will show you the packet which triggers the call. A display of the header of the packets is shown next.

  • Introduction The P-202H Plus v2 supports the firmware and configuration files upload using FTP connections via LAN and WAN. So, it is possible that anyone can make a FTP connection over the Internet to your P-202H Plus v2. To prevent outside users from connecting to your P-202H Plus v2 via FTP, you can configure a filter to block FTP connections from WAN.
  • Before you begin Before configuring a filter, you need to know the following information:

1. The inbound packet type (protocol & port number): In this case, it is

TCP(06) protocol with port 20 or 21.

2. The source IP address: In this case, we block all connections from

outside so the source IP is 0.0.0.0.

3. The destination IP address: It is the P-202H Plus v2's IP address, but it

is not available in SUA case since most WAN IP address is dynamically assigned by the ISP. So, we can only enter 0.0.0.0 as the destination IP in the filter rule. Once 0.0.0.0 is set as the destination IP, no FTP connections are allowed to reach the P-202H Plus v2 nor the FTP server on the LAN. For the LAN-to-LAN connection, you enter the P-202H Plus v2's LAN IP as the destination IP in the filter rule. After the FTP filter is applied to the remote node, it only blocks the FTP connection to the P- 202H Plus v2 but still permits the FTP connection to the local FTP server.

  • Configuration o Create a filter set in Menu 21, e.g., set 3 o Create two filter rules in Menu 21.3.1 and Menu 21.3.2 Rule 1- block the inbound FTP packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number 20 Rule 2- block the inbound FTP packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number 21 o Apply the filter set in remote node, Menu 11
  • Create a filter set in Menu 21
  • Rule 2- block the inbound FTP packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number
  • When two rules are completed, you can see the rule summary in Menu
  • Put the filter set number '3' to the 'Input Protocol Filter Set' in menu

11.5 for activating the FTP_WAN filter.

  • Introduction If you want to avoid the outbound Web request to trigger a call to the remote web server, you can configure a call filter set in P-202H Plus v2 to block this packet. After the call filter is applied, the Web packet will not triggered the call to your ISP or remote node. However, when the call is trigger by the other packets and the Internet connection is established, the workstations then are able to access the Web page.
  • Configuration Before configuring a filter, you need to know the following information:

1. The outbound packet type (protocol & port number)

2. The source IP address

Generally, the outbound packets for Web service could be as following: a. HTTP packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number 80 b. DNS packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number 53 or c. DNS packet, UDP (17) protocol with port number 53 For all workstation on the LAN, the source IP address will be 0.0.0.0. Otherwise, you have to enter an IP Address for the workstation you want to block. See the procedure for configuring this filter below. o Create a filter set in Menu 21, e.g., set 1 o Create three filter rules in Menu 21.1.1, Menu 21.1.2, Menu 21.1.3 Rule 1- block the HTTP packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number 80 Rule 2- block the DNS packet, TCP (06) protocol with port number 53 Rule 3- block the DNS packet, UDP (17) protocol with port number 53 o Apply the filter set in remote node, Menu 11

  • Introduction If you want to forbid a specific local client from triggering a call to ISP, you can configure a call filter set in P-202H Plus v2 to block the packets from this client. After the call filter is applied, the packet that is sent from this client would not trigger the call to your ISP or remote node. As long as the call is triggered by the other clients and the Internet connection is established, this workstation will be able to access the Internet or remote node.

  • Configurations From the above first trace, we know that a client is trying to ping the P-202H Plus v2 router. And from the second trace, we know that the P-202H Plus v2 router will send a reply to the client accordingly. The following sample filter will utilize the 'Generic Filter Rule' to block the MAC address [00 80 c8 4c ea 63].

1. First, from the incoming LAN packet we know that the unwanted source MAC

address starts at the 7th Octet TIME: 37c060 enet0-RECV len:74 call=0 0000: [00 a0 c5 01 23 45] [00 80 c8 4c ea 63] 08 00 45 00 0010: 00 3c eb 0c 00 00 20 01 e3 ea ca 84 9b 5d ca 84 0020: 9b 63 08 00 45 5c 03 00 05 00 61 62 63 64 65 66 0030: 67 68 69 6a 6b 6c 6d 6e 6f 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 0040: 77 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69

2. We are now ready to configure the 'Generic Filter Rule' as below.

  • Active: Turn 'Active' to 'Yes'
  • Offset (in bytes): Set to '6' since the source MAC address starts at 7th octets we need to skip the first octets of the destination MAC address. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
  • Length (in bytes): Set to '6' since MAC address has 6 octets.P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes
  • Mask (in hexadecimal): Specify the value that the P-202H Plus v2 will logically qualify (logical AND) the data in the packet. Since the Length is set to 6 octets the Mask for it should be 12 hexadecimal numbers. In this case, we intent to set to 'ffffffffffff' to mask the incoming source MAC address, [00 80 c8 4c ea 63].
  • Value (in hexadecimal): Specify the MAC address [00 80 c8 4c ea 63] that the P-202H Plus v2 should use to compare with the masked packet. If the result from the masked packet matches the 'Value', then the packet is considered matched.
  • Action Matched= : Enter the action you want if the masked packet matches the 'Value'. In this case, we will drop it.
  • Action Not Matched= : Enter the action you want if the masked packet does not match the 'Value'. In this case, we will forward it. If you want to configure more rules please select 'Check Next Rule' to start configuring the next new rule. However, please note that the 'Filter Type' must be also 'Generic Filter Rule' but not others. Because the Generic and TCP/IP (IPX) filter rules must be in different filter sets.

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

6. Terminal Portability(Suspend/Resume)

Most supplementary services are not free, please check with your telephone company for the services they offer. How do I do call waiting/call hold/call retrieve?

  • Put your current call on hold and answer the incoming call - after hearing the call waiting tone, press and immediately release the Flash button on your telephone.
  • Put your current call on hold and switch to another call - press and immediately release the Flash button on your telephone.
  • Hang up your current call before answering the incoming call - hang up the phone and wait for answering the incoming call.
  • Hang up the current active call and switch back to the other call - hang up and wait for the phone to ring. Then pick up the phone to return to the other call. Why doesn't call waiting work as expected? An incoming caller will receive a busy signal if:
  • You have two calls active (one active and one on hold; or both active by using Three-Way Calling).
  • You are dialing a number on the B channel the incoming caller is attempting to reach, but have not yet established a connection. If no action is taken to answer the call (call waiting indicator tone is ignored), the call waiting tones will disappear after about 20 seconds. How do I do three way calling?
  • Press the Flash key to put the existing call on hold and receive a dial tone.
  • Dial the third party's phone number.
  • When you are ready to conference the call together, press the Flash key again to establish a three way conference call. How do I remove a party from the three-way calling? Simply press the Flash key. The last call that was added to the conference is dropped. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 96P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes If you hang up your telephone during a three-way call and the two other callers remain on the line, the ISDN network will do an implicit transfer to directly connect the two remaining callers together. How do I do call transfer? Call Transfer allows you to transfer an active call to a third party. This service must be subscribed from your telephone company. Transferring an active call to a third party:
  • Once you have an active call (Caller A), press Flash key to put Caller A on hold and receive a dial tone.
  • Dial the third party's phone number (Caller B).
  • When you are ready to conference the two calls together, press Flash key to a Three-Way Conference call.
  • Hang up the phone. The ISDN network does an implicit transfer to directly connect Caller A with Caller B. How do I blind call transfer?
  • Once you have an active call (Caller A), press Flash key to put the existing call on hold and receive a dial tone.
  • Dial the third party's phone number (Caller B).
  • Before Caller B picks up the call, you can transfer the call by pressing the Flash key. The call is automatically transferred. What is call forwarding and how do I do it? The call forwarding means the switch will ring another number at a place where you will be when sometime dials your directory number. There are two methods to active call forwarding, either method should work fine and you can use whichever one you are most comfortable. The first is exactly the same as on an analog line, i.e., you pick up the handset and dial the access code assign by your telephone company and the number that you want the calls forwarded. Check with your telephone company for this access code. The second is with the 'phone flash' commands where you pick up the handset and press the flash key before dialing the following: Command Meaning *20*forward-number# Active CFB (Call Forwarding Busy) *21*forward-number# Active CFU (Call Forwarding All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 97P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Unconditional) *22*forward-number# Active CFNR (Call Forwarding No Reply #20# Deactive CFB #21# Deactive CFU #22# Deactive CFNR How do I suspend/resume a phone call (terminal portability)? The Terminal Portability service allows you to suspend a phone call temporarily. You can then resume this call later, at another location if you so wish. To suspend an active phone call:
  • Press the flash key twice.
  • Dial *3n*#, where n is any number from 1 to 9. To resume your phone call:
  • Reconnect at a (n) (ISDN) telephone that is linked to the same S/T interface (Network Terminator-1, NT1) where you suspended the call.
  • Pick up the handset and press the Flash key
  • Dial #3n#, where n is any number from 1 to 9, but should be identical to that used above. What is reminder ring? The P-202H Plus v2 sends a single short ring to your telephone every time a call has been forwarded(US switches only). What is MSN/subaddress and how do I do it? Depending on your location, you may have Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN) where the telephone company gives you more than one number for your ISDN line. You can assign each number to a different port, e.g., the first number to data calls, the second to A/B adapter 1 and so on. Or (DSS1) the telephone company may give you only one number, but allow you to assign your own subaddresses to different ports, e.g., subaddress 1 to data calls and 2 to A/B adapter 1.
  • What is NetCAPI ? All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 98P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The P-202H Plus v2 202H Plus supports the ISDN Device Control Protocol (ISDN-DCP) from RVS-COM. The ISDN-DCP allows a workstation on the LAN to run some CAPI applications. These applications include FAX, Voice, File transfer. Using ISDN-DCP, the P-202H Plus v2 202H Plus behaves as a DCP server which listens for DCP messages on TCP port number 2578 on its LAN port and we call this feature as NetCAPI. When the P-202H Plus v2 receives a DCP message from a DCP client (running RVS-COM software), the P-202H Plus v2 sends the confirmation message to the client and sends ISDN packets through the BRI port. When the P-202H Plus v2 receives packets on its BRI port destined for one of the DCP clients, the router formats the packet as a DCP message and sends it to the corresponding client.

3. Incoming Data Call Matching: This setting helps the P-202H Plus v2 to

forward the incoming call correctly by checking the MSN or subaddress that the remote party calls. MSN: When this option is selected, the P-202H Plus v2 checks the MSN called by the remote party. If the MSN matches the one configured in menu 2, ISDN Data Number, the P-202H Plus v2 will answer the call as a data call. If the MSN does not match any MSN in menu 2, the P-202H Plus v2 will answer the call as a CAPI call and forward it to the CAPI client. Subaddress: When this option is selected, the P-202H Plus v2 checks the subaddress called by the remote party. If the subaddress matches the one configured in menu 2, ISDN Data Number, the P-202H Plus v2 will answer the call as a data call. If the subaddress does not match any subaddress in menu 2, the P- 202H Plus v2 will answer the call as a CAPI call and forward it to the CAPI client. NetCAPI: When this option is selected, the P-202H Plus v2 always answers the call as a CAPI call and forward it to the CAPI client.

4. Access List: Enter the IP range of the valid NetCAPI clients with desired

operation direction. Operation=Incoming: this permits the clients in this IP range to only answer calls. Operation=Outgoing: this permits the clients in this IP range to only place calls. Operation=Both: this permits the clients in this IP range to both place and answer calls. Operation=None: this means no calls for the clients in this IP range are allowed.

5. Start IP: Refers to the first IP address of a group of NetCAPI clients. Each

group contains contigunous IP addresses.

6. End IP: Refers to the last IP address in a NetCAPI client group.

7. Operation: Call control settings for the NetCAPI users

Incoming: When this option is selected, the NetCAPI users have permission to only accecpt incoming calls. Outgoing: When this option is selected, the NetCAPI users have permission to only place outgoing calls. Both: When this option is selected, the NetCAPI users have permission for both answering and placing calls. None: When this option is selected, no calls are allowed for the NetCAPI users.

  • What is RADIUS? A Network Access Server (NAS, e.g., a Router) operates as a client of RADIUS. The RADIUS client is responsible for passing user information to designated RADIUS servers, and then acting on the response which is returned. RADIUS servers are responsible for receiving user connection requests, authenticating the user, and then returning all configuration information necessary for the client to deliver service to the user. Transactions between the client and RADIUS server are authenticated through the use of a shared secret, which is never sent over the network. In addition, any user passwords are sent encrypted between the client and RADIUS server, to eliminate the possibility that someone snooping on an unsecured network could determine a user's password. There has been some confusion in the assignment of port numbers for this protocol. The early deployment of RADIUS was done using the erroneously chosen port number 1645, which conflicts with the "datametrics" service. The officially assigned port number for RADIUS is 1812. So, be sure which port your RADIUS server uses before configuring it in the P-202H Plus v2. [Note]: The P-202H Plus v2 is configured with default port 1645, please reboot the P-202H Plus v2 it is changed to 1812.

1. Get Radius application S/W and install it first.

2. If the callback feature is required, please add the following ZyXEL

proprietary attributes in the 'Dictionary' file which generally locates in the Radius installation folder. Please note, when editing RADIUS files some RADIUS servers do not suggest DOS Editor or Notepad. So, you can try Wordpad instead.

3. Enter the RADIUS client IP and the encrypted key in the 'Clients' file. See an

example below. # This file contains a list of clients which are allowed to make # authentication requests and their encryption key. # The first field is a valid hostname for the client. # The second field (separated by blanks or tabs) is the encryption key.

In this example, the new client 203.66.113.187 is the P-202H Plus v2 router. The key 'key187' must be configured in SMT Menu 23.2 later..

4. Enter the user profile including username and password in the 'Users' file. See

an example below. # Example 1: PPP user without callback.

# Example 2: PPP user with Callback.

5. Run "RADIUS.EXE -X15" to turn on the RADIUS service.

  • P-202H Plus v2 Setup Menu 23.2 - System Security - External Server Authentication Server: Active= Yes Type= RADIUS Server Address= 203.66.113.10 Port #= 1645 Key= key187 Key Settings: o Server Address--------Enter the IP address of the RADIUS server.

Reboot the P-202H Plus v2, if it is changed to 1812. o Key-------------------The key must be the same with the one configured in the 'Clients' file.

6. Please check there is no duplicate user setting in SMT menu 14 compared to

the 'Users' file in step 4.

11. Using CLID Callback

  • What is CLID Callback? CLID stands for Calling Line Identification (i.e., calling parting number) which can be used by the ISDN CPE to call back without answering the call. The phone number used for calling back is captured from the D channel message. So, if your local ISDN switch is able to carry the calling party number, the P-202H Plus v2 can use this phone number to call back to the remote party. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.

There are two types of callback that the P-202H Plus v2 supports, they are the CLID callback and MS CBCP callback using Dial-Up Networking. Unlike the CLID callback, when using the MS CBCP callback the CPE must answer the first call to get the remote phone number from PPP CBCP negotiation and then call back to the remote party after hanging up the first call. In such a case, the remote party has to pay for the first phone call. While using the CLID callback, the remote party does not have to pay for the first call since the call is not answered. Therefore, you can not use Dial-Up Networking for the CLID callback since it does not support the CLID callback.P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes When calling back to a remote node the outgoing user information (username and password) are configured in menu 11.1, Remote Node Profile.

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an applications-layer protocol used to exchange the management information between network devices (e.g., routers). By using SNMP, network administrators can more easily manage network performance, find and solve network problems. The SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite, it uses the UDP to exchange messages between a management Client and an Agent, residing in a network node. There are two versions of SNMP: Version 1 and Version 2. ZyXEL supports SNMPv1. Most of the changes introduced in Version 2 increase SNMP's security capabilities. SNMP encompasses three main areas:

1. A small set of management operations.

2. Definitions of management variables.

3. Data representation.

The operations allowed are: Get, GetNext, Set, and Trap. These functions operates on variables that exist in network nodes. Examples of variables include statistic counters, node port status, and so on. All of the SNMP management functions are carried out through these simple operations. No action operations are available, but these can be simulated by the setting of flag variables. For example, to reset a node, a counter variable named 'time to reset' could be set to a value, causing the node to reset after the time had elapsed. SNMP variables are defined using the OSI Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1). ASN.1 specifies how a variable is encoded in a transmitted data frame; it is very powerful because the encoded data is self-defining. For example, the encoding of a text string includes an indication that the data unit is a string, along with its length and value. ASN.1 is a flexible way of defining protocols, especially for network management protocols where nodes may support different sets of manageable variables. The net of variables that each node supports is called the Management Information Base (MIB). The MIB is made up of several parts, including the Standard MIB, specified as part of SNMP, and Enterprise Specific MIB, which are defined by different manufacturer for hardware specific management. The current Internet-standard MIB, MIB-II, is defined in RFC 1213 and contains 171 objects. These objects are grouped by protocol (including TCP, IP, UDP, SNMP, and other categories, including 'system' and 'interface.' All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 110P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The Internet Management Model is as shown in figure 1. Interactions between the NMS and managed devices can be any of four different types of commands:

Read is used to monitor the managed devices, NMSs read variables that are maintained by the devices.

Write is used to control the managed devices, NMSs write variables that are stored in the managed devices.

3. Traversal operations

NMSs use these operations to determine which variables a managed device supports and to sequentially gather information from variable tables (such as IP routing table) in managed devices.

The managed devices to asynchronously report certain events to NMSs use trap. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 111P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol. 4 SNMPv1 operations are defined as below.

  • Get Allows the NMS to retrieve an object variable from the agent.
  • GetNext Allows the NMS to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a NMS 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 NMS to set values for object variables within an agent.
  • Trap Used by the agent to inform the NMS of some events. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 112P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The SNMPv1 messages contains two part. The first part contains a version and a community name. The second part contains the actual SNMP protocol data unit (PDU) specifying the operation to be performed (Get, Set, and so on) and the object values involved in the operation. The following figure shows the SNMPv1 message format. The SNMP PDU contains the following fields:
  • PDU type Specifies the type of PDU.
  • Request ID Associates requests with responses.
  • Variable-bindings Associates particular object with their value.

2. ZyXEL SNMP Implementation

ZyXEL currently includes SNMP support in some P-202H Plus v2 routers. It is implemented based on the SNMPv1, so it will be able to communicate with SNMPv1 NMSs. Further, users can also add ZyXEL's private MIB in the NMS to monitor and control additional system variables. The ZyXEL's private MIB tree is shown in figure 3. For SNMPv1 operation, ZyXEL permits one community string so that the router can belong to only one community and allows trap messages to be sent to only one NMS manager. Some traps are sent to the SNMP manager when anyone of the following events happens: All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 113P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

1. coldStart (defined in RFC-1215) :

If the machine coldstarts, the trap will be sent after booting.

2. warmStart (defined in RFC-1215) :

If the machine warmstarts, the trap will be sent after booting.

3. linkDown (defined in RFC-1215) :

If any link of IDSL or WAN is down, the trap will be sent with the port number . The port number is its interface index under the interface group.

4. linkUp (defined in RFC-1215) :

If any link of IDSL or WAN is up, the trap will be sent with the port number . The port number is its interface index under the interface group.

5. authenticationFailure (defined in RFC-1215) :

When receiving any SNMP get or set requirement with wrong community, this trap is sent to the manager.

6. whyReboot (defined in ZYXEL-MIB) :

When the system is going to restart (warmstart), the trap will be sent with the reason of restart before rebooting. (i) For intentional reboot : In some cases (download new files, CI command "sys reboot", ...), reboot is done intentionally. And traps with the message "System reboot by user !" will be sent. (ii) For fatal error : System has to reboot for some fatal errors. And traps with the message of the fatal code will be sent.

3. Address Mapping Sets and NAT Server Sets

2. Internet Access with an Internal Server

3. Using Multiple Global IP addresses for clients and servers

4. Support Non NAT Friendly Applications

  • What is Multi-NAT? NAT (Network Address Translation-NAT RFC 1631) is the translation of an Internet Protocol address used within one network to a different IP address known within another network. One network is designated the inside network and the other is the outside. Typically, a company maps its local inside network addresses to one or more global outside IP addresses and "unmaps" the global IP addresses on incoming packets back into local IP addresses. The IP addresses for the NAT can be either fixed or dynamically assigned by the ISP. In addition, you can designate servers, e.g., a web server and a telnet server, on your local network and make them accessible to the outside world. If you do not define any servers, NAT offers the additional benefit of firewall protection. In such case, all incoming connections to your network will be filtered out by the P-202H Plus v2, thus preventing intruders from probing your network. The SUA feature that the P-202H Plus v2 supports previously operates by mapping the private IP addresses to a global IP address. It is only one subset of the NAT. The ZyNOS V2.41 for the P-202H Plus v2 100IH is enhanced to support the most of the features of the NAT based on RFC 1631, and we call this feature as 'Multi-NAT'. For more information on IP address translation, please refer to RFC 1631, The IP Network Address Translator (NAT).
  • How NAT works If we define the local IP addresses as the Internal Local Addresses (ILA) and the global IP addresses as the Inside Global Address (IGA), see the following figure. The term "inside' refers to the set of networks that are subject to translation. NAT operates by mapping the ILA to the IGA required for communication with hosts on other networks. It replaces the original IP source address (and TCP or UDP source port numbers) and then forwards each packet to the Internet ISP, thus making them appear as if they had come from the NAT system itself (e.g., the P- 202H Plus v2 router). The P-202H Plus v2 keeps track of the original addresses and port numbers so incoming reply packets can have their original values restored. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 117P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes
  • NAT Mapping Types NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are:

In One-to-One mode, the P-202H Plus v2 maps one ILA to one IGA.

In Many-to-One mode, the P-202H Plus v2 maps multiple ILA to one IGA. This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port address translation), ZyXEL's Single User Account feature that previous ZyNOS routers supported (the SUA only option in today's routers).

3. Many to Many Overload

In Many-to-Many Overload mode, the P-202H Plus v2 maps the multiple ILA to shared IGA.

4. Many to Many No Overload

In Many-to-Many No Overload mode, the P-202H Plus v2 maps each ILA to unique IGA.

In Server mode, the P-202H Plus v2 maps multiple inside servers to one global IP address. This allows us to specify multiple servers of different types behind the NAT for outside access. Note, if you want to map each server to one unique IGA please use the One-to-One mode. The following table summarizes these types. NAT Type IP Mapping One-to-One ILA1<--->IGA1 Many-to-One (SUA/PAT)

  • SUA Versus NAT SUA (Single User Account) in previous ZyNOS versions is a NAT set with 2 rules, Many-to-One and Server. The P-202H Plus v2 now has Full Feature NAT support to map global IP addresses to local IP addresses of clients or servers. With multiple global IP addresses, multiple severs of the same type (e.g., FTP servers) are allowed on the LAN for outside access. In previous ZyNOS versions (that supported SUA 'visible' servers had to be of different types. The P-202H Plus v2 supports NAT sets on a remote node basis. They are reusable, but only one set is allowed for each remote node. The P-202H Plus v2 312 supports 2 sets since there is only one remote node. The default SUA (Read Only) Set in menu 15.1 is a convenient, pre-configured, read only, Many-to-One mapping set, sufficient for most purposes and helpful to people already familiar with SUA in previous ZyNOS versions.

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 121P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Use the Address Mapping Sets menus and submenus to create the mapping table used to assign global addresses to LAN clients. Each remote node must specify which NAT Address Mapping Set to use. The P312 has one remote node and so allows you to configure only 1 NAT Address Mapping Set. You can see two NAT Address Mapping sets in Menu 15.1. You can only configure Set 1. Set 255 is used for SUA. When you select Full Feature in menu 4 or 11.3, the SMT will use Set1. When you select SUA Only, the SMT will use Set 255. For the P100IH, there are 8 remote nodes and so allows you to configure 8 NAT Address Mapping Sets. The NAT Server Set is a list of LAN side servers mapped to external ports. To use this set (one set for the P312), a server rule must be set up inside the NAT Address Mapping set.

  • NAT Server Sets The NAT Server Set is a list of LAN side servers mapped to external ports (similar to the old SUA menu of before). If you wish, you can make inside servers for different services, e.g., Web or FTP, visible to the outside users, even though NAT makes your network appears as a single machine to the outside world. A server is identified by the port number, e.g., Web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. As an example (see the following figure), if you have a Web server at

192.168.1.36 and a FTP server at 192.168.1.33, then you need to specify for port

80 (Web) the server at IP address 192.168.1.36 and for port 21 (FTP) another at IP address 192.168.1.33. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 126P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Please note that a server can support more than one service, e.g., a server can provide both FTP and Mail service, while another provides only Web service. The following procedures show how to configure a server behind NAT. Step 1. Enter 15 in the Main Menu to go to Menu 15-NAT Setup. Step 2. Enter 2 to go to Menu 15.2-NAT Server Setup. Step 3. Enter the service port number in the Port# field and the inside IP address of the server in the IP Address field. Step 4.

3. Using Multiple Global IP addresses for clients and servers (One-to-One,

Many-to-One, Server Set mapping types are used) In this case we have 3 IGAs (IGA1, IGA2 and IGA3) from the ISP. We have two very busy internal FTP servers and also an internal general server for the web and mail. In this case, we want to assign the 3 IGAs by the following way using 4 NAT rules. Rule 1 (One-to-One type) to map the FTP Server 1 with ILA1 (192.168.1.10) to IGA1. Rule 2 (One-to-One type) to map the FTP Server 2 with ILA2 (192.168.1.11) to IGA2. Rule 3 (Many-to-One type) to map the other clients to IGA3. Rule 4 (Server type) to map a web server and mail server with ILA3 (192.168.1.20) to IGA3. Type Server allows us to specify multiple servers, of different types, to other machines behind NAT on the LAN. Step 1: In this case, we need to configure Address Mapping Set 1 from Menu 15.1- Address Mapping Sets. Therefore we must choose the Full Feature option from the NAT field in menu 4 or menu 11.3.

What is IPSec? IPSec is a set of IP extensions developed by IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) to provide security services compatible with the existing IP standard (IPv.4) and also the upcoming one(IPv.6). In addition, IPSec can protect any protocol that runs on top of IP, for instance TCP, UDP, and ICMP. IPSec is truly the most extensible and complete network security solution. IPSec which is based on modern cryptographic technologies enables end-to-end security so that every single piece of information sent to or from a computer can be secured. It can also be deployed inside a network to form Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) where two distincts and disparate networks become one by connecting them with a tunnel secured by IPSec. Tunnel mode IPSec in tunnel mode is normally used when the ultimate destination of the packet is different from the security termination point. We introduce two tunnel mode examples:

Note: The following configurations are supposed both two VPN gateways have fixed IP addresses. If one of VPN gateways uses dynamic IP, we enter 0.0.0.0 as the secure gateway IP address. In this case, the VPN connection can only be initiated from dynamic side to fixed side to update its dynamic IP to the fixed side. However, if both gateways use dynamic IP addresses, it is no way to establish VPN connection at all.

IP addresses. If one of VPN gateways uses dynamic IP, we enter 0.0.0.0 as the secure gateway IP address. In this case, the VPN connection can only be initiated from dynamic side to fixed side to update its dynamic IP to the fixed side. From this connection, the source IP is obtained and then update to the previous

0.0.0.0 field. However, if both gateways use dynamic IP addresses, it is no way

to establish VPN connection at all. If the WAN IP of P-202H Plus v2 is also dynamic IP, we enter 0.0.0.0 as its My IP Address. When this IP is given by ISP, it will update to this field.

- Create IPSec Policy Typically, Windows 2000 gateway is not a member of a domain, so a local IPSec policy is created. If your Windows 2000 gateway is a member of a domain that already exists an local IPSec policy. In this case, you can create an Organization Unit (OU) in Active Directory to make your WIN2K as a member of this OU by assigning the IPSec policy to the Group Policy Object (GPO) of this OU. For more information, please refer to the Assigning IPSec Policy section of Windows 2000 online help.

The IPSec tunnel consists of two rules, each of which specifies a tunnel endpoint. Because there are two endpoints so we need two filter rules. One is for the direction from PC 1 to PC 2 (endpoint is P-202H Plus v2), and the other is from PC 2 to PC 1 (endpoint is WIN2K). In each rule, a source IP and destination IP for local and remote VPN clients (PC 1 or PC 2) are required. See the guides below. - Build a Filter List from PC 1 to PC 2

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 346P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes Some tips for this application: Generally, without IPSec, to configure an internal server for outside access, we need to configure the server private IP and its service port in SUA/NAT Server Table. The NAT router then will forward the incoming connections to the internal server according to the service port and private IP entered in SUA/NAT Server Table. However, if both NAT and IPSec is enabled in P-202H Plus v2, the edit of the table is necessary only if the connection is a non-secure connections. For secure connections, none SUA server settings are required since private IP is reachable in the VPN case. Remember, IPSec is an IP-in-IP encapsulation, the internal IP header is not translated by NAT. For example: Internal Server----P-202H Plus v2(NAT+IPSec)-----ADSL Modem----Internet---- Remote Network

5. VPN Routing between Branch Offices

This page guides us how to setup VPN routing between branch offices through headquarter. So that whenever branch office A wants to talk to branch office B, headquarter plays as a VPN relay. Users can gain benefit from such application when the scale of branch offices is very large, because no additional VPN tunnels between branch offices are needed. In this support note, we skip the detailed configuration steps for Internet access and presume that you are familiar with basic ZyNOS VPN configuration. As the figure shown below, each branch office have a VPN tunnel to headquarter, thus PCs in branch offices can access systems in headquarter via the tunnel. Through VPN routing, P-202H Plus v2 series now provide you a solution to let PCs in branch offices talk to each other through the existing VPN tunnels concentrated on the headquarter. This feature is available in P-202H Plus v210, P-202H Plus v250 and P-202H Plus v2100. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 347P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The IP addresses we use in this example are as shown below. Branch_A Headquarter Branch_B WAN:202.3.1.1 LAN:192.168.3.1 WAN:202.1.1.1 LAN:192.168.1.1 WAN:202.2.1.1 LAN:192.168.2.1 LAN of Branch_A LAN of Headquarter LAN of Branch_B

192.168.3.0/24 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.0/24

1. Setup VPN in branch office A

Because VPN routing enables branch offices to talk to each other via tunnels concentrated on headquarter. In this step, we configure an IPSec rule in P-202H Plus v2 (Branch_A) for PCs behind branch office A to access both LAN segments of headquarter and branch office B. Because the LAN segments of headquarter and branch office B are continuous, we merge them into one single rule by including these two segments in Remote section. If by any chance, the two segments are not continuous, we strongly recommend you to setup different rules for these segments.

1. Click Advanced, and click VPN tab on the left.

2. On the SUMMARY menu, Select a policy to edit by clicking Edit.

4. Give this VPN rule a name, Branch_A.

2. Setup VPN in branch office B

Be very careful about the remote IP address in branch office B, because for systems behind branch office B want to systems behind branch office A and headquarter, we have to specify these two segments in Remote section. However if we include these two segments in one rule, the LAN segment of branch office B will be also included in this single rule, which means intercommunication inside branch office B will run into VPN tunnel. To avoid such situation, we need two separate rules to cover the LAN segment of branch office A and headquarter.

1. Using ZyXEL ISDN D Channel Analyzer, EPA

Introduction An ISDN call connection failure can be diagnosed by using P-202H Plus v2's ISDN embedded protocol analyzer (EPA). The cause code in the EPA log can also help us to diagnose the disconnection of an ISDN call. Using EPA Analyzer You must connect the P-202H Plus v2 to a terminal program via the serial port to capture the EPA. The EPA will not operate by Telnet. The steps for enabling the EPA are as follows:

1. Enter to SMT Menu 11 and note which node N you will be dialing

2. Enter to SMT Menu 24.8

3. Enable the EPA capture capability by:

P-202H Plus v2>isdn fw ana on

4. Manually dial to remote node N

P-202H Plus v2>dev dial N (N is the node number in Menu 11)

5. Wait for all progress messages, and manually drop the call:

P-202H Plus v2>dev channel drop [bri0|bri1|all] (bri0 for B1 channel, bri1 for B2 channel, all for all channels)

6. Turn off the EPA by:

Introduction The P-202H Plus v2 supports the trace of PPP log, that we can diagnose from the trace by referring to the PPP numbers or use the ZPKTTOOL to interpret for us. P-202H Plus v2 ZPKTTOOL tool is a DOS utility that interprets the dump of the PPP log in P-202H Plus v2. A PPP call connection failure can be diagnosed by using P-202H Plus v2's PPP protocol analyzer. Using PPP Protocol Analyzer You must connect the P-202H Plus v2 to a terminal program via the serial port to capture the PPP log. The PPP log will not operate by Telnet. The steps for capturing the PPP log are as follows:

3. LAN/WAN Packet Trace

The P-202H Plus v2 records packet trace and analyzes packets running on LAN and WAN interfaces. It is designed for users with technical backgrounds who are interested in the details of the packet flow on LAN or WAN end of the P-202H Plus v2. It is also very helpful for diagnostics if you have compatibility problems with your ISP or if you want to know the details of a packet for configuring a filter rule. The format of the display is as following: Packet:

0 11880.160 ENET0-R[0062] TCP 192.168.1.2:1108->192.31.7.130:80

[index] [timer/second][channel-receive/transmit][length] [protocol] [sourceIP/port] [destIP/port] There are two ways to dump the trace:

1. Online Trace--display the trace real time on screen

2. Offline Trace--capture the trace first and display later

5. Using FTP to Upload Firmware and Configuration Files

In addition to upload the firmware and configuration file via the console port and TFTP client, you can also upload the firmware and configuration files to the P- 202H Plus v2 202 using FTP. To use this feature, your workstation must have a FTP client software. There are two examples as shown below.

1. Using FTP command in terminal

Step 1 Use FTP client from your workstation to connect to the P-202H Plus v2 by entering the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2. Step

Press 'Enter' key to ignore the username, because the P-202H Plus v2 does not check the username. Step 3 Enter the SMT password as the FTP login password, the default is '1234'. Step 4 Enter command 'bin' to set the transfer type to binary. Step 5 Use 'put' command to transfer the file to the P-202H Plus v2. Note: The remote file name for the firmware is 'ras' and for the configuration file is 'rom-0' (rom-zero, not capital o). Example: C:\temp>ftp 202.132.155.97 Connected to 202.132.155.97. 220 FTP version 1.0 ready at Thu Jan 1 00:02:09 1970 User (202.132.155.97:(none)): <Enter> 331 Enter PASS command Password:**** 230 Logged in ftp> bin 200 Type I OK ftp> put p202e.bin ras 200 Port command okay 150 Opening data connection for STOR ras 226 File received OK ftp: 924512 bytes sent in 4.83Seconds 191.41Kbytes/sec. ftp> Here, the 'p202e.bin' is the local file and 'ras' is the remote file that will be saved in the P-202H Plus v2. All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 385P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes The P-202H Plus v2 reboots automatically after the uploading is finished.

Rename the local firmware and configuration files to 'ras' and 'rom-0', because we can not specify the remote file name in the FTP client software. Step

Use FTP client from your workstation to connect to the P-202H Plus v2 by entering the IP address of the P-202H Plus v2. Step

Enter the SMT password as the FTP login password. The default is '1234'. Step

Press 'OK' key to ignore the username, because the P-202H Plus v2 does not check the username. Example:

1. Connect to the P-202H Plus v2 by entering the P-202H Plus v2's IP and SMT

password in the FTP software. Set the transfer type to 'Auto-Detect' or 'Binary'.

All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 386P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes

2. Press 'OK' to ignore the 'Username' prompt.

3. To upload the firmware file, we transfer the local 'ras' file to overwrite the

remote 'ras' file. To upload the configuration file, we transfer the local 'rom-0' to overwrite the remote 'rom-0' file.

4.The P-202H Plus v2 reboots automatically after the uploading is finished.

  • routing table problem
  • the packet has been filtered
  • cannot trigger the outcall or the outcall failed due to the reason stated in previous chapter ( Incoming only remote node, Black List, Call Budget, or PPP negotiation failed. ) Steps to verify IP routing problem (1) check if there is any routing error ('ip route errcnt disp'). (2) check if the counter of the specified route increased ('ip route status'). (3) check if any filter counter increased ('sys filter disp'). (4) check if there is any LAN or WAN problem ( refer to sessions: LAN or WAN connection) All contents copyright © 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. 401P-202H Plus v2 Support Notes < Example >

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Data Link Layer [146,147,175] contains a 16 bit Protocol field to identify the encapsulated protocol. The Protocol field is consistent with the ISO 3309 (HDLC) extension mechanism for Address fields. All Protocols MUST be assigned such that the least significant bit of the most significant octet equals "0", and the least significant bit of the least significant octet equals "1".
