NAT break the originally envisioned model of IP end-to-end connectivity across the internet so NAT can cause problems where IPSec/ PPTP encryption is applied or some application layer protocols such as SIP phones are located behind a NAT. And NAT makes it difficult for systems behind a NAT to accept incoming communications. In this session, there are “VPN Passthrough”, “SIP ALG”, “DMZ” and “Virtual Server” provided to solve these nasty problems.  NAT Status: Enabled. It depends on ISP Connection Type in Internet settings. VPN Passthrough: VPN pass-through is a feature of routers which allows VPN client on a private network to establish outbound VPNs unhindered. SIP ALG: Enable the SIP ALG when SIP phone needs ALG to pass through the NAT. Disable the SIP ALG when SIP phone includes NAT-Traversal algorithm. Interface: Select to set DMZ/Virtual Server for “EWAN”, “3G/4G-LTE” or “3G/4G-LTE USB”. Service Index: Associated to EWAN interface marking each EWAN service (0-7), to select which EWAN service the DMZ and Virtual server are applied to. Click DMZ  or  Virtual Server   to move on to set the DMZ or Virtual Server parameters, which are represented in the following scenario.

The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port number used by any other Virtual Server entries.  DMZ for: Indicate the related WAN interface which allows outside network to connect in and communicate. Note: Here you can see the Multiple IPs Account/EWAN Service ID 0. It is the interface set in the previous NAT page.  DMZ:     Enabled: It activates your DMZ function.      Disabled: It disables the DMZ function.   DMZ Host IP Address: Give a static IP address to the DMZ Host when Enabled radio button is checked. Be aware that this IP will be exposed to the WAN/Internet. Select the Save button to apply your changes.

In TCP/IP networks, a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can locate them. If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from other machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that can accept incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant messaging applications and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network Address Translation), then you will usually need to configure your router to forward these incoming connection attempts using specific ports to the PC on your network running the application. You will also need to use port forwarding if you want to host an online game server. The reason for this is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address will be used by and point to your router, which then needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by your PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for more information on NAT. The device can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such as Web or FTP services via the public (WAN) IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN network. Depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the device redirects the external service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network.  Virtual Server for: Indicate the related WAN interface which allows outside network to connect in and communicate. Protocol: Choose the application protocol.

(Example: Start / End: 1000 or Start: 1000, End: 2000).  The starting greater than zero (0) and the ending port must be the same or larger than the starting port.  Local IP Address: Enter your server IP address in this field. Start / End Port Number (Local): Enter the start / end port number of the local application (service).  Examples of well-known and registered port numbers are shown below.

For this reason you are advised to use specific Virtual Server entries just for the ports your application requires, instead of using DMZ. As doing so will result in all connections from the WAN attempt to access to your public IP of the DMZ PC specified.  If you have disabled the NAT option in the WAN-ISP section, the Virtual Server function will hence be invalid. If the DHCP server option is enabled, you have to be very careful in assigning the IP addresses of the virtual servers in order to avoid conflicts. The easiest way of configuring Virtual Servers is to manually assign static IP address to each virtual server PC, with an address that does not fall into the range of IP addresses that are to be issued by the DHCP server. You can configure the virtual server IP address manually, but it must still be in the same subnet as the router. Attention

Step 1:  Assign a static IP to your local computer that is hosting the FTP server.  Step 2:  Login to the Gateway and go to Configuration / Advanced Setup / NAT / Virtual Server. FTP server uses TCP protocol with port 21.  Enter ”21” to Start and End Port Number.  BiPAC 6300VNP(O)Z will accept port 21 requests from WAN side.   Eneter the static IP assiged to the local PC that is hosting the FTP server. Ex: 192.168.1.102 Enter ”21” to Local Start and End Port number. BiPAC 6300VNP(O)Z will forward port 21 request from WAN to the specific LAN PC (ex:192.168.1.102) in the network.   Step 3: Click Save to save settings.

Most importantly, it translates domain names meaningful to humans into the numerical identifiers associated with networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these devices worldwide. An often-used analogy to explain the Domain Name System is that it serves as the phone book for the Internet by translating human-friendly computer hostnames into IP addresses. For example, the domain name www.example.com can be translated into the addresses 192.0.32.10 (IPv4). Static DNS is a concept relative to Dynamic DNS, in static DNS system, the IP mapped is static without change.  IP Address: The IP address you are going to give a specific domain name. Domain Name: The friendly domain name for the IP address. Press Save button to apply your settings.

VPNs provide security through tunneling protocols and security procedures such as encryption. For example, a VPN could be used to securely connect the branch offices of an organization to a head office network through the public Internet.  Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) is a protocol suite for securing Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a communication session. IPsec also includes protocols for establishing mutual authentication between agents at the beginning of the session and negotiation of cryptographic keys to be used during the session. IPSec is an end-to-end security scheme operating in the Internet Layer of the Internet Protocol Suite. It can be used in protecting data flows between a pair of security gateways (network-to-network), or between a security gateway and a host (network-to-host). A total of 8 IPSec tunnels can be added.  NAT Traversal: This directly enables use of the NAT-Traversal IPsec extension (NAT-T). NAT-T allows one or both peers to reside behind a NAT gateway (i.e., doing address- or port-translation).

Pre-Shared Key: This is for the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol, a string from 4 to 128 characters. Both sides should use the same key. IKE is used to establish a shared security policy and authenticated keys for services (such as IPSec) that require a key. Before any IPSec traffic can be passed, each router must be able to verify the identity of its peer. This can be done by manually entering the pre-shared key into both sides (router or hosts). Local ID Type and Remote ID Type: When the mode of IKE is aggressive, Local and Remote peers can be identified by other IDs. IDContent: Enter IDContent the name you want to identify when the Local and Remote Type are Domain Name; Enter IDContent IP address you want to identify when the Local and Remote Type are IP addresses (IPv4 and IPv6 supported). Encryption Algorithm: Select the encryption algorithm from the drop-down menu. There are several options: DES and AES (128, 192 and 256). 3DES and AES are more powerful but increase latency.  DES: Stands for Data Encryption Standard, it uses 56 bits as an encryption method.  3DES: Stands for Triple Data Encryption Standard, it uses 168 (56*3) bits as an encryption method.  AES:  Stands for Advanced Encryption Standards, you can use 128, 192 or 256 bits as encryption method. Authentication Algorithm: Authentication establishes the integrity of the datagram and ensures it is not tampered with in transmission. There are 3 options: Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA1, SHA256). SHA1 is more resistant to brute-force attacks than MD5. However, it is slower.  MD5: A one-way hashing algorithm that produces a 128−bit hash.  SHA1: A one-way hashing algorithm that produces a 160−bit hash. Diffle-Hellman Group: It is a public-key cryptography protocol that allows two parties to establish a shared secret over an unsecured communication channel (i.e. over the Internet). MODP stands for Modular Exponentiation Groups. IPSec Proposal: Select the IPSec security method. There are two methods of verifying the authentication information, AH(Authentication Header) and ESP(Encapsulating Security Payload). Use ESP for greater security so that data will be encrypted and the data origin be authenticated but using AH data origin will only be authenticated but not encrypted. Authentication Algorithm: Authentication establishes the integrity of the datagram and ensures it is not tampered with in transmission. There are 3 options: Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA1, SHA256). SHA1 is more resistant to brute-force attacks than MD5.

SA Lifetime: Specify the number of minutes that a Security Association (SA) will stay active before new encryption and authentication key will be exchanged. There are two kinds of SAs, IKE and IPSec. IKE negotiates and establishes SA on behalf of IPSec, an IKE SA is used by IKE.  Phase 1 (IKE): To issue an initial connection request for a new VPN tunnel. The range can be from 5 to 15,000 minutes, and the default is 480 minutes.  Phase 2 (IPSec): To negotiate and establish secure authentication. The range can be from 5 to 15,000 minutes, and the default is 60 minutes. A short SA time increases security by forcing the two parties to update the keys. However, every time the VPN tunnel re-negotiates, access through the tunnel will be temporarily disconnected. PING for Keep Alive:  None: The default setting is None. To this mode, it will not detect the remote IPSec peer has been lost or  not. It only follows the policy of Disconnection time after no traffic, which the remote IPSec will be disconnected after the time you set in this function.  PING:  This mode will detect the remote IPSec peer has lost or not by pinging specify IP address.  DPD: Dead peer detection (DPD) is a keeping alive mechanism that enables the router to be detected lively when the connection between the router and a remote IPSec peer has lost. Please be noted, it must be enabled on the both sites. PING to the IP: It is able to IP Ping the remote PC with the specified IP address and alert when the connection fails. Once alter message is received, Router will drop this tunnel connection. Reestablish of this connection is required. Default setting is 0.0.0.0 which disables the function Interval: This sets the time interval between Pings to the IP function to monitor the connection status. Default interval setting is 10 seconds. Time interval can be set from 0 to 3600 second, 0 second disables the function.

UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device. Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows ME natively support UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.   UPnP: Select this checkbox to activate UPnP. Be aware that anyone could use a UPnP application to open the web configuration’s login screen without entering the BiPAC 6300VNP(O)Z ' IP address Auto-configured: Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled applications to automatically configure the BiPAC 6300VNP(O)Z so that they can communicate through the gateway, for example by using NAT traversal, UPnP applications automatically reserve a NAT forwarding port in order to communicate with another UPnP enabled device; this eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the UPnP enabled application.

This is especially useful for hosting servers via your internet connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP. Here users can register different WAN interfaces with different DNS(es). But note that first users have to go to the Dynamic DNS registration service provider to register an account.   Dynamic DNS: Select this check box to activate Dynamic DNS. Service Provider: Select from drop-down menu for the appropriate service provider, for example: www.dyndns.org. My Host Name: Type the domain name assigned to your router by your Dynamic DNS provider. Username: Type your user name. Password: Type the password. Wildcard support: Select this check box to enable DYNDNS Wildcard. Period: Set the time period between updates, for the Router to exchange information with the DDNS server. In addition to updating periodically as per your settings, the router will perform an update when your dynamic IP address changes.

It defines an application layer protocol for remote management of end-user devices. It defines an application layer protocol for remote management of end-user devices.   As a bidirectional SOAP/HTTP based protocol it can provides the communication between customer premises equipment (CPE) and Auto Configuration Server (ACS). It includes both a safe configuration and the control of other CPE management functions within an integrated framework. In the course of the booming broadband market, the number of different internet access possibilities grew as well (e.g. modems, routers, gateways, set-top box, VoIP-phones).At the same time the configuration of this equipment became more complicated –too complicated for end-users. For this reason, TR-069 was developed. It provides the possibility of auto configuration of the access types. Using TR-069 the terminals can get in contact with the Auto Configuration Servers (ACS) and establish the configuration automatically and let ACS configure CPE automatically.
