Locate an optimum location for the SOHOSpeed. 2. For connections to the Ethernet and DSL interfaces, refer to the Quick Installation Guide. 3. Connect the AC Power Adapter. Depending upon the type of network, you may want to put the power supply on an uninterruptible supply. Only use the power adapter supplied with the SOHOSpeed. A different adapter may damage the product. Now that the hardware installation is complete, continue on to set up your SOHOSpeed.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 93. Setting up Your SOHOSpeed This section guides you through configuring your SOHOSpeed. The SOHOSpeed is shipped with a standard default bridge configuration. Most users would want to change the SOHOSpeed from a bridge to a router. Before setting up your SOHOSpeed, make sure you have followed the Quick Start Guide. You should have your computers configured for DHCP mode and have proxies disabled on your browser. If you access the router using your web browser and see a log-in redirection page instead of the Log In page, check your browser’s settings to verify that JavaScript is enabled. Also, if you do not get the page as shown below, you may need to delete your temporary Internet files by flushing the cached web pages. 3.1 Log into Your SOHOSpeed Use the following procedures to log in to your SOHOSpeed. 1. Open your web browser. You may get an error message. This is normal. Continue on to the next step. 2. Type the default IP address of the SOHOSpeed 192.168.1.1 and press Enter. The Log In page appears. 3. Enter the following information: z User Name: Adminz Password: AdminNote: Both fields are case-sensitive. Admin is the default value. The login name and password can be changed later on using the Tools/User Management menu options. 4. Click Log In.The main page appears.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 103.2 Home Page The first page is the Home page. From this page you can perform the following tasks: z Setup the SOHOSpeed (configure the LAN and WAN connection(s). z Configure the advanced configuration options within the SOHOSpeed (security, routing, and filtering). z Obtain the status of the SOHOSpeed. z View the extensive online help.The basic layout of the Home page consists of a page selection list across the top of the browser window. The lower center part of the page displays the SOHOSpeed status, connection information, and other useful information. The center part of the display provides descriptions of the options supported on the other web interface pages.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 113.3 Setup To setup your SOHOSpeed with a basic configuration, from the Main page, select Setup. The figure below illustrates the Setup page. The page is divided into two subsections: the LAN Setup and the WAN Setup. Before configuring the SOHOSpeed, there are several concepts that you should be familiar with on how your new SOHOSpeed works. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with these concepts, as it should make the configuration much easier. 3.3.1 Wide Area Network (WAN) Connection On one side of the SOHOSpeed is the WAN interface, also referred to as a broadband connection. This WAN connection is different for every WAN service provider. Most of the configuration you perform is for the WAN connection. 3.3.2 Local Area Network (LAN) Connection On the other side of the SOHOSpeed are LAN interfaces. This is where local hosts are connected. The SOHOSpeed is normally configured to automatically provide all the hosts on the LAN network with IP addresses.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 123.4 Configuring the WAN Before the SOHOSpeed passes any data between the LAN interfaces and the WAN interface, the WAN side of the SOHOSpeed must be configured. You need some (or all) of the information outlined below before you can properly configure the WAN: z Your DSL line virtual path identifier (VPI) and virtual channel identifier (VCI) z Your DSL encapsulation type and multiplexing z Your DSL training mode (default is MultiMode) For PPPoA or PPPoE users, you also need these values from your ISP: z Your username and password For RFC 2684 Static connections, you may need these values from your ISP: z Your fixed WAN IP address z Your subnet mask z Your default gateway z A set of three DNS IP addresses Since multiple users can use the SOHOSpeed, the SOHOSpeed can simultaneously support multiple connection types; hence, you must set up different profiles for each connection. The SOHOSpeed supports the following protocols: z RFC 2516 PPPoE z RFC 2364 PPPoA z RFC 2684 Static z Dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) z Bridged z RFC 2225 classical IP over ATM (CLIP) You can create up to eight WAN connections. 3.4.1 Setup a WAN Connection (New Connection) A new WAN connection is a virtual connection over the physical DSL connection. Your SOHOSpeed can support up to eight different (unique) virtual connections. If you have multiple different virtual connections, you may need to use the static and dynamic routing capabilities of the SOHOSpeed to pass data correctly. Before you make a new WAN connection, you should make sure you have an available DSL connection. PPPoEPPP, or point-to-point protocol, is a method of establishing a network connection/session between network hosts. PPPoE is a protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in Ethernet frames and is described in RFC 2516. PPPoE provides the ability to connect to a network of hosts over a simple bridging access device to a remote access concentrator. With this model, each SOHOSpeed uses its own PPP stack. Access control, billing, and type of service control can all be done on a per-user rather than per-site basis. The default New Connection Setup page, which defaults to the PPPoE Connection Setup page. Notice this page can be logically divided into three sections: z Section A includes settings specific to the connection type z Section B (VLAN settings) z Section C (PVC settings) remains the same for all six connection types. For other connection types, we will focus on the fields in Section A.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 131. At the Setup main page, click New Connection.The default PPPoE Connection Setup page is displayed. 2. In the Name field, enter a unique name for the PPPoE connection. The name must not have spaces and cannot begin with numbers. In this example, the unique name is PPPoE. 3. The Network Address Translation (NAT) and the Firewall options are enabled by default. Leave these in the default mode. Note: NAT enables the IP address on the LAN side to be translated to IP address on the WAN side. If NAT is disabled, you cannot access the Internet. 4. If you want to enable VLAN, refer to the table below to configure the following fields: z Sharing: Select VLAN to enable the VLAN ID and Priority Bits fields. z VLAN ID: Enter the VLAN ID. z Priority Bits: Select the priority bits of the VLAN. 5. In the PPP Settings section, enter values from DSL service provider or your ISP. 6. In the PVC Settings section, enter values for the VPI and VCI.Note: Your DSL service provider or your ISP supplies these values. In this example, the DSL service provider is using 0,33. 7. Select the Quality of Service (QoS). Leave the default value if you are unsure or if the ISP did not provide this information. 8. Click Apply to complete the connection setup. This temporarily activates this connection. ABC
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 14A new link is created for this connection in the left-hand column. You can connect, disconnect, apply, delete, or cancel this connection using the buttons at the bottom of this page. Note: The changes take effect when you click Apply; however, if the SOHOSpeed configuration is not saved, these changes will be lost upon SOHOSpeed reboot. 9. To make the change permanent, click Tools at the top of the page and select System Commands.10. At the System Commands page, click Save All.11. To check the status, click Status at the top of the page and select Connection Status.The figure below shows the Connection Status page. Field DescriptionField Definition/Description Username Your user name for the PPPoE access provided by your DSL service provider or your ISP. This field is alpha-numeric and the maximum length is 64 characters. It cannot start with a number. The character type restrictions do not apply for CLI-based configuration.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 15Password Your password for the PPPoE access provided by your DSL service provider or your ISP. This field is alpha-numeric and the maximum length is 128 characters. The character type restrictions do not apply for CLI-based configuration. Idle Timeout Specifies that PPPoE connection should disconnect if the link has no activity detected for n seconds. This field is used in conjunction with the On-Demand feature and is enabled only when the On Demand field is checked. To ensure that the link is always active, enter a 0 in this field. You can also enter a value larger than 10 (secs). Keep Alive When the On Demand option is not enabled, this value specifies the time to wait without being connected to your provider before terminating the connection. To ensure that the link is always active, enter a 0 in this field. You can also enter any positive integer value in this field. Authentication Three authentication options are available: z Autoz Challenge handshake authentication protocol (CHAP) z Password authentication protocol (PAP) Microsoft CHAP v2 is also supported in the Auto and CHAP options. However, MS CHAP v1 is not supported. MTU Maximum transmit unit the DSL connection can transmit. It is a negotiated value that packets of no more than n bytes can be sent to the service provider. The PPPoE interface default MTU is 1492 (max) and PPPoA default MTU is 1500 (max). The minimum MTU value is 64. On Demand Enables On Demand mode. The connection disconnects if no activity is detected after the specified idle timeout value. When checked, this field enables the following fields: z Idle Timeout z Host Trigger z Valid Rx Default Gateway If checked, this WAN connection acts as the default gateway to the Internet.Enforce MTU This feature is enabled by default. It forces all TCP traffic to conform with PPP MTU by changing TCP maximum segment size to PPP MTU. If it is disabled, you may have issues accessing some Internet sites. Debug Enables PPPoE connection debugging facilities. This option is used by ISP technical support and ODM/OEM testers to simulate packets going through the network from the WAN side. PPPUnnumbered PPP Unnumbered is a special feature. It enables the ISP to designate a block of public IP addresses to the customer where it is statically assigned on the LAN side. PPP Unnumbered is, in essence, like a bridged connection. LAN The LAN field is associated with the PPP Unnumbered field and is enabled when the PPP Unnumbered field is checked. You can specify the LAN group the packets need to go to when the PPP Unnumbered feature is activated.Field Definition/Description Sharing The following options are available: z Disable: Disables connection sharing. z Enable: Enables connection sharing. z VLAN: The VLAN ID and Priority Bits fields are activated when VLAN is selected, which enable you to create VLAN. VLAN ID VLAN Identification. Multiple connections over the same PVC are supported, which requires the WAN network to have VLAN support and for the DSLAMS and Routers on the ISP to handle VLAN Tags. Extended support is also available, which allows multiple connections to be placed over the single PVC without VLAN support (VLAN Tag of 0 is this special case). In this mode of operation, a received packet is flooded on all the connections that reside over it.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 16Priority BitsPriority is given to a VLAN connection from 0-7. All packets sent over the VLAN connection have the Priority bits set to the configured value. PVC Permanent virtual circuit. This is a fixed virtual circuit between two users. It is the public data network equivalent of a leased line. No call setup or clearing procedures are needed. VPI Virtual path identifier, equivalent to the virtual path connection (VPC). VCI Virtual channel identifier. A 16-bit field in the header of an ATM cell. The VCI, together with the VPI, is used to identify the next destination of a cell as it passes through to the ATM switch. QoS Quality of service, a characteristic of data transmission that measures how accurately and how quickly a message or data is transferred from a source host to a destination host over a network. The three QoS options are: z Undefined Bit Rate (UBR): When UBR is selected, the PCR, SCR, MBS, and CDVT fields are disabled. z Constant Bit Rate (CBR): When CBR is selected, the PCR and CDVT fields are enabled. z Variable Bit Rate (VBR): When VBR is selected, the PCR, SCR, MBS, and CDVT fields are enabled. PCR Peak Cell Rate, measured in cells/sec, is the cell rate which the source may never exceed. SCR Sustained cell rate, measured in cells/sec, is the average cell rate over the duration of the connection. MBS Maximum burst size, a traffic parameter that specifies the maximum number of cells that can be transmitted at the Peak Cell Rate. CDVT Cell delay variation tolerance, the maximum amount of cell delay variation that can be accommodated. Cell delay variation measures the random inter-arrival times of cells within an ATM connection due to cell transfer delay caused by buffering, multiplexing, and so on. Auto PVC Auto-Sensing permanent virtual circuit. The overall operation of the auto-sensing PVC feature relies on end-to-end OAM pings to defined PVCs. There are two groups of PVCs: customer default PVCs which are defined by the OEM/ISP and the backup PVCs. The customer default must have 0/35 as the first default PVC. The backup list of PVCs must be of the following VPI/VCI: 0/35, 8/35, 0/43, 0/51, 0/59, 8/43, 8/51, and 8/59. The list of PVCs is defined in XML and is configurable. The Auto-Sensing PVC feature itself is also configurable in that the auto-search mechanism can be disabled. Upon DSL synchronization, end-to-end OAM pings will be conducted for every defined PVC. The result of the pings will be recorded in an array for later use to determine the usability of the particular PVC for connectivity. This list helps the PVC manage the available PVC for use, and needs to be synchronized with connections made without Auto-Sensing PVC. Update to this list is performed for any change in DSL synchronization. During connection establishment, the PVC module will first search through the list of defined default PVCs. If a PVC is found from the default list that is ping-able and not in use, the PVC module will update for that particular PVC as in-use from the list and continues processing. If a PVC is not found in the default, the backup PVC list is used. If no PVC is found again, the module will let the end-user know that no available VCC was found. With the connection established, the PVC is stored in flash as the connection default PVC. Therefore upon reboot, this PVC is automatically chosen as the PVC for that connection. This saved PVC in environment space of flash overrides
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 17the PVC connection saved in XML configuration space of flash for that connection. During the connection establishment processing, the saved PVC will be checked to see whether a connection can be made with the PVC. If the PVC is OAM ping-able, the connection process continues. If the PVC is not OAM ping-able, the search for an available PVC starts. The process of PVC selection is the same as described above. The list of default PVCs and backup PVCs need to be global for the management of all connections, non Auto-Sensing PVC connection, as well as, Auto-Sensing PVC connections. These lists allow the end-users to establish connectivity without keeping track of the PVC used. PPPoA Connection Setup PPPoA is also known as RFC 2364. It is a method of encapsulating PPP packets in ATM cells that are carried over the DSL line. PPP, or point-to-point protocol, is a method of establishing a network connection/session between network hosts. It usually provides a mechanism of authenticating users. Logical link control (LLC) and virtual circuit (VC) are two different methods of encapsulating the PPP packet. Contact your ISP to determine which encapsulation is being used on your DSL connection. To configure the SOHOSpeed for PPPoA: 1. On the Setup main page, click New Connection.The default PPPoE Connection Setup page isdisplayed. 2. From Type drop-down box, select PPPoA.The default PPPoA Connection Setup page is displayed. 3. Enter a unique name for the PPPoA connection in the Name field. The name must not have spaces and cannot begin with numbers. In this example, the unique name is PPPoA. 4. The Network Address Translation (NAT) and the Firewall options are enabled by default. Leave these in the default mode. 5. If you want to enable VLAN, refer to the table on section 3.4.1 to configure the following fields:z Sharing: Select VLAN to enable the VLAN ID and Priority Bits fields. z VLAN ID: Enter the VLAN ID. z Priority Bits: Select the priority bits of the VLAN. 6. In the PPP Settings section, select the encapsulation type (LLC or VC). Note: If you are not sure, just use the default mode.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 187. In the PVC Settings section, enter values for the VPI and VCI.Note: Your DSL service provider or your ISP supplies these values. In this example, the DSL service provider is using 0,33. 8. Select the Quality of Service (QoS). Leave the default value if you are unsure or if the ISP did not provide this information.

SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 303.5.1 LAN Group Configuration The LAN Group Configuration page allows you to configure settings for each defined LAN group. Notice that you can also view the status of advanced services that can be applied to this LAN group. A green status indicates that the services have been enabled, while a red status indicates that the service is currently disabled. Field Description Category/Field Field Definition/Description Unmanaged Unmanaged is a state when the LAN group is not configured and no IP address has been assigned to the bridge. Obtain an IP address automatically When this function is enabled, your SOHOSpeed acts like a client and requests an IP address from the DHCP server on the LAN side. IP Address You can retrieve/renew an IP address from the DHCP server using the Release and Renew buttons. Netmask The subnet mask of your Gateway. PPP IP Address Enables/disables PPP unnumbered feature. IP Address The IP address should be different from, but in the same subnet as the WAN-side IP address. Use the following Static IP address This field enables you to change the IP address of the SOHOSpeed. IP Address The default IP address of the SOHOSpeed is 192.168.1.1. Netmask The default subnet mask of your SOHOSpeed is 255.255.255.0. This subnet allows the SOHOSpeed to support 254 users. If you want to support a larger number of users you can change the subnet mask. DefaultGatewayThe default gateway is the routing device used to forward all traffic that is not addressed to a station within the local subnet. Your ISP provides you with the IP address of the default gateway.Host Name The host name is used in conjunction with the domain name to uniquely identify the SOHOSpeed. It can be any alphanumeric word that does not contain spaces.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 31Domain The domain name is used in conjunction with the host name to uniquely identify the SOHOSpeed. To access the web pages of the SOHOSpeed you can type 192.168.1.1 (the IP address) or mygateway1.ar7 (Host Name.Domain). Enable DHCP Server Enables/disables DHCP. By default, your SOHOSpeed has the DHCP server (LAN side) enabled. If you already have a DHCP server running on your network, you must disable one of the two DHCP servers. Assign ISP DNS,SNTPEnable/disables the Assign ISP DNS, SNTP feature when the DHCP server of your SOHOSpeed has been enabled. To learn more about the Assign ISP DNS, SNTP feature, refer to ‘‘Assign ISP DNS, SNTP’’. Start IP The Start IP Address is where the DHCP server starts issuing IP addresses. This value must be greater than the IP address value of the SOHOSpeed. For example, if the IP address of the SOHOSpeed is 192.168.1.1 (default), then the starting IP address must be 192.168.1.2 (or higher). Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure the values are still within the same subnet as the SOHOSpeed. In other words, if the IP address of the SOHOSpeed is 192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the DHCP start/end IP addresses to be 192.168.1.2/192.168.1.100, you cannot communicate with the SOHOSpeed if your host has DHCP enabled. End IP The End IP Address is where the DHCP server stops issuing IP addresses. The ending address cannot exceed a subnet limit of 254, hence the max value for the default gateway is 192.168.1.254. If the DHCP server runs out of DHCP addresses, users do not get access to network resources. If this happens, you can increase the Ending IP address (to the limit of 254) or reduce the lease time. Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure the values are still within the same subnet as the IP address of the SOHOSpeed. In other words, if the IP address of the SOHOSpeed is 192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the DHCP start/end IP addresses to be 192.168.1.2/192.168.1.100, you cannot communicate with the SOHOSpeed if your host has DHCP enabled. Lease TimeThe Lease Time is the amount of time that a network user is allowed to maintain a network connection to the SOHOSpeed using the current dynamic IP address. At the end of the Lease Time, the lease is either renewed or a new IP is issued by the DHCP server. The amount of time is in units of seconds. The default value is 3600 seconds (1 hour). The maximum value is 999999 seconds (about 278 hours). Enable DHCP Relay In addition to the DHCP server feature, the SOHOSpeed supports the DHCP relay function. When the SOHOSpeed is configured as DHCP server, it assigns the IP addresses to the LAN clients. When the SOHOSpeed is configured as DHCP relay, it is responsible for forwarding the requests and responses negotiated between the DHCP clients and the server. Relay IP The IP address of the DHCP relay server. Server and Relay Off When the DHCP server and relay functions are turned off, the network administrator must carefully configure the IP address, Subnet Mask, and DNS settings of every host on your network. Do not assign the same IP address to more than one host. Also, your SOHOSpeed must reside on the same subnet as all the other hosts.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 32Example of a DHCP Relay configuration 4.6.1.1 Assign ISP DNS, SNTP When you enable the DHCP server on the LAN side, the SOHOSpeed dynamically assigns IP addresses to the hosts on the local network. The SOHOSpeed provides its own LAN IP address (192.168.1.1) as both the gateway and the DNS server. On the WAN side, the SOHOSpeed receives the following data (among other data) from the ISP:z IP: 10.10.10.101 z Gateway: 10.10.10.1 z DNS: 10.10.10.5 The SOHOSpeed has a choice of advertising its own IP address (192.168.1.1) to the LAN side hosts as the DNS server, or providing the DNS that was received from the WAN side (10.10.10.5). This can be configured by enabling/ disabling Assign ISP DNS SNTP on the LAN Group Configuration page. Note: This section only applies when you have enabled DHCP server on the LAN Group Configuration page. External DHCP Options The default option (feature disabled) As shown in figure above, when Assign ISP DSN SNTP is disabled, the hosts on the LAN network use the LAN IP address of the SOHOSpeed as the DNS. The following data is provided to the host by the DHCP server. z IP: 192.168.1.x z Gateway: 192.168.1.1 z DNS: 192.168.1.1 The external DHCP option (feature enabled) As shown in figure above, when Assign ISP DSN SNTP is enabled, the host on the LAN network uses the WAN side DNS. The following data is provided to the host: z IP: 192.168.1.x z Gateway: 192.168.1.1 z DNS: 10.0.0.5
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 33Note: If the WAN connection is also of DHCP type, the SOHOSpeed receives additional data from the ISP, and if Assign ISP DSN SNTP is enabled, the data is passed on to the LAN side hosts as well. The additional data may include (but not limited to) the following: z Time server z Log server z Cookie server z Print server z NTP server z WINS server 3.5.2 Ethernet Switch Configuration Ethernet switch port settings can be configured to meet the requirements of your LAN configuration. As seen in the drop-down menu in figure below, port setting options include: z Auto detect (default) z 10 Mbps half duplex z 10 Mbps full duplex z 100 Mbps half duplex z 100 Mbps full duplex In the example shown, the system has auto-detected an Ethernet cable connected to LAN port 3 and assigned a port setting of 100 Mbps full duplex.

The figure below shows the default SNMP page. SNMP uses a Manager- Management information base (MIB)-Agent solution to fulfill network management needs. The manager is a separate station that can request data from an SNMP agent, which resides in each modem on the network. The agent uses the MIBs as dictionaries of manageable objects. The SNMP agent supports GET, SET, GETNEXT, and TRAP for four groups with MIB-II: System, Interface, IP, and ICMP.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 49Field Description Field Definition/Description Enable SNMP Agent The SNMP agent is enabled by default. Enable SNMP TrapsSNMP traps are enabled to send by default. Name An administratively-assigned name for the SOHOSpeed. Location The physical location of the SOHOSpeed. Contact Contact person and/or contact information for the SOHOSpeed. Vendor OID Vendor object identifier. The vendor's authoritative identification of the network management subsystem contained in the entity. This value is allocated within the SMI enterprises subtree (1.3.6.1.4.1). For example, Texas Instruments was assigned the subtree 1.3.6.1.4.1.294. Community SNMP defines a community to be a relationship between an SNMP agent and one or more SNMP managers. Once the clear-text community name corresponds to a community known to the receiving SNMP entity, the sending SNMP entity is considered to be authenticated as a member of that community and is granted different levels of access: read-only or read-write. The combination of community access mode and a MIB-managed project defines the community profile for each object. The community profile defines the operations that can be applied to the object. In the SOHOSpeed, a default community name of public with access mode of read-only is created in the configuration file. It allows a GET or a GETNEXT operation to all objects with access rights of READ-ONLY and READ-WRITE in the MIB. In the SOHOSpeed, up to three community names can be configured through the web page. The view_subtrees of SNMPv2c and user-based security model and view-based access control model of SNMPv3 will be supported in future SNMP agent development. Community Name Name of community. SNMP supports up to 3 communities including the default community name of public. Community Access Right Two options are offered: z ReadOnly: Allows a GET or a GETNEXT operation to all objects in the MIB. z ReadWrite: Allows ReadOnly access right to all objects and SET operation to objects defined as read-writable in the MIB. Trap Trap is an event notification. There are four standard traps supported in the SOHOSpeed: z WarmStartTrap z LinkUpTrap z LinkDownTrap z AuthenticationFailureTrap Trap Destination IPDestination IP address of the trap. Traps can be sent to three different destinations. Trap Community Community name of the trap. Trap Version Two trap versions/formats are supported: z SNMP v1 z SNMP v2c

SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 683.7.13 IGMP Proxy Multicasting is a form of limited broadcast. UDP is used to send datagrams to all hosts that belong to what is called a Host Group. A host group is a set of one or more hosts identified by a single IP destination address. The following statements apply to host groups: z Anyone can join or leave a host group at will. z There are no restrictions on a host’s location. z There are no restrictions on the number of members that may belong to a host group. z A host may belong to multiple host groups. z Non-group members may send UDP datagrams to the host group. Multicasting is useful when the same data needs to be sent to more than one device. For instance, if one device is responsible for acquiring data that many other devices need, then multicasting is a natural fit. Note that using multicasting as opposed to sending the same data to individual devices uses less network bandwidth. The multicast feature also enables you to receive multicast video streams from multicast servers. IP hosts use Internet group management protocol (IGMP) to report their multicast group memberships to neighboring routers. Similarly, multicast routers use IGMP to discover which of their hosts belong to multicast groups. Your SOHOSpeed supports IGMP proxy that handles IGMP messages. When enabled, your SOHOSpeed acts as a proxy for a LAN host making requests to join and leave multicast groups, or a multicast router sending multicast packets to multicast groups on the WAN side. The IGMP Proxy page allows you to enable multicast on available WAN and LAN connections. You can configure the WAN or LAN interface as one of the following: 1. Upstream: The interface that IGMP requests from hosts are sent to the multicast router. 2. Downstream: The interface data from the multicast router are sent to hosts in the multicast group database. 3. Ignore: No IGMP request nor data multicast are forwarded. You can perform one of the two options: 1. Configure one or more WAN interface as the upstream interface. 2. Configure one or more LAN interface as the upstream interface. Each option is discussed in more details as follows.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 69Configure a WAN Interface as the Upstream IGMP Proxy This applies when the multicast server in on the network. Hosts on your LAN side can send IGMP requests through the WAN interface. And the WAN will pass multicast packets from the multicast server to the hosts on the LAN side. In figure as shown below, the WAN interface DHCP1 is enabled as the upstream IGMP interface, which forwards IGMP requests from LAN group 1 to the multicast router on the network and forwards multicast frames from the multicast router to hosts on the downstream interface (LAN group 1). No IGMP request nor data multicast are forwarded to PPPoE1 or LAN Group 2. 1. Check Enable IGMP Proxy.2. Configure the following WAN/LAN interfaces: z PPPoE: Ignore z DHCP: Upstream z LAN group 1: Downstream z LAN group 2: Ignore

SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 723.7.14 Static Routing The Static Routing page enables you to define routes for specific subnets on the WAN/LAN side. The SOHOSpeed allows you to manually program the SOHOSpeed's routing table. Up to 16 static routes can be added. Field Description Field Definition/Description Select a Connection Select the LAN group or WAN connection to which a static routing subnet is to be applied. New Destination IP The network IP address of the subnet. (You can also enter the IP address of each individual station in the subnet). Mask The network mask of the destination subnet. Gateway The IP address of the next hop through which traffic will flow towards the destination subnet. Metric Defines the number of hops the between network nodes that data packets travel. The default value is 0, which means that the subnet is directly one hop away on the local LAN network. Suppose you have a network like the one shown in figure below. In your LAN, you have an Gateway (192.168.1.1) and three stations connected to it (192.168.1.x). A subnet is added to your LAN group by adding a second router (192.168.1.5/ 10.0.0.1) with four stations (10.0.0.x) connected to it. The four stations in the subnet cannot receive packets unless they are added to the routing table of your SOHOSpeed. You can add each individual station to the routing table using the Static Routing page, or more easily, you can add the whole subnet in one entry.The procedure below explains how to add the subnet to the SOHOSpeed routing table.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 731. From the Choose a connection drop-down menu, select your LAN connection LAN Group 1. 2. Enter or leave the default entry for the following parameters: z New Destination IP: 10.0.0.0 (the network IP address of the subnet) z Mask: 255.255.255.0 (the subnet mask) z Gateway: 192.168.1.5 (the LAN-side IP address of the second router, through which the stations in the subnet access the network) z Metric: 0 You are telling the SOHOSpeed that a new subnet with an IP of 10.0.0.0 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0 has been added and can access the SOHOSpeed via station 192.168.1.5. The metric is 0 since the subnet is one level down on the LAN. 3. Click Apply to temporarily activate the settings. You have added the subnet to the routing table. The four stations in the subnet can receive packets from the WAN. Note: You can add up to 16 entries. You can also delete any entry using the Delete checkbox. 4. Click Apply again when you finish making all the changes. Note: The changes take effect when you click Apply; however, if the SOHOSpeed configuration is not saved, these changes will be lost upon SOHOSpeed reboot.

At the System Commands page, click Save All.3.7.15 Dynamic Routing The dynamic routing feature enables the SOHOSpeed to dynamically define routes for WAN and LAN subnets. Dynamic routing uses routing information protocol (RIP) for exchanging routing information with other routers in the network. It is supported across both WAN and LAN interfaces. Any RIP-enabled router sends out automatic update packets containing its own routing table on a periodic basis (every 30 secs). Similarly, it accepts such periodic updates from other routers and adds, deletes, or modifies routes in its own routing table accordingly. The router is also expected to receive requests for its routing table and respond accordingly. Use the Dynamic Routing page to define dynamic routing routes for the available interfaces.Field Description Field Definition/Description Enable RIP Enables/disables RIP. Protocol The following three RIP versions are available: z RIP v1 (UDP protocol) z RIP v2 (multicast protocol) z RIP v1 compatible (UDP protocol with multicast format) Note: Routers using RIP v1 or RIP v1-compatible protocol can talk to each other, but not to routers using RIP v2 protocol. EnablePassword This is an optional field. RIP version v2 compatibility allows you to provide simple plain-text password-based authentication to RIP packets. This field is disabled if RIP v1 protocol is selected. Password The password can be up to 16 characters long.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 75Direction Normally when RIP is enabled on a router, it dynamically learns/provides routes on all its configured interfaces. This parameter allows you to select the interfaces on which RIP is expected to learn and distribute routing information. This feature allows you to control how and which routes get distributed through the network. For example, by selecting In only mode, routes to private LAN networks are prevented from being sent over to the WAN-side router. The following four direction options are available: z Both: Receive updates on the interface and also send its routing table to other routers connected to that interface. z In: Receive routing updates from other routers connected to that interface but do NOT send routing updates on that interface. z Out: Send routing updates but do NOT receive updates on this interface from the other routers connected to that interface. z None: Ignore this interface and do not send or receive routing updates through this interface. To demonstrate the use of the dynamic routing feature, consider an expanded version of the network used in the static routing example in ‘‘Static Routing Page’’. As shown in figure below, you have a network with two LAN connections (192.168.1.x and 172.168.1.x), and each has a router and a subnet. How can host A in subnet 1 (193.168.1.x) talk to host B in subnet 2 (173.168.1.x)? You have two options: z As previously demonstrated in Procedure 14, using the static routing feature, you can add both subnets to the routing table using the Static Routing page (two separate entries). z You can enable dynamic routing on all routers without having to manually enter the individual routes. Keep in mind that you need to enable all routers on this network and they should use the same protocol to be able to communicate with each other. Procedure 15 shows you how to enable and configure the dynamic routing feature on your SOHOSpeed. 1. Check Enable RIP.2. Select the RIP Protocol RIP v2 for training purpose. The Enable Password field is enabled. Note: The same RIP protocol should be used to enable dynamic routing on all routers on the network. 3. Check Enable Password and enter a password. This is an optional field for additional security. 4. For LAN group 1 and LAN group 2, leave Both checked in the Direction field. 5. Click Apply to temporarily activate the settings. Notice you did not need to enter the subnet IP, mask, or gateway when using the
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 76dynamic routing feature. The SOHOSpeeds can receive and transmit routing information and add it to their own routing tables. You also need to enable dynamic routing on routers 2 and 3. 6. Click Apply again when you finish making all the changes. Note: The changes take effect when you click Apply; however, if the SOHOSpeed configuration is not saved, these changes will be lost upon SOHOSpeed reboot. 7.

SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 863.7.18 Egress For packets going out of the SOHOSpeed, the marking (CoS) need to be translated to the mappings understood by the network domains. The reverse CoS and domain mapping is configured using the Egress page. No Egress Mode The default Egress page setting for all interfaces is No Egress. In this mode, the domain mappings of the packets are untouched. Egress Layer 2 Configuration The Egress Layer 2 page enables you to map the CoS of an outgoing packet to user priority bits, which is honoured by the VLAN network. Again, this feature is only configurable on the WAN interfaces as VLAN is only supported on the WAN side in the current release.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 87Field Description Field Definition/Description Interface Select the WAN interface to configure the QoS for outgoing packets. LAN interface can not be selected as VLAN is currently supported on the WAN side only. Unclassified Packet Some locally generated packets might not have been classified and thus do not have a CoS value, such as PPP control packet and ARP packet. You can define the CoS for all unclassified outgoing packets on layer 2 using this field, which will then pick up the user priority bits based on the mapping rules you create. The selections are (in the order of descending priority): CoS1, CoS2, CoS3, CoS4, CoS5, and CoS6. The default value is CoS1 (recommended) User Priority The selections are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Class of Service The selections are (in the order of descending priority): CoS1, CoS2, CoS3, CoS4, CoS5, and CoS6. Egress Layer 3 Configuration The Egress Layer 3 page enables you to map CoS to ToS so that the priority marking of outgoing packets can be carried over to the IP network. Egress - Layer 3 Page Descriptions Field Definition/Description Interface Select the WAN/LAN interface here to configure the QoS for outgoing traffic to the IP network. Default Non-IP Locally generated packets (such as ARP packets) do not have a CoS marking. You can define the CoS for all unclassified outgoing packets on layer 3 using this field. The selections are (in the order of descending priority): CoS1, CoS2, CoS3, CoS4, CoS5, and CoS6. The default value is CoS1 (recommended). Translated ToS The Type of Service field takes values from 1 to 255. The selections are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Class of Service The selections are (in the order of descending priority): CoS1, CoS2, CoS3, CoS4, CoS5, and CoS6.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 883.7.19 Shaper The Shaper Configuration page is accessed by selecting Shaper on the Advanced main page. Three shaper algorithms are supported: z HTBz Low Latency Queue Discipline z PRIOWRRNote: Egress TCA is required if shaper is configured for that interface. Field Description Field Definition/Description Interface The selections are WAN/LAN interfaces except WLAN, which does not support Shaper feature. This field needs to be selected before shaper configuration. Max Rate This field is applicable for the HTB Queue Discipline and Low Latency Queue Discipline, both are rate-based shaping algorithms. HTBQueueDisciplineThe hierachical token bucket queue discipline is a rate-based shaping algorithm. This algorithm rate shapes the traffic of a class over a specific interface. All CoSx traffic is assigned a specific rate to which data will be shaped to. For example: If CoS1 is configured to 100Kbps then even if 300Kbps of CoS1 data is being transmitted to the interface only 100Kbps will be sent out. Low Latency QueueDisciplineThis is similar to the above algorithm except that CoS1 is not rate limited. So in the example above CoS1 data is not rate limited to 100Kbps but instead all 300Kbps is transmitted. The side effect is that a misconfigured stream can potentially take all bandwidth. PRIOWRR This is a priority based weighted round robin algorithm operating on CoS2-CoS6. CoS1 queues have the highest priority and are not controlled by the WRR algorithm.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 89Of the three shaping algorithms available on the Shaper Configuration page, only one can be enabled at a time. An example of each configuration is given as follows. Example 1: HTB Queue Discipline Enabled In the example below, HTB Queue Discipline is enabled. The PPPoE connection has a total of 300 kbits of bandwidth, of which 100 kbits is given to CoS1 and another 100 kbits is given to CoS2. When there is no CoS1 or CoS2 packets, CoS6 packets have the whole 300 kbits of bandwidth. Example 2: Low Latency Queue Discipline Enabled In this second example, Low Latency Queue Discipline is enabled. CoS1 is not rate controlled (hence the field is disabled). CoS2 takes 100 kbits when there is no CoS1 packet. CoS6 has 300 kbits when there is no CoS1 or CoS2 packets. This is similar to the HTB queue discipline as they are both rate-based algorithm, except that CoS1 is handled differently.
SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 90Example 3: PRIOWRR Enabled In this third example, PRIOWRR is enabled. Since PRIOWRR operates only on the number of packets being transmitted, the max rate field has been disabled. Only percentage can be assigned to the CoS2 - CoS6. CoS1 is not rate controlled (hence the field is not displayed). When there is no CoS1 packet, CoS2, CoS3, CoS4 each has 10 percent, and CoS6 has 70 percent. This is similarly to the Low Latency Queue discipline, except that one is packet-based, and the other is rate-based. 3.7.20 Web Access Control The Web Access Control page allows you to access the SOHOSpeed remotely via the web from the WAN side.

SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 993.8.7 Modem Test The Modem Test page is used to check the connectivity to the WAN. This test ay take a few seconds to complete. Before running this test, make sure you ave at least one WAN connection configured and have a valid DSL link. If the SL link is not connected, the test will fail. Also make sure the DSLAM supports this feature. Not all DSLAMs have F4 and F5 support. F4/F5 cells are used for operation, administration, and maintenance (OAM) on ATM level. They are used for two main purposes: z Fault management (detection and notification) z Loopback testing and link integrity The ATM OAM is divided into several levels: z F4: VP level. OAM information flows between network elements (NEs) used within virtual paths to report an unavailable path or a virtual path (VP) that cannot be guaranteed. Segment flows are processed, as well as end-to-end flows that terminate in the management processor. z F5: VC level. OAM information flows between network elements (NEs) used within virtual connections to report degraded virtual channel (VC) performance such as late arriving cells, lost cells, and cell insertion problems. Segment flows are processed, as well as end-to-end flows that terminate in the management processor. Both F4 and F5 flows can be configured as one of the test types: z Segment: This test verifies that ATM continuity exists between the virtual channel link segment from the SOHOSpeed to the DSL provider network (typically this is a DSLAM at the DSL provider site). z End-to-End: This test verifies ATM connectivity of the virtual channel link with the ATM endpoint, such as a remote broadband access router located at the DSL provider or ISP site.

SOHOSpeed ADSL2/2+ Ethernet/Wireless Gateway User’s Manual 106Appendix: Troubleshooting Below is a list of commonly asked questions. Before calling technical support, please look through these issues to see if they help solve your problem. The SOHOSpeed is not functional. 1. Check to see that the POWER LED is green and than the network cables are installed correctly. Refer to the quick configuration guide for more details. 2. Check to see that the LAN and WAN LEDs are green. 3. Check the settings on your PC. Again, refer to the quick configuration guide for more details.4. Check the SOHOSpeed’s settings. 5. From your PC, can you PING the SOHOSpeed? Assuming that the SOHOSpeed has DHCP enabled and your PC is on the same subnet as the SOHOSpeed, you should be able to PING the SOHOSpeed. 6. Can you PING the WAN? Your ISP should have provided the IP address of their server. If you can ping the SOHOSpeed and your protocols are configured correctly, you should be able to ping the ISPs network. If you cannot PING the ISPs network, make sure your using the correct protocols with the correct VPI/VCI values. 7. Make sure NAT is enabled for your connection. If NAT is disabled you the SOHOSpeed will not route frames correctly. I can’t connect to the SOHOSpeed. 1. Check to see that the POWER LED is green and that the network cables are installed correctly; see the quick start guide for more details. 2. Make sure you are not connecting the USB and the Ethernet port at the same time. You must only use 1 interface at a time. 3. Make sure that your PC and the gateway is on the same network segment. The SOHOSpeed’s default IP address is 192.168.1.1. If you are running a Windows based PC, you can open a DOS window and type IPCONFIG; make sure that the network adapter that is connected to the SOHOSpeed is within the same 192.168.1.x subnet. 4. Also, your PC’s Subnet Mask should match the SOHOSpeed’s subnet mask. The SOHOSpeed has a default subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. 5. If this still does not work, press the reset button. This will place the SOHOSpeed into its factory default state. Go through the above procedures again. 6. Make sure NAT is enabled for your connection. If NAT is disabled you the SOHOSpeed will not route frames correctly. The WAN Link LED continues to blink but does not go solid. 1. This means that the DSL line is trying to train but for some reason it cannot establish a valid connection. The main cause of this is that you are too far away from the central office. Contact your DSL service provider for further assistance. The WAN Link LED is always off. 1. Make sure you have DSL service. You should get some kind of information from your ISP which states that DSL service is installed. You can usually tell if the service is installed by listening to the phone line; you will hear some high-pitched noise. If you do not hear high-pitched noise, contact your ISP. 2. Verify that the phone line is connected directly to the wall and to the line input on the SOHOSpeed. If the phone line is connected to the phone side of the SOHOSpeed or you have a splitter installed on the phone line, the WAN light will not come on.
