Dupa conectarea router-ului QA705401WG la retea, acesta trebuie configurat. Acest capitol

descrie cum sa configurati functiile de baza ale router-ului. Aceste proceduri va vor lua doar

cateva minute. Puteti accesa Internetul prin intermediul router-ului imediat ce ati incheiat

cu succes configurarea acestuia.

4.1 Configurarea TCP/IP

Adresa IP initiala a router-ului wireless QA705401WG 54Mbps este 192.168.1.1, iar masca

de retea este 255.255.255.0. Aceste valori pot fi vazute din LAN. Ele pot fi schimbate dupa dorinta, dar in acest ghid vom folosi valorile initiale cu titlu de

exemplu.

Conectati PC-urile locale la porturile LAN ale router-ului. Sunt 2 metode pentru configurarea

adresei IP pentru PC-urile dvs.

Configurarea manuala a adresei IP1) Configurati protocolul TCP/IP pentru PC-urile dvs. Daca aveti nevoie de indicatii

referitoare la aceasta, consultati Anexa B: "Configurarea PC-urilor."2) Configurati parametrii retelei. Adresa IP este 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" reprezinta o valoare

de la 2 la 254), masca de retea este 255.255.255.0, iar Gateway-ul este 192.168.1.1 (adresa IP initiala a router-ului)

Obtinerea automata a unei adrese IP1) Configurati protocolul TCP/IP in modul "Obtain an IP address automatically" de pe

PC-urile dvs. Daca aveti nevoie de indicatii referitoare la aceasta, consultati Anexa B:

"Configurarea PC-urilor."

2) Opriti functionarea router-ului si a PC-urilor. Repuneti apoi in functiune router-ul si

restartati PC-urilor. Serverul DHCP integrat va aloca adrese IP pentru PC-uri.

MAC Address (adresa MAC) - adresa fizica a router-ului, asa cum este vazuta din LAN. Valoarea respectiva poate fi schimbata.

IP Address (adresa IP) - introduceti adresa IP a router-ului dvs. in format cifre si puncte

(initial: 192.168.1.1).Subnet Mask (masca de retea) - un cod adresa care deternmina dimensiunea retelei.In mod normal se foloseste 255.255.255.0 ca masca de retea.

Nota:a. Daca schimbati adresa IP a retelei LAN, trebuie sa folositi noua adresa IP pentru a va

autentifica pe router.b. Daca noua adresa LAN IP pe care ati ales-o nu este in aceeasi subretea, lista de adrese IP

din serverul DHCP nu va fi afectata, pana cand acesta nu este reconfigurat.c. Daca noua adresa LAN IP pe care ati ales-o nu este in aceeasi subretea, serverul virtual

si gazduirea DMZ se va schimba conform noii adrese, in acelasi timp.

5.4.2 WAN

Puteti configura parametrii WAN in pagina ilustrata mai jos.

In primul rand, alegeti tipul de conexiune WAN (Dynamic IP/Static IP/PPPoE/802.1x +Dynamic IP/802.1x + Static IP) la Internet. Tipul preselectat initial este PPPoE. Daca nu

aveti alocati parametrii de autentificare (adresa IP fixa, ID de autentificare, etc), selectati

Dynamic IP. Daca aveti alocata o adresa IP fixa (static IP), selectati Static IP. Daca aveti

alocate un nume de utilizator si o parola, selectati PPPoE. Daca nu stiti ce tip de conexiune

folositi in mod curent, contactati ISP-ul dvs. pentru a obtine informatii corecte.

1. Daca alegeti Dynamic IP, router-ul va va da automat parametrii IP din ISP-ul dvs.

Puteti vedea pagina precum cea ilustrata mai jos (figura 5-4):

- 15 -


Figura 5-4 WAN – Dynamic IP

In aceasta pagina vor fi afisati parametrii WAN IP alocati dinamic de ISP-ul dvs, inclusiv

adresa IP , Subnet Mask (masca de retea), Default Gateway (Gateway initial), etc. Apasati butonul Renew pentru a actualiza parametrii IP ai ISP-ului dvs. Apasati butonul

Release pentru a activa parametrii IP.

MTU Size (dimensiune MTU): Valoarea normala MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) pentru majoritatea retelelor Ethernet este de 1500 Bytes. Pentru anumite ISP-uri trebuie

sa reduceti MTU, dar acest lucru este solicitat rar si nu trebuie facut decat daca sunteti

siguri ca este necesar pentru conexiunea dvs. ISP.

Daca ISP-ul dvs. va ofera una sau doua adrese DNS, selectati Use These DNS Servers si introduceti adresa principla si pe cea secundara in campurile corecte. In caz

contrar, serverele DNS vor fi alocate automat de ISP.

Nota: Daca apar erori de tipul ‘Address not found' cand intrati pe un site web, este

posibil ca serverele dvs. DNS sa fie configurate incorect. Trebuie sa contactati ISP-ul dvs.

pentru a obtine adresele serverului DNS.

Get IP with Unicast DHCP: Cateva servere DHCP ale ISP-urilor nu suporta aplicatiile

de transmisie. Daca nu puteti obtine adresa IP in mod normal, puteti alege aceasta

5.7.1 Servere virtuale

Serverele virtuale sunt utilizate pentru configurarea service-ului publice in LAN-ul dvs, cum ar fi

DNS, Email si FTP. Un server virtual este definit ca un port de service si toate cerintele de la

Internet pentu\ru acest port vor fi redirectionate la computerul specificat de serverul IP. Orice PC care a fost folosit ca server virtual trebuie sa aiba o adresa IP statica sau rezervata,

deoarece adresa sa IP se poate schimba cand este folosita functia DHCP. Puteti configura

serverele virtuale din pagina ilustrata mai jos (figura 5-19):

Figura 5-19: Servere virtuale

Service Port - Numarul porturilor externe. Puteti introduce un port de service sau o gamade porturi de service (formatul este XXX – YYY, XXX este portul Start, YYY este portul

End).IP Address - Adresa IP a PC-ului ce ruleaza aplicatia de service

Protocol - Protocolul folosit pentru aceasta aplicatie, TCP, UDP sau All (toate protocoalele

- 30 -


suportate de router). Enable - Bifarea optiunii Enable permite introducerea serverului virtual. Common Service Port - Unele servicii comune sunt deja listate in lista derulanta.

Pentru a configura introducerea unui server virtual:1. Selectati serviciul pe care doriti sa-l folositi din lista "Common Service Port", ID-ul pe care

doriti sa-l utilizati si selectati butonul Copy. Daca lista Common Service Port nu are

serviciul pe care doriti sa-l utilizati, introduceti numele portului de service sau gama de

porturi de service in campul Service Port.2. Introduceti adresa IP a computerului in campul Server IP Address.3. Selectati protocolul folosit pentru aplicatie, TCP, UDP sau All.4. Bifati Enable pentru a activa serverul virtual. 5. Apasati butonul Save.

Nota: Este posibil sa aveti un computer sau server care sa aiba mai multe tipuri de servicii.

In acest caz, selectati alt serviciu si introduceti aceeasi adresa IP pentru acel computer sau

server.

Pentru a modifica o inregistrare de service:1. Selectati inregistrarea pe care doriti sa o modificati.2. Modificati informati din campul Service Port, ferestrele IP Address si lista derulanta

Pentru a sterge toate inregistrarile de service:1. Apasati butonul Clear All.2. Apasati butonul Save.



Nota: Daca setati serverul virtual al portului de service ca 80, trebuie sa setati si portul de administrare web din pagina Security –> Remote Management ca fiind orice alta valoare in

afara de 80, cum ar fi 8080. In caz contrar, ar putea aparea un conflict.

5.7.2 Port Triggering (declansare port)

Unele aplicatii solicita conexiuni multiple, cum ar fi jocuri Internet, video conferinte, telefonie prin

Internet si asa mai departe. Aceste aplicatii nu pot functiona cu un simplu router NAT.

Port Triggering este folosit pentru unele dintre aceste aplicatii care pot functiona cu un router NAT.

Puteti configura Port Triggering din pagina ilustrata in figura 5-20:

- 31 -


Figura 5-20: Port Triggering

Odata configurat, operarea se face in modul urmator:

1. O gazda locala realizeza o conexiune externa folosind un numar de port de destinatie

definit in campul Trigger Port. 2. Router-ul inregistreaza conexiunea, deschide portul de primire sau porturile asociate

acestei inregistrari in tabelul the Port Triggering si le asociaza cu o gazda locala. 3. Cand este cazul, gazda externa va fi capabila sa se conecteze la gazda folosind

unul dintre porturile definite in campul Incoming Ports.

Trigger Port - Portul pentru traficul extern. O conexiune externa ce foloseste acest port

va declansa aceasta regula. Trigger Protocol - Protocolul folosit pentru porturile Trigger, fie TCP, UDP sau All (toate

protocoalele suportate de router). Incoming Ports Range - Portul sau gama de porturi folosite de sistem de la distanta

cand se raspunde unei cereri externe. Raspunsul folosind unul din aceste porturi va fi

transmis catre PC-ul care a declansat aceasta regula. Puteti introduce cel mult 5 grupe

de porturi (sau sectiune de port). Fiecare grup de porturi trebuie sa fie separat prin ",". De exemplu, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030. Incoming Protocol - Protocolul folosit pentru gama de porturi de intrare, TCP, UDP

sau ALL (toatel protocoalele suportate de router).

Enable - Bifa Enable permite portului transmisia pentru aplicatia respectiva. Common Applications - Unele aplicatii des utilizate, introduse deja in lista derulanta.

Chapter 4: Quick Installation Guide

After connecting the QA705401WG Router into your network, you should configure it. This chapter describes how to configure the basic functions of your QA705401WG

Wireless Router. These procedures only take you a few minutes. You can access the Internet via the router immediately after successfully configuring.

4.1 TCP/IP configuration

The default IP address of the QA705401WG 54Mbps Wireless Router is 192.168.1.1. And the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be seen from the LAN. They can be changed as you desire, as an example we use the default values for description in this guide.

Connect the local PC to the LAN ports of the router. There are then two ways to configure the IP address for your PC.

Configure the IP address manually 1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do

this, please refer to Appendix B: "Configuring the PC." 2) Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is

from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The router's default IP address)

Obtain an IP address automatically 1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on

your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to Appendix B: "Configuring the PC."

2) Power off the router and PC. Then turn on the router and restart the PC. The built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.

Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection between your PC and the router. The following example is in Windows 2000 OS.

Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, then press Enter.

If the result displayed is similar to that shown in figure 4-1, the connection between your PC and the router has been established.

5.7.2 Port Triggering

Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, video conferencing, Internet calling and so on. These applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. Port Triggering is used for some of these applications that can work with an NAT router. You can set up Port Triggering on this page shown in figure 5-27:

Figure 5-27 Port Triggering

Once configured, operation is as follows:

1. A local host makes an outgoing connection using a destination port number defined in the Trigger Port field.

2. The router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this entry in the Port Triggering table, and associates them with the local host.

3. When necessary the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the ports defined in the Incoming Ports field.

- 39 -


Trigger Port - The port for outgoing traffic. An outgoing connection using this port will "Trigger" this rule.

Trigger Protocol - The protocol used for Trigger Ports, either TCP, UDP, or All (all protocols supported by the router).

Incoming Ports Range - The port or port range used by the remote system when it responds to the outgoing request. A response using one of these ports will be forwarded to the PC that triggered this rule. You can input at most 5 groups of ports (or port section). Every group of ports must be set apart with ",". For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.

Incoming Protocol - The protocol used for Incoming Ports Range, either TCP or UDP, or ALL (all protocols supported by the router).

Status - The status of this entry either Enabled or Disabled.

To add a new rule, enter the following data on the Port Triggering screen. 1. Click the Add New button. (pop-up figure 5-28) 2. Enter a port number used by the application when it generates an outgoing

request. 3. Select the protocol used for Trigger Port from the pull-down list, either TCP, UDP,

or All. 4. Enter the range of port numbers used by the remote system when it responds to

the PC's request. 5. Select the protocol used for Incoming Ports Range from the pull-down list, either

TCP or UDP, or All. 6. Select the Enable checkbox to enable. 7. Click the Save button to save the new rule.

Figure 5-28 Add or Modify a Triggering Entry

There are many popular applications in the Popular Application list. You can select it, and the application will fill in the Trigger Port, incoming Ports Range boxes and select the Enable checkbox. It has the same effect as adding a new rule.

connection of other hosts on LAN will be refused. 3. Incoming Port Range cannot overlap each other.

5.7.3 DMZ

The DMZ host feature allows one local host to be exposed to the Internet for a special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing. DMZ host forwards all the ports at the same time. Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its DHCP client function disabled and should have a new static IP Address assigned to it because its IP Address may change when using the DHCP function. You can set up DMZ host on this page shown in figure 5-29:
