Hardware Description

The Wireless Barricade can be connected to the Internet using its RJ-45 WAN port. It can be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network using any of the Fast Ethernet LAN ports. Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate ADSL can provide up to 8 Mbps downstream and 640 Kbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems can provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream. ISDN can provide up to 128 Kbps when using two bearer channels. PSTN analog connections can now run up to 56 Kbps. However, you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits. Although access speed to the Internet is determined by the modem type connected to your Router, data passing between devices connected to your local area network can run up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports. The Wireless Barricade includes an LED display on the front panel for system power and port indications that simplifies installation and network troubleshooting. It also provides 4 RJ-45 LAN ports on the front panel, as well as one RJ-45 WAN port. Full-duplex communications allow data to be sent and received simultaneously, doubling the effective throughput.

4 RJ-45 ports for connection to a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN). These ports can auto-negotiate the operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X (i.e., allowing these ports to be connected to any network device with straight-through cable). These ports can be connected directly to a PC or to a server equipped with an Ethernet network interface card, or to a networking device such as an Ethernet hub or switch. One RJ-45 port for connection to a DSL or cable modem (WAN). This port also auto-negotiates operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X.
The following figure shows the components of the Wireless Barricade:

Broadcast SSID: Broadcasting the SSID on the wireless network for easy connection with client PCs. (Default: Enable) Encryption If you are transmitting sensitive data across wireless channels, you should enable Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption. Encryption requires you to use the same set of encryption/decryption keys for the Wireless Barricade and all of your wireless clients. You can choose between standard 64-bit or the more robust 128-bit encryption.
You may automatically generate encryption keys or manually enter the keys. For automatic 64-bit security, enter a passphrase and click Generate. Four keys will be generated (as shown below). Choose a key from the drop-down list or accept the default key. Automatic 128-bit security generates a single key.
If you use encryption, configure the same keys used for the Wireless Barricade on each of your wireless clients. Note that Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protects data transmitted between wireless nodes, but does not protect any transmissions over your wired network or over the Internet.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
From this section you can configure the Address Mapping, Virtual Server, and Special Application features that provide control over the port openings in the Wireless Barricades firewall. This section can be used to support several Internet based applications such as VPN Address Mapping
Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP.

Virtual Server

If you configure the Wireless Barricade as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as Web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the Wireless Barricade redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address). For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or Web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP Address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them. The more common TCP service ports include: HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110.
Special Applications Some applications, such as Internet gaming, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others, require multiple connections. These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.

Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the protocol type to TCP or UDP, then enter the ports that the application requires. The ports may be in the format 7, 11, 57, or in a range, e.g., 72-96, or a combination of both, e.g., 7, 11, 57, 72-96. For a full list of ports and the services that run on them, see www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.

Advanced Setup Firewall

The Wireless Barricade firewall can provide access control of connected client PCs, block common hacker attacks, including IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack, TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding. The firewall does not significantly affect system performance, so we advise leaving it enabled to protect your network users. Access Control
Using this option allows you to specify different privileges based on IP address for the client PCs.
Note: Click on Add PC and define the appropriate settings for client PC services (as shown in the following screen).

MAC Filtering Table

The MAC Filtering feature of the Wireless Barricade allows you to control access to your network to up to 32 clients based on the MAC (Media Access Control) Address of the client machine. This ID is unique to each network adapter. If the MAC address is listed in the table, that client machine will have access to the network.
URL Blocking To configure the URL Blocking feature, use the table below to specify the websites (www.somesite.com) and/or keywords you want to filter on your network. To complete this configuration, you will need to create or modify an access rule in Access Control on page 53. To modify an existing rule, click the Edit option next to the rule you want to modify. To create a new rule, click on the Add PC option. From the Access Control Add PC section check the option for WWW with URL Blocking in the Client PC Service table to filter out the websites and keywords specified below.

DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)

If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access. Enter the IP address of a DMZ host to this screen. Adding a client to the DMZ may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.
Advanced Setup DDNS (Dynamic DNS) Settings
Domain Name is a series of alphanumeric strings separated by periods, that is the address of a network connection and that identifies the owner of the address. Dynamic DNS provides users on the Internet with a method to tie their domain name(s) to computers or servers. DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP address automatically by having your DNS records changed when your IP address changes. The Server Configuration section automatically opens the port options checked in the Virtual Server section. Simply enter in the IP Address of your server, such as a web server, and then click on the port option HTTP Port 80 so users can access your server from the WAN connection (Internet).
