[. . . ] A Domain Name System (DNS) server is like an index of IP addresses and Web addresses. If you type a Web address into your browser, such as "www. router. com", a DNS server will find that name in its index and the matching IP address. Please select "Use Auto Discovered DNS Server Only" to auto set the DNS Server. If there is a DNS server that you would rather to use, please select "Use Discovered DNS Server Only" and you need to specify the IP address of that DNS server. Enter the ISP's DNS Server IP Address; or you can specify your own preferred DNS Server IP Address. DHCP Starting IP Address IP Pool Count Lease Time DNS Relay Primary DNS Server Secondary DNS Server You can enter another DNS Server's IP Address as a backup. The (Optional) secondary DNS will be used should the Primary DNS fail. 31 AirLive WT-2000ARM User's Manual 5. Interface Setup 5. 3 Wireless Wireless LAN Parameter Access Point Description Activated or deactivated the wireless function of the router. When it is activated, the router will be an access point for other wireless clients to connect wirelessly. The range for the beacon period is between 20 and 1000 with a typical value of 100 (milliseconds). When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet. Fragment Threshold specifies the maximum size of packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. Determines the interval the Access Point will send its broadcast traffic. If there are only 802. 11b wireless clients in the network, you can set the router to this mode. Channel ID Beacon Interval RTS/CTS Threshold Fragmentation Threshold DTIM 802. 11b/g 802. 11 g ­ This router will only work in 802. 11g mode. If there are only 802. 11g wireless clients in the network, you can set the router to this mode. 802. 11 b+g ­ This router will support 802. 11b and 802. 11g communications simultaneously. It is recommended to set this mode. AirLive WT-2000ARM User's Manual 32 4. Quick Start SSID Parameter SSID Description The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a WLAN. Select "Yes" to make the SSID to be visible so wireless clients can scan the router within the network. Wireless clients have to set the same SSID of the router in order to access the network. To prevent unauthorized wireless clients from accessing the router, this router supports WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication type. If the router has enabled the authentication, all the wireless clients' settings have to be consistent with the router for building the connection. Broadcast SSID Authentication Type WEP-64Bits Parameter Description WEP is less level of security than WPA. WEP supports 64-bit and 128-bit key lengths to encrypt the wireless data. [. . . ] This helps provide a sort of firewall and allow for a wider address range to be used internally without danger of conflict. Using the router's NAT capability, you can access the Internet from any computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP. Port Network Clients (LAN PC) uses port numbers to distinguish one network application/protocol over another. Below is a list of common applications and protocol/port numbers: Application Protocol Port Number Telnet TCP 23 FTP TCP 21 SMTP TCP 25 POP3 TCP 110 H. 323 TCP 1720 SNMP UCP 161 SNMP Trap UDP 162 HTTP TCP 80 PPTP TCP 1723 PC Anywhere TCP 5631 PC Anywhere UDP 5632 67 AirLive WT-2000ARM User's Manual 12. The successor to SLIP, PPP provides router-to-router and host-to-network connections over both synchronous and asynchronous circuits. PPPoA (RFC 2364) The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a standard method for transporting multi-protocol data grams over point-to-point links. [. . . ]
