Overview

The Web User Interface (WUI) is one of three router user interfaces. The other interfaces are the Terminal User Interface (TUI) and Command Line Interface (CLI). Each interface allows you to set up, modify, and view router configuration variables and operational data.

The Web User Interface is a system of graphical menus. Menu pages control router parameters and provide information about them. The WUI organizes these router parameters into six topics. Here are the six topics, in the order that the WUI displays them...

•   Quick Setup	•   Firewall Settings
•   Service Provider Settings	•   Tools
•   Network Settings	•   Statistics

This part of the manual discusses all but the Quick Setup topic. You’ll find information on using the Quick Setup feature in the Quick Installation Guide.

This manual begins topic discussions with a picture of the top-level menu screen. A description of screen terms and procedures follows each screen shot. Either text or a table defines screen variables. Afterward, summarized, step-by-step procedures often follow.

Selecting Topics. When you look at a menu page, notice the divider tabs at the very top of the page. You can access any of the six router configuration and information topics by clicking on its tab. The graphic below portrays the six divider tabs as they appear on a menu.

Divider Tabs

Configuration Options. Most menus present configuration options and prompt you for a response. For example, the screen may help you to set up service provider, network or firewall parameters. Some menus offer additional or more specific options by presenting lower-level (secondary) screens. The bottom of many screens includes a set of graphical buttons. Clicking one of the buttons with your mouse determines the disposition of options on the page. For example…

•   Add	•   Delete
•   Modify	•   Disable
•   Configure XXX	•   Erase

Selecting or Enabling Features. You can select menu options by clicking radio buttons or checking boxes on the screen. In either case, use your mouse to make selections. Radio buttons allow you to select only one of several options. Checkboxes allow you to enable none, one or many features. The graphic below includes examples of both radio buttons and checkboxes.

ADSL Standard

The ADSL Standard menu configures the ADSL protocol. You’ll find four supported protocols: Multi-mode, T1.413, G.dmt and G.lite. Your ISP determines the protocol to use. In most cases, Multi-mode should allow a connection to the ISP. 

PPPoE Relay

PPPoE Relay protocol supports multiple PPPoE sessions through the router, on a LAN interface, over an RFC1483 Bridged PVC. The router supports multiple sessions by maintaining a mapping table. In this table, each entry represents one session. The Client / Server side MAC address and the Session Id provide the basis for the mapping. Refer to WAN setup instructions on configuring PPPoE. The PPPoE Relay option requires an ATM PVC (server) and a LAN interface (client). The client initiates a PPPoE session with the server via a third-party PPPoE client. Follow these steps…

1. Configure the client and server.
2. Click Enable to start the relay function.
   

NAPT Bridge

This screen provides the option of enabling or disabling MER PVC. From this screen, you can also change this PVC’s ATM values. The MER Interface is an RFC1483 Bridged PVC, terminated in the router with a static public address. The ISP provides the static public address. This type PVC operates with Network Address Translation (NAT) and DHCP. These protocols allow the router to serve LAN users with private addresses.

Bridging

You can group router LAN interfaces. Grouping allows forwarding of their Ethernet frames to an ATM interface. The USRobotics Ethernet/USB Router defaults to bridging on three ports: ETH1, ETH2 and USB. The router bridges these ports to the atm0 interface or the first PVC under WAN SETUP.

To change the grouping…

1. Click Erase All.
2. Click Interfaces.Choose the desired LAN Interfaces.
3. Click Apply.

To bind the LAN Interfaces to an ATM interface, select “Add Bridge.”

1. Select the ATM Interface from the Interface Name drop-down list.
2. Enter the VPI / VCI to which this ATM circuit belongs. Refer to WAN Setup for information on setting up a bridged PVC.
3. Click Apply.
4. At the List of Bridge Entries, click Enable. This action activates packet forwarding.

 

Advanced

Use the Advanced Interface menu to configure LAN, PPP and ATM interfaces. Follow these steps…

1. Select the Interface Name.
2. Set the IP and Subnet Mask by clicking Configure Interface. Some interfaces allow the option of changing interface status.

Interfaces:

• Interface mer0 usage is reserved. Its status is always Down.

• Interface ADSL0 is the ADSL SNMP interface.

• Interface lo0 is the loopback interface. When you perform an OAM loopback, the status field displays UP.

• Interfaces Atm0 to Atm 7 display the interfaces configured for RFC1483 bridged mode or RFC 1483 routed mode.

• Interfaces pppo to ppp7 display the interfaces configured for PPPoE or PPPoA.

Parameters:

• Dynamic IP address from DHCP: Selecting this option allows the DHCP Server to assign the IP address.

• Static IP address:

Selects the IP address to be statically assigned.

• Interface: The name of the selected interface.

• IP address: The IP address of the selected interface.

• Subnet Mask: The subnet mask of the selected interface.

• MTU: Sets the maximum transmission unit of the interface. The MTU limits the size of packets that transmit on an interface. Not all interfaces support the MTU parameter. Some interfaces, like Ethernet, have range restrictions (80 - 1500).

• Speed: Auto, 10 Mbps, or 100 Mbps.

• State: Enable and Disable. When you set an interface to Disable, the system won’t attempt to transmit messages through that interface. When you set an interface to Enable, you can transmit messages through the interface.

Use the Advance–VCC menu to add and delete ISP connections. This menu also includes options to enter ATM Quality of Service (Qos) parameters. The Advance–VCC menu operates similarly to the WAN Setup menu.

Network Setting Page

LAN Setup

Use LAN Setup to set the router’s IP Address and Subnet Mask. The LAN IP address allows you to connect the router to your LAN. This address also allows you  to manage the router from your LAN. A LAN (Local Area Network) connects computers in the same building or area.

Subnet masks split one network into a set of mini networks or subnets. Subnetting helps to reduce traffic on each subnet. Subnetting also makes the network more manageable. Each subnet functions as if it were an independent network.

To set up the LAN…

1. Enter the LAN IP Address for the router to use on the network.
2. Enter the Subnet Mask for the network that the router connects to.
3. Click Apply.

NOTICE. The LAN setup process changes the IP address of the Web User Interface. The apply action causes the router to save your current configuration and then restart. After the router restarts, you'll have to reapply to the Web User Interface using a new IP address.

DHCP

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol dynamically assigns IP addresses and related information to Local Area Network (LAN) nodes. For temporarily connected network users, DHCP provides safe, reliable, and simple TCP/IP network configuration.

The top DHCP menu screen lists DHCP server entries. To remove the entry…

1. Click the radio button beside the entry.
2. Click Delete.

You can also start or stop the DHCP server by clicking Start/Stop.

To create a new DHCP server entry, click Add.

Note: Before adding a new DHCP server entry, you must first stop the DHCP server.

The following screen appears:

Configure the following parameters:

•Interface. LAN port that the DHCP server will support.

•Starting IP Address. First IP address in a block of addresses. The DHCP server uses this address in responding to a LAN port node’s DHCP request.

•End IP Address. Last IP address in a block of addresses. The DHCP server uses this address in responding to a LAN port node’s DHCP request.

•Gateway. IP address of the Default Gateway or Router that the node will use.

•Netmask. Subnet Mask for the LAN that the node will be on.

•DNS. Domain Name Server. The DNS that the node will use. DNS is a server with a database. The database translates a domain name into a corresponding IP address. For example, “USR.com” resolves into IP address 231.222.320.4. Communications over the LAN between the node and USR.com web site use this address.

•Lease Time. Number of days that the node can use a DHCP lease. Subsequently, you must renew the lease with the DHCP server.

DHCP Relay

Suppose that a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server resides on a different LAN than the node broadcasting for DHCP service. Then the DHCP broadcast request must be forwarded across the router/WAN to a subnet where a DHCP server resides. The router must relay the DHCP request. DHCP relay assures that the requesting node receives an IP address that corresponds to the node’s subnet. The router must have a record of the DHCP server’s IP address.

With this address, the router can correctly direct the request to the appropriate DHCP server.

After you input the IP address into the menu, start the relay agent by clicking Start.

DNS Relay

The DNS Relay function supports forwarding of DNS requests from a LAN node to a known DNS server.

•Domain Name. Internet site address that the router is a group of (i.e. usr.com).

•Primary DNS Server. IP address of the Primary DNS that the router will use. Domain Name Server (DNS) is a server with a database. This server translates a domain name into the corresponding IP address. For example, USR.com resolves into IP address 231.222.320.4. Communications over the LAN between the node and web site USR.com use this address.

•Secondary DNS Server. IP address of the Secondary DNS that the router will use.

•Gateway. IP address of the Default Gateway the Router is to use.

•DNS Relay. Enabling or Disabling router ability to convey a DNS request from a LAN node.

To save and install DNS relay data…

1. Input the data.
2. Click Apply.
   

Routing Setup

A router forwards data packets between local area networks (LANs) or wide area networks (WANs). Based on routing tables and routing protocols, routers read the network address in each transmitted packet. Routers then decide where to send the packet. A router bases this decision on the best route. The Routing Setup menu allows the user to configure how the router forwards received IP packets.

RIP Information

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a routing protocol and is part of the TCP/IP suite. RIP determines a route based on the smallest hop count between source and destination. RIP determines the smallest hop count by communicating with other routers within the network. Only use RIP if the target router also utilizes RIP.

•RIP Status=On/Off selection.

•Version= Version 1 (RIP1) or Version 2 (RIP2). Should match RIP versions used by other routers in the network.

To save and install RIP data…

1. Input the data.
2. Click Apply.

SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a software component that resides in a network device. SNMP responds to requests for information and action from a network management station. Within the network device, an object-like format called a Management Information Base (MIB) stores the information exchanged during SNMP.

SNMP=>System

The System function displays the SNMP parameter as assigned by the SNMP Administrator. Modify the default settings by following these steps...

1. Click Modify.
2. Enter your changes.
3. Click Apply.

NOTICE. To stop the SNMP agent, click Stop. The Stop button toggles to become the Start button. After the process ends, you can start the agent by clicking Start.

Configure the SNMP listening port by following these steps...

1. Click Stop to stop the agent.
2. Click Configure SMNP Agent.
3. Enter your changes.
4. Click Apply.
5. Restart the agent.

SNMP=>Trap

Set the agent to report up or down status by following these steps...

1. Select the version of SNMP manager that the community is running.
2. Click Modify.
3. Enter the SNMP manager's IP address into its community name.
4. Select Enable for that status option.
5. Click Apply.

SNMP=>Community
Set the SNMP manager's IP address and community name for SNMP message exchange by following these steps...

1. Click Configure Community.
2. Enter your changes.
3. Click Apply.

Diagnostic

The Diagnostic feature can generate ATM or IP traffic for troubleshooting or testing your router’s configuration. Sometimes the request for a response fails. The failure may be due to your ISP’s disabling its equipment from responding to these requests. The ISP may disable responses for many reasons, including your security.

Diagnostic=>OAM Loopback

OAM Loopback generates two forms of ATM frames for testing the integrity of your ATM circuit. F5 Segment (F5 SEG) frames transmit, but the ISP’s ATM switch doesn’t loop them back. F5 End-to-End (F5 ETE) frames transmit and the ISP’s ATM switch replies.

To Start the OAM Loopback Test…

1. Select the frame type.
2. Enter an existing PVC (VPI/VCI) for the F5 ETE frames.
3. Enter the ATM switch loopback ID for the F5 ETE frames.
4. Click the Start Loopback to begin the test.
5. After the test completes, a screen reports results. Click Back to return to the Diagnostic screen.

IP Address Ping Test

To Start the Address Ping Test…

1. Enter the IP of the network device that accepts ICMP packets.
2. Click Ping. If someone disabled ICMP packet forwarding on the device, the Ping will fail.

Save and Restart

Whenever you make changes to the router’s configuration, the router saves the changes in temporary memory storage. A power loss or power switch disconnection can cause the router to lose changes. To make permanent changes, save changes and restart the router.

After you click Save, the router returns to the Save and Restart screen. You may reboot your router by clicking Restart. Another way to reboot is to turn the router off and on from the router’s power switch.

CAUTION. The Restart button doesn’t return you to the Save and Restart menu. You can return by either of two methods: Click the browser’s Back Arrow key. Or reenter the router management IP address on your browser’s address line.

Restore and Restart

The Restore and Restart option returns the router’s configuration to factory default settings.

CAUTION. During restoration to default settings, the router loses all your changes. After the restoration process completes, you must reenter changes.

To erase the current router configuration…

1. Click Restore.
2. Click Restart.
3. Allow the router a few minutes to restore to factory settings.
4. Enter the router management IP address in the address line of your browser. The router main menu appears.

Date and Time

To set the router's date and time input...

1. Key in your entry for the "Date" field. Use the format MM:DD:YYYY.
2. Key in your entry for the "Time" screen. Use the format HH:MM:SS.
3. Click Apply.
