3.19 VPN A virtual private network (VPN) provides a secure communication with a remote computer or network over a public network such as the Internet. NOTE: Before setting up a VPN connection, you would need the IP address or domain name of the VPN server. To set up access to a VPN server: 1. From the navigation panel, go to General > VPN. 2. On the Enable PPTP VPN Server field, select ON. 3.
3.19.1 VPN Fusion VPN Fusion allows you to connect to multiple VPN servers simultaneously and assign your client devices to connect to different VPN tunnels. Some devices like set-top boxes, smart TVs and Blu-ray players do not support VPN software. This feature provides VPN access to such devices in a home network without having to install VPN software, while your smartphone remains connected to Internet not VPN.
To start, please follow the steps below: 1. Click beside Server List to add a new VPN tunnel. 2. Activate the VPN connection you created in Server List. 3. Click beside Exception List and select the online client you want to configure. 4. Assign a VPN connection to the client device, and click OK. 5. Activate the VPN policy in Exception List, and click Apply at the bottom of the page.
3.19.2 Instant Guard Instant Guard runs your own private VPN server on your own router. When you use a VPN tunnel, all your data passes through the server. With Instant Guard, you’re in total control of your own server, making it the safest possible solution.
3.20 WAN 3.20.1 Internet Connection The Internet Connection screen allows you to configure the settings of various WAN connection types. To configure the WAN connection settings: 1. From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings > WAN > Internet Connection. 2. Configure the following settings below. When done, click Apply. • WAN Connection Type: Choose your Internet Service Provider type. The choices are Automatic IP, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP or static IP.
• Enable WAN: Select Yes to allow the router Internet access. Select No to disable Internet access. • Enable NAT: NAT (Network Address Translation) is a system where one public IP (WAN IP) is used to provide Internet access to network clients with a private IP address in a LAN. The private IP address of each network client is saved in a NAT table and is used to route incoming data packets.
• MAC Address: MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique identifier for your networking device. Some ISPs monitor the MAC address of networking devices that connect to their service and reject any unrecognized device that attempt to connect. To avoid connection issues due to an unregistered MAC address, you can: • Contact your ISP and update the MAC address associated with your ISP service.
3.20.2 Dual WAN Your ASUS wireless router provides dual WAN support. You can set the dual WAN feature to any of these two modes: • Failover Mode: Select this mode to use the secondary WAN as the backup network access. • Load Balance Mode: Select this mode to optimize bandwidth, minimize response time and prevent data overload for both primary and secondary WAN connections.
3.20.3 Port Trigger Port range triggering opens a predetermined incoming port for a limited period of time whenever a client on the local area network makes an outgoing connection to a specified port. Port triggering is used in the following scenarios: • More than one local client needs port forwarding for the same application at a different time. • An application requires specific incoming ports that are different from the outgoing ports. To set up Port Trigger: 1.
• Trigger Port: Specify a trigger port to open the incoming port. • Protocol: Select the protocol, TCP, or UDP. • Incoming Port: Specify an incoming port to receive inbound data from the Internet. • Protocol: Select the protocol, TCP, or UDP. 5. Click the Add to enter the port trigger information to the list. Click the Delete button to remove a port trigger entry from the list. 6. When done, click Apply.
3.20.4 Virtual Server/Port Forwarding Port forwarding is a method to direct network traffic from the Internet to a specific port or a specific range of ports to a device or number of devices on your local network. Setting up Port Forwarding on your router allows PCs outside the network to access specific services provided by a PC in your network. To set up Port Forwarding: 1. From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings > WAN > Virtual Server / Port Forwarding. 2.
5. On the Port Forwarding List table, key in the following information: • Service Name: Enter a service name. • Port Range: If you want to specify a Port Range for clients on the same network, enter the Service Name, the Port Range (e.g. 10200:10300), the LAN IP address, and leave the Local Port empty. Port range accepts various formats such as Port Range (300:350), individual ports (566,789) or Mix (1015:1024,3021).
To check if Port Forwarding has been configured successfully: • Ensure that your server or application is set up and running. • You will need a client outside your LAN but has Internet access (referred to as “Internet client”). This client should not be connected to the ASUS router. • On the Internet client, use the router’s WAN IP to access the server. If port forwarding has been successful, you should be able to access the files or applications.
3.20.5 DMZ Virtual DMZ exposes one client to the Internet, allowing this client to receive all inbound packets directed to your Local Area Network. Inbound traffic from the Internet is usually discarded and routed to a specific client only if port forwarding or a port trigger has been configured on the network. In a DMZ configuration, one network client receives all inbound packets. Setting up DMZ on a network is useful when you need incoming ports open or you want to host a domain, web, or e-mail server.
3.20.6 DDNS Setting up DDNS (Dynamic DNS) allows you to access the router from outside your network through the provided ASUS DDNS Service or another DDNS service. To set up DDNS: 1. From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings > WAN > DDNS. 2. Configure the following settings below. When done, click Apply. • Enable the DDNS Client: Enable DDNS to access the ASUS router via the DNS name rather than WAN IP address. • Server and Host Name: Choose ASUS DDNS or other DDNS.
NOTES: DDNS service will not work under these conditions: • When the wireless router is using a private WAN IP address (192.168. x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16.x.x), as indicated by a yellow text. • The router may be on a network that uses multiple NAT tables. 3.20.7 NAT Passthrough NAT Passthrough allows a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection to pass through the router to the network clients. PPTP Passthrough, L2TP Passthrough, IPsec Passthrough and RTSP Passthrough are enabled by default.
