Chapter 3 Wizard Setup 802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W This chapter provides information on the Wizard Setup screens in the web configurator. 3.1 Wizard Setup Introduction Use the Wizard Setup screens to configure your system for Internet access settings and fill in the fields with the information in the Internet Account Information table of the Compact Guide or Read Me First. Your ISP may have already configured some of the fields in the wizard screens for you. 3.
access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP. The BIPAC-5100/5100W encapsulates the PPP session based on RFC1483 and sends it through an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) to the Internet Service Provider's (ISP) DSLAM (digital access multiplexer). Please refer to RFC 2364 for more information on PPPoA. Refer to RFC 1661 for more information on PPP. 3.2.
The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL Mode DESCRIPTION From the Mode drop-down list box, select Routing (default) if your ISP allows multiple computers to share an Internet account. Otherwise select Bridge. Encapsulation Select the encapsulation type your ISP uses from the Encapsulation drop-down list box. Choices vary depending on what you select in the Mode field. If you select Bridge in the Mode field, select either PPPoA or RFC 1483.
Where you obtain your network number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your network administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask. If the ISP did not explicitly give you an IP network number, then most likely you have a single user account and the ISP will assign you a dynamic IP address when the connection is established.
ENET ENCAP Gateway fields are not applicable (N/A) as the DHCP server assigns them to the BIPAC-5100/5100W. 3.7.4 Private IP Addresses Every machine on the Internet must have a unique address. If your networks are isolated from the Internet, for example, only between your two branch offices, you can assign any IP addresses to the hosts without problems. However, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following three blocks of IP addresses specifically for private networks: 10.0.0.

Chapter 4 LAN Setup 802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W This chapter describes how to configure LAN settings. 4.1 LAN Overview A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many computers are attached. A LAN is a computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building. The LAN screens can help you configure a LAN DHCP server and manage IP addresses. 4.1.
and vice versa, for example, the IP address of www.billion.com is 204.217.0.2. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it. The DNS server addresses that you enter in the DHCP setup are passed to the client machines along with the assigned IP address and subnet mask. There are two ways that an ISP disseminates the DNS server addresses.
4.4 LAN TCP/IP The BIPAC-5100/5100W has built-in DHCP server capability that assigns IP addresses and DNS servers to systems that support DHCP client capability. 4.4.1 Factory LAN Defaults The LAN parameters of the BIPAC-5100/5100W are preset in the factory with the following values: IP address of 192.168.1.254 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits) DHCP server enabled with 100 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.100. These parameters should work for the majority of installations.
IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data. IGMP version 2 (RFC 2236) is an improvement over version 1 (RFC 1112) but IGMP version 1 is still in wide use. If you would like to read more detailed information about interoperability between IGMP version 2 and version 1, please see sections 4 and 5 of RFC 2236. The class D IP address is used to identify host groups and can be in the range 224.0.0.
LABEL DHCP DESCRIPTION If set to Server, your BIPAC-5100/5100W can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client. If set to None, the DHCP server will be disabled. If set to Relay, the BIPAC-5100/5100W acts as a surrogate DHCP server and relays DHCP requests and responses between the remote server and the clients. Enter the IP address of the actual, remote DHCP server in the Remote DHCP Server field in this case.
Chapter 5 Wireless LAN Setup 802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W This chapter discusses how to configure Wireless LAN on the BIPAC-5100/5100W. 5.1 Wireless LAN Overview This section introduces the wireless LAN and some basic configurations. Wireless LANs can be as simple as two computers with wireless LAN cards communicating in a peer-to-peer network or as complex as a number of computers with wireless LAN cards communicating through access points which bridge network traffic to the wired LAN.
Therefore, they are considered hidden from each other. When station A sends data to the BIPAC-5100/5100W, it might not know that the station B is already using the channel. If these two stations send data at the same time, collisions may occur when both sets of data arrive at the AP at the same time, resulting in a loss of messages for both stations. RTS/CTS is designed to prevent collisions due to hidden nodes.
5.2 Levels of Security Wireless security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless stations, access points and the wired network. The figure below shows the possible wireless security levels on your BIPAC-5100/5100W. The highest security level relies on EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) for authentication and utilizes dynamic WEP key exchange.
The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL ESSID DESCRIPTION The ESSID (Extended Service Set Identification) is a unique name to identify the BIPAC-5100/5100W in the wireless LAN. Wireless stations associating to the BIPAC-5100/5100W must have the same ESSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 characters). Hide ESSID Select Yes to hide the ESSID in so a station cannot obtain the ESSID through passive scanning.
Threshold messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between 256 and 2432. WEP Encryption WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encrypts data frames before transmitting over the wireless network. Select Disable to allow all wireless computers to communicate with the access points without any data encryption. Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to use data encryption. Key 1 to Key 4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data.
The following table describes the labels in this menu. LABEL DESCRIPTION Active Select Yes from the drop down list box to enable MAC address filtering.

Chapter 6 WAN Setup 802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W This chapter describes how to configure WAN settings. 6.1 WAN Overview A WAN (Wide Area Network) is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. See the Wizard Setup chapter for more information on the fields in the WAN screens. 6.2 PPPoE Encapsulation The BIPAC-5100/5100W supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet).
6.3 PPTP Encapsulation Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a network protocol that enables secure transfer of data from a remote client to a private server, creating a Virtual Private Network (VPN) using TCP/IP-based networks. PPTP supports on-demand, multi-protocol and virtual private networking over public networks, such as the Internet. 6.
6.5 Configuring WAN Setup To change your BIPAC-5100/5100W’s WAN remote node settings, click WAN. The screen differs by the encapsulation. 6.5.1 PPP Half Bridge When the PPP Half Bridge is enabled the BIPAC-5100/5100W becomes invisible. The DHCP server will duplicate the WAN IP address from the ISP to the local client PC. Only one PC is able to access the Internet using half bridge mode.
issues. Before deciding to use half bridge mode please check to see if the application can be made to work using the virtual server port forwarding feature on the BIPAC-5100/5100W. Using NAT/NAPT is preferable as it provides the first line of defence against attack from hackers/crackers and allows the connection of more than one computer. The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Name Enter the name of your Internet Service Provider, e.g., MyISP. This information is for identification purposes only. Mode Select Routing (default) from the drop-down list box if your ISP allows multiple computers to share an Internet account. Otherwise select Bridge. Encapsulation Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the drop-down list box. Choices vary depending on the mode you select in the Mode field.

The Connection BIPAC-5100/5100W will try to bring up the connection automatically if it is disconnected.
Chapter 7 Network Address Translation (NAT) 802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W This chapter discusses how to configure NAT on the BIPAC-5100/5100W. 7.1 NAT Overview NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet, for example, the source address of an outgoing packet, used within one network to a different IP address known within another network. 7.1.
WAN. 7.1.2 What NAT Does In the simplest form, NAT changes the source IP address in a packet received from a subscriber (the inside local address) to another (the inside global address) before forwarding the packet to the WAN side. When the response comes back, NAT translates the destination address (the inside global address) back to the inside local address before forwarding it to the original inside host. Note that the IP address (either local or global) of an outside host is never changed.
7.1.4 NAT Application The following figure illustrates a possible NAT application, where three inside LANs (logical LANs using IP Alias) behind the BIPAC-5100/5100W can communicate with three distinct WAN networks. More examples follow at the end of this chapter. 7.1.5 NAT Mapping Types NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are: 1. One to One: In One-to-One mode, the BIPAC-5100/5100W maps one local IP address to one global IP address. 2.
ILA2 IGA2 ILA3 IGA1 ILA4 IGA2 … Many-to-Many No Overload ILA1 IGA1 ILA2 IGA2 ILA3 IGA3 … Server Server 1 IP IGA1 Server 2 IP IGA1 Server 3 IP IGA1 7.2 SUA (Single User Account) Versus NAT SUA (Single User Account) is a implementation of a subset of NAT that supports two types of mapping, Many-to-One and Server.
7.3.1 Port Forwarding: Services and Port Numbers A NAT server set is a list of inside (behind NAT on the LAN) servers, for example, web or FTP, that you can make accessible to the outside world even though NAT makes your whole inside network appear as a single machine to the outside world. Use the SUA Server page to forward incoming service requests to the server(s) on your local network.
7.4 Selecting the NAT Mode Click NAT to open the following screen. The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL DESCRIPTION None Select this radio button to disable NAT. SUA Only Select this radio button if you have just one public WAN IP address for your BIPAC-5100/5100W. The BIPAC-5100/5100W uses Address Mapping Set 1 in the NAT - Edit SUA/NAT Server Set screen. Edit Details Click this link to go to the NAT - Edit SUA/NAT Server Set screen.
The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL Start Port No. DESCRIPTION Enter a port number in this field. To forward only one port, enter the port number again in the End Port No. field. To forward a series of ports, enter the start port number here and the end port number in the End Port No. field. End Port No. Enter a port number in this field. To forward only one port, enter the port number again in the Start Port No. field above and then enter it again in this field.
that you specify. When a rule matches the current packet, the BIPAC-5100/5100W takes the corresponding action and the remaining rules are ignored. If there are any empty rules before your new configured rule, your configured rule will be pushed up by that number of empty rules. For example, if you have already configured rules 1 to 6 in your current set and now you configure rule number 9. In the set summary screen, the new rule will be rule 7, not 9.
This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port address translation), Billion's Single User Account feature that previous Billion routers supported only. M-M Ov (Overload): Many-to-Many Overload mode maps multiple local IP addresses to shared global IP addresses. MM No (No Overload): Many-to-Many No Overload mode maps each local IP address to unique global IP addresses. Server: This type allows you to specify inside servers of different services behind the NAT to be accessible to the outside world.
local IP address to unique global IP addresses. 5. Server: This type allows you to specify inside servers of different services behind the NAT to be accessible to the outside world. Local Start IP This is the starting Inside Local IP Address (ILA). Local IP addresses are N/A for Server port mapping. Local End IP This is the end Inside Local IP Address (ILA). If your rule is for all local IP addresses, then enter 0.0.0.0 as the Local Start IP address and 255.255.255.255 as the Local End IP address.
