Preparing to Install 1. Introduction The VisionNet ADSL 201ER router has an integrated ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line)modem which enables high speed Internet access from your Ethernet local area network (LAN). The 201ER brings high-speed connections to home users, small offices and telecommuters. The ADSL 201ER is designed to “plug and play”. Setup of the 201ER is as simple as connecting it to a PC that is equipped with an Ethernet adapter card and then connecting it to an ADSL outlet. 2.

The 201ER has the capability of defining 8 VC’s (Virtual Circuit). You can configure ATM parameters for each virtual circuit which do not affect other virtual circuits.
DNS Proxy Selection There are four options to choose from: Auto Discovery + User Configured This option will automatically discover your DNS server if provided by your ISP. In most all PPP and DHCP client configurations, your ISP will download the DNS addresses as part of the auto negotiation. If the DNS addresses are not provided, you can configure then manually. This option will first look for auto-discovery DNS and then at the DNS defined in the 201ER.
Use User Defined DNS Servers Only You must enter the DNS addresses in the Primary and Secondary fields. Disable DNS Proxy The 200ER will not resolve DNS requests. You must enter the DNS values in your TCP/IP properties in your PC. Primary DNS /Secondary DNS: The Primary DNS and Secondary DNS are provided by your ISP. In PPPoE and PPPoA, the DNS addresses are usually negotiated automatically. Disconnect timeout: This value will disconnect your PPP session if there is no WAN (Internet) activity.
Supplier: RIP advertisements are transmitted in intervals depending on your setting for Interval. Select the True to enable or False to disable this function from the pull-down menu. Gateway: When the value of Gateway is True, RIP advertisements include a default gateway. Multicast: When the value of Multicast is True, received broadcast RIP messages are ignored, and received multicast RIP messages are accepted.
▶ NAT Page a. Click the NAT option in the Configuration menu and you will see the following screen. b. Network Address Transfer (NAT) can correlate virtual IP/Global IP statically or dynamically. Use the pull-down menu to choose NAPT, NAT or Disabled. NAPT is set as the default.

NAT is only used when you have configured multiple virtual PVC’s.
▶ Virtual Server Page a. Click the Virtual Server option in the Configuration menu and you will see the following screen. ☞ Definitions Virtual Server: Virtual Server allows you to pass specific types of network traffic through the 201ER’s NAPT interfaces. For example, you can pass selected types of network traffic such as Telnet requests or HTTP (Web) connections, to a specific host behind the 201ER’s LAN side devices.
Note: If you need to host a Web Server, you must change the HTTP management port in the MISC configuration page to something other than port 80. b. Enter an ID number to specify the virtual server. Enter the Public Port number which corresponds to the applications port (Ex. Telnet uses port 23). DQ Technology has predefined common applications for ease of configuration. c. Enter the Private Port number which is the port number you forward to the specified IP address.
▶ Bridge Filtering Page a. Click the Bridge Filtering option in the Configuration menu and you will see the following screen. b. You can control the flow of packets across the router using this function. Bridge filtering lets you deny or allow packets to cross the network based on the MAC address and position of the address within the packet. This enables you to restrict or forward messages with a specified address passing through the LAN to WAN.
a. Click the Misc Configuration option in the Configuration menu and you will see the following screen. b. If you want to enable DMZ, make sure the NAT or NAPT function is enabled (please refer to the section describing NAT in this manual). Choose Enabled for DMZ and fill in the host IP in the DMZ HOST IP to enable the DMZ function. c. If you want to enable DHCP Relay, you must enter the IP address of the DHCP server in the DHCP Target IP. d.
DMZ: DMZ is an acronym for demilitarized zone. It is a common area between two different networks, such as the Internet and a secure private network. When enabled, all traffic initiated from the Internet to the 201ER will be directed to 1 defined IP address on the LAN. Some companies prefer, for security reasons, to use a DMZ to locate secure servers that will be accessed by outside trusted entities instead of placing those servers on their private network.
