On the following screen, complete the form and click Apply/Save to create a policy.     Field  Description Policy Name  Name of the route policy Physical LAN Port  Specify the port to use this route policy Source IP  IP Address to be routed Use Interface  Interface that traffic will be directed to Default Gateway IP  IP Address of the default gateway
   826.4.4 RIP To activate RIP, configure the RIP version/operation mode and select the Enabled checkbox  for at least one WAN interface before clicking Save/Apply.
   836.5 Interface Grouping  Interface Grouping supports multiple ports to PVC and bridging groups. Each group performs as an independent network. To use this feature, you must create mapping groups with appropriate LAN and WAN interfaces using the Add button.   The Remove button removes mapping groups, returning the ungrouped interfaces to the Default group. Only the default group has an IP interface.    To add an Interface Group, click the Add button. The following screen will appear.   It lists the available and grouped interfaces. Follow the instructions shown onscreen.
   84   Automatically Add Clients With Following DHCP Vendor IDs:  Add support to automatically map LAN interfaces to PVC's using DHCP vendor ID (option 60). The local DHCP server will decline and send the requests to a remote DHCP server by mapping the appropriate LAN interface. This will be turned on when Interface Grouping is enabled.  For example, imagine there are 2 WAN services, an IPoE and a PPPoE. IPoE is for IP set-top box (video). The LAN interfaces are ETH1, ETH2, ETH3, and ETH4.    The Interface Grouping configuration will be:  1. Default: ETH1, ETH2, ETH3, and ETH4. 2. Video: ipoe_eth0. The DHCP vendor ID is "Video".
   85If the onboard DHCP server is running on "Default" and the remote DHCP server is running on IPoE (i.e. for set-top box use only). LAN side clients can get IP addresses from the CPE's DHCP server and access the Internet via PPPoE .  If a set-top box is connected to ETH1 and sends a DHCP request with vendor ID "Video", CPE will forward this request to the remote DHCP server. The Interface Grouping configuration will automatically change to the following:  1. Default: ETH2, ETH3, and ETH4 2. Video: ipoe_eth0, and ETH1.

   946.10 Wireless 6.10.1 Basic The Basic option allows you to configure basic features of the wireless LAN interface. Among other things, you can enable or disable the wireless LAN interface, hide the network from active scans, set the wireless network name (also known as SSID) .    Click Apply/Save to apply the selected wireless options.   Consult the table below for descriptions of these options.   Option  Description Enable Wireless A checkbox  that enables or disables the wireless LAN interface.   When selected, a set of basic wireless options will appear. Hide Access Point Select Hide Access Point to protect the access point from detection by wireless active scans. To check AP status in Windows XP, open Network Connections from the start Menu and select View Available Network Connections. If the access point is hidden, it will not be listed there. To connect a client to a hidden access point, the station must add the access point manually to its wireless configuration.
   95Option  Description Clients Isolation When enabled, it prevents client PCs from seeing one another in My Network Places or Network Neighborhood. Also, prevents one wireless client communicating with another wireless client. Disable WMM Advertise      Stops the router from ‘advertising’ its Wireless Multimedia (WMM) functionality, which provides basic quality of service for time-sensitive applications (e.g. VoIP, Video). Enable Wireless Multicast Forwarding Select the checkbox  to enable this function. SSID  [1-32 characters] Sets the wireless network name. SSID stands for Service Set Identifier. All stations must be configured with the correct SSID to access the WLAN. If the SSID does not match, that user will not be granted access.   BSSID  The BSSID is a 48-bit identity used to identify a particular BSS (Basic Service Set) within an area.    In Infrastructure BSS networks, the BSSID is the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the AP (Access Point); and in Independent BSS or ad hoc networks, the BSSID is generated randomly. Country US= worldwideMax Clients  The maximum number of clients that can access the router. Wireless - Guest / Virtual Access Points This router supports multiple SSIDs called Guest SSIDs or Virtual Access Points. To enable one or more Guest SSIDs select the checkboxes  in the Enabled column. To hide a Guest SSID select its checkbox  in the Hidden column.    Do the same for Isolate Clients and Disable WMM Advertise.  For a description of these two functions, see the previous entries for “Clients Isolation” and “Disable WMM Advertise”. Similarly, for Enable WMF, Max Clients and BSSID, consult the matching entries in this table.  NOTE: Remote wireless hosts cannot scan Guest SSIDs.
   966.10.2 Security The following screen appears when Wireless Security is selected. The options shown here allow you to configure security features of the wireless LAN interface.    Please see 6.10.3 WPS for WPS setup instructions.  Click Apply/Save to implement new configuration settings. WIRELESS SECURITY  Setup requires that the user configure these settings using the Web User Interface (see the table below).   Select SSID Select the wireless network name from the drop-down menu. SSID stands for Service Set Identifier.    All stations must be configured with the correct SSID to access the WLAN. If the SSID does not match, that client will not be granted access.  Network Authentication This option specifies whether a network key is used for authentication to the wireless network.    If network authentication is set to Open, then no authentication is provided.    Despite this, the identity of the client is still verified.      Each authentication type has its own settings.    For example, selecting 802.1X authentication will reveal the RADIUS Server IP address, Port and Key fields.    WEP Encryption will also be enabled as shown below.  Different authentication type pops up different settings requests.  Choosing 802.1X, enter RADIUS Server IP address, RADIUS Port, RADIUS key and Current Network Key.
   97 Also, enable WEP Encryption and select Encryption Strength.    Select the Current Network Key and enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128-bit encryption keys and enter 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bit encryption keys.  Choosing WPA, you must enter WPA Group Rekey Interval.       Choosing WPA-PSK, you must enter WPA Pre-Shared Key and Group Rekey Interval.
   98  WEP Encryption This option specifies whether data sent over the network is encrypted. The same network key is used for data encryption and network authentication. Four network keys can be defined although only one can be used at any one time. Use the Current Network Key list box to select the appropriate network key.    Security options include authentication and encryption services based on the wired equivalent privacy (WEP) algorithm.    WEP is a set of security services used to protect 802.11 networks from unauthorized access, such as eavesdropping; in this case, the capture of wireless network traffic.     When data encryption is enabled, secret shared encryption keys are generated and used by the source station and the destination station to alter frame bits, thus avoiding disclosure to eavesdroppers.  Under shared key authentication, each wireless station is assumed to have received a secret shared key over a secure channel that is independent from the 802.11 wireless network communications channel. Encryption Strength This drop-down list box will display when WEP Encryption is enabled.    The key strength is proportional to the number of binary bits comprising the key.    This means that keys with a greater number of bits have a greater degree of security and are considerably more difficult to crack.    Encryption strength can be set to either 64-bit or 128-bit.    A 64-bit key is equivalent to 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal numbers.    A 128-bit key contains 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal numbers.    Each key contains a 24-bit header (an initiation vector) which enables parallel decoding of multiple streams of encrypted data.
   996.10.3 WPS Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an industry standard that simplifies wireless security setup for certified network devices. Every WPS certified device has both a  PIN number and a push  button, located on th e device or accesse d through device software. The WR-6891u has a WPS button on the device.  Devices with the WPS logo (shown here) support WPS. If the WPS logo is not present on your device it still may support WPS, in this case, c heck the device documentation for the phrase “Wi-Fi Protected Setup”.  NOTE:  WPS is only  available in Open, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK and Mixed WPA2/WPA-PSK network authentication modes.  O ther authentication modes do not use WPS so they must be configured manually.  To configure security settings with WPS, follow the procedures below. You must choose either the Push-Button or PIN configuration method for Steps 6 and 7. I. Setup Step 1:  Enable WPS by selecting Enabled from the drop down list box shown.       Step 2:  Set the WPS AP Mode. Configured is used when the WR-6891u will assign security settings to clients. Unconfigured is used when an external client assigns security settings to the WR-6891u.      NOTES:  Your client may or may not have the ability to provide security settings to the WR-6891u. If it does not, then you must set the WPS AP mode to Configured. Consult the device documentation to check its capabilities.    In addition, using Windows 7, you can add an external registrar using the Config AP button (Appendix F - WPS OPERATION has detailed instructions).

In Access Point mode, wireless bridge functionality will still be available and wireless stations will be able to associate to the AP.     Bridge Restrict  Selecting Disabled disables wireless bridge restriction, which means that any wireless bridge will be granted access.   Selecting Enabled or Enabled (Scan) enables wireless bridge restriction. Only those bridges selected in the Remote Bridges list will be granted access. Click Refresh to update the station list when Bridge Restrict is enabled.
   1036.10.6 Advanced The Advanced screen allows you to configure advanced features of the wireless LAN interface. You can select a particular channel on which to operate, force the transmission rate to a particular speed, set the fragmentation threshold, set the RTS threshold, set the wakeup interval for clients in power-save mode, set the beacon interval for the access point, set XPress mode and set whether short or long preambles are used. Click Apply/Save to set new advanced wireless options.     Field  Description Band  Set to 2.4 GHz for compatibility with IEEE 802.11x standards. The new amendment allows IEEE 802.11n units to fall back to slower speeds so that legacy IEEE 802.11x devices can coexist in the same network. IEEE 802.11g creates data-rate parity at 2.4 GHz with the IEEE 802.11a standard, which has a 54 Mbps rate at 5 GHz. (IEEE 802.11a has other differences compared to IEEE 802.11b or g, such as offering more channels.) Channel  Drop-down menu that allows selection of a specific channel.
   104Field  Description Auto Channel Timer (min) Auto channel scan timer in minutes (0 to disable) 802.11n/EWC  An equipment interoperability standard setting based on IEEE 802.11n Draft 2.0 and Enhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC) Bandwidth  Select 20MHz or 40MHz bandwidth. 40MHz bandwidth uses two adjacent 20MHz bands for increased data throughput. Control Sideband  Select Upper or Lower sideband when in 40MHz mode. 802.11n Rate  Set the physical transmission rate (PHY). 802.11n Protection  Turn Off for maximized throughput.     Turn On for greater security. Support 802.11n Client Only Turn Off to allow 802.11b/g clients access to the router. Turn On to prohibit 802.11b/g client’s access to the router. RIFS Advertisement  One of several draft-n features designed to improve efficiency. Provides a shorter delay between OFDM transmissions than in802.11a or g. OBSS Co-Existence  Co-existence between 20 MHZ AND 40 MHZ overlapping Basic Service Set (OBSS) in WLAN. RX Chain Power Save  Enabling this feature turns off one of the Receive chains, going from 2x2 to 2x1 to save power. RX Chain Power Save Quiet Time The number of seconds the traffic must be below the PPS value below before the Rx Chain Power Save feature activates itself. RX Chain Power Save PPS The maximum number of packets per seconds that can be processed by the WLAN interface for a duration of Quiet Time, described above, before the Rx Chain Power Save feature activates itself. 54g Rate  Drop-down menu that specifies the following fixed rates:   Auto: Default.    Uses the 11 Mbps data rate when possible but drops to lower rates when necessary.    1 Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, or 11Mbps fixed rates.    The appropriate setting is dependent on signal strength. Multicast Rate  Setting for multicast packet transmit rate (1-54 Mbps) Basic Rate  Setting for basic transmission rate. Fragmentation Threshold A threshold, specified in bytes, that determines whether packets will be fragmented and at what size.    On an 802.11 WLAN, packets that exceed the fragmentation threshold are fragmented, i.e., split into, smaller units suitable for the circuit size.    Packets smaller than the specified fragmentation threshold value are not fragmented.    Enter a value between 256 and 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, try to slightly increase your Fragmentation Threshold.    The value should remain at its default setting of 2346.  Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor performance.
   105Field  Description RTS Threshold  Request to Send, when set in bytes, specifies the packet size beyond which the WLAN Card invokes its RTS/CTS mechanism.  Packets that exceed the specified RTS threshold trigger the RTS/CTS mechanism.    The NIC transmits smaller packet without using RTS/CTS.    The default setting of 2347 (maximum length) disables RTS Threshold. DTIM Interval  Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is also known as Beacon Rate.    The entry range is a value between 1 and 65535. A DTIM is a countdown variable that informs clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.    When the AP has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value.    AP Clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.    The default is 1. Beacon Interval  The amount of time between beacon transmissions in milliseconds.    The default is 100 ms and the acceptable range is 1 – 65535.   The beacon transmissions identify the presence of an access point.   By default, network devices passively scan all RF channels listening for beacons coming from access points.    Before a station enters power save mode, the station needs the beacon interval to know when to wake up to receive the beacon (and learn whether there are buffered frames at the access point).     Global Max Clients  The maximum number of clients that can connect to the router. Xpress TM Technology  Xpress Technology is compliant with draft specifications of two planned wireless industry standards. Transmit Power  Set the power output (by percentage) as desired. WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) The technology maintains the priority of audio, video and voice applications in a Wi-Fi network. It allows multimedia service get higher priority. WMM No Acknowledgement Refers to the acknowledge policy used at the MAC level. Enabling no Acknowledgement can result in more efficient throughput but higher error rates in a noisy Radio Frequency (RF) environment. WMM APSD  This is Automatic Power Save Delivery. It saves power.

   126Appendix A - Firewall STATEFUL PACKET INSPECTION Refers to an architecture, where the firewall keeps track of packets on each connection traversing all its interfaces and makes sure they are valid. This is in contrast to static packet filtering which only examines a packet based on the information in the packet header. DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK Is an incident in which a user or organization is deprived of the services of a resource they would normally expect to have. Various DoS attacks the device can withstand are ARP Attack, Ping Attack, Ping of Death, Land, SYN Attack, Smurf Attack, and Tear Drop. TCP/IP/PORT/INTERFACE FILTER These rules help in the filtering of traffic at the Network layer (i.e. Layer 3). When a Routing interface is created, Enable Firewall must be checked. Navigate to Advanced Setup  Security  IP Filtering. OUTGOING IP FILTER Helps in setting rules to DROP packets from the LAN interface. By default, if the Firewall is Enabled, all IP traffic from the LAN is allowed. By setting up one or more filters, specific packet types coming from the LAN can be dropped.     Example 1:  Filter Name      : Out_Filter1 Protocol    : TCP Source IP address    : 192.168.1.45 Source Subnet Mask  : 255.255.255.0 Source Port      : 80 Dest. IP Address    : NA Dest. Subnet Mask   : NA Dest. Port      : NA   This filter will Drop all TCP packets coming from the LAN with IP Address/Subnet Mask of 192.168.1.45/24 having a source port of 80 irrespective of the destination. All other packets will be Accepted.  Example 2:  Filter Name      : Out_Filter2 Protocol    : UDP Source IP Address    : 192.168.1.45 Source Subnet Mask  : 255.255.255.0 Source Port      : 5060:6060 Dest. IP Address    : 172.16.13.4 Dest. Subnet Mask   : 255.255.255.0 Dest. Port      : 6060:7070  This filter will drop all UDP packets coming from the LAN with IP Address / Subnet Mask of 192.168.1.45/24 and a source port range of 5060 to 6060, destined to 172.16.13.4/24 and a destination port range of 6060 to 7070. INCOMING IP FILTER Helps in setting rules to Allow or Deny packets from the WAN interface. By default, all incoming IP traffic from the WAN is Blocked, if the Firewall is Enabled. By setting up one or more filters, specific packet types coming from the WAN can be Accepted.
   127  Example 1:  Filter Name      : In_Filter1 Protocol    : TCP Policy    : Allow Source IP Address    : 210.168.219.45 Source Subnet Mask  : 255.255.0.0 Source Port      : 80 Dest. IP Address    : NA Dest. Subnet Mask   : NA Dest. Port      : NA Selected WAN interface : br0  This filter will ACCEPT all TCP packets coming from WAN interface “br0” with IP Address/Subnet Mask 210.168.219.45/16 with a source port of 80, irrespective of the destination. All other incoming packets on this interface are DROPPED.  Example 2:  Filter Name      : In_Filter2 Protocol    : UDP Policy    : Allow Source IP Address    : 210.168.219.45 Source Subnet Mask  : 255.255.0.0 Source Port      : 5060:6060 Dest. IP Address    : 192.168.1.45 Dest. Sub. Mask    : 255.255.255.0 Dest. Port      : 6060:7070 Selected WAN interface : br0   This rule will ACCEPT all UDP packets coming from WAN interface “br0” with IP Address/Subnet Mask 210.168.219.45/16 and a source port in the range of 5060 to 6060, destined to 192.168.1.45/24 and a destination port in the range of 6060 to 7070. All other incoming packets on this interface are DROPPED.   MAC LAYER FILTER These rules help in the filtering of Layer 2 traffic. MAC Filtering is only effective in Bridge mode. After a Bridge mode connection is created, navigate to Advanced Setup  Security  MAC Filtering in the WUI.  Example 1:  Global Policy      : Forwarded Protocol Type      : PPPoE Dest. MAC Address   : 00:12:34:56:78:90 Source MAC Address  : NA Src. Interface     : eth1 Dest. Interface    : eth2  Addition of this rule drops all PPPoE frames going from eth1 to eth2 with a Destination MAC Address of 00:12:34:56:78:90 irrespective of its Source MAC Address. All other frames on this interface are forwarded.  Example 2:  Global Policy      : Blocked Protocol Type      : PPPoE Dest. MAC Address   : 00:12:34:56:78:90 Source MAC Address  : 00:34:12:78:90:56 Src. Interface     : eth1 Dest. Interface    : eth2
   128 Addition of this rule forwards all PPPoE frames going from eth1 to eth2 with a Destination MAC Address of 00:12:34:56:78 and Source MAC Address of 00:34:12:78:90:56. All other frames on this interface are dropped.  DAYTIME PARENTAL CONTROL This feature restricts access of a selected LAN device to an outside Network through the WR-6891u , as per chosen days of the week and the chosen times.  Example:  User Name      : FilterJohn Browser's MAC Address : 00:25:46:78:63:21 Days of the Week    : Mon, Wed, Fri Start Blocking Time  : 14:00 End Blocking Time   : 18:00  With this rule, a LAN device with MAC Address of 00:25:46:78:63:21 will have no access to the WAN on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, from 2pm to 6pm. On all other days and times, this device will have access to the outside Network.

   132Appendix D - SSH Client Unlike Microsoft Windows, Linux OS has a ssh client included.    For Windows users, there is a public domain one called “putty” that can be downloaded from here:  http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html  To access the ssh client you must first enable SSH access for the LAN or WAN from the Management  Access Control  Services menu in the web user interface.      To access the router using the Linux ssh client    For LAN access, type: ssh -l root 192.168.1.1  For WAN access, type: ssh -l support WAN IP address  To access the router using the Windows “putty” ssh client  For LAN access, type: putty -ssh -l root 192.168.1.1  For WAN access, type: putty -ssh -l support WAN IP address  NOTE:  The WAN IP address can be found on the Device Info  WAN screen
   133Appendix E - Connection Setup Creating a WAN connection is a two-stage process.   1 - Setup a Layer 2 Interface    2 - Add a WAN connection to the Layer 2 Interface.  The following sections describe each stage in turn. E1 ~ Layer 2 Interface Every layer2 interface operates in Multi-Service Connection (VLAN MUX) mode, which supports multiple connections over a single interface. Note that PPPoA and IPoA connection types are not supported for Ethernet WAN interfaces. After adding WAN connections to an interface, you must also create an Interface Group to connect LAN/WAN interfaces.
   134 ETHERNET Interfaces Follow these procedures to configure a PTM interface.       STEP 1:  Go to Basic Setup    WAN Setup  Select ETHERNET Interface from the drop-down menu.       This table is provided here for ease of reference.   Heading  Description Interface/ (Name)  WAN interface name. Connection Mode  Default Mode – Single service over one interface. Vlan Mux Mode – Multiple Vlan services over one interface. Remove  Select interfaces to remove.  STEP 2:  Click Add to proceed to the next screen.
   135   STEP 3:  Select an Ethernet port and Click Apply/Save to confirm your choices.    On the next screen, check that the ETHERNET interface is added to the list.         Note: A new parameter will be added to the screen:       Select WAN media type to apply: Select from the drop-down menu and click the Apply button.
   136E2 ~ WAN Connections The WR-6891u supports one WAN connection for each interface, up to a maximum of 16 connections.  To setup a WAN connection follow these instructions.  Note: Before you start, it is necessary to select the WAN media type from the drop-down menu and click the Apply button.       STEP 1:  Go to Basic Setup    WAN Setup.   Note: PPP Redirect: if enabled (i.e. the enable radio button is selected) the function would make an ISP Login Failed window pop up (shown below) if the user logged in with an invalid PPP password while trying to surfing the web.  You must reboot the router to make the new configuration effective.
   137STEP 2:  Click Add to create a WAN connection. The following screen will display.     STEP 3:  Choose a layer 2 interface from the drop-down menu and click Next.  The WAN Service Configuration screen will display as shown below.      NOTE:  The WAN services shown here are those supported by the layer 2 interface you selected in the previous step. If you wish to change your selection click the Back button and select a different layer 2 interface.
   138STEP 4:  For VLAN Mux Connections only, you must enter Priority & VLAN ID tags.     STEP 5:  You will now follow the instructions specific to the WAN service type you wish to establish. This list should help you locate the correct procedure: (1) For PPP over ETHERNET (PPPoE), go to page 139. (2) For IP over ETHERNET (IPoE), go to page 144. (3) For Bridging, go to page 148.  The subsections that follow continue the WAN service setup procedure.
   139E2.1 PPP over ETHERNET (PPPoE) STEP 1:  Select the PPP over Ethernet radio button and click Next. You can also enable IPv6 by ticking the checkbox  at the bottom of this screen.    STEP 2:  On the next screen, enter the PPP settings as provided by your ISP.   Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
   140  The settings shown above are described below. PPP SETTINGS The PPP Username, PPP password and the PPPoE Service Name entries are dependent on the particular requirements of the ISP.    The user name can be a maximum of 256 characters and the password a maximum of 32 characters in length. For Authentication Method, choose from AUTO, PAP, CHAP, and MSCHAP.
   141ENABLE FULLCONE NAT This option becomes available when NAT is enabled. Known as one-to-one NAT, all requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port. An external host can send a packet to the internal host, by sending a packet to the mapped external address. DIAL ON DEMAND The WR-6891u can be configured to disconnect if there is no activity for a period of time by selecting the Dial on demand checkbox .    You must also enter an inactivity timeout period in the range of 1 to 4320 minutes.       PPP IP EXTENSION The PPP IP Extension is a special feature deployed by some service providers.   Unless your service provider specifically requires this setup, do not select it.    PPP IP Extension does the following:  •  Allows only one PC on the LAN. •  Disables NAT and Firewall. •  The device becomes the default gateway and DNS server to the PC through DHCP using the LAN interface IP address. •  The device extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the LAN PC.    i.e. the PC becomes a host belonging to the same IP subnet. •  The device bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is addressed to the device’s LAN IP address. •  The public IP address assigned by the remote side using the PPP/IPCP protocol is actually not used on the WAN PPP interface.    Instead, it is forwarded to the PC LAN interface through DHCP.    Only one PC on the LAN can be connected to the remote, since the DHCP server within the device has only a single IP address to assign to a LAN device. ENABLE NAT If the LAN is configured with a private IP address, the user should select this checkbox . The NAT submenu will appear in the Advanced Setup menu after reboot.   On the other hand, if a private IP address is not used on the LAN side (i.e. the LAN side is using a public IP), this checkbox  should not be selected to free up system resources for better performance.     ENABLE FIREWALL If this checkbox  is selected, the Security submenu will be displayed on the Advanced Setup menu after reboot. If firewall is not necessary, this checkbox  should not be selected to free up system resources for better performance.     USE STATIC IPv4 ADDRESS Unless your service provider specially requires it, do not select this checkbox .  If selected, enter the static IP address in the IPv4 Address field.   Don’t forget to adjust the IP configuration to Static IP Mode as described in section 3.2.
   142FIXED MTU Maximum Transmission Unit. The size (in bytes) of largest protocol data unit which the layer can pass onwards.   ENABLE PPP DEBUG MODE When this option is selected, the system will put more PPP connection information into the system log.    This is for debugging errors and not for normal usage. BRIDGE PPPOE FRAMES BETWEEN WAN AND LOCAL PORTS  (This option is hidden when PPP IP Extension is enabled) When Enabled, this creates local PPPoE connections to the WAN side. Enable this option only if all LAN-side devices are running PPPoE clients, otherwise disable it.   The WR-6891u supports pass-through PPPoE sessions from the LAN side while simultaneously running a PPPoE client from non-PPPoE LAN devices.   ENABLE IGMP MULTICAST PROXY Tick the checkbox  to enable Internet Group Membership Protocol (IGMP) multicast. This protocol is used by IPv4 hosts to report their multicast group memberships to any neighboring multicast routers. NO MULTICAST VLAN FILTER  Tick the checkbox  to Enable/Disable multicast VLAN filter.  Enable WAN interface with base MAC  Enable this option to use the router’s base MAC address as the MAC address for this WAN interface.    STEP 3:  Choose an interface to be the default gateway.      Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.
   143Select DNS Server Interface from available WAN interfaces OR enter static DNS server IP addresses for the system. In ATM mode, if only a single PVC with a static IPoE protocol is configured, Static DNS server IP addresses must be entered.    Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.  STEP 5:  The WAN Setup - Summary screen shows a preview of the WAN service you have configured. Check these settings and click Apply/Save if they are correct, or click Back to modify them.    After clicking Apply/Save, the new service should appear on the main screen.
   144E2.2 IP over ETHERNET (IPoE)  STEP 1:  *Select the IP over Ethernet radio button and click Next.     * For tagged service, enter valid 802.1P Priority and 802.1Q VLAN ID. For untagged service, set -1 to both 802.1P Priority and 802.1Q VLAN ID. STEP 2:  The WAN IP settings screen provides access to the DHCP server settings.       You can select the Obtain an IP address automatically radio button to enable DHCP (use the DHCP Options only if necessary). However, if you prefer, you can instead use the Static IP address method to assign WAN IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway manually.
   145NOTE:  If IPv6 networking is enabled, an additional set of instructions, radio buttons, and text entry boxes will appear at the bottom of the screen.   These configuration options are quite similar to those for IPv4 networks. Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.   STEP 3:  This screen provides access to NAT, Firewall and IGMP Multicast settings. Enable each by selecting the appropriate checkbox . Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step. ENABLE NAT If the LAN is configured with a private IP address, the user should select this checkbox .    The NAT submenu will appear in the Advanced Setup menu after reboot.    On the other hand, if a private IP address is not used on the LAN side (i.e. the LAN side is using a public IP), this checkbox  should not be selected, so as to free up system resources for improved performance. ENABLE FULLCONE NAT   This option becomes available when NAT is enabled. Known as one-to-one NAT, all requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port. An external host can send a packet to the internal host, by sending a packet to the mapped external address. ENABLE FIREWALL If this checkbox  is selected, the Security submenu will be displayed on the Advanced Setup menu after reboot.    If firewall is not necessary, this checkbox  should not be selected so as to free up system resources for better performance.     ENABLE IGMP MULTICAST Tick the checkbox  to enable Internet Group Membership Protocol (IGMP) multicast.    IGMP is a protocol used by IPv4 hosts to report their multicast group memberships to any neighboring multicast routers.
   146Enable WAN interface with base MAC  Enable this option to use the router’s base MAC address as the MAC address for this WAN interface.   STEP 4:  To choose an interface to be the default gateway. Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.     STEP 5:  Select DNS Server Interface from available WAN interfaces OR enter static DNS server IP addresses for the system. In ATM mode, if only a single PVC with a static IPoE protocol is configured, Static DNS server IP addresses must be entered.
   147If IPv6 is enabled, an additional set of options will be shown.      IPv6: Select the configured WAN interface for IPv6 DNS server information OR enter the static IPv6 DNS server Addresses. Note that selecting a WAN interface for IPv6 DNS server will enable DHCPv6 Client on that interface.  Click Next to continue or click Back to return to the previous step.    STEP 6:  The WAN Setup - Summary screen shows a preview of the WAN service you have configured. Check these settings and click Apply/Save if they are correct, or click Back to modify them.     After clicking Apply/Save, the new service should appear on the main screen.
   148E2.3 Bridging NOTE:  This connection type is not available on the Ethernet WAN interface.  STEP 1:  *Select the Bridging radio button and click Next.        * For tagged service, enter valid 802.1P Priority and 802.1Q VLAN ID. For untagged service, set -1 to both 802.1P Priority and 802.1Q VLAN ID.  STEP 2:  The WAN Setup - Summary screen shows a preview of the WAN service you have configured. Check these settings and click Apply/Save if they are correct, or click Back to return to the previous screen.       After clicking Apply/Save, the new service should appear on the main screen.    NOTE:  If this bridge connection is your only WAN service, the WR-6891u will be inaccessible for remote management or technical support from the WAN.
