Network – WAN settings


Network – WAN mode


WAN Mode


» If you want to use a redundant ISP link for backup purposes, select the WAN port that will act as the primary link for this mode. Ensure that the backup WAN port has also been configured and that you configure the WAN Failure Detection Method to support Auto-Rollover.

» Link failure is detected in one of the following ways:• By sending DNS queries to a DNS server, or• By sending a Ping request to an IP address, or• None (no failure detection is performed).

» From each WAN interface, DNS queries or Ping requests are sent to the specified IP address. If replies are not received, after a specified number of retries, the corresponding WAN interface is considered down.

» As long as the primary link is up, all traffic is sent over the primary link. Once the primary WAN interface goes down, the rollover link is brought up to send the traffic. Traffic will automatically roll back to the original primary link once the original primary link is back up and running again.

WAN Mode – Auto-Rollover


WAN Mode – Load Balancing


» The VPN firewall distributes the outbound traffic equally among the WAN interfaces that are functional.

» Scenarios could arise when load balancing needs to be bypassed for certain traffic or applications. If certain traffic needs to travel on a specific WAN interface, configure protocol binding rules for that WAN interface. The rule should match the desired traffic.

• In the Protocol Binding menu, you specify a protocol such as HTTP, and this causes all outbound traffic of that protocol to use that WAN port.

WAN Mode – Load Balancing


Dynamic DNS


LAN Settings


LAN Settings – Multi-homing

The secondary LAN IP address will be assigned to the LAN interface of the router and can be used as a gateway by computers on the secondary subnet


» If you have computers on your LAN using different IP address ranges (for example, 172.16.2.0 or 10.0.0.0), you can add “aliases” to the LAN port, giving computers on those networks access to the Internet through the router. This allows the router to act as a gateway to additional logical subnets on your LAN

NOTE: IP addresses on these secondary subnets cannot be configured in the DHCP server. The hosts on the secondary subnets must be manually configured with IP addresses, gateway IP addresses, and DNS server IP addresses.

Security – Port Triggering


Security – Port Triggering

Once configured, operation is as follows:

1. A PC makes an outgoing connection using a port number defined in the Port Triggering table.

2. This Router records this connection, opens the INCOMING port or ports associated with this entry in the Port Triggering table, and associates them with the PC.

3. The remote system receives the PCs request, and responds using a different port number.

4. This Router matches the response to the previous request, and forwards the response to the PC. (Without Port Triggering, this response would be treated as a new connection request rather than a response. As such, it would be handled in accordance with the Port Forwarding rules.)

Note: » Only 1 PC can use a "Port Triggering" application at any time. » After a PC has finished using a "Port Triggering" application, there is a "Time-out"

period before the application can be used by another PC. This is required because this Router cannot be sure when the application has terminated.

» Normally for games and chat.

SSL VPN – Setup Process

1. Create User Portal• VPN > SSL VPN > Portal Layouts

2. Create Domain• Users > Domains• Select the authentication scheme• Link the new domain to the new portal that you have

created in step #1

3. Create Group• Users > Groups• A default group will be created when a domain is created

(this is be indicated with a “*”)• You can create other groups under each domain

4. Create User• Users > Users• Define Login policies

Traffic Meter


» Allows you to measure and limit the traffic routed by the router.

» The router will keep a record of the volume of traffic going from the selected interface.

» The router can also be configured to place a restriction on the volume of data being transferred.

Frequently Asked Questions & Known Issues


FAQ

» Does the SSL require any additional VPN software?• No, the main intention of the SSL VPN is that users do not need to

install any client software on their PCs. Users only need a web browser that can support ActiveX or Java.

» How many simultaneous VPN connections does FVS336G support?

• It supports up to 25 IPSec VPN tunnels and 10 SSL VPN tunnels.

» Can I manage the box using a port number different from standard HTTPS port number 443, and use 443 for port-forwarding to an internal web server?

• No, not yet. You need to use standard port number 443 to manage the box via HTTPS. To access internal web server by port 443, please use SSL or IPSEC VPN tunnel access.


FAQ

» How many simultaneous VPN connections does FVS336G support?

• It supports up to 25 IPSEC VPN tunnels and 10 SSL VPN tunnels.

» Does the FVS336G have all the features of the SSL312 VPN Concentrator?

• No, the FVS336G SSL VPN only provide full SSL VPN tunnel and Port Forwarding. For full features of the SSL VPN, we recommend that you purchase a stand alone SSL312 SSL VPN concentrator.

» Do you need additional hardware to use the SSL VPN feature?• No, the SSL VPN is part of the software feature available on the

FVS336G. You may need an authentication server if you are not using the local user database on the FVS336G.


Known Issues» Dropped packets are not logged thought it matches firewall rule with log option

turns on.

» Admin and guest login from WAN are enabled by default

» Disabling remote management will disable SSL VPN

» Vonage incoming call form WAN rings, but no voice

» VPN rollover does not work if both WAN interfaces are on the same subnet (not common)

» Inbound rule with second public address on a different subnet from WAN interface address does not work if the trafficis initiated from a host directly on this subnet (Not common, normally there is a router in between and that works).

» In Load Balancing mode, a host directly connected to WAN port can ping WAN1, not WAN2. (not a common case, normally there is a router in between and that works.)

» In load balancing mode, SSL VPN user directly connected to WAN port can establish VPN tunnel to WAN1, not WAN2. (not a common case, normally there is a router inbetween and that works.)


Known Issues

» Login page is not displayed properly if if admin comes in via FVX538 inbound rule to login to the WAN port of FVS336G.(This is a common deployment case).

» Host names in SSL port forwarding cannot mix upper and lower case letters.

» SSL VPN denial policy does not block ping traffic unless the high port number is blank.

» SSL VPN global policy "edit" button does not display "Service" on the edit web page (The work-around is to delete the policy and recreate it).

» The change password option should be grayed out if SSL VPN user is authenticated via Active Directory, Radius or LDAP.It has no effect.

» Port forwarding https port 443 via a secondary public WAN IP in inbound rule cannot reach internal web server (Thework-around is to use SSL VPN to access internal web server).

» PPPoE auto-detect displays "No service detected", although it has already acquired WAN IP address and is functioning.


Known Issues

» When adding a SSL VPN resource, the IP address is not part of the configuration and is only availabe from "edit" button.

» Raritan KVM client through SSL Port Forwarding gets disconnected after being idle for a while (The work around is touse SSL VPN tunnel instead of Port Forwarding).
