CONFIGURING THE BAR RICADE 4-40 NAT Network Address Translation allows multiple users to access the Internet sharing one public IP.
NAT 4-41 Address Mapping Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. This also hides the internal network for increased privacy and security. Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP into the “from” field.
CONFIGURING THE BAR RICADE 4-42 Virtual Server If you configure the Barricade as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the Barricade redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address). For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them. The more common TCP service ports include: HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110. A list of ports is maintained at the following link: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.
NAT 4-43 Special Application Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video-conferencing, and Internet telephony. These applications may not work when Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use these screens to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.
CONFIGURING THE BAR RICADE 4-44 NAT Mapping Table This screen displays the current NAPT (Network Address Port Translation) address mappings. NAT Mapping Table displays the current NAPT address mappings. The NAT address mappings are listed 20 lines per page, click the control buttons to move forwards and backwards. As the NAT mapping is dynamic, a Refresh button is provided to refresh the NAT Mapping Table with the mots updated values. The content of the NAT Mapping Table is described as follows. • Protocol - protocol of the flow. • Local IP - local (LAN) host’s IP address for the flow. • Local Port - local (LAN) host’s port number for the flow. •Pseudo IP - translated IP address for the flow. • Pseudo Port - translated port number for the flow. • Peer IP - remote (WAN) host’s IP address for the flow. • Peer Port - remote (WAN) host’s port number for the flow.
ROUTING 4-45 Routing These screens define routing related parameters, including static routes and RIP (Routing Information Protocol) parameters. Static Route Click Add to add a new static route to the list, or check the box of an already entered route and click Modify. Clicking Delete will remove an entry from the list. Parameter Description Index Check the box of the route you wish to delete or modify. Network Address Enter the IP address of the remote computer for which to set a static route. Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask of the remote network for which to set a static route. Gateway Enter the WAN IP address of the gateway to the remote network.
CONFIGURING THE BAR RICADE 4-46 RIP RIP sends routing-update messages at regular intervals and when the network topology changes. When a router receives a routing update that includes changes to an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new route. RIP routers maintain only the best route to a destination. After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting routing updates to inform other network routers of the change.
ROUTING 4-47 Parameter Description General RIP Parameters RIP mode Globally enables or disables RIP. Auto summary If Auto summary is disabled, then RIP packets will include sub-network information from all sub- networks connected to the router. If enabled, this sub-network information will be summarized to one piece of information covering all sub- networks. Table of current Interface RIP parameter Interface The WAN interface to be configured. Operation Mode Disable: RIP disabled on this interface. Enable: RIP enabled on this interface. Silent: Listens for route broadcasts and updates its route table. It does not participate in sending route broadcasts. Version Sets the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) version to use on this interface. Poison Reverse A method for preventing loops that would cause endless retransmission of data traffic. Authentication Required • None: No authentication. • Password: A password authentication key is included in the packet. If this does not match what is expected, the packet will be discarded. This method provides very little security as it is possible to learn the authentication key by watching RIP packets. Authentication Code Password Authentication key.
CONFIGURING THE BAR RICADE 4-48 Routing Table Parameter Description Flags Indicates the route status: C = Direct connection on the same subnet. S = Static route. R = RIP (Routing Information Protocol) assigned route. I = ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) Redirect route. Network Address Destination IP address. Netmask The subnetwork associated with the destination. This is a template that identifies the address bits in the destination address used for routing to specific subnets. Each bit that corresponds to a “1” is part of the subnet mask number; each bit that corresponds to “0” is part of the host number. Gateway The IP address of the router at the next hop to which frames are forwarded. Interface The local interface through which the next hop of this route is reached. Metric When a router receives a routing update that contains a new or changed destination network entry, the router adds 1 to the metric value indicated in the update and enters the network in the routing table.
