Introduction to your Router
Thank you for purchasing the BiPAC 6200NXL Router. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that
combines a Broadband modem, Ethernet network switch and two USB ports to provide everything you
need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over a 3G broadband connection.
The BiPAC 6200NXL supports 3G, PPP over Ethernet, DHCP Client and Fixed IP address to establish
a connection with your ISP.
The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet
connection, the BiPAC 6200NXL allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access
simultaneously.
Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by outside
users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address Translation (NAT), it
also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming data packets are monitored
and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block internal users from accessing the
Internet.
The BiPAC 6200NXL provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IP addresses making
them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult for a hacker to target a
machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that
outside users can access. To ensure that games and other Internet applications run properly, you can
open specific ports for outside users to access internal services on your network.
The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow multiple users
to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set local machines as a DHCP
client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the DHCP server and reboot. Each time a
local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it and assigns an IP address to instantly connect it
to the
LAN
.
For advanced users, Virtual Service (port mapping) functions allow the product to provide limited
visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. For instance, a dedicated web
server can be connected to the Internet via the router and then incoming requests for web pages that
are received by the router can be rerouted to your dedicated local web server, even though the server
now has a different IP address.
