Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method.
In most situations, the
ADE-4301/ADW-4301 can test your ADSL and Internet connection to determine
the connection method used by your ISP.
•
Fixed or Dynamic IP Address.
On the Internet (WAN port) connection, the
ADE-4301/ADW-4301 supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated
on connection) and Fixed IP Address.
Advanced Internet Functions
•
Application Level Gateways (ALGs).
Applications which use non-standard
connections or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to
define and allow such applications is provided, to enable such applications to be
used normally.
•
Special Applications.
This feature, also called Port Triggering, allows you to
use Internet applications which normally do not function when used behind a fire-
wall.
•
Virtual Servers.
This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on
your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
•
Dynamic DNS Support.
DDNS, when used with the Virtual Servers feature,
allows users to connect to Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if you
have a dynamic IP address which changes every time you connect.
•
URL Filter.
Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN
users.
•
Firewall.
As well as the built-in firewall to protect your LAN, you can define
Firewall Rules to determine which incoming and outgoing traffic should be permit-
ted.
•
Scheduling.
Both the URL Filter and Firewall rules can be scheduled to operate
only at certain times. This provides great flexibility in controlling Internet -bound
traffic.
•
Logs.
Define what data is recorded in the Logs, and optionally send log data to a
Syslog Server. Log data can also be E-mailed to you.
•
VPN Pass through Support.
PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking)
software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configura-
tion is required.
Wireless Features (ADW-4301 only)
•
Standards Compliant.
The ADE-4301/ADW-4301 complies with the
IEEE802.11g (DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs.
•
Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations.
The 802.11g
standard provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both
802.11b and 802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.
•
Speeds to 54Mbps.
All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps are
supported.
•
WEP support.
Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key
sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported. WEP encrypts any data before trans-
mission, providing protection against snoopers.
•
WPA-PSK support.
Like WEP, WPA-PSK encrypts any data before transmis-
sion, providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later standard than
WEP, and provides both easier configuration and greater security than WEP.
