Chapter 3. Important notes
•
For security reasons, we do recommend to
change the password
immediately
for accessing the administration user interface (local webpage). Read Chapter 6.6
for detailed settings.
•
Some protocols are disabled by default on the router, but most of them you can
enable to use:
o
The
DHCP
service is turned off by default. When enabled, the router assigns
IP addresses to connected devices, while the available Ethernet interface
addresses use
static
addresses. If you want to assign IP addresses by DHCP,
change the protocol value to
DHCP client
. You can do this in
the Network
/ DHCP
and DNS
settings
menu or under the
Network / Interfaces
menu,
in the
LAN
interface, in the
DHCP
section.
o
The
Dynamic DNS
(DDNS) service is disabled by default, but you can enable
the service. Read Chapter 4.10 for detailed settings.
o
The
IPSec
service is disabled by default, but you can enable the service.
Read Chapter 5.10 for detailed settings.
o
The
OpenVPN
service is disabled by default, but you can enable the service.
Read Chapter 5.11 for detailed settings.
o
The
Ser2Net
(RS485)
service is disabled by default, but you can enable the
service. Read Chapter 5.6 for detailed settings.
•
Some protocols are disabled by default on the router and you cannot use them,
but you can make a request and indicate your requirement before ordering:
o
The
IPv6
protocol is disabled for
LAN
and
USBLAN
interfaces by default.
IPv6 cannot be used on the router!
o
STFP
service is currently not usable on the router.
•
Notes on Firewall service
o
The
Firewall
feature is enabled by default (for security reasons), which
means that all communications are disabled except Ethernet, DHCP, DNS,
and WAN channels, the web port, and services and ports that are required
for normal, normal, and general operation.
o
Note, that enabling of the firewall service does not protect the router
from external DoS attacks and unauthorized intrusions. For reliable
operation, review the settings and allow only the necessary
communication.
