RADIUS
For authentication to work, the client's transmission must go through the Router,
and reach the back-end server that performs the actual authentication. The
wireless client contacts the access point, which in turn communicates with the
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) server. The RADIUS
server verifies the client's credentials to determine whether the device is author-
ized to connect to the LAN. If the RADIUS server accepts the client, the server
responds by exchanging data with the Router, including security keys for sub-
sequent encrypted sessions.
To configure the RADIUS authentication mechanism, perform the following
steps:
1.
Click the 'RADIUS' icon in the 'Advanced' screen of the Web based Man-
agement. The RADIUS screen will appear.
2.
Specify the following parameters:
-
Enabled
: Select this check-box to enable RADIUS client authentication.
-
Server IP
: Type in the RADIUS server's IP address.
-
Server Port
: Type in the RADIUS server's port.
-
Shared Secret
: Type in your shared secret.

REMOTE ADMINISTRATION
It is possible to access and control
PRG AV4202N
not only from within the
home network, but also from the Internet. This allows you to view or change set-
tings while travelling. It also enables you to allow your ISP to change settings or
help you troubleshoot functionality or communication issues from a remote loca-
tion.
Remote access to the Router is blocked by default to ensure the security of
your home network. However, remote access is supported by the following ser-
vices, and you may use the 'Remote Administration' screen to selectively en-
able these services if they are needed.

To view the Router's remote administration options, click the 'Remote Admini-
stration' icon in the 'Advanced' screen of the Web-based management. The
'Remote Administration' screen will appear.
To allow remote access to the Router services:
1.
Select the services that you would like to make available to computers on
the Internet. The following should be taken into consideration:
Although Telnet service is password-protected, it is not considered a se-
cured protocol. When allowing incoming access to a Telnet server, if port
forwarding is configured to use port 23, select port 8023 to avoid conflicts.
When allowing incoming access to the Web-based management, if port for-
warding is configured to use port 80, select port 8080 to avoid conflicts.
2.
Click 'OK' to save the settings.
Allow Incoming WAN Access to the Web-Management.
Used to obtain ac-
cess to the Web-based Management and gain access to all system settings and
parameters (using a browser). Both secure (HTTPS) and non-secure (HTTP)
access is available.
Allow Incoming WAN Access to the Telnet Server.
Used to create a com-
mand-line session and gain access to all system settings and parameters (using
a text-based terminal).
SSH Server.
Similar to Telnet, this protocol is used to create a secured com-
mand line session and gain access to all system settings and parameters.
Diagnostic Tools.
Used for troubleshooting and remote system management
by you or your Internet Service Provider. The utilities that can be used are Ping
and Traceroute (over UDP).
TR-069.
TR-069 is a WAN management protocol intended for communication
between Customer
Premise Equipment
(CPE)
and an Auto-Configuration
Server (ACS). It defines a mechanism that encompasses secure auto configura-
tion of a CPE, and also incorporates other CPE management functions into a
common framework.
TR-064.
As residential gateways offer increasingly complex services, customer
premise installation and configuration increase the operators' operational costs.
DSL Forum's LAN-Side DSL CPE Configuration protocol, known as TR-064,
provides a zero-touch solution for automating the installation and configuration
of gateways from the LAN side.
