4.4.3 SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for exchanging

management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP

protocol suite. BiPAC 5102 series supports SNMP agent functionality which allows a

manager station to manage and monitor the router through the network.

Get Community:

Type the Get Community, which is the password for the incoming

Get-and GetNext requests from the management station.

Set Community:

Type the Set Community, which is the password for incoming Set

requests from the management station.

4.4.4 UPnP

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along

with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users

running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks

such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings,

removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device.

Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in

addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support UPnP (when the

component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing

client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.

UPnP:

Select this checkbox to activate UPnP. Be aware that anyone could use a UPnP

application to open the web configurator's login screen without entering the BIPAC 5102

Series 's IP address

Auto-configured:

Select this check box to allow UPnP-enabled applications to

automatically configure the BIPAC 5102 Series so that they can communicate through the

BIPAC 5102 Series, for example by using NAT traversal, UPnP applications automatically

reserve a NAT forwarding port in order to communicate with another UPnP enabled device;

this eliminates the need to manually configure port forwarding for the UPnP enabled

application.

4.4.5 DDNS

The Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname,

allowing users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name.

This is especially useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone

wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your

dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN

IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.

You will first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using

their website, for example

Dynamic DNS:

Select this check box to use dynamic DNS.

Service Provider:

Select the name of your Dynamic DNS service provider.

My

Host Name

: Type the domain name assigned to your BIPAC 5102 Series by your

Dynamic DNS provider.

E-mail Address:

Type your e-mail address.

Username:

Type your user name.

Password:

Type the password assigned to you.

Wildcard support:

Select this check box to enable DYNDNS Wildcard.
