and PCs from many different vendors, and it makes setting up a network simple and

affordable. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity

networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this

feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net Meeting or MSN Messenger.

Network Address Translation

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such

as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many

application layer gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet,

E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.

Firewall

NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the

Internet, like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.

Domain Name System Relay

Domain Name System (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a

user-friendly name such as www.billion.com with an IP address. When a local machine sets

its DNS server to the router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC

to this router is forwarded to the real DNS on the outside network.

Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)

The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname.

This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. To use the service, you must first apply for

an account from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/.

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

The myGuard 7202(G) provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a

connection. You get greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while

sharing the same ISP account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client

software is required for the local computer. Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout

(Idle Timer) functions are also provided.

Quality of Service (QoS)

QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority

by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or

management information move through the router ay lightning speed, even under heavy

load. The QoS features are configurable by source IP address, destination IP address,

protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass

through the router, to ensure P2P users don’t saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing

doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change

the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

Virtual Server:

You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The myGuard router detects an

incoming service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For

example, you can assign a PC in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the

outside network. Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is

protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the

outside Internet network.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server

On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider

(ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP

addresses, including subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local

computers. This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.

Rich Packet Filtering

This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering

packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.

Static and RIP1/2 Routing

An easy static routing table or RIP1/2 routing protocol supports routing capability.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

SNMP allows convenient remote management of the router.

Web-based GUI

A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. User-friendly and with on-line

help, it also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and

manage this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

You can upgrade the myGuard router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI.
