Web Configurator Easy Access
With UPnP, you can access web-based configuration for the BiPAC 7800(N) without first finding
out the IP address of the router. This helps if you do not know the router’s IP address.
Follow the steps below to access web configuration.
Step 1: Click Start and then Control Panel.
Step 2: Double-click Network Connections.
Step 3: Select My Network Places under Other Places.
Step 4: An icon describing each UPnP-enabled device shows under Local Network.
Step 5: Right-click on the icon of your BiPAC 7800(N) and select Invoke. The web configuration
login screen displays.
Step 6: Right-click on the icon of your BiPAC 7800(N) and select Properties. A properties window
displays basic information about the BiPAC 7800(N).

IGMP
IGMP, known as Internet Group Management Protocol, is used to manage hosts from multicast
group.
IGMP Proxy:
IGMP proxy enables the system to issue IGMP host messages on behalf of the
hosts that the system has discovered through standard IGMP interfaces. The system acts as a
proxy for its hosts.
IGMP Snooping:
Allows a layer 2 switch to manage the transmission of any incoming IGMP
multicast packet groups between the host and the router. Default is set to Disable.
Click Apply to confirm the settings.
Example:
When IGMP snooping is enabled, the feature will analyze all incoming IGMP packets between the
hosts that are connected to the switch and the multicast routers in the network. When the layer 2
switch receives an IGMP report from a host requesting for a given multicast group, the switch will
add the host's port number to the multicast list for that multicast group to be forwarded to. And, when
the layer 2 switch has detected that an IGMP has left, it will remove the host's port from the table
entry.
MLD
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) enables you to manage subnet multicast membership for IPv6.
MLD is used by IPv6 routers to discover multicast listeners on a directly attached link, much as
IGMP is used in IPv4. Multicast traffic is sent to a single address but is processed by multiple hosts.
Hosts listening on a specific multicast address make up a multicast group, and they receive and
process traffic sent to the group address.

SNMP Access Control
SNMP, short for Simple Network Management Protocol, is an "Internet-standard protocol " for
managing devices on Ip networks. It is mostly used in network management system to monito
network-attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative atention.
SNMP exposes management data in the form of variables on the management system, which
describes the system configuration. These variables can then be queried (and sometimes set) by
managing appications.
There are three versions: version 1, 2, 3.
SNMPv3 is a strong authentication mechanism, authorization with fine granularity for remote
monitoring.
SNMP:
Click "Enable" to activate the SNMP function.
WAN Access:
Check "Enable" if you want users in WAN side have right to access this SNMP
feature.
SNMP V1 and V2:
Read Community:
Specify a name to be identified as the Read Community, and an IP address.
This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the
string name is matched, user obtains this IP address will be able to view the data.
Write Community:
Specify a name to be identified as the Write Community, and an IP address. This
community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string
name is matched, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data.
SNMP V3:
Specify a name and password for authentication. And define the access right from identified IP
address. Once the authentication has succeeded, users from this IP address will be able to view
and modify the data.
