Using the Configuration Menu

Home > WAN > BigPond Cable

User Name-

Enter in the username for the BigPond account

Password-

Enter the password for the BigPond account

Login Server IP-

(Optional) enter the Login Server name if required

Renew IP forever-

If enabled, the device will automatically connect to

your ISP after your unit is restarted or when the

Home > LAN

Using the Configuration Menu

Domain Name-

(Optional) The name of your local domain

Subnet Mask-

The subnet mask of the LAN interface.

The default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

LAN IP Address-

The IP address of the LAN interface.

The default IP address is:

192.168.0.1

LAN

(Local Area

Network). This is

considered your

internal network.

These are the IP

settings of the LAN

interface for the DI-

804HV. These

settings may be

referred to as Private

settings. You may

change the LAN IP

address if needed.

The LAN IP address

is private to your

internal network and

cannot be seen on

the Internet.

Home >DHCP

Using the Configuration Menu

DHCP

stands for

Dynamic Host Control Protocol

. The DI-804HV has a built-in DHCP

server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP address to the computers on

the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting

their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.”

When you turn your

computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the

DI-804HV. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the

IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending

address of the IP address pool.

Starting IP

Address-

The starting IP address for the DHCP server’s IP assignment.

Ending IP

Address-

The ending IP address for the DHCP server’s IP assignment.

Lease Time-

The length of time for the DHCP lease.

DHCP Clients List

-

Lists the DHCP clients connected to the DI-804HV. Click

Refresh

to update the list. The table will show the Host Name,

IP Address, and MAC Address of the DHCP client computer.

Enable or disable the DHCP service.

Home >VPN Settings

Using the Configuration Menu

VPN Settings

are settings that are used to create virtual private tunnels to remote

VPN gateways. The tunnel technology supports data confidentiality, data origin,

authentication and data integrity of network information by utilizing encapsulation

protocols, encryption algorithms, and hashing algorithms.

Max. number of

tunnels-

Create a name for the tunnel.

NetBIOS broadcast-

Check here to enable VPN tunnels. When you are not

using the VPN feature, it is best to keep VPN disabled.

VPN -

Method-

IPSec VPN supports two kinds of key-obtained methods:

manual key and automatic key exchange. Manual key

approach indicates that the two endpoint VPN gateways

require setting up authentication and encryption key by

the Administrator manually. However, IKE approach will

perform automatic Internet key exchange. Admins of both

endpoint gateways will only need to set the same

pre-shared key.

For more in depth configuration to adjust

manual key or IKE method settings, click

More.

-

Tunnel Name-

Select the maximum number of allowable tunnels.

Enable this to allow NetBIOS braodcast over the VPN

tunnels.

Remote Subnet-

The subnet of the remote VPN gateway’s local network. It

can be a host, a partial subnet or a whole subnet.

Remote Netmask-

The subnet of the remote VPN gateway’s local network.

It can be a host, a partial subnet or a whole subnet.

Remote Gateway-

The WAN IP address of remote VPN gateway.

Home >VPN Settings > Tunnel > Method>IKE

Using the Configuration Menu

Local Subnet-

The subnet of the VPN gateway’s local network. It can be a

host, a partial subnet or a whole subnet.

Local Netmask-

Local netmask combined with local subnet to form a subnet

domain.

Aggressive Mode-

Enabling this mode will accelerate establishing tunnel, but

the device will have less security.

Tunnel Name-

Current tunnel name.

IKE Proposal index-

Click the button to setup a set of frequent-used IKE proposals

and select from the set of IKE proposals for the tunnel.

IPSec Proposal

index-

Click the button to setup a set of frequent-used IPSec proposals

and select from the set of IKE proposals for the tunnel.

Preshared Key-

The first key that supports IKE mechanism of both VPN

gateways for negotiating further security keys. The pre-

shared key must be the same for both endpoint gateways.
