Possible Uses

•

LISP is useful if technical or organization reasons make

it preferable to keep the same IP addresses, even when

you switch Internet service providers.

Mobility example: When you change locations, devices

do not lose their identity (host devices, VM).

•

LISP is suitable for communication between IPv4 and

IPv6 networks.

•

Transport of address families: IPv4 via IPv4, IPv4 via

IPv6, IPv6 via IPv6, IPv6 via IPv4

Example: The encapsulation of IPv6 packets in IPv4

headers allows IPv6 web sites to be connected over

IPv4.

PETR (Proxy ETR)

A PETR (Proxy ETR) is required for communica-

tion between LISP sites and non-LISP sites. On

the LISP site it works like a LISP router; on the

non-LISP site it works like a native IP router.

PITR (PROXY ITR)

A PITR (Proxy ETR) is required for communica-

tion between LISP sites and non-LISP sites. On

the LISP site it works like a LISP router; on the

non-LISP site it works like a native IP router.

xTR

xTR is what we call a component that is both

ETR and ITR. xTR is also known as a tunnel

endpoint or encapsulation endpoint.

•

The FRITZ!Box can be configured as a LISP router.

•

As a LISP router is the FRITZ!Box is an xTR (ETR and ITR).

Preparations

You need a LISP provider.



Register with a LISP provider.

All of the information you need to configure the FRITZ!Box as a

LISP router is supplied by the LISP provider.

Configuring a LISP Router

1.

Open the FRITZ!Box user interface, see

page 32

.

2.

Enable the advanced view.

3.

Select the “LISP” tab.

FRITZ!Box as a WLAN Access Point

The FRITZ!Box is a wireless access point for wireless devices like note-

books, tablets or smartphones. The FRITZ!Box can establish wireless

LAN connections compliant with the fast wireless AC standard and the

wireless N standard in two frequency bands at the same time. The

FRITZ!Box is preconfigured with an encryption method from today’s

safest method WPA2. This encryption method is supported by most of

the latest wireless devices. The FRITZ!Box supports wireless LAN con-

venience functions like night service and WPS Quick Connection.

15.1

Switching the Wireless Radio Network On and Off by Schedule

You can switch the wireless radio network of the FRITZ!Box

automatically according to a schedule. It reduces the power

consumption of the FRITZ!Box by completely turning off the

WLAN module. The FRITZ!Box schedule also affects any other

FRITZ!Box products connected in the network (the

FRITZ!WLAN Repeater, for instance): the wireless transmis-

sion of these devices is also switched on and off in the

FRITZ!Box settings.

1.

Open the FRITZ!Box user interface, see

page 32

.

2.

Open the “WLAN / Schedule” menu.

3.

Enable the schedule for the wireless radio network.

4.

Configure the settings for the schedule:

–

With the options “Switch WLAN off daily” and

“Switch WLAN off according to schedule” you define

the intervals for switching.

–

You can also select the option “The radio network

cannot be switched off until no more wireless LAN

devices are active”.

5.

Click “Apply” to save your settings.

Now the schedule of the FRITZ!Box is enabled and configured.

Extending a Wireless Radio Network

Switching Wireless LAN On and Off

You can switch the wireless radio network of the FRITZ!Box on

and off at any time, even when the device is hibernating.

•

Press the “WLAN” button on the FRITZ!Box briefly

or

Extending a Wireless Radio Network

The range of a wireless radio network is not fixed. It depends on

•

the wireless devices you are using for your wireless LAN

connections

•

interference in the vicinity of your wireless radio network

•

the structural conditions where you operate the wireless

radio network

•

the number of wireless devices in the vicinity of your

FRITZ!Box that work in the same frequency range

You can extend the range of your wireless radio network with

a wireless LAN repeater.

Or you can set up a second FRITZ!Box as a wireless LAN re-

peater.

Extending a Wireless Radio Network with a Wireless LAN

Repeater

You can extend your wireless radio network with a wireless

LAN repeater. In combination with the FRITZ!Box the AVM

FRITZ!WLAN Repeater is especially suitable. All models of the

FRITZ!WLAN Repeater series can be integrated into your wire-

less radio network and your home network by WPS Quick Con-

nection. Find out more in the Internet at:

Using an Existing FRITZ!Box as a Repeater

You can extend the wireless LAN radio network of your

FRITZ!Box with an additional FRITZ!Box you already have. To

extend your wireless LAN, configure the repeater function in

this device.

You can configure a FRITZ!Box as a repeater by working

through the following steps:

1.

Open the FRITZ!Box user interface, see

page 32

.

2.

Enable the advanced view.

3.

Select the “WLAN / Repeater” menu and follow the in-

structions displayed on the screen.

In the Help of the FRITZ!Box user interface

you can find de-

tailed instructions.

15.3

Wireless LAN—Getting Technical

A wireless LAN is based on standards defined by the Institute

of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). These standards

describe, for instance, the transmission speeds, encryption

methods and frequencies used in a wireless LAN network.

Data Throughput

The FRITZ!Box supports your choice of the standards

IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11n and

IEEE 802.11ac. Wireless devices based on one or more of the

standards listed can be used for wireless LAN connections

with the FRITZ!Box.

The standards are intended for different frequency bands.
