With the above example application rule enabled, the router will open up a range of ports
from 6000-6200 for incoming traffic from the Internet, whenever any computer on the
internal network opens up an application that sends data to the Internet using a port in
the range of 6500-6700.
Application Rules
This is a list of the defined application rules. Click the Enable checkbox at the left to
directly activate or de-activate the entry. An entry can be changed by clicking the Edit
icon or can be deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the item
is highlighted, and the "Edit Application Rule" section is activated for editing.
TRAFFIC SHAPING
The Traffic Shaping feature helps improve your network performance by prioritizing applications.
Traffic Shaping Setup
Enable Traffic Shaping
When this option is enabled, the router restricts the flow of outbound traffic so as not to
exceed the WAN uplink bandwidth.
Automatic Classification
This option is enabled by default so that your router will automatically determine which
programs should have network priority. For best performance, use the Automatic
Classification option to automatically set the priority for your applications.
Dynamic Fragmentation
This option should be enabled when you have a slow Internet uplink. It helps to reduce
the impact that large low priority network packets can have on more urgent ones by
breaking the large packets into several smaller packets.
Automatic Uplink/Downlink Speed
When enabled, this option causes the router to automatically measure the useful uplink
and downlink bandwidth each time the WAN interface is re-established (after a reboot, for
example).
Measured Uplink Speed
This is the uplink speed measured when the WAN interface was last re-established. The
value may be lower than that reported by your ISP as it does not include all of the
network protocol overheads associated with your ISP's network. Typically, this figure will
be between 87% and 91% of the stated uplink speed for xDSL connections and around 5
kbps lower for cable network connections.

Manual Uplink Speed
If Automatic Uplink Speed is disabled, this options allows you to set the uplink speed
manually. Uplink speed is the speed at which data can be transferred from the router to
your ISP. This is determined by your ISP. ISPs often specify speed as a downlink/uplink
pair; for example, 1.5Mbps/284kbps. For this example, you would enter "284".
Alternatively you can test your uplink speed with a service such as
www.dslreports.com
.
Note however that sites such as DSL Reports, because they do not consider as many
network protocol overheads, will generally note speeds slightly lower than the Measured
Uplink Speed or the ISP rated speed.
Connection Type
By default, the router automatically determines whether the underlying connection is an
xDSL/Frame-relay network or some other connection type (such as cable modem or
Ethernet), and it displays the result as
Detected xDSL or Frame Relay Network
. If you
have an unusual network connection in which you are actually connected via xDSL but
for which you configure either "Static" or "DHCP" in the WAN settings, setting this option
to
xDSL or Other Frame Relay Network
ensures that the router will recognize that it
needs to shape traffic slightly differently in order to give the best performance. Choosing
xDSL or Other Frame Relay Network
causes the measured uplink speed to be reported
slightly lower than before on such connections, but gives much better results.
Detected xDSL or Frame Relay Network
When
Connection Type
is set to
Auto-detect
, the automatically detected connection
type is displayed here.
Add/Edit Traffic Shaping Rules
A Traffic Shaping Rule identifies a specific message flow and assigns a priority to that
flow. For most applications, automatic classification will be adequate, and specific Traffic
Shaping Rules will not be required.
Traffic Shaping supports overlaps between rules, where more than one rule can match
for a specific message flow. If more than one rule is found to match the rule with the
highest priority will be used.
Enable
Specifies whether the entry will be active or inactive.
Name
Create a name for the rule that is meaningful to you.
Priority
The priority of the message flow is entered here -- 0 receives the highest priority (most
urgent) and 255 receives the lowest priority (least urgent).
Protocol
The protocol used by the messages.

Local IP Range
The rule applies to a flow of messages whose LAN-side IP address falls within the range
set here.
Local Port Range
The rule applies to a flow of messages whose LAN-side port number is within the range
set here.
Remote IP Range
The rule applies to a flow of messages whose WAN-side IP address falls within the range
set here.
Remote Port Range
The rule applies to a flow of messages whose WAN-side port number is within the range
set here.

Traffic Shaping Rules
This section lists all the defined Traffic Shaping Rules. Click the Enable checkbox at the
left to directly activate or de-activate the entry. An entry can be changed by clicking the
Edit icon or can be deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the
item is highlighted, and the "Edit Traffic Shaping Rule" section is activated for editing.
ROUTING
Add/Edit Route
Adds a new route to the IP routing table or edits an existing route.
Enable
Specifies whether the entry will be enabled or disabled.
Destination IP
The IP address of packets that will take this route.
Netmask
One bits in the mask specify which bits of the IP address must match.

Gateway
Specifies the next hop to be taken if this route is used. A gateway of 0.0.0.0 implies there
is no next hop, and the IP address matched is directly connected to the router on the
interface specified: LAN or WAN.
Metric
The route metric is a value from 1 to 16 that indicates the cost of using this route. A value
of 1 is the lowest cost, and 15 is the highest cost. A value of 16 indicates that the route is
not reachable from this router. When trying to reach a particular destination, computers
on your network will select the best route, ignoring unreachable routes.
Interface
Specifies the interface -- LAN or WAN -- that the IP packet must use to transit out of the
router, when this route is used.
Save/Update

Routes List
The section shows the current routing table entries. Certain required routes are
predefined and cannot be changed. Routes that you add can be changed by clicking the
Edit icon or can be deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the
item is highlighted, and the "Edit Route" section is activated for editing. Click the Enable
checkbox at the left to directly activate or de-activate the entry.
ACCESS CONTROL
The Access Control section allows you to control access in and out of devices on your network.
Use this feature as Parental Controls to only grant access to approved sites, limit web access
based on time or dates, and/or block access from applications such as peer-to-peer utilities or
games.
Enable
By default, the Access Control feature is disabled. If you need Access Control, check this
option.
Note:
When Access Control is disabled, every device on the LAN has unrestricted
access to the Internet. However, if you enable Access Control, Internet access is
restricted for those devices that have an Access Control Policy configured for them. All
other devices have unrestricted access to the Internet.

Policy Wizard
The Policy Wizard guides you through the steps of defining each access control policy. A
policy is the "Who, What, When, and How" of access control -- whose computer will be
affected by the control, what internet addresses are controlled, when will the control be in
effect, and how is the control implemented. You can define multiple policies. The Policy
Wizard starts when you click the button below and also when you edit an existing policy.
Add Policy
Click this button to start creating a new access control policy.
Policy Table
This section shows the currently defined access control policies. A policy can be changed
by clicking the Edit icon, or deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit
icon, the Policy Wizard starts and guides you through the process of changing a policy.
You can enable or disable specific policies in the list by clicking the "Enable" checkbox.
