Configuring Your SmartRG

™

- Common Use Cases

To simplify your deployment of SmartRG gateways this document is structured around specific use

cases designed to illustrate meaningful, service supporting configurations like:



Creating WAN interfaces for Internet data access and remote gateway management



Provisioning the SmartRG for remote management via TR-069



Setting up the LAN



Managing wireless



Creating IPTV service configurations (bridged and routed)



Classifying LAN traffic and applying QoS to support IPTV and VoIP applications



Enabling secure communications (IPSec)

Given the breadth of a SmartRG residential gateway

’s features and the

diversity of applications,

only the most common use cases are detailed here. Please contact SmartRG Support to inquire

about additional use cases.

Use Case: Creating WAN Connections for Internet Access and Remote

Management

SmartRG residential gateways are commonly deployed to provide Internet access for LAN hosts

such as workstations, gaming consoles, IP cameras and myriad other IP enabled devices

increasingly found in the home or office. Packets routed between LAN hosts and the Internet pass

through the gateway’s routed

WAN connection. Remote management (via TR-069) is also

performed through this connection. The typical Internet access/remote management connection

configuration is diagramed below.

Figure 10 Internet / TR-069 Management WAN Connection

WAN connection creation is a two-step process beginning with the configuration of a layer 2

interface (Ethernet or DSL) followed by the creation of a layer 3, WAN service. Common WAN

services include PPPoE, DHCP and Static IP.

Configuring the Layer 2 Interface (Ethernet)

To configure an Ethernet layer 2 interface:

1.

Select

Advanced Setup -> Layer2 Interface.

The default Ethernet WAN interface

(eth0.5/LAN4) will be displayed.

No further configuration is necessary.

Configuring the Layer 2 Interface (Ethernet with VLAN Tags)

In some applications it may be necessary to segment the Ethernet WAN interface into separate

VLANs. A common application for a VLAN segmented WAN interface is bridged IPTV as detailed in

the

“

Bridged IPTV Configuration

”

section. To configure the layer 2 Ethernet interface to support

VLAN tagged traffic:

1.

Select

Advanced Setup -> Layer2 Interface.

The default Ethernet WAN interface

(eth0.5/LAN4) will be displayed.

2.

Check the “Remove” box and click

Remove.

3.

Click Add.

4.

Select “VLAN MUX Mode.”

Click Apply/Save.

NOTE

802.1P (priority) and 802.1Q (VLAN tag) values will be set at the time of WAN Service

creation

as detailed in, “

Creating the WAN Service

.”
