Billion 400G Router

Chapter 4: Configuration

81

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with control and data
transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT
Traversal. On supported systems, it makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application
control the required settings, thus removing the need for the user to control the advanced configuration of their
router.

Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in addition to the router.
Windows XP and Windows ME natively support UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users
may install the Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000
does not support UPnP.

Disable: Select this option to disable the router’s UPnP functionality.

Enable: Select this option to enable the router’s UPnP functionality.

UPnP Port: The default port setting is 2800. It is highly recommended that users use this port value. If this value
conflicts with other ports that are already being used, you may wish to change it.

SNMP Access Control (Software on a PC within the LAN is required in order to utilize this function) – Simple
Network Management Protocol.

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, the
user on 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
on this IP address will be able to view and modify the data.

Trap Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Trap 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
on this IP address will be sent SNMP Traps.

SNMP V3:

Specify a name and password for authentication. And define the access rights from identified IP address. Once
the authentication has succeeded, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data.

SNMP Version: SNMPv2c and SNMPv3

SNMPv2c is a combination of the enhanced protocol features of SNMPv2 without the SNMPv2 security. The
"c" comes from the fact that SNMPv2c uses the SNMPv1community string paradigm for "security", but is widely
accepted as the SNMPv2 standard.

SNMPv3 is a strong authentication mechanism, authorization with fine granularity for remote monitoring.

Traps supported: Cold Start, Authentication Failure.

The following MIBs are supported:

From RFC 1213 (MIB-II):

System group

Interfaces group
