EMINENT ADVANCED MANUAL

Carrying out actions based on date or time

You can configure when a certain option may be available using the 'Schedule Rule'
function. Imagine you wish to make your 'Virtual Server' available at set times. You
can use the Schedule Rule to stipulate when Internet users may approach your Virtual
Server. It will then not be possible for Internet users to make a connection with your
Virtual Server outside the period set. Schedule Rule is a handy option for automating
certain access blocks.

A safe remote connection

VPN (Virtual Private Networking) enables you to create a secure connection so you
can, for example, use your business network while at home. A VPN connection is
actually nothing more than a highly secure tunnel, which makes a connection with
another computer or network via the Internet. Data sent via a VPN and received by
third parties will still be unusable thanks to advanced encryption technology.

Remote network management

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a control function enabling you
to collect information from the router. The above-mentioned information consists of
details on the number of computers connected to the router, their IP- and MAC
addresses and the amount of data traffic processed when the information is requested.
SNMP enables the system administrator to control the router remotely. This is often
done using special applications supporting the SNMP protocol.

Allocating or blocking network access

A MAC address is a unique code which each network product has. This code can
often be found on a sticker on the product. You can also find the MAC address by
clicking on 'Start', 'Execute'. Type 'CMD' and press 'Enter'. Then type 'ipconfig /all'
and press 'Enter' again. The MAC address is shown under 'Physical Address'. A MAC
address consists of six pairs each of two hexadecimal characters. For example, 00-
0C-6E-85-03-82. MAC Address Control enables you to set up rules for MAC
addresses and therefore to deny for example, certain network products access to your
network. When you use a wireless network, you can meanwhile use MAC Address
Control to configure for example, your wireless network adapter to be able to connect
to your network without the neighbouring network adapter being able to do so. MAC
Address Control is a possibility, as well as WEP or WPA of providing extra security for
your wireless network.

Making your wireless network secure

WEP encryption is a form of security encoding the wireless signal from your wireless
router or modem so the data cannot be simply intercepted by third parties. The
security level is expressed in bits. 64-Bit WEP encryption is the lowest security level
