Hawking Technology Wireless-G Router - Manual (Page 5)

Introduction
• DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dy-
namic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless Router can
act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
•
Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are
supported, using the Wireless Router's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support
and built-in static routing table.
Configuration & Management
• Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for
configuration.
•
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration
data from the Wireless Router to your PC, and restore (upload) a previously-saved
configuration file to the Wireless-G Router.
•
Remote Management. The Wireless-G Router can be managed from any PC
on your LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be con-
figured via the Internet.
•
Network Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless-G Router to perform a Ping or
DNS lookup.
•
UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and
configuration of the Wireless Router. UPnP is by supported by Windows ME, XP, or
later.
Security Features
•
Password - protected Configuration . Optional password protection is
provided to prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and
settings.
•
Wireless LAN Security . WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is supported, as well
as Wireless access control to prevent unknown wireless stations from accessing
your LAN.
•
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)
technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the loca-
tion and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there
is no network, only a single device - the Wireless Router.
• Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood
your Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so
much bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable.
The Wireless Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
