Setup the the ZyXEL Device as a DHCP Relay
What is DHCP Relay?
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. In addition to the DHCP server feature, the P2302
supports the DHCP relay function. When it is configured as DHCP server, it assigns the IP addresses to the
LAN clients. When it is configured as DHCP relay, it is responsible for forwarding the requests and responses
negotiating between the DHCP clients and the server. See figure 1.

Configure an Internal Server Behind SUA
Introduction
If you wish, you can make internal servers (e.g., Web, ftp or mail server) accessible for outside users, even
though SUA makes your LAN appear as a single machine to the outside world. A service is identified by the
port number. Also, since you need to specify the IP address of a server in the ZyXEL Device, a server must
have a fixed IP address and not be a DHCP client whose IP address potentially changes each time it is powered
on.
In addition to the servers for specific services, SUA supports a default server. A service request that does not
have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default server. If the default server is not defined,
the service request is simply discarded.
Configuration
To make a server visible to the outside world, specify the port number of the service and the inside address of
the server in 'Menu 15.2.1', Multiple Server Configuration. The outside users can access the local server using
the ZyXEL Device's WAN IP address which can be obtained from menu 24.1.

Configure a PPTP server Behind SUA
Introduction
PPTP is a tunneling protocol defined by the PPTP forum that allows PPP packets to be encapsulated within
Internet Protocol (IP) packets and forwarded over any IP network, including the Internet itself.

P2302RL-P1 Support Notes

15
In order to run the Windows 9x PPTP client, you must be able to establish an IP connection with a tunnel server
such as the Windows NT Server 4.0 Remote Access Server.
Windows Dial-Up Networking uses the Internet standard Point-to-Point (PPP) to provide a secure, optimized
multiple-protocol network connection over dial-up telephone lines. All data sent over this connection can be
encrypted and compressed, and multiple network level protocols (TCP/IP, NetBEUI and IPX) can be run
correctly. Windows NT Domain Login level security is preserved even across the Internet.
Window98 PPTP Client / Internet / NT RAS Server Protocol Stack
PPTP appears as new modem type(Virtual Private Networking Adapter) that can be selected when setting up a
connection in the Dial-Up Networking folder. The VPN Adapter type does not appear elsewhere in the system.
Since PPTP encapsulates its data stream in the PPP protocol, the VPN requires a second dial-up adapter. This
second dial-up adapter for VPN is added during the installation phase of the Upgrade in addition to the first
dial-up adapter that provides PPP support for the analog or ISDN modem.
The PPTP is supported in Windows NT and Windows 98 already. For Windows 95, it needs to be upgraded by
the Dial-Up Networking 1.2 upgrade.
Configuration
This application note explains how to establish a PPTP connection with a remote private network in the ZyXEL
Device SUA case. In ZyNOS, all PPTP packets can be forwarded to the internal PPTP Server (WinNT server)

16
behind SUA. The port number of the PPTP has to be entered in the SMT Menu 15 for ZyXEL Device to
forward to the appropriate private IP address of Windows NT server.
Example
The following example shows how to dial to an ISP via the ZyXEL Device and then establish a tunnel to a
private network. There will be three items that you need to set up for PPTP application, these are PPTP server
(WinNT), PPTP client (Win9x) and the ZyXEL Device.
oPPTP server setup (WinNT)
Add the VPN service from Control Panel>Network
Add an user account for PPTP logged on user
Enable RAS port
Select the network protocols from RAS such as IPX, TCP/IP NetBEUI
Set the Internet gateway to ZyXEL Device
oPPTP client setup (Win9x)
Add one VPN connection from Dial-Up Networking by entering the correct
username & password and the IP address of the ZyXEL Device's Internet IP
address for logging to NT RAS server.
Set the Internet gateway to the router that is connecting to ISP
oZyXEL router setup
Before making a VPN connection from Win9x to WinNT server, you need to connect ZyXEL
router to your ISP first.

P2302RL-P1 Support Notes

17
Enter the IP address of the PPTP server (WinNT server) and the port number for PPTP as shown
below.
When you have finished the above settings, you can ping to the remote Win9x client from
WinNT. This ping command is used to demonstrate that remote the Win9x can be reached across the
Internet. If the Internet connection between two LANs is achieved, you can place a VPN call from the
remote Win9x client.
For example:
C:\ping 203.66.113.2
When a dial-up connection to ISP is established, a default gateway is assigned to the router traffic
through that connection. Therefore, the output below shows the default gateway of the Win9x client
after the dial-up connection has been established.
Before making a VPN connection from the Win9x client to the NT server, you need to know the exact
Internet IP address that the ISP assigns to ZyXEL router in SUA mode and enter this IP address in the
VPN dial-up dialog box. You can check this Internet IP address from PNC Monitor or SMT Menu

24.1. If the Internet IP address is a fixed IP address provided by ISP in SUA mode, then you can
always use this IP address for reaching the VPN server.
In the following example, the IP address '140.113.1.225' is dynamically assigned by ISP. You must
enter this IP address in the 'VPN Server' dialog box for reaching the PPTP server. After the VPN link is
established, you can start the network protocol application such as IP, IPX and NetBEUI.
About Filter & Filter Examples
How does ZyXEL filter work?
Filter Structure
The ZyXEL Device allows you to configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72
filter rules in the system. You can apply up to four filter sets to a particular port to block multiple types of
packets. With each filter set having up to six rules, you can have a maximum of 24 rules active for a single port.
The following diagram illustrates the logic flow when executing a filter rule.

P2302RL-P1 Support Notes

19
Filter Types and SUA
Conceptually, there are two categories of filter rules: device and protocol. The Generic filter rules belong to the
device category; they act on the raw data from/to LAN and WAN. The IP and IPX filter rules belong to the
protocol category; they act on the IP and IPX packets.

P2302RL-P1 Support Notes
All contents Copyright 2007 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
20
In order to allow users to specify the local network IP address and port number in the filter rules with SUA
connections, the TCP/IP filter function has to be executed before SUA for WAN outgoing packets and after the
SUA for WAN incoming IP packets. But at the same time, the Generic filter rules must be applied at the point
when the ZyXEL Device is receiving and sending the packets; i.e. the ISDN interface. So, the execution
sequence has to be changed. The logic flow of the filter is shown in Figure 1 and the sequence of the logic flow
for the packet from LAN to WAN is:
LAN device and protocol input filter sets.
WAN protocol call and output filter sets.
If SUA is enabled, SUA converts the source IP address from 192.168.1.33 to 203.205.115.6 and
port number from 1023 to 4034.
WAN device output and call filter sets.
The sequence of the logic flow for the packet from WAN to LAN is:
WAN device input filter sets.
If SUA is enabled, SUA converts the destination IP address from 203.205.115.6 to 92.168.1.33 and port
number from 4034 to 1023.
WAN protocol input filter sets.
LAN device and protocol output filter sets.
Generic and TCP/IP (and IPX) filter rules are in different filter sets. The SMT will detect and prevent the
mixing of different category rules within any filter set in Menu 21. In the following example, you will receive
an error message 'Protocol and device filter rules cannot be active together' if you try to activate a TCP/IP (or
IPX) filter rule in a filter set that has already had one or more active Generic filter rules. You will receive the
