addresses making them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult
for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain
ports to limit the services that outside users can access. To ensure that games and other
Internet applications run properly, you can open specific ports for outside users to access
internal services on your network.
The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow
multiple users to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set
local machines as a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the
DHCP server and reboot. Each time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes
it and assigns an IP address to instantly connect it to the
LAN.
For advanced users, Virtual Service (port forwarding) functions allow the product to provide
limited visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. You can set an
ISP (Internet Service Provider) provided IP address on the BiPAC 7300VGP series and
then you can reroute specific services to individual computers on your local network. For
instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the router and then
incoming requests for web pages that are received by the router can be rerouted to your
dedicated local web server, even though the server now has a different IP address.
Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you
can set the router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the
same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from
hackers.
BiPAC 7300VGP serves as a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)
handset-to-Ethernet adaptor that enables traditional telephone devices to operate as
Internet Protocol (IP) devices. It is the interface between the PSTN world and the IP world
acting as a residential gateway, eventually providing Internet Telephony capability. Cost
savings and ease of developing and integrating new services motivate most of the interest
in Internet telephony. Internet telephony integrates a variety of services provided by the
current Internet and the PSTN infrastructure.
BiPAC 7300VGP extracts the maximum benefit from Voice over IP (VoIP) technology. It
interfaces analog telephones with IP-based telephony networks. The integration of VoIP
technology and ADSL Modem/Router is undoubtedly the most economic and practical
solution to modern society.
