<title>Zywall 35 VPN Tunnel plus Client Route to VPN Server</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23364098</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a couple Zywall 35s on two LANs and a VPN tunnel connecting them and it works just great. How do I also use a VPN server that sits behind one of the Zywall 35s for client L2TP over IPsec connections from the outside? Is it even possible? ]]></description>

<title>Routing LAN traffic</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23340894</link>
<description><![CDATA[I am upgrading an existing installation. Currently there is a Linksys (BEFSR41) router connected to a DSL modem, an old single port Cisco router and two logical networks. I need to replace the old stuff and also add a new physical network.

Current configuration is that the "main" network is say 10.10.1.0, the Linksys is at .1 and all of the computers use this network. There is a second network say 10.10.5.0 with a server and various terminals on that subnet. Some PCs also have the second subnet on them so they can get to the server.

The 1501 is the gateway for the second subnet to allow Internet connectivity for the second subnet. It is also used to send traffic to another router that connects to another network but I will be eliminating that.

I will be adding another physical network with its own subnet for some wireless equipment. That subnet needs Internet connectivity and all devices on that new network need to be firewalled so thay can only talk to one IP on the second logical network (10.10.5.0).

If I use say a Zywall 2 or 5 it seems that setting up an IPalias on the LAN would handle the physical network with two logical networks and then say adding the new physical network to say the DMZ port would handle it. 

I haven't done this so am I missing anything obvious about if this would work?

Thanks     ]]></description>

<title>ZyWall 2WG Wireless Configuration</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23343650</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a Zywall 2WG, firmware 4.02(AGI.1), that I've been using for a while now, but I've only used it wired. I now have a wireless device (smartphone) to connect, and want to be sure how to do that as I've never used wireless before.

It looks like in the setup I would go to Network and then:
Under WLAN:
Port Roles Tab -  I would assign the unused port I have to WLAN
WLAN tab - under WLAN TCP/IP - Enter the IP Address and Subnet mask, and DHCP setup (would this be the same as for LAN? 

Under DHCP Setup, for IP PoolStarting Address, would I use the same as for LAN, or should I start that at a higher port? 

Pool size is 128 for LAN, is that what I should use for WLAN (its set to 6 as the default for WLAN)?

For the firewall, I think what I have to enable is LAN to WLAN, and WLAN to LAN, but I'm totally confused about the security. I know it should be WPA2, but can't see where it's enabled unless it's under Wireless Card, and I have no card of any kind inserted into the device.

<title>SMB 2 protocol over Zywall VPN</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23138224</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi folks:

I'm having an issue with the SMB 2 protocol and doing file copies over a VPN with a Z35 on one end and a USG 100 on the other.  
 
By way of background if you do file sharing between two Vista machines, two Windows Server 2008 machines (including SBS 2008), or a Vista and Windows Server 2008 machine, by default the SMB connection between the two is SMB 2.  If WinXP, or Windows Server 2003 or earlier is on at least one end of the connection then the connection is the original SMB (aka SMB 1), even if one of the partners is Vista or Windows 2008.    
 
The problem occurs only with file copies across the VPN between machines using SMB 2.  Directory listings show up fine, but when files are copied, the copy operation basically hangs and never finishes.  There is a way to disable SMB 2 in Vista, Server 2008, and SBS 2008 such that it will only connect using SMB 1 regardless of who is on the other end, and if I do that everything works fine.  
 
I'm not sure if this is a Zywall issue, or is somehow an issue across all VPNs.  I haven't had much luck searching the internet for this problem; the closest I've come across is a registry tweak to disable the "calculating time" function that Vista and Server 2008 do when copying files, however that didn't fix anything.  
 
If anyone has a VPN using two Zywalls and has a Vista or combination of Vista and Server 2008 on either end I'd be interested if you could run a test and see what results you get.

Thoughts and suggestions welcome.

<title>ZW35 - remove &#x22;default&#x22; servers from DNS relay?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23222445</link>
<description><![CDATA[I currently have my Zywall 35 configured to use a DNS relay followed by a number of custom servers in the chain.

However how can I remove the "default" ISP DHCP-provided DNS servers from the end of the list? The entry is greyed out. The ZW35 insists on working its way through the entire list, and I want to remove the ISP-based ones as they force "search page" results on negative resolutions, and the only opt-out is browser cookie based (so utterly useless).

Any ideas?]]></description>

<title>Configuring XyXEL P660m-61 ADSL access modem</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23334241</link>
<description><![CDATA[This modem is a challenge to configure.  There seems to be no documentation on line for setting it up.  One is unable to communicate with it, after resetting.  When executing IP config command, there is no default address string under default gateway.  What am I doing incorrectly?  Please kindly help. Thank you in advance. ]]></description>

<title>USG200 speed tests #2</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22650233</link>
<description><![CDATA[With the release of 2.12 firmware and as follow-up to http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22253325-USG200-speed-tests I've done some additional tests.

[att=1]

Testing environment:
Server on LAN: openSUSE 11.1, gigabit NIC
Client on WAN2: openSUSE 11.1, gigabit NIC

All tests are done netperf TCP_STREAM as per below (default test):
tweety:~ # netperf -V&#012;Netperf version 2.4.5&#012;tweety:~ # netperf -f m -H 192.168.50.2&#012;TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.50.2 (192.168.50.2) port 0 AF_INET&#012;
Setup notes:
- BWM and CF was always Off
- There were some other firewall rules on the USG defined and active, but the Internet WAN link was Off
- AppPatrol all default, forward
- AV ZyXel engine, all protocols on
- IDP default, WAN to any
- ADP default, WAN to any
- AS default, WAN to any

Performed tests:
First I've done 3 subsequent 10 seconds tests. Then I've started over and done one 30 seconds test.

Notes on results:
Services such as AV, AS are supposed to be scanning only specific protocols i.e. HTTP FTP SMTP POP3 IMAP4 thus not sure how good are these tests since I was using netperf on some random port non-specific protocol. Interestingly AV was slowing down significantly!

AppPatrol speed is significantly improved from 2.11 firmware. Actually the results seem too high, I'm not sue if the packet inspection engine was kicking in since I was not using any specific messenger or other monitored app for testing.

IDP however seems to be corrupted in this version, speeds were constantly below the advertised! Additionally IDP speeds were significantly jumping up and down from test to test.

Firewall throughput is also below advertised.

Advertised speeds:
Firewall Throughput:              150 Mbps
UTM Throughput (AV+IDP+Firewall): 40 Mbps

Final thought
I'm quite confused about these results. Maybe every specific engine needs to be tested with specific protocol. Also the fact that AV/IDP results were up/down from test to test makes me feel uneasy about scanning engine(s) implementation.
I would definitely not make any decisions and/or conclusions based on these tests. Just FYI for those who are interested ;)
