Applications
The SpeedStream 2602 by Siemens provides many advanced features and functionality:
LAN Access – The SpeedStream 2602 provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps devices, making it easy to 
create a network in small offices or homes.
Internet Access – This device supports Internet access through an xDS or cable connection. Since many 
DSL providers use PPPoE to establish communications with end users, the SpeedStream 2602 includes 
a built-in PPPoE client,  eliminating the need to install this service on your computer.
Shared IP Address – The SpeedStream 2602 provides Internet access for up to 253 users with a single 
shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple users on your network can browse the Web at 
the same time.
Virtual Server – Virtual Server allows Internet users to access Web, FTP, and other servers on your 
LAN from remote locations.
User-Definable Application-Sensing Tunnel – You can define special applications that require 
multiple connections such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, and Internet telephony. The 
SpeedStream 2602 will then sense the application type and open a multi-port tunnel for it.
DMZ Host Support – The SpeedStream 2602 allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the 
Internet. This function is used when the special application-sensing tunnel feature is insufficient to allow 
an application to function correctly.
Security – The SpeedStream 2602 supports security features that can deny Internet access to specified 
users, or filter all requests for specific services the administrator does not want to serve. The 
SpeedStream 2602’s firewall can also block common hacker attacks, including IP Spoofing, Land 
Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack, TCP null 
scan, and TCP SYN flooding.
Virtual Private Network – The SpeedStream 2602 supports three of the most commonly used VPN 
protocols: PPTP, L2TP and IPSec. These protocols allow remote users to establish a secure connection 
to their corporate network. If your service provider supports VPNs, any of these protocols can be used to 
create an authenticated and encrypted tunnel for passing secure data over the Internet. The VPN protocols 
supported by the SpeedStream 2602 are briefly described below:
-
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol provides a secure tunnel for remote client access to a PPTP 
security gateway. PPTP includes provisions for call origination and flow control required by ISPs.
-
Layer Two Tunneling Protocol includes most of the features provided by PPTP, but has less 
overhead and is more suited for managed networks.
-
IP Security provides IP network-layer encryption and can support large encryption networks, such 
as the Internet, by using digital certificates for device authentication.
