Reference Manual for the ProSafe Dual Band Wireless VPN Firewall FWAG114
2-4
Introduction
 
IP Address Sharing by NAT
 
The FWAG114 wireless firewall allows several networked PCs to share an Internet account 
using only a single IP address, which may be statically or dynamically assigned by your 
Internet service provider (ISP). This technique, known as NAT, allows the use of an 
inexpensive single-user ISP account.
Automatic Configuration of Attached PCs by DHCP
 
The FWAG114 wireless firewall dynamically assigns network configuration information, 
including IP, gateway, and domain name server (DNS) addresses, to attached PCs on the LAN 
using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This feature greatly simplifies 
configuration of PCs on your local network.
DNS Proxy
 
When DHCP is enabled and no DNS addresses are specified, the router provides its own 
address as a DNS server to the attached PCs. The router obtains actual DNS addresses from 
the ISP during connection setup and forwards DNS requests from the LAN.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
 
PPPoE is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over a DSL connection by 
simulating a dial-up connection. This feature eliminates the need to run a login program such 
as Entersys or WinPOET on your PC.
Easy Installation and Management
You can install, configure, and operate the ProSafe Dual Band Wireless VPN Firewall FWAG114 
within minutes after connecting it to the network. The following features simplify installation and 
management tasks:
Browser-based management
 
Browser-based configuration allows you to easily configure your router from almost any type 
of personal computer, such as Windows, Macintosh, or Linux. A user-friendly Setup Wizard is 
provided and online help documentation is built into the browser-based Web Management 
Interface.
Smart Wizard
 
The FWAG114 wireless firewall automatically senses the type of Internet connection, asking 
you only for the information required for your type of ISP account.
Diagnostic functions
 
The firewall incorporates built-in diagnostic functions such as Ping, DNS lookup, and remote 
reboot.
