1. Introduction
The Asanté FriendlyNET Cable/DSL routers allow users to safely share their high-speed Internet
connection with multiple users in a home or office. Most cable/DSL modem services only provide
one network address (known as an “IP address”) to limit their service to just one user. Asanté’s
router allows a single network address to be shared among multiple users in the same local area
network.
This Technical Reference manual is designed for the advanced user with a strong working
knowledge of networks, TCP/IP and routers. Please consult the FriendlyNET Cable/DSL Router
User’s Guide (with accompanying Quick Start Guide) for complete installation instructions. The
information contained in this document covers the hardware manufactured after August 2000
(Revision D and later) and firmware revision 2.0 and later (released December 2000).
Looking at the bottom label of the router, you can identify your product:

3. Hardware Details
This chapter visually presents the major hardware modules of the Asanté router.
A. FRONT PANEL STATUS INDICATORS

The Asanté FriendlyNET routers provide color-coded indicators to show the status of various
functions. The basic FR3004 (shown as the top unit in the photo above) provides LEDs for:
• Power. Green LED in the first position. When power is on, the LED is on.
• LAN Link-Activity: Two green LEDs for each local port. On the left, the LED is on when
there is a valid network connection. If there is network activity (transmission or reception),
then the left LED will blink.
• LAN 100 Mbps: When there is a valid network connection, the right LED will be on for
100 Mbps mode and off for 10 Mbps.
• WAN Link-Activity: Green LED is on when there is a valid network connection. If there is
network activity (transmission or reception), then the LED will blink. Since this port only
operates at 10 Mbps, there is no 100 Mbps LED.
• Printer (FR3004LC): On when the print server is active.
• COM (FR3004/FR3004LC): On when the COM port is activated (the WAN type is set for
dial-up or ISDN).
• System Status: Amber LED blinks during power on self-test and turns off when the unit
is ready for operation. When the print server is active this LED will turn on. In addition, if
the router is set for some WAN types (Dynamic IP, DSL/PPPoE, Dial-up or ISDN), the
LED will stay on.

Note: Early production models (prior to August 2000) of the routers had slightly different LED
indicators.
• Power. Green LED in the first position. When power is on, the LED blinks.
• LAN 100 Mbps: When there is a valid network connection, the left LED will be on for 100
Mbps mode and off for 10 Mbps.
• LAN Link-Activity: On the right, the LED is on when there is a valid network connection.
If there is network activity (transmission or reception), then the LED will blink.
• WAN Link-Activity: Green LED is on when there is a valid network connection. If there is
network activity (transmission or reception), then the LED will blink. Since this port only
operates at 10 Mbps, there is no 100 Mbps LED.
• Printer (FR3004LC): On when the print server is active.
• COM (FR3004/FR3004LC): On when the COM port is activated (the WAN type is set for
dial-up or ISDN).
• System Status: Amber LED blinks during power on self-test and other operations

B. REAR PANEL CONNECTORS
Asanté FriendlyNET FR3004 (top) and FR3004LC (bottom)
Looking at the routers from the rear, the following connectors are available:
• COM: serial (DB-9 female connector). This PC-style “COM” port is commonly used with
analog (v.90/56K) and ISDN modems. Maximum baud rate is 153,600. Tolerates +3.0%
overspeed and 2.5% underspeed.
Pin Number Signal Name

1 CD Carrier Detect
2 RD Receive Data
3 TD Transmit Data
4 DTR Data Terminal Ready
5 SG Signal Ground
6 DSR Data Set Ready
7 RTS Request to Send
8 CD Carrier Detect
9 RI Ring Indicator
Note: For the FR3004LC routers, the WAN port is menu-selectable for COM or WAN
(10BaseT).
To connect a typical modem to the router’s COM port, you will need a standard modem
(“straight through”) cable. To connect the router’s COM port to a PC, use a “null modem”
cable and terminal emulation software (e.g., Windows HyperTerminal).

Suggested “null modem” wiring:

Tip: To connect the router to another hub or switch,

1. Connect a cable from the uplink port on the other network device. Typically it’s
either the first or last port.
2. Push the button or slide switch to the “uplink” position.
3. Connect the other end of the cable from to one of the router’s LAN ports (1-4).
4. On Asanté FriendlyNET FH300 Series hubs and FS5000 switches, connect a

cable from port 1 and press the uplink switch in. Connect the other end of the
cable to one of the router’s LAN ports (1-4).
• 12 VDC: Power inlet (12 VDC, + polarity center). Connect the appropriate external power
module (included with the router) to this connector and AC power.

C. BOTTOM VIEW
The bottom of the router contains four sections:
• Mounting holes.
• Rubber feet (not shown) are user-installable.
• Product identification label showing model number (e.g.FR3004), regulatory information
(compliance with FCC and CE), AsantéCare warranty and service information and other
details.
• Two screws used to secure the assembly of the unit.

4. FriendlyStack Design
Asanté’s router is a member of the FriendlyNET 10/100 hub, switch and router family. Each
product is beautifully presented in Asanté’s distinctive FriendlyStack™ case—the result of careful
design with an exceptional eye for detail. This chapter highlights the key mechanical attributes of
the FriendlyStack industrial design.
DESIGN FEATURES
The Asanté FriendlyStack case was designed to meet the rigorous needs of Asanté’s potential
customers. Primary purchasers would be home business and small office users. Since these
customers may have limited networking experience, every element of the product design must be
intuitive.
• Stackable to minimize desktop space (“footprint”). There is no limit to the number of units
that may be stacked together, but a practical limit is about 8 units.
• Front-mounted status indicators lets you easily view
the color-coded LEDs. The array of LEDs is angled
for improved visibility from all angles (both
horizontally and vertically).
• Logically-oriented connectors. All ports, including
power, LAN and WAN are located directly across
from the LEDs. When troubleshooting connections,
face the front of the unit and check the appropriate
cable connections.
• Angled case profile promotes convection cooling.
Internal components can be air cooled without a potentially noisy fan.

• Metal bottom chassis provides a very rigid design and it also draws heat away from the
internal components.
• Shielded design allows the product to pass strict EMI
standards for use in homes and offices (FCC Part 15, Class
B). Some components (LAN and WAN connectors) are
double-shielded for extra margin.
• Molded hooks and mounting holes provide physical
protection from unauthorized removal or theft. To easily
mount this unit on a tabletop, wall or underneath a tabletop,
install screws in the topside of the case. For use in public
areas (kiosks, libraries, schools), two additional concealed
holes are in the bottom metal of the unit.
• Common 12 VDC external power is used to power each Asanté hub, switch or router,
and may be interchanged among compatible products. In certain mobile applications
(automobile, minivan or truck) or in the event a back-up power supply is required, 12
VDC is easier to obtain and more efficient than other voltages (5 VDC or 7.5 VDC).
• AsantéCare product information label provides detailed technical support and
warranty information. A dated label (set for 12 months from date of manufacture plus 3
months’ grace period) provides information on service and support.
COMPATIBLE FRIENDLYSTACK PRODUCTS

Today, Asanté manufactures more than half a dozen products that have the same FriendlyStack
design.
• FriendlyNET 10/100 Cable/DSL Router, Model FR3004

• FriendlyNET 10/100 Cable/DSL Router, Mode FR3004C
• FriendlyNET 10/100 Cable/DSL Router, Model FR3004LC
• FriendlyNET 5-port 10/100 Switch, Model FS5005
• FriendlyNET 8-port 10/100 Switch, Model FR5008
• FriendlyNET 5-port 10/100 Hub, Model FR305
• FriendlyNET 8-port 10/100 Hub, Model FR308
UNDERSTANDING ASANTÉ FRIENDLYSTACK MODEL NUMBERS

With over one hundred active products in Asanté’s product lines, it can be challenging to equate a
model number with a feature set. Here’s the logic behind these FriendlyNET model numbers.
• F: Since all of these products belong to the FriendlyNET family, the first letter is “F.”
• R: The second letter describes the major function of the product. “R” is for router, “S” for
switch and “H” for hub.
• 3000: Each series (3000 for routers, 5000 for switches, 300 for hubs) groups similar
products. 4-digit series numbers are for products with a switch; 3-digit series are for hubs.
• 3004: The last digit(s) correspond to the number of significant ports. Even though the
routers may have more than four ports, by convention only the number of LAN ports are
counted.
• L: Suffix of “L” corresponds to the PC-style LPT (or printer) port.
• C: Suffix of “C” corresponds to the PC-style COM (or serial) port.

5. Upgrading to Firmware Version 2
In January 2001, Asanté released a major upgrade to the firmware for the FR3000 Series routers.
Dubbed “Version 2,” this firmware may be used to upgrade the FR3004 and FR3004LC routers
with these important improvements:
• Improved login. For security purposes, the router’s network configuration is hidden until
the user is successfully logged in.
• More intuitive WAN types. New entries for DSL/PPP over Ethernet, Always On DSL,
Cable modems, ISDN, and more.
• Simplified setup. After selecting a WAN type, just complete one screen (with context-
sensitive parameters) to set up the router.
• Added DHCP list to show addresses for connected computers.
• Improved virtual private network (VPN) support.
• Upgraded security.
• Integrated firmware upgrade utility for Mac OS, Windows and Linux/Unix. In the event of
an incomplete upgrade the last successfully installed firmware will be used.

UPGRADING TO VERSION 2
To upgrade the FriendlyNET router from firmware version R1.x, download the new R2.x file from
the Asanté support website.
• From a Mac, use the Asanté Upgrade Firmware utility. The default password is admin
(lower case). Navigate to the file (e.g., fn202.bin) and click on the Upgrade button.
• From a Windows computer, run the program (e.g., fn202.exe) and follow the on-screen
instructions. Read the Readme file and click the OK button to continue. The program will
search for the router at the default IP address (192.168.123.254).

Enter the administrator’s password; factory default is admin (lower case). Click on the
Upgrade button to install the new firmware.
After the upgrade is completed successfully, the router will restart.
• From a Linux computer, you can ftp the new firmware (e.g., fn202.bin) directly into the
router.
C:\> ftp 192.168.123.254
User: root
Password: admin
ftp> put fn202.bin
ftp> bye

6. Router Administration
To login into the router, use a web browser like Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer (Mac or
Windows versions). In the Address field, enter the IP address of the router and press the Enter
key. The factory default IP address is 192.168.123.254.
Tip: With most browsers, just enter the IP address; the http:// prefix is optional.
Tip: To save typing in the future, you may want to bookmark this address (or save as a “favorite”).
If the initial Login screen does not appear (“timeout” condition):

• Check for a valid network connection between the computer and the router. A standard
straight-through (not “crossover”) Ethernet cable must be used between the computer’s
network adapter and one of the router’s numbered LAN ports (1-4). Do not connect the
computer to the router’s WAN port. Verify that the Link status indicator is on for both the
computer’s network adapter and the router.
• Disable all proxy server, firewall, and Internet sharing software. Also disable Internet
software used for your DSL/PPPoE service (e.g., Ivasion MacPOET,/WinPOET,
Sympatico Access Manager, NTS EnterNet ).
• Verify your browser’s connections. From Netscape Navigator, Edit | Preferences |
Advanced | Proxies, click on “Direct Connection to the Internet.” From Microsoft Internet
Explorer, Tools | Internet Options | Connections | LAN Settings, verify that you are not
attempting to dial a connection.
MS Internet Explorer: Verify that there are no Dial-up settings

MS Internet Explorer: Verify that a proxy server is not selected
Tip: If you are still unable to connect to the router, you may want to reset the router to factory
defaults. See Appendix B: Reset.
A. LOGIN
The new login screen is dramatically simpler than its predecessor. For security reasons, minimal
information is presented on this screen.
Enter your password and click on the Login button.

If your Login fails, click on the OK button and re-enter your password. The password is case
sensitive; ADMIN and admin are considered different passwords.
For security purposes, the router features automatic logout. After an extended period of inactivity,
you will need to re-enter your password.
B. M AIN MENUS
All of the router’s features are configured using these four menus:
• Setup is used to configured the router’s Internet connection

• Status displays the status of the router and attached peripherals
• Security allows you to configure the router’s password and integrated firewall (port
access, popular applications)
• Advanced provides access to router firmware updates, DHCP server and routing for
distributed servers
Most users will only need to use the Setup menu. Advanced users with a good understanding of
TCP/IP will be able to understand and use the features on the last three menus.
Each screen is described in greater detail in the following four chapters.

7. Setup Screen
This menu allows users to configure their network connection for the eight most popular Internet
connections.
The router shows eight different wide area network (Internet) types. Choosing one the WAN
Types and clicking on the Save & Next button brings up a context-sensitive Setup screen that
displays only the network parameters required for your configuration.

This screen is used to complete the router set up for cable or DSL Internet connections with a
dynamic IP network address.
Auto-reconnect will detect the dropped network link, wait 60 seconds and then automatically re-
connect to the Internet. If the connection fails, then it will wait 30 seconds and try again.

B. PPP OVER ETHERNET (PPPOE) SETUP
This screen is used to complete the router set up for DSL connections using point-to-point
protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE).
Note: Although the router will attempt to auto-reconnect whenever the PPPoE session is
terminated, some ISPs may limit the maximum connection time and turn off the link.
C. STATIC IP SETUP
This screen is used to complete the router set up for network connections with a fixed IP address
(cable or DSL).

D. @HOME-LIKE SETUP
This screen is used to complete the router setup for @Home-like cable modem services.
E. ANALOG/ISDN MODEM SETUP
This screen is used to complete the router set up for external analog (v.90, 56K) or ISDN digital
modems using the FR3004C/FR3004LC router’s COM port.
Tip: In the event your cable or DSL service becomes slow or unavailable, an external modem
connected to your FR3004C/FR3004LC router’s COM port can provide an alternate route to the
Internet.

F. RESTARTING ROUTER
For all WAN types other than Dynamic IP, save your settings and click Restart Router. A
confirmation dialog box appears; click OK button to restart the router. You will need to re-enter
your password at the login screen.

8. Status Screen
The Status screen allows you to:

• Renew your IP network address
• Copy the MAC address from the network adapter installed in your computer (required for
some Internet services)
• View the system log
• View a list of computers and their network addresses assigned by the router’s DHCP
service
• Refresh the status of the router and attached peripherals (if any)
• Finish configuring the router and log out

A. COPY MAC ADDRESS
Click OK to change the router’s media access control (MAC) address to match the address of the
network adapter installed in your computer. Some Internet service providers (e.g., MediaOne) use
this mechanism to limit the use of routers.
To copy the MAC address from your computer with a valid Internet connection to the router:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to the router. Do not attach any other
devices to the router.
2. From the Status screen, record the Router MAC address onto a separate piece of
paper. It has the format 00:00:94:XX:XX:XX.
3. Click on the Copy from Client button. The MAC address of the computer you are using
will be cloned onto the router.
4. Restart the router for the changes to be finalized.
5. From the router’s Status screen, compare the new Router MAC address with the
number you recorded in step 2; it should be different.
Note: This command is also available from the Advanced screen.

B. SYSTEM LOG
The System Log is a powerful tool for viewing the events handled by the router including:
• DHCP assignments
• Login and logouts
• Unrecognized access (with port number)
By monitoring this log, it’s easy to see when potential unauthorized users or systems may be
trying to access your network

Tip: To copy the text of your system log to your system clipboard, highlight the text and use
Command+C (Mac OS) or Control+C (Windows). To paste it into an email or other document, use
Command+V (Mac OS) or Control+V (Windows).
C. DHCP CLIENT LIST
The DHCP Client List shows the DHCP assignments made by the router’s DHCP server.
Each attached computer should be configured to automatically receive network configuration.

See your Chapter 3 (Configuring DHCP for Macintosh Computers) and Chapter 4 (Configuring
DHCP for Windows Computers) in your User’s Guide.
To configure the router’s DHCP server, go to the Advanced screen.
The Change LAN IP Address sets the address of the router and the base address for the DHCP
server.
The DHCP Server Setup section sets the range for the IP address pool.

9. Security Screen
All of the router’s advanced security features may be configured in this screen:
• Administrator’s password
• Port access control (with group security)
• Popular applications
• Unsecured demilitarized zone (DMZ)
• Remote host administration
For normal router operation, there is no need to modify the settings on this screen. By default, the
router is configured with:
• All incoming ports blocked except 67 (bootstrap protocol) and 113 (authentication server)
• All outgoing ports open
Note: Most of the features in this menu should only be configured by users with an extensive
knowledge of TCP/IP.
A. ADMINISTRATOR’S PASSWORD
Set the router administrator’s password. Default is admin.
Tip: If you forget your password, reset the router to its factory default values. See Appendix B:
Reset.

B. PORT ACCESS CONTROL
Port Access Control allows you to assign different access right to different groups of users.
1. Divide users into groups based upon the access rights you’d like to assign them (block or
deny access to services).
2. List the group members (hosts) by the last digits of their IP address. Enter 20 for the
address corresponding to 192.168.123.20.
3. List the right for each group are either allow or block specific TCP and UDP ports.

For example,
Group Right Ports (IP or UDP) Hosts (Users)

Comments
Default Allow With no entries in the Ports and
Hosts fields, the default group has
no access to the Internet (allow
nothing)
2 Allow 25, 53, 80, 110 100-149 50 members (192.168.123.100
through 192.168.123.149) can
send mail (port 25), receive mail
(port 110) and browse the Internet
(80). Port 53 (DNS) is required to
resolved domain names
3 Block 21, 119 150-199 50 members (192.168.123.150
through 192.168.123.199) can do
anything except read net news
(port 119) and transfer files via
FTP (port 21)
4 Block 10, 20 2 members (192.168.123.10 and
192.168.123.20) have full access
(block nothing).
Port numbers are divided into three ranges: the Well Known Ports are those from 0 through 1023;
Registered Ports are those from 1024 through 49151 and the Dynamic and/or Private Ports are
those from 49152 through 65535
The Well Known Ports are assigned by the IANA and on most systems can only be used by
system (or root) processes or by programs executed by privileged users. See ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-
notes/iana/assignments/port-numbers for a comprehensive list of ports.
Ports are used in the TCP [RFC793] to name the ends of logical connections that carry long-term
conversations. For the purpose of providing services to unknown callers, a service contact port is
defined. This list specifies the port used by the server process as its contact port. The contact
port is sometimes called the "well-known port". To the extent possible, these same port
assignments are used with the UDP [RFC768].

Common TCP and UDP service ports include:
Port Service
20 FTP-DATA
21 FTP
23 Telnet, Internet BBS
25 SMTP, Send mail
53 DNS
67 BOOTP bootstrap protocol
79 Finger
80 HTTP, worldwide web
110 POP3, receive mail
113 AUTH, authentication
119 NNTP, net news
161 SNMP, network management
162 SNMP-TRAP, network management
443 HTTPS, secure worldwide web
517 TALK
518 NTALK
1723 PPTP, Microsoft VPN (virtual private network)
2049 NFS, Sun Network File System
Tip: This list above may be found in the router’s Administration screen. In the Port Access Control
section, click on the Help button and then the Internet Services link.
By default, the router is configured with:
• All incoming ports are blocked except 67 (bootstrap protocol) and 113 (authentication
server)
• All outgoing ports are open

C. POPULAR APPLICATIONS
Popular Applications, including Internet games, video conferencing and Internet telephony may
require special settings. This section allows you to selectively configure the router’s integrated
firewall.
• Trigger is the outbound (OUT) port number used by your application.

• When the trigger packet is detected, inbound packets from the Incoming Port (IN) are
allowed to pass through the firewall.
For normal router operation, there is no need to modify the settings on this screen. By default, the
router is configured with:
• All incoming ports blocked except 67 (bootstrap protocol) and 113 (authentication server)
• All outgoing ports open
Tip: The router provides an “expression builder” to quickly insert the parameters for a popular
application. You may edit the values by changing the values.
Tip: Some applications (e.g. Microsoft NetMeeting) cannot be successfully configured with
Popular Applications. Configure the computer to use one of the other advanced features (e.g.,
DMZ).
Tip: ICQ must be configured for use with the router’s firewall. From the menu, choose Preference
| Connections. Check the “I’m behind a firewall or proxy” option. Set the maximum timeout to 80
seconds.

Information on popular applications is subject to change at any time. The following list is from
Practically Networked (www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/app_port_list.htm). The list is
organized into five sections:
• Messaging & Conferencing (CuSeeMe, H.323, NetMeeting, ICQ, MSN Messenger,

Net2Phone)
• Audio & Video (Napster, GNUtella, QuickTime 4 Server, RealAudio)
• Games (Delta Force, MSN Game Zone, Quake)
• Common Servers (FTP, POP3, SMTP, Telnet)
• Other (Citrix, CarbonCopy32, Laplink, pcANYWHERE, Windows 2000 Terminal Server)
Tip: Enter the OUT values as the Trigger and all of the IN values as the Incoming Port.

I found that port range 9900-9901 UDP is also needed but not mentioned
at phonefree support.
Also shut off any other firewall programs you may have running.
To make PC-TO-PHONE calls, it seems only UDP port 9900 must be opened
(the fewer ports open, the better!).

D. ADVANCED SECURITY
This section defines two important security features:
• A computer (DMZ host) logically outside of the router’s protective firewall
• Restrictions for remote administration of this router
To open a computer to a popular application, use the Popular Applications settings. To setup a
computer as server, use the Virtual server settings. Setting a DMZ (demilitarized zone) host is the
last priority. If your application requires multiple TCP/IP ports, then DMZ may be the only option.
Enter the IP address of the computer and check the Enable box. The router can support only one
computer as a DMZ host.
Normally the router should be configured from a computer attached to one of router’s LAN ports.
To administer the router from the Internet:
• Enter the exact IP address of the computer used for remote administration
• To use multiple computers in the same network for remote administration, use a subnet
mask bit number modifier. For example, 1.2.3.4/30 represents the four remote computers
1.2.3.4 through 1.2.3.7
• To allow any computer for remote administration (not recommended), enter 0.0.0.0
Note: Turning on remote host administration automatically binds the router’s internal
administration web server to port 88. Enter the IP address of your router along with the port
number in the format http://X.X.X.X:88. For example, http://192.168.123.254:88

10. Advanced Screen
This menu configures the more specialized functions of the router. For normal router operation,
there is no need to modify the settings on this screen.
• Advanced Router Setup (router IP address, factory reset, restart, upgrade firmware)
• DHCP Server Setup (starting and ending address range)
• Virtual Server Setup
Note: Most of the features in this menu should only be configured by users with an extensive
knowledge of TCP/IP.
A. ADVANCED ROUTER SETUP
Change LAN IP Address

The router supports a Class C network (256 IP addresses). Since X.X.X.0 and X.X.X.255 are
reserved, the default address for the router is X.X.X.254; there are 253 remaining addresses
available for the network.
Note: Changing the address of the router also changes the base address of the DHCP server.
Copy MAC Address

This router is compatible with Internet services that limit the use of routers by restricting their
service to a specific network adapter in one computer. By cloning the media access control
(MAC) address from an attached computer, the router circumvents this limitation.

To copy the MAC address from your computer with a valid Internet connection to the router:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to the router. Do not attach any other
devices to the router.
2. Click on the Copy MAC Address button. The MAC address of the computer you are
using will be cloned onto the router.
3. Restart the router for the changes to be finalized.
Note: This command is also available from the Status screen.
Factory Defaults
To reset the router to the factory default settings, click on the Factory Defaults button.
Restart Router
To reinitialize the router (similar to power off/on), click on the Restart Router button. A Restart
router prompt appears whenever a special router feature or a WAN type is changed.
Upgrade Firmware
To upgrade the router’s software:
1. Click on the Upgrade Firmware button.
2. Click on www.asante.com link to visit the Asanté Technologies website. Navigate to the
FriendlyNET Cable/DSL Router technical support section.
3. Download the new router firmware to your computer.
4. From the router’s Firmware Filename screen, click on Browse and navigate to the
location of the firmware you just downloaded.
5. Click on the Upgrade button to install the new firmware. The router will automatically
restart.
Note: Firmware version 2.0 (and later) incorporates a dual bank FLASH firmware design. After
the new firmware is installed, the router is restarted and the checksum of the new firmware is
verified. In the event the checksum fails, the router will attempt to restart with the last “known
good” version of firmware. Although this design is not foolproof, it does provide added protection
in the event the new firmware was corrupted during transfer or was improperly installed.

Minor firmware updates (e.g., from 2.0 to 2.02) only handle specific bug fixes; if your router is
functioning properly, there is no advantage for upgrading to a new version. Significant firmware
upgrades (e.g., from 1.87 to 2.00) may provide valuable new features; if your network requires
the new features, then it may be worthwhile to install the new firmware.
B. DHCP SERVER SETUP

The router features a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server that will automatically
assign:
• Network IP addresses
• Subnet mask
for each computer attached to the router. Each computer must be configured to automatically
receive IP addresses automatically.
TCP/IP Properties screen from Microsoft Windows show the option to obtain IP address information automatically.

The lowest starting address is 1. The highest ending address is typically 253 if the router is set for
254.
C. DISTRIBUTED SERVERS SETUP

One of the more powerful features of the router is the Distributed Servers feature. For a small
business with two or more Internet servers, the router can balance the workload between multiple
machines. For example, if your network server is overloaded, you can delegate specific network
services to two or more machines. If you had three servers, you could dedicate one server to
handle each of these services:
• Port 80 (HTTP) web server

• Port 53 (DNS) name server
• Port 500 (VPN) direct connection to virtual private network
Of course each server must have the appropriate software installed to handle the specific service.

The Service Port is a TCP or UDP port number. A comprehensive list of ports may be found in
chapter 9 (Security: Port Access).
Port Service
20 FTP-DATA
21 FTP
23 Telnet, Internet BBS
25 SMTP, Send mail
53 DNS
67 BOOTP bootstrap protocol
79 Finger
80 HTTP, worldwide web
110 POP3, receive mail
113 AUTH, authentication
119 NNTP, net news
161 SNMP, network management
162 SNMP-TRAP, network management
443 HTTPS, secure worldwide web
517 TALK
518 NTALK
1723 PPTP, Microsoft VPN (virtual private network)
2049 NFS, Sun Network File System
Tip: At the bottom of this section, the router provides an “expression builder” to quickly insert the
values for common ports. You may edit the values by changing the values.

11. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the maximum number of users supported by the router?
This is a Class C router that supports a maximum of 256 IP network addresses. Since X.X.X.0
and X.X.X.255 are reserved and the router takes one IP address (typically X.X.X.254), there are
253 (256 - 3 = 253) available addresses.
2. How secure is the firewall built into the router?

This router uses a natural network address translation (NAT) firewall that hides all local network
traffic. Traffic on the WAN (Internet) can only see the router. In addition, the router offers multiple
levels of advanced security:
• Log: Records all intrusion attempts in volatile memory.

• Port Access: User-definable triggers and ports open only upon demand.
• Group: Assign users to any of 3 groups (or default) to allow/block access to specific TCP
ports. For example, limit access to web browsing, send/receive email, read news, et al.
• Physical: Two hooks to limit movement with a security cable (not included). Four holes to
anchor unit to a table, wall or under a desktop. Two concealed holes in bottom metal
plate.
• Tampering: No externally accessible buttons, switches or knobs to change router/network
configuration, system password or other operating parameters
• DMZ: Selectable address for unrestricted 2-way communications (DeMilitarized Zone).
• Administration: Password protected. Remote address may be limited to only a specific IP
address or an address range.
• Storms: Hardware-based broadcast storm protection.
3. What is the router’s default configuration?

• IP address: 192.168.123.254
• Administrator’s Password: admin
• WAN type: Dynamic IP address (DHCP)
• Outgoing ports: All are open
• Incoming ports: Port 67 (BOOTP) and 113 (authentication) are turned on
4. Do you support virtual private network (VPN)?

The router supports point-to-point tunneling protocol (PPTP) and IPSec (tunnel mode) for
authentication and encryption. Encrypted VPN packets are passed to the client computer without
processing; the router does not act as a VPN server (but a VPN server can be connected to the
router). Up to four sessions of simultaneous PPTP are supported.
In some cases, you may need to use the router’s Distributed Servers feature to assign port 500 to
a specific computer.
5. Which printers are supported on the FR3004LC’s print server?

Asanté supports printers with a parallel port attached to the FR3004LC’s printer port. A standard
PC-style parallel printer port (with a DB25 connector one end) is required. Additional
requirements:
• Mac OS: Must be a Postscript (or compatible) printer with an associated PPD definition
file. Configure as an LPR printer. Use the router’s IP address for the printer. See HP’s
application note http://www.hp.com/cposupport/printers/support_doc/bpm01128.html for
details on printing with an HP LaserJet printer.
• Windows: Set printer driver for uni-directional mode. Bi-directional mode is not currently
supported.

• Windows 2000: Standard Windows NT drivers are supported (uni-directional mode) as
well as the LPR clients. The name of the spool is lp.
• Linux: Configure printer as an LPR device and use the router’s IP address for the printer.
The name of the spool is lp.
To date, Asanté has check tested HP LaserJet 4MP and Epson Stylus Color 740/880 models.
6. Does the FriendlyNET Cable/DSL Router require an ADSL or cable modem?

Yes. By industry convention, the product was named with “Cable/DSL” in its name. However, the
router does not include an integrated DSL or cable modem.
7. How fast is the router?

The router is capable of processing 1000 to 1500 packets per second (depending on the size of
each data packet). Under most conditions, the demonstrated throughput is 4 to 6 Mbps.
8. Can multiple players on my LAN get on a game server to play simultaneously with one
IP address?
In many cases, yes. For example, the router has been tested with Unreal with multiple logins and
one public IP address.
9. The router doesn’t seem to support my network application.

Check your application’s website for information on using it behind a firewall, gateway or proxy
server. Many commercial applications have special instructions on using their product behind an
network address translation (NAT) gateway.

12. Troubleshooting
Before attempting to install the router, be sure to start with a valid Internet connection.
1. Install the cable or DSL modem for one computer.

2. Verify that computer can successfully access the Internet. Open your web browser and
visit www.asante.com.
3. Record your computer’s network configuration information. See the Quick Start section in
the front of the User’s Guide for details. If you are using Mac OS, collect information from
the TCP/IP Control Panel. From a Windows 95/98/Me computer, run the program
winipcfg. From Windows NT/2000, run ipconfig. From Linux, run ifconfig.

BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Check your logical connection to the router. Try pinging 192.168.123.254. If there is no
response (timeout), then you may not have a valid network connection or the router is at
a different IP address.
• Ping your ISP’s gateway (last entry in the table above) and asante.com
• Release and renew your IP address. If that’s not possible, then restart your computer and
the router by turning the power off and on
• Check for Link LEDs on the router and your network adapters
• Re-check your WAN type
• Verify the cables linking the cable/DSL modem to the router
BEFORE CALLING ASANTÉ TECHNICAL SUPPORT

• Complete the table at the top of this page or the one in the User’s Guide. If you are
uncertain about any parameter, then consult your ISP
• Copy the router’s on-screen system log into a text file for later reference
• Check the troubleshooting tips on the www.asante.com website

Appendix A. Overview of Internet Concepts
Asanté FriendlyNET Cable/DSL routers are based on popular Internet technologies. TCP/IP,
transmission control protocol/internet protocol is the foundation for the Internet and the worldwide
web. The smallest unit on the Internet is known as a host (or “computer” in this document).
Multiple computers (hosts) form a subnet. Subnets are connected to the Internet through a
gateway (or “router”).
Each computer (host) has the following settings:

• Unique IP address. Numerically, the address has the form X.X.X.X where X is a typically
number from 1 to 254.
• Subnet mask is the value so that the computer can quickly locate its neighbors (on the
subnet)
• Default gateway (or router) handles all communications from computers on the subnet to
non-neighbor computers on the Internet. All computers must contact their non-neighbor
computers via this gateway.
• Domain name server (DNS) is a server that translates human-readable host names (e.g.,
asante.com) into an IP address (192.108.250.1).
The router uses network address translation (NAT) technology to share the single IP address with
all the computers connected to the router’s local area network.

Appendix B. Reset
If you forget the Administrator’s password or need to reset the IP address of the router, there are
several ways to reset the router to the factory default values.
FACTORY DEFAULTS
From the Administrator’s Advanced screen, click on the Factory Defaults button to reset the
router to the original factory default settings.
CONSOLE MODE
For FR3004C/FR3004LC routers with a COM serial port, a set of
commands is available to reset the router.
1. Connect a null modem cable from the router’s COM port to

your computer’s COM port.
2. Run a terminal emulation program (e.g., Windows
HyperTerminal). If you have HyperTerminal installed on
your Windows computer, it can be found from the Start button. Choose Programs |
Accessories | Communications | HyperTerminal.
3. Set the terminal connection parameters to 19200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
(19200, 8-N-1).
4. Turn the router off and then on.
5. When the router’s COM port LED flashes, press the Enter key on your computer’s
keyboard several times. The > symbol will appear on your screen.
6. To reset the router’s IP address, type:
IP 192.168.123.254
SR
7. To reset the Administrator’s password, type:
PW admin
SR
The SR command is used to save your changes.

COM PORT RESET
The following procedure is recommended for semi-technical users.
To temporarily reset the FR3004C/FR3004LC router from the COM port:

1. Power off the router.
2. Use a small wire (or paper clip) and short pins 3 and 8.
3. Power on the router while keeping pins 3 and 8 shorted for about 5
seconds
