5.7 System Logs  
The router automatically logs (records) events of  
possible interest in its internal memory. If there is not  
enough internal memory for all events, logs of older  
events are deleted, but logs of the latest events are  
retained. The log options allow you to filter the router  
logs so you can easily find relevant messages. This  
router also has external Syslog Server support so  
you can send the log files to a computer on your  
network that is running a Syslog utility.  
Auto Update: The logs automatically refresh  
whenever the router creates a new message.  
Update: Click to check for new router messages.  
Save log to a file: This will open a dialog in your  
browser that will allow you to save the router's log to  
your computer.  
Search: Enter keywords to find specific events.  
Level: Select/Deselect from the following levels to  
filter messages by priority.

6.1 Content Filtering  
You have two main options for filtering  
content in a network created through your  
IBR650.  
1) Domain / URL Filter Rules: Create a  
list of websites that will be either  
disallowed (facebook.com, for  
example) or allowed exclusively (your  
company‘s website, for example).  
2) OpenDNS Content Filtering: Allows  
several options for filtering rules.  
To create Domain / URL Filter Rules, simply input one or more website domain names or URLs. By default, these  
websites will be disallowed as part of a Blacklist. You can change this to a Whitelist to exclusively allow these sites.  
Enable Whitelist: Domain / URL filters allow you to block access from your network to any external domain or website.  
Enabling this as a Whitelist will allow access to only those sites in the list.

6.1.1 OpenDNS  
OpenDNS is a service that protects you  
online by filtering websites. OpenDNS  
protects you from phishing websites and  
URL typos once you select a filtering level.  
None: Disables Web filtering that  
uses OpenDNS,  
Minimal: Filters phishing and URL  
typos.  
Good: Filters any Web site containing  
pornography and enables typo and  
phishing redirection.  
Better: Filters more nudity, sexuality,  
and tasteless content.  
Best: Filters more nudity, sexuality,  
and tasteless content. Selecting ―Best‖ will filter all content that is deemed adult content by OpenDNS.  
Custom: Custom OpenDNS settings. See below for more information.  
In addition to the standard filtering levels,  
you have the following options for filter  
control:  
Custom OpenDNS: To use the Custom  
OpenDNS setting you need to first create an  
OpenDNS account. You can create an  
account at OpenDNS and click on the  
Create Accountlink. Follow the onscreen  
instructions to create an account.  
Once you have an OpenDNS account, enter your account information in order to use your Custom OpenDNS settings.  
Custom OpenDNS settings use the DNS-O-MATIC (an OpenDNS Service) API to update the IP address of your

OpenDNS network. In order for Custom settings to work you need to login to DNS-O-MATIC using your OpenDNS  
credentials and "Add A Service" for the network specified above.  
Enable OpenDNS ISP Filter Bypass Algorithm: It is possible that your Internet Service Provider (ISP) uses the port that  
OpenDNS is configured to access, port 53, which will prevent OpenDNS filtering. If OpenDNS does not appear to be  
working correctly, enabling this will attempt to bypass those ports when using an OpenDNS content filtering level.

6.2 DHCP Server (Advanced Mode only)  
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The built-in DHCP server automatically assigns IP addresses to  
the computers and other devices on each local area network (LAN). In this section you can view a list of assigned IP  
addresses and reserve IP addresses for particular devices.  
Active Leases: A list of devices that have  
been provided DHCP leases. The DHCP  
server automatically assigns these leases.  
This list will not include any devices that  
have static IP addresses on the network.  
Reservations: This option lets you reserve  
IP addresses; you can assign the same IP  
address to the network device with the  
specified MAC address any time it requests  
an IP address. This is almost the same as  
when a device has a static IP address except that the device must still request an IP address from the router. The router  
will provide the device the same IP address every time. DHCP Reservations are helpful for server computers on the local  
network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network should either use a static IP  
address or a reservation.  
While you have the option to manually input the information to reserve an IP address (Hostname, Hardware Addr, IP  
Addr), it is much simpler to select a device under the Active Leases section and click ―Reserve.‖ The selected devices  
information will automatically be added under Reservations.

6.3 DNS (Advanced Mode only)  
DNS, or Domain Name System, is a naming system that translates between domain names (www.cradlepoint.com, for  
example) and internet IP addresses (206.207.82.197). A DNS server acts as an internet phone book, translating between  
names that make sense to people and the more complex numerical identifiers. The DNS page for the IBR650 has these  
distinct functions:  
DNS Settings: By default your router is set to automatically acquire DNS servers through your internet provider  
(Automatic). DNS Settings allows you to specify DNS servers of your choosing instead (Static).  
Dynamic DNS Configuration: Allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, etc.) using a domain name that you have  
purchased (www.yourname.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address.  
Known Hosts Configuration: Allows you to map a name (printer, scanner, laptop, etc.) to an IP address of a  
device on the network.  
6.3.1 DNS Settings  
You have the option to choose specific DNS  
servers for your network instead of using the DNS  
servers assigned by your internet provider. The  
default DNS servers are usually adequate. You  
may want to assign DNS servers if the default DNS  
servers are performing poorly, if you want clients to  
access DNS servers that you use for customized  
addressing, or if you have a local DNS server on your network.  
Automatic Config: Automatic or Static (default: Automatic). Switching to ―Static‖ enables you to set specific DNS servers  
in the Primary DNS and Secondary DNS fields.  
Primary DNS and Secondary DNS: If you choose to specify your DNS servers, then enter the IP addresses of the  
servers you want as your primary and secondary DNS servers in these fields. For example, Google Public DNS servers  
have the IP addresses 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 while 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.3 are servers from Level 3 Communications.

6.3.2 Dynamic DNS Configuration  
The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, etc.) using a domain name that you have purchased  
(www.yourname.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service Providers assign  
dynamic (changing) IP addresses. When you use a Dynamic DNS service provider, you can enter your host name to  
connect to your server, no matter what your IP address is.  
Enable Dynamic DNS Service: Enable this  
option only if you have purchased your own  
domain name and registered with a Dynamic  
DNS service provider.  
Server Type. Select a Dynamic DNS service  
provider from the pull-down list:  
www.DynDNS.org  
www.DNSomatic.com  
www.ChangeIP.com  
www.NO-IP.com  
Custom Server (DynDNS clone)  
Custom Server Address. Only available if you  
select Custom Server from the Server Address  
dropdown list. Enter your custom dynamic DNS  
server address here. The server must support  
the Dynamic DNS protocol. See  
www.dyndns.org for details. Example:  
myserver.mydomain.net.  
Host name: Enter your host name, fully qualified. For example: myhost.mydomain.net.  
User name: Enter the user name or key provided by the Dynamic DNS service provider. If the Dynamic DNS provider  
supplies only a key, enter that key for both the User name and Password fields.  
Password: Enter the password or key provided by the Dynamic DNS service provider.

Update period (hours). (Default: 576.) The time between periodic updates to the Dynamic DNS if your dynamic IP  
address has not changed. The timeout period is entered in hours so valid values are from 1 to 8760.  
Override External IP. The external IP is usually configured automatically during connection. However, in situations where  
the unit is within a private network behind a firewall or router, the network's external IP address will have to be manually  
configured in this field.  
You may find out what your external IP address is by going to http://myip.dnsomatic.com/ in a web browser.  
6.3.4 Known Hosts Configuration  
The Known Hosts Configuration feature allows  
you to map a name (printer, scanner, laptop, etc.)  
to an IP address of a device on the network. This  
assigns a new hostname that can be used to  
conveniently identify a device within the network,  
such as an office printer.  
Click Add to name a device in your network.  
Fill in the following fields:  
Hostname: Choose a name that is meaningful to you. No  
spaces are allowed in this field.  
IP address: The address of the device within your  
network.  
EXAMPLE: a personal laptop with IP address 192.168.0.164 could be  
assigned the name ―MyLaptop‖.  
Since the assigned name is mapped to an IP address, the  
device‘s IP address should not change. To ensure that the device keeps the same IP address, go to the ―Reservations‖  
section under Network Settings DHCP Server and reserve the IP address for the device.

6.4 Firewall (Advanced Mode only)  
The router automatically provides a firewall. Unless you configure the router to the contrary, the router does not respond  
to unsolicited incoming requests on any port, thereby making your LAN invisible to cyber attackers.  
However, some network applications cannot run with a tight firewall. Those applications need to selectively open ports in  
the firewall to function correctly. The options on this page control ways of opening the firewall to address the needs of  
specific types of applications.  
6.4.1 Port Forwarding Rules  
A port forwarding rule allows traffic from the  
internet to reach a computer on the inside of your  
network. For example, a port forwarding rule might  
be used to run a Web server.  
Exercise caution when adding new rules as they impact the security of your network.  
Click Add to create a new port forwarding rule.  
Add New Port Forwarding Rule: page 1  
Name: Name your rule.  
Description: Enter a short description of this rule for future  
reference.

Add New Port Forwarding Rule: page 2  
Use Port Range: Changes the selection options to allow you  
to input a range of ports (if desired).  
Internet Port(s): The port number(s) as you want it defined on  
the internet. Typically these will be the same as the local port  
numbers, but they do not have to be. These numbers will be  
mapped to the local port numbers.  
Local Computer: Select the IP address of an attached device  
from the dropdown menu, or manually input the IP address of a  
device.  
Local Port(s): The port number(s) that corresponds to the service (Web server, FTP, etc) on a local computer or  
device.  
For example, you might input ―80‖ in the Local Port(s) field to open a port for a Web server on a computer within  
your network. The Internet Port(s) field could then also be 80, or you could choose another port number that will  
be used across the internet to access your Web server. If you choose a number other than 80 for the internet Port,  
connections to that number will be mapped to 80and therefore the Web serverwithin your network.  
Add New Port Forwarding Rule: page 3  
Protocol: Select from the following options in the dropdown  
menu:

6.4.2 IP Filter Rules  
An "Incoming" IP filter rule restricts remote access  
to computers on your local network. "Outgoing" filter  
rules prevent computers on your local network from  
initiating communication to the address range  
specified in the rule.  
This feature is especially useful when combined with  
port forwarding and/or DMZ to restrict remote access to a specified host or network range. For example, in order to host a  
server you might have opened ports with a port forwarding rule that could expose your LAN to cyber attacks. With an  
incoming IP filter rule, you can restrict the access to your LAN to only known devices.  
Name: Name your rule.  
Direction: ―Incoming‖ or ―Outgoing‖  
Action: ―Allow‖ or ―Deny‖  
Start Port: Use for a single port or a range of ports.  
End Port: Use for a single port or a range of ports.  
Network Address  
Subnet Mask  
Use Start Port, End Port, Network Address, and Subnet Mask to  
specify the ports and addresses for which the rule applies. You can  
specify a range of ports or a single port (by inputting the same value in  
both port fields). Similarly, the subnet mask can be used to define  
either a range of addresses (i.e. 255.255.255.0) or a single address  
(255.255.255.255).  
Example of an IP Filter Rule: Suppose you have opened a port in your firewall in  
order to run a server. Someone, Johnny, is abusing that opening, so you would like to  
restrict his access. Create a rule that will deny Johnny‘s IP address.  
Name: No more Johnny  
Direction: Incoming  
Action: Deny

6.4.3 DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone)  
A DMZ host is effectively not firewalled in the sense  
that any computer on the internet may attempt to  
remotely access network services at the DMZ IP  
address. Typical uses involve running a public Web  
server or sharing files.  
Input the IP Address of a single device in your network to create a DeMilitarized Zone for that device. To ensure that the  
IP address of the selected device remains consistent, go to the ―Reservations‖ section under Network Settings DHCP  
Server and reserve the IP address for the device.  
As with port forwarding, use caution when enabling the DMZ feature as it can threaten the security of your  
network. Only use DMZ as a last resort.  
6.4.4 Firewall Options  
Anti-Spoof: Anti-Spoof checks help protect against  
malicious users faking the source address in  
packets they transmit in order to either hide  
themselves or to impersonate someone else. Once  
the user has spoofed their address they can launch  
a network attack without revealing the true source of  
the attack or attempt to gain access to network services that are restricted to certain addresses.  
Packet Normalization: Normalizing packets helps secure the router in untrusted environments. It does so by "scrubbing"  
packets that are ambiguous or might represent a break-in attempt. Packet Normalization also helps insure reliable  
connectivity for some WAN devices such as WiMAX modems. Only disable this option if you are sure you do not need it.  
Static NAT Ports: If enabled the source port does not translate in TCP and UDP packets during NAT. Some NAT  
traversal protocols such as STUN(T) require that the source port stay the same when traversing the firewall.

router.  
The user can set up multiple networks on  
the IBR650, each with its own unique  
configuration and its own selection of  
interfaces. Each local network can be  
attached to either of the following types of  
interfaces:  
Ethernet  
VLAN  
For example, one network might be just an  
isolated network for guests, while another  
might be the main network with  
administrative access and a VLAN  
interface.

6.5.2 Local Network Editor  
The Local Network Editor contains the following tabs: IP Settings, Interfaces, Access Control, and DHCP Server.  
IP Settings:  
Name: This primarily helps to identify this network during  
other administration tasks.  
Hostname: [Default: cp (for CradlePoint)] The hostname  
is the DNS name associated with the router's local area  
network IP address.  
NOTE: You can access the router‘s administration pages by typing  
the hostname into your browser, so if you change ―cp‖ to another  
hostname, you can access the administration pages through the new  
hostname.  
IP Address: This is the address used by the router for  
local area network communication. Changes to this  
parameter may require a restart to computers on this  
network.  
Each network must have a distinct IP address. Most users  
will want an address from one of the following private IP ranges:  
10.0.0.1 - 10.255.255.1  
172.16.0.1 - 172.31.255.1  
192.168.0.1 - 192.168.255.1  
NOTE: The final number does not have to be 1, but it is a simple, logical convention for routers that leaves higher numbers free for other devices.  
Netmask: (Default: 255.255.255.0) The netmask controls how many IP addresses can be used in this network. The  
default value allows for 254 IP addresses, which is enough in most cases.  
Routing Mode: (Default: NAT) Each network can use a unique routing mode to connect to the internet and other local  
networks. NAT is desirable for most configurations. Select from the following options in the dropdown list:

NAT: Network Address Translation hides private IP addresses behind the router's IP address. This is the simplest  
and most common choice for users, because NAT does the translation work for you.  
Standard: NAT-less routing. If you select Standard, you must separately configure your IP addresses so that they  
will be publically accessible. Typically you will not select this option unless you have a specific reason to bypass  
NAT.  
IP Passthrough: IP Passthrough passes the IP address given by the modem WAN through the router. All Ethernet  
ports must be in LAN mode or Disabled mode, and Hotspot, VPN, and GRE must be disabled.  
Disabled: Disable this network.  
Interfaces:  
Select network interfaces to attach to this network. Choose  
from Ethernet ports and VLAN interfaces. Double-click on  
any of the interfaces shown on the left in the Available  
section to move them to the Selected section on the right  
(or highlight an interface and click the + button). To  
deselect an interface, double-click on an interface in the  
Selected section (or highlight the interface and click the –  
button).  
If you want more interface options, you must configure  
additional Ethernet port groups and VLAN interfaces  
separately. See the Local Network Interfaces section  
below (on this same administration page: Network  
Settings Local Networks).

DHCP Server:  
Changing settings for the DHCP server is optional. The default selections are almost always sufficient.  
DHCP Server: (Default: Enabled) When the DHCP server  
is enabled, users of your network will be able to  
automatically connect to the internet without any special  
configuration. It is recommended that you leave this  
enabled. Disabling the DHCP server is only  
recommended if you have another DHCP server on your  
network and it is configured properly.  
Range Start and Range End: These designate the range  
of values in the reserved pool of IP addresses for the  
DHCP server. Values within this range will be given to any  
DHCP enabled computers on your network. The default  
values are almost always sufficient (default: 72 to 200, as  
in 192.168.0.72 to 192.168.0.200).  
Example: The IBR650 uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1 for its  
primary network by default. A computer designated as a Web server  
has a static IP address of 192.168.0.3. Another computer is  
designated as an FTP server with a static IP address of 192.168.0.4. The starting IP address for the DHCP server needs to be 192.168.0.5 or  
higher.  
Lease Time: [Default: 720 minutes (12 hours)] The lease time specifies how long DHCP-enabled computers will wait  
before requesting a new DHCP lease. Smaller values are better suited to busy environments.

Ethernet Port Configuration  
Ethernet Port Configuration provides  
controls for your router‘s Ethernet ports.  
There are two ports: one set as LAN and  
one set as WAN. While default settings  
will be sufficient in most circumstances,  
you have the ability to control: Mode  
(WAN or LAN) and Link Speed.  
Additional controls for WAN ports are  
available in Internet  
Settings.  
Ethernet  
Mode: WAN or LAN.  
Internet (WAN) is used to connect  
to another network such as a hotel or office wired network. The WAN connection is used as a possible source of  
internet for the IBR650.  
Local Network (LAN) is for connecting a computer or similar device directly to the router with an Ethernet cable.  
Link Speed: Default setting is Auto. The Auto setting is preferred in most cases.

Ethernet Port Group Editor  
A Port Group represents a logical grouping of Ethernet  
ports. Any computers physically connected to ports in a  
group will be allowed to freely communicate with each  
other.  
Since the IBR650 has only 2 Ethernet ports, this feature  
will rarely be necessary. It is possible, however, to set both  
ports as LAN ports (or both ports as WAN ports) and then  
either separate them or group them together. (For  
example, you could use one for the primary network and  
one for a guest network, or you could use both for the  
primary network.)  
NOTE: When a port group uses the LAN mode you must separately  
ensure that this logical interface is attached to a Local IP Network in  
the top panel of this page.  
Port Group ID: The Group ID field provides a reference to  
this grouping of ports to be used in other parts of the router  
configuration. For example, this ID is referenced in the  
Local IP Networks configuration to attach this logical group of Ethernet ports with a network configuration. Use a simple  
short text phrase to describe a group, such as "main", "guestports", "backup_wan", etc.  
Select one or more ports to create a port group that you can subsequently attach to a network in the Local Network  
Editor. Double-click on any of the Ethernet ports shown on the left in the Available section to move them to the Selected  
section on the right (or highlight a port and click the + button). To deselect an Ethernet port, double-click on an interface in  
the Selected section (or highlight the port and click the button).

VLAN Interfaces  
A virtual local area network, or VLAN,  
functions as any other physical LAN, but it  
enables computers and other devices to  
be grouped together even if they are not  
physically attached to the same network  
switch.  
To enable a VLAN, select a VID (virtual LAN ID) and a group of Ethernet ports through which users can access the VLAN.  
Then go back up to the Local Network Editor to attach your new VLAN to a network. To use a VLAN, the VID must be  
shared with another router or similar device so that multiple physical networks have access to the one virtual network.  
Click Add to create a new VLAN interface.

VID: An integer value that is the Virtual LAN ID.  
Ethernet Group: Select the LAN ports with which you want  
to associate the VLAN ID from a dropdown list. Your  
Ethernet group must be created separately under Ethernet

6.6 Routing (Advanced Mode only)  
Add a new static route to the IP routing table or  
edit/remove an existing route.  
Static routes are unnecessary for most users.  
They are typically only used in networks with  
more than one layer, such as when there is a  
network within a network so that packet destinations are hidden behind an additional router. Adding a static route is a way  
of telling the router about an additional step that packets will need to take to reach their destination.  
Click Add to create a new static route.  
IP/Network Address: The IP address of the target  
network or host.  
Type: Select from a dropdown list to specify the type of the  
target:  
Network  
Host  
Netmask: The Netmask, along with the IP address,  
defines the network the computer belongs to and which  
other IP addresses the computer can see in the same  
LAN. An IP address of 192.168.0.1 along with a Netmask  
of 255.255.255.0 defines a network with 256 available IP addresses from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255.  
NOTE: 255.255.255.255 is used to signify only the host that was entered in the IP/Network Address field.  
Gateway: Specifies the next hop to be taken if this route is used. A gateway of 0.0.0.0 implies there is no next hop, and  
the IP address matched is directly connected to the router on the interface specified: LAN or WAN.

6.7 WiPipe QoS (Advanced Mode only)  
When WiPipe QoS (Quality of Service/Traffic  
Shaping) is enabled, the router will control the  
flow of internet traffic according to the user-  
defined rules. In other words, Traffic Shaping  
improves performance by allowing the user to  
prioritize applications.  
Enable WiPipe QoS: Click on this box to open  
options for controlling internet traffic. You can  
control Uplink Speed values or define your own  
Traffic Shaping rules. When WiPipe QoS is  
enabled, the router restricts the flow of outbound  
traffic so as not to exceed the WAN uplink  
bandwidth.  
Default Uplink Speed: By default, the Uplink  
Speed values are set as fast as possible. Click  
to deselect default values if you want to restrict  
the maximum uplink speed for the internet  
source(s) you are using (4G Modem, Ethernet,  
and/or 3G Modem).  
You might do this to reduce overall bandwidth  
use for cost reasons or to prioritize available  
bandwidth for download. It is recommended that you experiment with different values for your particular internet  
connection to yield the best results.  
NOTE: Uplink speed is the speed at which data can be transferred to your ISP. You can test your uplink speed with a service such as

6.7.1 Add Traffic Shaping Rule  
A Traffic Shaping Rule identifies a specific message flow and assigns a priority to that flow. For most applications,  
automatic classification will be adequate, and specific Traffic Shaping Rules will not be required.  
Traffic Shaping supports overlap between rules, where more than one rule can match for a specific message flow. If more  
than one rule matches, the rule with the highest priority will be used.  
Name. Create a name for the rule that is meaningful to  
you.  
Protocol. The protocol used by the messages: TCP,  
UDP, or ICMP. Select ―Any‖ if your rule does not control a  
specific type of message that uses a specific protocol.  
Priority. The priority of the message flow is entered here-  
-15 receives the highest priority (most urgent) and 0  
receives the lowest priority (least urgent).  
Enable. Specifies whether the entry will be active or  
inactive.  
Click Next to continue to the next page.  
Example: You sometimes work from home, and you share bandwidth with your children. You can set a rule to prioritize your computer and a rule  
to reduce priority for their computer. To prioritize your computer, you might use the following settings:  
Name: My Computer  
Protocol: Any (Your computer will use all three protocols; there‘s no reason to restrict this rule to just one protocol)  
Priority: 15  
To lower the priority of your children‘s computer, you might use these settings:  
Name: Kids‘ Computer  
Protocol: Any  
Priority: 2

7.1 Connection Manager  
The router can establish an uplink via the Ethernet WAN port or the embedded modem. If the primary WAN connection  
fails the router will automatically attempt to bring up a new link on another device. This feature is called failover. If Load  
Balance is enabled, multiple WAN devices may be plugged in and each may establish a link.  
7.1.1 WAN Interfaces  
This is a list of the available interfaces used  
to access the internet. You can enable, stop,  
or start devices from this section. By using  
the priority arrows (the arrows in the red  
boxes; these show if you have more than  
one available interface), you can set the interface the router uses by default and the order that it allows failover. To  
configure a specific interface, use the settings page for that type of interface (e.g. Ethernet Settings page for wired  
connections).  
In the example shown, Ethernet is set as the primary internet source, while the embedded modem is a backup. The  
Ethernet is ―Connected‖ while the modem is ―Idle.‖  
Load Balance: If this is enabled, the router will use multiple WAN interfaces to increase the data transfer throughput by  
using any connected WAN interface consecutively. Selecting Load Balance will automatically start the WAN interface and  
add it to the pool of WAN interfaces to use for data transfer. Turning off Load Balance for an active WAN interface may  
require the user to restart any current browsing session.

7.1.2 Failure Check (Advanced Mode Only)  
If this is enabled, the router will check that the  
highest priority active WAN interface can get to the  
internet even if the WAN connection is not actively  
being used. If the interface goes down, the router  
will switch to the next highest priority interface  
available. If this is not selected, the router will still  
failover to the next highest priority interface but  
only after the user has attempted to get out to the  
internet and failed.  
Idle Check Interval: The amount of time between each check. (Default: 30 seconds. Range: 10-3600 seconds.)  
ICMP Ping Check and Ping IP Address: Enable and configure an IP address that the router will use to check if the WAN  
connection is available. For best results, select an established public IP address.  
For example, you might ping Google Public DNS at 8.8.8.8 or Level 3 Communications at 4.2.2.2.

7.1.3 Failback Configuration (Advanced Mode Only)  
This is used to configure failback, which is the  
ability to go back to a higher priority WAN  
interface if it regains connection to its network.  
Usage: Fail back based on the amount of data  
passed over time. This is a good setting for when  
you have a dual-mode EVDO/WiMAX modem  
and you are going in and out of WiMAX  
coverage. If the router has failed over to EVDO it  
will wait until you have low data usage before  
bringing down the EVDO connection to check if a  
WiMAX connection can be made.  
High (Rate: 80 KB/s. Time Period: 30  
seconds.)  
Normal (Rate: 20 KB/s. Time Period: 90 seconds.)  
Low (Rate: 10 KB/s. Time Period: 240 seconds.)  
Custom (Rate range: 1-100 KB/s. Time Period range: 10-300 seconds.)  
Time: Fail back only after a set period of time. (Default: 90 seconds. Range: 10-300 seconds.) This is a good setting if  
you have a primary wired WAN connection and only use a modem for failover when your wired connection goes down.  
This ensures that the higher priority interface has remained online for a set period of time before it becomes active (in  
case the connection is dropping in and out, for example).  
Disabled: Deactivate failback mode.  
Immediate Mode: Fail back immediately whenever a higher priority interface is plugged in or when there is a priority  
change. Immediate failback returns you to the use of your preferred internet source more quickly which may have  
advantages such as reducing the cost of a failover data plan, but it may cause more interruptions in your network than  
Usage or Time modes.

7.2 Data Usage (Advanced Mode Only)  
Data Usage Management & Alerts allows you to create and manage rules that help control the data usage of a modem.  
If you have a limited data plan or a price increase on your plan after a certain amount of usage, a Data Usage Rule can  
help you track these amounts. You can set a rule to shut down use of a modem and/or send a message when you reach a  
data usage amount you set.  
Enable Data Usage: Enabled/Disabled. (Default:  
Disabled.)  
When you select Enabled, you will see the Data Usage  
Agreement shown to the right. The purpose of this  
agreement is to ensure that you understand that the data  
numbers for the IBR650 may not perfectly match those of  
your carrier: CradlePoint cannot be held responsible. You  
must accept the agreement by clicking Yes in order to  
begin creating data usage rules.  
Warning: You should set your data limits lower than your  
Data Allowance and regularly compare the numbers  
provided by the router with the numbers from your carrier.

7.3 Ethernet Manager  
The Ethernet Manager provides  
controls for your router‘s Ethernet  
WAN ports. By default, only one  
port is set as a WAN port, but the  
other port can be reconfigured as  
a WAN port in Network Settings Local Networks.  
While default settings for each WAN Ethernet port will be sufficient in most circumstances, you have the ability to control:  
Connect Method: DHCP (Automatic), Static  
(Manual), or PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol  
over Ethernet).  
MAC Address: You have the ability to change  
the MAC address, but typically this is  
unnecessary. You can match this address with  
your device‘s address by clicking: ―Clone Your  
PC’s MAC Address‖.  
7.3.1 Connect Method  
Your router‘s Ethernet ports are automatically configured for DHCP connection. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration  
Protocol) automatically assigns dynamic IP addresses to devices in your networks. This is preferable in most  
circumstances.  
If you want to use a Static (Manual) or PPPoE connection instead, you will need to fill out additional information.

Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels can be used to create a connection between two private networks. The  
IBR650 is enabled for either GRE or VPN tunnels. GRE tunnels are simpler to configure and more flexible for different  
kinds of packet exchanges, but VPN tunnels are much more secure.  
In order to set up a tunnel you must know the following:  
Local Network and Remote Network addresses for the Glue Network,‖ the network that is created by the  
administrator that serves as the ―glue‖ between the networks of the tunnel. Each address must be a different IP  
address from the same private network, and these addresses together form the endpoints of the tunnel.  
Remote Gateway, the public facing WAN IP address that the local gateway is going to connect to.  
Optionally, you might also want to enable the tunnel Keep Alive feature to monitor the status of a tunnel and more  
accurately determine if the tunnel is alive or not.  
Click Add to configure a new GRE tunnel.

Page 1: General  
Tunnel Name: Choose a name that is meaningful to you.  
Local Network: This is the local side of the ―Glue  
Network,‖ a network created by the administrator to form  
the tunnel. The user creates the IP address inputted  
here. It must be different from the IP addresses of the  
networks it is gluing together.  
Choose any private IP address from the following three  
ranges that doesn‘t match either network:  
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255  
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255  
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255  
Remote Network: This is the remote side of the ―Glue  
Network.‖ Again, the user must create an IP address that  
is distinct from the IP addresses of the networks that are  
being glued together.  
The Remote Network and Local Network values will be  
flipped when inputted for the other side of the tunnel  
configuration.  
Subnet Mask: This is the subnet mask for the Glue  
Network. The Local and Remote Network addresses  
must fit with this mask. 255.255.255.0 is a logical choice  
for most users.  
Remote Gateway: This is the public facing, WAN-side IP address of the network that the local gateway is going to  
connect to.  
Tunnel Enabled: Select to activate the tunnel.

Keep Alive: This feature monitors the status of a tunnel. This will more accurately determine if the tunnel is alive or not.  
Choose the Rate in seconds for each check (Default: 10 seconds. Range: 2 3600 seconds) and the number of Retry  
attempts (Default: 3. Range: 1 255).  
Page 2: Routes  
Adding routes allows you to configure what types of  
network traffic from the local host or hosts will be allowed  
through the tunnel.  
Click Add Route to configure a new route. You will need  
to input the following information, defined by the remote  
network:  
Network Address  
Netmask: (Default: 255.255.255.0)  
You can set the tunnel to connect to a range of IP  
addresses or to a single IP address. For example, you  
could input 192.168.0.0 and 255.255.255.0 to connect  
your tunnel to all the addresses of the remote network in  
the 192.168.0.x range. Alternatively, you could select a  
single address by inputting that address along with a  
Netmask of 255.255.255.255.  
Click Save to record each new route.  
When you have finished adding routes, click Finish to save your GRE tunnel configuration.

7.5 Load Balance (Advanced Mode only)  
When enabled in Connection Manager (Internet Connection Manager), the router will use multiple WAN interfaces  
to increase the data transfer throughput by using any connected WAN interface consecutively. Connections are load  
balanced between interfaces based on a dynamic measurement of bandwidth available.  
Leave ―Use default rates‖ selected for automatically defined bandwidth values for Load Balance.  
The default minimum rate can be changed to reflect the minimum bandwidth used during dynamic measurement. The  
dynamic measurement will assume that the interface has at least the specified minimum bandwidth available. You have  
the ability to set these minimum rates for:  
4G Modem  
3G Modem  
Range: 100-50000 Kbs.

7.6 Modem Settings  
This section allows you to change the  
settings for your embedded modem.  
7.6.1 Update/Activate a Modem  
The embedded modem can be  
activated (or reactivated/upgraded).  
Select the checkbox next to the  
CradlePoint device and click ―Update /  
Activate‖.  
Modem Activation / Update: Activate, Reactivate, or Upgrade Configuration. Click Activate to start the process.  
If the modem is connected when you start an operation  
the router will automatically disconnect it. The router may  
start another device as a failover measure. When the  
operation is done the modem will go back to an idle state,  
at which point the router may restart it depending on  
failover and failback settings.  
NOTE: Only one operation is supported at a time. If you try to start  
the same operation on the same modem twice the UI will not report  
failure and the request will finish normally when the original request is  
done. However if you try to start a different operation or use a  
different modem, this second request will fail without interfering with  
the pending operation.  
Process Timeout: If the process fails an error message  
will display.  
Activation has a 3-minute timeout.

7.6.2 Modem Connection Settings (Advanced Mode Only)  
This section changes settings that affect how  
modems attempt to connect to the service  
provider's network.  
Connection Mode: Typically modem connections  
are not set to remain on. The router allows you to  
set the type of reconnection mode.  
Always On: A connection to the internet is  
continuously maintained.  
On Demand: A connection to the internet is made as needed.  
Manual: The administrator has to navigate to the Connection Manager (Internet Connection Manager) page  
and use the control buttons shown in the WAN Interfaces table.  
Maximum Idle Time: The interval at which the machine can be idle before the modem connection is disconnected. This  
setting is only valid for the "On Demand" and "Manual" connection modes.  
Aggressive Reset: When Aggressive Reset is enabled the system will attempt to maintain a good modem connection. If  
the internet has been unreachable for a period of time a reset of the modem will occur in attempt to re-establish the  
connection.

7.7 VPN Tunnels (Advanced Mode only)  
VPN (virtual private network) tunnels are  
used to establish a secure connection to a  
remote network over a public network. For  
example, VPN tunnels can be used across  
the internet by an individual to connect to  
an office network while traveling or by two  
office networks to function as one network.  
The two networks set up a secure  
connection across the (normally) unsecure  
internet by assigning VPN encryption protocols.  
The IBR650 uses IPsec (Internet Protocol security) to authenticate and encrypt packets exchanged across the tunnel. To  
set up a VPN tunnel with the IBR650 on one end, there must be another device (usually a router) that also supports IPsec  
on the other end.  
IKE (Internet Key Exchange) is the security protocol in IPsec. IKE has two phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2. The IBR650  
has several different security protocol options for each phase, but the default selections will be sufficient for most users.  
The VPN tunnel status page allows you to view the state of the VPN tunnels. If a tunnel fails to connect to the remote site,  
check the System Logs for more information. You may double click on a cell to directly edit that information.  
Click Add to configure a new VPN tunnel.

7.7.1 Page 1: General  
Tunnel Name: Choose a name meaningful to you.  
Local Identity: This can be left blank for most users. If left blank  
it will default to the IP address of the WAN connection. Currently  
we only support identifiers in the form of an IP address, a user  
fully qualified domain name ([email protected]) or just a  
fully qualified domain name (www.mydomain.com). If the  
remote side of the tunnel is configured to expect an identifier,  
then both must match in order for the negotiation to succeed.  
Remote Identity: This can be left blank for most users. If left  
blank it will default to the IP address of the WAN connection.  
Currently we only support identifiers in the form of an IP  
address, a user fully qualified domain name  
([email protected]) or just a fully qualified domain name  
(www.mydomain.com). If no identifier is defined then no  
verification of the remote peer's identification will be done.  
Pre-shared Key: Create a password or key. The routers on both  
sides of the tunnel must use this same key.  
Mode: Tunnel or Transport. Tunnel Mode is used for  
protecting traffic between different networks, when traffic must  
pass through an intermediate, untrusted network. Transport  
Mode is used for end-to-end communications (for example, for  
communications between a client and a server).  
Initiator Mode: Always On/Bootor On Demand.‖ ―Always On/Bootis used if you want the tunnel to initiate the  
tunnel connection whenever the WAN becomes available. On Demand is used if you want the tunnel to initiate a  
connection if and only if there is data traffic bound for the remote side of the tunnel.

MBR1200 Quick Connect: VPN tunnels in the IBR650 have more choices than they do in the MBR1200, so it is more  
complex to configure. Check this box to simplify setup by streamlining your options.  
7.7.2 Page 2: Networks  
Local Network: The Network IP address and the Subnet Mask  
define what local devices have access to or can be accessed  
from the VPN tunnel. The IBR650 will automatically fill in the  
values for your network, but you can change the values to limit  
the tunnel to only some of the devices in your network.  
NOTE: The local network IP address must be different from the remote  
network IP address.  
Remote Network: Enter the remote Gateway's IP address or  
fully qualified domain name (my.domain.com). It is  
recommended you use a dynamic DNS host name instead of the  
static IP address. By using the dynamic DNS host name updates  
of the remote WAN IP are compensated for while connecting to  
a VPN tunnel.  
Enter the Network IP address with the Subnet Mask to define  
the remote network subnet that the local devices will have  
access to.  
NOTE: The remote network IP address must be different from the local  
network IP address.

7.7.3 Page 3: IKE Phase 1  
IKE security has two phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2. You have the ability to distinctly configure each phase, but the default  
settings will be sufficient for most users.  
To set up a tunnel with a remote site, you need to match your tunnel's IKE negotiation parameters with the remote site. By  
selecting several encryption, hash, and DH group options, you  
improve your chances for a successful tunnel negotiation. For  
greatest compatibility, select all options; for greatest security,  
select only the most secure options that your devices support.  
Exchange Mode: The IKE protocol has 2 modes of negotiating  
phase 1 - Main (also called Identity Protection) and Aggressive.  
In Main mode, IKE separates the key information from  
the identities, allowing for the identities of peers to be  
secure at the expense of extra packet exchanges.  
In Aggressive mode, IKE tries to combine as much  
information into fewer packets while maintaining security.  
Aggressive mode is slightly faster but less secure.  
Because it has better security, Main mode is recommended for  
most users.  
Key Lifetime: The lifetime of the generated keys of Phase 1 of  
the IPsec negotiation from IKE. After the time has expired, IKE  
will renegotiate a new set of Phase 1 keys.  
Encryption, Hash, and DH Groups: Each IKE exchange uses  
one encryption algorithm, one hash function, and one DH group  
to make a secure exchange.

Encryption: Used to encrypt messages sent and received by IPsec.  
o AES 128  
o AES 256  
o Blowfish  
o CAST  
o DES  
o 3DES  
Hash: Used to compare, authenticate, and validate that data across the VPN arrives in its intended form and to  
derive keys used by IPsec.  
o MD5  
o SHA1  
o SHA2 256  
o SHA2 384  
o SHA2 512  
DH Groups: The DH (Diffie-Hellman) Group is a property of IKE and is used to determine the length of prime  
numbers associated with key generation. The strength of the key generated is partially determined by the strength  
of the DH Group. Group 5, for instance, has greater strength than Group 2.  
o DH group 1: 768-bit key.  
o DH group 2: 1024-bit key.  
o DH group 5: 1536-bit key.  
In Phase 1, only one DH group can be selected while using Aggressive exchange mode.  
By default, all the algorithms (encryption, hash, and DH groups) supported by the IBR650 are checked, which means they  
are allowed for any given exchange. Deselect these options to limit which algorithms will be accepted. Be sure to check  
that the router (or similar device) at the other end of the tunnel has matching algorithms.  
The algorithms are listed in order by priority. You can reorder this priority list by clicking and dragging algorithms up or  
down. Any selected algorithm may be used for IKE exchange, but the algorithms on the top of the list are more likely to be  
used more often.

Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS): Enabling this feature will  
require IKE to generate a new set of keys in Phase 2 rather than  
using the same key generated in Phase 1.  
Additionally, the new keys generated in Phase 2 (with this option  
enabled) are exchanged in an encrypted session. Enabling this  
feature affords the policy greater security.  
Key Lifetime: The lifetime of the generated keys of Phase 2 of  
the IPsec negotiation from IKE. After the time has expired, IKE  
will renegotiate a new set of Phase 2 keys.  
Phase 2 has the same selection of Encryption, Hash, and DH  
Groups as Phase 1, but you are restricted to only one DH  
Group. Phase 2 and Phase 1 selections do not have to match.

policy is in use.  
Connection Idle Time allows you to configure how long the  
router will allow an IPsec session to be idle before beginning to  
send Dead Peer Detection (DPD) packets to the peer machine.  
Request Frequency allows you to adjust the delay between  
these DPD packets to send as quickly as every 2 seconds up to  
30 seconds apart.  
Additionally, you can specify how many Maximum Requests to  
send at the selected time interval before the tunnel is considered  
dead.

7.7.8 VPN with NAT-T  
If one side of a planned VPN tunnel is behind a NAT (network address translation) firewall, the setup of your tunnel  
requires the following specifications:  
1. Each side of the tunnel must use both a Local Identity and a Remote Identity. These must match the identities on  
the other side: The Local Identity must match the Remote Identity on the other side of the tunnel, and vice versa. In  
this case, these identities can each be a simple word.  
2. The Tunnel Name for the side of the tunnel that is not behind the NAT firewall must be ―anonymous‖.  
3. The VPN tunnel must be initiated from the side that is behind the NAT firewall.

8.1.1 Web Login  
This password is the administration password. It allows a  
user to change router settings. This password can also be  
changed through the First Time Setup Wizard. The default  
password is found on the bottom of the router.  
8.1.2 Network Time Protocol  
Enabling NTP will tell the router to get its system time from  
a remote server on the internet. If you do not enable NTP  
then the router time will be based on when the router  
firmware was built, which is guaranteed to be wrong.  
Whenever the internet connection is re-established and  
once a week thereafter the router will ask the server for the current time so it can correct itself.  
You then have the option of selecting an NTP server and adjusting the NTP server port. Any of the given NTP servers will  
be sufficient unless, for example, you need to synchronize your router‘s time with other devices in a network.

will just get the usual browser timeout. In the normal case when the router is connected to the internet you don't see them  
at all.  
This allows a user to disable bounce pages for cases where the router WAN link is down.  
8.1.5 UPnP  
Universal Plug and Play is a set of networking  
protocols standardized by the UPnP Forum. UPnP  
enables clients to determine network configuration  
and configure the network to allow traffic through the firewall without direct user interaction. UPnP can simplify the use of  
special applications or devices that require network configuration, but can also allow unprivileged users to manipulate  
network configuration.
