QoS
The GWN7000 offers the possibility to enable and configure QoS on WAN interfaces, this will help to
manage in more depth the network traffic to define priority and classify different services and protocols in
an efficient manner.
Also, the GWN provides the capabilities to configure advanced QoS features such as Active Congestion
Control (ACC) in order to avoid bottleneck on the network, especially when using VoIP.
Figure 16: QoS
To activate QoS, check “Enable QoS” option. Three tabs are available for configuration:
• General: Download and upload bandwidth speeds settings on each WAN interface as well as setting
the smart queue parameters which will allow to select the queuing mode on each wan interface. The
smart queue is an integrated network system that performs better per-packet/per flow network
scheduling, reduces the buffer bloat and keeps latency at acceptable levels. The users can from this
menu select which QoS mode to use on each WAN interface (either ACC, SQM or Legacy QoS).
• Legacy QoS: Legacy QoS allows creating Traffic Classes to prioritize traffic for specific resources on
the network by controlling transmission/upload rate. Note that different classes can be created and
assigned as Traffic filters by respecting following conditions:
✓ The total of Upstream bandwidth values of each created class should not exceed the
upstream bandwidth value configured in General.
✓ The remaining bandwidth will be lent to the next priority level of class.
✓ All filter options are summed together.
✓ While Upstream QoS is dealing with traffic transmission, Policer is controlling the incoming
traffic. Thus, allowing to create rules to specific targets to set priority and received traffic rate,
giving the GWN the ability to drop the exceeding traffic when reaching the max rate.

• Policy Manager: On this menu the user can configure multiple QoS policies in order to apply them on
the WAN interface when selecting QoS type as ACC (Adaptive Congestion Control), this feature
combines the power of the original legacy class based QoS, while adding true ingress shaping, and
reducing the configuration difficulty. Traditional QoS systems rely on the actual bandwidth provided by
the ISP to remain constant, they also require you to set the link rate below what the ISP provisions
your link, which leaves the link underutilized. The ACC QoS solves this problem. The ACC QoS also
features the anti-buffer bloat and flow fairness of the Smart Queue QoS. Beyond that, the new QoS
allows for defining classes so that flows that are latency sensitive and/or need a minimum amount of
bandwidth can be placed int, this is extremely useful for VoIP traffic.
Refer to the following tables for each tab option:

Policy Routing
Feature Overview
The Policy-based Routing feature allows a network administrator to make advanced routing decisions for
traffic passing through the router. This feature allows for high granularity control over policies that dictate
what WAN port, and even VPN tunnel, traffic should use. Traffic controlled this way can be balanced
across multiple WANs or VPNs or to have complex failover designs.
Locally generated traffic can be globally routed via the policy selected under the menu “Router → WAN →
Global Settings” in order to dictate to the router either to use failover or load-balancing for locally
generated packets.
Creating/Configuring Routing Policies
The basic flow for traffic handled by policy-based routing in GWN7000 is as follows:
• Traffic matched with a specific iptables rule is marked to be used with a Policy.
• The policy contains a list of members that can be used by the policy.
• These members point to a specific interface and define a metric or weight assigned to them which
can be used for determining load balancing and failover behavior.
• The interface can be any outgoing interface (WAN or VPN) and must be assigned a metric.
• The router then handles the routing of matched traffic to the appropriate routing tables for each
member interface for that Policy.
In order to properly implement this feature, the old per-zone and per-wan routing table design has been
removed and reworked to only use the main table. In addition, the Inter-group Traffic Forwarding is being
removed in favor of automatically creating more configurable Firewall Forwarding rules.
In order to configure a new routing policy, first users need to create members under the menu Routing →
Policy Routing → Members.
Click on button to create a new member, and configure its related metric and weight:
P a g e | 50
GWN7000 User Manual
Version 1.0.9.6
Figure 19: Create a New Member
Table 20: Create Policy Members
Name
Enter the Name for the member.
Interface
Select the interface to which the member points.
Metric
Enter the value of the metric related to the member (default is 1).
Weight
Enter the weight that will be attributed to the member, in case load balancing is
used, this will indicate how much traffic will be routed via this member through the
specified interface. Default value is 1.
Note: By default, GWN7000 router will generate automatically members for each created/configured WAN
interface and VPN client tunnel interface.
After this, users need to create policies which lists the members that will be used by each policy from the
menu Routing → Policy Routing → Policy.
Click on button in order to create a new routing policy then choose the members that would
be listed (included) on the policy.
P a g e | 51
GWN7000 User Manual
Version 1.0.9.6
Figure 20: Create New Routing Policy
Give a name to the policy, then click on to add a new member to the list of members included on the
policy.
If two members have the same metric, then the policy will do load balancing through the interfaces while
taking into account the configured weight on each member to determine how much traffic can be sent
through each interface. Otherwise the member with lower metric will have priority.
Click on Save and Apply changes to save the policy and it will be displayed along the other policies on the
routers.
Note: when configuring a new LAN subnet (VLAN) or VPN client, the router will automatically generate a
routing policy in order to allow traffic from the LAN or VPN network to/via the select wan interface. Along
the automatically created routing policy, the GWN7000 router will create the corresponding firewall rule
which will allow for traffic to pass from the LAN subnet to the WAN ports while respecting the created policy,
users can check these rules under the menu “Firewall → Traffic Rules → Forward”.
Using Routing Policies
In order to illustrate how policy-based routing can be used, let’s imagine an SMB who has a GWN7000
router running their network with two WAN (WAN1 and WAN2) ports for normal data traffic and a third
WAN port (NET port used as wan) for VoIP service since this link has QoS support. The administrator
wants to send normal data traffic through WAN 1 and WAN 2 in a load balanced way and the VoIP traffic
via WAN 3 traffic.
P a g e | 52
GWN7000 User Manual
Version 1.0.9.6
We consider that the administrator has already configured the three wan ports and their IP and running
which can be under the “Router → Status” page.
As explained above, the GWN7000 router will automatically generate members for the three wan ports
under “Routing → Policy Routing → Members”
Figure 21: Members list
Users can set different weights for WAN1 and WAN2 in order to set how the router will distribute the data
traffic over the two WAN ports.
Next the we will see that the router will have already created automatically the load balancing policy and
WAN3 only auto policy under Policy tab as shown on the following figure.
Figure 22: Policies List
The next step would be to assign the routing policy in order to send normal data traffic in a load-balanced
way over wan1 and wan2 and send the traffic for VoIP over wan3.
For the network group LAN data traffic, users need to navigate to Router → LAN and edit the created
network group then assign load balance routing policy and select wan1 and wan2 port as destinations.

delete it from GWN.Cloud paired Access Points if the unit is paired to GWN.Cloud.
Client Bridge
The Client Bridge feature allows an access point to be configured as a client for bridging wired only clients
wirelessly to the network. When an access point is configured in this way, it will share the WiFi connection
to the LAN ports transparently. This is not to be confused with a mesh setup. The client will not accept
wireless clients in this mode.

below the configured threshold in Minimum RSSI (dBm).
Minimum RSSI (dBm)
Enter the minimum RSSI value in dBm. If the signal value is lower than
the configured minimum value, the client will be disconnected.
The input range is from “-94” or “-1”.
Beacon Interval
Configures interval between beacon transmissions/broadcasts.
The Beacon signals help to keep the network synchronized and provide
main information about the network such as SSID, Timestamp…
• Using High Beacon Interval: AP will be sending beacon
broadcast less frequently.
P a g e | 64
GWN7000 User Manual
Version 1.0.9.6
This will help to get better throughput, thus better
speed/performance. It also helps to save WiFi clients energy
consumption.
• Using Low Beacon Interval: AP will be sending beacon
broadcast more frequently. This can help in environments with
weak signal areas; sending more frequently beacons will
increase chances to be received by WiFi clients with weak signal.
Notes:
1. When AP enables several SSIDs with different interval values, the
max value will take effect.
2. When AP enables less than 3 SSIDs, the interval value which will
be effective are the values from 40 to 500.
3. When AP enables more than 2 but less than 9 SSIDs, the interval
value which will be effective are the values from 100 to 500.
4. When AP enables more than 8 SSIDs, the interval value which will
be effective are the values from 200 to 500.
5. Mesh feature will take up a share when it is enabled.
Default value is 100ms. Valid range: 40 – 500 ms.
DTIM Period
Configures the frequency of DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message)
transmission per each beacon broadcast. Clients will check the AP for
buffered data at every configured DTIM Period. You may set a high value
for power saving consideration.
Default value is 1, meaning that AP will have DTIM broadcast every
beacon. If set to 10, AP will have DTIM broadcast every 10 beacons.
Valid range: 1 – 10.
Multicast to Unicast
Once selected, AP will convert multicast streams into unicast streams
over the wireless link. Which helps to enhance the quality and reliability of
video/audio stream and preserve the bandwidth available to the
non-video/audio clients.
Enable Voice Enterprise
Check to enable/disable Voice Enterprise. The roaming time will be
reduced once enable voice enterprise.
• The 802.11k standard helps clients to speed up the search for
nearby APs that are available as roaming targets by creating an
optimized list of channels.
P a g e | 65

When the signal strength of the current AP weakens, your device
will scan for target APs from this list.
• When your client device roams from one AP to another on the
same network, 802.11r uses a feature called Fast Basic Service
Set Transition (FT) to authenticate more quickly. FT works with
both pre-shared key (PSK) and 802.1X authentication methods.
• 802.11v allows client devices to exchange information about the
network topology, including information about the RF
environment, making each client network aware, facilitating
overall improvement of the wireless network.

Mesh Network
In Mesh Network, wireless connection is established between multiple Aps, which is used to passthrough
data traffic rather than client association. Each AP will evaluate the performance of wireless channel based
on several factors and choose one or multiple appropriate APs to setup connection.
In a mesh network, access points are categorized to two types:
• CAP (Central Access Point): this is an access point that has an uplink connection to the wired
network.
• RE (Range Extender): This is an access point that participate on the mesh network topology and has
a wireless uplink connection to the central network.
In order to deploy mesh access points (RE), users/installers can follow below steps:
1. Make sure to have the master and CAP access points already deployed (sometimes the CAP
access points can be the master controller of the network).
2. Next, we need to pair the RE access points to the master. This can be done in two ways:
A. Connect all REs to the same wired LAN as the master then perform the normal process of
discovery/pairing process, and after successfully pairing the APs they can be deployed on the
field.
B. REs can also be discovered wirelessly when powered via PSU or PoE Injector, and admin can
configure them after discovery. This requires that the REs must be within the range of the
Master or CAP Slave’s signals coverage.
Note: If there are other GWN APs broadcasting in the same field with different subnet, RE may
be wirelessly connected to those networks and cannot be discovered and paired by your
Master. Therefore, it is recommended to use the first method of wired pairing and then deploy
those REs.
3. After that all slave access points have been deployed and paired to the master, you can directly
manage them to operate the mesh network. Mesh service configuration is the same as transitional
GWN WLAN.
4. Log into the master page, and under Access Points page you can see the information, for
example the AP in the “Online Wireless” state is the RE (Range Extender) with a wireless uplink
to the CAP. The APs showing “Online” state are either a wired master or CAP.

Upgrading Access Points
Single Access Point upgrade
If you want to upgrade a single access point, users need to select the AP then simply click on the
button to launch the upgrade process, the AP will use the same parameters configured for
the router under the menu System Settings → Maintenance → Upgrade.
Otherwise, is users want to upgrade many devices at the same time, make sure to select all desired
access points, then press the button, the router will give the option to choose between
upgrading all access points at once which will result in all the devices downloading the firmware at the
same time and consuming bandwidth or making sequential upgrade which is the recommended option
described below.
Sequential Upgrade
If you choose multiple slave devices to upgrade their firmware, two options are available: “All-at-Once” and
“Sequential”. “All-at-Once” will use the default method, all checked slaves will upgrade their firmware at the
same time, while using “Sequential” upgrade method, the slaves will upgrade their firmware one by one in
order to:
• Avoid entire Wi-Fi service interruption by full system firmware upgrade.

• SSL: Authentication is made using certificates only (no
user/pass authentication). Each user has a unique client
configuration that includes their personal certificate and key.
This is useful if clients should not be prompted to enter a
username and password, but it is less secure as it relies only
on something the user has (TLS key and certificate).
• User Auth: Authentication is made using only CA, user and
password, no certificates. Useful if the clients should not have
individual certificates.
Less secure as it relies on a shared TLS key plus only
something the user knows (Username/password).
• SSL + User Auth: Requires both certificate and username /
password. Each user has a unique client configuration that
includes their personal certificate and key.
Most secure as there are multiple factors of authentication
(TLS Key and Certificate that the user has, and the

IPSec VPN Tunnel
Overview
Internet Security protocol- IPsec is mainly used to authenticate and encrypt packets of data sent over the
network layer. In order to accomplish this, they use two security protocols - ESP (Encapsulation Security
Payload) and AH (Authentication Header), the former provides both authentication as well as encryption
whereas the latter provides only authentication for the data packets. Since both authentication and
encryption are equally desirable, most of the implementations use ESP.
IPsec supports two different encryption modes, they are Tunnel (default) and the Transport mode. Tunnel
mode is used to encrypt both payload as well as the header of an IP packet, which is considered to be
more secure. Transport mode is used to encrypt only the payload of an IP packet, which is generally used
in gateway or host implementations.
IPsec also involves IKE (Internet Key Exchange) protocol which is used to setup the Security Associations
(SA). A Security Association establishes a set of shared security parameters between two network entities
to provide a secure network layer communication. These security parameters may include: the
cryptographic algorithm and mode, traffic encryption key and parameters for the network data to be sent
over the connection. Currently there are two IKE versions available – IKEv1 and IKEv2. IKE works in two
phases:
- Phase 1: ISAKMP operations will be performed after a secure channel is established between two
network entities.
- Phase 2: Security Associations will be negotiated between two network entities.
IKE operates in three modes for exchanging of keying information and establishing security associations –
Main, Aggressive and Quick mode.
- Main mode: is used to establish the phase 1 during the key exchange. It uses three two-way
exchanges between the initiator and the receiver. In the first exchange, algorithms and hashes are
exchanged. In the second exchange, shared keys are generated using Diffie-Hellman exchange.
In the last exchange, verification of each other’s identities takes place.
- Aggressive mode: provides the same service as the main mode, but it uses two exchanges
instead of three. It does not provide identity protection, which makes it vulnerable to hackers. Main
mode is more secure than this.
- Quick mode: After establishing a secure channel using either main mode or aggressive mode,
quick mode can be used to negotiate general IPsec security services and to generate newly keyed
material. They are always encrypted under the secure channel and uses the hash payload that is
used to authenticate the rest of the packet.

In order to build an IPSec secure tunnel between two devices located on different places on the Internet,
we can use the sample scenario below:
Branch office router needs to connect to Headquarters office via an IPSec tunnel, on each side we have a
GWN7000 router. Users can configure the two devices as following:
The branch office router runs a LAN subnet 192.168.1.0/24 and the HQ router runs a LAN subnet
192.168.3.0, the public IP of the branch office router is 1.1.1.1 and the IP of the HQ router is 2.2.2.2.

GWN7000 offers the possibility to allow traffic between different groups and interfaces.
Users can select to edit a source group and add to it other network groups and WAN interfaces to allow
inter-group traffic between the selected members.
This will either use firewall rules or policy-based routing rules, if the action select is ACCEPT, DROP or
REJECT then the firewall rule will apply, otherwise if users want to trigger the policy-based routing, then
the action should be set to MATCH in order to match the traffic and apply the routing policy.

this traffic can be allowed using the Authentication rules which are explained below.
Figure 76: Authentication rules
Pre-Authentication Rules
Using this option, users can set rules to match traffic that will be allowed for connected Wi-Fi users before
authentication process. This can be needed for example to setup Facebook authentication where some
traffic should be allowed to Facebook server(s) to process the user’s authentication. Or simply to be used
to allow some type of traffic for unauthenticated users.
Post-Authentication Rules
On the other hand, post authentication rules are used to match traffic that will be banned for Wi-Fi clients
after authentication. As an example, if you want to disallow connected Wi-Fi clients to issue Telnet or SSH
traffic after authentication then you can set post authentication rules to match that traffic and once a
connected client passes the authentication process they will be banned from issuing telnet and SSH
connections.

Vouchers
Voucher Feature Description
Voucher feature will allow clients to have internet access for a limited duration using a code that is
randomly generated from GWN controller.
As an example, a coffee shop could offer internet access to customers via Wi-Fi using voucher codes that
can be delivered on each command. Once the voucher expires the client can no longer connect to the
internet.
Note that multiple users can use a single voucher for connection with expiration duration of the voucher
that starts counting after first successful connection from one of the users that are allowed.
Another interesting feature is that the admin can set data bandwidth limitation on each created voucher
depending on the current load on the network, users’ profile (VIP customers get more speed than regular
ones...etc.) and the internet connection available (fiber, DSL or cable…etc.) to avoid connection
congestion and slowness of the service.
Each created voucher can be printed and served to the customers for usage, and the limit is 1000
vouchers.
The usage of voucher feature needs to be combined with captive portal that is explained after this section,
in order to have the portal page requesting clients to enter voucher code for authentication.
Voucher Configuration
To configure/create vouchers for clients to use, follow below steps:
1. On controller web GUI, navigate under “Captive Portal → Vouchers”
2. Click on button in order to add a new voucher.
3. Enter voucher details which are explained on the next table.
4. Press save to create the voucher(s).
Notes:
• Users can specify how many vouchers to generate which have the same profile, this way the GWN
will generate as many vouchers as needed which do have the same settings avoiding creating
them one by one.

WEBSITE BLOCKING
Website blocking is a feature that allows the system administrator to download filter lists or create their
own filter lists to block DNS queries to some domains. These lists can be used to block adware sites,
malware sites, and can be used to block popular social media websites (Facebook, YouTube...etc).
The administrator is able to apply this feature to any combination of network groups or clients.
In order to configure website blocking policy follow the next steps:
Create Blackhole Policy
First, you need to create blocking policies on which you specify the list of domains to be blocked or allowed
or specify URL from which download full list of unwanted bad domains such as malware domains.
To do so go under “System Settings → Website Blocking → Blackhole policy” and press
to create a new policy.

Assign Blackhole Policy to Network Groups
Now, that we have created a policy. It’s time to assign it to a network group or client. To assign a blocking

group(s).
Note: A network group can be assigned to only one network group blackhole, thus you need to apply all
required blocking policies to a specific network group to its network group blackhole policy.
Press save and apply and the changes, and now all clients within network group0 are banned (protected)
from malware websites.
Assign Blackhole Policy to Clients
Another possibility, it to create client based blackhole(s) on which the policy will apply to specific client(s)
defined by a CACL (Client Access Control List) and on this case, the admin is left with the choice to either
force the network group policy on this client along with its specific policy or ignore the network group
definition and keep only the client-based policy.
For example, with the configuration above and while maintaining the blocking of malware websites on

→ Blackhole Policy” to set Facebook.com as bad domain.
Next, go under “Clients → Client Access” to define the list of clients to whom the policy will apply.
