Hi - Newbie here having difficulty setting up his first vigor 2920 firewall, though I've a few good years experience with linux/bsd-based firewalls of the iptables variety. My question: is there an up-to-date manual for the v2920? The one I downloaded is obviously not current, as the admin screens on the device itself are different. This makes it difficult for a newb such as myself to configure the device, since the language of the "object based" firewall is new to me and looks like a non-standard abstraction over whatever underlying technology might be used (be that iptables or PF etc).

I've set up 4 vlans and 1 wan with rules to allow web and dns out to the wan. I can ping & do hostname lookups from the device itself (so it can connect to the Internet) but devices on the lan cannot access the web. I don't know what I'm missing, probably I'm doing something very simply wrong, but if I had decent manual.... :?

Hello,
I'm not sure what the highest version would be that you've managed to find.

I found 2.1 here: ftp://ftp.draytek.pl/Seria_2920/Instrukcje/V2920_UserGuide_v2.1.pdf

I also found 2.5 (I think this is a direct link): http://www.draytek.com.tw/user/DraytekGetFile.php?path=/.upload/Rsource/f9b9847cd03cd7a96b529c0404592cf620120828020801129307.pdf&filename=UG-Vigor2920-V2.5.pdf

On the page at: http://www.draytek.com.tw/en/products/fiber/dualwan/item/2463-vigor2920fn.html

And also at: http://www.draytek.com/en/products/broadband/dualwan/item/2466-vigor2920vn.html

Best regards, Neal

Thanks for digging those links out! Looking at the v2.5, the screenshots seem closer, but I still find that some configuration options are either not explained at all, or not very comprehensively, without reasonable examples that would get a newb started.

Thanks again
