3.2 Common Problems
This section contains common issues faced by users of the CBR450.
Please visit CradlePoint Knowledgebase at http://knowledgebase.cradlepoint.com/ for more help and answers to your
other questions.
3.2.1 Your USB or ExpressCard Modem Does Not Work With the Router
If your USB data or ExpressCard modem is not working with the router, check the list of supported devices at
http://www.cradlepoint.com/modems to ensure you are using a supported device and carrier. The device you are
using must be supported on the carrier network providing your cellular service or it‘s considered an unsupported
device, even if it is supported on another carrier‘s network.
Sometimes a USB data modem needs to be updated or have other configurations set correctly in order to make a
connection through the router. If your USB Modem has not been updated recently, it is recommended that you do
so if it is having trouble connecting to the CBR450. Insert your USB data modem into your PC and access the
internet using the software provided by your cellular carrier. Follow the directions provided to complete the update.
Once you have updated your USB data modem, reconnect the cellular device to your CradlePoint router and
connect to the internet.
If you are using a 4G WiMAX modem you need to set the WiMAX Realm. This can be done on the administration
pages. Log in using the hostname ―cp/‖ or IP address ―http://192.168.0.1‖ in your browser. On page 3 of the First
Time Setup Wizard (go to Getting Started → First Time Setup), you can set the WiMAX Realm. Be sure to click
Apply on page 4 to save the change.
Some wireless carriers provide more than one Access Point Name (APN) that a modem can connect to. If you wish
to specify the APN, this can be done on the administration pages. Log in using the hostname ―cp/‖ or IP address
―http://192.168.0.1‖ in your browser. Go to Internet → Modem Settings. In the Modem Configuration section,
select your modem and click ―Configure.‖ There is an Access Point Name field: Enter the APN and click Apply.
Some APN examples are isp.cingular, ecp.tmobile.com, and vpn.com. The modem must be removed and
reinserted (or the router must be rebooted) for this change to take effect.

If the above issues have been resolved and you can connect to the router but you cannot get internet through it
using your modem, you may need to upgrade the router firmware. Use your computer (you may need to plug your
modem directly into your computer if you don‘t have another way to access the internet) to download the latest
firmware for the router (go to http://www.cradlepoint.com/support/CBR450 and scroll over firmware at the bottom
of the page). Then log in to the router administration pages and manually upload the firmware. Go to System
Settings → System Software and click on ―Manual Firmware Upload‖.
If you are still unable to access the internet after following the above directions, contact CradlePoint Technical
Support for further assistance.

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.

6.1 Content Filtering
You have two main options for filtering
content in a network created through your
CBR450.
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
―Create Account‖ link. 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 device‘s
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 CBR450 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
WiFi 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: 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 80—and therefore the Web server—within your network.
Add New Port Forwarding Rule: page 3
Protocol: Select from the following options in the dropdown
menu:
o TCP
o UDP
o TCP & UDP

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.

6.5 Local Networks
This section is used to configure the
settings for networks created by your
router. Note that changes made in this
section may also need to be
duplicated on devices that you want to
connect to your network(s).
For example, if you change a LAN‘s IP
address, devices within that network will lose
connection. They will have to reconnect to the
network.
The CBR450 includes these options:
VLAN (virtual LAN)
NAT-less routing
The user can set up multiple
networks, each with its own unique
configuration.
For example, one network might be
an isolated network for guests, while
another might be the main network
with administrative access. Both of these will use the Ethernet port for connectivity, but they can be set to have separate
VLAN settings.

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. The
Ethernet port must be in LAN mode or Disabled mode, and VPN and GRE must be disabled.
Disabled: Disable this network.

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 CBR450 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.

6.5.3 Local Network Interfaces
Each LAN type—Ethernet and VLAN—has a separate section with configuration options. Unless the default configuration
is sufficient, YOU MUST CONFIGURE EACH INTERFACE SEPARATELY in order to create the desired interface options
for a network. You can then select these interfaces to add to a network in the Local Network Editor (see above).
Select from the following tabs:
Ethernet Port Configuration
VLAN Interfaces
Ethernet Port Configuration
Ethernet Port Configuration provides
controls for your router‘s Ethernet port.
You have the ability to control the Link
Speed.
While there is a dropdown menu with
multiple options listed (LAN, WAN, and
disabled) for the Ethernet port type, THIS
MUST REMAIN ON THE “LOCAL
NETWORK (LAN)” SETTING. Most
CradlePoint routers allow different settings for the Ethernet ports, but the CBR450 only has one option for LAN. You will
lose connection to your router if you change this setting.
Link Speed: Default setting is Auto. The Auto setting is preferred in most cases.
Auto
10Mbps - Half Duplex
10Mbps - Full Duplex
100Mbps - Half Duplex

Ethernet Port Group Editor
Port groups are less relevant for the CBR450 than for
some other CradlePoint routers because it has only one
port. However, you can still change the port group ID for
your Ethernet port.
Port Group ID: The Port Group ID field provides a
reference for a port group 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
Ethernet port with a network configuration. Use a simple
short text phrase to describe this port group, such as
"main", "guestport", "LAN", etc.

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.
VLAN Editor
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

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 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 either USB or ExpressCard modems. 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 default interface and the
failover order. For other modem configuration options, see Internet → Modem Settings.
In the example shown an ExpressCard modem is set as the primary internet source, while a USB modem is attached as a
backup. The ExpressCard modem is ―Connected‖ while the USB 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 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.

7.3 GRE Tunnels (Advanced Mode only)
Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels can be used to create a connection between two private networks. The
CBR450 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.

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.

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

7.5 Modem Settings
This section shows all attached modems
and allows you to change settings. If you
have a 3G/4G dual-mode modem it will
show both modems using the same port.
7.5.1 Update/Activate a Modem
Some 3G modems can be updated and activated while plugged into the router. Updates and activation methods vary by
modem model and service provider. Possible methods are: PRL Update, Activation, and FUMO. All supported methods
will be displayed when you select your modem and click ―Update/Activate‖. If no methods are displayed for your device
then you will need to update and activate your device externally.
To update or activate a modem, select the checkbox next to the device and click ―Update / Activate‖.
The modem does not support Update/Activate
methods: A message will state that there is no support
for PRL Update, Activation, or FUMO.

The modem supports Update/Activate methods: A
message will display showing options for each supported
method:
Modem Activation / Update: Activate, Reactivate,
or Upgrade Configuration.
Preferred Roaming List (PRL) Update
Firmware Update Management Object (FUMO)
Click the appropriate icon 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 modem 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, PRL update has a 4-minute timeout, and
FUMO has a 10-minute timeout.

7.5.2 Modem Connection Settings (Advanced Mode Only)
This section changes settings that affect how all
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.
7.5.3 Modem Configuration Rules (Advanced
Mode Only)
This section allows you to create simple or
complex rules that affect how individual modems
or classes of modems (perhaps all WiMAX
modems or all modems from Sierra Wireless)
behave in the router.

CRADLEPOINT CBR450| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.3.0
7.6 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 CBR450 uses IPsec (Internet Protocol security) to authenticate and encrypt packets exchanged across the tunnel. To
set up a VPN tunnel with the CBR450 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 CBR450
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.

7.6.1 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/Boot” or ―On Demand.‖ ―Always On/Boot‖ is 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.

Tunnel Enabled: Enabled or Disabled.
MBR1200 Quick Connect: VPN tunnels in the CBR450 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.
7.6.2 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 CBR450 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.

7.6.3 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.

CRADLEPOINT CBR450| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.3.0
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 CBR450 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.

7.6.4 Page 4: IKE Phase 2
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.

7.6.5 Page 5: Dead Peer Detection
Dead Peer Detection (DPD) defines how the router will detect
when one end of the IPsec session loses connection while a
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.
You must click Finish to save your VPN tunnel.

These settings apply to all configured VPN tunnels. Changing the Global VPN Settings is rarely necessary; the default
values are almost always sufficient.
IKE / ISAKMP Port: Internet Key Exchange / Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol port.
Default: 500. This is a standard VPN port that usually does not need to be changed.
IKE / ISAKMP NAT-T Port: Internet Key Exchange / Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol
network address translation traversal port. Default: 4500. This is a standard VPN NAT-T port that usually does not
need to be changed.
NAT-T KeepAlive Interval: Default: 20 seconds. Range: 0-3600 seconds. 20 seconds will be sufficient in almost
all cases.
Tunnel Connect Retry: Default: 30 seconds. Range: 10-255 seconds. 30 seconds will be sufficient in almost all
cases.

7.6.8 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.

8.1.4 Bounce Pages
Bounce pages show up in your web browser when
the router is not connected to the internet. They
inform you that you are not connected and try to
explain why. If you disable bounce pages then you
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.
