* IP Netmask: Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binar y IP address represent network information. The default subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask.)

* Restrictions: Specifies whether an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection to the Gateway over the LAN inter face in order to monitor and configure the

Gateway. On the LAN Inter face, you can enable or disable administrator access. By default, administrative restrictions are turned off, meaning an administrator can open a Web

Administrator or Telnet connection through the LAN Inter face.

IGMP Forwarding: The default setting is Disabled. If you check this option, it will enable Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) multicast for warding. IGMP allows a router to determine which host groups have members on a given network segment.

See

“IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)” on page 112

for more information.

RIP Send Mode: Specifies whether the gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to adver tise its routing tables to other routers on your network. You may choose from the following protocols:

• RIP-1: Routing Information Protocol version 1

• RIP-2: RIP Version 2 is an extension of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-

1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP packets. While RIP-1 and

RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 suppor ts several new features, including inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting (which reduces the load on hosts which do not suppor t routing protocols.

• RIP-1 compatibility: Compatible with RIP version 1

• RIP-2 with MD5: MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are adver tised.

• RIP MD5 Key: Secret password when using RIP-2 with MD5.

RIP Receive Mode: Specifies whether the Gateway should use Routing Information

Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers on your network. The protocol choices are the same as for the RIP send mode.

Proxy ARP: Specifies whether you want the Gateway to respond when it receives an address resolution protocol for devices behind it. This is a way to make a computer that is physically located on one network appear to be par t of a different physical network connected to the same Gateway. It allows you to hide a computer with a public IP

Configure

address on a private network behind your Gateway, and still have the computer appear to be on the public network “in front of” the Gateway.

Static Client Address Translation: If you check this checkbox, this feature allows a statically addressed computer whose IP address falls outside of the LAN subnet(s) to simply plug in and get online without any manual configuration on either the host or the

Netopia Gateway. If enabled, statically addressed LAN hosts that have an address outside of LAN subnets will be able to communicate via the Router’s WAN inter face to the

Internet. Suppor ted static IP address values must fall outside of the Router's LAN subnet(s).

• IP Subnets: The IP Subnets screen allows you to configure up to seven secondary subnets and their DHCP ranges, by entering IP address/subnet mask pairs:

Note:

You need not use this screen if you have only a single Ethernet IP subnet.

This screen displays seven rows of editable columns. All seven row labels are always visible, regardless of the number of subnets configured.

To add an IP subnet, select one of the rows, and click the

Edit

54

The screen expands to allow you to enter subnet information.

If

DHCP Server (see below) is not enabled, the DHCP Start Address and DHCP End

Address fields do not appear.

Enter the Gateway’s IP address on the subnet in the

IP Address field and the subnet mask for the subnet in the Netmask field.

Enter the DHCP Start Address and End Address of the subnet range in their respective fields.

Ranges cannot overlap and there may be only one range per subnet.

Click the

Submit

button.

When you are finished adding subnets, click the Alert icon at the upper right, and in the resulting page, click the

link.

To delete a configured subnet, set both the IP address and subnet mask values to 0.0.0.0, either explicitly or by clearing each field and clicking the

Submit

button to commit the change.

NOTE:

All additional DHCP ranges use the global lease period value. See

page 55 .

Configure

• DHCP Server: Your Gateway can provide network configuration information to computers on your LAN, using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

If you already have a DHCP ser ver on your

LAN, you should turn this ser vice off.

If you want the Gateway to provide this service, click the

Server Mode

pull-down menu, choose

Server, then configure the range of IP addresses that you would like the

Gateway to hand out to your computers.

You can also specify the length of time the computers can use the configuration information; DHCP calls this period the lease time.

Your Ser vice Provider may, for cer tain ser vices, want to provide configuration from its

DHCP ser vers to the computers on your LANs. In this case, the Gateway will relay the

DHCP requests from your computers to a DHCP ser ver in the Ser vice Provider's network.

Click the relay-agent and enter the IP address of the Ser vice Provider's DHCP ser ver in the

Ser ver Address field. This address is furnished by the Ser vice Provider.

NOTE:

The Relay-agent option only works when NAT is off and the Gateway is in router mode.

55

Wireless

(supported models)

If your Gateway is a wireless model (such as a 3347W) you can enable or disable the wireless LAN (WLAN) by clicking the

Wireless

link.

Wireless functionality is enabled by default.

56

If you uncheck the

Enable Wireless checkbox, the Wireless Options are disabled, and the

Gateway will not provide or broadcast any wireless LAN ser vices.

SSID (Network ID): The SSID is preset to a number that is unique to your unit. You can either leave it as is, or change it by entering a freeform name of up to 32 characters, for example “Ed’s Wireless LAN”. On client PCs’ software, this might also be called the Net-

work Name. The SSID is used to identify this par ticular wireless LAN. Depending on their operating system or client wireless card, users must either:

• select from a list of available wireless LANs that appear in a scanned list on their client

• or, if you are in Closed System Mode (see

Enable Closed System Mode below), enter this name on their clients in order to join this wireless LAN.

The pull-down menu for enabling Privacy offers four settings: WPA-802.1x, WPA-PSK,

WEP - Automatic, and Off - No Privacy. WEP-Manual is also available on the Advanced

Configuration Options page.

See “Privacy” on page 57.

Configure

NOTE:

On the 2200-Series Gateways, WEP-Manual privacy is enabled by default.

Use the Netopia Installation Wizard on the accompanying Netopia CD to generate WEP keys for connecting wireless client computers.

Privacy

Off - No Privacy provides no encryption on your wireless LAN data.

WPA-802.1x provides RADIUS server authentication support.

WPA-PSK provides Wireless Protected Access, the most secure option for your wireless network. This mechanism provides the best data protection and access control.

57

58

The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the Router and the clients and is used to generate dynamically changing keys. The passphrase can be 8-63 characters or up to 64 hex characters. It is recommended to use at least 20 characters for best security.

WEP - Automatic is a passphrase generator. You enter a passphrase that you choose in the

Passphrase field. The passphrase can be any string of words or numbers.

You can provide a level of data security by enabling WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) for encr yption of network data. You can enable 40-, 128-, or 256-bit WEP Encr yption

(depending on the capability of your client wireless card) for IP traffic on your LAN.

You select a single key for encr yption of outbound traffic. The WEP-enabled client must have an identical key of the same length, in the identical slot (1 – 4) as the Gateway, in order to successfully receive and decr ypt the traffic. Similarly, the client also has a

‘default’ key that it uses to encr ypt its transmissions. In order for the Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have the identical key of the same length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a Gateway and its clients need only enter, share, and use the first key.

Note: This page displays different options depending on which form of Privacy or other options you have enabled.

You can then configure:

Operating Mode: The pull-down menu allows you to select and lock the Gateway into the wireless transmission mode you want. For compatibility with clients using 802.11b (up to

Configure

11 Mbps transmission) and 802.11g (up to 20+ Mbps), select

Normal (802.11b + g). To limit your wireless LAN to one mode or the other, select

802.11b Only, or 802.11g Only.

NOTE:

If you choose to limit the operating mode to 802.11b or 802.11g only, clients using the mode you excluded will not be able to connect.

Default Channel: on which the network will broadcast. This is a frequency range within the

2.4Ghz band. Channel selection depends on government regulated radio frequencies that var y from region to region. The widest range available is from 1 to 14. However, in Nor th

America only 1 to 11 may be selected. Europe, France, Spain and Japan will differ. Channel selection can have a significant impact on per formance, depending on other wireless activity close to this Gateway. Channel selection is not necessar y at the client computers; the clients will scan the available channels seeking access points using the same SSID as the client.

AutoChannel Setting: For 802.11G models, AutoChannel is a feature that allows the

Netopia Gateway to determine the best channel to broadcast automatically.

Three settings are available from the pull-down menu:

Off-Use default, At Startup, and

Continuous.

Off-Use default is the default setting; the Netopia Gateway will use the configured default channel selected from the previous pull-down menu.

At Startup causes the Netopia Gateway at startup to briefly initialize on the default channel, then per form a full two- to three-second scan, and switch to the best channel it can find, remaining on that channel until the next reboot.

Continuous per forms the at-startup scan, and will continuously monitor the current channel for any other Access Point beacons. If an Access Point beacon is detected on the same channel, the Netopia Gateway will initiate a three- to four-minute scan of the channels, locate a better one, and switch. Once it has switched, it will remain on this channel for at least 30 minutes before switching again if another Access Point is detected.

Enable Closed System Mode: If enabled, Closed System Mode hides the wireless network from the scanning features of wireless client computers. Unless both the wireless clients and the Gateway share the same SSID in Closed System mode, the Gateway’s wireless LAN will not appear as an available network when scanned for by wireless-enabled

61

62

computers. Members of the Closed System WLAN must log onto the Gateway’s wireless network with the identical SSID as that configured in the router.

Closed System mode is an ideal way to increase wireless security and to prevent casual detection by unwanted neighbors, office users, or malicious users such as hackers.

If you do not enable Closed System Mode, it is more convenient, but potentially less secure, for clients to access your WLAN by scanning available access points. You must decide based on your own network requirements.

About Closed System Mode

Enabling Closed System Mode on your wireless Gateway provides another level of security, since your wireless LAN will no longer appear as an available access point to client PCs that are casually scanning for one.

Your own wireless network clients, however, must log into the wireless LAN by using the exact SSID of the Netopia Gateway.

In addition, if you have enabled WEP encr yption on the Netopia Gateway, your network clients must also have WEP encr yption enabled, and must have the same WEP encr yption key as the Netopia Gateway.

Once the Netopia Gateway is located by a client computer, by setting the client to a matching SSID, the client can connect immediately if WEP is not enabled. If WEP is enabled then the client must also have WEP enabled and a matching WEP key.

Wireless client cards from different manufacturers and different operating systems accomplish connecting to a wireless LAN and enabling WEP in a variety of ways. Consult the documentation for your par ticular wireless card and/or operating system.

NOTE:

While clients may also have a passphrase feature, these are vendor-specific and may not necessarily create the same keys. You can passphrase generate a set of keys on one, and manually enter them on the other to get around this.

Block Wireless Bridging: Check the checkbox to block wireless clients from communicating with other wireless clients on the LAN side of the Gateway.

Configure

WEP - Manual allows you to enter your own encryption keys manually. This is a difficult process, but only needs to be done once. Avoid the temptation to enter all the same characters.

Encryption Key Size #1 – #4: Selects the length of each encryption key. The longer the key, the stronger the encr yption and the more difficult it is to break the encr yption.

63

Encryption Key #1 – #4: The encryption keys. You enter keys using hexadecimal digits.

For 40/64bit encr yption, you need ten digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit

WEP. Hexadecimal characters are 0 – 9, and a – f.

Examples:

40bit: 02468ACE02

128bit: 0123456789ABCDEF0123456789

256bit: 592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F21A09C

Use WEP encryption key (1 – 4) #: Specifies which key the Gateway will use to encrypt transmitted traffic. The default is key #1.

WiFi Multimedia

WiFi Multimedia is an advanced feature that allows you to prioritize various types of data travelling over the wireless network. Cer tain types of data that are sensitive to delays, such as voice or video, must be prioritized ahead of other, less delay-sensitive types, such as email.

WiFi Multimedia currently implements wireless Quality of Ser vice (QoS) by transmitting data depending on Diffser v priority settings. These priorities are mapped into four Access

Categories (AC), in increasing order of priority:

Background (BK),

Best Effor t (BE),

Video (VI), and

Voice (VO).

It requires WiFi Multimedia (WMM)-capable clients, usually a separate feature enabled at the client network settings, and client PC software that makes use of Differentiated Services (Diffser v). Refer to your operating system instructions for enabling Diffser v QoS..

When you click the

Enable Interface: You can disable the inter face by unchecking the checkbox. However, doing so will disable all ability for your LAN users to connect to the WAN using the Gateway.

Address Mapping (NAT): Specifies whether you want the Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when communicating with remote routers. NAT lets you conceal details of your network from remote routers. By default, address mapping is enabled.

Restrictions: This setting determines the types of traffic the Gateway accepts from the

WAN. Admin Disabled means that Gateway traffic is accepted but administrative commands are ignored. None means that all traffic is accepted. When PPP is enabled, Admin

Disabled is the default.

PPPoE/DHCP Autosensing: If you are using PPPoE, checking this checkbox enables automatic sensing of your WAN connection type (PPPoE and DHCP.) If this feature is enabled, the gateway attempts to connect using PPPoE first. If the Gateway fails to connect after 60 seconds, it switches to DHCP. As soon as it can connect via DHCP, the Gateway chooses and sets DHCP as its default. Other wise, after attempting to connect via DHCP for

60 seconds, the Gateway switches back to PPPoE. The Gateway will continue to switch back and for th in this manner until it successfully connects.

Configure

ISP Username: This is the username used to authenticate your Gateway with the Service

Provider's network. This value is given to you by your Ser vice Provider.

Configure

RIP Receive MD5 Key: (Only appears if RIP-2 with MD5 RIP Receive Mode is selected)

The purpose of MD5 authentication is to provide an additional level of confidence that a

RIP packet received was generated by a reliable source. In other words, MD5 authentication provides an enhanced level of security that information that your PC receives does not originate from a malicious source posing as par t of your network. This field allows you to enter an MD5 encr yption key of from 1 – 16 ASCII characters for authenticating RIP receipts.

Multicast Forward: If you check this checkbox, this inter face acts as an IGMP proxy host, and IGMP packets are transmitted and received on this inter face on behalf of IGMP hosts on the LAN inter face.

IGMP Null Source Address: If you check this checkbox, the source IP address of every

IGMP packet transmitted from this inter face is set to 0.0.0.0. This complies with the requirements of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly adver tised IP address on the

WAN inter face. This checkbox is only available if “Multicast For ward” is checked.

LCP Settings:

Authentication: Select Off, PAP and/or CHAP, PAP only, or CHAP only from the pulldown menu. The settings for por t authentication on the Gateway must match the authentication expected by the remote system. The username and passwords are available on the

ATM Traffic Shaping: You can prioritize delay-sensitive data by configuring the Quality of Ser vice (QoS) characteristics of the vir tual circuit. Click the

ATM Traffic Shaping

link.

You can choose UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate), CBR (Constant Bit Rate), or VBR (Variable

Bit Rate) from the pull-down menu and set the Peak Cell Rate (PCR) in the editable field.

UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate) guarantees no minimum transmission rate. Cells are transmitted on a “best effor t” basis. However, there is a cap on the maximum transmission rate for UBR VCs. In a practical situation:

• UBR VCs should be transmitted at a priority lower than CBR.

• Bandwidth should be shared equally among UBR VCs.

UBR applications are non-real-time traffic such as IP data traffic.

CBR (Constant Bit Rate) guarantees a certain transmission rate (although the application may underutilize this bandwidth). A Peak Cell Rate (PCR) characterizes CBR. CBR is most suited for real time applications such as real time voice / video, although it can be used for other applications.

VBR (Variable Bit Rate) This class is characterized by:

• a

Peak Cell Rate (PCR), which is a temporary burst, not a sustained rate, and

• a

Sustained Cell Rate (SCR),

• a Burst Tolerance (BT), specified in terms of

Maximum Burst Size (MBS). The MBS is the maximum number of cells that can be transmitted at the peak cell rate and should be less than, or equal to the Peak Cell Rate, which should be less than, or equal to the line rate.

VBR has two sub-classes:

a. VBR non-real-time (VBR-nrt): Typical applications are non-real-time traffic, such as IP data traffic. This class yields a fair amount of Cell Delay Variation (CDV).

b. VBR real time (VBR-rt): Typical applications are real-time traffic, such as compressed voice over IP and video conferencing. This class transmits cells with a more tightly bounded Cell Delay Variation. The applications follow CBR.

IP Static Routes

A static route identifies a manually configured pathway to a remote network. Unlike dynamic routes, which are acquired and confirmed periodically from other routers, static routes do not time out. Consequently, static routes are useful when working with PPP, since an intermittent PPP link may make maintenance of dynamic routes problematic.

When you click the

Static Routes

link, the IP Static Routes page appears.

You can configure as many as 32 static IP routes for the Gateway. To add a static route, click the

Add

button.

The IP Static Route Entry page appears.

88

Destination Network: Enter the IP address of the static route. It may not be 0.0.0.0.

Netmask: Enter the subnet mask for the IP network at the other end of the static route.

The subnet mask associated with the destination network must represent the same network class (A, B, or C) or a lower class (such as a class C subnet mask or class B network number) to be valid.

Configure

Interface Type: Choose PPP (vcc1) – depending on the inter face; typically vcc1 for

DSL – or IP Address from the pull-down menu to specify whether the static route is accessible through PPP or IP address.

Gateway: Enter the IP address of the gateway for the static route. The default gateway must be located on a network connected to your Netopia Gateway configured inter face.

Metric: Specifies the hop count for the static route. Enter a number from 1 to 15 to indicate the number of routes (actual or best guess) a packet must traverse to reach the remote network. Some metric or a value of 1 will be used to indicate:

• The remote network is one router away and the static route is the best way to

reach it.

• The remote network is more than one router away but the static route should not

be replaced by a dynamic route, even if the dynamic route is more efficient.

RIP Advertise: From the pull-down menu, choose how the static route should be advertised via RIP:

• Split Horizon: Do not adver tise route if the gateway is on the same subnet.

• Always: Adver tise route in all RIP messages.

• Never: Do not adver tise route.

IP Static ARP

Your Gateway maintains a dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table to map IP addresses to Ethernet (MAC) addresses. It populates this ARP table dynamically, by retrieving IP address/MAC address pairs only when it needs them. Optionally, you can define static ARP entries to map IP addresses to their corresponding Ethernet MAC addresses.

Unlike dynamic ARP table entries, static ARP table entries do not time out. The IP address cannot be 0.0.0.0. The Ethernet MAC address entr y is in nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn (hexadecimal) format.

Pinholes

Pinholes allow you to transparently route selected types of network traffic, such as FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections, to a specific host behind the Gateway. Creating a pinhole allows access traffic originating from a remote connection (WAN) to be sent to the internal computer (LAN) that is specified in the Pinhole page.

Pinholes are common for applications like multiplayer online games. Refer to software manufacturer application documentation for specific traffic types and por t numbers.

90

Configure Specific Pinholes. Planning for Your Pinholes.

Determine if any of the ser vice applications that you want to provide on your LAN stations use TCP or UDP protocols. If an application does, then you must configure a pinhole to implement por t forwarding. This is accessed from the

Advanced -> Pinholes page.

Configure

Example: A LAN Requiring Three Pinholes .

The procedure on the following pages describes how you set up your NAT-enabled Netopia Gateway to suppor t three separate applications. This requires passing three kinds of specific IP traffic through to your

LAN.

Application 1: You have a Web server located on your LAN behind your Netopia Gateway and would like users on the Internet to have access to it. With NAT “On”, the only externally visible IP address on your network is the Gateway’s WAN IP (supplied by your Ser vice Provider). All traffic intended for that LAN Web ser ver must be directed to that IP address.

Application 2: You want one of your LAN stations to act as the “central repository” for all email for all of the LAN users.

Application 3: One of your LAN stations is specially configured for game applications. You want this specific LAN station to be dedicated to games.

A sample table to plan the desired pinholes is:

LAN Internal IP

Address

192.168.1.1

192.168.1.2

192.168.1.3

For this example, Internet protocols TCP and UDP must be passed through the NAT security feature and the Gateway’s embedded Web (HTTP) por t must be re-assigned by configuring new settings on the Internal Ser vers page.

TIPS for making Pinhole Entries:

1. If the por t for warding feature is required for Web ser vices, ensure that the embedded Web ser ver’s por t number is re-assigned PRIOR to any Pinhole data entr y.

2. Enter data for one Pinhole at a time.

3. Use a unique name for each Pinhole. If you choose a duplicate name, it will over write the previous information without warning.

IPMaps

IPMaps suppor ts one-to-one Network Address Translation (NAT) for IP addresses assigned to ser vers, hosts, or specific computers on the LAN side of the Netopia Gateway.

A single static or dynamic (DHCP) WAN IP address must be assigned to suppor t other devices on the LAN. These devices utilize Netopia’s default NAT/PAT capabilities.

FAQs for the IPMaps Feature

Before configuring an example of an IPMaps-enabled network, review these frequently asked questions.

What are IPMaps and how are they used?

The IPMaps feature allows

multi-

ple static WAN IP addresses to be assigned to the Netopia Gateway.

Static WAN IP addresses are used to suppor t specific ser vices, like a web ser ver, mail ser ver, or DNS ser ver. This is accomplished by mapping a separate static WAN IP address to a specific internal LAN IP address. All traffic arriving at the Gateway intended for the static IP address is transferred to the internal device. All outbound traffic from the internal device appears to originate from the static IP address.

Locally hosted ser vers are suppor ted by a public IP address while LAN users behind the

NAT-enabled IP address are protected.

IPMaps is compatible with the use of NAT, with either a statically assigned IP address or

DHCP/PPP ser ved IP address for the NAT table.

What types of servers are supported by IPMaps?

IPMaps allows a Netopia

Gateway to suppor t ser vers behind the Gateway, for example, web, mail, FTP, or DNS ser vers. VPN ser vers are not suppor ted at this time.

Can I use IPMaps with my PPPoE or PPPoA connection?

Yes. IPMaps can be assigned to the WAN inter face

provided they are on the same subnet. Service providers will need to ensure proper routing to all IP addresses assigned to your WAN interface.

Will IPMaps allow IP addresses from different subnets to be assigned to my Gateway?

IPMap will suppor t statically assigned WAN IP addresses from the

same subnet.

WAN IP addresses from different subnets are

not supported.

Configure

NAT Combination Application.

Netopia’s NAT security feature allows you to configure a sophisticated LAN layout that uses both the Pinhole and Default Ser ver capabilities.

With this topology, you configure the embedded administration por ts as a first task, followed by the Pinholes and, finally, the NAT Default Ser ver.

When using both NAT pinholes and NAT Default Ser ver the Gateway works with the following rules (in sequence) to for ward traffic from the Internet to the LAN:

1.

2.

3.

If the packet is a response to an existing connection created by outbound traffic from a LAN PC, forward to that station.

If not, check for a match with a pinhole configuration and, if one is found, forward the packet according to the pinhole rule.

If there’s no pinhole, the packet is forwarded to the Default Server.

IP-Passthrough.

Your Gateway offers an IP passthrough feature. The IP passthrough feature allows a single PC on the LAN to have the Gateway’s public address assigned to it.

It also provides PAT (NAPT) via the same public IP address for all other hosts on the private

LAN subnet. Using IP passthrough:

The public WAN IP is used to provide IP address translation for private LAN computers.

The public WAN IP is assigned and reused on a LAN computer.

DHCP address ser ving can automatically ser ve the WAN IP address to a LAN computer.

When DHCP is used for addressing the designated passthrough PC, the acquired or configured WAN address is passed to DHCP, which will dynamically configure a singleser vable-address subnet, and reser ve the address for the configured MAC address.

This dynamic subnet configuration is based on the local and remote WAN address and subnet mask. If the WAN inter face does not have a suitable subnet mask that is usable, for example when using PPP or PPPoE, the DHCP subnet configuration will default to a class C subnet mask.

101

102

If you want to manually assign the WAN address to a LAN PC, do not check the

DHCP

Enable checkbox.

If you check the DHCP Enable checkbox, the screen expands.

The Host Hardware Address field displays. Here you enter the MAC address of the designated IP-Passthrough computer.

If this MAC address is not all zeroes, then it will use DHCP to set the LAN host's address to the (configured or acquired) WAN IP address.

The MAC address must be six colon-delimited or dash-delimited sets of hex digits ('0' –

'FF').

If you leave the MAC address as zeros then the first DHCP client will be assigned the

WAN address.

Once configured, the passthrough host's DHCP leases will be shor tened to two minutes.

This allows for timely updates of the host's IP address, which will be a private IP address

before the WAN connection is established. After the WAN connection is established and has an address, the passthrough host can renew its DHCP address binding to acquire the

WAN IP address.

A restriction.

Since both the Gateway and the passthrough host will use the same IP address, new sessions that conflict with existing sessions will be rejected by the Gateway.

For example, suppose you are a teleworker using an IPSec tunnel from the Gateway and from the passthrough host. Both tunnels go to the same remote endpoint, such as the VPN access concentrator at your employer’s office. In this case, the first one to star t the IPSec traffic will be allowed; the second one – since, from the WAN, it's indistinguishable – will fail.

Differentiated Services

(supported models)

When you click the

Differentiated Services

link, the Differentiated Ser vices configuration screen appears.

Differentiated Ser vices (Diffser v) allow your Gateway to make Quality of Ser vice (QoS) decisions about what path Internet traffic, such as Voice over IP (VoIP), should travel across your network. For example, you may want streaming video conferencing to use high quality, but more restrictive, connections, or, you might want e-mail to use less restrictive, but less reliable, connections.

VDSL and Bonded ADSL models display this screen:

Most other models display this screen:

Enable checkbox.

(Not displayed on VDSL and Bonded ADSL models) Enter a value from 60 to 100 (percent) in the

Low-High Priority Ratio field. The default is 92.

Differentiated Ser vices uses the low-to-high priority queue ratio to regulate traffic flow.

For example, to provide the least possible latency and highest possible throughput for high priority traffic, you could set the ratio to 100(%). This would cause the gateway to for ward low priority data only after the high priority queue is completely empty. In practice, you should set it to something less than 100%, since the low priority traffic might have to wait too long to be passed, and consequently be subject to time-outs.

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)

Multicasting is a method for transmitting large amounts of information to many, but not all, computers over an internet. One common use is to distribute real time voice, video, and data ser vices to the set of computers which have joined a distributed conference.

Other uses include updating the address books of mobile computer users in the field, or sending out company newsletters to a distribution list.

Since a router should not be used as a passive for warding device, Netopia Gateways use a protocol for for warding multicasting: Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP).

Netopia Gateways suppor t IGMP Version 1, Version 2, or, beginning with Netopia Firmware

Version 7.7, Version 3.

See the “Advanced” option in

“LAN” on page 51

for more information.

IGMP “Snooping” is a feature of Ethernet layer 2 switches that “listens in” on the IGMP conversation between computers and multicast routers. Through this process, it builds a database of where the multicast routers reside by noting IGMP general queries used in the querier selection process and by listening to other router protocols.

From the host point of view, the snooping function listens at a por t level for an IGMP repor t. The switch then processes the IGMP repor t and star ts for warding the relevant multicast stream onto the host's por t. When the switch receives an IGMP leave message, it processes the leave message, and if appropriate stops the multicast stream to that par ticular por t. Basically, customer IGMP messages although processed by the switch are also sent to the multicast routers.

In order for IGMP snooping to function with IGMP Version 3, it must always track the full source filter state of each host on each group, as was previously done with Version 2 only when Fast Leave suppor t was enabled.

IGMP Version 3 supports:

IGMP Source Filtering: the ability for group memberships to incorporate source address filtering. This allows “Source-Specific Multicast” (SSM). By adding source filtering, a Gateway that proxies IGMP can more selectively join the specific multicast group for which there are interested LAN multicast receivers.

These features require no user configuration on the Gateway.

Configure

To configure IGMP options available in Netopia Gateways, click the

IGMP

link.

The IGMP page appears.

You can set the following options:

IGMP Snooping – checking this checkbox enables the Netopia Gateway to “listen in” to IGMP traffic.

The Gateway discovers multicast group membership for the purpose of restricting multicast transmissions to only those por ts which have requested them. This helps to reduce overall network traffic from streaming media and other bandwidth-intensive

IP multicast applications.

Robustness – a way of indicating how sensitive to lost packets the network is. IGMP can recover from robustness minus 1 lost IGMP packet. The default value is 2.

Query Interval– the amount of time in seconds between IGMP General Quer y messages sent by the querier gateway. The default quer y inter val is 125 seconds.

Query Response Interval – the maximum amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP router waits to receive a response to a General Quer y message. The default quer y response inter val is 10 seconds and must be less than the quer y inter val.

Unsolicited Report Interval – the amount of time in seconds between repetitions of a par ticular computer’s initial repor t of membership in a group. The default unsolicited repor t inter val is 10 seconds.

Querier Version – Select a version of the IGMP Querier from the pull-down menu: v1, v2, or v3. The default v3 allows for backward compatibility mode with the earlier versions, and should not need to be changed. However, for administrative purposes you may select either v1 or v2.

Last Member Query Interval – the amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP gateway waits to receive a response to a Group-Specific Quer y message. The last member quer y inter val is also the amount of time in seconds between successive Group-

Specific Quer y messages. The default last member quer y inter val is 1 second (10 deciseconds).

113

114

Last Member Query Count – the number of Group-Specific Query messages sent before the gateway assumes that there are no members of the host group being queried on this inter face. The default last member quer y count is 2.

Fast Leave – Checking this checkbox enables a non-standard expedited leave mechanism. The querier keeps track of which client is requesting which channel by IP address.

When a leave message is received, the querier can check its internal table to see if there are any more clients on this group. If there are none, it immediately sends an

IGMP leave message to the upstream querier. By default, Fast Leave is set to Off.

UPnP

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) is a set of protocols that allows a PC to automatically discover other UPnP devices (anything from an internet gateway device to a light switch), retrieve an XML description of the device and its ser vices, control the device, and subscribe to real-time event notification.

By default, UPnP is enabled on the Netopia Gateway.

For Windows XP users, the automatic discover y feature places an icon representing the Netopia Gateway automatically in the “My

Network Places” folder. Double-clicking this icon opens the Gateway’s web UI.

PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway’s WAN IP address, and automatically create NAT por t maps. This means that applications that suppor t UPnP, and are used with a UPnPenabled Netopia Gateway, will not need application layer gateway suppor t on the Netopia

Gateway to work through NAT.

You can disable UPnP, if you are not using any UPnP devices or applications.

Uncheck the

UPnP Enabled

checkbox, and click the

Submit

button.

The Aler t icon will appear in the upper right corner of the web page. Click the Aler t icon, and when prompted, click the

LAN Management

TR-064 is a LAN-side DSL Gateway configuration specification. It is an extension of UPnP. It defines more ser vices to locally manage the Netopia Gateway. While UPnP allows open access to configure the Gateway's features, TR-064 requires a password to execute any command that changes the Gateway's configuration.

TR-064 is enabled by default. To disable it:

Ethernet Bridge

The Netopia Gateway can be used as a bridge, rather than a router. A bridge is a device that joins two networks. As an Internet access device, a bridge connects the home computer directly to the ser vice provider’s network equipment with no inter vening routing functionality, such as Network Address Translation. Your home computer becomes just another address on the ser vice provider’s network. In a DSL connection, the bridge ser ves simply to convey the digital data information back and for th over your telephone lines in a form that keeps it separate from your voice telephone signals.

If your ser vice provider’s network is set up to provide your Internet connectivity via bridge mode, you can set your Netopia Gateway to be compatible.

Bridges let you join two networks, so that they appear to be par t of the same physical network. As a bridge for protocols other than TCP/IP, your Gateway keeps track of as many as

512 MAC (Media Access Control) addresses, each of which uniquely identifies an individual host on a network. Your Gateway uses this bridging table to identify which hosts are accessible through which of its network inter faces. The bridging table contains the MAC address of each packet it sees, along with the inter face over which it received the packet. Over time, the Gateway learns which hosts are available through its WAN por t and/or its LAN por t.

When configured in Bridge Mode, the Netopia will act as a pass-through device and allow the workstations on your LAN to have public addresses directly on the internet.

NOTE:

In this mode the Netopia is providing NO firewall protection as is afforded by

NAT. Also, only the workstations that have a public address can access the internet. This can be useful if you have multiple static public IPs on the LAN.

Bridging per WAN is suppor ted in conjunction with VLANs – individual WANs can be bridged to the LAN only if the WANs are par t of a VLAN. (See

“VLAN” on page 121 for more infor-

mation.) The capability to bridge individual VLANs is suppor ted only if the underlying encapsulation is RFC1483-Bridged (ether-llc).

VLAN

When you click the

VLAN

link the VLANs page appears.

A Vir tual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the same wire even though they may be physically located on different segments of a LAN. You set up VLANs by configuring the Gateway software rather than hardware. This makes VLANs ver y flexible. An impor tant advantage of VLANs is that when a computer is physically moved to another location, it can stay on the same VLAN without hardware reconfiguration. VLANs behave like separate and independent networks.

Your Gateway suppor ts the following:

Global Enable/Disable of VLANs

VLANs of “Global” type

Packet prioritization based on VLAN

Suppor t for VLAN ID 0 on the Ethernet WAN

To configure VLANs check the

Enable checkbox.

121

An example of multiple VLANs, using a Netopia Gateway with VGx managed switch technology, is shown below:

To create a VLAN select a list item from the main VLAN page and click the

Edit

button.

The

VLAN Entry page appears.

122

Check the

Enable checkbox, and enter a descriptive name for the VLAN.

Configure

You can create up to 8 VLANs, and you can also restrict any VLAN, and the computers on it, from administering the Gateway.

VLAN Name – A descriptive name for the VLAN.

Type – LAN or WAN Port(s) can be enabled on the VLAN. You can choose a type designation as follows:

By-Port: indicating that the VLAN is port-based. Traffic sent to this port will be treated as belonging to the VLAN, and will not be for warded to other por ts that are not within a common VLAN segment.

Global: indicating that the ports joining this VLAN are part of a global 802.1q Ethernet

VLAN. This VLAN includes por ts on this Router and may include por ts within other devices throughout the network. The VID in this case may define the behavior of traffic between all devices on the network having por ts that are members of this VLAN segment.

123

124

VLAN ID – If you select Global as the VLAN Type, the VLAN ID field appears for you to enter a VID. This must be a unique identifying number between 1 and 4094. (A VID of zero (0) is permitted on the Ethernet WAN por t only.)

Admin Restricted – If you want to prevent administrative access to the Gateway from this VLAN, check the checkbox.

802.1p Priority Bit: If you set this from the pull-down menu to a value greater than 0, all packets of this VLAN with unmarked priority bits (pbits) will be re-marked to this priority.

Click the

Submit

button.

The

VLAN Port Configuration screen appears.

Configure

Por t inter faces available for this VLAN are listed in the left hand column.

Displayed por t inter faces var y depending on the kinds of physical por ts on your Gateway, for example, Ethernet, USB, and/or wireless.

Also, if you have multiple wireless SSIDs defined, these may be displayed as well (See

Enable Multiple Wireless IDs on page 65

)

For Netopia VGx technology models, separate Ethernet switch por ts are displayed and may be configured.

To enable any of them on this VLAN, check the associated

Enable checkbox(es).

Typically you will choose a physical por t, such as an Ethernet por t (example:

eth0.1) or a wireless SSID (example:

ssid1), and make the port routable by checking uplink.

When you enable an inter face, the Tag, Priority, and Promote checkboxes and an

802.1p Priority Bit pull-down menu appear for that inter face.

Tag – Packets transmitted from this port through this VLAN must be tagged with the

VLAN VID. Packets received through this por t destined for this VLAN must be tagged with the VLAN VID by the source. The Tag option is only available on

Global type ports.

Priority – Use any 802.1p priority bits in the VLAN header to prioritize packets within the Gateway’s internal queues, according to DiffSer v priority mapping rules. See

“Differentiated Ser vices” on page 103 for more information.

125

126

Promote – Write any 802.1p priority bits into the IP-TOS header bit field for received IP packets on this por t destined for this VLAN. Write any IP-TOS priority bits into the

802.1p priority bit field for tagged IP packets transmitted from this por t for this VLAN.

All mappings between Ethernet 802.1p and IP-TOS are made according to a pre-defined

QoS mapping policy. The pre-defined mapping can now be set in the CLI. See

“Queue

Configuration” on page 298 . See also

“Differentiated Ser vices” on page 103

for more information.

802.1p Priority Bit – If you set this field to a value greater than 0, all packets received on this por t with unmarked priority bits (pbits) will be re-marked to this priority. If the por t 802.1p PBit is greater than 0, the VLAN 802.1p PBit setting is ignored.

Note:

To make a set of VLANs non-routable, the uplink port must be included in at least one VLAN. It must then be excluded from any VLANs that are intended to be non-routable.

Example #1

You want to configure a 3347NWG-VGx Gateway with two SSIDs (see

“Multiple SSIDs” on page 65 for more information) for two VLANs, allowing both access to the Internet. One

SSID will be in the same VLAN as the Ethernet Switch, so that those two networks can communicate. The second VLAN will be for the other SSID. The second VLAN will also be denied access to the 3347NWG-VGx web inter face and telnet inter face. This setup might be useful if you have a doctor’s office or a coffee shop, and you want to keep your customers separated from the rest of the network.

1.

In the VLANs page, check the Enable checkbox, select VLAN #1 in the

For this case, check uplink and eth0.1.

Click the Submit button.

In the VLAN page, select VLAN #2 in the VLANs list, and click the Edit button.

Continue to add two more VLANs, each with a unique Name.

One will need uplink and eth0.2,

133

the other with uplink and eth0.3.

134

7.

8.

Once you have finished with the configuration of the VLANs, click on the

Alert icon in the upper right hand corner.

This will validate that the settings are legal for your network.

Click the

Save and Restart

link.

This will restar t the Netopia Gateway and retain the VLAN configuration.

Note:

To make a set of VLANs non-routable, the

uplink port must be included in at least one VLAN. It must then be excluded from any VLANs that are nonroutable. The VLANs that have this excluded will not only be prevented from accessing the Gateway or the Internet, they will not obtain an IP address through DHCP on the Gateway. If you want to allow them these privileges, the

uplink option will need to be selected.

By default if the

vcc1 option (in this case PPP over Ethernet VCC1) is not added to any VLAN, all users will be able to access the Internet, unless

uplink has been disabled. If you add the

vcc1 inter face to a VLAN, only that VLAN will be able to access the Internet, while the rest will be restricted.

Internal Servers

Your Gateway ships with an embedded Web ser ver and suppor t for a Telnet session, to allow ease of use for configuration and maintenance. The default por ts of 80 for HTTP and

23 for Telnet may be reassigned. This is necessary if a pinhole is created to support applications using por t 80 or 23.

See “Pinholes” on page 90.

for more information on Pinhole configuration.

Web (HTTP) Server Port: To reassign the port number used to access the Netopia embedded Web ser ver, change this value to a value greater than 1024. When you next access the embedded Netopia Web ser ver, append the IP address with <por t number>,

(e.g. Point your browser to

http://210.219.41.20:8080).

Telnet Server Port: To reassign the port number used to access your Netopia embedded

Telnet ser ver, change this value to a value greater than 1024. When you next access the

Netopia embedded Telnet ser ver, append the IP address with <por t number>, (e.g.

telnet

Passwords

Access to your Gateway may be controlled through two optional user accounts, Admin and

User. When you first power up your Gateway, you create a password for the Admin account. The User account does not exist by default. As the Admin, a password for the

User account can be entered or existing passwords changed.

Create and Change Passwords.

You can establish different levels of access security to protect your Netopia Gateway settings from unauthorized display or modification.

Admin level privileges let you display and modify all settings in the Netopia Gateway

(Read/Write mode). The Admin level password is created when you first access your

Gateway.

User level privileges let you display (but not change) settings of the Netopia Gateway.

(Read Only mode)

To prevent anyone from obser ving the password you enter, characters in the old and new password fields are not displayed as you type them.

147

To display the Passwords window, click the

Security

Firewall

Use a Netopia Firewall

BreakWater Basic Firewall.

BreakWater delivers an easily selectable set of preconfigured firewall protection levels. For simple implementation these settings (comprised of three levels) are readily available through Netopia’s embedded web ser ver inter face.

BreakWater Basic Firewall’s three settings are:

ClearSailing

ClearSailing, BreakWater's default setting, suppor ts both inbound and outbound traffic.

It is the only basic firewall setting that fully interoperates with all other Netopia software features.

SilentRunning

Using this level of firewall protection allows transmission of outbound traffic on pre-configured TCP/UDP por ts. It disables any attempt for inbound traffic to identify the Gateway. This is the Internet equivalent of having an unlisted number.

LANdLocked

The third option available turns off all inbound and outbound traffic, isolating the LAN and disabling all WAN traffic.

NOTE:

BreakWater Basic Firewall operates independent of the NAT functionality on the Gateway.

Basic Firewall Background

As a device on the Internet, a Netopia Gateway requires an IP address in order to send or receive traffic.

The IP traffic sent or received have an associated application por t which is dependent on the nature of the connection request. In the IP protocol standard the following session types are common applications:

ICMP

SNMP

HTTP

• telnet

FTP

DHCP

By receiving a response to a scan from a por t or series of por ts (which is the expected behavior according to the IP standard), hackers can identify an existing device and gain a potential opening for access to an internet-connected device.

To protect LAN users and their network from these types of attacks, BreakWater offers three levels of increasing protection.

The following tables indicate the state of ports associated with session types, both on the WAN side and the LAN side of the Gateway.

Enabling this allows the Gateway to re-establish the tunnel if either the

Netopia Gateway or the peer gateway is rebooted.

Setting the Soft MBytes parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec

Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Soft MByte value. The value can be configured between 1 and 1,000,000 MB and refers to data traffic passed. If this value is not achieved, the Hard MBytes parameter is enforced. This parameter does not need to match the peer gateway.

Setting the Soft Seconds parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec

Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Soft Seconds value. The value can be configured between 60 and 1,000,000 seconds. This parameter does not need to match the peer gateway.

Setting the Hard MBytes parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec

Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Hard MByte value.

The value can be configured between 1 and 1,000,000 MB and refers to data traffic passed. This parameter does not need to match the peer gateway.

Setting the Hard Seconds parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec

Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Hard Seconds value. The value can be configured between 60 and 1,000,000 seconds This parameter does not need to match the peer gateway.

Some ISPs require a setting of e.g. 1492 (or other value). The default

1500 is the most common and you usually don’t need to change this unless other wise instructed. Accepted values are from 100 – 1500.

This is the star ting value that is used for the MTU when the IPSec tunnel is installed. It specifies the maximum IP packet length for the encapsulated

AH or ESP packets sent by the router. The MTU used on the IPSec connection will be automatically adjusted based on the MTU value in any received

ICMP can't fragment error messages that correspond to IPSec traffic initiated from the router. Normally the MTU only requires manual configuration if the ICMP error messages are blocked or other wise not received by the router.

Stateful Inspection

All computer operating systems are vulnerable to attack from outside sources, typically at the operating system or Internet Protocol (IP) layers. Stateful Inspection firewalls intercept and analyze incoming data packets to determine whether they should be admitted to your private LAN, based on multiple criteria, or blocked. Stateful inspection improves security by tracking data packets over a period of time, examining incoming and outgoing packets. Outgoing packets that request specific types of incoming packets are tracked; only those incoming packets constituting a proper response are allowed through the firewall.

Stateful inspection is a security feature that prevents unsolicited inbound access when

NAT is disabled. You can configure UDP and TCP “no-activity” periods that will also apply to

NAT time-outs if stateful inspection is enabled on the inter face. Stateful Inspection parameters are active on a WAN inter face only if enabled on your Gateway. Stateful inspection can be enabled on a WAN inter face whether NAT is enabled or not.

Stateful Inspection Options

Stateful Inspection Parameters are active on a WAN inter face only if you enable them on your Gateway.

Stateful Inspection: To enable stateful inspection on this WAN inter face, check the checkbox.

Default Mapping to Router: This is disabled by default. This option will allow the router to respond to traffic received on this inter face, for example, ICMP Echo requests.

NOTE:

If Stateful Inspection is enabled on a WAN inter face

Default Mapping to

Router must be enabled to allow inbound VPN terminations to the router.

TCP Sequence Number Difference: Enter a value in this field. This value represents the maximum sequence number difference allowed between subsequent TCP packets.

If this number is exceeded, the packet is dropped. The acceptable range is 0 – 65535.

A value of 0 (zero) disables this check.

Firewall Tutorial

General firewall terms

Note:

Breakwater Basic Firewall (see “BreakWater Basic Firewall” on page 149

) does not make use of the packet filter suppor t and can be used in addition to filtersets

Filter rule: A filter set is comprised of individual filter rules.

Filter set: A grouping of individual filter rules.

Firewall: A component or set of components that restrict access between a protected network and the Internet, or between two networks.

Host: A workstation on the network.

Packet: Unit of communication on the Internet.

Packet filter: Packet filters allow or deny packets based on source or destination IP addresses, TCP or UDP por ts.

Port: A number that defines a particular type of service.

Basic IP packet components

All IP packets contain the same basic header information, as follows:

Source IP Address

Destination IP Address

Firewall Tutorial

Protocol

DATA

TCP

User Data

This header information is what the packet filter uses to make filtering decisions. It is impor tant to note that a packet filter does not look into the IP data stream (the User Data from above) to make filtering decisions.

Basic protocol types

TCP: Transmission Control Protocol. TCP provides reliable packet delivery and has a retransmission mechanism (so packets are not lost). RFC 793 is the specification for TCP.

UDP: User Datagram Protocol. Unlike TCP, UDP does not guarantee reliable, sequenced packet deliver y. If data does not reach its destination, UDP does not retransmit the data.

RFC 768 is the specification for UDP.

There are many more por ts defined in the Assigned Addresses RFC. The table that follows shows some of these por t assignments.

Firewall design rules

There are two basic rules to firewall design:

“What is not explicitly allowed is denied.” and

“What is not explicitly denied is allowed.”

The first rule is far more secure, and is the best approach to firewall design. It is far easier

(and more secure) to allow in or out only cer tain ser vices and deny anything else. If the other rule is used, you would have to figure out ever ything that you want to disallow, now and in the future.

Firewall Logic

Firewall design is a test of logic, and filter rule ordering is critical. If a packet is for warded through a series of filter rules and then the packet matches a rule, the appropriate action is taken. The packet will not for ward through the remainder of the filter rules.

For example, if you had the following filter set...

Allow WWW access;

Allow FTP access;

Allow SMTP access;

Deny all other packets.

Firewall Tutorial

and a packet goes through these rules destined for FTP, the packet would for ward through the first rule (WWW), go through the second rule (FTP), and match this rule; the packet is allowed through.

If you had this filter set for example....

Allow WWW access;

Allow FTP access;

Deny FTP access;

Deny all other packets.

and a packet goes through these rules destined for FTP, the packet would for ward through the first filter rule (WWW), match the second rule (FTP), and the packet is allowed through.

Even though the next rule is to deny all FTP traffic, the FTP packet will never make it to this rule.

Implied rules

With a given set of filter rules, there is an Implied rule that may or may not be shown to the user. The implied rule tells the filter set what to do with a packet that does not match any of the filter rules. An example of implied rules is as follows:

Implied Meaning

Y+Y+Y=N If all filter rules are YES, the implied rule is NO.

N+N+N=Y If all filter rules are NO, the implied rule is YES.

Y+N+Y=N If a mix of YES and NO filters, the implied rule is NO.

173

174

Example filter set page

This is an example of the Netopia filter set page:

Security should be a high priority for anyone administering a network connected to the

Internet. Using packet filters to control network communications can greatly improve your network’s security. The Packet Filter engine allows creation of a maximum of eight Filter

Sets. Each Filter Set can consist of many rules. There can be a maximum of 32 filter rules in the system.

WARNING:

Before attempting to configure filters and filter sets, please read and understand this entire section thoroughly. Netopia Gateways incorporating NAT have advanced security features built in. Improperly adding filters and filter sets increases the possibility of loss of communication with the Gateway and the

Internet. Never attempt to configure filters unless you are local to the Gateway.

Although using filter sets can enhance network security, there are disadvantages:

• Filters are complex. Combining them in filter sets introduces subtle interactions, increasing the likelihood of implementation errors.

• Enabling a large number of filters can have a negative impact on per formance. Processing of packets will take longer if they have to go through many checkpoints in addition to NAT.

• Too much reliance on packet filters can cause too little reliance on other security methods. Filter sets are

not

a substitute for password protection, effective safeguarding of passwords, and general awareness of how your network may be vulnerable.

Netopia Firmware Version 7.7’s packet filters are designed to provide security for the Internet connections made to and from your network. You can customize the Gateway’s filter sets for a variety of packet filtering applications. Typically, you use filters to selectively admit or refuse TCP/IP connections from cer tain remote networks and specific hosts. You

Firewall Tutorial

will also use filters to screen par ticular types of connections. This is commonly called

firewalling

your network.

Before creating filter sets, you should read the next few sections to learn more about how these power ful security tools work.

What’s a filter and what’s a filter set?

A filter is a rule that lets you specify what sor t of data can flow in and out of your network.

A par ticular filter can be either an input filter—one that is used on data (packets) coming in to your network from the Internet—or an output filter—one that is used on data (packets) going out from your network to the Internet.

A filter set is a group of filters that work together to check incoming or outgoing data. A filter set can consist of a combination of input and output filters.

How filter sets work

A filter set acts like a team of customs inspectors. Each filter is an inspector through which incoming and outgoing packages must pass. The inspectors work as a team, but each inspects ever y package individually.

Each inspector has a specific task. One inspector’s task may be to examine the destination address of all outgoing packages. That inspector looks for a cer tain destination— which could be as specific as a street address or as broad as an entire countr y—and checks each package’s destination address to see if it matches that destination.

A filter inspects data packets like a customs inspector scrutinizing packages.

packet

Continuing the customs inspectors analogy, imagine the inspectors lined up to examine a package. If the package matches the first inspector’s criteria, the package is either rejected or passed on to its destination, depending on the first inspector’s par ticular orders. In this case, the package is never seen by the remaining inspectors.

If the package does not match the first inspector’s criteria, it goes to the second inspector, and so on. You can see that the order of the inspectors in the line is ver y impor tant.

yes for ward or discard?

(delete)

For example, let’s say the first inspector’s orders are to send along all packages that come from Rome, and the second inspector’s orders are to reject all packages that come from France. If a package arrives from Rome, the first inspector sends it along without allowing the second inspector to see it. A package from Paris is ignored by the first inspector, rejected by the second inspector, and never seen by the others. A package from London is ignored by the first two inspectors, so it’s seen by the third inspector.

to network

In the same way, filter sets apply their filters in a par ticular order. The first filter applied can for ward or discard a packet before that packet ever reaches any of the other filters. If the first filter can neither for ward nor discard the packet (because it cannot match any criteria), the second filter has a chance to for ward or reject it, and so on. Because of this hierarchical structure, each filter is said to have a priority. The first filter has the highest priority, and the last filter has the lowest priority.

How individual filters work

As described above, a filter applies criteria to an IP packet and then takes one of three actions:

For wards the packet to the local or remote network

Blocks (discards) the packet

Ignores the packet

A filter for wards or blocks a packet only if it finds a match after applying its criteria. When no match occurs, the filter ignores the packet.

Firewall Tutorial

A filtering rule

The criteria are based on information contained in the packets. A filter is simply a rule that prescribes cer tain actions based on cer tain conditions. For example, the following rule qualifies as a filter:

“Block all Telnet attempts that originate from the remote host 199.211.211.17.”

This rule applies to Telnet packets that come from a host with the IP address

199.211.211.17. If a match occurs, the packet is blocked.

Here is what this rule looks like when implemented as a filter in

Netopia Firmware Version 7.7:

To understand this par ticular filter, look at the par ts of a filter.

Parts of a filter

A filter consists of criteria based on packet attributes. A typical filter can match a packet on any one of the following attributes:

The source IP address and subnet mask (where the packet was sent from)

The destination IP address and subnet mask (where the packet is going)

The TOS bit setting of the packet. Cer tain types of IP packets, such as voice or multimedia packets, are sensitive to delays introduced by the network. A delay-sensitive packet is identified by a special low-latency setting called the TOS bit. It is impor tant for such packets to be received rapidly or the quality of ser vice degrades.

The type of higher-layer Internet protocol the packet is carr ying, such as TCP or UDP

181

182

Port numbers

A filter can also match a packet’s por t number attributes, but only if the filter’s protocol type is set to TCP or UDP, since only those protocols use por t numbers. The filter can be configured to match the following:

The source por t number (the por t on the sending host that originated the packet)

The destination por t number (the por t on the receiving host that the packet is destined for)

By matching on a por t number, a filter can be applied to selected TCP or UDP ser vices, such as Telnet, FTP, and World Wide Web. The following tables show a few common services and their associated por t numbers:

Port number comparisons

A filter can also use a comparison option to evaluate a packet’s source or destination por t number. The comparison options are:

No Compare: No comparison of the port number specified in the filter with the packet’s por t number.

Not Equal To: For the filter to match, the packet’s port number cannot equal the port number specified in the filter.

Firewall Tutorial

Less Than: For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be less than the port number specified in the filter.

Less Than or Equal: For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be less than or equal to the por t number specified in the filter.

Equal: For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must equal the port number specified in the filter.

Greater Than: For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be greater than the por t number specified in the filter.

Greater Than or Equal: For the filter to match, the packet’s port number must be greater than or equal to the por t number specified in the filter.

Other filter attributes

There are three other attributes to each filter:

The filter’s order (i.e., priority) in the filter set

Whether the filter is currently active

Whether the filter is set to for ward packets or to block (discard) packets

Putting the parts together

When you display a filter set, its filters are displayed as rows in a table:

The table’s columns correspond to each filter’s attributes:

#: The filter’s priority in the set. Filter number 1, with the highest priority, is first in the table.

183

Fwd: Shows whether the filter forwards (Yes) a packet or discards (No) it when there’s a match.

Src-IP: The packet source IP address to match.

Src-Mask: The packet source subnet mask to match.

Dst-IP: The packet destination IP address to match.

Dst-Mask: The packet destination IP address to match.

Protocol: The protocol to match. This can be entered as a number (see the table below) or as TCP or UDP if those protocols are used.

Filtering example #1

Returning to our filtering rule example from above (see

page 181 ), look at how a rule is

translated into a filter. Star t with the rule, then fill in the filter’s attributes:

The rule you want to implement as a filter is:

“Block all Telnet attempts that originate from the remote host 199.211.211.17.”

The host 199.211.211.17 is the source of the Telnet packets you want to block, while the destination address is any IP address. How these IP addresses are masked determines what the final match will be, although the mask is not displayed in the table that displays the filter sets (you set it when you create the filter). In fact, since the mask for the destination IP address is 0.0.0.0, the address for Destination IP address could have been anything. The mask for Source IP address must be 255.255.255.255 since an exact match is desired.

Firewall Tutorial

• Source IP Address = 199.211.211.17

• Source IP address mask = 255.255.255.255

• Destination IP Address = 0.0.0.0

• Destination IP address mask = 0.0.0.0

Using the tables on

page 182 , find the destination por t and protocol numbers (the local

Telnet por t):

• Protocol = TCP (or 6)

• Destination Por t = 23

The filter should be enabled and instructed to block the Telnet packets containing the source address shown in step 2:

• For ward = unchecked

This four-step process is how we produced the following filter from the original rule:

185

Filtering example #2

Suppose a filter is configured to block all incoming IP packets with the source IP address of

200.233.14.0, regardless of the type of connection or its destination. The filter would look like this:

186

This filter blocks any packets coming from a remote network with the IP network address

200.233.14.0. The 0 at the end of the address signifies any host on the class C IP network 200.233.14.0. If, for example, the filter is applied to a packet with the source IP address 200.233.14.5, it will block it.

In this case, the mask, must be set to 255.255.255.0. This way, all packets with a source address of 200.233.14.x will be matched correctly, no matter what the final address byte is.

Note:

The protocol attribute for this filter is Any by default. This tells the filter to ignore the IP protocol or type of IP packet.

Firewall Tutorial

Design guidelines

Careful thought must go into designing a new filter set. You should consider the following guidelines:

Be sure the filter set’s overall purpose is clear from the beginning. A vague purpose can lead to a faulty set, and that can actually make your network less secure.

Be sure each individual filter’s purpose is clear.

Determine how filter priority will affect the set’s actions. Test the set (on paper) by determining how the filters would respond to a number of different hypothetical packets.

Consider the combined effect of the filters. If ever y filter in a set fails to match on a particular packet, the packet is:

• For warded if all the filters are configured to discard (not for ward)

• Discarded if all the filters are configured to for ward

• Discarded if the set contains a combination of for ward and discard filters

An approach to using filters

The ultimate goal of network security is to prevent unauthorized access to the network without compromising authorized access. Using filter sets is par t of reaching that goal.

Each filter set you design will be based on one of the following approaches:

That which is not expressly prohibited is permitted.

That which is not expressly permitted is prohibited.

It is strongly recommended that you take the latter, and safer, approach to all of your filter set designs.

The sections below explain how to execute these steps.

Adding a filter set

You can create up to eight different custom filter sets. Each filter set can contain up to 16 output filters and up to 16 input filters. There can be a maximum of 32 filter rules in the system.

To add a new filter set, click the

Add

button in the Filter Sets page. The Add Filter Set page appears.

Working with IP Filters and Filter Sets

Enter new name for the filter set, for example Filter Set 1.

To save the filter set, click the

button. The saved filter set is empty (contains no filters), but you can return to it later to add filters (see “

Adding filters to a filter set”

).

NOTE:

As you begin to build a filter set, and as you add filters, after your first entr y, the Aler t icon will appear in the upper right corner of the web page. It will remain until all of your changes are entered and validated. You need not immediately restar t the Gateway until your filter set is complete. See

“Associating a

Filter Set with an Inter face” on page 194 .

Adding filters to a filter set

There are two kinds of filters you can add to a filter set: input and output. Input filters check packets received from the Internet, destined for your network. Output filters check packets transmitted from your network to the Internet.

Packets in Netopia Firmware Version 7.7 pass through an input filter if they originate from the WAN and through an output filter if they’re being sent out to the WAN.

The process for adding input and output filters is exactly the same. The main difference between the two involves their reference to source and destination. From the perspective of an input filter, your local network is the destination of the packets it checks, and the remote network is their source. From the perspective of an output filter, your local network is the source of the packets, and the remote network is their destination.

Policy-based Routing using Filtersets

Policy-based Routing using Filtersets

Netopia Firmware Version 7.7 offers the ability to route IP packets using criteria other than the destination IP address. This is called policy-based routing.

You specify the routing criteria and routing information by using IP filtersets to determine the for warding action of a par ticular filter.

You specify a gateway IP address, and each packet matching the filter is routed according to that gateway address, rather than by means of the global routing table.

In addition, the classifier list in a filter includes the TOS field. This allows you to filter on

TOS field settings in the IP packet, if you want.

To use the policy-based routing feature, you create a filter that for wards the traffic.

Check the

Forward checkbox. This will display the Force Routing options.

Check the Force Route checkbox.

Enter the

Gateway IP address in standard dotted-quad notation to which the traffic should be for warded.

You can enter Source and Destination IP

Address(es) and Mask(s), Protocol Type, and

Source and Destination Port ID(s) for the filter, if desired.

TOS field matching

Netopia Firmware Version 7.7 includes two parameters for an IP filter: TOS and TOS

Mask. Both fields accept values in the range 0

– 255.

Cer tain types of IP packets, such as voice or multimedia packets, are sensitive to latency introduced by the network. A delay-sensitive packet is one that has the low-latency bit set in the TOS field of the IP header. This means that if such packets are not received rapidly, the quality of ser vice degrades. If you expect to route significant amounts of such traffic you can configure your router to route this type of traffic to a gateway other than your normal gateway using this feature.

The TOS field matching check is consistent with source and destination address matching.

197

If you check the

Idle Reset checkbox, a match on this rule will keep the WAN connection alive by resetting the idle-timeout status.

The Idle Reset setting is used to determine if a packet which matches the filter will cause an “instant-on” link to connect, if it is down; or reset its idle timer, if it is already up. For example, if you wanted ping traffic not to keep the link up, you would create a filter which for wards a ping, but with the Idle Reset checkbox unchecked.

Example: You want packets with the TOS low latency bit to go through VC 2 (via gateway

127.0.0.3 – the Netopia Gateway will use

127.0.0.x, where x is the WAN por t + 1) instead of your normal gateway.

You would set up the filter as shown here.

198

NOTE:

Default Forwarding Filter

If you create one or more filters that have a matching action of for ward, then action on a packet matching none of the filters is to block any traffic.

Therefore, if the behavior you want is to force the routing of a cer tain type of packet and pass all others through the normal routing mechanism, you must

Policy-based Routing using Filtersets

configure one filter to match the first type of packet and apply Force Routing. A subsequent filter is required to match and for ward all other packets.

Management IP traffic

If the Force Routing filter is applied to source IP addresses, it may inadver tently block communication with the router itself. You can avoid this by preceding the Force Routing filter with a filter that matches the destination IP address of the Gateway itself.

Timestamp Background

During bootup, to provide better log information and to suppor t improved troubleshooting, a Netopia Gateway acquires the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) reference signal, and then adjusts it for your local time zone.

Once per hour, the Gateway attempts to re-acquire the NIST reference, for re-synchronization or initial acquisition of the UTC information. Once acquired, all subsequent log entries display this date and time information. UTC provides the equivalent of Greenwich Mean

Time (GMT) information.

If the WAN connection is not enabled (or NTP has been disabled), the internal clocking function of the Gateway provides log timestamps based on “uptime” of the unit.

You can obtain advanced product functionality by employing a software Feature Key. Software feature keys are specific to a Gateway's serial number. Once the feature key is installed and the Gateway is restar ted, the new feature's functionality becomes enabled.

Use Netopia Software Feature Keys

Netopia Gateway users obtain advanced product functionality by installing a software fea-

ture key. This concept utilizes a specially constructed and distributed keycode (referred to as a feature key) to enable additional capability within the unit.

Software feature key proper ties are specific to a unit’s serial number; they will not be accepted on a platform with another serial number.

Once installed, and the Gateway restar ted, the new feature’s functionality becomes available. This allows full access to configuration, operation, maintenance and administration of the new enhancement.

Obtaining Software Feature Keys

Contact Netopia or your Ser vice Provider to acquire a Software Feature Key.

Procedure - Install a New Feature Key File

With the appropriate feature keycode, use the steps listed below to enable a new function.

Install Certificate

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for transmitting private information over the Internet. SSL uses two keys to encr ypt data: a public key known to ever yone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message.

Netopia Firmware Version 7.7 uses SSL cer tificates for TR-069 suppor t.

SSL cer tificates are issued by trusted Cer tification Authorities (CAs). The CA digitally signs each cer tificate. Each client contains a list of trusted CAs. When an SSL handshake between a ser ver and your Gateway occurs, the client verifies that the ser ver cer tificate was issued by a trusted CA. If the CA is not trusted, a warning will appear. Cer tificates installed in your Gateway and ser vers to which it connects verify to each other that communications between them are encr ypted and private.

Cer tificates are purchased from an issuing Cer tificate Authority, usually by your corporate

IT depar tment or other ser vice provider, and provided to users for secure communications.

You must obtain a cer tificate file before you can install it.

CHAPTER 5 Advanced Troubleshooting

Advanced Troubleshooting can be accessed from the Gateway’s Web UI. Point your browser to

http://192.168.1.254

. The main page displays the device status. (If this does not make the Web UI appear, then do a release and renew in Windows networking to see what the Gateway address really is.)

231

Home Page

The home page displays basic information about the Gateway. This includes the ISP Username, Connection Status, Device Address, Remote Gateway Address, DNS-1, and DNS-2.

If you are not able to connect to the Internet, verify the following:

232

Item Description

Local WAN IP Address

This is the negotiated address of the Gateway’s WAN inter face. This address is usually dynamically assigned.

Remote Gateway

Description

‘Waiting for DSL’ is displayed while the Gateway is training. This should change to ‘Up’ within two minutes. If not, make sure an RJ-11 cable is used, the Gateway is connected to the correct wall jack, and the Gateway is not plugged into a micro filter.

‘No Connection’ is displayed if the Gateway has trained but failed the

PPPoE login. This usually means an invalid user name or password.

Go to Exper t Mode and change the PPPoE name and password.

‘Up’ is displayed when the ADSL line is synched and the PPPoE (or other connection method) session is established.

‘Down’ is displayed if the line connection fails.

This should be the valid PPPoE username. If not, go to Exper t Mode and change to the correct username.

This is the negotiated address of the Gateway’s WAN inter face.

This address is often dynamically assigned. Make sure this is a valid address.

If this is not the correct assigned address, go to Exper t Mode and verify the PPPoE address has not been manually assigned.

This is the negotiated address of the remote router. Make sure this is a valid address.

If this is not the correct address, go to Exper t Mode and verify the address has not been manually assigned.

These are the negotiated DNS addresses. Make sure they are valid

DNS addresses. (Secondar y DNS is optional, and may validly be blank

(0.0.0.0).)

If these are not the correct addresses, go to Exper t Mode and verify the addresses have not been manually assigned.

This is the unique serial number of your Gateway.

(if so equipped; not available on 3342/3342N/3352/3352N) This is the status of your Ethernet connection. If you are connecting via Ethernet, it should be Up.

This is the status of your USB connection (if equipped). If you are connecting via USB, it should be Up.

This is the version number of the current embedded software in your

Gateway.

This is the date that your Gateway was installed and enabled.

Network Tools

Three test tools are available from this page.

NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.

Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by sending an ICMP echo request and waiting for a reply.

TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number of hops and the router addresses of these hops.

242

1.

To use the NSLookup capability, type an address (domain name or IP address) in the text box and click the

NSLookup

button

Example: Show the IP Address for grosso.com.

Server : controller2.netopia.com

Address : 143.137.137.9

Name : www.grosso.com

CHAPTER 6 Command Line Interface

The Netopia Gateway operating software includes a command line inter face (CLI) that lets you access your Netopia Gateway over a telnet connection. You can use the command line inter face to enter and update the unit’s configuration settings, monitor its per formance, and restar t it.

This chapter covers the following topics:

“Over view” on page 248

“Star ting and Ending a CLI Session” on page 250

“Using the CLI Help Facility” on page 251

Starting and Ending a CLI Session

Open a telnet connection from a workstation on your network.

You initiate a telnet connection by issuing the following command from an IP host that suppor ts telnet, for example, a personal computer running a telnet application such as NCSA

Telnet.

telnet <ip_address>

You must know the IP address of the Netopia Gateway before you can make a telnet connection to it. By default, your Netopia Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as the IP address for its LAN inter face. You can use a Web browser to configure the Netopia Gateway IP address.

Logging In

The command line inter face log-in process emulates the log-in process for a UNIX host. To logon, enter the username (either admin or user), and your password.

Entering the administrator password lets you display and update all Netopia Gateway settings.

Entering a user password lets you display (but not update) Netopia Gateway settings.

When you have logged in successfully, the command line inter face lists the username and the security level associated with the password you entered in the diagnostic log.

Using the CLI Help Facility

Ending a CLI Session

You end a command line inter face session by typing

quit

from the SHELL node of the command line inter face hierarchy.

Saving Settings

In CONFIG mode, the save command saves the working copy of the settings to the Gateway. The Gateway automatically validates its settings when you save and displays a warning message if the configuration is not correct.

Using the CLI Help Facility

The help command lets you display on-line help for SHELL and CONFIG commands. To display a list of the commands available to you from your current location within the command line inter face hierarchy, enter

help

.

To obtain help for a specific CLI command, type

help <command>

. You can truncate the

help

command to

h

or a question mark when you request help for a CLI command.

About SHELL Commands

You begin in SHELL mode when you star t a CLI session. SHELL mode lets you per form the following tasks with your Netopia Gateway:

Monitor its per formance

Display and reset Gateway statistics

Issue administrative commands to restar t Netopia Gateway functions

SHELL Prompt

When you are in SHELL mode, the CLI prompt is the name of the Netopia Gateway followed by a right angle bracket (>). For example, if you open a CLI connection to the Netopia Gateway named “Netopia-3000/9437188,” you would see

Netopia-3000/9437188>

as your

CLI prompt.

251

252

SHELL Command Shortcuts

You can

truncate most commands in the CLI to their shortest unique string. For example, you can use the truncated command

q

in place of the full

quit

command to exit the CLI.

However, you would need to enter

rese

for the

reset

command, since the first characters of

reset

are common to the

restart

command.

The only commands you cannot truncate are

restart

and

clear

. To prevent accidental interruption of communications, you must enter the

restart

and

clear

commands in their entirety.

You can use the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll backward and for ward through recent commands you have entered. Alternatively, you can use the

!!

command to repeat the last command you entered.

SHELL Commands

Common Commands arp

nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn

Sends an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request to match the nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn IP address to an Ethernet hardware address.

clear [yes]

Clears the configuration settings in a Netopia Gateway. If you do not use the optional

yes

qualifier, you are prompted to confirm the

clear

command.

clear_certificate

Removes an SSL cer tificate that has been installed.

clear_log

Erases the log information stored in flash if persistent logging is enabled.

SHELL Commands

configure

Puts the command line inter face into Configure mode, which lets you configure your Netopia Gateway with Config commands. Config commands are described star ting on page

249 .

diagnose

Runs a diagnostic utility to conduct a series of internal checks and loopback tests to verify network connectivity over each inter face on your Netopia Gateway. The console displays the results of each test as the diagnostic utility runs. If one test is dependent on another, the diagnostic utility indents its entr y in the console window. For example, the diagnostic utility indents the Check IP connect to Ethernet (LAN) entr y, since that test will not run if the Check Ethernet LAN Connect test fails.

Each test generates one of the following result codes:

CODE

PASS

FAIL

SKIPPED

PENDING

Description

The test was successful.

The test was unsuccessful.

The test was skipped because a test on which it depended failed, or because the test did not apply to your particular setup or model.

The test timed out without producing a result. Try running the test again.

download [

server_address ] [filename] [confirm]

This command installs a file of configuration parameters into the Netopia Gateway from a

TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) ser ver. The TFTP ser ver must be accessible on your

Ethernet network.

You can include one or more of the following arguments with the download command. If you omit arguments, the console prompts you for this information.

The server_address argument identifies the IP address of the TFTP ser ver from which you want to copy the Netopia Gateway configuration file.

The filename argument identifies the path and name of the configuration file on the

TFTP ser ver.

If you include the optional confirm keyword, the download begins as soon as all information is entered.

253

254

You can also download an SSL cer tificate file from a trusted Cer tification Authority (CA), on platforms that suppor t SSL, as follows:

download [-cert] [ server_address ] [filename] [confirm] install [ server_address] [filename] [confirm]

(Not suppor ted on model 3342/3352)

Downloads a new version of the Netopia Gateway operating software from a TFTP (Trivial

File Transfer Protocol) ser ver, validates the software image, and programs the image into the Netopia Gateway memor y. After you install new operating software, you must restar t the Netopia Gateway.

The server_address argument identifies the IP address of the TFTP ser ver on which your Netopia Gateway operating software is stored. The filename argument identifies the path and name of the operating software file on the TFTP ser ver.

If you include the optional keyword confirm, you will not be prompted to confirm whether or not you want to per form the operation.

license [key]

This command installs a software upgrade key. An upgrade key is a purchased item, based on the serial number of the gateway.

log

message_string

Adds the message in the message_string argument to the Netopia Gateway diagnostic log.

loglevel [ level]

Displays or modifies the types of log messages you want the Netopia Gateway to record. If you enter the

loglevel

command without the optional level argument, the command line inter face displays the current log level setting.

You can enter the

loglevel

command with the level argument to specify the types of diagnostic messages you want to record. All messages with a level number equal to or

SHELL Commands

greater than the level you specify are recorded. For example, if you specify loglevel 3, the diagnostic log will retain high-level informational messages (level 3), warnings (level 4), and failure messages (level 5).

Use the following values for the level argument:

1

or

low

– Low-level informational messages or greater; includes trivial status messages.

2

or

medium

– Medium-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that can help monitor network traffic.

3

or

high

– High-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that may be significant but do not constitute errors.

4

or

warning

– Warnings or greater; includes recoverable error conditions and useful operator information.

5

or

failure –

Failures; includes messages describing error conditions that may not be recoverable.

netstat -i

Displays the IP inter faces for your Netopia Gateway.

netstat -r

Displays the IP routes stored in your Netopia Gateway.

nslookup {

hostname | ip_address }

Per forms a domain name system lookup for a specified host.

The hostname argument is the name of the host for which you want DNS information; for example,

nslookup klaatu

.

The ip_address argument is the IP address, in dotted decimal notation, of the device for which you want DNS information.

ping [-s size] [-c count]{ hostname | ip_address }

Causes the Netopia Gateway to issue a series of ICMP Echo requests for the device with the specified name or IP address.

The hostname argument is the name of the device you want to ping; for example,

ping ftp.netopia.com

.

255

256

The ip_address argument is the IP address, in dotted decimal notation, of the device you want to locate. If a host using the specified name or IP address is active, it returns one or more ICMP Echo replies, confirming that it is accessible from your network.

The

-s

size

argument lets you specify the size of the ICMP packet.

The

-c

count

argument lets you specify the number of ICMP packets generated for the ping request. Values greater than 250 are truncated to 250.

You can use the

ping

command to determine whether a hostname or IP address is already in use on your network. You cannot use the

ping

command to ping the Netopia

Gateway’s own IP address.

quit

Exits the Netopia Gateway command line inter face.

reset arp

Clears the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache on your unit.

reset atm

About CONFIG Commands

About CONFIG Commands

You reach the configuration mode of the command line inter face by typing

configure

(or any truncation of

configure

, such as

con

or

config

) at the CLI SHELL prompt.

CONFIG Mode Prompt

When you are in CONFIG mode, the CLI prompt consists of the name of the Netopia Gateway followed by your current node in the hierarchy and two right angle brackets (>>). For example, when you enter CONFIG mode (by typing

config

at the SHELL prompt), the

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

prompt reminds you that you are at the top of the CONFIG hierarchy. If you move to the

ip

node in the CONFIG hierarchy (by typing

ip

at the CONFIG prompt), the prompt changes to

Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>>

to identify your current location.

Some CLI commands are not available until cer tain conditions are met. For example, you must enable IP for an inter face before you can enter IP settings for that inter face.

Navigating the CONFIG Hierarchy

Moving from CONFIG to SHELL — You can navigate from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy back to the SHELL level by entering

quit

at the CONFIG prompt and pressing

R

ETURN

.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

quit

Netopia-3000/9437188 >

Moving from

top

to a subnode — You can navigate from the top node to a subnode by entering the node name (or the significant letters of the node name) at the CONFIG prompt and pressing R

ETURN

. For example, you move to the IP subnode by entering

ip

and pressing R

ETURN

.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

ip

Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>>

As a shor tcut, you can enter the significant letters of the node name in place of the full node name at the CONFIG prompt. The significant characters of a node name are the letters that uniquely identify the node. For example, since no other CONFIG node star ts with b, you could enter one letter (“

b

”) to move to the bridge node.

Jumping down several nodes at once — You can jump down several levels in the

CONFIG hierarchy by entering the complete path to a node.

265

266

Moving up one node — You can move up through the CONFIG hierarchy one node at a time by entering the

up

command.

Jumping to the top node — You can jump to the top level from anywhere in the CON-

FIG hierarchy by entering the

top

command.

Moving from one subnode to another — You can move from one subnode to another by entering a par tial path that identifies how far back to climb.

Moving from any subnode to any other subnode — You can move from any subnode to any other subnode by entering a par tial path that star ts with a top-level CONFIG command.

Scrolling backward and forward through recent commands — You can use the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll backward and for ward through recent commands you have entered. When the command you want appears, press Enter to execute it.

Entering Commands in CONFIG Mode

CONFIG commands consist of keywords and arguments. Keywords in a CONFIG command specify the action you want to take or the entity on which you want to act. Arguments in a

CONFIG command specify the values appropriate to your site. For example, the CONFIG command

set ip ethernet A ip_address

consists of two keywords (

ip

,

and

ethernet A

) and one argument (ip_address).

When you use the command to configure your Gateway, you would replace the argument with a value appropriate to your site.

For example: set ip ethernet A 192.31.222.57

About CONFIG Commands

Guidelines: CONFIG Commands

The following table provides guidelines for entering and formatting CONFIG commands.

Command component

Command verbs

Rules for entering CONFIG commands

Keywords

Argument Text

Numbers

IP addresses

CONFIG commands must start with a command verb (set, view, delete).

You can truncate CONFIG verbs to three characters (set, vie, del).

CONFIG verbs are case-insensitive. You can enter “SET,” “Set,” or “set.”

Keywords are case-insensitive. You can enter “Ethernet,” “ETHERNET,” or

“ethernet” as a keyword without changing its meaning.

Keywords can be abbreviated to the length that they are differentiated from other keywords.

Text strings can be as many as 64 characters long, unless otherwise specified. In some cases they may be as long as 255 bytes.

Special characters are represented using backslash notation.

Text strings may be enclosed in double (“) or single (‘) quote marks. If the text string includes an embedded space, it must be enclosed in quotes.

Special characters are represented using backslash notation.

Enter numbers as integers, or in hexadecimal, where so noted.

Enter IP addresses in dotted decimal notation (0 to 255).

If a command is ambiguous or miskeyed, the CLI prompts you to enter additional information. For example, you must specify which vir tual circuit you are configuring when you are setting up a Netopia Gateway.

Displaying Current Gateway Settings

You can use the

view

command to display the current CONFIG settings for your Netopia

Gateway. If you enter the

view

command at the top level of the CONFIG hierarchy, the CLI displays the settings for all enabled functions. If you enter the

view

command at an intermediate node, you see settings for that node and its subnodes.

Step Mode: A CLI Configuration Technique

The Netopia Gateway command line inter face includes a step mode to automate the process of entering configuration settings. When you use the CONFIG step mode, the command line inter face prompts you for all required and optional information. You can then enter the configuration values appropriate for your site without having to enter complete

CLI commands.

267

268

When you are in step mode, the command line inter face prompts you to enter required and optional settings. If a setting has a default value or a current setting, the command line inter face displays the default value for the command in parentheses. If a command has a limited number of acceptable values, those values are presented in brackets, with each value separated by a ver tical line. For example, the following CLI step command indicates that the default value is

off

and that valid entries are limited to

on

and

off

.

option (off) [on | off]:

on

You can accept the default value for a field by pressing the Return key. To use a different value, enter it and press Return.

You can enter the CONFIG step mode by entering

set

from the top node of the CONFIG hierarchy. You can enter step mode for a par ticular ser vice by entering

set

service_name

.

In stepping set mode (press Control-X <Return/Enter> to exit. For example:

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

set system

...

system

name (“Netopia-3000/9437188”):

Mycroft

Diagnostic Level (High):

medium

Stepping mode ended.

Validating Your Configuration

You can use the

validate

CONFIG command to make sure that your configuration settings have been entered correctly. If you use the

validate

command, the Netopia Gateway verifies that all required settings for all ser vices are present and that settings are consistent.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

validate

Error: Subnet mask is incorrect

Global Validation did not pass inspection!

You can use the

validate

command to verify your configuration settings at any time.

Your Netopia Gateway automatically validates your configuration any time you save a modified configuration.

CONFIG Commands

CONFIG Commands

This section describes the keywords and arguments for the various CONFIG commands.

Remote ATA Configuration Commands

Netopia firmware suppor ts configuration of a maximum of four Netopia ATA profiles, which are stored in the Gateway’s configuration database. When a Netopia ATA is discovered, the

Gateway compares the MAC address of the ATA with one of the existing profiles stored in the database. If there is a match, the configuration is downloaded to the Netopia ATA, and the ATA is restar ted. Once the Netopia ATA is restar ted, it comes up with the newly downloaded configuration.

DSL Commands

ATM Settings.

You can use the CLI to set up each ATM vir tual circuit.

set atm option {on | off }

Enables the WAN inter face of the Netopia Gateway to be configured using the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) protocol.

set atm [vcc n] option {on | off }

Selects the vir tual circuit for which fur ther parameters are set. Up to eight VCCs are suppor ted; the maximum number is dependent on your Netopia Operating System tier and the capabilities that your Ser vice Provider offers.

set atm [vcc n] qos service-class { cbr | ubr | vbr }

Sets the Quality of Ser vice class for the specified vir tual circuit – Constant (cbr), Unspecified (ubr), or Variable (vbr) Bit Rate.

ubr: No configuration is needed for UBR VCs. Leave the default value 0 (maximum line rate).

cbr: One parameter is required for CBR VCs. Enter the Peak Cell Rate that applies to the VC. This value should be between 1 and the line rate. You set this value according to specifications defined by your ser vice provider.

vbr: Three parameters are required for VBR VCs. Enter the Peak Cell Rate, the Sus-

tained Cell Rate, and the Maximum Burst Size that apply to the VC. You set these values according to specifications defined by your ser vice provider.

set atm [vcc n] qos peak-cell-rate { 1 ...n }

If QoS class is set to cbr or vbr then specify the peak-cell-rate that should apply to the specified vir tual circuit. This value should be between 1 and the line rate.

The Peak Cell Rate (PCR) should be set to the maximum rate a PVC can oversubscribe its

Sustained Cell Rate (SCR). The Peak Cell Rate (see below) must be less than, or equal to the raw WAN (DSL) bit rate. The Maximum Burst Size (MBS) is the number of cells that can be sent at the PCR rate, after which the PVC must fall back to the SCR rate.

CONFIG Commands

set atm [vcc n] qos sustained-cell-rate { 1 ...n }

If QoS class is set to vbr, then specify the sustained-cell-rate that should apply to the specified vir tual circuit. This value should be less than, or equal to the Peak Cell Rate, which should be less than, or equal to the line rate.

set atm [vcc n] qos max-burst-size { 1 ...n }

If QoS class is set to

vbr then specify the max-burst-size that should apply to the specified vir tual circuit. This value is the maximum number of cells that can be transmitted at the Peak Cell Rate after which the ATM VC transmission rate must drop to the Sustained

Cell Rate.

set atm [vcc

n] vpi { 0 ... 255 }

Select the vir tual path identifier (vpi) for VCC n.

Your Ser vice Provider will indicate the required vpi number.

set atm [vcc n] vci { 0 ... 65535 }

Select the vir tual channel identifier (vci) for VCC n. Your Ser vice Provider will indicate the required vci number.

set atm [vccn] encap { ppp-vcmux | ppp-llc | ether-llc |

ip-llc | ppoe-vcmux | pppoe-llc }

Select the encapsulation mode for VCC n. The options are: ppp-vcmux ppp-llc ether-llc ip-llc pppoe-vcmux pppoe-llc

Select the number of PPPoE sessions to be configured for VCC 1, up to a total of eight. The total number of pppoe-sessions and PPPoE VCCs configured must be less than or equal to eight.

Bridging Settings

Bridging lets the Netopia Gateway use MAC (Ethernet hardware) addresses to for ward non-

TCP/IP traffic from one network to another. When bridging is enabled, the Netopia Gateway maintains a table of up to 512 MAC addresses. Entries that are not used within 30 seconds are dropped. If the bridging table fills up, the oldest table entries are dropped to make room for new entries.

Vir tual circuits that use IP framing cannot be bridged.

NOTE:

For bridging in the 3341 (or any model with a USB por t), you cannot set the

bridge option off, or bridge ethernet option off; these are on by default because of the USB por t.

Common Commands

set bridge sys-bridge {on | off }

Enables or disables bridging ser vices in the Netopia Gateway. You must enable bridging ser vices within the Netopia Gateway before you can enable bridging for a specific interface.

set bridge concurrent-bridging-routing {on | off }

Enables or disables Concurrent Bridging/Routing.

set bridge dhcp-filterset " string"

Assigns a filterset named

string to the bridge configuration.

CONFIG Commands

NOTE:

A filterset can only be configured for the bridge if the system bridge or concurrent bridging/routing is enabled.

set bridge ethernet option { on | off }

Enables or disables bridging ser vices for the specified vir tual circuit using Ethernet framing.

set bridge dsl vcc n option { on | off }

Enables or disables bridging ser vices for the specified inter face. Specified inter face must be par t of a VLAN if bridge is turned on. Only RFC-1483 Bridged encapsulation is suppor ted currently.

show log command will show that WAN Bridge is enabled when at least one WAN interface is bridged.

show ip interfaces and show bridge interfaces commands will show the inter faces that are not in bridged mode and that are in bridged modes, respectively.

set bridge table-timeout [ 30 ... 6000 ]

Sets the timeout value for bridging table timeout. Default = 30 secs; range = 30 secs –

6000 secs (.5–100 mins).

DHCP Settings

As a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) ser ver, your Netopia Gateway can assign IP addresses and provide configuration information to other devices on your network dynamically. A device that acquires its IP address and other TCP/IP configuration settings from the

Netopia Gateway can use the information for a fixed period of time (called the DHCP lease).

Common Commands

set dhcp option { off | server | relay-agent }

Enables or disables DHCP ser vices in the Netopia Gateway. You must enable DHCP services before you can enter other DHCP settings for the Netopia Gateway.

275

276

If you turn off DHCP ser vices and save the new configuration, the Netopia Gateway clears its DHCP settings.

set dhcp start-address ip_address

If you selected

server

, specifies the first address in the DHCP address range. The Netopia Gateway can reser ve a sequence of up to 253 IP addresses within a subnet, beginning with the specified address for dynamic assignment.

set dhcp end-address

ip_address

If you selected

server

, specifies the last address in the DHCP address range.

set dhcp lease-time lease-time

If you selected

server

, specifies the default length for DHCP leases issued by the Netopia Gateway. Enter lease time in

dd:hh:mm:ss

(day/hour/minute/second) format.

set dhcp server-address ip_address

If you selected

relay-agent

, specifies the IP address of the relay agent ser ver.

set dhcp range [ 2... 8 ] start-address

ip_address

Specifies the star ting IP address of DHCP range

n when subnet n option is on. See “Additional subnets” on page 288 .

set dhcp range [ 2... 8 ] end-address

ip_address

Specifies the ending IP address of DHCP range n when subnet n option is on. See

“Additional subnets” on page 288 .

set dhcp reserved ip-address

x.x.x.x mac-address y-y-y-y-y-y

If you selected

server

, reser ves the specified IP address from the DHCP pool to the specified MAC address. These are list items; a total of 16 reser ved addresses are suppor ted. Secondar y ranges will all make use of the

dhcp lease-time

value.

CONFIG Commands

DHCP Option Filtering

Beginning with Firmware Version 7.7, suppor t for DHCP option filtering is provided via the filterset settings.

set dhcp filterset name " string" rule n dhcp-option [ 0... 255 ]

Creates a DHCP filterset named string, for example “settopbox,” with rule number n.

Up to two filtersets can be added. Your Gateway suppor ts a single LAN DHCP ser ver instance, but an additional filterset is available for use when bridging, to block undesired

DHCP traffic. Up to 8 rules can be created in the filterset, which are evaluated in order.

dhcp-option determines which DHCP option should be compared. A typical value would be to use option 60 data for comparison, but allowing this value to be configured permits more flexibility.

set dhcp filterset name " string" rule n match-action

[ pass | discard | continue ]

Assigns a match action to the filterset. If set to pass the match-pool address is shown.

set dhcp filterset name " string" rule n absent-action

[ pass | discard | continue ]

Assigns an absent action to the filterset. If set to

pass the absent-pool address is hidden.

set dhcp filterset name " string" rule n match-str "match_string*"

Assigns a match string to the filterset. The match-str string will be compared against the

DHCP DISCOVER option data. This string can contain multiple “*” and “?” wildcard substitutions.

set dhcp filterset name " string" rule n match-pool ip_address

Specifies the star t IP address of the range within a DHCP pool where that range will be used to allocate an address if the wildcard matches.

The value 0.0.0.0 means regular processing; 255.255.255.255 means discard.

277

278

set dhcp filterset name " string" rule n absent-pool ip_address

Specifies the star t IP address of the range within a DHCP pool where that range will be used to allocate an address if the option in the DHCP packet is not present.

The value 0.0.0.0 means regular processing; 255.255.255.255 means discard.

Example

Netopia-3000/9450000 (dhcp)>> sc set dhcp option server set dhcp start-address 192.168.1.33

set dhcp end-address 192.168.1.63

CONFIG Commands

DMT Settings

DSL Commands

set dmt type [ lite | dmt | ansi | multi | adsl2 | adsl2+ | readsl2 |

adsl2anxm | adsl2+anxm ]

Selects the type of Discrete Multitone (DMT) asynchronous digital subscriber line (ADSL) protocol to use for the WAN inter face.

The

type value also supports the following settings on certain model units: adsl2,

adsl2+, readsl2, adsl2anxm, adsl2+anxm.

NOTE:

Some dmt type settings are now supported for many Annex B (335xN) platforms. 2200 Series and 33xxN Series models are suppor ted. Currently,

adsl2anxm and adsl2+anxm are not supported in Annex B.

set dmt autoConfig [ off | on ]

Enables suppor t for automatic VPI/VCI detection and configuration. When set to on (the default), a pre-defined list of VPI/VCI pairs are searched to find a valid configuration for your ADSL line. Entering a value for the VPI or VCI setting will disable this feature.

set dmt wiringMode [ auto | tip_ring | A_A1 ]

(not suppor ted on all models) This command configures the wiring mode setting for your

ADSL line. Selecting auto (the default) causes the Gateway to detect which pair of wires

(inner or outer pair) are in use on your phone line. Specifying tip_ring forces the inner pair to be used; and A_A1 the outer pair.

set dmt metallic-termination [ auto | disabled | always_on ]

(not suppor ted on all models) This command allows you to apply a sealing current to “dr y”

DSL lines so that the wiring doesn’t corrode.

279

280

auto - The device will scan for standard telephone service (POTS). If it finds POTS, it disables metallic termination. If it does not find POTS during the search period, then metallic termination is enabled.

disabled - There is no POTS detection, and metallic termination is disabled.

always_on - The device will scan for POTS for information only. Metallic termination is always enabled.

Domain Name System Settings

Domain Name System (DNS) is an information ser vice for TCP/IP networks that uses a hierarchical naming system to identify network domains and the hosts associated with them. You can identify a primar y DNS ser ver and one secondar y ser ver.

Common Commands

set dns domain-name domain-name

Specifies the default domain name for your network. When an application needs to resolve a host name, it appends the default domain name to the host name and asks the DNS ser ver if it has an address for the “fully qualified host name.”

set dns primary-address ip_address

Specifies the IP address of the primar y DNS name ser ver.

set dns proxy-enable

This allows you to disable the default behavior of acting as a DNS proxy. The default is on.

set dns secondary-address

ip_address

Specifies the IP address of the secondar y DNS name ser ver. Enter

0.0.0.0

if your network does not have a secondar y DNS name ser ver.

Dynamic DNS Settings

Dynamic DNS suppor t allows you to use the free ser vices of www.dyndns.org. Dynamic

DNS automatically directs any public Internet request for your computer's name to your current dynamically-assigned IP address. This allows you to get to the IP address assigned to

CONFIG Commands

your Gateway, even though your actual IP address may change as a result of a PPPoE connection to the Internet.

set dynamic-dns option [ off | dyndns.org ] set dynamic-dns ddns-host-name myhostname.dyndns.org

set dynamic-dns ddns-user-name

myusername

set dynamic-dns ddns-user-password

myuserpassword

Enables or disables dynamic DNS ser vices. The default is off. If you specify dyndns.org, you must supply your hostname, username for the ser vice, and password.

Because different dynamic DNS vendors use different proprietar y protocols, currently only www.dyndns.org is suppor ted.

IGMP Settings

NOTE: IGMP Version 3 is suppor ted beginning with Firmware Version 7.7.

See

“IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)” on page 112 for detailed explanation.

You can set the following options:

IGMP Snooping – enables the Netopia Gateway to “listen in” to IGMP traffic. The Gateway discovers multicast group membership for the purpose of restricting multicast transmissions to only those por ts which have requested them. This helps to reduce overall network traffic from streaming media and other bandwidth-intensive IP multicast applications.

Robustness – a way of indicating how sensitive to lost packets the network is. IGMP can recover from robustness minus 1 lost IGMP packet. The default value is 2.

Query Interval– the amount of time in seconds between IGMP General Query messages sent by the querier gateway. The default quer y inter val is 125 seconds.

Query Response Interval – the maximum amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP router waits to receive a response to a General Quer y message. The default quer y response inter val is 10 seconds and must be less than the quer y inter val.

Unsolicited Report Interval – the amount of time in seconds between repetitions of a par ticular computer’s initial repor t of membership in a group. The default unsolicited repor t inter val is 10 seconds.

Querier Version – select a version of the IGMP Querier: version 1, version 2, or version

3. If you know you will be communicating with other hosts that are limited to v1 or v2, for backward compatibility, select accordingly; other wise, allow the default v3.

281

282

NOTE:

IGMP Querier version is relevant only if the router is configured for IGMP forwarding. If any IGMP v1 routers are present on the subnet, the querier must use IGMP v1. The use of IGMP v1 must be administratively configured, since there is no reliable way of dynamically determining whether IGMP v1 routers are present on a network. IGMP for warding is enabled per IP Profile and WAN

Connection Profile.

Last Member Query Interval – the amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP gateway waits to receive a response to a Group-Specific Quer y message. The last member quer y inter val is also the amount of time in seconds between successive Group-

Specific Quer y messages. The default last member quer y inter val is 1 second (10 deciseconds).

Last Member Query Count – the number of Group-Specific Query messages sent before the gateway assumes that there are no members of the host group being queried on this inter face. The default last member quer y count is 2.

Fast Leave – set to off by default, fast leave enables a non-standard expedited leave mechanism. The querier keeps track of which client is requesting which channel by IP address. When a leave message is received, the querier can check its internal table to see if there are any more clients on this group. If there are none, it immediately sends an IGMP leave message to the upstream querier.

set igmp snooping [ off | on ]

Enables IGMP Snooping.

set igmp robustness

value

Sets IGMP robustness range: from 2 – 255. The default is 2.

set igmp query-intvl

value

Sets the quer y-inter val range: from 10 seconds – 600 seconds, The default is 125 seconds.

CONFIG Commands

set igmp query-response-intvl

value

Sets the quer y-response inter val range: from 5 deci-seconds (tenths of a second) – 255 deci-seconds. The default is 100 deci-seconds.

set igmp unsol-report-intvl

value

Sets the unsolicited repor t inter val: the amount of time in seconds between repetitions of a par ticular computer’s initial repor t of membership in a group. The default is 10 seconds.

set igmp version [ 1 | 2 | 3 ]

Sets the IGMP querier version: version 1, version 2, or version 3. If you know you will be communicating with other hosts that are limited to v1, for backward compatibility, select

1; other wise, allow the default

3.

set igmp last-member-query-intvl

value

Sets the last member quer y inter val: the amount of time in tenths of a second that the

IGMP gateway waits to receive a response to a Group-Specific Quer y message. The last member quer y inter val is also the amount of time in seconds between successive Group-

Specific Quer y messages. The default is 1 second (10 deci-seconds).

set igmp last-member-query-count

value

Sets the last member quer y count: the number of Group-Specific Quer y messages sent before the gateway assumes that there are no members of the host group being queried on this inter face. The default is 2.

set igmp fast-leave [ off | on ]

Sets fast leave on or off. Set to off by default, fast leave enables a non-standard expedited leave mechanism. The querier keeps track of which client is requesting which channel by IP address. When a leave message is received, the querier can check its internal table to see if there are any more clients on this group. If there are none, it immediately sends an IGMP leave message to the upstream querier.

IP Settings

You can use the command line inter face to specify whether TCP/IP is enabled, identify a default Gateway, and to enter TCP/IP settings for the Netopia Gateway LAN and WAN por ts.

NOTE:

For the DSL platform you must identify the vir tual PPP inter face [ vccn], a number from 1 to 8.

Common Settings

set ip option { on | off }

Enables or disables TCP/IP ser vices in the Netopia Gateway. You must enable TCP/IP services before you can enter other TCP/IP settings for the Netopia Gateway. If you turn off

TCP/IP ser vices and save the new configuration, the Netopia Gateway clears its TCP/IP settings.

ARP Timeout Settings

set ip arp-timeout [ 60 ... 6000 ]

Sets the timeout value for ARP timeout. Default = 600 secs (10 mins); range = 60 secs -

6000 secs (1–100 mins).

DSL Settings

set ip dsl vccn address

ip_address

Assigns an IP address to the vir tual circuit. Enter 0.0.0.0 if you want the vir tual circuit to obtain its IP address from a remote DHCP ser ver.

set ip dsl vccn broadcast

broadcast_address

Specifies the broadcast address for the TCP/IP network connected to the vir tual circuit. IP hosts use the broadcast address to send messages to ever y host on your network simultaneously.

CONFIG Commands

The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broadcast address for the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.

set ip dsl vccn netmask

netmask

Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the vir tual circuit. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binar y IP address represents network information. The default subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask).

set ip dsl vccn restriction { admin-disabled | none }

Specifies restrictions on the types of traffic the Netopia Gateway accepts over the DSL virtual circuit. The admin-disabled argument means that access to the device via telnet, web, and SNMP is disabled. RIP and ICMP traffic is still accepted. The none argument means that all traffic is accepted.

set ip dsl vccn addr-mapping { on | off }

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when communicating with remote routers. Address mapping lets you conceal details of your network from remote routers. It also permits all LAN devices to share a single IP address. By default, address mapping is turned “On”.

set ip dsl vccn auto-sensing { on | off }

Enables or disables PPPoE/DHCP autosensing on the specified inter face. If you are using

PPPoE, setting this to

on enables automatic sensing of your WAN connection type: PPPoE or DHCP. If this feature is enabled, the gateway attempts to connect using PPPoE first. If the Gateway fails to connect after 60 seconds, it switches to DHCP. As soon as it can connect via DHCP, the Gateway chooses and sets DHCP as its default. Other wise, after attempting to connect via DHCP for 60 seconds, the Gateway switches back to PPPoE. The

Gateway will continue to switch back and for th in this manner until it successfully connects.

set ip dsl vccn mcast-fwd [ on | off }

Enables or disables multi-cast for warding on the specified inter face. If set to

on, this interface acts as an IGMP proxy host, and IGMP packets are transmitted and received on this inter face on behalf of IGMP hosts on the LAN inter face.

285

286

set ip dsl vccn igmp-null-source-addr { on | off }

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to identify the source IP address of ever y

IGMP packet transmitted from this inter face as 0.0.0.0 when mcast-fwd is set to on. This complies with the requirements of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly adver tised

IP address on the WAN inter face.

set ip dsl vccn unnumbered [ on | off }

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to have its WAN inter face unnumbered, i.e. set to 0.

unnumbered option is only available if the address is set to 0 for the interface. Enables or disables unnumbered IP addressing (where an address of 0 is allowed

AND the DHCP client is disabled) on the specified inter face. This setting applies to native

IP as well as PPP inter faces to suppor t running an IPoE inter face without an address.

set ip dsl vccn rip-send { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to adver tise its routing tables to other routers. RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) is an extension of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 suppor ts several additional features, including inclusion of subnet masks in

RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting (which reduces the load on hosts which do not suppor t routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are adver tised.

Depending on your network needs, you can configure your Netopia Gateway to suppor t RIP-

1, RIP-2, or RIP-2MD5.

If you specify

v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.

set ip dsl vccn rip-receive

{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers.

CONFIG Commands

If you specify

v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.

Ethernet LAN Settings

set ip ethernet A option { on | off }

Enables or disables communications through the designated Ethernet por t in the Gateway.

You must enable TCP/IP functions for an Ethernet por t before you can configure its network settings.

set ip ethernet A address

ip_address

Assigns an IP address to the Netopia Gateway on the local area network. The IP address you assign to the local Ethernet inter face must be unique on your network. By default, the

Netopia Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as its LAN IP address.

set ip ethernet A broadcast

broadcast_address

Specifies the broadcast address for the local Ethernet inter face. IP hosts use the broadcast address to send messages to ever y host on your network simultaneously.

The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broadcast address for the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.

set ip ethernet A netmask

netmask

Specifies the subnet mask for the local Ethernet inter face. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binar y IP address represent network information. The default subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask).

set ip ethernet A restrictions { none | admin-disabled }

Specifies whether an administrator can open a telnet connection to a Netopia Gateway over an Ethernet inter face ( A = the LAN) to monitor and configure the unit.

The admin-disabled argument prevents access to the device via telnet, web, and SNMP.

287

288

By default, administrative restrictions are

none on the LAN, but admin-disabled is set on the WAN. This means that, by default, an administrator can open, for example, a telnet connection from the LAN, but not the WAN.

set ip ethernet A rip-send

{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to adver tise its routing tables to other routers on your network. RIP Version 2

(RIP-2) is an extension of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 suppor ts several additional features, including inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting (which reduces the load on hosts which do not suppor t routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are adver tised.

If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.

Depending on your network needs, you can configure your Netopia Gateway to suppor t RIP-

1, RIP-2, or RIP-2MD5.

set ip ethernet A rip-receive { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers on your network.

If you specify

v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.

Additional subnets

See

“DHCP Settings” on page 275 for subnet range configuration commands.

CONFIG Commands

set ip ethernet A subnet [ 2 ... 8 ] option [ on | off ]

Enables or disables additional LAN subnets. Up to seven additional subnets may be configured.

set ip ethernet A subnet n address ip_address

Specifies an IP address for the subnet

n, when subnet n option is on.

set ip ethernet A subnet

n netmask netmask

Specifies the subnet mask for the subnet

n, when subnet n option is on.

Default IP Gateway Settings

set ip gateway option { on | off }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway should send packets to a default Gateway if it does not know how to reach the destination host.

set ip gateway interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn }

Specifies how the Netopia Gateway should route information to the default Gateway. If you select ip-address, you must enter the IP address of a host on a local or remote network.

If you specify ppp, the Netopia unit uses the default gateway being used by the remote

PPP peer.

IP-over-PPP Settings.

Use the following commands to configure settings for routing IP over a vir tual PPP inter face.

NOTE:

For a DSL platform you must identify the vir tual PPP inter face [ vccn], a number from 1 to 8.

289

290

set ip ip-ppp [ vccn] option { on | off }

Enables or disables IP routing through the vir tual PPP inter face. By default, IP routing is turned on. If you turn off IP routing and save the new configuration, the Netopia Gateway clears IP routing settings

set ip ip-ppp [

vccn] address ip_address

Assigns an IP address to the vir tual PPP inter face. If you specify an IP address other than

0.0.0.0, your Netopia Gateway will not negotiate its IP address with the remote peer. If the remote peer does not accept the IP address specified in the ip_address argument as valid, the link will not come up.

The default value for the ip_address argument is 0.0.0.0, which indicates that the virtual PPP inter face will use the IP address assigned to it by the remote peer. Note that the remote peer must be configured to supply an IP address to your Netopia Gateway if you enter 0.0.0.0 for the ip_address argument.

set ip ip-ppp [

vccn] peer-address ip_address

Specifies the IP address of the peer on the other end of the PPP link. If you specify an IP address other than 0.0.0.0, your Netopia Gateway will not negotiate the remote peer's IP address. If the remote peer does not accept the address in the ip_address argument as its IP address (typically because it has been configured with another IP address), the link will not come up.

The default value for the ip_address argument is 0.0.0.0, which indicates that the virtual PPP inter face will accept the IP address returned by the remote peer. If you enter

0.0.0.0, the peer system must be configured to supply this address.

set ip ip-ppp [ vccn] restriction { admin-disabled | none }

Specifies restrictions on the types of traffic the Netopia Gateway accepts over the PPP virtual circuit. The admin-disabled argument means that access to the device via telnet, web, and SNMP is disabled. RIP and ICMP traffic is still accepted. The none argument means that all traffic is accepted.

CONFIG Commands

set ip ip-ppp [ vccn] addr-mapping [ on | off ]

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when communicating with remote routers. Address mapping lets you conceal details of your network from remote routers. It also permits all LAN devices to share a single IP address. By default, address mapping is turned “On”.

set ip ip-ppp [ vccn] auto-sensing [ on | off ]

Enables or disables PPPoE/DHCP autosensing on the specified inter face. If you are using

PPPoE, setting this to

on enables automatic sensing of your WAN connection type: PPPoE or DHCP. If enabled, the Gateway attempts to connect using PPPoE first. If the Gateway fails to connect after a maximum of 60 seconds, it switches to DHCP, if PPPoE is not available. As soon as it can connect via DHCP the Gateway chooses and sets DHCP as its default.

set ip ip-ppp [

vccn] rip-send { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway unit should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to adver tise its routing tables to routers on the other side of the PPP link. An extension of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1), RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) expands the amount of useful information in the packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 suppor ts several new features. For example, inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting.

This last feature reduces the load on hosts which do not suppor t routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are adver tised.

This command is only available when address mapping for the specified vir tual circuit is turned “off”.

If you specify

v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.

291

292

set ip ip-ppp [ vccn] rip-receive { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }

Specifies whether the Netopia Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers on the other side of the PPP link.

If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.

set ip ip-ppp vcc

n igmp-null-source-addr [ on | off ]

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to identify the source IP address of ever y

IGMP packet transmitted from this inter face as 0.0.0.0 when

mcast-fwd is set to on. This complies with the requirements of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly adver tised

IP address on the WAN inter face.

set ip ip-ppp vcc

n mcast-fwd [ on | off ]

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway inter face to act as an IGMP proxy host.

set ip ip-ppp vcc n unnumbered [ on | off ]

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to have its WAN inter face unnumbered, i.e. set to 0.

CONFIG Commands

Static ARP Settings

Your Netopia Gateway maintains a dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table to map

IP addresses to Ethernet (MAC) addresses. Your Netopia Gateway populates this ARP table dynamically, by retrieving IP address/MAC address pairs only when it needs them. Optionally, you can define static ARP entries to map IP addresses to their corresponding Ethernet

MAC addresses. Unlike dynamic ARP table entries, static ARP table entries do not time out.

You can configure as many as 16 static ARP table entries for a Netopia Gateway. Use the following commands to add static ARP entries to the Netopia Gateway static ARP table:

set ip static-arp ip-address

ip_address

Specifies the IP address for the static ARP entr y. Enter an IP address in the ip_address argument in dotted decimal format. The ip_address argument cannot be 0.0.0.0.

set ip static-arp ip-address

ip_address

hardware-address

MAC_address

Specifies the Ethernet hardware address for the static ARP entr y. Enter an Ethernet hardware address in the MAC_address argument in

nn.nn.nn.nn.nn.nn

(hexadecimal) format.

IGMP Forwarding

set ip igmp-forwarding [ off | on ]

Turns IP IGMP for warding off or on. The default is off.

IPsec Passthrough

set ip ipsec-passthrough [ off | on ]

Turns IPsec client passthrough off or on. The default is on.

293

294

IP Prioritization

set ip prioritize [ off | on ]

Allows you to suppor t traffic that has the TOS bit set. This defaults to off.

Differentiated Services (DiffServ)

set diffserv option [ off | on ]

Turns the DiffSer v option off (default) or on. on enables the service and IP TOS bits are used, even if no flows are defined. Consequently, if the end-point nodes provide TOS settings from an application that can be interpreted as one of the suppor ted states, the Gateway will handle it as if it actively marked the TOS field itself.

NOTE:

The Gateway itself will not override TOS bit settings made by the endpoints.

Suppor t for source-provided IP TOS priorities within the Gateway is achieved simply by turning the DiffSer ve option “on” and by setting the lohi-asymmetr y to adjust the behavior of the Gateway’s internal queues.

set diffserv lohi-ratio [ 60 - 100 percent ]

Sets a percentage between 60 and 100 used to regulate the level of packets allowed to be pending in the low priority queue. The default is 92. It can be used in some degree to adjust the relative throughput bandwidth for low- versus high-priority traffic.

NOTE:

diffserv lohi-ratio has been removed for ADI based platforms (VDSL, ADSL bonded units).

CONFIG Commands

set diffserv custom-flows name

name

protocol [ TCP | UDP | ICMP | other ]

direction [ outbound | inbound | both ]

start-port [ 0 - 49151 ]

end-port [ 0 - 49151 ]

inside-ip

inside-ip-addr

inside-ip-mask inside-ip-netmask outside-ip

outside-ip-addr

outside-ip-mask

outside-ip-netmask

qos [ off | assure | expedite ]

Defines or edits a custom flow. Select a

name for the custom-flow from the set command.

The CLI will step into the newly-named or previously-defined flow for editing.

protocol – Allows you to choose the IP protocol for the stream: TCP, UDP, ICMP, or

other.

other is appropriate for setting up flows on protocols with non-standard port definitions, for example, IPSEC or PPTP. If you select

other, an additional field, numbered-proto-

col will appear with a range of 0–255. Choose the protocol number from this field.

direction – Allows you to choose whether to apply the marking and gateway queue behavior for inbound packets, outbound packets, or to both. If the Gateway is used as an “edge” gateway, its more impor tant function is to mark the packets for high-priority streams in the outbound direction.

start-port/end-port – Allows you to specify a range of ports to check for a particular flow, if the protocol selection is TCP or UDP.

inside-ip/mask – If you want packets originating from a certain LAN IP address to be marked, enter the IP address and subnet mask here. If you leave the address equal to zero, this check is ignored for outbound packets. The check is always ignored for inbound packets. The DiffSer ve queuing function must be applied ahead of NAT; and, before NAT re-maps the inbound packets, all inbound packets are destined for the Gateway's WAN IP address.

outside-ip/mask – If you want packets destined for and originating from a certain WAN

IP address to be marked, enter this address and subnet mask here. If you leave the address equal to zero, the outside address check is ignored. For outbound flows, the outside address is the destination IP address for the packets. For inbound packets, the outside address is the source IP address for the packets.

Note:

When setting the Inside/Outside IP Address/Netmask settings, note that a netmask value can be used to configure for a network rather than a single IP address.

295

296

qos – Allows you to specify the Quality of Service for the flow: off, assure, or expedite.

These are used both to mark the IP TOS byte and to distribute packets into the queues as if they were marked by the source.

Packet Mapping Configuration

set diffserv qos [ network-control-queue | expedite-queue |

assured-queue | best-effort-queue ]

queue_name

Specifies the Diffser v QoS queue mapping associations.

By default the following mappings are created: set diffserv qos network-control-queue basic_q0 set diffserv qos expedite-queue basic_q1 set diffserv qos assured-queue basic_q2 set diffserv qos best-effort-queue basic_q3

set diffserv qos dscp-map [ default | custom ]

default – the default DSCP-queue mappings are used

custom – allows you to set up customized mappings between DSCP code points and queue types.

If custom is selected, the following can be configured:

set diffserv qos dscp-map-0

[ best-effort | assured | expedite | network-control ] set diffserv qos dscp-map-1

[ best-effort | assured | expedite | network-control ]

...

set diffserv qos dscp-map-31

Queue Configuration

Beginning with Firmware Version 7.7, the queuing characteristics of a 3397 VDSL series

Gateway’s WAN inter face can now be configured for:

• strict priority queuing (as currently)

• weighted fair queuing

• rate-limiting funnel

Note:

The configuration mechanism is designed to be flexible enough to accommodate complex queuing requirements. However, it may be restricted to the underlying queuing capabilities of the 3397 Gateway. Configurations not suppor ted by the Gateway will be flagged during configuration verification.

You configure the WAN outbound queue as follows:

• create and configure one or more queues, which can be a basic queue or a priority queue comprising a group of basic queues, a weighted fair queue comprising a group of basic queues, or a funnel comprising a group of basic queues;

• assign a queue instance to the Ethernet WAN inter face;

• map packet attributes to a queue.

The same queue name can be assigned to multiple inter faces which require identical queue configuration, however currently the only inter face available for queueing configuration is ethernet 1.

To help you configure queues, and to maintain compatibility with previous firmware releases, several queues are set up automatically on upgrade to Version 7.7, or upon a factor y reset.

CONFIG Commands

set queue name queue_name option [ on | off ]

type [ basic | wfq | priority | funnel ]

Creates a queue named

queue_name and assigns a type:

CONFIG Commands

SIP Passthrough

set ip sip-passthrough [ on | off ]

Turns Session Initiation Protocol application layer gateway client passthrough on or off.

The default is on.

Session Initiation Protocol, is a signaling protocol for Internet conferencing, telephony, presence, events notification and instant messaging.

Static Route Settings

A static route identifies a manually configured pathway to a remote network. Unlike dynamic routes, which are acquired and confirmed periodically from other routers, static routes do not time out. Consequently, static routes are useful when working with PPP, since an intermittent PPP link may make maintenance of dynamic routes problematic.

You can configure as many as 32 static IP routes for a Netopia Gateway. Use the following commands to maintain static routes to the Netopia Gateway routing table:

set ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

Specifies the network address for the static route. Enter a network address in the

net_address

argument in dotted decimal format. The net_address argument cannot be 0.0.0.0.

set ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

netmask

netmask

Specifies the subnet mask for the IP network at the other end of the static route. Enter the

netmask

argument in dotted decimal format. The subnet mask associated with the destination network must represent the same network class (A, B, or C) or a lower class (such as a class C subnet mask for class B network number) to be valid.

303

304

set ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn }

Specifies the inter face through which the static route is accessible.

set ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

gateway-address

gate_address

Specifies the IP address of the Gateway for the static route. The default Gateway must be located on a network connected to the Netopia Gateway configured inter face.

set ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

metric

integer

Specifies the metric (hop count) for the static route. The default metric is 1. Enter a number from 1 to 15 for the integer argument to indicate the number of routers (actual or best guess) a packet must traverse to reach the remote network.

You can enter a metric of 1 to indicate either:

The remote network is one router away and the static route is the best way to reach it;

The remote network is more than one router away but the static route should not be replaced by a dynamic route, even if the dynamic route is more efficient.

set ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

rip-advertise [ SplitHorizon | Always | Never ]

Specifies whether the gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to adver tise to other routers on your network and which mode to use. The default is

SplitHorizon.

delete ip static-routes destination-network

net_address

Deletes a static route. Deleting a static route removes all information associated with that route.

CONFIG Commands

IPMaps Settings set ip-maps name < name> internal-ip <ip address>

Specifies the name and static ip address of the LAN device to be mapped.

set ip-maps name < name> external-ip <ip address>

Specifies the name and static ip address of the WAN device to be mapped.

Up to 8 mapped static IP addresses are suppor ted.

Network Address Translation (NAT) Default Settings

NAT default settings let you specify whether you want your Netopia Gateway to for ward NAT traffic to a default ser ver when it doesn’t know what else to do with it. The NAT default host function is useful in situations where you cannot create a specific NAT pinhole for a traffic stream because you cannot anticipate what por t number an application might use. For example, some network games select arbitrar y por t numbers when a connection is being opened. By identifying your computer (or another host on your network) as a NAT default ser ver, you can specify that NAT traffic that would other wise be discarded by the Netopia

Gateway should be directed to a specific hosts.

set nat-default mode [ off | default-server | ip-passthrough ]

Specifies whether you want your Netopia Gateway to for ward unsolicited traffic from the

WAN to a default ser ver or an IP passthrough host when it doesn’t know what else to do with it. See

“Default Ser ver” on page 99

for more information.

set nat-default dhcp-enable [ on | off ]

Allows the IP passthrough host to acquire its IP address via DHCP, if ip-passthrough is enabled.

set nat-default address

ip_address

Specifies the IP address of the NAT default ser ver.

305

306

set nat-default host-hardware-address MAC_address }

Specifies the hardware (MAC) address of the IP passthrough host. If the MAC address is specified as all-zeroes, the first DHCP client that requests an IP address gets the passthrough address.

Network Address Translation (NAT) Pinhole Settings

NAT pinholes let you pass specific types of network traffic through the NAT inter faces on the Netopia Gateway. NAT pinholes allow you to route selected types of network traffic, such as FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections, to a specific host behind the Netopia

Gateway transparently.

To set up NAT pinholes, you identify the type(s) of traffic you want to redirect by por t number, and you specify the internal host to which each specified type of traffic should be directed.

The following list identifies protocol type and por t number for common TCP/IP protocols:

FTP (TCP 21)

• telnet (TCP 23)

SMTP (TCP 25),

TFTP (UDP 69)

SNMP (TCP 161, UDP 161)

set pinhole name

name

Specifies the identifier for the entr y in the router's pinhole table. You can name pinhole table entries sequentially (1, 2, 3), by por t number (21, 80, 23), by protocol, or by some other naming scheme.

set pinhole name name protocol-select { tcp | udp }

Specifies the type of protocol being redirected.

set pinhole name name external-port-start [ 0 - 49151 ]

Specifies the first por t number in the range being translated.

CONFIG Commands

set pinhole name name external-port-end [ 0 - 49151 ]

Specifies the last por t number in the range being translated.

set pinhole name name internal-ip internal-ip

Specifies the IP address of the internal host to which traffic of the specified type should be transferred.

set pinhole name name internal-port [ 0 - 65535 ]

Specifies the por t number your Netopia Gateway should use when for warding traffic of the specified type. Under most circumstances, you would use the same number for the external and internal por t.

PPPoE /PPPoA Settings

You can use the following commands to configure basic settings, por t authentication settings, and peer authentication settings for PPP inter faces on your Netopia Gateway.

Configuring Basic PPP Settings.

NOTE:

For the DSL platform you must identify the vir tual PPP inter face [ vccn], a number from 1 to 8.

set ppp module [vccn] option { on | off }

Enables or disables PPP on the Netopia Gateway.

set ppp module [vccn] auto-connect { on | off }

Suppor ts manual mode required for some vendors. The default on is not normally changed. If auto-connect is disabled ( off), you must manually start/stop a ppp connection.

307

308

set ppp module [vccn] mru

integer

Specifies the Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) for the PPP inter face. The integer argument can be any number between 128 and 1492 for PPPoE; 1500 other wise.

set ppp module [vccn] magic-number { on | off }

Enables or disables LCP magic number negotiation.

set ppp module [vccn] protocol-compression { on | off }

Specifies whether you want the Netopia Gateway to compress the PPP Protocol field when it transmits datagrams over the PPP link.

set ppp module [vccn] lcp-echo-requests { on | off }

Specifies whether you want your Netopia Gateway to send LCP echo requests. You should turn off LCP echoing if you do not want the Netopia Gateway to drop a PPP link to a nonresponsive peer.

set ppp module [vccn] echo-period

integer

Specifies the number of seconds the Netopia Gateway should wait before sending another echo from an LCP echo request. The integer argument can be any number from between 5 and 300 (seconds).

set ppp module [vccn] lost-echoes-max

integer

Specifies the maximum number of lost echoes the Netopia Gateway should tolerate before bringing down the PPP connection. The integer argument can be any number from between

1 and 20.

set ppp module [vccn] failures-max

integer

Specifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the PPP module can send without having sent a Configure-ACK message. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20.

CONFIG Commands

set ppp module [vccn] configure-max

integer

Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration requests that your Netopia Gateway will send. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20.

set ppp module [vccn] terminate-max

integer

Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination requests that your Netopia

Gateway will send before terminating the PPP link. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 10.

set ppp module [vccn] restart-timer

integer

Specifies the number of seconds the Netopia Gateway should wait before retransmitting a configuration or termination request. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 30.

set ppp module [vccn] connection-type

{ instant-on | always-on }

Specifies whether a PPP connection is maintained by the Netopia Gateway when it is unused for extended periods. If you specify always-on, the Netopia Gateway never shuts down the PPP link. If you specify instant-on, the Netopia Gateway shuts down the PPP link after the number of seconds specified in the time-out setting (below) if no traffic is moving over the circuit.

set ppp module [vccn] time-out

integer

If you specified a connection type of instant-on, specifies the number of seconds, in the range 30 - 3600, with a default value of 300, the Netopia Gateway should wait for communication activity before terminating the PPP link.

Configuring Port Authentication.

You can use the following command to specify how your Netopia Gateway should respond when it receives an authentication request from a remote peer.

The settings for por t authentication on the local Netopia Gateway must match the authentication that is expected by the remote peer. For example, if the remote peer requires CHAP authentication and has a name and CHAP secret for the Netopia Gateway, you must enable

309

310

CHAP and specify the same name and secret on the Netopia Gateway before the link can be established.

set ppp module [vccn] port-authentication

option [ off | on | pap-only | chap-only ]

Specifying on turns both PAP and CHAP on, or you can select PAP or CHAP. Specify the

username

and

password

when por t authentication is turned on (both CHAP and PAP,

CHAP or PAP.) Authentication must be enabled before you can enter other information.

set ppp module [vccn] port-authentication username

username

The

username

argument is 1 – 255 alphanumeric characters. The information you enter must match the username configured in the PPP peer's authentication database.

set ppp module [vccn] port-authentication password

password

The

password

argument is 1 – 128 alphanumeric characters. The information you enter must match the password used by the PPP peer.

CONFIG Commands

PPPoE with IPoE Settings

Ethernet WAN platforms

set pppoe option [ on | off ]

Enables or disables PPPoE on the Ethernet WAN inter face.

set pppoe pppoe-with-ipoe [ on | off ]

Enables or disables the PPPoE with IPoE suppor t on Ethernet WAN, including VDSL, platforms when

pppoe option is set to on.

When

pppoe-with-ipoe is set to on, an additional inter face, “ethernet C,” becomes available.

NOTE:

Enabling pppoe-with-ipoe disables suppor t for multiple PPPoE sessions.

Example:

set ip ethernet C option on set ip ethernet C address 0.0.0.0

set ip ethernet C broadcast 0.0.0.255

set ip ethernet C netmask 255.255.255.0

set ip ethernet C restrictions admin-disabled set ip ethernet C addr-mapping on set ip ethernet C mcast-fwd on set ip ethernet C igmp-null-source-addr off set ip ethernet C unnumbered off set ip ethernet C rip-receive off set ip ethernet C proxy-arp off set ip ip-ppp enet-B option on set ip ip-ppp enet-B address 0.0.0.0

set ip ip-ppp enet-B peer-address 0.0.0.0

set ip ip-ppp enet-B restrictions admin-disabled set ip ip-ppp enet-B addr-mapping on set ip ip-ppp enet-B igmp-null-source-addr off

311

312

set ip ip-ppp enet-B mcast-fwd on set ip ip-ppp enet-B unnumbered off set ip ip-ppp enet-B rip-receive off

ADSL platforms

You must configure two VCCs with the same VPI/VCI to enable concurrent PPPoE and IPoE suppor t, and you will need to configure the individual settings for each inter face for proper operation.

set atm vcc n encap pppoe-llc

Specifies that the VCC will allow a second VCC with the same VPI/VCI values as the first.

pppoe-llc denotes this special case.

Example:

set atm option on set atm vcc 1 option on set atm vcc 1 vpi 0 set atm vcc 1 vci 35 set atm vcc 1 encap pppoe-llc set atm vcc 2 option on set atm vcc 2 vpi 0 set atm vcc 2 vci 35 set atm vcc 2 encap ether-llc

This will allow you to configure the second WAN inter face.

set atm vcc 2 vpi 0 set atm vcc 2 vci 35 set atm vcc 2 encap ether-llc

...

set ip ip-ppp vcc1 mcast-fwd [ on | off }

Enables or disables multi-cast for warding on the specified inter face. If set to

on, this interface acts as an IGMP proxy host, and IGMP packets are transmitted and received on this inter face on behalf of IGMP hosts on the LAN inter face.

CONFIG Commands

set ip ip-ppp vcc1 igmp-null-source-addr [ off | on ]

Enables or disables IGMP null source address, if mcast-fwd is set to on. If enabled, the source IP address of ever y IGMP packet transmitted from this inter face is set to 0.0.0.0.

This complies with the requirements of TR-101, and removes the need for a publicly advertised IP address on the WAN inter face.

313

314

Ethernet Port Settings set ethernet ethernet A mode { auto | 100M-full | 100M-full-fixed |

100M-half-fixed | 10M-full-fixed | 10M-half-fixed |

100M-half | 10M-full | 10M-half }

Allows mode setting for the ethernet por t. Only suppor ted on units without a LAN switch, or dual ethernet products (338x). In the dual ethernet case, “ethernet B” would be specified for the WAN por t. The default is auto.

Command Line Interface Preference Settings

You can set command line inter face preferences to customize your environment.

set preference verbose { on | off }

Specifies whether you want command help and prompting information displayed. By default, the command line inter face verbose preference is turned off. If you turn it on, the command line inter face displays help for a node when you navigate to that node.

set preference more

lines

Specifies how many lines of information you want the command line inter face to display at one time. The lines argument specifies the number of lines you want to see at one time.

The range is 1-65535. By default, the command line inter face shows you 22 lines of text before displaying the prompt:

More …[y|n] ?.

If you enter 1000 for the

lines argument, the command line inter face displays information as an uninterrupted stream (which is useful for capturing information to a text file).

CONFIG Commands

Port Renumbering Settings

If you use NAT pinholes to for ward HTTP or telnet traffic through your Netopia Gateway to an internal host, you must change the por t numbers the Netopia Gateway uses for its own configuration traffic. For example, if you set up a NAT pinhole to for ward network traffic on

Por t 80 (HTTP) to another host, you would have to tell the Netopia Gateway to listen for configuration connection requests on a por t number other than 80, such as 6080.

After you have changed the por t numbers the Netopia Gateway uses for its configuration traffic, you must use those por t numbers instead of the standard numbers when configuring the Netopia Gateway. For example, if you move the router's Web ser vice to por t

“6080” on a box with a system (DNS) name of “superbox”, you would enter the URL

http:/

/superbox:6080 in a Web browser to open the Netopia Gateway graphical user inter face.

Similarly, you would have to configure your telnet application to use the appropriate por t when opening a configuration connection to your Netopia Gateway.

set servers web-http [ 1 - 65534 ]

Specifies the por t number for HTTP (web) communication with the Netopia Gateway.

Because por t numbers in the range 0-1024 are used by other protocols, you should use numbers in the range 1025-65534 when assigning new por t numbers to the Netopia Gateway web configuration inter face. A setting of

0 (zero) will turn the server off.

set servers telnet-tcp [ 1 - 65534 ]

Specifies the por t number for telnet (CLI) communication with the Netopia Gateway.

Because por t numbers in the range 0-1024 are used by other protocols, you should use numbers in the range 1025-65534 when assigning new por t numbers to the Netopia Gateway telnet configuration inter face. A setting of 0 (zero) will turn the server off.

NOTE:

You cannot specify a por t setting of

0 (zero) for both the web and telnet ports at the same time. This would prevent you from accessing the Gateway.

Security Settings

Security settings include the Firewall, Packet Filtering, Stateful Inspection, and IPSec parameters. Some of the security functionality is keyed.

Firewall Settings (for BreakWater Firewall)

set security firewall option [ ClearSailing | SilentRunning |

LANdLocked ]

The 3 settings for BreakWater are discussed in detail on page

SafeHarbour IPSec Settings

SafeHarbour VPN is a tunnel between the local network and another geographically dispersed network that is interconnected over the Internet. This VPN tunnel provides a secure, cost-effective alternative to dedicated leased lines. Internet Protocol Security

(IPsec) is a series of ser vices including encr yption, authentication, integrity, and replay protection. Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is the key management protocol of IPsec that establishes keys for encr yption and decr yption. Because this VPN software implementation is built to these standards, the other side of the tunnel can be either another Netopia unit or another IPsec/IKE based security product. For VPN you can choose to have traffic authenticated, encr ypted, or both.

When connecting the Netopia unit in a telecommuting scenario, the corporate VPN settings will dictate the settings to be used in the Netopia unit. If a parameter has not been specified from the other end of the tunnel, choose the default unless you fully understand the ramifications of your parameter choice.

set security ipsec option (off) {on | off}

Turns on the SafeHarbour IPsec tunnel capability. Default is off. See

“IPSec” on page 154

CONFIG Commands

Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Settings

The following four IPsec parameters configure the rekeying event.

set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode

ipsec-soft-mbytes (1000) {1-1000000} set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode

ipsec-soft-seconds (82800) {60-1000000} set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode

ipsec-hard-mbytes (1200) {1-1000000} set security ipsec tunnels name "123" IKE-mode

ipsec-hard-seconds (86400) {60-1000000}

The

soft parameters designate when the system begins to negotiate a new key. For example, after 82800 seconds (23 hours) or 1 Gbyte has been transferred (whichever comes first) the key will begin to be renegotiated.

The hard parameters indicate that the renegotiation must be complete or the tunnel will be disabled. For example, 86400 seconds (24 hours) means that the renegotiation must be complete within one day.

Both ends of the tunnel set parameters, and typically they will be the same. If they are not the same, the rekey event will happen when the longest time period expires or when the largest amount of data has been sent.

SNMP Settings

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets a network administrator monitor problems on a network by retrieving settings on remote network devices. The network administrator typically runs an SNMP management station program on a local host to obtain information from an SNMP agent such as the Netopia Gateway.

set snmp community read

name

Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Netopia Gateway.

By default, the Netopia Gateway is associated with the public community.

set snmp community write

name

Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Netopia Gateway.

set snmp community trap

name

Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Netopia Gateway.

set snmp trap ip-traps

ip-address

Identifies the destination for SNMP trap messages. The ip-address argument is the IP address of the host acting as an SNMP console.

set snmp sysgroup contact

contact_info

Identifies the system contact, such as the name, phone number, beeper number, or email address of the person responsible for the Netopia Gateway. You can enter up to 255 characters for the contact_info argument. You must put the contact_info argument in double-quotes if it contains embedded spaces.

set snmp sysgroup location

location_info

Identifies the location, such as the building, floor, or room number, of the Netopia Gateway.

You can enter up to 255 characters for the location_info argument. You must put the

location_info

argument in double-quotes if it contains embedded spaces.

CONFIG Commands

SNMP Notify Type Settings

set snmp notify type [ v1-trap | v2-trap | inform ]

Sets the type of SNMP notifications that the system will generate:

v1-trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv1 Trap Protocol

Data Unit (PDU)

v2-trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv2 Trap PDU

inform – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv2 InformRequest PDU.

System Settings

You can configure system settings to assign a name to your Netopia Gateway and to specify what types of messages you want the diagnostic log to record.

set system name

name

Specifies the name of your Netopia Gateway. Each Netopia Gateway is assigned a name as par t of its factor y initialization. The default name for a Netopia Gateway consists of the word “Netopia-3000/XXX” where “XXX” is the serial number of the device; for example,

Netopia-3000/9437188. A system name can be 1 – 255 characters long. Once you have assigned a name to your Netopia Gateway, you can enter that name in the Address text field of your browser to open a connection to your Netopia Gateway.

NOTE:

Some broadband cable-oriented Ser vice Providers use the System Name as an impor tant identification and suppor t parameter. If your Gateway is par t of this type of network, do NOT alter the System Name unless specifically instructed by your Ser vice Provider.

329

330

set system diagnostic-level

{ off | low | medium | high | alerts | failures }

Specifies the types of log messages you want the Netopia Gateway to record. All messages with a level equal to or greater than the level you specify are recorded. For example, if you specify set system diagnostic-level

medium, the diagnostic log will retain medium-level informational messages, aler ts, and failure messages. Specifying

off turns off logging.

Use the following guidelines:

low

- Low-level informational messages or greater; includes trivial status messages.

medium

- Medium-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that can help monitor network traffic.

high

- High-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that may be significant but do not constitute errors. The default.

alerts

- Warnings or greater; includes recoverable error conditions and useful operator information.

failures

- Failures; includes messages describing error conditions that may not be recoverable.

set system log-size [ 10240... 65536 ]

Specifies a size for the system log. The most recent entries are posted to the beginning of the log. When the log becomes full, the oldest entries are dropped. The default is 30000.

set system persistent-log [ off | on ]

When set to

on, causes the log information to be kept in flash memory.

set system idle-timeout { telnet [ 1...120 ] | http [ 1... 120 ] }

Specifies a timeout period of inactivity for telnet or HTTP access to the Gateway, after which a user must re-login to the Gateway. Defaults are 5 minutes for HTTP and 15 minutes for telnet.

set system username { administrator name | user name }

Specifies the usernames for the administrative user – the default is admin; and a nonadministrative user – the default is user.

CONFIG Commands

set system password { admin | user }

Specifies the administrator or user password for a Netopia Gateway. When you enter the

set system password

command, you are prompted to enter the old password (if any) and new password. You are prompted to repeat the new password to verify that you entered it correctly the first time. To prevent anyone from obser ving the password you enter, characters in the old and new passwords are not displayed as you type them. For security, you cannot use the “step” method to set the system password.

A password can be as many as 8 characters. Passwords are case-sensitive.

Passwords go into effect immediately. You do not have to restar t the Netopia Gateway for the password to take effect. Assigning an administrator or user password to a Netopia

Gateway does not affect communications through the device.

set system heartbeat option { on | off }

protocol [ udp | tcp ]

port-client [ 1 - 65535 ]

ip-server [ ip_address | dns_name ]

port-server [ 1 - 65535 ]

url-server (" server_name")

number [ 1 – 1073741823 ]

interval (00:00:00:20)

sleep (00:00:30:00)

contact-email (" string@domain_name")

location (" string"):

The hear tbeat setting is used in conjunction with the configuration ser ver to broadcast contact and location information about your Gateway. You can specify the protocol, port, IP-,

port-, and URL-server.

The

interval setting specifies the broadcast update frequency. Part of sequence control. The inter val is the spacing between hear tbeats, in d:h:m:s.

The contact-email setting is a quote-enclosed text string giving an email address for the Gateway’s administrator.

The

location setting is a text string allowing you to specify your geographical or other location, such as “Secaucus, NJ.”

The number setting is part of the sequence control. This is the number of heartbeats to send, at each “inter val”, before sleeping. For example, if this is 20, in the above lay-

331

332

out, each hear tbeat sequence will send out a total 20 hear tbeats, spaced at 30 second inter vals, and then sleep for 30 minutes. So to have the Gateway send out packets

“forever”, this number can be set ver y high. If it is 1440 and the inter val is 1 minute, say, the hear tbeat will go out ever y minute for 1440 minutes, or one day, before sleeping.

The

sleep setting is part of sequence control. This is the time to sleep before starting another hear tbeat sequence, in d:h:m:s.

set system ntp option [ off | on ]: server-address (north-america.pool.ntp.org) alt-server-address (pool.ntp.org): time-zone [ -12 - 12 ] update-period (60) [ 1 - 65535 ]:

daylight-savings [ off | on ]

Specifies the NTP ser ver address, time zone, and how often the Gateway should check the time from the NTP ser ver. The NTP

server-address and alt-server-address can be entered as DNS names as well as IP addresses. NTP time-zone of 0 is GMT time; options are -12 through 12 (+/- 1 hour increments from GMT time).

update-period specifies how often, in minutes, the Gateway should update the clock.

daylight-savings specifies whether daylight savings time is in effect; it defaults to

off.

set system zerotouch option [ on | off ]

Enables or disables the Zero Touch option.

Zero Touch refers to automatic configuration of your Netopia Gateway. The Netopia Gateway has default settings such that initial connection to the Internet will succeed. If the

zerotouch option is set to on, HTTP requests to any destination IP address except the IP address(es) of the configured redirection URL(s) will access a redirection ser ver. DNS traffic will not be blocked. Other traffic from the LAN to all destinations will be dropped.

set system zerotouch redirect-url

redirection-URL

Specifies the URL(s) of the desired redirection ser ver(s) when the zerotouch option is set to on. URLs may be a maximum of 192 characters long, and may be in any of the following forms: http://<domain-name OR IP address>/optionalPath:port

CONFIG Commands

http://<domain-name OR IP address>/optionalPath https://<domain-name OR IP address>/optionalPath:port https://<domain-name OR IP address>/optionalPath

<domain-name OR IP address>/optionalPath:port

<domain-name OR IP address>/optionalPath

If the por t number is omitted, por t 80 will be assumed.

Wireless Settings (supported models) set wireless option ( on | off )

Administratively enables or disables the wireless inter face.

set wireless network-id ssid {

network_name }

Specifies the wireless network id for the Gateway. A unique ssid is generated for each

Gateway. You must set your wireless clients to connect to this exact id, which can be changed to any 32-character string.

set wireless auto-channel mode { off | at-startup | continuous }

Specifies the wireless AutoChannel Setting for 802.11G models. AutoChannel is a feature that allows the Netopia Gateway to determine the best channel to broadcast automatically.

For details, see

“Advanced” on page 60 .

set wireless default-channel { 1...14 }

Specifies the wireless 2.4GHz sub channel on which the wireless Gateway will operate. For

US operation, this is limited to channels 1–11. Other countries var y; for example, Japan is channel 14 only. The default channel in the US is 6. Channel selection can have a significant impact on per formance, depending on other wireless activity in proximity to this AP.

Channel selection is not necessar y at the clients; clients will scan the available channels and look for APs using the same ssid as the client.

set wireless network-id closed-system { on | off }

When this setting is enabled, a client must know the ssid in order to connect or even see the wireless access point. When disabled, a client may scan for available wireless access points and will see this one. Enable this setting for greater security. The default is on.

CONFIG Commands

set wireless mode { both-b-and-g | b-only | g-only }

Specifies the wireless operating mode for connecting wireless clients: both-b-and-g, b-

only, or g-only, and locks the Gateway in that mode.

NOTE:

If you choose to limit the operating mode to B or G only, clients using the mode you excluded will not be able to connect.

set wireless multi-ssid option { on | off }

Enables or disables the

multi-ssid feature which allows you to add additional network identifiers (SSIDs or Network Names) for your wireless network. When enabled, you can specify up to three additional SSIDs with separate privacy settings for each. See below.

set wireless multi-ssid {second-ssid | third-ssid | fourth-ssid }

Specifies a descriptive name for each SSID. when

multi-ssid option is set to on.

337

338

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x } set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x } set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x }

Specifies the type of privacy enabled on multiple SSIDs when

multi-ssid option is set to

on. off = no privacy; WEP = WEP encryption; WPA-PSK = Wireless Protected Access/Pre-

Shared Key; WPA-802.1x = Wireless Protected Access/802.1x authentication. See “Wireless Privacy Settings” on page 343 for more information.

NOTE:

WEP is suppor ted on only one SSID at a time, and will not be available if another SSID already has it configured.

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |

WPA2-only } set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |

WPA2-only } set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |

WPA2-only }

Specifies the type of WPA version enabled on multiple SSIDs when

multi-ssid option is set to

on and privacy is set tp WPA-PSK. See

“Wireless Privacy Settings” on page 343

for more information.

CONFIG Commands

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-psk { string } set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-psk {

string } set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-psk { string }

Specifies a WPA passphrase for the multiple SSIDs, when second-, third-, or fourth-ssid-

privacy is set to WPA-PSK. The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the

Gateway and the clients and is used to generate dynamically changing keys. The passphrase can be 8 – 63 characters. It is recommended to use at least 20 characters for best security.

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ] set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ] set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]

Specifies the WEP key length for the multiple SSIDs, when

second-, third-, or fourth-

ssid-privacy is set to WEP. 40bit encryption is equivalent to 64bit encryption. The longer the key, the stronger the encr yption and the more difficult it is to break the encr yption.

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-wepkey {

hexadecimal digits } set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-wepkey { hexadecimal digits } set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-wepkey {

hexadecimal digits }

Specifies a WEP key for the multiple SSIDs, when

second-, third-, or fourth-ssid-privacy is set to

WEP. For 40/64bit encryption, you need 10 digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexadecimal characters are 0 – 9, a – f.

set wireless no-bridging [ off | on ]

When set to on, this will block wireless clients from communicating with other wireless clients on the LAN side of the Gateway.

set wireless tx-power [ full | medium | fair | low | minimal ]

Sets the wireless transmit power, scaling down the router's wireless transmit coverage by lowering its radio power output. Default is full power. Transmit power settings are useful in large venues with multiple wireless routers where you want to reuse channels. Since there are only three non-overlapping channels in the 802.11 spectrum, it helps to size the Gateway’s cell to match the location. This allows you to install a router to cover a small “hole” without conflicting with other routers nearby.

339

340

Wireless Multi-media (WMM) Settings

Router EDCA Parameters (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) govern wireless data from your Gateway to the client; Client EDCA Parameters govern wireless data from the client to your Gateway.

set wireless wmm option [ off | on ]

Enables or disables wireless multi-media settings option, which allows you to fine tune WiFi

Multimedia Quality of Ser vice (QoS) by transmitting data depending on Diffser v priority settings. These priorities are mapped into four Access Categories (AC), in increasing order of priority: Background (BK), Best Effor t (BE), Video (VI), and Voice (VO). It requires WiFi Multimedia-capable clients, usually a separate feature enabled at the client.

CONFIG Commands

Wireless Privacy Settings

set wireless network-id privacy option { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x }

Specifies the type of privacy enabled on the wireless LAN. off = no privacy; WEP = WEP encr yption; WPA-PSK = Wireless Protected Access/Pre-Shared Key; WPA-802.1x = Wireless

Protected Access/802.1x authentication. See

“Wireless” on page 56

for a discussion of these options.

WPA provides Wireless Protected Access, the most secure option for your wireless network. This mechanism provides the best data protection and access control. PSK requires a Pre-Shared Key; 802.1x requires a RADIUS ser ver for authentication.

WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a method of encr ypting data between the wireless Gateway and its clients. It is strongly recommended to turn this

on as it is the primary way to protect your network and data from intruders. Note that 40bit is the same as 64bit and will work with either type of wireless client. The default is

off.

A single key is selected (see default-key) for encr yption of outbound/transmitted packets.

The WEP-enabled client must have the identical key, of the same length, in the identical slot (1..4) as the wireless Gateway, in order to successfully receive and decr ypt the packet. Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’ key that it uses to encr ypt its transmissions. In order for the wireless Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have the identical key, of the same length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a wireless Gateway and its clients need only enter, share, and use the first key.

set wireless network-id privacy pre-shared-key

string

The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the Router and the clients and is used to generate dynamically changing keys, when WPA-PSK is selected or enabled. The passphrase can be 8 – 63 characters. It is recommended to use at least 20 characters for best security.

set wireless network-id privacy default-keyid { 1...4 }

Specifies which WEP encr yption key (of 4) the wireless Gateway will use to transmit data.

The client must have an identical matching key, in the same numeric slot, in order to successfully decode. Note that a client allows you to choose which of its keys it will use to transmit. Therefore, you must have an identical key in the same numeric slot on the Gateway.

343

344

For simplicity, it is easiest to have both the Gateway and the client transmit with the same key. The default is

1.

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key1-length

{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit} set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key4-length

{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}

Selects the length of each encr yption key. 40bit encr yption is equivalent to 64bit encr yption. The longer the key, the stronger the encr yption and the more difficult it is to break the encr yption.

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key1 {

hexadecimal digits } set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key2 { hexadecimal digits } set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key3 {

hexadecimal digits } set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key4 { hexadecimal digits }

The encr yption keys. Enter keys using hexadecimal digits. For 40/64bit encr yption, you need 10 digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexadecimal characters are 0 – 9, a – f.

Example 40bit key: 02468ACE02.

Example 128bit key: 0123456789ABCDEF0123456789.

Example 256bit key:

592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F21A09C.

You must set at least one of these keys, indicated by the default-keyid.

VLAN Settings

You can create up to 32 VLANs, and you can also restrict any VLAN, and the computers on it, from administering the Gateway. See

“VLAN” on page 121 for more information.

set vlan name

string

Sets the descriptive name for the VLAN. If no name is specified, displays a selection list of node names to select for editing.

Once a new VLAN name is specified, presents the list of VLAN characteristics to define:

id – numerical range of possible IDs is 1 - 4094. (A VID of zero (0) is permitted on the

Ethernet WAN por t only.)

type [ by-port | global ] – global type is available, as well as by-port

admin-restricted [ off | on ] – default is off. If you select on, administrative access to the Gateway is blocked from this VLAN.

port – VLAN’s physical port or wireless SSID.

tag – packets transmitted from this port through this VLAN must be tagged with the

VLAN VID. Packets received through this por t destined for this VLAN must be tagged with the VLAN VID by the source. The

tag option is only available on global type ports.

priority - allows you to enable or disable packet prioritization based on any 802.1p priority bits in the VLAN header to prioritize packets within the Router’s internal queues, according to DiffSer v priority mapping rules.

promote - allows you to enable or disable writing any 802.1p priority bits into the IP-

TOS header bit field for received IP packets on this por t destined for this VLAN. Write any IP-TOS priority bits into the 802.1p priority bit field for tagged IP packets transmitted from this por t for this VLAN. All mappings between Ethernet 802.1p and IP-TOS are made via

diffserv dscp-map settings.

You must save the changes, exit out of configuration mode, and restar t the Gateway for the changes to take effect.

uplink

option (off) [ off | on ]: on

ipsec-mgmt1

option (off) [ off | on ]:

Netopia-3000/9437188 (vlan)>>

Note:

To make a set of VLANs non-routable, the uplink port must be included in at least one VLAN and must be excluded from any VLANs that are non-routable.

UPnP settings

set upnp option [ on | off ]

PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway’s WAN IP address, and automatically create NAT por t maps. This means that applications that suppor t UPnP, and are used with a UPnPenabled Netopia Gateway, will not need application layer gateway suppor t on the Netopia

Gateway to work through NAT. The default is on.

You can disable UPnP, if you are not using any UPnP devices or applications.

DSL Forum settings

TR-064 is a LAN-side DSL CPE configuration specification and TR-069 is a WAN-side DSL

CPE Management specification.

TR-064.

DSL Forum LAN Side CPE Configuration (TR-064) is an extension of UPnP. It defines more ser vices to locally manage the Netopia Gateway. While UPnP allows open access to configure the Gateway's features, TR-064 requires a password to execute any command that changes the Gateway's configuration.

set dslf-lanmgmt option [ off | on ]

Turns TR-064 LAN side management ser vices on or off. The default is

on.

CONFIG Commands

TR-069.

DSL Forum CPE WAN Management Protocol (TR-069) provides ser vices similar to

UPnP and TR-064. The communication between the Netopia Gateway and management agent in UPnP and TR-064 is strictly over the LAN, whereas the communication in TR-069 is over the WAN link for some features and over the LAN for others. TR-069 allows a remote

Auto-Config Ser ver (ACS) to provision and manage the Netopia Gateway. TR-069 protects sensitive data on the Gateway by not adver tising its presence, and by password protection.

set dslf-cpewan option [ off | on ] set dslf-cpewan acs-url "

acs_url:port_number" set dslf-cpewan acs-user-name “

acs_username” set dslf-cpewan acs-user-password “

acs_password

Turns TR-069 WAN side management ser vices on or off. For 3300-Series Gateways, the default is

off; for 2200-Series Gateways, the default is on. If TR-069 WAN side management ser vices are enabled, specifies the auto-config ser ver URL and por t number. A username and password must also be supplied, if TR-069 is enabled.

The auto-config ser ver is specified by URL and por t number. The format for the ACS URL is as follows: http:// some_url.com:port_number or http:// 123.45.678.910:port_number

On units that suppor t SSL, the format for the ACS URL can also be: https:// some_url.com:port_number or https:// 123.45.678.910:port_number

-----I-----

IGMP. Internet Group Management Protocol allows a router to determine which host groups have members on a given network segment.

IKE. Internet Key Exchange protocol provides automated key management and is a preferred alternative to manual key management as it provides better security. Manual key management is practical in a small, static environment of two or three sites. Exchanging the key is done through manual means. Because IKE provides automated key exchange, it is good for larger, more dynamic environments.

INSPECTION. The best option for Internet communications security is to have an SMLI firewall constantly inspecting the flow of traffic: determining direction, limiting or eliminating inbound access, and verifying down to the packet level that the network traffic is only what the customer chooses. The

Netopia Gateway works like a network super traffic cop, inspecting and filtering out undesired traffic based on your security policy and resulting configuration.

interface. A connection between two devices or networks.

DH group 1, 2, or 5. PFS is a security principle that ensures that any single key being compromised will permit access to only data protected by that single key. In PFS, the key used to protect transmission of data must not be used to derive any additional keys. If the key was derived from some other keying material, that material must not be used to derive any more keys.

The authentication algorithm for AH and ESP

The encr yption algorithm for ESP

The encr yption and authentication keys

Lifetime of encr yption keys

The lifetime of the SA

Replay prevention sequence number and the replay bit table

An arbitrar y 32-bit number called a Security Parameters Index (SPI), as well as the destination host’s address and the IPSEC protocol identifier, identify each SA. An SPI is assigned to an SA when the SA is negotiated. The SA can be referred to by using an SPI in AH and ESP transformations. SA is unidirectional. SAs are commonly setup as bundles, because typically two SAs are required for communications. SA management is always done on bundles

(setup, delete, relay).

serial communication. Method of data transmission in which data bits are transmitted sequentially over a communication channel

363

364

SHA-1. An implementation of the U.S. Government Secure Hash Algorithm; a 160-bit authentication algorithm.

Soft MBytes. Setting the Soft MBytes parameter forces the renegotiation of the IPSec Security Associations (SAs) at the configured Soft MByte value.

The value can be configured between

1 and 1,000,000 MB and refers to data traffic passed. If this value is not achieved, the Hard MBytes parameter is enforced.

SSL. Secure Sockets Layer. A protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL uses a cr yptographic system that uses two keys to encr ypt data: a public key known to ever yone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message.

STATEFUL. The Netopia Gateway monitors and maintains the state of any network transaction. In terms of network request-and-reply, state consists of the source IP address, destination IP address, communication por ts, and data sequence. The Netopia Gateway processes the stream of a network conversation, rather than just individual packets. It verifies that packets are sent from and received by the proper IP addresses along the proper communication por ts in the correct order and that no imposter packets interrupt the packet flow. Packet filtering monitors only the por ts involved, while the

Netopia Gateway analyzes the continuous conversation stream, preventing session hijacking and denial of ser vice attacks.

static route. Route entered manually in a routing table.

subnet mask. A 32-bit address mask that identifies which bits of an IP address represent network address information and which bits represent node identifier information.

TR-069. TR-069 is a WAN-side DSL Gateway Management specification; provides ser vices similar to UPnP and TR-064. The communication between a

Gateway and management agent in UPnP and TR-064 is strictly over the

LAN, whereas the communication in TR-069 is over the WAN link for some features and over the LAN for others. TR-069 allows a remote Auto-Config

Ser ver to provision and manage a Gateway.

TR-101. Standard for a network architecture where the aggregation network is Ethernet-based while the DSL access network is still ATM-over-DSL-based.

This facilitates multiplay ser vice deliver y over a range of scaleable broadband access technologies. Ratified by the DSL Forum in late April 2006, TR-

101 enables ser vice providers to evolve their DSL access networks to better suppor t faster access rates and to introduce new multiplay ser vices across

IP-based broadband networks, all through a single gateway. These standards are par ticularly impor tant for widespread deliver y of Internet Protocol Television (IPTV). TR-101 outlines the specific features necessar y for IP-based network equipment to deliver multiple ser vices with the same levels of Quality of Ser vice, authentication, and ser vice segmentation previously provided by traditional DSL networks.

-----V-----

VDSL. Very high rate Digital Subscriber Line. VDSL transmits high speed data over shor t reaches of twisted-pair copper telephone lines, with a range of speeds depending upon actual line length. Both data channels will be separated in frequency from bands used for POTS and ISDN, enabling service providers to overlay VDSL on existing ser vices. At present the two high speed channels will also be separated in frequency.

VLAN. Virtual Local Area Network. A network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the same wire even though they may be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are configured in software rather than hardware.

-----W-----

WAN. Wide Area Network. Private network facilities, usually offered by public telephone companies but increasingly available from alternative access providers (sometimes called Competitive Access Providers, or CAPs), that link business network nodes.

WFQ. Weighted Fair Queueing. A packet scheduling technique allowing guaranteed bandwidth ser vices in order to let multiple sessions share the same link. It regulates the flow of data in networks by sor ting packets to minimize latency. WFQ passes along narrowband signals first, and buffers broadband signals.

WMM. WiFi MultiMedia. WiFi Multimedia allows you to prioritize various types of data travelling over the wireless network. Cer tain types of data that are sensitive to delays, such as voice or video, must be prioritized ahead of other, less delay-sensitive types, such as email. It currently implements wireless Quality of Ser vice (QoS) by transmitting data depending on Diffser v priority settings.

WWW. World Wide Web.

CHAPTER 9 Overview of Major Capabilities

The Netopia Gateway offers simplified setup and management features as well as advanced broadband router capabilities. The following are some of the main features of the Netopia Gateway:

“Wide Area Network Termination” on page 378

The Gateway combines an ADSL modem with an Internet router. It translates protocols used on the Internet to protocols used by home personal computers and eliminates the need for special desktop software (i.e. PPPoE).

“Simplified Local Area Network Setup” on page 379

Built-in DHCP and DNS proxy features minimize or eliminate the need to program any network configuration into your home personal computer.

“Management” on page 380

A Web ser ver built into the Netopia Operating System makes setup and maintenance easy using standard browsers. Diagnostic tools facilitate troubleshooting.

“Security” on page 381

Network Address Translation (NAT), password protection, Stateful Inspection firewall and other built-in security features prevent unauthorized remote access to your network.

Pinholes, default ser ver, and other features permit access to computers on your home network that you can specify.

377

378

Wide Area Network Termination

PPPoE/PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet/ATM)

The PPPoE specification, incorporating the PPP and Ethernet standards, allows your computer(s) to connect to your Ser vice Provider’s network through your Ethernet WAN connection. The Netopia-series Gateway suppor ts PPPoE, eliminating the need to install PPPoE client software on any LAN computers.

Ser vice Providers may require the use of PPP authentication protocols such as Challenge

Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) or Password Authentication Protocol (PAP).

CHAP and PAP use a username and password pair to authenticate users with a PPP ser ver.

A CHAP authentication process works as follows:

1.

2.

3.

The password is used to scramble a challenge string.

The password is a shared secret, known by both peers.

The unit sends the scrambled challenge back to the peer.

PAP, a less robust method of authentication, sends a username and password to a PPP ser ver to be authenticated. PAP’s username and password pair are not encr ypted, and are therefore sent “unscrambled”.

Instant-On PPP

You can configure your Gateway for one of two types of Internet connections:

Always On

Instant On

These selections provide either an uninterrupted Internet connection or an as-needed connection.

While an Always On connection is convenient, it does leave your network permanently connected to the Internet, and therefore potentially vulnerable to attacks.

Netopia's Instant On technology furnishes almost all the benefits of an Always-On connection while providing two additional security benefits:

Your network cannot be attacked when it is not connected.

Simplified Local Area Network Setup

Your network may change address with each connection making it more difficult to attack.

When you configure Instant On access, you can also configure an idle time-out value. Your

Gateway monitors traffic over the Internet link and when there has been no traffic for the configured number of seconds, it disconnects the link.

When new traffic that is destined for the Internet arrives at the Gateway, the Gateway will instantly re-establish the link.

Your ser vice provider may be using a system that assigns the Internet address of your

Gateway out of a pool of many possible Internet addresses. The address assigned varies with each connection attempt, which makes your network a moving target for any attacker.

Simplified Local Area Network Setup

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server

DHCP Ser ver functionality enables the Gateway to assign to your LAN computer(s) a “private” IP address and other parameters that allow network communication. The default

DHCP Ser ver configuration of the Gateway suppor ts up to 253 LAN IP addresses.

This feature simplifies network administration because the Gateway maintains a list of IP address assignments. Additional computers can be added to your LAN without the hassle of configuring an IP address.

DNS Proxy

Domain Name System (DNS) provides end users with the ability to look for devices or web sites by typing their names, rather than IP addresses. For web sur fers, this technology allows you to enter the URL (Universal Resource Locator) as text to sur f to a desired website.

The Netopia DNS Proxy feature allows the LAN-side IP address of the Gateway to be used for proxying DNS requests from hosts on the LAN to the DNS Ser vers configured in the gateway. This is accomplished by having the Gateway's LAN address handed out as the

“DNS Ser ver” to the DHCP clients on the LAN.

379

380

NOTE:

The Netopia DNS Proxy only proxies UDP DNS queries, not TCP DNS queries.

Management

Embedded Web Server

There is no specialized software to install on your PC to configure, manage, or maintain your Netopia Gateway. Web pages embedded in the operating system provide access to the following Gateway operations:

Setup

System and security logs

Diagnostics functions

Once you have removed your Netopia Gateway from its packing container and powered the unit up, use any LAN attached PC or workstation running a common web browser application to configure and monitor the Gateway.

Diagnostics

In addition to the Gateway’s visual LED indicator lights, you can run an extensive set of diagnostic tools from your Web browser.

Two of the facilities are:

Automated “Multi-Layer” Test

The

Run Diagnostics

link initiates a sequence of tests. They examine the entire functionality of the Gateway, from the physical connections to the data traffic.

Network Test Tools

Three test tools to determine network reachability are available:

Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by sending an ICMP echo request and waiting for a reply.

NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.

Security

TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number of hops and the router addresses of these hops.

The system log also provides diagnostic information.

NOTE:

Your Ser vice Provider may request information that you acquire from these various diagnostic tools. Individual tests may be per formed at the command line.

(

See “Command Line Inter face” on page 247.

).

Security

Remote Access Control

You can determine whether or not an administrator or other authorized person has access to configuring your Gateway. This access can be turned on or off in the Web inter face.

Password Protection

Access to your Netopia device can be controlled through two access control accounts,

Admin or User.

The Admin, or administrative user, per forms all configuration, management or maintenance operations on the Gateway.

The

User account provides monitor capability only.

A user may NOT change the configuration, per form upgrades or invoke maintenance functions.

Account usernames can now be changed for the Admin and User accounts.

Network Address Translation (NAT)

The Netopia Gateway Network Address Translation (NAT) security feature lets you conceal the topology of a hard-wired Ethernet or wireless network connected to its LAN inter face

381

Internet from routers on networks connected to its WAN inter face. In other words, the end computer stations on your LAN are

invisible from the Internet.

Only a

single WAN IP address is required to provide this security support for your entire

LAN.

LAN sites that communicate through an Internet Ser vice Provider typically enable NAT, since they usually purchase only one IP address from the ISP.

When NAT is ON, the Netopia Gateway “proxies” for the end computer stations on your network by pretending to be the originating host for network communications from nonoriginating networks. The WAN inter face address is the only IP address exposed.

The Netopia Gateway tracks which local hosts are communicating with which remote hosts. It routes packets received from remote networks to the correct computer on the

LAN (Ethernet) inter face.

When NAT is

OFF, a Netopia Gateway acts as a traditional TCP/IP router, all LAN computers/devices are exposed to the Internet.

A diagram of a typical NAT-enabled LAN follows:

Security

NOTE:

1. The default setting for NAT is ON.

2. Netopia uses Por t Address Translation (PAT) to implement the NAT facility.

3. NAT Pinhole traffic (discussed below) is always initiated from the WAN side.

Netopia Advanced Features for NAT

Using the NAT facility provides effective LAN security. However, there are user applications that require methods to selectively by-pass this security function for cer tain types of Internet traffic.

Netopia Gateways provide special pinhole configuration rules that enable users to establish NAT-protected LAN layouts that still provide flexible by-pass capabilities.

Some of these rules require coordination with the unit’s embedded administration services: the internal Web (HTTP) Por t (TCP 80) and the internal Telnet Ser ver Por t (TCP 23).

Internal Servers

The internal ser vers are the embedded Web and Telnet ser vers of the Gateway. You would change the internal ser ver por ts for Web and Telnet of the Gateway if you wanted to have these ser vices on the LAN using pinholes or the Default ser ver.

Pinholes

This feature allows you to:

Transparently route selected types of network traffic using the por t for warding facility.

FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections are directed to a specific host on your LAN.

Setup multiple pinhole paths.

Up to 32 paths are suppor ted

Identify the type(s) of traffic you want to redirect by por t number.

383

384

Common TCP/IP protocols and por ts are:

FTP (TCP 21)

SMTP (TCP 25)

SNMP (TCP 161, UDP 161)

See

page 90 for How To instructions.

telnet (TCP 23)

HTTP (TCP 80)

Default Server

This feature allows you to:

Direct your Gateway to for ward all externally initiated IP traffic (TCP and UDP protocols only) to a default host on the LAN.

Enable it for cer tain situations:

Where you cannot anticipate what por t number or packet protocol an in-bound application might use.

For example, some network games select arbitrar y por t numbers when a connection is opened.

When you want all unsolicited traffic to go to a specific LAN host.

Combination NAT Bypass Configuration

Specific pinholes and Default Ser ver settings, each directed to different LAN devices, can be used together.

WARNING:

Creating a pinhole or enabling a Default Ser ver allows inbound access to the specified LAN station. Contact your Network Administrator for LAN security questions.

Security

IP-Passthrough

Netopia OS now offers an IP passthrough feature. The IP passthrough feature allows a single PC on the LAN to have the Gateway’s public address assigned to it. It also provides PAT

(NAPT) via the same public IP address for all other hosts on the private LAN subnet.

VPN IPSec Pass Through

This Netopia ser vice suppor ts your independent VPN client software in a transparent manner. Netopia has implemented an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) to suppor t multiple PCs running IP Security protocols.

This feature has three elements:

1.

2.

3.

On power up or reset, the address mapping function (NAT) of the Gateway’s WAN configuration is turned on by default.

When you use your third-party VPN application, the Gateway recognizes the traffic from your client and your unit. It allows the packets to pass through the NAT “protection layer” via the encrypted IPSec tunnel.

The encrypted IPSec tunnel is established “through” the Gateway.

A typical VPN IPSec Tunnel pass through is diagrammed below:

Netopia

Gateway

385

386

NOTE:

Typically, no special configuration is necessar y to use the IPSec pass through feature.

In the diagram, VPN PC clients are shown behind the Netopia Gateway and the secure ser ver is at Corporate Headquar ters across the WAN. You cannot have your secure ser ver behind the Netopia Gateway.

When multiple PCs are star ting IPSec sessions, they must be star ted one at a time to allow the associations to be created and mapped.

VPN IPSec Tunnel Termination

This Netopia ser vice suppor ts termination of VPN IPsec tunnels at the Gateway. This permits tunnelling from the Gateway without the use of third-par ty VPN client software on your client PCs.

Stateful Inspection Firewall

Stateful inspection is a security feature that prevents unsolicited inbound access when

NAT is disabled. You can configure UDP and TCP “no-activity” periods that will also apply to

NAT time-outs if stateful inspection is enabled on the inter face.

Technical details are discussed in

“Exper t Mode” on page 41 .

SSL Certificate Support

On selected models, you can also install a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL V3.0) cer tificate from a trusted Cer tification Authority (CA) for authentication purposes. If this feature is available on your Gateway, an additional link will appear in the Install page.

Netopia Firmware Version 7.7 uses SSL cer tificates for TR-069 suppor t.

See

“Install Cer tificate” on page 213 .

VLANs

Netopia's VGx technology allows a single Netopia VGx-enabled broadband gateway to act as separate vir tual gateways, treating each individual ser vice as a single ser vice "channel." The VGx-enabled gateway applies specific policies, routing, and prioritization parameters to each ser vice channel, ensuring deliver y of that ser vice to the appropriate peripheral

Security

device with the requisite level of QoS and correct feature sets — making it ideal for deliver y of triple play voice, video, and data ser vices.

VGx was developed to ensure that subscribers receive the quality of voice, video, and data ser vices they expect — to prevent a large data download from causing jitter y video or poor voice quality. VGx achieves this goal by providing superior ser vice segmentation and QoS features obtained by mapping multiple local vir tual local area networks ( VLANs) to one or more specific permanent vir tual circuits (PVCs) for DSL, or wide area network VLANs for a fiber network.

Traffic prioritization is determined through the Institute of Electrical Engineering (IEEE) standard

802.1p, which specifies QoS algorithms to prioritize traffic based on protocol and source. This insures that each ser vice receives the QoS treatment it requires; for example,

video is free from latency,

VoIP ser vice is prioritized to insure aural quality, and

data is securely and efficiently routed.
