Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
34 Chapter 1 Getting to know your Nortel Business Secure Router 252
Autonegotiating 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet LAN
The LAN interfaces automatically detect if they are on a 10 or a 100 Mb/s
Ethernet.
Autosensing 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet LAN
The LAN interfaces automatically adjust to either a crossover or straight through
Ethernet cable.
Auxiliary port
The Business Secure Router uses the same port for console management and for an auxiliary WAN backup. The AUX port can be used in reserve as a traditional dial-up connection when or if ever the broadband connection to the WAN port fails.
Time and date
Using the Business Secure Router, you can get the current time and date from an external server when you turn on your Business Secure Router. You can also set the time manually.
Reset button
The Business Secure Router reset button is built into the rear panel. Use this button to restart the Business Secure Router or restore the factory default password to setup, IP address to 192.168.1.1, subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, and
DHCP server enabled with a pool of 126 IP addresses starting at 192.168.1.2.
Nonphysical features
IPSec VPN capability
Establish Virtual Private Network (VPN) tunnels to connect home or office computers to your company network using data encryption and the Internet; thus providing secure communications without the expense of leased site-to-site lines.
VPN is based on the IPSec standard and is fully interoperable with other
IPSec-based VPN products.
NN47923-501
Chapter 1 Getting to know your Nortel Business Secure Router 252 35
Nortel Contivity Client Termination
The Business Secure Router supports VPN connections from computers using
Nortel Contivity VPN Client 3.0, 5.01, 5.11, 6.01, 6.02, or 7.01 software.
Certificates
The Business Secure Router can use certificates (also called digital IDs) to authenticate users. Certificates are based on public-private key pairs. Certificates provide a way to exchange public keys for use in authentication.
SSH
The Business Secure Router uses the SSH (Secure Shell) secure communication protocol to provide secure encrypted communication between two hosts over an unsecured network.
HTTPS
HyperText Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer, or HTTP over SSL is a web protocol that encrypts and decrypts web sessions. Use HTTPS for secure
WebGUI access to the Business Secure Router.

Traffic Redirect
Traffic Redirect forwards WAN traffic to a backup gateway when the Business
Secure Router cannot connect to the Internet, thus acting as an auxiliary backup when your regular WAN connection fails.
Port Forwarding
Use this feature to forward incoming service requests to a server on your local network. You can enter a single port number or a range of port numbers to be forwarded, and the local IP address of the desired server.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), individual client computers can obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server.
The Business Secure Router has built in DHCP server capability, enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway, and DNS servers to all systems that support the DHCP client. The Business Secure Router can also act as a surrogate DHCP server, where it relays IP address assignment from another DHCP server to the clients.
Full network management
The embedded web configurator is an all platform, web based utility that you can use to easily manage and configure the Business Secure Router. Most functions of the Business Secure Router are also software configurable through the SMT
(System Management Terminal) interface. The SMT is a menu driven interface that you can access from a terminal emulator through the console port or over a
Telnet connection.

DNS server
Description
DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa.
The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it. The Business Secure Router uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify here) to resolve domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select an option. Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns
DNS server information (and the Business Secure
Router's WAN IP address). The IP Address field below displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that the
ISP assigns. If you chose From ISP , but the Business
Secure Router has a fixed WAN IP address, From ISP changes to None after you save your changes. If you select From ISP for the second or third DNS server, but the ISP does not provide a second or third IP address,
From ISP changes to None after you save your changes.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a
DNS server. The IP address can be public or a private address on your local LAN. Enter the DNS server's IP address in the field to the right.
A User-Defined entry with the IP address set to 0.0.0.0 changes to None after you save your changes. A duplicate User-Defined entry changes to None after you save your changes.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a system DNS server, you must use IP addresses when configuring VPN,
DDNS and the time server.
Select Private DNS if the DNS server has a private IP address and is located behind a VPN peer. Enter the
DNS server IP address in the field to the right.
With a private DNS server, you must also configure the first DNS server entry in SMT menu 3.1 to use DNS
Relay .

Enter the IP address of your backup gateway in dotted decimal notation.
The Business Secure Router automatically forwards traffic to this IP address if the Internet connection of the Business Secure Router terminates.
This field sets the priority for this route among the routes the Business
Secure Router uses.
The metric represents the cost of transmission. A router determines the best route for transmission by choosing a path with the lowest cost. RIP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of
1 for directly connected networks. The number must be between 1 and
15; a number greater than 15 means the link is down. The smaller the number, the lower the cost.

Editing logon script
For some remote gateways, text logon is required before PPP negotiation is started. The Business Secure Router provides a script facility for this purpose. The script has six programmable sets; each set is composed of an Expect string and a
‘Send’ string. After matching a message from the server to the ‘Expect’ field, the
Business Secure Router returns the set’s Send string to the server.
For instance, a typical logon sequence starts with the server printing a banner, a logon prompt for you to enter the username and a password prompt to enter the password:
Welcome to Acme, Inc.
Login: myLogin
Password:
To handle the first prompt, you specify ogin: as the Expect string and myLogin as the Send string in set 1. The reason for leaving out the leading L is to avoid having to know exactly whether it is upper or lower case. Similarly, you specify word: as the Expect string and your password as the Send string for the second prompt in set 2.
NN47923-501
Chapter 3 WAN and Dial Backup Setup 69
You can use two variables, $USERNAME and $PASSWORD (all upper case), to represent the actual username and password in the script, so they do not show in clear text. They are replaced with the outgoing login name and password in the remote node when the Business Secure Router sees them in a ‘Send’ string. Note that both variables must be entered exactly as shown. No other characters can appear before or after, either, i.e., they must be used alone in response to logon and password prompts.
Note that the ordering of the sets is significant, i.e., starting from set 1, the
Business Secure Router waits until the ‘Expect’ string is matched before it proceeds to set 2, and so on for the rest of the script. When both the ‘Expect’ and the ‘Send’ fields of the current set are empty, the Business Secure Router terminates the script processing and start PPP negotiation. This implies two things: first, the sets must be contiguous; the sets after an empty one are ignored.
Second, the last set must match the final message sent by the server. For instance, if the server prints: login successful.
Starting PPP...
after you enter the password, then you must create a third set to match the final
“PPP...” but without a “Send” string. Otherwise, the Business Secure Router starts
PPP prematurely right after sending your password to the server.
If there are errors in the script and it gets stuck at a set for longer than the “Dial
Timeout” in menu 2 (default 60 seconds), the Business Secure Router times out and drops the line. To debug a script, go to Menu 24.4 to initiate a manual call and watch the trace display to see if the sequence of messages and prompts from the server differs from what you expect.

Select DNS Relay to have the Business Secure
Router act as a DNS proxy. The Business Secure
Router's LAN IP address displays in the IP Address field below (read-only). The Business Secure Router tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the Business
Secure Router itself is the DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends a DNS query to the
Business Secure Router, the Business Secure
Router forwards the query to the Business Secure
Router's system DNS server (configured in the
SYSTEM General screen) and relays the response back to the computer. You can only select DNS
Relay for one of the three servers; if you select DNS
Relay for a second or third DNS server, that choice changes to None after you save your changes.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a machine in order to access it.

Chapter 6
Remote Node setup
This chapter shows you how to configure a remote node.
Introduction to Remote Node setup
This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote node. A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both the remote gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. When you use menu 4 to set up Internet access, you are configuring one of the remote nodes.
You first choose a remote node in Menu 11- Remote Node Setup . You can then edit that node’s profile in menu 11.1, as well as configure specific settings in three submenus: edit IP and bridge options in menu 11.3; edit ATM options in menu
11.6; and edit filter sets in menu 11.5.
Outgoing Authentication Protocol
Generally speaking, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible, for obvious reasons. However, some vendor’s implementation includes a specific authentication protocol in the user profile. It will disconnect if the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile, even when the negotiated protocol is stronger than specified. If you encounter a case where the peer disconnects right after a successful authentication, please make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol when connecting to such an implementation.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
86 Chapter 6 Remote Node setup
Nailed-Up Connection
A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up regardless of traffic demand. The Business Secure Router does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled. The second is that the Business Secure Router will try to bring up the connection when turned on and whenever the connection is down. A nailed-up connection can be very expensive for obvious reasons.
Do not specify a nailed-up connection unless your telephone company offers flat-rate service or you need a constant connection and the cost is of no concern.
The following table describes the fields specific to PPPoE encapsulation.

Encapsulation and Multiplexing scenarios
For Internet access you should use the encapsulation and multiplexing methods used by your ISP. Consult your telephone company for information on encapsulation and multiplexing methods for LAN-to-LAN applications, for example between a branch office and corporate headquarters. There must be prior agreement on encapsulation and multiplexing methods because they cannot be automatically determined. What methods you use also depends on how many VCs you have and how many different network protocols you need. The extra overhead that ENET ENCAP encapsulation entails makes it a poor choice in a
LAN-to-LAN application. Here are some examples of more suitable combinations in such an application.
• Scenario 1. One VC, Multiple Protocols
PPPoA (RFC-2364) encapsulation with VC-based multiplexing is the best combination because no extra protocol identifying headers are needed. The
PPP protocol already contains this information.
• Scenario 2. One VC, One Protocol (IP)
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
88 Chapter 6 Remote Node setup
Selecting RFC-1483 encapsulation with VC-based multiplexing requires the least amount of overhead (0 octets). However, if there is a potential need for multiple protocol support in the future, it may be safer to select PPPoA encapsulation instead of RFC-1483 , so you do not need to reconfigure either computer later.
• Scenario 3.Multiple VCs
If you have an equal number (or more) of VCs than the number of protocols, then select RFC-1483 encapsulation and VC-based multiplexing.

Network Address Translation (NAT)
This chapter discusses how to configure NAT on the Business Secure Router.
105
Using NAT
Note: You must create a firewall rule in addition to setting up SUA/
NAT, to allow traffic from the WAN to be forwarded through the
Business Secure Router.
SUA (Single User Account) Versus NAT
SUA (Single User Account) is an implementation of a subset of NAT that supports two types of mapping, Many-to-One and Server . For a detailed description of NAT set for SUA, see “Address Mapping Sets” on page 108 . The
Business Secure Router also supports Full Feature NAT to map multiple global
IP addresses to multiple private LAN IP addresses of clients or servers using mapping types .
Note: Choose SUA Only if you have just one public WAN IP address for your Business Secure Router.
Choose Full Feature if you have multiple public WAN IP addresses for your Business Secure Router.
Applying NAT
You apply NAT via menus 4 or 11.3 ( Figure 37 on page 107 ). Figure 36 shows you how to apply NAT for Internet access in menu 4. Enter 4 from the main menu to go to Menu 4 - Internet Access Setup.

Ordering your rules
Ordering your rules is important because the Business Secure Router applies the rules in the order that you specify. When a rule matches the current packet, the
Business Secure Router takes the corresponding action and the remaining rules are ignored. If there are any empty rules before your new configured rule, your configured rule is pushed up by that number of empty rules. For example, if you have already configured rules 1 to 6 in your current set and now you configure rule number 9. In the set summary screen, the new rule will be rule 7, not 9.
NN47923-501
Chapter 9 Network Address Translation (NAT) 113
If you delete rule 4, rules 5 to 7 will be pushed up by 1 rule, so as old rule 5 becomes rule 4, old rule 6 becomes rule 5 and old rule 7 becomes rule 6.

Example 3: Multiple public IP addresses with inside servers
In this example, there are 3 IGAs from our ISP. There are many departments but two have their own FTP server. All departments share the same router. The example reserves one IGA for each department with an FTP server and all departments use the other IGA. Map the FTP servers to the first two IGAs and the other LAN traffic to the remaining IGA. Map the third IGA to an inside web server and mail server. Four rules need to be configured, two bi-directional and two uni-directional, as follows.
1 Map the first IGA to the first inside FTP server for FTP traffic in both directions ( 1 : 1 mapping, giving both local and global IP addresses).
2 Map the second IGA to the second internal FTP server for FTP traffic in both directions ( 1 : 1 mapping, giving both local and global IP addresses).
3 Map the other outgoing LAN traffic to IGA3 ( Many : 1 mapping).
4 You also map your third IGA to the web server and mail server on the LAN. If you choose type Server , you can specify multiple servers, of different types, to other computers behind NAT on the LAN.

Filter configuration
This chapter shows you how to create and apply filters.
Introduction to filters
Your Business Secure Router uses filters to decide whether to allow passage of a data packet, make a call, or both. There are two types of filter applications: data filtering and call filtering. Filters are subdivided into device and protocol filters.
Data filtering screens the data to determine if the packet is allowed to pass. Data filters are divided into incoming and outgoing filters, depending on the direction of the packet relative to a port. Data filtering can be applied on either the WAN side or the LAN side. Call filtering is used to determine if a packet is allowed to trigger a call. Remote node call filtering is only applicable when using PPPoE encapsulation.
Outgoing packets must undergo data filtering before they encounter call filtering as shown in Figure 59 .

For incoming packets, your Business Secure Router applies data filters only.
Packets are processed depending upon whether a match is found. The following sections describe how to configure filter sets.
Filter Structure
A filter set consists of one or more filter rules. Usually, you group related rules, for example, all the rules for NetBIOS, into a single set and give it a descriptive name. With the Business Secure Router, you can configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72 filter rules in the system. You cannot mix device filter rules and protocol filter rules within the same set. You can apply up to four filter sets to a particular port to block multiple types of packets. With each filter set having up to six rules, you can have a maximum of 24 rules active for a single port.
Sets of factory default filter rules are configured in menu 21 to prevent NetBIOS traffic from triggering calls and to prevent incoming Telnet sessions. A summary of their filter rules is shown in the figures that follow.
Figure 60 illustrates the logic flow when executing a filter rule. Also see
Figure 64 for the logic flow when executing an IP filter.

Configuring a Filter Rule
To configure a filter rule, type its number in Menu 21.1.1 - Filter Rules
Summary and press [ENTER] to open menu 21.1.1.1 for the rule.
To speed up filtering, all rules in a filter set must be of the same class, for example, protocol filters or generic filters. The class of a filter set is determined by the first rule that you create. When applying the filter sets to a port, separate menu fields are provided for protocol and device filter sets. If you include a protocol filter set in a device filter field or vice versa, the Business Secure Router warns you and prevents you from saving.
Configuring a TCP/IP Filter Rule
This section shows you how to configure a TCP/IP filter rule. Using TCP/IP rules, you can base the rule on the fields in the IP and the upper layer protocol, for example, UDP and TCP headers.
To configure TCP/IP rules, select TCP/IP Filter Rule from the Filter Type field and press [ENTER] to open Menu 21.1.1.1 - TCP/IP Filter Rule , as shown in

Configuring a Generic Filter Rule
This section shows you how to configure a generic filter rule. With generic rules you can filter non-IP packets. For IP packets, it is generally easier to use the IP rules directly.
For generic rules, the Business Secure Router treats a packet as a byte stream as opposed to an IP or IPX packet. You specify the portion of the packet to check with the Offset (from 0) and the Length fields, both in bytes. The Business
Secure Router applies the Mask (using the bit-wise-AND action) to the data portion before comparing the result against the Value to determine a match. The
Mask and Value are specified in hexadecimal numbers. Note that it takes two hexadecimal digits to represent a byte, so if the length is 4, the value in either field will take 8 digits, for example, FFFFFFFF .
To configure a generic rule, select Generic Filter Rule in the Filter Type field in menu 21.1.1.1 and press [ENTER] to open Generic Filter Rule , as shown in
Figure 65 .

Filter Types and NAT
There are two classes of filter rules, Generic Filter (Device) rules and protocol filter ( TCP/IP ) rules. Generic filter rules act on the raw data that’s going through between LAN and WAN. Protocol filter rules act on the IP packets. Generic and
TCP/IP filter rules are discussed in more detail in the next section. When NAT
(Network Address Translation) is enabled, the inside IP address and port number
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
150 Chapter 11 Filter configuration are replaced on a connection-by-connection basis, which makes it impossible to know the exact address and port on the wire. Therefore, the Business Secure
Router applies the protocol filters to the native IP address and port number before
NAT for outgoing packets and after NAT for incoming packets. On the other hand, the generic, or device filters are applied to the raw packets that appear on the wire. They are applied at the point when the Business Secure Router is receiving and sending the packets; for example. the interface. The interface can be an Ethernet port or any other hardware port, as illustrated in Figure 69 .
Figure 69 Protocol and Device Filter Sets
Firewall Versus Filters
Firewall configuration is discussed in Chapter 10, “Introducing the firewall,” on page 131 chapters of this manual. Further comparisons are also made between filtering, NAT and the firewall.
Applying a Filter
This section shows you where to apply the filters after you design them. The
Business Secure Router already has filters to prevent NetBIOS traffic from triggering calls, and block incoming Telnet, FTP and HTTP connections.
Note: Nortel recommends that you apply filters if you do not activate the firewall.

Applying LAN Filters
LAN traffic filter sets are useful to block certain packets, reduce traffic and prevent security breaches. Go to menu 3.1 (shown next) and enter the numbers of the filter sets that you want to apply, as appropriate. You can choose up to four filter sets (from twelve) by entering their numbers separated by commas, for example., 3, 4, 6, 11. Input filter sets filter incoming traffic to the Business Secure
Router and output filter sets filter outgoing traffic from the Business Secure
Router.

Firmware and configuration file maintenance
This chapter tells you how to backup and restore your configuration file, as well as upload new firmware and configuration files.
Filename conventions
The configuration file (often called the romfile or rom-0) contains the factory default settings in the menus such as password, DHCP Setup and TCP/IP Setup. It comes with a rom filename extension. Once you have customized the Business
Secure Router settings, they can be saved back to your computer under a filename of your choosing.
The system firmware (sometimes referred to as the ras file) has a bin filename extension. With many FTP and TFTP clients, the filenames are similar to those seen next.
Note: Only use firmware for your Business Secure Router specific model. Refer to the label on the bottom of your Business Secure Router.
ftp> put firmware.bin ras
This is a sample FTP session showing the transfer of the computer file firmware.bin to the Business Secure Router.
ftp> get rom-0 config.cfg
This is a sample FTP session saving the current configuration to the computer file config.cfg.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
180 Chapter 15 Firmware and configuration file maintenance
If your (T)FTP client does not allow you to have a destination filename different than the source, you must rename the firmware and config file names as the
Business Secure Router only recognizes rom-0 and ras. Be sure you keep unaltered copies of both files for later use.
Table 41 is a summary. Note that the internal filename refers to the filename on the Business Secure Router and the external filename refers to the filename not on the Business Secure Router, that is, on your computer, local network or FTP site and so the name (but not the extension) can vary. After uploading new firmware, see the F/W version field in Menu 24.2.1 – System Maintenance – Information to confirm that you have uploaded the correct firmware version. The AT command is the command you enter after you press y when prompted in the SMT menu to go into debug mode.

Using Option 5 from Menu 24 – System Maintenance, you can back up the current Business Secure Router configuration to your computer. Backup is highly recommended once your Business Secure Router is functioning properly. FTP is the preferred method for backing up your current configuration to your computer
NN47923-501
Chapter 15 Firmware and configuration file maintenance 181 since it is faster. You can also perform backup and restore using menu 24 through the console port. Any serial communications program should work fine; however, you must use Xmodem protocol to perform the download or upload and you do not have to rename the files.
Note that terms download and upload are relative to the computer. Download means to transfer from the Business Secure Router to the computer, while upload is a transfer from your computer to the Business Secure Router.

TFTP and FTP over WAN Management Limitations
TFTP, FTP and Telnet over WAN do not work when:
• You disable Telnet service in menu 24.11.
• You apply a filter in menu 3.1 (LAN) or in menu 11.1.4 (WAN) to block
Telnet service.
• The IP address in the Secured Client IP field in menu 24.11 does not match the client IP. If it does not match, the Business Secure Router disconnects the
Telnet session immediately.
• You are running an SMT console session.
Backup configuration using TFTP
The Business Secure Router supports the uploading and downloading of the firmware and the configuration file using TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) over LAN. Nortel does not recommend using TFTP over WAN, although it can work.
To use TFTP, your computer must have both Telnet and TFTP clients. To back up the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next.
1 Use Telnet from your computer to connect to the Business Secure Router and log on. Because TFTP does not have any security checks, the Business Secure
Router records the IP address of the Telnet client and accepts TFTP requests only from this address.
2 Put the SMT in command interpreter (CI) mode by entering 8 in Menu 24 –
System Maintenance .
3 Enter command “sys stdio 0” to disable the SMT timeout, so the TFTP transfer is not interrupted. Enter command “sys stdio 5” to restore the five-minute SMT timeout (default) after the file transfer is complete.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
184 Chapter 15 Firmware and configuration file maintenance
4 Launch the TFTP client on your computer and connect to the Business Secure
Router. Set the transfer mode to binary before starting data transfer.
5 Use the TFTP client (see the example below) to transfer files between the
Business Secure Router and the computer. The file name for the configuration file is “rom-0” (rom-zero, not capital o).
Note: Telnet connection must be active and the SMT must be in CI mode before and during the TFTP transfer. For details on TFTP commands (see “TFTP command example” on page 184 ), consult the documentation of your TFTP client program. For UNIX, use “get” to transfer from the Business Secure Router to the computer and “binary” to set binary transfer mode.
TFTP command example
The following is an example TFTP command: tftp [-i] host get rom-0 config.rom
where “i” specifies binary image transfer mode (use this mode when transferring binary files), “host” is the Business Secure Router IP address, “get” transfers the file source on the Business Secure Router (rom-0, name of the configuration file on the Business Secure Router) to the file destination on the computer and renames it config.rom.

More commands (found in GUI-based FTP clients) are listed earlier in this chapter.
Refer to the “Remote Management” on page 209 section to read about configurations that disallow TFTP and FTP over WAN.
TFTP file upload
The Business Secure Router also supports the uploading of firmware files using
TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) over LAN. Although TFTP also works over
WAN, Nortel does not recommend doing this.
1 To use TFTP, your computer must have both Telnet and TFTP clients. To transfer the firmware and the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next.
NN47923-501
Chapter 15 Firmware and configuration file maintenance 193
2 Use Telnet from your computer to connect to the Business Secure Router and log on. Because TFTP does not have any security checks, the Business Secure
Router records the IP address of the Telnet client and accepts TFTP requests only from this address.
3 Put the SMT in command interpreter (CI) mode by entering 8 in Menu 24 –
System Maintenance .
4 Enter the command sys stdio 0 to disable the management timeout, so the
TFTP transfer is not interrupted. Enter command sys stdio 5 to restore the five-minute management timeout (default) when the file transfer is complete.
5 Launch the TFTP client on your computer and connect to the Business Secure
Router. Set the transfer mode to binary before starting data transfer.
6 Use the TFTP client (see the example below) to transfer files between the
Business Secure Router and the computer. The file name for the firmware is ras.
Note that the telnet connection must be active and the Business Secure Router must be in CI mode before and during the TFTP transfer. For details about TFTP commands (see “TFTP upload command example” on page 193 ), consult the documentation of your TFTP client program. For UNIX, use get to transfer from the Business Secure Router to the computer, put to transfer from the computer to the Business Secure Router, and binary to set binary transfer mode.
TFTP upload command example
The following is an example TFTP command: tftp [-i] host put firmware.bin ras where “i” specifies binary image transfer mode (use this mode when transferring binary files), “host” is the Business Secure Router’s IP address and “put” transfers the file source on the computer (firmware.bin – name of the firmware on the computer) to the file destination on the remote host (ras - name of the firmware on the Business Secure Router).
Commands that appear in GUI-based TFTP clients are listed earlier in this chapter.

Uploading via console port
FTP or TFTP are the preferred methods for uploading firmware to your Business
Secure Router. However, in the event of your network being down, uploading files is only possible with a direct connection to your Business Secure Router via the console port. Under normal conditions, Nortel does not recommend uploading files via the console port, as FTP or TFTP are faster. Any serial communications program should work fine; however, you must use the Xmodem protocol to perform the download or upload.

Using call scheduling (applicable only for PPPoA or PPPoE encapsulation), you can dictate when a remote node is called and for how long.
Introduction
Using the call scheduling feature, the Business Secure Router can manage a remote node and dictate when a remote node is called and for how long. This feature is similar to the scheduler in a video cassette recorder (you can specify a time period for the VCR to record). You can apply up to 4 schedule sets in Menu

Lower numbered sets take precedence over higher numbered sets, thereby avoiding scheduling conflicts. For example, if sets 1, 2, 3, and 4 are applied in the remote node then set 1 takes precedence over sets 2, 3, and 4 as the Business
Secure Router, by default, applies the lowest numbered set first. Set 2 takes precedence over sets 3 and 4, and so on.
You can design up to 12 schedule sets, but you can only apply up to four schedule sets for a remote node.

Triangle Route
The Ideal Setup
When the firewall is on, your Business Secure Router acts as a secure gateway between your LAN and the Internet. In an ideal network topology, all incoming and outgoing network traffic passes through the Business Secure Router to protect your LAN against attacks.
Figure 129 Ideal Setup
Business Secure Router
The Triangle Route Problem
You can have more than one connection to the Internet (through one or more
ISPs). If an alternate gateway is on the LAN (and its IP address is in the same subnet as the Business Secure Router LAN IP address), the triangle route (also called asymmetrical route) problem can occur. The steps below describe the triangle route problem.
A traffic route is a path for sending or receiving data packets between two
Ethernet devices. Some companies have more than one alternate route to one or more ISPs. If the LAN and ISPs are in the same subnet, the triangle route problem can occur. The steps below describe the triangle route problem.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
230 Appendix B Triangle Route
1 A computer on the LAN initiates a connection by sending out a SYN packet to a receiving server on the WAN.
2 The Business Secure Router reroutes the SYN packet through Gateway B on the LAN to the WAN.
3 The reply from the WAN goes directly to the computer on the LAN without going through the Business Secure Router.
As a result, the Business Secure Router resets the connection, as the connection is not acknowledged.

IP aliasing
Using IP alias, you can partition your network into logical sections over the same
Ethernet interface. Your Business Secure Router supports up to three logical LAN interfaces with the Business Secure Router being the gateway for each logical network. By putting your LAN and Gateway B in different subnets, all returning network traffic must pass through the Business Secure Router to your LAN. The following steps describe such a scenario.
1 A computer on the LAN initiates a connection by sending a SYN packet to a receiving server on the WAN.

PPPoE
PPPoE in action
An ADSL modem bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet, RFC
2516) from your PC to an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit), which connects to a DSL Access Concentrator where the PPP session terminates (see Figure 151 ).
One PVC can support any number of PPP sessions from your LAN. PPPoE provides access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP.
Benefits of PPPoE
PPPoE offers the following benefits:
• It provides you with a familiar dial-up networking (DUN) user interface.
• It lessens the burden on the carriers of provisioning virtual circuits all the way to the ISP on multiple switches for thousands of users. For GSTN (PSTN and
ISDN), the switching fabric is already in place.
• It allows the ISP to use the existing dial-up model to authenticate and
(optionally) to provide differentiated services.
Traditional dial-up scenario
Figure 151 depicts a typical hardware configuration in which the PCs use traditional dial-up networking.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
250 Appendix D PPPoE
Figure 151 Single-PC per router hardware configuration
Business Secure Router
How PPPoE works
The PPPoE driver makes the Ethernet appear as a serial link to the PC and the PC runs PPP over the Ethernet, while the modem bridges the Ethernet frames to the
Access Concentrator (AC). Between the AC and an ISP, the AC acts as an L2TP
(Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) LAC (L2TP Access Concentrator) and tunnels the
PPP frames to the ISP. The L2TP tunnel is capable of carrying multiple PPP sessions.
With PPPoE, the VC (Virtual Circuit) is equivalent to the dial-up connection and runs between the modem and the AC, as opposed to all the way to the ISP.
However, the PPP negotiation is between the PC and the ISP.
Business Secure Router as a PPPoE client
When using the Business Secure Router as a PPPoE client, the PCs on the LAN see only the Ethernet and are not aware of the PPPoE. This alleviates the administrator from having to manage the PPPoE clients on the individual PCs.

Appendix F
IP subnetting
IP addressing
Routers route based on the network number. The router that delivers the data packet to the correct destination host uses the host ID.
IP classes
An IP address is made up of four octets (eight bits), written in dotted decimal notation, for example, 192.168.1.1. IP addresses are categorized into different classes. The class of an address depends on the value of its first octet.
• Class A addresses have a 0 in the left-most bit. In a class A address, the first octet is the network number and the remaining three octets make up the host
ID.
• Class B addresses have a 1 in the left-most bit and a 0 in the next left most bit.
In a class B address, the first two octets make up the network number and the two remaining octets make up the host ID.
• Class C addresses begin (starting from the left) with 1 1 0. In a class C address, the first three octets make up the network number and the last octet is the host ID.
• Class D addresses begin with 1 1 1 0. Class D addresses are used for multicasting. (There is also a class “E” address, which is reserved for future use.)

Therefore:
A class C network (8 host bits) can have 2 8 –2 or 254 hosts.
A class B address (16 host bits) can have 2 16 –2 or 65 534 hosts.
A class A address (24 host bits) can have 2 24 –2 hosts (approximately 16 million hosts).
Since the first octet of a class A IP address must contain a 0, the first octet of a class A address can have a value of 0 to 127.
Similarly the first octet of a class B must begin with 10, therefore the first octet of a class B address has a valid range of 128 to 191. The first octet of a class C address begins with 110, and therefore has a range of 192 to 223.

Appendix F IP subnetting 259
Subnet masks
A subnet mask is used to determine which bits are part of the network number, and which bits are part of the host ID (using a logical AND operation). A subnet mask contains 32 bits. If there is a 1 in the bit, then the corresponding bit of the IP address is part of the network number. If a bit in the subnet mask is 0 then the corresponding bit in the IP address is part of the host ID.
Subnet masks are expressed in dotted decimal notation just as IP addresses are.
The natural masks for class A, B, and C IP addresses are as follows.
Table 53 Natural Masks
Class
A
B
C
Natural mask
255.0.0.0
255.255.0.0
255.255.255.0
Subnetting
With subnetting, the class arrangement of an IP address is ignored. For example, a class C address no longer has to have 24 bits of network number and 8 bits of host
ID. With subnetting, some of the host ID bits are converted into network number bits. By convention, subnet masks always consist of a continuous sequence of ones beginning from the left most bit of the mask, followed by a continuous sequence of zeros, for a total number of 32 bits.
Since the mask is always a continuous number of ones beginning from the left, followed by a continuous number of zeros for the remainder of the 32-bit mask, you can simply specify the number of ones instead of writing the value of each octet. This is usually specified by writing a / followed by the number of bits in the mask after the address.
For example, 192.1.1.0 /25 is equivalent to saying 192.1.1.0 with mask
255.255.255.128.

Appendix F IP subnetting 261
Divide the network 192.168.1.0 into two separate subnets by converting one of the host ID bits of the IP address to a network number bit. The borrowed host ID bit can be either 0 or 1, thus giving two subnets; 192.168.1.0 with mask
255.255.255.128 and 192.168.1.128 with mask 255.255.255.128.
Note: In the following charts, shaded or bolded last-octet bit values indicate host ID bits borrowed to form network ID bits. The number of borrowed host ID bits determines the number of subnets you can have.
The remaining number of host ID bits (after borrowing) determines the number of hosts you can have on each subnet.

The remaining 7 bits determine the number of hosts each subnet can have. Host
IDs of all zeros represent the subnet itself and host IDs of all ones are the broadcast address for that subnet, so the actual number of hosts available on each subnet in the example above is 2 7 – 2 or 126 hosts for each subnet.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
262 Appendix F IP subnetting
192.168.1.0 with mask 255.255.255.128 is the subnet itself, and 192.168.1.127 with mask 255.255.255.128 is the directed broadcast address for the first subnet.
Therefore, the lowest IP address that can be assigned to an actual host for the first subnet is 192.168.1.1 and the highest is 192.168.1.126. Similarly the host ID range for the second subnet is 192.168.1.129 to 192.168.1.254.
Example: four subnets
The above example illustrated using a 25-bit subnet mask to divide a class C address space into two subnets. Similarly to divide a class C address into four subnets, you need to borrow two host ID bits to give four possible combinations of 00, 01, 10 and 11. The subnet mask is 26 bits
(11111111.11111111.11111111.
11 000000) or 255.255.255.192. Each subnet contains 6 host ID bits, giving 2 6 -2 or 62 hosts for each subnet (all 0s is the subnet itself, all 1s is the broadcast address on the subnet).

NetBIOS filter commands
The following describes the NetBIOS packet filter commands.
Introduction
NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP or UDP packets that enable a computer to connect to and communicate with a LAN.
For some dial-up services, such as PPPoE or PPPoA, NetBIOS packets cause unwanted calls.
You can configure NetBIOS filters to do the following:
• Allow or disallow the sending of NetBIOS packets from the LAN to the
WAN and from the WAN to the LAN.
• Allow or disallow the sending of NetBIOS packets through VPN connections.
• Allow or disallow NetBIOS packets to initiate calls.

Syntax: sys filter netbios disp
This command gives a read-only list of the current NetBIOS filter modes.
The filter types and their default settings are as follows:

• 0 = LAN to WAN and WAN to LAN
• 3 = IPSec packet pass through
• 4 = Trigger Dial
<on|off> is a switch to enable or disable the filter.
• For type 0, use on to enable the filter and block NetBIOS packets. Use off to disable the filter and forward NetBIOS packets.
• For type 3, use on to block NetBIOS packets from being sent through a
VPN connection. Use off to allow NetBIOS packets to be sent through a
VPN connection.
• For type 4, use on to allow NetBIOS packets to initiate dial backup calls.
Use off to block NetBIOS packets from initiating dial backup calls.
Example commands
Command: sys filter netbios config 0 on
This command blocks LAN to WAN and WAN to LAN NetBIOS packets
Command: sys filter netbios config 1 off
This command forwards WAN to LAN and WAN to LAN NetBIOS packets
Command: sys filter netbios config 3 on

The Business Secure Router has started negotiation with the peer.
The Business Secure Router has received an IKE negotiation request from the peer.
Phase 1 IKE SA process done
Start Phase 2: Quick Mode
!! IKE Negotiation is in process
!! Duplicate requests with the same cookie
!! No proposal chosen
!! Verifying Local ID failed!! Verifying Remote ID failed
IKE uses the ISAKMP protocol (refer to RFC2408 –
ISAKMP) to transmit data. Each ISAKMP packet contains payloads of different types that show in the log (see Table 87 ).
Phase 1 negotiation is finished.
Phase 2 negotiation is beginning using Quick Mode.
The Business Secure Router has begun negotiation with the peer for the connection already, but the IKE key exchange is not finished yet.
The Business Secure Router has received multiple requests from the same peer but it is still processing the first IKE packet from that peer.
The parameters configured for Phase 1 or Phase 2 negotiations do not match. Check all protocols and settings for these phases. For example, one party is using 3DES encryption, but the other party is using
DES encryption, so the connection fails.
During IKE Phase 2 negotiation, both parties exchange policy details, including local and remote
IP address ranges. If these ranges differ, the connection fails.
!! Local / remote IPs of incoming request conflict with rule <#d>
If the security gateway is 0.0.0.0, the Business
Secure Router uses the peer Local Addr as its
Remote Addr. If this IP (range) conflicts with a previously configured rule then the connection is not allowed.
The Local IP Addr range for the peer is invalid.
!! Invalid IP <IP start>/<IP end>
!! Remote IP <IP start> / <IP end> conflicts
If the security gateway is 0.0.0.0, the Business
Secure Router uses Local Addr for the peer as its
Remote Addr. If a peer Local Addr range conflicts with other connections, the Business Secure Router does not accept VPN connection requests from this peer.

Error ID Info
The Business Secure Router limits the number of simultaneous Phase 2 SA negotiations. The IKE key exchange process fails if this limit is exceeded.
The Business Secure Router did not receive a response from the peer and so retransmits the last packet sent.
The Business Secure Router cannot send IKE packets due to a network error.
The Business Secure Router deletes an SA when too many errors occur.
The ID type of an incoming packet does not match the local's peer ID type.
The ID content of an incoming packet does not match the local's peer ID content.
The ID type of an incoming packet does not match any known ID type.
The IP address type or IP address of an incoming packet does not match the peer IP address type or IP address configured on the local router. The log displays the IP address type and IP address of the incoming packet.
The IP address type or IP address of an incoming packet does not match the peer IP address type or IP address configured on the local router. The log displays this router’s configured remote IP address type or IP address that the incoming packet did not match.
The IP address type or IP address of an incoming packet does not match the peer IP address type or IP address configured on the local router. The log displays the configured local IP address type of the router or IP address that the incoming packet did not match.
The router sent a payload type of IKE packet.
The parameters configured for Phase 1 ID content do not match or the parameters configured for the
Phase 2 ID (IP address of single, range or subnet) do not match. Check all protocols and settings for these phases.

LOG MESSAGE DESCRIPTION
!! WAN IP changed to <IP>
!! Cannot find IPSec SA
!! Cannot find outbound SA for rule <%d>
!! Discard REPLAY packet
!! Inbound packet authentication failed
!! Inbound packet decryption failed
Rule <#d> idle time out, disconnect
If the Business Secure Router’s WAN IP changes, all configured “My IP Addr” are changed to “0.0.0.0”. If this field is configured as
0.0.0.0, the Business Secure Router uses the current Business Secure Router WAN IP address (static or dynamic) to set up the VPN tunnel.
The Business Secure Router cannot find a phase 2 SA that corresponds with the SPI of an inbound packet (from the peer); the packet is dropped.
The packet matches the rule index number (#d), but Phase 1 or Phase 2 negotiation for outbound
(from the VPN initiator) traffic is not finished yet.
If the Business Secure Router receives a packet with the wrong sequence number it discards it.
The authentication configuration settings are incorrect. Check them.
The decryption configuration settings are incorrect. Check them.
If an SA has no packets transmitted for a period of time (configurable via CI command), the
Business Secure Router drops the connection.

Appendix L
SIP
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol that handles the setting up, altering, and tearing down of voice and multimedia sessions over the Internet. SIP is used in VoIP (Voice over IP), the sending of voice signals over the Internet Protocol.
SIP signaling is separate from the media for which it handles sessions. The media that is exchanged during the session can use a different path from that of the signaling. SIP handles telephone calls and can interface with traditional circuit-switched telephone networks.
SIP Identities
A SIP account uses an identity (sometimes referred to as a SIP address). A complete SIP identity is called a SIP URI (Uniform Resource Identifier). The URI of a SIP account identifies the SIP account in a way similar to the way an e-mail address identifies an e-mail account. The format of a SIP identity is
SIP-Number@SIP-Service-Domain.
SIP Number
The SIP number is the part of the SIP URI that comes before the @ symbol. A SIP number can use letters like in an e-mail address ([email protected], for example) or numbers like a telephone number ([email protected], for example).
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
334 Appendix L SIP
SIP Service Domain
The SIP service domain of the VoIP service provider is the domain name in a SIP
URI. For example, if the SIP address is [email protected], then
VoIP-provider.com is the SIP service domain.
SIP Call Progression
Table 93 displays the basic steps in the setup and tear down of a SIP call. A calls
B.
Table 93 SIP Call Progression
A
1. INVITE
B
2. Ringing
3. OK
4. ACK
5.Dialogue (voice traffic)
6. BYE
7. OK
1 A sends a SIP INVITE request to B. This message is an invitation for B to participate in a SIP telephone call.
2 B sends a response indicating that the telephone is ringing.
3 B sends an OK response after the call is answered.
4 A then sends an ACK message to acknowledge that B has answered the call.
5 Now A and B exchange voice media (talk).
6 After talking, A hangs up and sends a BYE request.
7 B replies with an OK response confirming receipt of the BYE request and the call is terminated.
NN47923-501
Appendix L SIP 335
SIP Servers
SIP is a client-server protocol. A SIP client is an application program or device that sends SIP requests. A SIP server responds to the SIP requests.
When you use SIP to make a VoIP call, it originates at a client and terminates at a server. A SIP client could be a computer or a SIP phone. One device can act as both a SIP client and a SIP server.
SIP User Agent Server
A SIP user agent server can make and receive VoIP telephone calls. This means that SIP can be used for peer-to-peer communications even though it is a client-server protocol. In Figure 160 , either A or B can act as a SIP user agent client to initiate a call. A and B can also both act as a SIP user agent server to receive the call.
Figure 160 SIP User Agent Server
SIP Proxy Server
A SIP proxy server receives requests from clients and forwards them to another server.
In the following example, client device A calls someone who is using client device C.
1 The client device (A in the figure) sends a call invitation to the SIP proxy server (B).
2 The SIP proxy server forwards the call invitation to C.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
336 Appendix L SIP
Figure 161 SIP Proxy Server
SIP Redirect Server
A SIP redirect server accepts SIP requests, translates the destination address to an
IP address and sends the translated IP address back to the device that sent the request. Then the client device that originally sent the request can send requests to the IP address that it received back from the redirect server. Redirect servers do not initiate SIP requests.
In the following example, client device A calls someone who is using client device C.
1 Client device A sends a call invitation for C to the SIP redirect server (B).
2 The SIP redirect server sends the invitation back to A with C’s IP address (or domain name).
3 Client device A then sends the call invitation to client device C.
NN47923-501
Figure 162 SIP Redirect Server
Appendix L SIP 337
SIP Register Server
A SIP register server maintains a database of SIP identity-to-IP address (or domain name) mapping. The register server checks your username and password when you register.
RTP
When you make a VoIP call using SIP, the RTP (Real time Transport Protocol) is used to handle voice data transfer. See RFC 1889 for details on RTP.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
338 Appendix L SIP
SIP ALG
Some NAT routers can include a SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG). A SIP
ALG allows VoIP calls to pass through NAT by examining and translating IP addresses embedded in the data stream. When a VoIP device (SIP client) behind the SIP ALG registers with the SIP register server, the SIP ALG translates the device’s private IP address inside the SIP data stream to a public IP address. You do not need to use STUN if your VoIP device is behind the SIP ALG.
STUN
Using STUN (Simple Traversal of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) through
Network Address Translators), the VoIP device can the presence and types of
NAT routers, firewalls, or both between it and the public Internet. With STUN, the VoIP device can also find the public IP address that NAT assigned, so the
VoIP device can embed it in the SIP data stream. See “ STUN - Simple Traversal of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Through Network Address Translators
(NATs) ” (RFC 3489) for details on STUN.
Business Secure Router SIP ALG
• SIP clients must be connected to the LAN. A SIP server must be on the WAN.
• You can make and receive calls between the LAN and the WAN. You cannot make a call between the LAN and the LAN.
• The SIP ALG forwards UDP packets with a port 5060 destination to pass through.
• The Business Secure Router forwards SIP audio connections.
NN47923-501
Figure 163 Business Secure Router SIP ALG
Signaling session over UDP port 5060
Audio session using RTP
Appendix L SIP 339
SIP ALG and NAT
The Business Secure Router dynamically creates an implicit port forwarding rule for SIP traffic from the WAN to the LAN.
The SIP ALG on the Business Secure Router supports all NAT mapping types, including One to One , Many to One , Many to Many Overload and Many One to One .
SIP ALG and firewall
The Business Secure Router creates an implicit temporary firewall rule for the dynamic RTP port on the WAN to the SIP client device on the LAN. The firewall rule is created for both directions to allow voice packets. The firewall rule is deleted when the call is terminated.
SIP ALG and Multiple WAN
When the Business Secure Router has two WAN ports and uses the second highest priority WAN port as a back up, it drops SIP connections when the primary WAN port connection fails. The Business Secure Router does not automatically change the SIP connection to the secondary WAN port.
Nortel Business Secure Router 252 Configuration — Advanced
340 Appendix L SIP
If the primary WAN connection fails, the SIP client needs to re-register with the
SIP server through the secondary WAN port to have the SIP connection go through the secondary WAN port.
When the Business Secure Router uses both of the WAN ports at the same time, you can configure a routing policy to have the voice traffic from any IP address with UDP port 5060 and the RTP ports go over a specified WAN port.
Enabling or disabling the SIP ALG
The Business Secure Router SIP ALG is turned off by default to avoid retranslating the IP address of an existing SIP device that is using STUN. If you want to use a SIP client device (a SIP phone or IP phone for example) behind the
Business Secure Router without STUN, use the ip alg enable ALG_SIP command to activate the SIP ALG.
Signaling session timeout
Most SIP clients have an expire mechanism indicating the lifetime of signaling sessions. The SIP UA sends registration packets to the SIP server periodically and keeps the session alive in the Business Secure Router.
If the SIP client does not have this mechanism and makes no call during the
Business Secure Router SIP timeout default (60 minutes), the Business Secure
Router SIP ALG drops any incoming calls after the timeout period. You can use the ip alg siptimeout command to change the timeout value.
Audio session timeout
If no voice packets go through the SIP ALG before the timeout period default (5 minutes) expires, the SIP ALG does not drop the call but blocks all voice traffic and deletes the audio session. You cannot hear anything and you must make a new call to continue your conversation.
