26 3.2.3.4 Management Service HTTP HTTP, shortened form of Hypertext Transfer Protocol, is used to transmit Web page information on Internet. HTTP is located as the application layer in TCP/IP protocol stack. Through HTTP, user could log on the device to access and control it through Web. HTTPS HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) supports HTTP in SSL (Security Socket Layer). HTTPS, depending on SSL, is able to improve the device’s security through following aspects:  Distinguish legal clients from illegal clients through SSL and forbidden illegal clients to access the device;  Encrypt the data exchanged between client and device to guarantee security and integrality of data transmission so as to achieve the safe management of device;  An access control strategy based on certificate attributions is established for further control of client’s access authority so as to further avoid attack for illegal clients. TELNET Telnet is an application layer protocol in TCP/IP protocol family, providing telnet and VT functions through Web. Depending on Server/Client, Telnet Client could send request to Telnet server which provides Telnet services. The device supports Telnet Client and Telnet Server. Connection of Telnet is shown in following figure: Router A now functions as the Telnet Server, but also provides Telnet Client service. Router B and Router A

27 provides Telnet Client function. SSH Telnet adopts TCP to execute Plaintext Transmit, lacking of secure authentication mode and being vulnerable to DoS (Denial of Service), Host IP spoofing and routing spoofing and other malicious attacks, generating great potential security hazards. In comparison with Telnet, STelnet (Secure Telnet), based on SSH2, allows the Client to negotiate with Server so as to establish secure connection. Client could log on Server just as operation of Telnet. Through following measures SSH will realize the secure telnet on insecure network:  Support RAS authentication.  Support encryption algorithms such as DES, 3DES and AES128 to encrypt username password and data transmission. IR900 only supports SSH Server and could connect with multiple SSH Clients. SSH supports local connection and WAN connection.  Local connection. A SSH channel could be established between SSH Client and SSH Server to achieve local connection. Following is a figure showing the establishment of a SSH channel in LAN:  WAN connection. A SSH channel could be established between SSH Client and SSH Server to achieve WAN connection. Following is a figure showing the establishment of a SSH channel in WAN: From the left navigation panel, select Administration << Admin Access, then enter “Management Service” page, as shown below.

28 Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol, Plaintext Transmission, Port: 80. On HTTPS Secure SSL Encryption Transmission Protocol. Port: 443 Off TELNET Standard protocol and main way for Internet telnet service. Port: 23 On SSH Port: 22 Timeout: timeout of SSH session. No operation within this period on SSH Client, SSH Server disconnect. Default: 120s Cipher Mode: set up public key encryption method (currently only RSA supported). Cipher Code Length: set up cipher code length, 512 or 1024. default: 1024 Off 3.2.4 AAA AAA access control is used to control visitors and corresponding services available as long as access is allowed. Same method is adopted to configure three independent safety functions. It provides modularization methods for following services:

29  Authentication: verify whether the user is qualified to access to the network.  Authorization: related with services available.  Charging: records of the utilization of network resources. User may only use one or two safety services provided by AAA. For example, the company just wants identity authentication when employees are accessing to some specified resources, then network administrator only needs to configure authentication server. But if recording of the utilization of network is required, then, a charging server shall be configured. Commonly AAA adopts “Client—Server” structure which is featured by favorable expandability and facilitates centralized management of users’ information, as the following figure shows: 3.2.4.1 Radius Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS), an information exchange protocol with a distributive Client/Server structure, could prevent the network from any disturbance from unauthorized access and is generally applied in various network environments with higher requirements on security and that permit remote user access. The protocol has defined the Radius frame format based on UDP and information transmission mechanism, confirmed UDP Port 1812 as the authentication port. Radius Server generally runs on central computer or workstation; Radius Client generally is located on NAS. Initially Radius is designed and developed against AAA protocol of dial-in users. Along with the diversified development of user access ways, Radius also adapts itself to such changes, including Ethernet access and ADSL access. Access service is rendered through authentication and authorization. Message flow between Radius Client and Server is shown as follows:  User name and passport will be sent to the NAS when the user logs on it;  Radius Client on NAS receives username and password and then sends an authentication request to Radius Server;  Upon the reception of legal request, Radius Server executes authentication and feeds back required user

30 authorization information to Client; For illegal request, Radius Server will feed back Authentication Failed to Client. From the left navigation panel, select Administration << AAA, then enter “Radius” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Server Address Server address (domain name / IP) None Port Consistent with the server port 1812 Key Consistent with the server authentication key None 3.2.4.2 Tacacs+ Tacacs+, or Terminal Access Controller Access Control System, similar to Radius, adopts Client/Server mode to achieve the communication between NAS and Tacacs+ Server. But, Tacacs+ adopts TCP while Radius adopts UDP. Tacacs+ ismainly used for authentication, authorization and charging of access users and terminal users adopting PPP and VPDN. Its typical application is authentication, authorization and charging for terminal users requiring logging on the device to carry out operation. As the Client, the device will have username and password sent to Tacacs+ Server for verification. So long as user verification passed and authorization obtained, logging and operation on the device are allowed. From the left navigation panel, select Administration << AAA, then enter “Tacacs+” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below:

31 Parameters Description Default Server Address Server address (domain name / IP) None Port Consistent with the server port 49 Key Consistent with the server authentication key None 3.2.4.3 LDAP One of the great advantages of LDAP is rapid response to users’ searching request. For instance, user’s authentication which may general a large amount of information sent as the same time. If database is adopted for this purpose, since it is divided into many tables, each time to meet such a simple requirement, the whole database has to be searched, integrated and filtered slowly and disadvantageously. LDAP, simple as a table, only requires username and command and something else. Authentication is met from efficiency and structure. From the left navigation panel, select Administration << AAA, then enter “LDAP” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Name Define server name None Server Address Server address (domain name / IP) None Port Consistent with the server port None Base DN The top of LDAP None directory tree Username Username accessing the server None Password Password accessing the server None Security Encryption mod: None,SSL,StartTLS None Verify Peer Verify Peer Unopened 3.2.4.4 AAA Settings AAA supports following authentication ways:  None: with great confidence to users, legal check omitted, generally not recommended.  Local: Have user’s information stored on NAS. Advantages: rapidness, cost reduction. Disadvantages: storage capacity limited by hardware.  Remote: Have user’s information stored on authentication server. Radius, Tacacs+ and LDAP supported

32 for remote authentication. AAA supports following authorization ways:  None: authorization rejected.  Local: authorization based on relevant attributions configured by NAS for local user’s account.  Tacacs+: authorization done by Tacacs+ Server.  Radius Authentication Based: authentication bonded with authorization, authorization only by Radius not allowed.  LDAP Authorization. From the left navigation panel, select Administration << AAA, then enter “AAA Setting” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Key Items Description radius Authentication and Authorization Server tacacs+ Authentication and Authorization Server ldap Authentication and Authorization Server local The local username and password Authentication 1 should be set consistently with Authorization 1; Authentication 2 should be set consistently with Authorization 2; Authentication 3 should be set consistently with Authorization 3. When configure radius, Tacas+, local at the same time, priority order follow:1 >2 >3. 3.2.5 Configuration Management Here you can back up the configuration parameters, import the desired parameters configuration backup and

33 restore the factory settings of the router. From the left navigation panel, select Administration << Config Management, then enter “Config Management” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Browse Choose the configuration file None Import Import configuration file to router startup-config None Backup running-config Backup running-config file to host. None Backup startup-config Backup startup-config file to host. None Automatically save modified configuration Decide whether to automatically save configuration after modify the configuration. On Restore Default Configuration Restore factory configuration None When import the configuration, the system will filter incorrect configuration files, and save the correct configuration files, when system restarts, it will orderly execute theses configuration files. If the configuration files didn’t be arranged according to effective order, the system won’t enter the desired state. In order not to affect current system running, when performing the import configuration and restore the default configuration, need to reboot the router new configuration will take effect. 3.2.6 SNMP Definition SNMP, or Simple Network Management Protocol, is a standard network management protocol widely used in TCP/IP networks and provides a method of managing the device through the running the central computer of network management software. Features of SNMP:  Simplicity: SNMP adopts polling mechanism, provides the most basic sets of features and could be used in small-scale, rapid, low cost environments. SNMP, with UDP message as the carrier, is supported by a great majority of devices.

34  Powerfulness: objective of SNMP is to ensure the transmission of management information between any two points so as to facilitate administrator’s retrieval of information on any node on network and modification and troubleshooting. Benefits  Network administrators could make use of SNMP to accomplish the information query, modification, troubleshooting and other jobs on any node on network to achieve higher efficiency.  Shielding of physical differences between devices. SNMP only provides the most basic sets of features for mutual independence between administration and the physical properties, network types of devices under administration; therefore, it could realize the uniform management of different devices at a lower cost.  Simple design, lower cost. Simplicity is stressed on addition of software/hardware, types and formats of message on devices so as to minimize the influence and cost on devices caused by running SNMP. Application: management of device is achieved through SNMP Administrator is required to carry out configuration and management of all devices in the same network, which are scattered, making onsite device configuration impracticable. Moreover, in case that those network devices are supplied from different sources and each source has its independent management interfaces (for example, different command lines), the workload of batch configuration of network devices will be considerable. Therefore, under such circumstances, traditional manual ways will result in lower efficiency at higher cost. At that time, network administrator would make use of SNMP to carry out remote management and configuration of attached devices and achieve real-time monitoring. Following is a figure showing how to manage devices through SNMP: To configure SNMP in networking, NMS, a management program of SNMP, shall be configured at the Manager. Meanwhile, Agent shall be configured as well. Through SNMP:  NMS could collect status information of devices whenever and wherever and achieve remote control of devices under management through Agent.  Agent could timely send current status information to NMS report device. In case of any problem, NMS will be notified immediately. SNMP(Simple Network Management Protocol)is an application-layer communication protocol, through SNMP, network administrators can manage network performance, find and solve network

35 problems, and plan network growth. SNMP includes NMS and Agent:  NMS(Network Management Station) is a station which runs client procedure.  Agent is service software which is running in device. The purpose of NMS and Agent is as followed:  NMS can send getRequest, getNextRequest, setRequest packets to Agent, when the Agent receive these packets, it will execute read or write operations according to the type of packet and create Response packet back to NMS.  When device happens to status change (for example port plug), Agent will send Trap packet and report all the events to NMS. 3.2.6.1 SNMP Basic Setting SNMP agent of device supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2 and SNMPv3 at present.  SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 adopt community name to authenticate.  SNMPv3 adopt username and password to authenticate.

When abnormality happened, device will send alarm. User can choose many kinds of exceptions which system defined and choose appropriate notice way to get these exceptions. All the exceptions should be recorded in alarm log so that user troubleshoot problem. According to the type of alarm, it can be divided system alarm and port alarm.  System Alarm: It produces because of system or environment happened to some exception, divided into temperature, hot start, cold start, power failure, power recovery, insufficient memory.  Port Alarm: It produces because of the network interface is up or down, divided into LINK-UP, LINK-DOWN. Alarm status divided into raise, confirm, clear, When alarm occurs , it is in the state of "raise", if the user thinks this alarm is not great importance or the exception has been solved , he can directly set it to "clear" state; if the user is temporarily unable to resolve this anomaly, he can set it to "confirm" state, when the exceptions had been eliminated , it was set to "clear". Alarm level can be divided:  EMERG：Device occurs some faults, it could lead to the system restart.  CRIT：Device occurs some faults which are unrecoverable.  WARN：Device occurs some faults which could affect system function.  NOTICE：Device occurs some faults which could affect system properties.  INFO：Device occurs some normal events.

53 Remote IP Address Set the IP of remote device None 3.3.4 Loopback Loopback Interface is to take place of router’s ID since as long as an active interface is used, when it turns to DOWN, ID of router has to be selected again, resulting to long convergence time of OSPF. Therefore, generally Loopback Interface is recommended as the ID of router. Loopback Interface is a logic and virtual interface. As default, a router has no Loopback Interface which can be created for a number. Those interfaces are the same as physical interfaces on router: addressing information allocated, including their network number in router upgrade and even IP connection could be terminated on them. From navigation panel, select Network >>Loopback, then enter “Loopback” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default IP Address Users can not change 127.0.0.1 Netmask Users can not change 255.0.0.0 Multi-IP Settings Apart from above IP, user can configure other IP address N/A Since loopback interface takes up one IP address, subnet mask is suggested to be 255.255.255.255 for the purpose of saving resources. 3.3.5 DHCP service Along with the continuous expansion of network size and complication of network, number of computers often exceeds distributable IP addresses. Meanwhile, in pace with the extensive application of portable devices and wireless network, position of computer changes frequently, resulting to the frequent upgrade of IP address, leading to a more and more complicated network configuration. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)is a product for such demands.

54 DHCP adopts Client/Server communication mode. Client sends configuration request to Server which feeds back corresponding configuration information, including distributed IP address to the Client to achieve the dynamic configuration of IP address and other information. In typical applications of DHCP, generally one DHCP Server and a number of Clients (PC and Portable Devices) are included, as the following figure shows: When DHCP Client and DHCP Server are in different physical network segment, Client could communicate with Server through DHCP Relay to obtain IP address and other configuration information, as the following figure shows: 3.3.5.1 Status From navigation panel, select Network >>DHCP, then enter “Status” page, as shown below. 3.3.5.2 DHCP Server The duty of DHCP Server is to distribute IP address when Workstation logs on and ensure each workstation is supplied with different IP address. DHCP Server has simplified some network management tasks requiring manual operations before to the largest extent. From navigation panel, select Network >>DHCP, then enter “DHCP Server” page, as shown

55 below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Enable On/Off Off Interface Fastethernet0/1and Fastethernet0/2 available Fastethernet0/1 Starting Address Dynamical distribution of starting IP address N/A Ending Address Dynamical distribution of ending IP address N/A Lease Dynamical distribution of IP validity 1440 DNS Server One or two, or None N/A WINS Setup of WINS, generally left blank N/A Static IP Setup MAC Address Set up a static specified DHCP’s MAC address (different from other MACs to avoid confliction) 0000.0000.0000 IP Address Set up a static specified IP address (within the scope from start IP to end IP) N/A  If the host connected with router chooses to obtain IP address automatically, then such service must be activated. Static IP setup could help a certain host to obtain specified IP address.  InRouter900 F0/2 enable DHCP server by default; obtaining IP address automatically is suggested.

56 3.3.5.3 DHCP Relay Generally, DHCP data packet is unable to be transmitted through router. That is to say, DHCP Server is unable to provide DHCP services for two or more devices connected with a router remotely. Through DHCP relay, DHCP requests and response data packet could go through many routers (Broadband Router). From navigation panel, select Network >>DHCP, then enter “DHCP Relay” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Enable On/Off Off DHCPSever Set DHCP server; up to 4 servers can be configured N/A Source address Address of the interface connected to the DHCP server N/A 3.3.5.4 DHCP Client DHCP Client obtains an IP address assigned by DHCP server after logging onto it. The IP address is obtained through DHCP. From navigation panel, select Network >>DHCP, then enter “DHCP Client” page, as shown below.

57 3.3.6 DNS Services DNA (Domain Name System) is a DDB used in TCP/IP application programs, providing switch between domain name and IP address. Through DNS, user could directly use some meaningful domain name which could be memorized easily and DNS Server in network could resolve the domain name into correct IP address. The device supports to achieve following two functions through domain name service configuration:  DNS Server: for dynamic domain name resolution.  DNS relay: the device, as a DNS Agent, relays DNS request and response message between DNS Client and DNS Server to carry out domain name resolution in lieu of DNS Client. 3.3.6.1 DNS Server Domain Name Server: DNS stands for Domain Name System. It is a core service of the Internet. As a distributed database that can let the domain names and IP addresses mapping to each other, it allows people to more conveniently access to the Internet without the need to memorize the IP string that can be directly read by the computer. From navigation panel, select Network >>DNS, then enter “DNS Server” page, as shown below. In manual setup of DNS Server, if it is blank, then dial to obtain DNS. Generally this item is required to be set when WAN port uses static IP. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Primary DNS User define Primary DNS address N/A Secondary DNS User define Secondary DNS address N/A

58 3.3.6.2 DNS Relay DNS forwarding: DNS forwarding is open by default. You can set the specified [Domain Name <=> IP Address] to let IP address match with the domain name, thus allowing access to the appropriate IP through accessing to the domain name. From navigation panel, select Network >>DNS, then enter “DNS Relay” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Enable DNS Relay On/Off On Host Domain Name N/A IP Address 1 Set IP Address 1 N/A IP Address 2 Set IP Address 2 N/A Once DHCP is turned on, DNS relay will be turned on as default and can’t be turned off; to turn off DNS rely, DHCP Server has to be closed firstly. 3.3.7 Dynamic Domain Name DDNS is the abbreviation of Dynamic Domain Name Server. DDNS maps user's dynamic IP address to a fixed DNS service. When the user connects to the network, the client program will pass the host’s dynamic IP address to the server program on the service provider’s host through information passing. The server program is responsible for providing DNS service and realizing dynamic DNS. It means that DDNS captures user's each change of IP address and matches it with the domain name, so that other Internet users can communicate through the domain name. What end customers have to remember is the domain name assigned by the dynamic domain name registrar, regardless of how it is achieved. DDNS serves as a client tool of DDNS and is required to coordinate with DDNS Server.

59 Before the application of this function, a domain name shall be applied for and registered on a proper website such as www.3322.org. After the settings of dynamic domain name on WBR204n, a corresponding relationship between the domain name and IP address of WAN port of the device is established. IR900 DDNS service types include DynAccess, QDNS (3322)-Dynamic, QDNS (3322)-Static, DynDNS-Dynamic, DynDNS-Static and NoIP. 3.3.7.1DDNS From navigation panel, select Network >>DDNS, then enter “DDNS” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Method Name User define None Service Type Select the domain name service providers None User Name User name assigned in the application for dynamic domain name None Password Password assigned in the application for dynamic domain name None Host Name Host name assigned in the application for dynamic domain name None Method The update method of specified interface None If the IP address obtained via router dialing is a private address, the dynamic DNS function is not available.

60 3.3.7.2 DDNS Application Example Example: an IR900 is connected with IP of public network via dial mode, set DDNS to address map the dynamic IP of users on a fixed domain name service. Configuration procedures of router are as follows: First: Configure the parameters of dynamic domain name of equipment. Refer to Fig. 3-3-7-2 for configuration in case of tailored domain name parameters and refer to Fig. 3-3-7-3 for configuration in case of general domain name parameters. Fig. 3-3-7-2 Dynamic Domain Name (tailored domain name parameter) Fig. 3-3-7-3 Dynamic Domain Name (general domain name parameter) Second: Wait for minutes when dynamic domain names are configured and application is in storage, then ping the domain name to confirm the successful configuration of dynamic domain name, as shown below:

62 3.4 Link Backup 3.4.1 SLA 1. Basic Concepts and Principles Under normal circumstances, the edge router can detect if the link linked to the ISP is in fault. If the network linking to one ISP is in fault, another ISP will be used to transmit all the data streams. However, if the link of an ISP is normal and the infrastructure fails, the edge router will continue to use this route. Then, the data is no longer reachable. One feasible solution is to using static routing or policy-based routing to first test the reachability of important destination. If it is unreachable, the static routing will be deleted. The reachability test can be performed with InHand SLA to continuously check the reachability of ISP and be associated with static routing. Basic principles of InHand SLA: 1.Object track: Track the reachability of the specified object. 2. SLA probe: The object track function can use InHand SLA to send different types of detections to the object. 3. Policy-based routing using route mapping table: It associates the track results with the routing process. 4. Using static routing and track options. SLA Configuration Steps Step 1: Define one or more SLA operations (detection). Step 2: Define one or more track objects to track the status of SLA operation. Step 3: Define measures associated with track objects. From navigation panel, select Link Backup>>SLA, then enter “SLA” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Index 1 SLAindex orID Type Detection type, default is icmp-echo, the user cannot change icmp-echo IP Address Detected IP address None Data Size User define data size 56 Interval User define detection interval 30

63 Timeout (ms) User define,Timeout for detection to fail 5000 Connecutive Detection retries 5 Life Default is “forever”, user cannot change forever Start-time Detection Start-time, select “now” or None now 3.4.2 Track Module Track is designed to achieve linkage consisting of application module, Track module and monitoring module. Linkage refers to achieve the linkage amongst different modules through the establishment of linkage items, namely, the monitoring module could trigger application module to take a certain action through Track module. Monitoring module is responsible for detection of link status, network performance and notification to application module of detection results via Track module. Once the application module finds out any changes in network status, corresponding measures will be taken on a timely basis so as to avoid interruption of communication or reduction of service quality. Track module is located between application module and monitoring module with main functions of shielding the differences of different monitoring modules and providing uniform interfaces for application module. Track Module and Monitoring Module Linkage Through configuration, the linkage relationship between Track module and monitoring module is established. Monitoring module is responsible for detection of link status, network performance and notification to application module of detection results via Track module so as to carry out timely change of the status of Track item:  Successful detection, corresponding track item is Positive  Failed detection, corresponding track item is Negative Track Module and Application Module Linkage Through configuration, the linkage relationship between Track module and application module is established. In case of any changes in track item, a notification requiring correspondent treatment will be sent to application module. Currently, application modules which could achieve linkage with track module include: VRRP, static routing, strategy-based routing and interface backup. Under certain circumstances, once any changes in Track item are founded, if a timely notification is sent to application module, then communication may be interrupted due to routing’s failure in timely restoration and other reasons. For example, Master router in VRRP backup group could monitor the status of upstream interface through Track. In case of any fault in upstream interface, Master router will be notified to reduce priority so that Backup router may ascend to the new Master to be responsible for relay of message. Once upstream interface is recovered, so long as Track immediately sends a message to original Master router to recover priority, then the router will take over the task of message relay. At that time, message relay failure may occur since the router has not restored to the upstream router. Under such circumstances, user to configure that once any changes take place in Track item, delays a period of time to notify the application module. From navigation panel, select Link Backup>>Track, then enter “Track” page, as shown below.

64 Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Index Track 1 index orID Type Default “sla”,User cannot change sla SLA ID Defined SLA Index or ID None Interface Detect interface’s up/down state cellular 1 Negative Delay (m) In case of negative status, switching can be delayed based on the set time (0 represents immediate switching), rather than immediate switching. 0 Positive Delay (m) In case of failure recovery, switching can be delayed based on the set time (0 represents immediate switching), rather than immediate switching. 0 3.4.3 VRRP Default route provides convenience for user’s configuration operations but also imposes high requirements on stability of the default gateway device. All hosts in the same network segment are set up with an identical default route with gateway being the next hop in general. When fault occurs on gateway, all hosts with the gateway being default route in the network segment can’t communicate with external network. Increasing exit gateway is a common method for improving system reliability. Then, the problem to be solved is how to select route among multiple exits. VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) adds a set of routers that can undertake gateway function into a backup group to form a virtual router. The election mechanism of VRRP will decide which router to undertake the forwarding task and the host in LAN is only required to configure the default gateway for the virtual router. VRRP will bring together a set of routers in LAN. It consists of multiple routers and is similar to a virtual router in respect of function. According to the vlan interface ip of different network segments, it can be virtualized into multiple virtual routers. Each virtual router has an ID number and up to 255 can be virtualized. VRRP has the following characteristics: • Virtual router has an IP address, known as the Virtual IP address. For the host in LAN, it is only required to know the IP address of virtual router, and set it as the address of the next hop of the default route.

65 • Host in the network communicates with the external network through this virtual router. • 1 router will be selected from the set of routers based on priority to undertake the gateway function. Other routers will be used as backup routers to perform the duties of gateway for the gateway router in case of fault of gateway router, thus to guarantee uninterrupted communication between the host and external networkVRRP Networking Scheme： As shown in Figure above, Router A and Router C compose a virtual router. This virtual router has its own IP address. The host in LAN will set the virtual router as the default gateway. Router A or Router C, the one with the highest priority, will be used as the gateway router to undertake the function of gateway. Another router will be used as a Backup router.Monitor interface function of VRRP better expands backup function: the backup function can be offered when interface of a certain router has fault or other interfaces of the router are unavailable. When interface connected with the uplink is at the state of Down or Removed, the router actively reduces its priority so that the priority of other routers in the backup group is higher and thus the router with highest priority becomes the gateway for the transmission task. 3.4.3.1 VRRP Configuration From navigation panel, select Link Backup>>VRRP, then enter “VRRP” page, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Enable Enable/Disable Enable Virtual Route ID User define Virtual Route ID None Interface Configure the interface of Virtual Route None Virtual IP Address Configure the IP address of Virtual Route None

66 Parameters Description Default Priority The VRRP priority range is 0-255 (a larger number indicates a higher priority). The router with higher priority will be more likely to become the gateway router. 100 Advertisement Interval Heartbeat package transmission time interval between routers in the virtual ip group 1 Preemption Mode If the router works in the preemptive mode, once it finds that its own priority is higher than that of the current gateway router, it will send VRRP notification package, resulting in re-election of gateway router and eventually replacing the original gateway router. Accordingly, the original gateway router will become a Backup router. Enable Track ID Trace Detection, select the definedTrack index or ID None 3.4.3.2 VRRP Typical Configuration Example 1. Networking Demand Mainframe A makes VRRP backup combined with router A and router B as its default gateway to visit the mainframe B on internet. VRRP backup is composed of:  Backup group ID 1  IP address of backup group virtual router 192.168.2.254/24  Interchanger A Master  Interchanger B backup interchanger preemptive allowable Router Ethernet interface connected with hostA IP address of interface connected with hostA Priority Working mode R_A F0/1 192.168.2.1 110 preemptive R_B F0/1 192.168.2.2 100 preemptive 2.

Configuration Procedures (1) Configure router A First: Configure F0/1 Click navigation panel “Link Backup>>VRRP”, enter “VRRP” interface, configure VRRP, as shown in the following figure: Click navigation panel “Link Backup>>VRRP”, enter “VRRP” interface, examine VRRP, as shown in the following figure: Second: Configure F0/2 Click navigation panel “Internet>>Ethernet Interface”, enter “Ethernet Interface 0/2”, configure Ethernet interface 0/2, as shown in the following figure:

68 (2) Configure router B: First: Configure F0/1 Click navigation panel “Link Backup>>VRRP”, enter “VRRP” interface, configure VRRP, as shown in the following figure: Click navigation panel “Link Backup>>VRRP”, enter “VRRP” interface, examine VRRP, as shown in the following figure: Second: Configure F0/2

69 Click navigation panel “Internet>>Ethernet Interface”, enter “Ethernet Interface 0/2”, configure Ethernet interface 0/2, as shown in Fig. 3-4-3-7: Default gateway of mainframe A is 192.168.2.254. Router A functions as the gateway under normal working conditions and router B will take over the function when router A closes down or breaks down. Setting preemption is to keep the function of router A as gateway under Master when router A returns to work. 3.4.4 Interface Backup Interface backup refers to backup relationship formed between appointed interfaces in the same equipment. When service transmission can’t be carried out normally due to fault of a certain interface or lack of bandwidth, rate of flow can be switched to backup interface quickly and the backup interface will carry out service transmission and share network flow so as to raise reliability of communication of data equipment. When link state of main interface is switched from up to down, system will wait for preset delay first instead of switching to link of backup interface immediately. Only if the state of main interface still keeps down after the delay, system will switch to link of backup interface. Otherwise, system will not switch. After link state of main interface is switched from down to up, system will wait for preset delay first instead of switching back to main interface immediately. Only if state of main interface still keeps up after the delay, system will switch back to main interface. Otherwise, system will not switch. 3.4.4.1 Interface Backup From navigation panel, select Link Backup>>Interface Backup, then enter “Interface Backup” page, as shown below.

The distance parameter indicates the priority, the smaller the numerical the more the priorities.

73 Step 7: Pull up cable to make malfunction of wired internet, then router can have access to internet via dial-up through cellular; cable internet can be applied once again when cable is set again. 3.5 Routing 3.5.1 Static Route Static routing is a special routing that requires your manual setting. After setting static routing, the package for the specified destination will be forwarded according to the path designated by you. In the network with relatively simple networking structure, it is required to set static routing to achieve network interworking. Proper setting and use static routing can improve the performance of network and can guarantee bandwidth for important network applications. Disadvantages of static routing: It cannot automatically adapt to the changes in the network topology. The network failure or changes in topology may cause the route unreachable and network interrupted. Then, you are required to manually modify the setting of static routing. Static Routing performs different purposes in different network environments.  When the network structure is comparatively simple, the network can work normally only with Static Routing.  While in complex network environment, Static Routing can improve the performance of network and ensure bandwidth for important application.  Static Routing can be used in VPN examples, mainly for the management of VPN route. 3.5.1.1 Static Routing Status From navigation panel, select Routing>>Static Routing, then enter “Route Table” page, as shown below.

74 3.5.1.2 Static Routing From navigation panel, select Routing>>Static Routing, then enter “Static Routing,” page, as shown below. Add/delete additional Router static routing. Normally users don not need to configure this item. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Destination address Enter the destination IP address need to be reached 0.0.0.0 Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask of destination address need to be reached 0.0.0.0 Interface The interface through which the data reaches the destination address Cellular1 Gateway IP address of the next router to be passed by before the input data reaches the destination address None Distance Priority, smaller value contributes to higher priority None Track ID Select the definedTrack index or ID None 3.5.1.3 Static Routing Application Example Example: Establish static routing between two LAN for their intercommunication; refer to the following figure for topological graph.

75 Configuration procedures of router are as follows: Step 1: Configure IR900a, the parameter configuration is shown in the following figure. Step 2: Configure IR900b, parameter configuration is as follows: Step 3: PC1 and PC2 can be intercommunicated, adding static routing is successful. 3.5.2 Dynamic Routing

76 The routing table entry on dynamic router is obtained in accordance with certain algorithm optimization through the information exchange between the connected routers, while the routing information is continuously updating in certain time slot so as to adapt to the continuously changing network and obtain the optimized pathfinding effects at any time. In order to achieve efficient pathfinding of IP packet, IETF has developed a variety of pathfinding protocols, including Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Routing Information Protocol (RIP) for Autonomous System (AS) interior gateway protocol. The so-called autonomous system refers to the collection of hosts, routers and other network devices under the management of the same entity (e.g. schools, businesses, or ISP)3.5.2.1 Dymamic Routing status From navigation panel, select Routing>>Dynamic Routing, then enter “Route Table” page,as shown below. 3.5.2.2 RIP RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a relatively simple interior gateway protocol (IGP), mainly used for smaller networks. The complex environments and large networks general do not use RIP. RIP uses Hop Count to measure the distance to the destination address and it is called RoutingCost. In RIP, the hop count from the router to its directly connected network is 0 and the hop count of network to be reached through a router is 1 and so on. In order to limit the convergence time, the specified RoutingCost of RIP is an integer in the range of 0~15 and hop count larger than or equal to 16 is defined as infinity, which means that the destination network or host is unreachable. Because of this limitation, the RIP is not suitable for large-scale networks. To improve performance and prevent routing loops, RIP supports split horizon function. RIP also introduces routing obtained by other routing protocols. It is specified in RFC1058 RIP that RIP is controlled by three timers, i.e. Period update, Timeout and Garbage-Collection: Each router that runs RIP manages a routing database, which contains routing entries to reach all reachable destinations. The routing entries contain the following information:  Destination address: IP address of host or network.

77  Address of next hop: IP address of interface of the router’s adjacent router to be passed by on the way to reach the destination.  Output interface: The output interface for the router to forward package.  RoutingCost: Cost for the router to reach the destination.  Routing time: The time from the last update of router entry to the present. Each time the router entry is updated, the routing time will be reset to 0. From navigation panel, select Routing>>Dynamic Routing, then enter “RIP” page,as shown below. Advanced Options are shown as below.

78 Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Enable Enable/ Disable Disable Update timer It defines the interval to send routing updates 30 Timeout timer It defines the routing aging time. If no update package on a routing is received within the aging time, the routing’s Routing Cost in the routing table will be set to 16. 180 Clear Timer It defines the time from the time when the RoutingCost of a routing becomes 16 to the time when it is deleted from the routing table. In the time of Garbage-Collection, RIP uses 16 as the RoutingCost for sending updates of the routing. In case of timeout of Garbage-Collection and the routing still has not been updated, the routing will be completely removed from the routing table. 120 Version Version number of RIP V2

79 Network None The first IP addressand subnet mask of the segment Advanced Options Filter In Only send RIP packets do not receive RIP packets Disable Filter Out RIP packets sent to the default routing interface Disable Default-Information Originate Default information will be released Disable Default Metric The default overhead of the router reach to destination 1 Distance Set the RIP routing administrative distance 120 Redistribute router Introduce the directly connected, static, OSPF protocols into the RIP protocol Disable Passivie Default None Interfaceonly receivesRIP packetsdo notsend RIP packets Neighbor For neighboring routers, after configuring neighbors, rip package will only be sent to neighboring routers None 3.5.2.3 OSPF Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a link status based interior gateway protocol developed by IETF. Router ID If a router wants to run the OSPF protocol, there should be a Router ID. Router ID can be manually configured. If no Router ID is configured, the system will automatically select one IP address of interface as the Router ID. The selection order is as follows:  If a Loopback interface address is configured, then the last configured IP address of Loopback interface will be used as the Router ID;  If no LoopBack interface address is configured, choose the interface with the biggest IP adress from other interfaces as the Router ID. OSPF has five types of packets:  Hello Packet  DD Packet (Database Description Packet)  LSR packet (Link State Request Packet)  LSU Packet (Link State Update Packet)  LSAck packet (Link State Acknowledgment Packet) Neighbor and Neighboring After the start-up of OSPF router, it will send out Hello packets through the OSPF interface. Upon receipt of Hello packet, OSPF router will check the parameters defined in the packet. If both are consistent, a neighbor relationship will be formed. Not all both sides in neighbor relationship can form the adjacency relationship. It is determined based on the network type. Only when both sides successfully exchange DD packets and LSDB synchronization is achieved, the adjacency in the true

80 sense can be formed. LSA describe the network topology around a router, LSDB describe entire network topology. From navigation panel, select Routing>>Dynamic Routing, then enter “OSPF” page,as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Enable Enable/Disable Disable Router ID RouterID oftheoriginating the None LSA Advanced Options Default Metric The default overhead of the router reach to destination None Redistribute Router Introduce the directly connected, static, RIP protocols into the OSPF protocol Disable Network IP Address IP Address of local network None Subnet Mask Subnet Mask of IP Address of local network None Area ID Area ID of router which originating LSA None Interface Interface The interfae None Hello Interval Send interval of Hello packet. If the the Hello time between two adjacent routers is different, you can not establish a neighbor relationship. None Dead Interval Dead Time. If no Hello packet is received from the neighbors, the neighbor is considered failed. If dead times of two adjacent routers are different, the neighbor relationship can not be established. None Network Select OSPF network type None

81 Priority Set the OSPF priority of interface None Retransmit Interval When the router notifies an LSA to its neighbor, it is required to make acknowledgement. If no acknowledgement packet is received within the retransmission interval, this LSA will be retransmitted to the neighbor. None 3.5.2.4 Filtering Route Click navigation panel “Routing>>Dynamic Routing” menu, enter “Filtering Route” interface, as shown in the following figure.

Second: Configure IR900b and refer to the following figure for parameter configuration.

84 Third: PC1 and PC2 can be intercommunicated and adding dynamic routing is successful. 3.5.3 Multicast Routing Multicast routing sets up an acyclic data transmission route from data source end to multiple receiving ends, which refers to the establishment of a multicast distribution tree. The multicast routing protocol is used for establishing and maintaining the multicast routing and forrelaying multicast data packet correctly and efficiently. 3.5.3.1 Basic The basic is mainly to define the source of multicast routing. From navigation panel, select Routing>>Multicast Routing, then enter “Basic” page,as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default

85 Enable Open/Close Close Source IP Address of Source None Netmask Netmask of Source 255.255.255.0 Interface Interface of Source cellular1 3.5.3.2 IGMP IGMP, being a multicast protocol in Internet protocol family, which is used for IP host to report its constitution to any directly adjacent router, defines the way for multicast communication of hosts amongst different network segments with precondition that the router itself supports multicast and is used for setting and maintaining the relationship between multicast members between IP host and the directly adjacent multicast routing. IGMP defines the way for maintenance of member information between host and multicast routing in a network segment. In the multicast communication model, sender, without paying attention to the position information of receiver, only needs to send data to the appointed destination address, while the information about receiver will be collected and maintained by network facility. IGMP is such a signaling mechanism for a host used in the network segment of receiver to the router. IGMP informs the router the information about members and the router will acquire whether the multicast member exists on the subnet connected with the router via IGMP. Function of multicast routing protocol:  Discovering upstream interface and interface closest to the source for the reason that multicast routing protocol only cares the shortest route to the source.  Deciding the real downstream interface via (S, G). A multicast tree will be finished after all routers acquire their upstream and downstream interfaces with root being router directly connected with the source host and branches being routers directly connected via subnet with member discovered by IGMP.  Managing multicast tree. The message can be transferred once the address of next hop can be acquired by unicast routing, while multicast refers to relay message generated by source to a group. From navigation panel, select Routing>>Multicast Routing, then enter “IGMP” page,as shown below.

86 3.5.3.3 Multicast Routing Application Example Example: Set router to receive the multicast data from network and refer to the following figure for topological graph. Configuration procedures of router are as follows: Step 1: Start multicast routing and configure parameters for multicast routing, as shown in the following figure.

87 Step 2: Configure IGMP parameter, as shown in the following figure. 3.6 Firewall With the expansion of network and increase in flow, the control over network safety and the allocation of bandwidth become the important contents of network management. The firewall function of the router implements corresponding control to data flow at entry direction (from Internet to local area network) and exit direction (from local area network to Internet) according to the content features of message (such as: protocol style, source/destination IP address, etc.) and ensures safe operation of router and host in local area network. 3.6.1 Access Control ACL, namely access control list, implements permission or prohibition of access for appointed data flow (such as prescribed source IP address and account number, etc.) via configuration of a series of matching rules so

88 as to filter the network interface data. After message is received by port of router, the field is analyzed according to ACL rule applied on the current port. And after the special message is identified, the permission or prohibition of corresponding packet is implemented according to preset strategy. ACL classifies data packages through a series of matching conditions. These conditions can be data packages’ source MAC address, destination MAC address, source IP address, destination IP address, port number, etc. The data package matching rules as defined by ACL can also be used by other functions requiring flow distinguish. From navigation panel, select Firewall>>ACL, then enter “ACL” page,as shown below. Click <Add> to add new access control list, as shown below. Page description is shown below:

89 Parameters Description Default Type Standard ACL can block all communication flows from a network, or allow all communication flows from a particular network, or deny all communication flows of a protocol stack (e.g. IP) of. The extended ACL provides a wider range of control than that provided by the standard ACL. For example, if the network administrator wants to "allow external Web communication flows to pass through and reject external communication flows, e.g. FTP and Telnet”, the extended ACL can be used to achieve the objective. The standard ACL can not be controlled so precisely. Extended ID User define Permit Action Permit/Deny Permit Protocol Access Control Protocol ip Source IP Address IP Address of Source None Destination IP IP Address of Destination None 3.6.1.1 ACL Click navigation panel “Firewall>>ACL” menu, enter “ACL” interface, as shown in the following figure. Click <Add>, enter the new configuration interface and add new ACL list, as shown in the following figure.

90 Page information is shown below: Parameter Name Description Default Val ue Type Standard ACL can prevent all the communication flow of some network or permit all the communication flow of some network or refuse all the communication flow of some protocol stack (like IP). Expanded ACL can provide more extensive control scope than standard ACL does. For instance, network manager can make use of expanded ACL instead of standard ACL to permit Web communication flow, refuse FTP and Telnet because the control of ACL is not as desired.

Configuration procedures of router are as follows: Step 1: Open “ACL”, click <add> for access control list and configure parameters as shown in the following figure. Step 2: Click <Apply and Store> when parameter configuration is done, then ID “101” can be seen on the newly established access control list. Step 3: Select “cellular1” in “Port Name” of “Network Port List”, select “101” in “Out Rules”, click <add> and store, as shown in the following figure.

92 3.6.2 NAT NAT can achieve Internet access by multiple hosts within the LAN through one or more public network IP addresses. It means that few public network IP addresses represent more private network IP addresses, thus saving public network IP addresses. From navigation panel, select Firewall>>NAT, then enter “NAT” page,as shown below.

93 Click <Add>to add new NAT rules, as shown below. Page description is shown below: Parameters Description Default Action SNAT：Source NAT： Translate IP packet's source address into another address DNAT：Destination NAT: Map a set of local internal addresses to a set of legal global addresses. 1:1NAT： Transfer IP address one to one. SNAT Source Network Inside：Inside address Outside：Outside address Inside Translation Type Select the Translation Type IP to IP Private network IP address refers to the IP address of internal network or host, while public network IP address is a globally unique IP address on the Internet. RFC 1918 three IP address blocks for the private network as follows: Class A: 10.0.0.0 ~ 10.255.255.255 Class B: 172.16.0.0~ 172.31.255.255 Class A: 192.168.0.0~ 192.168.255.255 The addresses within the above three ranges will not be allocated on the Internet. Therefore, they can be freely used in companies or enterprises without the need to make application to the operator or registration center 3.6.2.1 NAT Click navigation panel “Firewall>>NAT” menu, enter “NAT” interface, as shown in the following figure.

94 NAT rule is to apply ACL into address pool, and only address matched with ACL can be translated. Click <Add>, enter new configuration interface and add new NAT rules, as shown in the following figure. Page information is shown below:

95 Parameter Name Description Default Val ue Action SNAT: Source address translation: to translate the source address of IP data package to another address. DNAT: Destination address translation: to map a group of local home address to a group of legal global address. 1:1NAT: 1 to 1 translation of IP address SNAT Source Network Inside: home address Outside: foreign address Inside Translation Type Select the translation type of NAT IP to IP Private network IP address refers to the IP address of home network or mainframe, and IP address of public network refers to the only global IP address on the internet. RFC 1918 reserves 3 IP addresses for private network, as shown followed: A: 10.0.0.0~10.255.255.255 B: 172.16.0.0~172.31.255.255 C: 192.168.0.0~192.168.255.255 The addresses in the three types above will not be distributed on the internet, so they can be used in companies or enterprises instead of being applied to operator or registration center. 3.6.2.2 NAT Application Example Example: a router IR900 has access to internet via dial-up; FE 0/2 is connected with a server whose IP address is 192.168.2.23. Configure router to make public network have access to the server. (Port mapping way) configuration of router is as follows: (DMZ way) configuration of router is as follows:

96 3.7Qos In the traditional IP network, all packets are treated equally without distinction. Each network device uses first in first out strategy for packet processing. The best-effort network sends packets to the destination, but it cannot guarantee transmission reliability and delay. QoS can control network traffic, avoid and manage network congestion, and reduce packet dropping rate. Some applications bring convenience to users, but they also take up a lot of network bandwidth. To ensure all LAN users can normally get access to network resources, IP traffic control function can limit the flow of specified host on local network. QoS provides users with dedicated bandwidth and different service quality for different applications, greatly improving the network service capabilities. Users can meet various requirements of different applications like guaranteeing low latency of time-sensitive business and bandwidth of multimedia services. QoS can guarantee high priority data frames receiving, accelerate high-priority data frame transmission, and ensure that critical services are unaffected by network congestion. IR900 supports four service levels, which can be identified by receiving port of data frame, Tag priority and IP priority. From navigation panel, select Qos>>Traffic Control, then enter “Traffic Control” page,as shown below.

Configuration procedures of router are as follows: Step 1: Add “type” to describe downloading flow, for example, the IP address of local mainframe appointed shall be the destination. Step 2: Add “strategy” to guarantee the bandwidth and local preference of each “type”. Step 3: Select the out-port in strategy application and distribute a out maximum bandwidth for port, as shown in the following figure. 3.8VPN VPN is a new technology that rapidly developed in recent years with the extensive application of Internet. It is for building a private dedicated network on a public network. 'Virtuality" mainly refers to that the network is a logical network. Two Basic Features of VPN:  Private: the resources of VPN are unavailable to unauthorized VPN users on the internet; VPN can ensure and protect its internal information from external intrusion.

100  Virtual: the communication among VPN users is realized via public network which, meanwhile can be used by unauthorized VPN users so that what VPN users obtained is only a logistic private network. This public network is regarded as VPN Backbone. Fundamental Principle of VPN The fundamental principle of VPN indicates to enclose VPN message into tunnel with tunneling technology and to establish a private data transmission channel utilizing VPN Backbone so as to realize the transparent message transmission. Tunneling technology encloses the other protocol message with one protocol. Also, encapsulation protocol itself can be enclosed or carried by other encapsulation protocols. To the users, tunnel is logical extension of PSTN/link of ISDN, which is similar to the operation of actual physical link. The common tunnel protocols include L2TP, PPTP, GRE, IPSec, MPLS, etc. 3.8.1IPSec A majority of data contents are Plaintext Transmission on the Internet, which has many potential dangers such as password and bank account information stolen and tampered, user identity imitated, suffering from malicious network attack, etc. After disposal of IPSec on the network, it can protect data transmission and reduce risk of information disclosure. IPSec is a group of open network security protocol made by IETF, which can ensure the security of data transmission between two parties on the Internet, reduce the risk of disclosure and eavesdropping, guarantee data integrity and confidentiality as well as maintain security of service transmission of users via data origin authentication, data encryption, data integrity and anti-replay function on the IP level. IPSec, including AH, ESP and IKE, can protect one and more date flows between hosts, between host and gateway, and between gateways. The security protocols of AH and ESP can ensure security and IKE is used for cipher code exchange. IPSec can establish bidirectional Security Alliance on the IPSec peer pairs to form a secure and interworking IPSec tunnel and to realize the secure transmission of data on the Internet. 3.8.1.1IPsec Phase 1 IKE can provide automatic negotiation cipher code exchange and establishment of SA for IPSec to simplify the operation and management of IPSec. The self-protection mechanisms of IKE can complete identity authentication and key distribution in an insecure network. From navigation panel, select VPN>>IPSec, then enter “IPSec Phase 1” page,as shown below.

105 No need to fill in Local ID Type and Remote ID Type. Step 2: IPSec Setting Phase 2 From navigation panel, select VPN>>IPSec, then enter “IPSec Setting Phase 2” page,as shown below. Step 3: IPSec Setting From navigation panel, select VPN>>IPSec, then enter “IPSec Setting” page,as shown below.

107 From navigation panel, select VPN>>IPSec, then enter “IPSec Setting Phase 2” page,as shown below. Step 3: IPSec Setting From navigation panel, select VPN>>IPSec, then enter “IPSec Setting” page,as shown below. (3) VPN Status Checking From navigation panel, select VPN>>IPSec, then enter “IPSec Status” page,as shown below. 3.8.2GRE

108 Generic Route Encapsulation (GRE) defines the encapsulation of any other network layer protocol on a network layer protocol. GRE could be used as the L3TP of VPN to provide a transparent transmission channel for VPN data. In simple terms, GRE is a tunneling technology which provides a channel through which encapsulated data message could be transmitted and encapsulation and decapsulation could be realized at both ends. GRE tunnel application networking shown as the following figure: Along with the extensive application of IPv4, to have messages from some network layer protocol transmitted on IPv4 network, those messages could by encapsulated by GRE to solve the transmission problems between different networks. In following circumstances GRE tunnel transmission:  GRE tunnel could transmit multicast data packets as if it were a true network interface. Single use of IPSec can not achieve the encryption of multicast.  A certain protocol adopted can not be routed.  A network of different IP address shall be required to connect other two similar networks. GRE application example: combined with IPSec to protect multicast data GRE can encapsulate and transmit multicast data in GRE tunnel, but IPSec, currently, could only carry out encryption protection against unicast data. In case of multicast data requiring to be transmitted in IPSec tunnel, a GRE tunnel could be established first for GRE encapsulation of multicast data and then IPSec encryption of encapsulated message so as to achieve the encryption transmission of multicast data in IPSec tunnel.

It could provide a low cast safe interconnection plan based on Internet for enterprises and companies with a large number of branches in many cities. Its backbone network adopts Hub and Spoke. Dynamic tunneling is allowed to be established between different branches for data transmission. When two branches are in the same city but the center is in another, data could be directly transmitted between the two branches to reduce delay and consumption of central router, being

110 much more economical; adding of branches will not change the configuration of the center and other branches while maintenance work is reduced exponentially; branch node could use dynamic IP address for saving IP address resource in public network; dynamic tunnel is featured by a large network scale. Those advantages make it extremely suitable for the safe interconnection of enterprises and companies with a large number of branches in many cities. 3.8.3.2 DMVPN Solution DMVPN is achieved through the combination of multi-point GRE (mGRE) and Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP). In DMVPN solution, IPSec is used to achieve encryption, GRE or multi-point GRE (mGRE) is used to create a tunnel, and NHRP is used to resolve the problem of dynamic address. DMVPN only requires that the center nodes must apply for a static public IP address. Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP) is defined in RFC 2332 by the IETF. It is used to obtain the interconnected network layer address and NBMA subnetwork address for reaching the “next hop” of destination nodes for the source node (host or router) on the non-broadcast multiple access (NBMA) network.  Automatic Starting of IPSec Encryption be encrypted. It means that when there is a data package matching the defined ACL, the IPSec encryption tunnel will be created. When GRE Over IPSec is used, GRE tunnel configuration has included the address of GRE tunnel’s opposite end. This address is also on the address of the opposite terminal of IPSec tunnel. Therefore, it is unnecessary to separately define matching ACL for IPSec. Through binding GRE tunneling with IPSec, once the GRE tunnel is established, IPSec encryption will be immediately triggered.  Dynamic Tunnel Establishment of Spoke-to-Hub In DMVPN network, there is no branch GRE or IPSec configuration information on the center router, while it is required to configure GRE tunnel according to the external network’s public IP address and NHRP protocol of the center router. When the branch router is energized and started up, the IP address can be obtained through DHCP at ISP, and an IPSec encrypted GRE tunnel can be automatically established and the IP address of external port can be registered at the center router through NHRP. There are reasons in three aspects: 1) Since the IP address of branch router’s external network port is automatically obtained, the IP address may be different every time. Therefore, the center router can not be configured based on the address information. 2) The center router is not required to configure GRE or IPSec information for all branches, which will greatly simplify the configuration of the center router. All relevant information can be automatically obtained through NHRP. 3) In case of DMVPN network expansion, it is not required to change the configuration of the center router and other branch routers. The new branch routers will be automatically registered

111 in the center router. Through the dynamic routing protocol, all other branch routers can learn this new routing and the new branch routers can also learn the routing information to reach all other routers.  Dynamic Tunnel Establishment of Spoke−to−Spoke In DMVPN network, the Spoke−to−Hub tunnel, once established, will persi st, while it is not required to directly configure a continuous tunnel between branches. When a branch wants to transmit data package to another branch, it will use NHRP to dynamically acquire the IP address of destination branch. In this process, the center router acts as the NHRP server to respond to the request of NHRP and provide the public network address of destination branch to the source branch. Hence, an IPSec tunnel can be dynamically established between two branches through the mGRE port for data transmission. The tunnel will be automatically removed after a predefined cycle.  Support for Dynamic Routing Protocols DMVPN is based on GRE tunnel, while GRE tunnel supports the transmission of multicast or broadcast IP packet in tunnel. Therefore, DMVPN network supports running dynamic routing protocols on IPSec and mGRE tunnels. It should be pointed out that NHRP must be configured as dynamic multicast mapping, so that when the branch router registers unicast mapped address on the NHRP server (center router), NHRP will also establish a multicast / broadcast mapping for the branch router. We have mentioned above that IPSec tunnel does not support multicast / broadcast packet encapsulation, while GRE tunnel encapsulates multicast / broadcast packet in GRE packet, and GRE packet is a unicast packet and can be encrypted by IPSec. In encryption of GRE packet with IPSec, IPSec can be configured to the transmission mode, because GRE has encapsulated the original packet as the unicast IP packet and it is unnecessary to let IPSec re-encapsulate a header. The transmission mode IPSec requires that the source and destination addresses of encrypted data packet must match with the addresses of the IPSec tunnel’s both terminals. It means that the addresses of the GRE tunnel’s both terminals must be the same with those of the IPSec tunnel’s both terminals. Since the routers on both terminals of GRE tunnel are the same routers on both terminals of IPSec tunnel, so this can be guaranteed. Through the combination of GRE tunnel and IPSec encryption, we can utilize the dynamic routing protocol to update the routing tables on the routers at both ends of the encrypted tunnel. The subnet learned from the tunnel peer will contain the IP address of tunnel’s opposite terminal as the next hop address of the opposite terminal’s subnet. So that, in case of change in the network at any terminal of tunnel, the other end will dynamically learn this change and maintain the connectivity of network without changing the configuration of router. 3.8.3.3 We have mentioned above that in the DMVPN network, the Spoke−to−Hub tunnel, once established, will persist, while there is no persistent tunnel between branches. So that, after the initialization of router, the center router will announce the reachable routings of other branch subnets to branch routers through the persistent tunnel. Therefore, the "next hop" address reaching Realization of Dynamic Routing Protocol in DMVPN Network

112 other branch subnet in the branch router's routing table will be the address of center router’s tunnel port instead of the address of other branch router’s tunnel port. Thus, the data transmission between branches will still pass through the center router. To solve this problem, it is required to set on the center router. When a branch subnet’s reachable routing is announced on the port of mGRE tunnel, the "next hop" address is the address of this branch router’s tunnel port instead of the address of the center router. In RIP or EIGRP equidistant vector routing protocol, the function of split horizon is usually achieved, to prevent sending the routing information back to its source port and avoid routing loop on the adjacent routers. If RIP or EIGRP protocol runs on the DMVPN network, it is required to turn off the split horizon function. Otherwise, the branch routers will not be able to learn the routing to the other branch subnets. For RIP, this is enough, because when RIP sends the routing to the routing information source port, its "next hop" address will not be changed and remains to be the original address. When EIGRP sends the routing to the routing information source port, its "next hop" address will change to the address of the port. Therefore, it is necessary to turn off this feature (EIGRP is private protocol of CISCO. The IOS command to turn off this feature is no ip next-hop-self eigrp). OSPF is a link status type routing protocol and itself does not have the problem of split horizon. However, in configuring OSPF network type, it is required to be configured as a broadcast rather than the point-to-multipoint type. Otherwise, the above problems will be caused. In addition, it should also be noted that it is required to configure the center router (Hub) of DMVPN as the designated router (DR) of OSPF, which can be achieved by specifying a higher OSPF priority for the center router (Hub). 3.8.3.4 DMVPN Configuration Example Topology

119 In OpenVpn, if a user needs to access to a remote virtual address (address family matching virtual network card), then OS will send the data packet (TUN mode) or data frame (TAP mode) to the visual network card through routing mechanism. Upon the reception, service program will receive and process those data and send them out through outer net by SOCKET, owing to which, the remote service program will receive those data and carry out processing, then send them to the virtual network card, then application software receive and accomplish a complete unidirectional transmission, vice versa.

Refer to the following figure for topological graph. In the figure, an OpenVPN channel is established on equipment A and OpenVPN server. The virtual IPs at both sides of the channel are respectively 192.168.5.2 and 192.168.5.1. a. If OpenVPN of equipment A is in routing mode, the routing to 192.168.8.0/24 will be to OpenVPN channel and OpenVPN server. Accordingly, a static routing will be added to OpenVPN server so that the packet routing to 192.168.9.0/24 will be to OpenVPN channel. In this way, PC A and PC B is intercommunicated via OpenVPN and two-way visit can be realized. b. if OpenVPN is in NAT mode via equipment A, OpenVPN server is in no need to increase the static routing about 192.168.9.0/24. Now, PC A can have access into PC B, but PC B cannot directly have access into PC A. It is applied to initial uploading. Configuration procedures of router are as follows: Step 1: Configure relevant parameters of OpenVPN, as shown in the following figure.

122 Step 2: Configure different certificates in accordance with different certification demand when the channel is successfully established. The type of certification and certificate are as follows: None ------ in no need of certificate Pre-shared Key ----- in no need of certificate User/Password ----- only CA certificate like ca.crt X.509 Cert (multi-client), X.509 Cert ----- in need of CA certificate, equipment public key certificate, equipment private key certificate like ca.crt, my.crt, my.key. 1. The suffix of CA and public key certificate is .crt and the suffix of private key certificate is .key. 2. The time of equipment must be accurate in using certificate. Step 3: Configure OpenVPN server after router is configured. Add a static routing to 192.168.2.0/24, route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev tun0 (suppose the net port of OpenVPN server is tun0). 3.8.6 Certificate Management From navigation panel, select VPN>>Certificate Management, then enter “Certificate Management” page,as shown below.

123 3.9 Industrial Router’s industrial interface has two types: serial port and IO interface. Serial port has RS232 and RS485 modes and IO interface has digital input and relay output modes. RS232 adopts full-duplex communication with one transmission line, one receiving line and one ground line. RS232 is generally used for communication within 20m. RS485 adopts half-duplex communication to achieve long-distance transmission of serial communication data. RS485 is used for communication from tens of meters to kilometers. Digital input of IO interface can convert electrical signals into binary digital control signals. The digital is a logical variable or switch variable with only two values 0 and 1. Low voltage corresponds to the "0" and high voltage to "1" IO’s relay output functions as an "auto switch" to automatically adjust protect and switch circuit.

146 Service DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol dynamically assigns IP address, subnet mask, gateway and other information of the host in the network DHCP Server Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server is a device running DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and is mainly used to assign IP address to the clients of DHCP DNS Domain Name Service Domain Name Service resolves domain name into IP address. DNS information is distributed hierarchically between DNS servers throughout the Internet. When we visit a website, DNS server views the domain name sending the request and searches for the corresponding IP address. If the DNS server can not find the IP address, it will submit the request to the superior DNS server and continue to search for the IP address. For example, the IP address corresponding to the domain name www.yahoo.com is 216.115.108.243 Firewall Firewall Firewall technology protects your computer or local area network from malicious attacks or access from the external network Abbreviation Full English Name Meaning MAC address Media Access Control address Media Access Control address is the permanent physical address assigned by the manufacturer to the device. It is composed of 6 pairs of hexadecimal digits. For example: 00-0F-E2-80-65-25. Each network device has a global unique MAC address NAT Network Address Translation Network Address Translation can convert multiple computers within the LAN through NAT to share one or more public network IP addresses and access to the Internet.
