CHAPTER 1 Introduction

Many existing meters, data loggers, RTU's, PLC's, point-of-sale, and other remote devices only have physical interfaces designed to access the telephone network. They do not have serial or Ethernet ports. They currently use analog cellular or standard phone lines to connect in circuit­switched mode for data transfer.
Analog cellular phone service is being discontinued. The combination of the Host RJ-11 IP Gate­way, RJ-11 IP Gateway, and the AirLink Raven-E enables remote connectivity between host appli­cations and these remote devices over cellular packet data networks. The RJ-11 IP Gateway provides the bridge between a device requiring an RJ-11 interface and the Raven-E, with its Ether net interface. The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway can provide Ethernet-based Internet connectivity to a Legacy Host system with only RJ-11 ports.

Host RJ-11 IP Gateway Features

One RJ-11 phone port
The phone port is a phone line designed to function just like standard wall-jack analog phone line. It is designed primarily to connect dial-up devices, with internal modems, to the RJ-11 IP Gateway, which then routes data from the devices over the network. The RJ- 1 1 IP Gat eway and Host RJ-11 IP Gateway mimics the phone company, answering incoming calls and routing them to an internal modem attached to the phone port, or generating calls from an internal modem to an attached device.
Caution: The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway's RJ-11 phone port should never be con-
nected into the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). This device is designed to emulate the PSTN for other devices. The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway may sustain damage not covered by warranty if it is connected to the Public Switched Telephone Net work.
One RJ-45 auto-sensing 10base-T Ethernet port
The Ethernet port is designed to be connected to either an AirLink modem with an Ethernet port such as the Raven-E or Raven X or any Ethernet-based network. With the modem connected to the cellular network, the communication from the device connected to the RJ-11 port can be routed to the Internet and your remote host.
One power connector
The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway uses a AC power adapter with an optional DC adapter available.
Status LEDs
The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway status LEDs give clear and concise information about the operation of the ports.

CHAPTER 2 Installation

Configuring the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to work with your network or Raven-E and your RJ-11 equipped device is easy. This chapter covers a basic configuration.
Caution: The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway’s RJ-11 port (labeled “Phone”) should not be
connected into the Public Switched T elephone Network. This port is the emulation for a Phone that you would have been using with your device. The RJ-11 IP Gate way will sustain damage not covered by warranty if it is connected to the Public Switched Telephone Network.

Before You Start

-
Caution: If the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway and Raven-E (as applicable) are going to be
on a hub which is connected to a local network, you will need to be sure the addresses you select are not used by any other device on the network. Consult with your network administrator if you are unsure.

Software Required

Wireless Ace - Graphical interface for configuring your Raven-E. Wireless Ace is located on
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway CD or you can download Wireless Ace from the AirLink website: http:/
/www.airlink.com/support/modems/utilities/. A default installation of this utility is assumed
later in these directions. If you will not be connecting the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to a Raven-E, you will not need Wire-
less Ace.
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway Port Utility - Utility to establish an initial IP address for your Host
RJ-11 IP Gateway. The port utility is located on the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway CD or you can download it from the AirLink website: ht tp://www.airlink.com/support/modems/rj-11-host.asp. A default installation of this utility is assumed later in these directions.
If you will be connecting the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to a Raven-E, you will not need the port utility. If you can use the default IP address of the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway for the initial config uration, you, also, will not need the port utility.

Hardware Required

Ethernet Cable - A cross-over or straight through Ethernet cable.
-
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 5
Page 7
Installation
If you will be connecting the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to a Raven-E, you will need a cross-over Ethernet cable to configure your Raven-E unless your computer’s Ethernet port is auto-sensing.
The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway has an auto-sensing Ethernet port, you can use either a cross-over cable or a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to the Raven-E or your computer.
Power supplies and a power source - Y ou will need a power supply and power source for both
the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway and the Raven-E (as applicable).
PC or Laptop - To configure both the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway and the modem (as applicable),
you will need a computer with Internet Access, other than the cellular account, and an available Ethernet port.

Cellular Account Required

Cellular Account - If you will be connecting the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to a Raven-E, you
need to already have an active account with a cellular provider and to have activated your modem with that provider. The AirLink Raven-E is certified to work with a variety of cellular providers.
If you need to activate your modem, you can use the Setup Wizard for your cellular provider which you can obtain from the AirLink website: http://www.airlink.com/support/.

Important Information about Ports

Port Blocking - Many cellular providers and other ISPs block ports below 1024 which are the
default ports for many server protocols (such as HTTP, telnet, and SSH). If your provider blocks these ports, you will need to configure a port you can access.

Configuring your Raven-E for the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway

These steps are just a basic configuration to get you started and allow the Raven-E to connect with the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway . Refer to the modem user guide for more configuration options for spe cific environments.
Omit this section if you are not connecting your Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to a Raven-E.

Commands
The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway can be configured to handle a variety of devices which need to connect to an RJ-11 port.
If you’re using a Raven-E with the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway, for configuration options for your Raven-E, refer to the modems’s user guide. All user guides are available on the AirLink website: http://www.airlink.com/support.

Web-based Interface

Note: Screen shots in this guide are using Microsoft Internet Explorer, but you can
use any web browser to configure the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway.
The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway employs a web-based user interface. To access the web interface, you will need to know the IP Address given to your Raven-E by the cellular carrier (or the modem domain name if you have configured IP Manager settings for the modem). Type the IP address (or modem domain name) into the Address bar of your web browser followed by “:9080” (see the example below).
Since many cellular carriers block the standard web browser ports (80 and 8080), the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway uses 9080 by default as a port for the web-based inter face.
FIGURE 1. Web Browser: Enter the Location
The web interface for the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway, by default, has no security. If you made changes to the security configuration ( name and password before the web-based interface will open.

Configuration Settings and Commands
Ethernet Address: MAC Address of the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway.
IP Address: The current IP Address of the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway and how the IP address was
assigned (in the example, a Raven-E in Public Mode used DHCP to give the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway the IP addressed assigned by the cellular network).
IP Netmask: The current subnetmask of the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway and how the device
obtained it.

Serial Settings

The Serial Settings page allows you to specify the baud rate, protocol, character size, parity, stop bits, and flow control behavior for the RJ-11 port (Phone).
Note: For most configurations, the default settings (shown in the screen shots) are
best. Change these parameters only if you know the device you will be connecting to the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway requires special settings.
FIGURE 4. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Serial Settings
Enabling flow control enables it on both input and output.
The inactivity time-out shuts down the service on the port if there is no input or output in the
specified time-out period.

Configuration Settings and Commands
With Modem Signal Loopbacks, the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway eliminates the use of specialized
cables required to change signal types and directions by performin g th e loopback of signal types to other signal types internally.
NativeCOM, (or any RFC-2217 Telnet client with COM-PORT-OP TION support) overrides the
baud rate, size, parity, stop bits and flow control parameters.

Port Services

By default, the RJ-11 port is configured to accept incoming TCP connections from TCP/telnet cli­ents with outgoing service based on phone numbers dialed by the attached device (Modem Ser­vice). You may configure the ports to initiate outgoing raw TCP or telnet connections to remote servers. In addition, the modem emulation feature may be enabled to allow a serial port to mimic a modem interface.
When using the modem service on the port, the phone number will be translated to a host/port
pair then a TCP connection will be established to the remote host.
When using outgoing connections on the port, the settings configured on the Serial Settings
page will be applied to the port, and a TCP connection will be established to the remote host.
Once connected, data received on the port is sent to the remote server over the network connec-
tion and data received on the network connection is sent out the port.
FIGURE 5. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Port Services
No Outgoing Service: Disables outgoing port services on the specified port. Incoming connec-

Modem Service: Enables modem emulation on both the incoming and outgoing network con-
nections. The target peer (specified in the Phone Number Translation table and configured in the Protocol Settings page) determines the type of outgoing connection that will be made.
Outgoing Network Connection: Enables an outgoing connection to the specified host.
Outgoing Telnet Connection: Enables an outgoing telnet connection to the specified host.
Modem Service Options: When Modem Service is selected, you may also configure the
Source TCP Port. In most cases, the value used for the source port is arbitrary and you can leave this field set to 0 for “any”. However, if your server or firewall has specific requirements you may specify an explicit source port number in the Source TCP Port field. If this port is not available when the TCP service starts up, an error will occur and the TCP service will reset and try again.

Phone Number Translation

This table can be used to translate phone numbers into IP addresses or Hostnames. If the attached device dials one of the specified telephone numbers, the corresponding IP address and port are used to make the TCP connection. Note that all non-numeric characters except the “,” (comma) in the phone number are ignored.
When modem emulation is enabled, the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway can detect the phone number from ATD commands. Although the IP address of the remote host can be embedded directly into the ATD command, certain devices can't always be easily configured to do this.
FIGURE 6. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Phone Number Translation
The Default Translation entry is used if the dialed phone number is not found in the list. (The dial backup number is not used in the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway.) The phone number table has a number of features to ease initial configuration. When an attached device dials a number that is not in the table, the device server creates a dummy entry in the table. This entry will consist of just the phone number. Until you fill in the remainder of the entry (IP Address/Hostn ame an d Port) and save it, this entry will not be used.
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 23
Page 25
Configuration Settings and Commands
Once you have created and saved an entry in the table, a link to the associated entry on the Protocol Settings page appears on the right. If the protocol is not yet defined, this link, “Define protocol”, will create a new entry on the Protocol Settings page, otherwise the link will be “Edit protocol”.
The translation table screen allows you to add up to 5 new entries at a time. A total of 64 entries may be configured including the default entry.
In the example above, if the attached device dials 18005551212, the port will be connected to the host at 192.168.13.100 on TCP port 5004. This host is not yet defined, so it will use the default TCP protocol. If the attached device dials any other number, the port will be connected to default.eairlink.com:5003, whose protocol is defined. And the termin al has actually dialed 555­1212, generating an automatic, but not yet saved, entry.

Network Translation

The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway is capable of accepting incoming TCP connections and redirecting them to remote TCP hosts. This functionality is called network translation and behaves much like a TCP “pipe” between two systems. The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway also uses Network Translation to allow connections to the web-base interface on a port other than the http protocol defined port of 80 which is frequently blocked by cellular carriers.
FIGURE 7. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Network Translation
It is also possible to modify the network protocol traveling through the TCP pipe by using the Pro­tocol Settings page to define the remote host's protocol requirements. The most common use for
this functionality is to add SSL encryption to an incoming TCP connection prior to sending it along to the remote host.
The Network Translation table is used to define network mappings for TCP pi pe s. You must f irst specify the incoming TCP port to which your device or application will connect. Then, you must specify the outgoing hostname and destination TCP port for the TCP pipe.
You can also specify the source TCP port for the outgoing TCP connection. Usually , this should be set to 0 to allow automatic selection of the source port. However, if you have a firewall that
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 24
Page 26
Configuration Settings and Commands
imposes limits on source TCP ports then you may need to set this to something specific. Note that if you specify something other than 0, you will be limited to only 1 TCP pipe at-a-time for any given destination port.

Protocol Settings

For each host (peer) you will make an outgoing connection to, you need to specify the protocol options used for that host. For each host, select the Host from the “Edit settings for a different peer” selection box. Select “Add a new peer definition” link to add a new host.
FIGURE 8. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Protocol Settings
The hosts are identified by their IP address or Hostname and TCP port. You may also specify wild cards. Specific host names and/or port numbers take precedence over the wild cards. An asterisk for the IP address/hostname (for instance “*:443”) means any other host when connecting on port
443. An asterisk for the port number (for instance “host.peer.com:*”) refers to any other port on that host. And a double asterisk (“*:*”) refers to all other hosts.

Network Configuration

The Network Configuration group configures settings for the RJ-45 Ethernet port.

Network Settings

The Network Settings page allows you to set the IP address, the IP netmask, and the TCP keep­alive settings.
Every IP address contains two pieces of information: the network number and the host number. A network number is assigned to each local area network and is shared by all the network devices on that network. Each network device, or “host”, is assigned a unique host number. The IP netmask defines which portion of an IP address contains the network number, and which portion contains the host number. The default netmask depends on the “class” of the IP address that you are using.
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 25
Page 27
Configuration Settings and Commands
In one type of configuration, the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway has been designed to work in conjunction with an AirLink Raven-E. The IP address for the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway and the IP address for the Raven-E need to be on the same network. If you need to set a specific IP address for the Raven-E and the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway , you will need to use Private Mode for the Raven-E. Setting Private Mode is covered in the Raven-E User Guide.
FIGURE 9. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Network Interface Settings
TCP keep-alive is a standard feature of TCP/IP that can be configured to automatically monitor the state of TCP connections. If one end of an idle TCP connection is severed (like by a network or power failure), it is possible for the other end to remain open indefinitely. If a network host fails while it has an open TCP connection to one of the device server’s serial ports, that serial port might remain unavailable until it is manually reset.
The optional TCP keep-alive feature sends special “keep-alive” packets to the remote TCP host in order to detect the situation where the remote host fails. If a failure is detected, the TCP connection is reset to allow other hosts to access the serial port.
To enable TCP keep-alives on serial-related network connections, enter the total time (in seconds) that you will allow TCP connections to remain idle before resetting them. The first keep-alive packet will be sent after the connection has been idle for half of this total time. After that, four more TCP keep-alive packets will be sent at regular intervals until a TCP response is received from the remote host. If no response is received before the total keep-alive time runs out, the TCP con
-
nection will be reset.
Caution: Enabling TCP keep-alives will increase the amount of network traffic on
your network. Unless you have a specific need for this feature, it is best to leave it disabled. If you do enable it, it is best to make the keep-alive time-out larger to reduce network traffic.

Configuration Settings and Commands

DNS Settings

The DNS Settings page allows you to specify a DNS name for your unit, specify the addresses of DNS servers to resolve names, and to pre-define some host names. The DNS name and servers can also be derived from a DHCP server.
FIGURE 10. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: DNS Settings
If the device server is configured to use DHCP, it will try to get DNS configuration information from the DHCP server. You may also manually set up static DNS entries on this page. Having DNS configured allows you to specify names in place of IP addresses in your configuration.
The DNS Domain Name is used as the default domain for any names you specify. For instance, if you specify the name “foo” in the ping command and the domain name “company.com” in the DNS Domain Name above, the ping command will do a DNS lookup on the name “foo.com pany.com”.
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 27

Page 29
Configuration Settings and Commands
The DNS Server IP Addresses are used to specify the addresses of one or more machines that can be used to resolve names to IP addresses.
The Static Hosts entries are used to define local host name to IP address mappings.

IP Routing

The IP Routing page lets you configure network routes for accessing remote networks.
FIGURE 11. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: IP Routing
If the device server is configured to use DHCP, it will try to get IP configuration information from the DHCP server. You may also manually set up static routes on this page.
Each IP route consists of a destination IP address, a netmask, and a gateway IP address. Depending on the netmask, the destination IP can specify one of two route types:
Host route: This is a route to a specific IP host. The netmask is always 255.255.255.255.
Network route: This is a route to an IP network. The netmask defines which portion of the des-
tination IP address contains the network number.
The current routing table is also displayed on this page for your reference.

Time Settings

The Time Settings page allows you to configure NTP or HTTP time-servers to get the system time from. If you are using SSL for peer verification, the device server must obtain a valid time from an external time-server to verify the peer.
Time is used in the system and other logs. Having the correct time can help to troubleshoot prob­lems or simply to track occurrences of particular events.
The current time is expressed in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 28
Page 30
Configuration Settings and Commands
FIGURE 12. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Time Settings
If the device server is configured to use DHCP, it will try to get NTP server information from the DHCP server. You may also manually set up the addresses on this page. The NTP service uses UDP port 123. If your device server is behind a firewall you may need to allow accesses to this port through the firewall. Adding or changing the NTP server will trigger the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to get the time again.
The HTTP server you specify need not be a designated time server – just a reliable server. The device server derives the system time from the HTTP header the server returns. Adding an HTTP server will not automatically trigger getting the time. You must reboot for this to take effect.

Security Settings

The security settings page includes settings for the System Password and Network Isolation.

FIGURE 13. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Security Sett ings
System Password: The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway’s administrative functions can be protected by
a system password. By default, no system password is configured. Once a password is set, your web browser will
prompt you for the system password whenever you try to access sensitive configuration pages. The browser will ask for a username and password. The username is always “admin”. The pass word will be what you configured.
Network Isolation Configuration: By default, all network services are enabled. However, for
security, any or all listening services may be disabled. Unselect any services that you wish to disable. These changes will not take effect until the next reboot.

Port Status

The current status of the RJ-11 port is displayed.
Host RJ-11 IP Gateway User Guide, version 33
Page 35
Configuration Settings and Commands
FIGURE 19. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Port Status
The DCD, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, and RI columns indicate the status of the modem signals for the RJ-11 (phone) port. If the modem signal is present (either asserted if it is an outgoing signal, or detected if it is an incoming signal) its name will appear in the corresponding column.
The State column indicates whether the port is open, closed, waiting for DCD, or experiencing any notable conditions (such as flow control). The Serial Parameters column indicates the current set tings for the port.
-
Note: The Serial Parameters column reflect the actual, real-time serial settings in
use by the port. The settings that are specified via the serial configuration pages are applied each time the port is opened. If the port is closed, the serial parameters reported by Port Status may not necessarily match the settings you configured until the port is re-opened. Furthermore, some clients (like NativeCOM) can override the configured settings.
The Input, Output, Parity Errors, Framing Errors, and Overrun Errors columns are tallies of activ­ity on the port. Under each port row is a field indicating the current TCP connection status on the port.
The display will update automatically every few seconds. You can stop the automatic update by selecting “Stop” from your browser. To restart the updating, select “Refresh” or “Reload” from your browser.

OS and Network Information

The OS Information shows the current state of system and application tasks as well as memory usage information.
The Network Information displays the status of network services and current connections. The TCP Sockets section shows current connections and TCP listeners. The UDP Listeners section shows UDP ports that are active.
The Network Interfaces displays the status of the currently active interfaces on the unit. This is similar to the “ipconfig” command on a Windows machine or the “ifconfig” command on a Unix machine. The current routing table is displayed as well.

Log Files and Settings

This page has two parts, Enabling Logging (Log settings) and Emailing Debug information.
By default, the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway stores informational and warning messages in the system log. You can also configure the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway to save trace data in this system log buffer.
FIGURE 20. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Log Settings
Tracing is generally used for troubleshooting problems. For port tracing, you must select both the port (phone) and the events that you want to trace.
You can also select additional log file generation, either a log file for the Ethereal Network Proto­col Analyzer or a WAV file for later analysis. Selecting “modem.wav” will record the latest modem negotiation from the RJ-11 port (from the time it dials until it completes negotiation).
For the additional log file generation, you will need to specify an email address for the recipient as well as your own email information.

Commands

The Host RJ-11 IP Gateway has some built in commands available.

Ping

You can use the Ping command to test a network connection.
FIGURE 22. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Ping
Enter the IP address to Ping or a Hostname and the Number of Pings then press the Ping button. The command will display the results as follows:

Not all hosts accept ICMP pings even if they are present on the network. However, the ping com­mand can serve two functions: 1) to test your general network settings – IP address, network mask, gateway and DNS server and 2) whether the device server can reach a given host. Simply resolving a name to an IP address effectively tests the first function.
Note: Some cellular carriers block ICMP pings on their cellular network.

Reset/Reboot

The Reset/Reboot page lets you reset the phone (RJ-11) port or the entire Host RJ-11 IP Gateway.
FIGURE 23. Host RJ-11 IP Gateway: Reset/Reboot
You can reset the phone port by selecting the port and pressing the Reset Port(s) button. This will kill whatever service was on the port and reset it back to the current configuration settings.
You may reboot the entire device by pressing the Reboot button. This is the equivalent of power cycling the unit.

APPENDIX B AT Commands

In addition to the web-based interface, you can use some typed AT Commands with the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway. To enter AT commands, you need to be connected to the device via telnet or by using the RJ-11 port as you would a standard analog modem.
All AT command strings, with the exception of the break sequence (“+++”) and the repeat com­mand (“A/”), must be terminated with the command line termination character, defined in S3 (default is CR). All characters before 'AT' are ignored. Unsupported commands are ignored and generate an “OK” result code. Multiple commands may be combined on a single line, however the AT command string is currently limited to 40 characters.

Modem Signal Behavior

The RJ-11 IP Gateway is not a modem (DCE), but is a terminal (DTE) device. It is designed to be connected to another DTE device via RJ-11 cable.The RI (Ring Indicator) signal does not have a corresponding outgoing signal so it is not supported.
Specifically, the DTR, DSR and DCD signals should be crossed with the device as follows:
Device RJ-11 IP Gateway
DCD,DSR DTR DTR DCD,DSR
To emulate a modem properly, the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway does the following:
Mode Modem DCD Settings Behavior
Command/Data Always on (&C0) DTR is asserted Command/Data Follow connection (&C1) DTR is asserted only when TCP/IP connection is
present and has been accepted via ATA or auto­answer. DTR is de-asserted when connection is lost
The device server monitors its DCD signal in order to detect changes in the device's DTR signal. The following behaviors occur on loss of DCD only.
Mode Modem DTR Settings Response to loss of DCD
Offline AT&D0 Ignore Offline AT&D1 Ignore Offline AT&D2 Ignore Online AT&D0 Ignore Online AT&D1 Drop to command mode, preserving connection Online AT&D2 Drop to command mode, terminating any connec-
tion

Phone Numbers

The “phone number” used in an outgoing connection for an “A TD” command may be a real phone number that is translated to an IP/port pair (see Phone Number Translation) or it consists of an IP address and optional port number. All leading non-numeric characters (such as the T or P dial mod ifiers) are ignored. A number of formats are accepted for the “IP” phone number.
Format Example Notes
Dotted decimal a.b.c.d or 192.168.1.1 Numbers are from 0 to 255 Comma decimal a,b,c,d or 192,168,1,1 For programs that don't allow dots in phone num-

If no port number is specified, the Destination TCP Port configured for the port is used.
The source port for the TCP connection follows the Source TCP Port configured for the port.

Port Settings

Most of the serial port settings (like baud rate) are controlled by the configured port settings on the device server. Modem emulation does not support changing these from AT commands.
