7 Configuration and Operation on the Telephone

FRITZ!Box Keypad Sequences
Many of the FRITZ!Box functions and features can be con­figured and used over a telephone connected to a FRITZ!Box extension. Only tone-dialing (dual-tone multi­frequency = DTMF) telephones can be used in configura­tion and operation. Pulse dialing telephones are not suit­able.
The telephone network features can be used only if they are supported by your telephone network carrier and en­abled on your telephone line.
Acknowledgment
Ton e
Entries input on the telephone are confirmed with ac­knowledgement tones (see also “Audible Signals” on page 33):
Entries made correctly are confirmed with a positive
acknowledgement tone (a single tone of one second in length).
If the entry was not successful, because of an incor-
rect key sequence, for instance, you hear a negative acknowledgment tone (an intermittent tone broken into intervals of about 0.25 seconds).

Call Waiting
Call waiting can be switched on or off for each extension. Some older terminal devices connected to extensions may misinterpret the call waiting signal. This is especially true of fax machines and modems. If communication errors oc­cur, you should disable call waiting for fax and modem ex­tensions.
See section “Waiting Calls” on page 42 for information about how to accept a call while another connection is ac­tive.
When call waiting is enabled, modem and fax connec­tions may be interrupted.

Disabling Automatic Outside Dialing
Disabling Automatic Outside Dialing
The FRITZ!Box offers the possibility of disabling automatic outside dialing. This means that you will hear an internal dialing tone when you lift the handset at the correspon­ding extension. This makes sense at any extension which is used to make many internal calls, for instance, between the extensions of the FRITZ!Box. When automatic outside dialing is disabled, for an external call the 0 must be di­aled before the telephone number.

Define the Outgoing Number and the Type of Connection
For outgoing connections you can specify the kind of con­nection to be used for the next dialing procedure. For this entry you can use settings already made, or circumvent the settings currently configured. In this case the dialing rules are suspended for the given dialing procedure.
By entering precisely which Internet telephony account should be used it is possible to have the dialing proce­dure conducted via a certain Internet telephone number, even though this number was never previously configured for the extension used.

Help for Errors
This chapter provides assistance if you are not able to open the user in­terface of your FRITZ!Box, if you are having problems with the Internet connection, or if you want to change the IP settings on your computer.

8.1 Errors Opening the User Interface

If an error message is returned when you open the user in­terface, this can have various causes. Check the possible causes and attempt to resolve the error.
Restarting the FRITZ!Box
The user interface cannot be opened or does not react.
Possible Cause
Inconsistencies within the FRITZ!Box.
Remedy
1. Restart the FRITZ!Box.
Remove the power cable from the socket.
2. Wait about five seconds before reconnecting to the
power supply.
3. Try again to open the FRITZ!Box user interface by en-

Disabling Dial-Up Connections
Remedy
Set the network adapter to DHCP so that the IP address can be obtained via the DHCP server of the FRITZ!Box. Ad­just the settings to those described in the section “Ob­taining an IP Address Automatically” from page 57.
Disabling Dial-Up Connections
The user interface is not opened; a window for a dial-up connection appears instead.
Possible Cause
The browser must use the network connection between the computer and FRITZ!Box when the user interface is opened. For this the automatic establishment of a Dial-Up Networking connection must be disabled.
Remedy
You can disable the automatic attempt to establish a Dial­Up Networking connection. The following example ex­plains how to check the settings of Internet Explorer 6:
1. Select the “Connections” settings page under “Tools
/ Internet Options...”.
2. In the “Dial-up and Virtual Private Network settings”
section, enable the option “Never dial a connection”.

8.2 Obtaining an IP Address Automatically

The FRITZ!Box is equipped with its own DHCP server. This means that the connected computers obtain their IP ad­dresses from the FRITZ!Box. The connected computers must be configured such that they can receive their IP ad­dresses automatically. The steps for checking and adjust­ing this option differ among the operating systems. See the relevant section for your operating system.
If FRITZ!Box is operated in a network, no other DHCP serv­er may be activated in this network.

More about Networks

2 More about Networks

The FRITZ!Box is delivered with preconfigured network settings. Accord­ing to these settings, all network devices connected with the FRITZ!Box are located in a single network.
The network settings can be changed and adapted to your conditions and needs. But you should do so only if you are well versed in network­ing technology.
The Glossary explains concepts and terminology having to do with
IP networks.
The section “Network Overview” from page 69 introduces the net-
work overview of the FRITZ!Box.
The sections “IP Address” from page 72, “DHCP Server” from
page 73 and “Subnetwork” from page 74 explain when it may make sense to change the preconfigured network settings, what the effects of these changes are, and how to make the changes.

2.1 Network Overview

The FRITZ!Box user interface shows an overview with all of the devices and users connected with the FRITZ!Box.
The “Devices and Users” network overview is found in the following two menus: “Start Menu / Network” or “Settings / Advanced Settings / System / Network”.

UPnP Settings

2.3 UPnP Settings

The Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) service included in your FRITZ!Box provides status information about the FRITZ!Box to all connected computers. Programs with UPnP support on these computers can receive this infor­mation and use them to display the status of the FRITZ!Box (e.g., DSL synchronization, connection status, data transmission). UPnP service thus allows you to moni­tor your FRITZ!Box from a connected computer.

2.4 IP Address

Upon delivery the FRITZ!Box is assigned the following IP address:
192.168.178.1
If you would like to change the IP address, please read through the following sections. Also note the additional information in the section “Reserved IP Addresses” on page 72.
When Does It Make Sense to Change the IP Address?
You should change the IP address of the FRITZ!Box if the following applies to your network:
You have an existing local IP network, one subnet wi-
th several computers.
Fixed IP addresses are registered in the network set-
tings of the computer, and you do not want to or are not permitted to change these addresses.
You want to connect the FRITZ!Box to the subnet in
order to make the FRITZ!Box features available to all of the computers in the subnet.
Reserved IP Addresses
The entire IP network 192.168.180.0 in the FRITZ!Box is reserved for internal purposes.
IP addresses from this network may not be assigned to the FRITZ!Box.
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 72
Page 73
DHCP Server

2.5 DHCP Server

The FRITZ!Box is equipped with its own DHCP server. The DHCP server is enabled by default in the factory settings. The following range of IP addresses is reserved for the DHCP server in the factory settings:
192.168.178.20 - 192.168.178.200
This IP address can be changed as needed.
Every time the operating system on a computer connected with FRITZ!Box is started, the DHCP server assigns it an IP address from the IP address range of the DHCP server.
Only one DHCP server may be active within any network.
Assigning the IP addresses via the DHCP server ensures that all of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box are located in a single subnet.
The computers can receive their IP addresses from the DHCP server only if the setting “Obtain an IP address au­tomatically” is enabled in the their IP settings. For more information, see the section “Obtaining an IP Address Au­tomatically” from page 57.
Fixed IP Addresses when the DHCP Server Is Enabled
If you would like to configure fixed IP addresses on indi­vidual computers connected with the FRITZ!Box despite the enabled DHCP server, please note the following:
The IP addresses must be from the IP network of the
FRITZ!Box.
The IP addresses may not come from the address
range of the DHCP server.
Each IP address can be assigned only once.
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 73
Page 74
Disabling the DHCP Server
Disabling the DHCP Server
You can disable the DHCP server.
To make sure that all computers remain in the same IP net­work as the FRITZ!Box, you must enter the IP addresses manually in the computers’ network settings. First disable the option “Obtain an IP address automatically” and then enter the IP address manually in the appropriate field.
In the case of the preset IP address of the FRITZ!Box, the following IP addresses are available for assignment to the computers:
192.168.178.2 - 192.168.178.253
Each IP address can be assigned only once.

2.6 Subnetwork

By default the option “All computers are located in the same IP network” is enabled in the FRITZ!Box.
If the factory settings were not changed, this setting has the following effect:
The DHCP server of the FRITZ!Box assigns all of the com­puters connected with the FRITZ!Box an IP address from the address range of the DHCP server.
This means that all of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box are located in the same IP network.
Disabling “All computers are located in the same IP network”
If you switch off the setting “All computers are located in the same IP network”, the interfaces of the FRITZ!Box will receive their own IP addresses.
Factory Settings Upon delivery the interfaces of the FRITZ!Box are config-
ured as follows:
Interface IP Address Subnet Mask DHCP Server
LAN 192.168.178.1 255.255.255.0 enabled

More about Internet Telephony

3 More about Internet Telephony

Voice over IP (VoIP)
Internet telephony has already been in use for years, but today it allows even private customers the convenience fa­miliar from conventional telephony, usually at significant­ly lower prices.
Internet telephony has also made it considerably more convenient to use applications like conference calls and answering machines in networks. Further advantages include global availability at a single telephone number, and the development of new standards for security and voice quality.
Data Transfer All kinds of data transmission in the Internet use the Inter-
net Protocol (IP). IP is packet-oriented. This means that the data are broken down into data packets for transmis­sion and IP takes care of the transport of the individual da­ta packets through the Internet. Language is also trans­mitted in the Internet in this manner.
In opposition to this, fixed-line telephony transmits data in a line-oriented manner. In this case data are transmit­ted in a coherent data stream.

3.1 Telephony Scenarios

If you have configured both a fixed-line number and an In­ternet telephone number in FRITZ!Box, you can make calls in all directions:
from the fixed-line network into the fixed-line net-
work
from the Internet into the fixed-line network
from the Internet into the Internet
and receive calls from all directions as well.

ADSL abbreviation for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line
Designates a fast kind of file transfer that works with stan­dard copper cables and transports signals in both direc­tions at different speeds (upstream at 640 Kbit/s and downstream at up to 9 Mbit/s).
ADSL2 abbreviation for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line 2
ADSL 2 (G.992.3) is a further development of the ADSL norm G.992.1/G.992.2).
ADSL2 offers range much greater than did the first ADSL generation, and is significantly more robust than ADSL, as it can simply disable single carrier frequencies when they produce interference. This feature allows ADSL2 to pre­vent synchronization losses.
With a throughput rate of up to 12Mbit/s downstream, ADSL2 offers considerably greater bandwidth than ADSL.
ADSL2 is completely downward compatible, meaning that terminal equipment compliant with ADSL can also be op­erated on ADSL2 lines, although they cannot exploit the advantages of ADSL2.
ADSL2+ abbreviation for extended bandwidth Asymmetric Digital
Subscriber Line 2
ADSL2+ (G.992.5) is a further development of the ADSL norm (G.992.1/ G.992.2).
ADSL2+ offers a doubled frequency range used for down­stream transmission, and thus double the maximum bandwidth achievable for downstream to 24 Mbit/s.
ADSL2+ is completely downward compatible, meaning that terminal equipment compliant with ADSL and ADSL2 can also be operated on ADSL2+ lines, although they can­not exploit the advantages of ADSL2+.

ADSL-Controller An ADSL-Controller is an electronic hardware module that
allows a computer to access an ADSL line. ADSL-Control­lers are stationary equipment, included on internal ADSL cards (for the PCI bus) or in external ADSL modems (with USB or Ethernet ports).
Alias Alias means different, else and also known as. An alias is
often a short, catchy substitute for a long, complicated string of characters, for example, the actual name of the user J.Smith@my-internetprovider.com in place of the string 030123456@my-internetprovider.com. Here the name J.Smith functions as an alias for 030123456.
Context Menu The context menu is a menu that is normally not visible.
The context menu opens only when you click a button, a graphic or a word with the right mouse button. Depending on where you clicked, the context menu contains only the most common menu commands for the given object.
If you are using an Apple computer, press the “Ctrl” key while clicking instead.

DHCP abbreviation for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
DHCP is a protocol for the dynamic negotiation of the op­erating parameters for the TCP/IP protocol (TCP is a trans­port protocol based on the Internet protocol).
The computers of a local IP network (DHCP clients) access the DHCP server as part of their operating systems’ start procedure.
The central administration of the TCP/IP operation param­eters makes it possible to avoid address conflicts caused by IP addresses accidentally assigned more than once.
DHCP Server The DHCP server assigns each client an IP address that is
has not yet been assigned at the present time. The DHCP server also informs the client of the IP addresses of the

DNS server to be used and of the default gateway. In as­signing the IP addresses the DHCP server selects from a prescribed pool of IP addresses.
DNS abbreviation for Domain Name System
Domain Name Service takes care of determining the IP ad­dress for a given domain name, Domain Name Service is running on every computer. It accepts the domain name entered by a user and inquires about the corresponding IP address at a DNS server known to the service. If a DNS server cannot answer the inquiry itself, it can inquire about the IP address (DNS resolution) at other DNS serv­ers.
If the Domain Name Service receives negative information from the DNS server (domain name not known), it can send inquiries to other DNS servers it knows or return a corresponding error message to the user. If it receives the desired IP address instead, the application can use the IP address to retrieve the destination desired by the user.
This hierarchical system of DNS servers is known as the Domain Name System. The addresses of the DNS servers at which the Domain Name Service is to inquire by default generally are handed over to the computer by the Internet Service Provider automatically whenever a connection to the Internet is established. In local networks addresses can also be assigned via DHCP. Otherwise they must be entered manually in the TCP/IP settings of the PC by the user or the system administrator.
DSL Modem A DSL modem connects a computer to the Internet via the
DSL line. In contrast to the analog modem, a connection via the DSL modem does not mean that the telephone line is busy.
DSL Router A combination of a DSL modem and a router is called a
DSL router.

Dynamic DNS abbreviation for Dynamic Domain Name System
Dynamic DNS is a service which allows a computer always to be reached under the same domain name despite con­stantly changing IP addresses. This means that even pri­vate users have an economical way of placing their own Internet offers on their computer at home.
It works by transmitting the current IP address to a special DDNS server each time the IP address changes. Except for the few seconds between the cancellation of the old IP ad­dress and the notification of the new IP address, the com­puter can always be reached at the selected domain name.
Dynamic IP
Address
A dynamic IP address is an IP address valid only for the duration of one Internet or network session.
Every computer participating in the Internet must have a uniquely assigned public IP address. Since only a limited number of such IP addresses is available, they must be used sparingly. That is why most of the Internet partici­pants who dial in to the Internet receive a dynamic IP ad­dress. They are called dynamic because every participant receives a new public address that has not been assigned yet each time she or he dials in to the Internet.
By contrast, dynamic addresses are usually used in local IP networks because they are easy to handle, and because using them avoids incorrect IP address entries or uninten­tional double assignments. The DHCP service is responsi­ble for assigning unique dynamic IP addresses.
FAQ abbreviation for Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs are collections with answers to frequently asked questions on a certain subject area.
Firewall A firewall protects a computer or local network against at-
tacks from the Internet.
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 84
Page 85
Glossary
Most firewalls work with packet filters, which merely check the IP addresses and port numbers of incoming and outgoing data packets and filter the packets according to prescribed rules.
Some firewalls also integrate additional concepts like IP masquerading and NAT to decouple data traffic by distin­guishing strictly between the internal and external net­work.
Especially effective firewalls go even further, analyzing and evaluating the contents of the packets and filtering them according to prescribed rules. Such techniques may also include a Stateful Packet Inspection Firewall, for in­stance.
Firmware The firmware is saved in programmable components with-
in a device. Through the possibility of updating the firm­ware by computer at any time, manufacturers enjoy great flexibility in reacting to the demands of the operational environment, integrating new functions requested by cus­tomers, and eliminating errors discovered after produc­tion.
Fixed IP Address Fixed IP addresses are IP addresses which are permanent-
ly assigned to a computer or another device like a network printer.
Assigning fixed IP addresses makes sense in cases where a local network has a sufficiently large pool of IP address­es available, or when a computer is always supposed to be accessible at a certain address (such as a web server or e-mail server).
FTP abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol
The File Transfer Protocol allows files to be exchanged be­tween two computers operating in the Internet. Data ex­change takes place via an FTP server and what is known as an FTP client. The more convenient FTP clients are availa­ble as stand-alone software or are components of some ISDN data transfer software; simple FTP clients are now in­cluded in many web browsers.

Glossary
Gateway Gateway is a general term designating an interface be-
tween two computer networks. Such a network interface can be realized using a router or a bridge, for instance.
If a computer wants to transfer data packets to a computer in another network, it must first transmit the packet to the gateway. To do this, the computer must know the address of the gateway.
If all packets that cannot be delivered in a local network always are to be transmitted to their given recipients via the same gateway, for this purpose the address of the gateway must be saved as the default gateway in the net­work settings of the computer.
Such a default gateway for the computer is negotiated au­tomatically by the operating system or the dialing soft­ware whenever an ISDN-Controller or DSL-Controller estab­lishes a connection to the Internet. If a router is used for the shared Internet access in a local network, the IP ad­dress of the router must be entered as the default gateway in the TCP/IP settings of each computer that wishes to use the Internet connection. If the TCP/IP setting is configured by means of a DHCP server, there is no need to enter the gateway address manually.
IP abbreviation for Internet Protocol
The IP Internet Protocol is the most important basic proto­col for the control of data exchange in local networks and in the Internet. The Internet protocol works without a con­nection; in other words, data packets are transmitted from the sender to the recipient without previous consultation. The addresses of the recipient and the sender in the data packets are given as IP addresses.
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 86

Glossary
IP Address abbreviation for Internet Protocol address
In IP-based networks, for instance in the Internet and local networks, all connected devices are addressed via their IP addresses. So that data packets are sure to be delivered to the right address, each IP address may be assigned on­ly once within the Internet or a local IP network.
The IP address consists of four three-digit groups of num­bers (for instance, 192.168.178.247). Each group of num­bers can assume values between 000 and 255.
Every IP address contains two components: the network address and the host address. These two components can be read out of an IP address only if the subnet mask is al­so specified.
IP addresses can be public or private, and also fixed or as­signed dynamically. See the corresponding entries in the glossary for more information.
IP Addressing Addressing is one of the main functions of the Internet
Protocol (IP). Internet addresses can be written in deci­mal, octal or hexadecimal notation. The FRITZ!Box uses “dotted-decimal” notation: The four bytes of an address are represented by decimal numbers separated by dots. The full set of IP addresses, called the address space, is grouped into address classes designated as A, B, C, D and E. Only the first three of these five address classes are ac­tually used. These classes can be described as follows:
Classes Properties Network Address,
Class A address Few networks, many hubs 0-127
Class B address Intermediate distribution
of networks and hubs
Class C address Many networks, few hubs 192-223

Glossary
Properties of IP Address Classes
Every IP address consists of two parts: the network ad­dress and the host address. The sizes of the network ad­dress and the host address are variable, and determined by the first four bits (of the first byte) of the IP address.
IP
By means of IP masquerading a computer or LAN can be
Masquerading
protected from unauthorized connection request from the Internet. Masquerading works by converting the IP ad­dresses used in a network to one public IP address. From the outside it appears that all requests are sent from a sin­gle computer.
IP Network A network in which data exchange takes place on the ba-
sis of the Internet Protocol is called an IP network.

Port So that a single network connection on a computer can be
The outside dialing prefix is the digit dialed at an exten­sion line to obtain an outside line. Generally this is “0”.
used by multiple applications to exchange data with re­mote sites at the same time, a computer administers what are known as ports for the IP-based protocols TCP and UDP. Ports substantiate the point of access for the data packets delivered via the IP Internet protocol. While the IP address determines the destination computer quite gen­erally, the port addresses the communication interface provided by an application for a certain communication procedure.
The Internet protocol allots 16 bits for the specification of the port number. Thus a total of 65,535 different port numbers can be specified. Ports up to port number 1,024 are reserved for special system applications and typical Internet applications. These include, for instance, the port numbers 21 for FTP (File Transfer Protocol), 25 for SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), 53 for DNS (Domain Name Service) and 80 for HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol).
Ports are primarily of interest to users for their role in pro­tecting an Internet connection from external attacks. Most firewalls offer the possibility of preventing data traffic on
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 88
Page 89
Glossary
certain ports. This means that certain port numbers can be blocked to prevent data from being delivered to system services. This is also a way of preventing any Trojans (ma­licious aplications opening backdoors on a computer) that may have infected your computer from receiving data on ports it created as means of accessing your computer for potentially damaging activities. A firewall blocks most atypical port numbers not required for normal operation of an application and offers specialized users the opportuni­ty to forward specified ports.
Port Forwarding With port forwarding it is possible to specify ports that will
allow all incoming or outgoing data packets to pass through a router or firewall.
If a computer from the local network offers server services, for instance, the settings of a router using NAT or IP mas­querading must enable or forward the port used by the server service for access to incoming data packets and thus keep it open permanently. The private IP address of the given PC must be saved as the destination address for all of the packets arriving at the port.
Typical server applications which require port forwarding are FTP and Web servers. To allow access to a computer via remote management software like Symantec’s pcAny­where or Microsoft’s Remote Desktop, or even use of a file-sharing program like eDonkey, the required ports must be released for port forwarding. Port forwarding settings for the most important application cases are quite simple as long as the settings of the router or the firewall already contain rules with a corresponding preconfiguration.
Private
IP Address
Private IP addresses are used for computers and other network devices within local IP networks.
Since many local IP networks are not connected to the In­ternet except via single computers or routers (gateway), certain address ranges are excluded from the publicly available IP addresses so that they are available for as­signment in local IP networks. An IP address may only be assigned once within the local network. A private IP ad­dress may exist in any number of other local networks.
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 89
Page 90
Glossary
Public
IP Address
A public IP address is an IP address valid in the Internet. Every computer or router participating in the Internet must have a uniquely assigned public IP address. This address is usually negotiated dynamically with the Internet Service Provider when a connection to the Internet is dialed. The Internet Service Provider assigns the negotiated IP ad­dress to the computer or router for the duration of an Inter­net session.
Subnetwork A local IP network can consist of one subnetwork or be di-
vided into multiple subnetworks. The division into subnet­works is performed when the local IP network is config­ured. The subnetworks of a local IP network are also IP networks.
Subnet Mask The subnet mask indicates which part of an IP address is
the network address and which the address of the com­puter. The network address defines what is called the sub­net.
Example 1
IP address: 192.168.178.247
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
The assignment of the first three groups of numerals in the sub­net mask indicates that the first three groups of numerals in the IP address define the network. The following addresses result:
Network address of the subnet: 192.168.178.0
Address of the computer in the subnet:
IP address pool in the subnet: 192.168.178.0 -
192.168.178.247
192.168.178.255
The IP addresses
192.168.178.0 and
192.168.178.255 are reser­ved. This means that the ad­dresses from 192.168.178.1 to 192.168.178.254 are available for assignment to the computers. Therefore a maxi­mum of 254 computers can be included in the subnetwork.

Example 2
IP address: 192.168.178.247
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
The assignment of the first two groups of numerals in the sub­net mask indicates that the first two groups of numerals in the IP address define the network. The following addresses result:
Network address of the subnet: 192.168.0.0
Address of the computer in the subnet:
IP address pool in the subnet: 192.168.0.0 -
192.168.178.247
192.168.255.255
That’s 65,536 IP addresses. The IP addresses 192.168.0.0 and 192.168.255.255 are re­served. This means that the addresses from 192.168.0.1 to
192.168.255.254 are availa­ble for assignment to the com­puters.
TCP/IP abbreviation for Transmission Control Protocol / Internet
Protocol
TCP/IP is the “language” of the Internet. TCP/IP is used to refer to a suite of protocols used for data communication over the Internet. TCP and IP are the network and transport protocols underlying most Internet services, including file transfer (FTP) and e-mail communication (SMTP). TCP/IP is available for practically all computer systems. TCP/IP thus offers the advantage of trouble-free communication be­tween otherwise incompatible networks and systems.
TR-069 T-069 is an HTTP-based protocol for communication be-
tween CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) and an Auto Configuration Server (ACS) belonging to the Internet Ser­vice Provider. The TR-069 protocol is also known under the alternative name CPE WAN Management Protocol (CWMP). It offers the possibility of setting up the terminal device
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 91
Page 92
Glossary
securely and automatically and thus, most importantly, fa­cilitates simple initial configuration of the ADSL terminal equipment by the end customer.
The TR-069 protocol can be used for automatic configura­tion only if it is actively supported by the given terminal device. For this an Auto Configuration Client (ACC) must be integrated in the device. The specifications for automatic configuration of the ADSL terminal device are stored on the Auto Configuration Server by the given Internet Service Provider. The process of automatic configuration via TR­069 is initiated by the ADSL terminal device. First the user enters a security key and then the settings are retrieved from the Auto Configuration Server and implemented in the ADSL terminal device without any further interaction with the user. During this process all of the communica­tion between the ADSL terminal device and the Auto Confi­guration Server takes place in encrypted form.
Traffic Shaping Traffic shaping is a technology for the optimization of ca-
pacity loads in a communication connection. Especially for asymmetrical DSL connections, using traffic shaping can prevent that a download is delayed or blocked by high upload traffic.
Data transfer in the Internet is generally based on the TCP/IP protocol, which waits for the remote site to confirm reception after sending one or more data packets. Addi­tional data packets are not sent until this confirmation of reception arrives. If no confirmation arrives over a longer period of time, the non-confirmed data packets are trans­mitted again. The dispatch of such a confirmation can be delayed, for instance, because the bandwidth for transfer (upload) is already being used by the data packets of other applications. But since the remote site does not sig­nal the reception of the expected confirmation packets un­til after they have arrived, this could cause noticeable de­lays in rendering a requested web site or a drop in the throughput rate of a download. In the worst-case scenario, the remote site will abort transmission after several appar­ently unsuccessful attempts to transfer of the data pack­ets. Typical causes for such a blockade situation include
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 92
Page 93
Glossary
sending an e-mail message or the use of a program for pri­vate data exchange (also known as file sharing or peer-to­peer software).
Through traffic shaping these delays are avoided by pro­viding the dispatch of confirmation packets with band­width suitable for the given download activities. All of the packets to be sent are also assigned a priority suitable for their packet types.
Update A more recent version of software or firmware is called an
update. Updates are often free of charge, resolve minor programming errors, and sometimes also offer new func­tions.
Upload This term designates the procedure of transmitting files
from one’s own computer to another computer in the Inter­net.
UPnP abbreviation for Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
UPnP is an extension of the Microsoft Plug & Play standard that allows devices to network globally and to exchange services – without a central server or computer.
UPnP allows devices from all kinds of manufacturers (ste­reo systems, routers, printers, house controls) to be con­trolled via an IP-based network, with or without central control through a gateway. It is based on a number of standardized network protocols and data formats. Ex­pressed simplistically, devices can communicate with each other using UPnP to exchange information.
Today the UPnP forum specifies the UPnP standard and certifies devices that are compliant with the standard.
VoIP abbreviation for Voice over IP, also known as Internet tele-
phony
Voice over IP makes telephone calls possible via the Inter­net. The technology has already been in use for years, but today it allows even private customers the convenience fa­miliar from conventional telephony, usually at significant­ly lower prices. VoIP has also made it considerably more
FRITZ!Box Fon 5113 93
Page 94
Glossary
convenient to use applications like conference calls and answering machines in networks. Added to this are global accessibility under a single telephone number and new VoIP features like the Buddy List known from chat rooms.
Internet telephony used to be possible only with a head­set connected to the computers of the callers and their conversation partners. Today voice connections via the In­ternet, even to fixed-line and mobile networks, can be conducted conveniently using VoIP telephone systems that allow already existing analog telephones to be used even when the computer is switched off. Various Internet Service Providers and telephony carriers provide SIP­fixed-line gateways for this purpose. Such a gateway is used to produce voice connections between the Internet and conventional telephone networks. In principle VoIP conversations are possible via every DSL access point, but for convenient use with existing terminal equipment, and for conversations with the fixed-line and mobile networks, it is important that the DSL provider supports what is known as the SIP standard. SIP is the current standard de­fined for VoIP by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force).

VPN abbreviation for Virtual Private Network
VPN serves to integrates devices from a neighboring net­work into your own network, without the networks having to be compatible with each other.
A VPN is generally an independent company network dis­tributed over several locations, which uses the infrastruc­ture of a public communications network to link its partial networks or to link individual computers to the rest of the network. A VPN uses tunneling technologies and typically builds on the infrastructure of the Internet.
Using a Virtual Private Network it is possible to use all net­work applications of the company network even from dis­tant locations. This means it is possible to use the advan­tages of the network even over large geographical distanc­es.
VPN facilitates optimum information flow without delay throughout the entire company, even to offices in other lo­cations. E-mail servers, file sharing and other central ap­plications of the company network can thus be made available via VPN even to distant branch offices, subsid­iaries and home offices. With VPN, field representatives of a company can also be granted secure access to the com­pany network.
