SAFETY INFORMATION

CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS

THE FE-100F3 FAST ETHERNET INTERFACE MODULE, FPIM-05 AND

FPIM-07 FDDI PORT INTERFACE MODULES, AND APIM-29 ATM

PORT INTERFACE MODULE USE CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS.

READ THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INFORMATION BEFORE

INSTALLING OR OPERATING THESE MODULES.

The Class 1 laser transceivers use an optical feedback loop to maintain Class 1 operation limits. This control loop eliminates the need for maintenance checks or adjustments. The output is factory set, and does not allow any user adjustment. Class 1 Laser transceivers comply with the following safety standards:

• 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (FDA).

• IEC Publication 825 (International Electrotechnical Commission).

• CENELEC EN 60825 (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization). When operating within their performance limitations, laser transceiver output meets the Class 1

accessible emission limit of all three standards. Class 1 levels of laser radiation are not considered hazardous.

SAFETY INFORMATION

CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS

LASER RADIATION AND CONNECTORS

When the connector is in place, all laser radiation remains within the ﬁber. The maximum amount of radiant power exiting the ﬁber (under normal conditions) is -12.6 dBm or 55 x 10-6 watts.

Removing the optical connector from the transceiver allows laser radiation to emit directly from the optical port. The maximum radiance from the optical port (under worst case conditions) is

0.8 W cm-2 or 8 x 103 W m2 sr-1.

Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optical port, power must be removed from the network adapter.

Proxy ARP — This checkbox lets you disable the Proxy ARP function.

Figure 32, below shows an example of Proxy ARP (Address Resolution Protocol). In this

example, hosts A, and C need to communicate, and the only route is through host B as shown. The IP Addresses that deﬁne the link between hosts A and B use the same subnet number as the Ethernet LAN,(i.e., 192.168.54.0) through which hosts B and C communicate. Host C assumes that the IP Address 192.168.53.4 has an Ethernet connection on the LAN.

192.168.54.3 Host C

When the IP Protocol layer of host C receives a packet addressed to 192.168.53.4, host C puts an ARP broadcast on the LAN asking the host of that address to respond with its MAC (Machine Address and Control Layer) address. Because host A is not on the LAN, host C receives no response, and believes it cannot communicate with that IP Address.

Proxy ARP solv es this problem by putting entries into the ARP mapping table on host B that maps the IP Address 192.168.53.4 to the MAC address of host B on the LAN.

Now when host C broadcasts a request for the MAC address of IP Address 192.168.53.4, host B will respond with its MAC address. Host C will send packets for 192.168.53.4 to host B’s MAC address, and host B will forward these packets to Host A.

Firewall Conﬁguration Window

The Firewall conﬁguration window shown in Figure 33 below, displays after clicking on the

Firew

all... button in the ﬁrst Bridging and Routing conﬁguration window. The Firewall

conﬁguration window is used to conﬁgure an Access Control List (ACL). The Access Control List lets you restrict trafﬁc to, from, or between speciﬁc IP hosts, subnets, or networks. You can conﬁgure access control restrictions based on the following:

• The source, destination, or a combination of the source and destination address of a packet.

• The upper layer protocol type of a packet such as TCP, UDP, ICMP, or all TCP/IP protocols.

• The TCP or UDP port number of a packet.

• Interface Number.

When an IP Access Control List (ACL) is enabled on a router port, each packet forwarded out this port is ﬁrst checked against the ACL. If the address(es) of a packet match the address(es) in the ﬁrst ﬁlter in the list, the packet is permitted or denied as speciﬁed by that ﬁlter.

If there is no match, the packet is checked against the second ﬁlter, and so on, until a match is found, or until the packet has been checked against all of the ﬁlters in the list. If the packet does not match any of the ﬁlters, then the packet is permitted to pass through the port.

The following deﬁnitions explain the ﬁelds in the QuickSET Firewall conﬁguration window:

ACL (Access Control List) — The Access Control List number is a number assigned to a

speciﬁc list of sequence numbers.

Sequence — A number assigned to individual access ﬁlters in an access list. As only one IP

Access Control List can be applied to each port, a single list often includes several access control ﬁlters. Each ﬁlter permits or denies access to or from a certain host, subnet, or network. When an access control list contains multiple ﬁlters, the ﬁlters are referenced in order of their sequence numbers.

Source IP — The Source IP ﬁeld displays the IP address of the source device accorded the

permissions set in the permissions ﬁeld. To set permissions for a source device, place the cursor in the Source IP ﬁeld and type the IP address of the source for which you wish to set permissions.

Source Mask — Displays the mask for the Source IP address speciﬁed in the Source IP ﬁeld. To

set the mask for the speciﬁed source IP address, place the cursor in the Source Mask ﬁeld and type the mask.

The default Mask for both the source and destination addresses is 0.0.0.0, which masks the entire address, causing all addresses to match the ﬁlter. In other words, the default access control list allows all trafﬁc to pass. Entering a mask of 255.255.255.255 causes only packets matching the exact address you have entered to match the ﬁlter. For a Class C address, entering a mask of

255.255.255.0 causes packets with the same class C subnet as the IP address to match, thereby causing the access control ﬁlter to apply to all hosts on this particular subnet.

Dest IP — The Dest IP ﬁeld displays the IP address of the destination device accorded the

permissions set in the permissions ﬁeld. To set permissions for a certain destination device, place the cursor in the Dest IP ﬁeld and type the IP address of the destination for which you wish to set permissions.

Dest Mask — Displays the mask for the Destination IP address speciﬁed in the Dest IP ﬁeld. To

set the mask for the speciﬁed destination IP address, place the cursor in the Dest Mask ﬁeld and type the mask.

Protocol — Use this pull-down list to select the upper layer protocol that you want to apply to the

access control ﬁlter. Each access control ﬁlter can apply to trafﬁc for all protocols included in the TCP/IP suite, or just to trafﬁc for a single protocol.

Permission — Use this pull-down list to set the permissions for the speciﬁed control ﬁlter.

Options include permit, deny , permit bi-directional, or den y bi-directional. Choosing permit allows the speciﬁed packets to be forwarded, while choosing deny blocks the speciﬁed packets. Choosing permit bi-directional or deny bi-directional either permits or denies trafﬁc to and from a speciﬁed source or destination.

OSPF Settings — The OSPF Settings window shown in Figure 53, on the following page,

displays after clicking on the OSPF button in the Advanced Routing Conﬁguration window. OSPF OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is a Link-State Protocol. OSPF distributes routing information

between routers belonging to a single Autonomous System (AS). In an Autonomous System, routers exchange routing information through a common routing protocol.

An Autonomous System may contain one or more networks, but each network within the AS may or may not support subnetting. Every OSPF routing domain must have a “Backbone”. An OSPF backbone distributes routing information between areas in an OSPF routing domain. The backbone of an OSPF routing domain is an OSPF area possessing an area ID of 0.0.0.0.

Because OSPF Protocol only broadcasts link state updates when the topology has changed, it is considered “quiet” when compared to RIP Protocol, which has to periodically send a portion, or all of its routing table to its neighbors.

Convergence (the time it takes to recalculate routing tables) under the OSPF Protocol is instantaneous and not periodic because of the use of IP Multicast to send the link-state updates. Updates are only sent when routing changes occur instead of periodically, ensuring better use of available bandwidth.

QuickSET Configuration Guide 51

Configuration with QuickSET

OSPF employs “ﬂooding” to exchange link-states with other routers. Any change in routing information is ﬂooded to all routers in the network. The use of “areas” puts a boundary on the explosion of link-state updates. All routers within an area will have the exact link-state database.

The OSPF Settings window shown in Figure 53 on the pre vious page, displays a database of areas. Areas are represented by an address (area ID) similar to an IP address in format; four groups of three decimal numbers, separated by periods. There is no mask associated with area IDs.

The Import AS External (True or False) ﬁeld, when set to True allows the importation of Autonomous System external link-state advertisements into the Area ID in the Area ID ﬁeld. To add an area to the database, click the A

Port — A MIB II Interface. Status — Enabled, or Disabled. When enabled, allows broadcast of link-state updates. Area ID — A 32-bit number designating what area the link-state advertisement is to be received.

An area ID of 0.0.0.0. is reserved for the backbone network.

Router Priority — Router Priority is used (with the Router ID) to select a Backup Designated

Router, and a Designated Router. The range of Router Priority is from 0 to 255, where 255 is the highest. The highest router ID is the highest router IP Address. Class C addresses are the highest.

The router with the highest priority is elected the Designated Router (DR). The router with the second highest priority will be elected Backup Designated Router (BDR).

Transmit Delay — The estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link-state update

packet over this interface. Link-state advertisements contained in the Link State Update packet will have their age incremented by this amount before transmission. This value must take into account transmission and propagation delays.

Poll Interval — If a neighboring router has become inactive (Hello packets hav e not been seen for

[Router Dead] seconds, it may still be necessary to send Hello packets to the dead neighbor . These Hello packets will be sent at the reduced rate [Poll Interval], which should be much larger than Hello interval. Typical Poll Interval for an X.25 network is 120 seconds.

Retransmit Interval — The number of seconds between the retransmission of Link-State

Advertisements.

Hello Interval — The length of time in seconds between the Hello packets that the router sends

on this interface, advertised in Hello packets sent out of this interface.

Router Dead Interval — The number of seconds before the router’s neighbors will declare it
