2: ManageLinx Overview
ManageLinx solves the access-through-firewall problem and utilizes existing network infrastructure to create a virtual device network (VDN). The VDN provides direct access to only authorized equipment, behind firewalls, from anywhere via the net.
Our VDN technology enables you to create dedicated TCP/IP connections between any two devices, using easily deployed hardware appliances. There is no client software to install. No changes are required to network software or applications at either end of the connection. ManageLinx is a secure and totally transparent remote access solution.
The VDN hardware consists of a publicly accessible Device Services Manager (DSM) and individual Device Services Controller (DSC) appliances in multiple locations. Together, these two components enable you to set up and manage individual Virtual IP (VIP) addresses and routes.

Network
DSC
Host Controller
DSC
Device Controller
The Device Services Controller (DSC) appliances reside on remote and local networks and mediate communications onto the LANs. In device controller mode, a DSC provides simple access as well as end-point encryption for all traffic. To provide secure end-to­end communications, a DSC sits on the LAN at each service center location. Operating in host controller mode, a DSC provides a secure, scalable entry point to the ManageLinx VDN system. Once enabled, the host or device controllers provide encrypted communications through the firewall.
The Device Services Manager serves as a central management station and proxy connection point for participating DSCs. The publicly addressable Device Services Manager offers a complete Web 2.0-based management system for all VDN system

2: ManageLinx Overview
configuration and control. You can configure individual devices, set up automated device discovery on remote networks, perform automated monitoring, and enable secure access to any device visible to a participating Device Services Controller.
For an outside device to contact devices on private networks, there has to be a DSC on the local segment of both devices and a DSM available to the DSCs. Alternatively, the DSC can contact the DSM when an authorized local device requests communication with another device using one of the DSC’s configured VIP (proxy) addresses.
The DSM acts as a publicly accessible call center server. It grants access for isolated device communication through a secure encrypted tunnel by means of the DSC on the local segment of the devices behind a firewall. It is also responsible for remote management, maintenance, configuration and registration of detected DSCs and device servers on the network.
The DSC’s primary responsibility is to provide a secure and encrypted com m unication path for isolated public internet devices to communicate with devices local to the DSC through firewalls on a local private network. The DSC periodically polls the configured parent DSM to retrieve registry information such as discovered device data, maintenance reports, and configuration information.
The DSM completely manages the DSCs. You create and maintain configuration profiles on the DSM. You transfer configuration data from the DSM to the DSC with a USB flash drive (provided). Then you use the web-based WebManager interface for access, configuration, and management of the DSCs and VPN.
Configuration Sequence
The overall configuration sequence is as follows:
1. Install and configure the DSM. See Chapter
2. Via the Web Manager interface, connect to the DSM and define and configure all
elements of your ManageLinx network. See page
3. Install and configure the DSCs. Use your PC and the Lantronix flash drive to copy a
bootstrap file from the DSM to each DSC. See Chapter
4. Configure specific communication routes. See Chapter

9: Route Configuration
Configurable items are elements on the map such as DSMs, DSCs, device servers, and devices. You can configure element settings before physically connecting them to a network.
DSM Ports
The DSM is expecting incoming connections from the DSCs to be made using p ort 22. Since some firewall configurations prevent the usage of port 22 for outbound connections, you can configure the DSM and DSC to use a different port
When you direct the host DSC to connect to a target DSC, the DSM will attempt to connect to one of the ports in the list and will keep trying until it succeeds. The maximum number of ports in the port list is 5.
9: Route Configuration
Configure Ports
Click Configuration > Configure Ports. The Configure Ports screen appears.
Here you can add, update, delete, or prioritize port numbers.
You can define a single port number (e.g. 80).
Port numbers must in the range of 1 through 65535.
The default port number is 22 and is always included in the list by default. You
may remove port 22 if you add another port number.
ManageLinx User Guide 33
9: Route Configuration
Modifying the DSM port does not require bootstrapping the DSCs. This data is
propagated to the DSCs while they’re still connected to the DSM using the old DSM port. Once all of the DSCs are connected to the DSM using the new DSM port, the DSM will no longer accept DSC connections on the old DSM port.
To add a port, enter its number in the field provided and click Add. To prioritize a port, select the port number and use the arrows to move it up or
down the list.
To edit a port, select the port number, and click Edit. To delete a port, select the port number, and click Delete.

11: VIP Routes
This chapter describes how to configure DSCs and subordinate devices to communicate across different networks—even through firewalls—by using VIP routes.
Console
11: VIP Routes
DSM
Public
Network
DSC-B
DSC-A
ManageLinx supports tunneling of TCP and UDP traffic. There is a slight difference between the configuration and features of TCP tunneling vs.UDP tunneling.
Virtual IP Routes
A VIP Route is a mapping between a VIP on one DSC and a configured device (See
27, Adding Other Elements, for instructions regarding device configuration).
page By creating the VIP route between VIP1 and Dev1, any device on subnet A can
communicate with Dev1 in subnet B, using the secure tunnel between the two networks created by the DSM and the two DSCs.
A VIP is a virtual IP address assigned by you to a DSC. You can configure any number of VIPs to a DSC, determined by your licensing
agreement with Lantronix.
DEV-1
TCP Tunneling
To create a TCP session between the console on subnet A and Dev1 on subnet B, the console has to initiate the session. Then DSC A attempts to establish a TCP session with Dev1. When the session is established, traffic can flow in both directions.
ManageLinx User Guide 45
11: VIP Routes
The flow of data between the console and the device is bidirectional due to the nature of TCP. However, the initiation of a session is possible only in one direction. For example, if both Host1 and Dev1are Linux servers, an SSH client can log into the SSH server on Dev1, but the SSH client on Dev1 cannot log into the SSH server on Host1.
Create a TCP VIP Route:
1. Click Configuration > Configure Element, select a DSC icon, and select the VIP
mapping tab.
2. Notice the Virtual IP License count in the upper left corner. See the chapter on
licensing to activate more licenses (page
29).
3. Click Add Row if you want to create another VIP.
4. Enter the Virtual IP Address and Netmask in dot-quad format, e.g. 255.255.255.0.
5. Proceed to the pull-down menu and select a target.
6. Click Save.
ManageLinx User Guide 46
UDP Tunneling
The UDP tunneling feature of ManageLinx allows any host on subnet A to send UDP packets. Once a VIP route has been configured, it will carry both TCP and UDP traffic. However, the nature of UDP requires additional details—described below—to allow the receiving device to send UDP datagrams in the opposite direction.
The underlying assumption for UDP tunneling is that a responding device uses the source address of the packet it received when it wants to send a reply to the original sender.
UDP VIP Route Types
ManageLinx supports the following types of UDP VIP routes.
Uni-directional—Allows a host on subnet A to send UDP datagrams to Dev1, but
does not expect Dev1 to send any response.
Bi-directional—Allows Host1 on subnet A to send a UDP packet to Dev1, while
attempting to assure that there are sufficient resources to support a UDP packet
going back from Dev1 to Host1. This is done by creating a VIP route from a VIP on
DSC2 to Host1.
11: VIP Routes
There are 2 types of Bi-directional routing:
Automatic Reverse Mapping—selects an unused VIP in the auto VIP pool to use to
send data from device B back to Host 1. This automatic route will remain open for a
few minutes even if there is no activity.
Manual Reverse Mapping—lets you manually configure Virtual IP routes in both
directions: a Virtual IP route from Host 1 to Device B and a VIP route from DSC B to
Host1. A static route thus established remains in effect until changed.

UDP Uni-Directional Routing

4. Click Save.
Bi-directional Manual Reverse Mapping
Remember: Manually configured routings, like this, remain set until manually changed. For reverse mapping, bi-directional scenarios, there has to be two Virtual IP routes:
One from the VIP on the originating device’s parent DSC (DSC-A) to the target
device (Printer).
One from the VIP on the target device’s parent DSC (DSC-B) to the originating
device (Console). This figure shows that VIP 33.22.1.1 is configured on DSC A to send data to device
Printer. And DSC-B has configured VIP 22.22.22.22 to send data to the originating device (Console).
