This guide provides information about how to configure and monitor Nokia
IPSO systems. This guide provides conceptual information about system
features and instructions on how to perform tasks using Nokia Network
Voyager, the Web-based interface for IPSO. All of the tasks that you perform
with Network Voyager you can also perform with the command-line interface
(CLI), allowing you to choose the interface you are most comfortable with.
For information specific to the CLI, see the CLI Reference Guide for Nokia IPSO.
This guide is intended for experienced network administrators who configure
and manage Nokia IP security platforms. It assumes a working knowledge of
networking and TCP/IP protocol principals and some experience with
UNIX-based systems.
This guide is organized into the following chapters:
Chapter 1, “About Network Voyager” describes the IPSO operating
system, Nokia Network Voyager, how to use Network Voyager, and how
to access documentation and help pages.
Chapter 2, “Configuring Interfaces” describes how to configure and
monitor interfaces.

1About Network Voyager
This chapter provides an overview of Network Voyager, the Web-based interface that you can
use to manage Nokia IPSO systems.
Nokia Network Voyager is a Web-based interface that you can use to manage IPSO systems
from any authorized location. Network Voyager comes packaged with the IPSO operating
system software and is accessed from a client using a browser.
You can also use the command-line interface (CLI) to perform all of the tasks that you can
perform when you use Network Voyager, which allows you to choose the interface you are most
comfortable with. For information about the CLI, see the CLI Reference Guide.
Software Overview
Nokia firewalls function with the help of several software components:
Operating System—Nokia IPSO is a UNIX-like operating system based on FreeBSD.
IPSO is customized to support Nokia’s enhanced routing capabilities and Check Point’s
FireWall-1 firewall functionality, and to "harden" network security. Unnecessary features
have been removed to minimize the need for UNIX system administration.
Ipsilon Routing Daemon (IPSRD)—IPSRD is Nokia’s routing software. The routing
policy implemented by IPSRD resides in a database. Network Voyager (see below)
configures and maintains the routing software and database.
Check Point FireWall-1—FireWall-1 consists of two major components: (1) the Firewall
module, which runs on the Nokia firewall and implements the security policy, and (2) the
Management module, which runs either on the Nokia firewall or on another workstation.
Use the Management Module to define and maintain the security policy.
Network V oyager—Network Voyager communicates with the routing software to configure
interfaces and routing protocols, to manage routing policy for the firewall, and to monitor
network traffic and protocol performance. Network Voyager also provides on line
documentation. Network Voyager itself runs on a remote machine as a client application of
the Nokia routing software and is HTML based.

Logging In to Network Voyager
When you log in to Network Voyager, the navigation tree you see depends on the role or roles
assigned to you. If the roles assigned to your user account do not include access to a feature, you
will not see a link to the feature in the tree. If they have read-only access to a feature, you will
see a link and be able to access the page, but all the controls will be disabled. For more
information on role-based administration, see “Role-Based Administration” on page 293.
Note
The system logs messages about both successful and unsuccessful attempts by users to
log in. These are stored in the /var/log/messages file.
To open Nokia Network Voyager
1. Open a Web browser on a computer with network connectivity to the IPSO system.
2. In the Location or Address text box, enter the IP address of the initial interface you
configured for the appliance.
You are prompted to enter a username and password. If this is the first login, enter the Admin
username and the password you entered when you performed the initial configuration.
For information about initial configuration, see the Getting S tarted Guide and Release Notes for IPSO.
Note
If the login screen does not appear, you might not have a physical network connection
between the host and your appliance, or you might have a network routing pro blem. Confirm
the information you entered during the initial configuration and check that all cables are
firmly connected.
Logging Off
When you are finished with your Network Voyager session, or if you need to log in to a new
session, log out by clicking Log Off at the top of the Network Voyager window.
Note
The Log Off link does not appear if you disabled session management. For information
about session management, see “Network Voyager Session Management” on page 311.
You can select to log in with or without an exclusive lock on configuration changes. For
more information, see “Obtaining a Configuration Lock” on page 25.
24Nokia Network Voyager for IPSO 4.0 Reference Guide
Obtaining a Configuration Lock
When you log in with exclusive configuration lock, no other user will be able to change the
system configuration. Only users with read/write access privileges are allowed to log in with
exclusive configuration lock.
If you acquire a configuration lock and then close your browser without logging out, the lock
remains in effect until the session time-out elapses or someone manually overrides the lock. For
instructions about how to override a configuration lock, see “To override a configuration lock.”
Users who have one or more read/write access privileges (as defined by the administrator under
role-based administration) acquire configuration locks unless they uncheck the Acquire Exclusive Configuration Lock check box when they log in. However, their read/write access is
limited to the features assigned by the administrator even though the configuration lock is in
effect for all features.
To log in with exclusive configuration lock
1. At the login, enter your user name.
2. Enter your password.
3. Check the Acquire Exclusive Configuration Lock check box. This is the default.
4. Click Log In.
Note
Enabling the exclusive configuration lock in Network Voyager prevents you or other users
from using the CLI to configure the system while your browser session is active.
To log in without exclusive configuration lock
1. At the login, enter your user name.
2. Enter your password.
3. Uncheck the Acquire Exclusive Configuration Lock check box.
4. Click Log In.
To override a configuration lock
Note
Only users with read/write access privileges are allowed to override an exclusive
configuration lock.
1. From the login page, click Log In with Advanced Options.
2. Verify that the Acquire Exclusive Configuration Lock check box is checked. This is the
default choice.
3. Check the Override Locks Acquired by Other Users check box.

2Configuring Interfaces
This chapter describes configuring and monitoring the various types of interfaces supported by
Nokia IP security platforms, aggregating Ethernet ports, configuring GRE and DVMRP tunnels,
using transparent mode to allow your IPSO appliance to behave like a Layer 2 device, and other
topics related to physical and logical interfaces.
Interface Overview
Nokia IPSO support the following interface types.
Ethernet/Fast Ethernet
Gigabit Ethernet
FDDI
ATM (RFC1483 PVCs only)
Serial (V.35 and X.21) running PPP, point-to-point Frame Relay, or Cisco HDLC
T1/E1 running PPP, Frame Relay, or Cisco HDLC
HSSI running PPP, point-to-point Frame Relay, or Cisco HDLC
VPN Tunneling
Token Ring
Unnumbered Interface
ISDN
Note
For information on what types of interfaces your appliance model supports, see your
hardware installation guide.
You can configure these interfaces with IP addresses. You also can assign additional IP
addresses to the loopback, FDDI, and Ethernet interfaces. All interface types support IP
multicast.

IP2250 Management Ports
The Ethernet management ports on IP2250 systems are designed to be used for the following
purposes:
Managing the appliance
Firewall synchronization traffic
IP cluster protocol traffic
Connection to a log server
Caution
The management ports are not suitable for forwarding production data traffic. Do not
use them for this purpose.
Configuring Network Devices
Network Voyager displays network devices as physical interfaces. A physical interface exists for
each physical port on a network interface card (NIC) installed in the appliance. Physical
interface names have the form:
<type>-s<slot>p<port>
where:
<type>
<slot>
<port>
is a prefix indicating the device type.
is the number of the slot the device occupies in the appliance.
is the port number of the NIC. The first port on a NIC is port one. For example, a
two-port Ethernet NIC in slot 2 is represented by two physical interfaces:
eth-s2p2
.
