This section gives you an overview of the Nokia software configured and
maintained by Nokia Voyager software.
Nokia firewalls function with the help of several software components:
!Operating System—Nokia firewalls run Nokia IPSO, 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. Voyager
(see below) configures and maintains the routing software and database.
Voyager Reference Guide9
Page 10
1 Overview
!Check Point Fir eW all-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.
!Voyager—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. Voyager also
provides online documentation. Voyager itself runs on a remote machine
as a client application of the Nokia routing software and is HTML based.
Interface Overview
This section describes how to configure network devices and assign IP
addresses to them using Voyager.
Interface Types
Nokia NAPs support the following interface types.
Note
Consult the appropriate hardware installation guide to find out what
interfaces your unit supports.
!Ethernet/Fast Ethernet
!FDDI
!ATM (RFC1483 PVCs only)
!Serial (V.35 and X.21) running PP P, 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
10Voyager Reference Guide
Page 11
!Token Ring
!Unnumbered Interface
!ISDN
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.
Configuring Network Devices
Voyager displays network devices as physical interfaces. A physical interface
exists for each physical port on a network interface card (NIC) installed in the
unit. Physical interface names have the form:
<type>-s<slot>p<port>
where:
<type>
is a prefix indicating the device type. The interface-name prefixes for
each type are as follows:

is the port number of the card. The first port on a NIC is port one. Fo r
example, a two-port Ethernet NIC in slot 2 is represented by two physical
interfaces:
eth-s2p1
and
eth-s2p2
The loopback interface also has a physical interface named
Use Voyager to set the attributes of the device. For example, line speed and
duplex mode are attributes of an Ethernet physical interface. Each
communications port has exactly one physical interface.
Configuring IP Addresses
Logical interfaces are created for a device's physical interface. You assign an
IP address to logical interfaces and then route to the IP address. Ethernet,
FDDI, and Token Ring devices have one logical interface.
For ATM devices, you create a new logical interface each time you configure
an RFC1483 PVC for the device. Serial, T1/E1, and HSSI devices have one
logical interface when they are running PPP or Cisco HDLC. Serial, T1/E1
and HSSI devices running point-to-point Frame Relay have a logical interface
for each PVC configured on the port. You also have the option of configuring
an unnumbered interface for point-to-point interfaces. Tunnels, however,
cannot be configured as unnumbered interfaces.
.
loop0
.
Logical interfaces, by default, are named after the physical interface for which
they are created. If you wish, you can override this default name with a more
descriptive or familiar name. You can also associate a comment with the
logical interface as a further way to define its relationship in the network.
Default logical interface names have the form:
<type>-s<slot>p<port>c<chan>
where
<type>, <slot>
and
<port>
have the same values as the corresponding
physical interface
<chan>
is the channel number of the logical interface. For logical interfaces
created automatically, the channel number is always zero. For logical
12Voyager Reference Guide
Page 13
interfaces created manually, the channel number is the identifier of the virtual
circuit (VC) for which the interface is created (for example, the ATM VCI or
the Frame Relay DLCI).

Once a logical interface exists for a device, you can assign an IP address to it.
For Ethernet, FDDI, and T oken Ring, you must specify the interface's local IP
address and the length (in bits) of the subnet mask for the subnet to which the
device connects.
If you are running multiple subnets on the same physical network, you can
configure additional addresses and subnet masks on the single logical
Voyager Reference Guide13
Page 14
1 Overview
interface connected to that network. You do not need to create additional
logical interfaces to run multiple subnets on a single physical network.
For point-to-point media, such as ATM, serial, or HSSI, you can either assign
IP addresses or configure an unnumbered interface. When assigning IP
addresses you must specify the IP address of the local interface and the IP
address of the remote system's point-to-point interface.
You can add only one local/destination IP address pair to a point-to-point
logical interface. To assign IP addresses to multiple VCs, you must create a
logical interface for each VC. IP subnets are not supported on point-to-point
interfaces.
Whenever an unnumbered interface generates a packet, it uses the address of
the interface that the user has specified as the source address of the IP packet.
Thus, for a router to have an unnumbered interface, it must have at least one
IP address assigned to it. The Nokia implementation of unnumbered
interfaces does not support virtual links.
Indicators and Interface Status
The configuration and status of removable-interface devices are displayed.
Interfaces can be changed while they are offline. The events, their effects, and
indications are:
!If you hot-insert a device (not power down the unit first), it appears in the
lists of interfaces immediately (after a page refresh) on the configuration
pages.
!If you hot-pull a device, and no configuration exists for it, it disappears
from the lists of interfaces immediately.
!If you hot-pull a device, and it had a configuration, its configuration
details continue to be displayed and can be changed even after a reboot.
!Hotswapped interfaces that are fully seated in a router’s chassis are
represented in the ifTable (MIB-II), ipsoCardTable (IP440-IPSO-SystemMIB), and the hrNetworkTable
(Host-Resources-MIB).
14Voyager Reference Guide
Page 15
!Unwanted configurations of absent devices can be deleted, which
removes the physical and logical interfaces from all interface lists.
!None: If no color indication is displayed, the physical interface is
disabled. To enable the interface, click on the physical interface name to
go to its configuration page.
!Blue: The device corresponding to this physical interface has been
removed from the system, but its configuration remains. To delete its
configuration, click on the physical interface name to go to its
configuration page.
!Red: The physical interface is enabled, but the device does not detect a
connection to the network.
!Green: The physical interface is ready for use. It is enabled and
connected to the network.
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
ARP allows a host to find the physical address of a target host on the same
physical network using only the target’s IP address. ARP is a low-level
protocol that hides the underlying network physical addressing and permits
assignment of an arbitrary IP address to every machine.ARP is considered
part of the physical network system and not as part of the internet protocols.
Using the Loopback Interface
By default, the loopback interface has 127.0.0.1 configured as its IP address.
Locally originated packets sent to this interface are sent back to the
originating process.
You might want to assign an address to the loopback interface that is the same
as the OSPF firewall ID, or is the termination point of a BGP session. This
allows firewall adjacencies to stay up even if the outbound interface is down.
Do not specify an IP subnet mask length when you add addresses to the
loopback interface.
Voyager Reference Guide15
Page 16
1 Overview
Configuring Tunnel Interfaces
Tunnel interfaces are used to encapsulate protocols inside IP packets. Use
tunneling to:
!send network protocols over IP networks that don’t support them
!encapsulate and encrypt private data to send over a public IP network.
Create a tunnel logical interface by specifying an encapsulation type. Use
Voyager to set the encapsulation type. Voyager supp orts two encapsulation
types, DVMRP and VPN.
The tunnel logical interface name has the form:
tun0c<chan>
where <chan> (channel number) is an instantiation identifier.
DVMRP tunnels encapsulate multicast packets using IP-in-IP encapsulation.
The encapsulated packets appear as unicast IP packets. This technique allows
two multicast routers to exchange multicast packets even when they are
separated by routers that cannot forward multicast packets. For each DVMRP
tunnel you create, you must provide the IP address of the interface that forms
the local endpoint of the tunnel and the IP address of the multicast router that
is at the remote end of the tunnel forming the remote endpoint of the tunnel.
Note
The remote multicast router must support IP-in-IP encapsulation and
must be configured with a tunnel interface to the local router.
When you have created the DVMRP tunnel interface, set all other DVMRP
multicast configuration parameters from the DVMRP configuration page.
16Voyager Reference Guide
Page 17
VPN (Virtual Private Networking) Tunnels
VPN tunnels encapsulate IP packets using Generic Routing Encapsulation
(GRE) without options. The encapsulated packets appear as unicast IP
packets. For each VPN tunnel you create, you must assign a local and remote
IP address. You also must provide the local and remote endpoint addresses of
the interface to which this tunnel is bound. VPN tunnels provide redundant
configuration between two sites for high availability. The remote router must
also support VPN encapsulation and must be configured with a tunnel
interface to the local router.
Routing Overview
This section discusses the following topics:
!Nokia Routing Subsystem
!Routing Protocols
Nokia Routing Subsystem
The Nokia routing subsystem, Ipsilon Routing Daemon (IPSRD), is an
essential part of your firewall. IPSRD’s role is to dynamically compute paths
or routes to remote networks. Routes are calculated by a routing protocol.
Besides providing routing protocols, IPSRD also allows routes to be
converted or redistributed between routing protocols. Finally, when there are
multiple protocols with a route to a given destination, IPSRD allows you to
specify a ranking of protocols. Based on this ranking, a single route is
installed in the forwarding table for each destination.
You can configure each of the supported routing protocols, route
redistribution, and other routing options via the Configuring Routing section
in Voyager.
Routing monitoring is available by following links from the individual
protocol pages or by clicking on the Monitor button in Voyager. Another
Voyager Reference Guide17
Page 18
1 Overview
monitoring tool is ICLID. This tool provides interactive, text-based
monitoring of the routing subsystem.
Routing Protocols
Routing protocols compute the best route to each destination. Routing
protocols also exchange information with adjacent firewalls. The best route is
determined by the cost or metric values.
Routing protocols can be broken up into two major categories: exterior
gateway protocols (EGPs) and interior gateway protocols (IGPs). Inte rior
gateway protocols exchange routing information inside an autonomous
system (AS). An AS is a routing domain, such as inside an organization, that
contacts its own routing. An EGP exchanges routing information between
ASes and provides for specialized policy-bound filtering and configuration.
Interior Routing Protocols
IPSRD supports three IGPs: RIP (Routing Information Protocol), IGRP
(Interior Gateway Routing Protocol), and OSPF (Open Shortest Path First).
Static routes and aggregate routes are also supported.
RIP
RIP is a commonly used IGP. There are two versions of RIP: RIP version 1,
and RIP version 2. Both versions are supported by IPSRD.
RIP uses a simple distance vector algorithm called Bellman Ford to calculate
routes. In RIP, each destination has a cost or metric value, which is based
solely on the number of hops between the calculating firewall and the given
destination.
The maximum metric value is 15 hops, which means that RIP is not suited to
networks within a diameter greater than 15 firewalls. The advantage of RIP
version 2 over RIP version 1 is that it supports non-classful routes. Classful
routes are old-style class A, B, C routes. You should use RIP version 2 instead
of RIP version 1 whenever possible.
18Voyager Reference Guide
Page 19
Nokia also supports RIPng, the version of RIP that supports IPv6 interfaces.
ProtocolDescribed in RFC
RIP version 1RFC1058
RIP version 2RFC1723
RIPng
IGRP
IGRP (Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) is a distance v ector protocol. IGRP
has a number of metrics for each destination. These metrics include link delay,
bandwidth, reliability, load, MTU, and hop count. A single composite metric
is formed by combining metrics with a particular weight.
Like RIP version 1, IGRP does not fully support non-classful routing.
OSPF
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is a modern link-state routing protocol. It
fully supports non-classful networks. OSPF has a single, 24-bit metric for
each destination. You can configure this metric to any desired value.
OSPF allows the AS to be broken up into areas. Areas allow you to increase
overall network stability and scalability. At area boundaries, routes can be
aggregated to reduce the number of routes each firewall in the AS must know
about. If there are multiple paths to a single destination with the same
computed metric, OSPF can install them into the forwarding table.
ProtocolDescribed in RFC
OSPFRFC2328
Voyager Reference Guide19
Page 20
1 Overview
DVMRP
DVMRP (Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol) is a multicast routing
protocol (RIP, OSPF, and IGRP are unicast routing protocols). Multicasting is
typically used for real-time audio and video when there is a single source of
data and multiple receivers. DVMRP uses a hop-based metric and, like RIP, a
distance-vector route calculation.
BGP
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is an exterior gateway protocol that is used
to exchange network reachability information between BGP-speaking
systems running in each AS. BGP is unlike interior gateway protocols (IGRP
or OSPF), which periodically flood an intra-domain network with all the
known routing table entries and build their own reliability on top of a
datagram service. Instead, BGP uses TCP as its underlying transport
mechanism.
BGP is also a path-vector routing protocol, which limits the distribution of a
firewall’ s reachability information to its peer or neighbor firewalls. BGP uses
path attributes to provide more information about each route. BGP maintains
an AS path, which includes the number of each AS that the route has
transited. Path attributes may also be used to distinguish between groups of
routes to determine administrative preferences. This allows greater flexibility
in determining route preference and achieves a variety of administrative ends.
BGP supports two basic types of sessions between neighbors: internal (IBGP)
and external (EBGP). Internal sessions run between firewalls in the same
autonomous systems, while external sessions run between firewalls in
different autonomous systems.
Aggregate Routes
Route aggregation allows you to take many small routes and aggregate them
into one large route. This reduces the number of routes advertised for a given
protocol. These aggregate routes are then redistributed into other protocols.
The aggregates are activated by contributing routes. For example, if a firewall
has many stub interface routes subnetted from a class C and is running RIPv2
20Voyager Reference Guide
Page 21
on another interface, the interface routes may be used to create an aggregate
route (of the class C) that can then be redistributed into RIP. This reduces the
number of routes advertised via RIP. Care must be taken when aggregating if
there are "holes" in the route that is aggregated.
Create an aggregate route by first specifying the network address and mask
length. Second, provide a set of contributing routes. A contributing route is
defined by specifying a source (for example, a routing protocol, a static route,
an interface route) and a route filter, which is a prefix. You can also choose to
contribute all of the routes. An aggregate route can have many contributing
routes, but at least one of the routes must be present to generate an aggregate.
Aggregate routes are not actually used for packet forwarding by the originator
of the aggregate route, only by the receiver (if it wishes). A firewall receiving
a packet which does not match one of the component routes that led to the
generation of an aggregate route should respond with an ICMP network
unreachable message. This message prevents packets for unknown
component routes from following a default route into another network where
they would be forwarded back to the border firewall, continually, until their
TTL expires.
Static Routes
Static routes are routes that you manually configure in the routing table. Static
routes cause packets moving between a source and a destination to take a
specified next hop. Static routes allow you to add routes to destinations that
are not described by dynamic routing protocols. This can be useful if dynamic
protocols cannot be used. It can also be useful in providing a default route.
Static routes consist of the following:
!Destination
!Type
!Next hop gateway
There are three types of static routes:
!Normal
!Black Hole
Voyager Reference Guide21
Page 22
1 Overview
!Reject
A normal static route is used to forward packets for a given destination in the
direction indicated by the configured firewall.
A black hole static route uses the loopback address as the next hop. This route
discards packets that match the route for a given destination.
A reject static route uses the loopback as the next hop, discards packets that
match the route for a given destination and sends an ICMP unreachable
message back to the sender of the packet.
Redistributing Routes Overview
Route redistribution controls which routes are advertised by IPSRD to other
systems, as well as which routes are redistributed between the protocols run
on the firewall.
A metric is set for any redistributed route. This metric is sent to the peer by
certain protocols and may be used by the peer to choose a better route to a
given destination. Some routing protocols can associate a metric with a route
when announcing the route.
A route filter can be used to explicitly list all the redistributed routes.
Redistributing Routes with BGP
Redistributing to BGP is controlled by an AS. The same policy is applied to
all firewalls in the AS. BGP metrics are 16-bit, unsigned quantities; that is,
they range from 0 to 65535 inclusive, with zero being the most attractive.
While BGP version 4 supports 32-bit unsigned quantities, IPSRD does not.
Note
If you do not specify a redistribution policy, only routes to attached
interfaces are redistributed. If you specify any policy, the defaults are
22Voyager Reference Guide
Page 23
overridden. You must explicitly specify everything that should be
redistributed.
Redistributing Routes with RIP and IGRP
Redistributing to RIP and IGRP is controlled by any one of three parameters:
!Protocol
!Interface
!Gateway
If more than one parameter is specified, they are processed from most general
(protocol) to most specific (gateway).
It is not possible to set metrics for redistributing RIP routes into RIP or for
redistributing IGRP routes into IGRP. Attempts to do this are silently ignored.
It is also not possible to set the metrics for redistributing routes into IGRP.
Note
If no redistribution policy is specified, RIP and interface routes are
redistributed into RIP and IGRP, and interface routes are redistributed into
IGRP. If any policy is specified, the defaults are overridden. You must
explicitly specify everything that should be redistributed.
RIP version 1 assumes that all subnets of the shared network have the same
subnet mask, so they are able to propagate only subnets of that network. RIP
version 2 removes that restriction and is capable of propagating all routes
when not sending version 1-compatible updates.
Redistributing Routes with OSPF
It is not possible to create OSPF intra-area or inter-area routes by
redistributing routes from the IPSRD routing table into OSPF. It is possible to
redistribute from the IPSRD routing table only into OSPF ASE routes. In
Voyager Reference Guide23
Page 24
1 Overview
addition, it is not possible to control the propagation of OSPF routes within
the OSPF protocol.
There are two types of OSPF ASE routes:
!Type 1
!Type 2
See the OSPF protocol configuration for a detailed explanation of the two
types.
Route Redistribution Between Protocols
The redistribute_list specifies the source of a set of routes based on
parameters like the protocol from which the source has been learned. The
redistribute_list indirectly controls the redistribution of routes between
protocols.
The syntax varies slightly per source protocol. BGP routes may be specified
by source AS. RIP and IGRP routes may be redistributed by protocol, source
interface, and/or source gateway. Both OSPF and OSPF ASE routes may be
redistributed into other protocols. All routes may be redistributed by AS path.
When BGP is configured, all routes are assigned an AS path when they are
added to the routing table. For all interior routes, this AS path specifies IGP as
the origin and no ASes in the AS path. The current AS is added when the
route is redistributed. For BGP routes, the AS path is stored as learned from
BGP.

Resolving and Preventing Full Log Buffers and
Related Console Messages
When a significant amount of your traffic is using fast path for delay-critical,
real-time routing through the firewall, the console might display one of the
following error messages:
[LOG-CRIT] kernel: FW-1: Log Buffer is full
[LOG-CRIT] kernel: FW-1: lost 500 log/trap messages
The kernel module maintains a buffer of waiting log messages that it forwards

. When this happens, the system log displays the following
message:
log records lost
The lost records are those that should have been recorded in the FW-1 log
message file (typically located in the $FWDIR/log directory).
You can use one or both of the following solutions to resolve this issue:
!Reduce the number of rules that are logged by:
! Disa bling as many accounting rules as possible
! Changing as many long logging rules to short logging as possible
! Eliminating logging entirely if it is practical to do so
!Increase the size of the kernel module buffer
Note
To perform the following procedures, use the zap or modzap utility
(which you can obtain from the Nokia Technical Assistance Center
(TAC); refer to Resolution 1261).
If you are using FireWall-1 4.1, do the following:
1. Set the execute permissions by issuing an
fwstop command.
2. To confirm that you have sufficient resources to increase the buffer

1. Move your log file(s) from the system hard drive to a server.
2. Configure the relocated files using the Check Point management client

Virtual LAN Interfaces
Virtual LAN Description
Nokia supports Virtual LAN (VLAN) interfaces on all supported ethernet
interfaces. The use of VLAN interfaces lets you configure subnets with a
secure private link to Check Point FW-1/VPN-1 with the existing topology.
The use of VLAN enables the multiplexing of ethernet traffic into channels on
a single cable.
80Voyager Reference Guide
Page 81
The Nokia implementation supports adding a logical interface with a VLAN
ID to a physical interface. In a VLAN packet, the OSI layer-two header, or
MAC header, contains four more bytes than the typical ethernet header for a
total of 18 bytes. When traffic arrives at the physical interface, the system
examines it for the VLAN layer-two header and accepts and forwards the
traffic if a VLAN logical interface is configured. If the traffic that arrives at
the physical interface does not have a VLAN header, it is directed to the
channel 0, or untagged, interface. In the Nokia implementation the untagged
channel 0 interface drops VLAN packets sent to the subnets on that interface.
Outgoing traffic from a VLAN interface is tagged with the VLAN header . The
Nokia appliance can receive and generate fully conformant IEEE 802.1Q
tags. The IEEE802.1Q standard defines the technology for virtual bridged
networks. The Nokia implementation is completely interoperable as a router,
not as a switch.

ISDN Interfaces
Integrated Services Digital Network is a system of digital phone connections
that allows voice, digital network services, and video data to be transmitted
simultaneously using end-to-end digital connectivity.
Nokia’s Network Application Platform (Nokia PlatformNokia Platform)
offers support for an ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) physical interface. The
ISDN BRI comprises one 16 Kbps D-channel for signalling and control, and
two 64 Kbps B-channels for information transfer . Nokia’ s physical interface is
Voyager Reference Guide89
Page 90
5 Configuring Interfaces
certified to conform to the European Telecommunications Standards Institute
(ETSI) ISDN standard.
The physical interface is the manageable representation of the physical
connection to ISDN. One physical interface will be visible in Voyager for
every ISDN BRI card in the Nokia Platform chassis. The physical interface
enables management of the parameters specific to each ISDN connection. It
permits enabling or disabling of the ISDN connection and is the entity under
which logical interfaces are created.
The logical interface is the logical communication end-point. It contains all
information used to set up and maintain the ISDN call. The logical interface
comprises:
!Data link encapsulation and addressing
!Call connection information such as call direction, data rate, and the
number to call
!Authentication information such as names, passwords, and authentication
method
Features
!Bandwidth allocation for Multilink PPP
After configuring the physical interface, then creating and configuring the
logical interfaces, the Nokia Platform will be ready to make and accept ISDN
calls. Detailed information on how to create and configure ISDN interfaces
begins in “Configuring a Physical Interface.”
The features supported by the ISDN interface are summarized below:
!Security—PAP (RFC 1334), CHAP (RFC 1994), and ISDN Caller ID
90Voyager Reference Guide
Page 91
!Dial-on-demand routing—The ISDN interface can be configured so that
only certain types of traffic establish and maintain an ISDN connection.
Circuits are automatically torn down if they are not required.
!Dynamic bandwidth allocation—The ISDN interface can be configured to
add or remove additional bandwidth as the traffic requires it.
!Multiple destination support—An ISDN interface can be configured to
connect to two different destinations simultaneously.
!Dial-in support—The ISDN interface can be configured to accept
incoming calls from remote sites.

outgoing B-channel exceeds the utilization level threshold for a period of
time greater than the utilization period, the second B-channel will be
brought into operation. When the outgoing B-channel utilization falls
below the utilization level for a period of time greater than the value of
the utilization period, the second B-channel will be removed from
operation.
A utilization level of zero means that the second B-channel is never
brought into operation. To bring the second B-channel into operation
quickly, set the utilization level to a low number, such as one.

box, enter the utilization period. This value specifies the number of
seconds the outgoing B-channel utilization must remain above the
utilization level before a second channel is brought into operation. Once a
second B-channel has been added, this value specifies the nu mber of
seconds that the utilization of the outgoing B-channel must be below the
utilization level before the second B-channel is removed from operation.
A utilization period set to zero will cause the second B-channel to be
brought into operation immediately; the utilization level has been
exceeded. It will also cause the second B-channel to be removed from
operation; immediately the measured utilization drops below the
utilization level.

To configure Calling Line-Identification Screening
Incoming calls to the Nokia Platform can be filtered using the calling number
in the received SETUP message. Calling Line Identification (CLID) must be
supported by the network to filter calls using the calling number.
When an incoming call is received, the calling number in the received SETUP
message is checked against the incoming numbers configured on each logical
interface. The calling number is compared with each incoming call using the
“right-most-digits” algorithm. A number matches if the shortest string
between the received calling number and the incoming number is the same.
For example, if the calling number received was 345 and the logical interface
has an incoming number of 12345, then this is deemed a match.
The call is answered on the interface that is configured with the incoming
number with the highest number of matching digits. If no matching incoming
number is found, the call is rejected.
If no incoming numbers are configured on an interface then any incoming call
is deemed a match.
Information on how to add and delete incoming numbers to the logical
interface is detailed below.
