ISDN Support

The BayStack 820 ISDN Router is specifically designed to take advantage of ISDN for transmission of data over digital telephone networ ks. A basic rate interface (BRI), which is the usual IS DN impleme ntation, consists of two 6 4 kilobits per second (Kb/s) B channels for data and one 16 Kb/s D channel for control information.

The router supports bandwidth on demand, a feature that minimizes bandwidth consumption becaus e a conn ect ion is established only if there is data to be sent to a remote site. The router does no t est ablish a connection until there is a reques t to do so. For example, when a user on one network tries to access another network on your private WAN (or tries to access the Internet), the router establishes a B channel connection to the remote network. As traffic to the remote network increases and bandwidth demand increases, the router establishes another connection to the In terne t thr ough the second B channe l and r outes tr af fic throug h that connection as well. As traffic decreases, the router disconnects the second B channel. And after a specified period of inactivity, the router disconnects the remaining B channel.

Connectivity Features

The BayStack 820 ISDN Router supports sever al connec ti vi ty fe at ures, including branch-to-branch access, placing conventional telephone calls over ISDN lines, remote dial-in acces s, In ternet access, private server access over publ ic networks, and virtual private networking (VPN).

Virtual Private Network

The BayStack 820 ISDN Router supports virtual private networks (VPNs), a special type of connection that permits remote LANs to communicate with another LAN over a publi c networ k, su ch as th e Inter net. When users c onnect this way, you incur only local toll char ge s to your ISP. As a security measure, the data can be encrypted before it travels across the VPN to ensure privacy.

206901-A 1-7

Installation and Reference for the BayStack 820 ISDN Router

To create a VPN, a special connection, called a “tunnel,” is first established between the two sites. Tunnels allow IP, IPX, and bridging traffic to flow across IP networks, including NetBIOS information (for Windows networking) encapsulated with in IP or IP X packet s. Through th e VPN tunnel, a ll resou rces and applications on the remote LAN become available to the local site.

You can specify Data Encryption Standard (DES) encryption for user data sessions through tunnels to assure privacy. The use of the various levels of encryption within a router is subject to United States export control regulations.

You configure a VPN tun nel in a similar manner to a conventional telephone line. Data is transferred only when a user connection is established, therefore authentication is not required when you establish the tunnel. You must, however, configure authen ticatio n informatio n for the connec tion profil e that is used for the user data session flowing through the tunnel. After the tunnel is established, one or more user data sessions can flow through the tunnel.

When a workstation on the LAN sends data to a resource reachable through a VPN connection profile, a tunnel to the remote site is established and the VPN user data session starts, beginning with a PPP authentication exchange.

When a remote site requests that a tunnel be established, the router searches for a connection profile that matches the connection request. When the tunnel is established, the remote site initiates a user s es si on to flow through that tunnel and the router searches for a VPN connection profile that matches the request. When the router verifies the matching VPN connection profile, the information in the Profile is used to authe nticate the incoming call, and then data transfer begins.

Figure 1-6. Two Private Networks with Internet Access

In this illustration, all devices on both LANs (except for the Web server) are configured to obtain their IP addresses automatically from the built-in DHCP server in the BaySta ck 820 ISDN Router. Because these IP addresses are used only in the local LAN environment, these devices naturally form a private network with default network IP addresses of 192.168.168.xxx, and cannot be accessed from the Internet. For a server to be accessible from the Internet, it must be mapped to a TCP/UDP port in the BayStack 820 ISDN Router Manager software using Network Addres s Translation.

Network Address Translation

Network Address Translation (NAT) is a powerful and economical way to allowing Internet access to public servers on your netw ork (for example, an e-mail server, an FTP server, or a Web server) without applying for or configuring public IP addresses. NAT not only provides the benefits and administrative simplicity of a using a single IP address ISP account, it provides the flexibility of a configurable combination of secure, privately-addressed workstations and port mapped publicly-accessible applications.

Understanding the Installation Environment

Before you begin, t he re ar e some things you should understand a nd deci si ons you need to make to ensure a smooth and successful installation. The information in this section will help you understand and make those decisions.

Introduction

Understanding IP Addressing

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a numeric identifier for a workstation or device on a T ransmissi on Control Pr otocol/Int ernet Protoc ol (TCP/IP) networ k. IP addresses follow the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn where nnn is a number between 0 and 255, for example , 192.168.168. 230 or 10.1.1.1. IP a ddresses enable de vices t o talk to each ot her a nd both serve rs an d wor kstat ions on a ne twork mus t have an I P address.

There are two types of IP addresses:

• Dynamic – A dynamic IP address may change. Dynamic IP addresses are assigned to devices by an IP address server as the device needs it. Usually there is a particular range (or scope) of IP addresses that your network uses. With dynamic IP addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. Other devices need to know the device’s IP address so that they can communicate with it and the IP address server manages the assignment of IP addresses to the devices.

206901-A 1-11

Installation and Reference for the BayStack 820 ISDN Router

• Static – A static (or fixed) IP address does not change. It is assigned to a device permanently. The device has the same IP address every time it connects to the network and is known to ot her devices on the network by that IP address. Because the router on your network is also the gateway to other networks and to the Internet, it must have a static IP address.The router is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.168.230 on its own private network.

Understanding Static IP Addresses

If you are already using static IP addresses for your network workstations, you have two options. You can:

• Keep using static IP addresses. If you do this, you must assign a static IP address to the router and inform the workstatio ns that the router is the gateway to remote networks.

• Change from static IP addresses to dynamic IP addresses by setting up the router as a DHCP server. This is the recommended configuration. If you do this, you mu st inform the workstations that they will be getting their IP addresses assigned by the router.

Understanding DHCP Servers

The IP address server that manages the IP addresses is called a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. By default, the BayStack 820 ISDN Router is set up to be your network’s DHCP server and it assigns IP addresses to the devices on your network as they need them. This is the recommended configuration for the router.

When you set up the rout er as your network’s DHCP server, you must inform the workstations that they will be getting their new IP addresses assigned by the router. To do this, you may need to change the configuration of each workstation individually.

If you already have a DHCP server, you must inform server that the router is the default gateway for the workstations.

1-12 206901-A

Understanding Gateways and DNS Servers

When you access a remote LAN or Internet We b site through the router, it functions as the gateway to other networks.

• Gateway – A gateway is a system that links two networks and enables them to communicate with each other. When you use the router, the router is the gateway that links your company’s network to another network or to the Internet. Depending on your configuration, you may need to inform the workstations that the router is the gateway to remote networks.

• DNS Server – A Domain Name Service (DNS) server translates human-readable domain names into computer-readable IP addresses. For example, the domain na me www.nortelnetworks.com for the Nort el Network s Web site might translate t o t he I P address 134.177.3.28. After a domain name is translated into an IP address, the workstations on your network can communicate with the Web site. As a DHCP server, the BayStack 820 ISDN Router automatically assigns DNS addresses to the workstations.

Introduction

Understanding How the BayStack 820 ISDN Router Works with Your Existing DHCP Server

You can have only one IP address server on the network—either an existing DHCP server or the BayStack 820 ISDN Router. If you already have a DHCP server or do not want to use the router as a DHCP server, you must assign a static IP address to the router and then let all of your workstations know that the router is the gateway to remote networks.

After you assign a static IP address to the router, you must do two things on your DHCP ser ver. You m ust:

• Exclude the static IP address that you reserved for the router from the range (or scope) of IP addresses on the DHCP server.

• Inform the DHCP server that the router is the gateway and DNS proxy so that the DHCP server can inform the workstations.

Preparing for an ISDN Connection

The ISDN communications connection provides the link between the router and the public switched networ k. Before you conne ct to an ISDN network, be sure you meet the following requir em en ts.

North America Requirements

For North American services, make sure you:

• Order the appropriate installation and service from your local telephone company (Telco).

• If you require Caller Line Identification (CL I) for security, y ou order the CLI option from your local carrier.

• Have an ISDN U connection on the wall outlet.

• Order the appropriate Internet access service from your Internet service

provider (ISP), if you require Internet service.

Installing the Router

• Know the type of switch at your Telco. The router auto-detects the type of switch. Knowing the swit ch type at your Telco can help you verify that the router detected the correct switch.

• Know the configuration mode of your ISDN line. You can configure the router in the standard National ISDN-1 mode or in a manufacturer-specific mode.

• Know the Service Profile Identifier (SPID) number(s) assigned to your devices. The router usually automatically detects the associated SPID numbers, but if it does not, you must provide them.

• Know the directory number(s) assigned to your ISDN line.

206901-A 2-5

Choosing IP Addresses

If you are setting up LAN-to-LAN communications, each network must have a unique range of IP addresses. When you use the router’s built-in DHCP feature, the router automatically assigns IP addresses to the network workstations.

You can change the pri vat e I P add ress of the router and, consequently, the pool of addresses from which the DHCP server assigns addresses.

206901-A 2-7

Installation and Reference for the BayStack 820 ISDN Router

Connecting the BayStack 820 ISDN Router to the Network

Because the BaySt ack 820 ISDN Router is a DHCP server wi th its own private IP addressing scheme, you must use a standalone workstation to configure the BayStack 820 ISDN Ro uter for the first time.

Note: Before you begin, make sure that the workstation you use to set up the

router is not connected to your network. If you do not have a standalone workstation, temporarily disconnect a workstation from the network. The workstation you use to configure the router must have TCP/IP loaded and be configured to obt ain and IP address automatically (DHCP op ti on) . For det ai ls , refer to “Configuring a Workstation to Use the Router” on page 2-12

Installing the BayStack 820 ISDN Router

To install the BayStack 820 ISDN Router:

1. Place the router on a flat surface.

Caution: Use a Green/Yellow Protected Earth (PE) wire and a star washer to

ground the metal case of t he route r to the nearest PE ter mina l. The router must remain grounded during normal operation. (Before you connect the PE wire, use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the plastic protector from the ground outlet on the back of the router.)

2. Connect the power cord to the power adapter.

3. Connect the power adapter to the power receptacle on the back of the

router and connect the power cord to an AC wall outlet (Figure 2-3)

Restarting the workstation enables the router (as a DHCP server) to give the workstation an IP address from its private network, forming a mini-network between the router and the workstation.

8. Connect up to four devices to the router. a. Connect one end of the 10BASE-T LAN cable to an Ethernet port on

the front of the router.

b. If necessary, disconnect the workstation from the network. c. Connect the other end of the 10BASE-T LAN cable to the Ethernet

port on the workstat ion.

If you want to connect more than four devices to the router, you can connect an external hub to the 4/Uplink port using a straigh t- thr oug h ca ble and set the port to Uplink. For details, refer to “

You can create several types of connection profiles, including:

• Branch-to-branch connection profile to support branch-to-branch remote access. For details, refer to Chapter 4, “Configuring Remote Office Access

.”

• Dial-in user connection profile to support remote users dialing in to your network. For details, refer to Chapter 5, “Configuring Dial-In User Access.”

• Internet access connect ion profi le to suppor t basi c Interne t access. Fo r detail s, refer to Chapter 6, “Configuring Internet Access

.”

• VPN access connection profile to support a virtual private network (optional feature). For details, refer to Chapter 4, “Co nfiguring R emote Office Access

.”

Profile information includes dial-up phone numbers, authentication information (the local user name and password and possibly the remote site user name password). Depending on the type of profile you are creating, other information may be required.

3-8 206901-A

Configuring ISDN Port Settings

Before the router can support remote communications, you need to configure the router’s ISDN settings. To configure the ISDN settings, you must have the information in the “Installation Worksheet” on page 2-7

Switches in North America often require Service Profile Identifier (SPID) numbers. In many such cases, the router can automatically detect both the switch type and the SPID numbers. Certain types of North American switches can also detect the ISDN Directory Numbers. Normally, if the router is connected to this type of switch, all of the required information is automatically detected when t he ISDN line is initialized. If the router cannot detect a Directory Number, you must enter it manually. If you select Auto Detect as the ISDN switch type, you must enter the ISDN Direct ory Numbers.

Note: If you need more detailed information than this section provides, want

to configure advanced ISDN settings, or want to configure only an Internet access connection profile, refer to Chapter 6, “Configuring Internet Access

Getting Started

.”

Configuring Basic ISDN Port Settings

Setting the System Time

The BayStack 820 ISDN Router maintains a real-time clock that is automatically set to the local time of the management workstation the first time you connect to the BayStack 820 ISDN Router Manager software.

The time is used to provide time stamps for Connection Log and System Log entries and to determine Internet access time restrictions (see “

Access Time Restrictions” on page 6-11).

Because the router does not use a backup battery for the real-time clock, the time is not maintained across system resets or power cycles. Therefore, after a reset or power cycle, you must connect to the router to reset the clock. The time zone and daylight savings time indicator are saved across power cycles.

Configuring Dial-In User Access

This chapter describ es how to configure dia l-in access use r connection prof iles for remote access.

Standalone remote works tations use a dial-in user connectio n profile to connect to the router over a switched connection such as over an ISDN line. The connected workstation effectively becomes a LAN node for the duration of the connection and its ARP information is proxied by the router.

When a switched call is answered, the router searches the local profile database for a match with the received name and password. If an appropriate profile is not found, the call is rejected. If a profile is found, other information in the entry is used to configure the connection.

To allow dial-in access from remote users, you must select Dial-in Access for Off-Site Users in the BayStack 820 ISDN Router Manager customization dialog box. If you want to configure NetWare resources for remote access connections, select Share NetWare (IPX) Resource. For details, refer to “
