Introduction to Hotwire DSL Routers

What is a Hotwire DSL Router?

The Hotwirer DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) Router operates as an IP router connecting a DSL link to an Ethernet network. This system provides high-speed access to the Internet or a corporate network over a traditional twisted-pair copper telephone line to the end user.

DSL Technologies Supported

1
Paradyne’s Hotwire DSL network supports the following types of technologies:
H Hotwire IDSL (ISDN DSL) products provide IDSL multirate symmetric packet
transport and can operate over a connection with an ISDN repeater or digital facilities. Data rates of 64 kbps, 128 kbps, or 144 kbps can be configured.
H Hotwire RADSL (Rate Adaptive DSL) products are applicable for both
asymmetric and symmetric applications. The 1 Mbps symmetric operation is ideal for traditional business applications while the 7 Mbps downstream with
1.1 Mbps upstream asymmetric operation provides added bandwidth for corporate Internet access. RADSL products can also save line costs by optionally supporting simultaneous data and voice over the same line.
H Hotwire SDSL (Symmetric DSL) packet-based products provide high-speed
symmetric DSL services with bandwidth for business applications. These products are configurable from 144 kbps up to 2.3 Mbps. This gives service providers the opportunity to sell multiple services with a single product.

Introduction to Hotwire DSL Routers

Typical DSL Router System

DSL is a local loop technology that uses standard twisted-pair copper wire to support high-speed access over a single pair of twisted copper wires. DSL applications are point-to-point, requiring DSL devices at the central site and at the end-user site.
The Hotwire DSL routers interoperate with the following types of Hotwire IP DSL cards (at the DSLAM/GranDSLAM chassis) to deliver applications at high speeds in support of packet services over a DSL link:
H The Hotwire 8303 or 8304 IP IDSL Cards interoperate with two Hotwire IDSL
Routers:
— Hotwire 6301 IDSL Router with one Ethernet port — Hotwire 6302 IDSL Router with a 4-port Ethernet hub
H The Hotwire 8343 or 8344 SDSL Cards interoperate with two Hotwire

Introduction to Hotwire DSL Routers

Service Subscriber

The Service Subscriber is the user (or set of users) that has contracted to receive networking services (e.g., Internet access, remote LAN access) for the end-user system from an NSP (Network Service Provider). Service subscribers may be:
H Residential users connected to public network services (e.g., the Internet) H Work-at-home users connected to their corporate intranet LAN H Commercial users at corporate locations (e.g., branch offices) connected to
other corporate locations or connected to public network services
The Hotwire DSL Router must be installed at the customer premises to provide the end user with access to any of the above services.

Accessing the DSL Router

Access Control to the DSL Router

The Hotwire DSL Router can be managed from an NMS using SNMP or from the command line interface. There are two methods to access the command line interface:
H Local access at the DSL router through the Console port, or H Access by a Telnet session (controlled through the management interface at
the Hotwire chassis).
2

Levels of Access

When a local console connection is first established, a login prompt appears. The Hotwire DSL Router accepts only one login session at a time. The DSL Router is configured at the factory with a default login ID and password. However, to provide login security to the DSL system, configure a new login ID and password.
There is one login ID and two levels of privileges on the Hotwire DSL system. Your user account can be configured with one user name and different passwords for:
H Administrator. The Administrator has two levels of access to the DSL router.
— Administrator, non-configuration mode: Provides read-only capabilities.
This is the same level of access as Operator. — Administrator, configuration mode: Provides complete write access to the
DSL router. However, MIB sets are done from the NMS vs. the command
line.
H Operator. The Operator has read-only access to display device information
with no modification permission and no access to management functions.
Refer to Appendix A, command line entry.

Changing Access Session Levels

H You can change the Administrator access level by entering:
admin enable
This command provides Administrator access level privileges. The DSL router will respond with a prompt to enter the password for Administrator access.
H You can end the Administrator access level by entering:
admin disable
This command results in ending the Administrator access level session. No password is needed.
Entering exit has the same results. Refer to page 2-5 for further details on ending a session.
The Operator and Administrator have the same Login ID with different passwords for their access level. To determine the level of access for a session, refer to
Determining the Current Access Level
on page 2-4.

Local Console Access

The DSL router ships with the local console enabled. After login, the local console can be disabled with the command console disable. After saving this change and ending the session, there is no local access through the console port. Any access must be through a Telnet session or the NMS.
NOTE:
Entering console disable results in NO local access to the DSL router. If you attempt to log in, you will receive an error message.
To determine via a Telnet session if a console is enabled, enter:
show console
The display returned for the show console command will be:
H console enabled – Command line management at the console is
available, or
H console disabled – No command line management is available at the
console.

Configuring the DSL Router

Overview of DSL Router Configuration

The Hotwire DSL Routers support various customer premises distribution networks that contain IP forwarding devices or routers, in addition to locally attached hosts or subnets. The Hotwire DSL Router has an IP Routing Table that contains IP address and subnet mask information.
The DSL router supports Internet Protocol as specified in RFC 791 and Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) as specified in RFCs 792 and 950. The DSL router acts as a router (or gateway) as defined in RFC 791.

For more information on supported RFCs, refer to Appendix C,

Interfaces for the DSL Router

The Hotwire DSL Router has two interfaces:
H DSL Interface
The Hotwire DSL Router interface type is determined by the model number:
— 6301 and 6302 are Hotwire IDSL Routers — 6341 and 6342 are Hotwire SDSL Routers — 6371 is a Hotwire RADSL Router
The DSL interface has a unique MAC address assigned before shipping.
Traps & MIBs.
6371-A2-GB20-10
3-1
Configuring the DSL Router
H Ethernet Interface
— All DSL routers have an Ethernet interface with a unique MAC address
assigned before shipping.
— The Ethernet interface is a 10/100BaseT interface that automatically
negotiates the rate. If all attached Ethernet devices support 100BaseT, the DSL router will default to 100BaseT. Otherwise, the DSL router operates at 10BaseT.
— The DSL router can be configured for either DIX format or IEEE 802.3
format. When the DSL router is configured to use IEEE 802.3 format, the DSL router uses SNAP encapsulation as specified in RFC 1042.
— The Hotwire 6302 IDSL and the 6342 SDSL Routers each have a hub
configuration with four Ethernet connectors. The hub acts as a bit-level repeater. There is logically one Ethernet communications interface and one single collision domain.
— The DSL router only accepts frames on the Ethernet interface with its
own MAC address or a broadcast or multicast MAC address.

Ethernet and DSL Interface Identifiers

The following are the naming conventions used for the Hotwire DSL Router interfaces:
H eth1 (or e0) – Ethernet interface name. H dsl1 (or d0) – DSL interface name.

Service Domain IP Address Assignments

H Multiple Service Domains can be defined using network addresses and
subnet masks.
H For both the DSL interface and the Ethernet interface, four Service Domain
IP Addresses and subnet masks can be defined.

Numbered DSL Interface

In this scenario, the hosts attached to the DSL router’s Ethernet interface are on a different logical network than the core router. The DSL router is the next hop router for the hosts. The upstream next hop router for the DSL router is the core router.

Configuring the DSL Router

IP Routing

The DSL router uses destination-based routing for downstream traffic. An IP Routing Table is maintained to specify how to forward IP datagrams downstream. The DSL router is capable of supporting 32 entries in the IP Routing Table. This table can be viewed by both Operator and Administrator access levels.
The DSL router uses source-based forwarding for upstream traffic to ensure that packets are forwarded to the upstream router specified for the configured Service Domain.
Refer to Chapter 4,

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)

Address Resolution Protocol, as specified in RFC 826, is supported in the DSL router. The DSL router provides for a total of 265 ARP table entries. The timeout for completed and uncompleted ARP table entries is configurable.
NOTE:
The DSL router does not process ARP requests and ARP responses on its DSL interface when it is configured to support RFC 1483 PDU routing (Standard mode). See information. The operating mode (Standard or VNET) can be changed from the DSL card without requiring any reconfiguration of the DSL router. If any static ARP entries have been configured, they will remain in the database and can be displayed with the show arp command. You can create static ARP entries regardless of the current operating mode.
The Command Line Interface provides the ability to:
H Create up to 64 static ARP table entries to be retained across power cycles.

Proxy ARP

H Display the ARP table. H Delete ARP table entries. H Display and delete automatically added static ARP table entries by the DHCP
server and relay functions. Refer to
(DHCP) Server
The DSL router supports Proxy ARP. Proxy ARP responses are based on the IP Routing table contents. The IP Routing table must have an entry for every host that is reachable on the Ethernet interface, including hosts for which the DSL router will not forward packets because of IP filters. If an ARP request is received on one interface for an IP address that is reachable on the other interface, the DSL router will respond with its own MAC address.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
NOTE:
The Proxy ARP option is not available on the DSL interface when the DSL router is configured to support RFC 1483 PDU routing. See
Bridged PDUs
The Command Line Interface provides the ability to enable and disable Proxy ARP for each interface.

Configuring the DSL Router

Network Address Translation (NAT)

Network Address Translation is used when a private network’s internal IP addresses cannot be used outside the private network. The IP addresses may be restricted for privacy reasons or they may not be valid public IP addresses.

Basic NAT

The DSL router provides NAT as described in
Translator (NAT)
public (global) external IP addresses. Two variations of traditional NAT are supported:
H Basic NA T H Network Address Port Translation (NAPT)
. NAT allows the private (local) hosts to transparently access
RFC 1631 The IP Network Address
NOTE:
Basic NAT and NAPT cannot be enabled at the same time.
Basic NAT allows hosts in a private network to transparently access the external network by using a block of public addresses. Static mapping enables access to selected local hosts from the outside. Basic NAT is often used in a large organization with a large network setup for internal use and the need for occasional external access.
Basic NAT provides a one-to-one mapping by translating a range of assigned public IP addresses to a similar-sized pool of private addresses (typically from the

address space). Each local host currently communicating with a external

Network Address Port Translation (NAPT)

NAPT allows multiple clients in a local network to simultaneously access remote networks using a single IP address. This benefits telecommuters and SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) users that have multiple clients in an office running TCP/UDP applications. NAPT is sometimes referred to as PAT (Port Address Translation).
NAPT provides a many-to-one mapping and uses one public address to interface numerous private users to an external network. All hosts on the global side view all hosts on the local side as one Internet host. The local hosts continue to use their corporate or private addresses. When the hosts are communicating with each other, the translation is based on the IP address and the IP port numbers used by TCP/IP applications.
3-6
6371-A2-GB20-10

IP Options Processing

Configuring the DSL Router
The NAT and NAPT functions handle and process the IP datagrams with options set as described below. No command is available to set IP options.
The DSL Router does not process (and drops) any IP datagrams with the following IP options:
H Loose source and record route (type 131) H Strict source and record route (type 133) H Security (type 130) H Stream ID (type 136)
The DSL Router does process IP datagrams with the following IP options, but does not provide its IP address or timestamp information in the response message:
H Record route (type 7) H Timestamp (type 68)

Applications Supported by NAT

The DSL routers support the following applications and protocols:
H FTP H HTTP H NetMeeting H Ping H RealPlayer H Telnet H TFTP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Server

The DSL router provides a DHCP Server feature as specified in RFC 2131, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, and RFC 2132, DHCP Option and BOOTP Vendor Extensions. DHCP is the protocol used for automatic IP address assignment.
DHCP setup considerations:
6371-A2-GB20-10
H The range of IP addresses to be used by the DHCP server must be
configured. The maximum number of clients is 256.
H The DHCP server must be enabled.

(optional).
For additional information, refer to Chapter 4,
Examples.

DHCP Relay Agent

The DSL router provides the capability of serving as a DHCP Relay Agent, as specified in RFC 2131, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DSL router provides the capability to enable and disable the DHCP Relay Agent and to configure the IP address of the DHCP server to which the DHCP requests are to be forwarded.
The DHCP server assigns an IP address to the end-user system. When DHCP Relay is enabled, it is possible to limit the number of DHCP clients. The DSL router’s IP Routing table and ARP table are automatically updated. The DHCP relay agent in the DSL router should be used when there is a DHCP server upstream in the service domain. DHCP relay agent setup considerations:
H DHCP server IP address must be configured. H DHCP relay must be enabled. H The number of DHCP clients can be limited to 1—256. H DHCP server and DHCP relay functions cannot be enabled at the same time. H NAT and DHCP relay cannot be enabled at the same time.

Security

IP Filtering

Configuring the DSL Router
The DSL router offers security via the following:
H IP Filtering – Can be enabled or disabled. H Land Bug/Smurf Attack Prevention – Always present.
NOTE:
All Hotwire DSL Router filters are configured on the Hotwire DSL card.
By default, filtering is disabled on the Hotwire DSL card for the DSL router. If enabled, filtering provides security advantages on LANs by restricting traffic on the network and hosts based on the IP source and/or destination addresses.
IP packets can be filtered based on:
H Destination IP Address H IP Protocol Type H Source and Destination Port Number (if applicable) H Source IP Address H TCP Filter (prevents the receipt of downstream TCP connect requests)
NOTE:
If the Source IP Address filter is enabled on the Hotwire card and an IP address is assigned to the DSL interface, there must also be an entry configured in the Hotwire Client Table for the DSL interface’s IP address.
For more information about IP filtering, see the
SDSL Cards, Models 8310/8312, 8510/8373/8374, 8303/8304, and 8343/8344, User’s Guide.

Land Bug/Smurf Attack Prevention

Land Bug and Smurf Attack prevention are enhanced firewall features provided by the DSL Router:
H Land Bug – The DSL router drops all packets received on its DSL interface
or Ethernet interface when the source IP address is the same as the destination IP address. This prevents the device from being kept busy by constantly responding to itself.
Hotwire MVL, RADSL, IDSL, and
6371-A2-GB20-10
H Smurf Attack – The DSL Router will not forward directed broadcasts on its
DSL and Ethernet interfaces, nor will it send an ICMP echo reply to the broadcast address. This ensures that a legitimate user will be able to use the network connection even if ICMP echo/reply (smurf) packets are sent to the broadcast address.
3-9
Configuring the DSL Router

Routed vs. Bridged PDUs

The DSL router supports both the VNET model and the 1483 Routed model (derived from RFC 1483) for the transportation of PDUs (Protocol Data Units) from the DSL router to the router in the core network. When operating in Standard mode, the DSL router supports both routed and bridged PDUs. When operating in VNET mode, the DSL router supports bridged PDUs only.
NOTE:
Standard mode vs. VNET mode is configured on the DSL card at the DSLAM/GranDSLAM chassis.
Both ends of the network (e.g., the DSL router and the DSL line card or the core router) must be configured to operate the same way (i.e., routed or bridged).
