Data Protection and Data Security
1.4Data Protection and Data Security
This system also processes and uses personal data for purposes such as call detail recording,
displays, and customer data acquisition.
In Germany, the processing and use of personal data are subject to various regulations, including the regulations of the Federal Data Protection Law (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz = BDSG).
For other countries, please follow the appropriate national laws.
The aim of data protection is to protect the rights of individuals being affected by use of their
personal data.
In addition, the aim of data protection is to prevent the misuse of data when it is processed and
to ensure that one’s own interests and the interests of other parties which need to be protected
are not affected.
Members of Siemens and Siemens Rolm staff are required to observe business and data
secrecy as a result of the company’s work rules.
In order to ensure that the statutory requirements during service – whether during "on-site service" or during "remote service" – are consistently met, you should always observe the following
rules. You will not only maintain the interests of your and our customers, you will also avoid personal consequences.
Conscious action helps maintain data protection and data security:
●Ensure that only appropriately authorized persons have access to customer data.
●Take full advantage of password assignment options; do not allow unauthorized persons
to gain access to passwords by writing them down on a piece of paper or through other
means.
●Ensure that no unauthorized person is able to process (store, modify, transmit, disable, de-
lete) or use customer data in any way.
●Prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to data media, e. g., on backup disks
or printed reports. This applies to service calls as well as to storage and transport.
●Ensure that data media which are no longer required are completely destroyed. Ensure
that no papers remain generally available.
Work together with your contacts at the customer’s company: This creates mutual confidence and reduces your own workload.

Configuring/installing Quality of Service
2.2Configuring/installing Quality of Service
General
optiClient 130 can use the Windows QoS packet scheduler (Quality of Service) for network traffic control in order to optimize voice quality. This service gives telephony packages priority over
"normal" data packets. The following applies depending on the Windows variant installed on
the client PC:
●Windows 2000 / XP:
The QoS features required are supported by the operating system. The required configuration steps are described below.
●under Windows 98SE:
Only limited QoS features, if any, are supported. No further configuration steps are required for activation.
If QoS is to be implemented, the service must be installed and configured on the client PC.
The following may occur when transferring data in IP networks:
●Time problems as a result of large e-mail attachments and Web surfing
●Network congestion as a result of multiple requests for the same Web page
●Reduced voice quality as a result of:
–delays
–jitter
–packet loss
Quality of Service incorporates various methods to ensure the transfer of certain properties in
packet-oriented networks (IP).
It is therefore important to ensure a minimum bandwidth for the duration of the transfer for Voice
over IP, for example. The available bandwidth of a transmission path (a 64 Kbps ISDN B channel, for example) is divided up if several applications run simultaneously via IP. As a result, packet losses leading to poor voice quality may occur in the case of a voice connection.
In HiPath networks, various types of traffic are transported via a single IP infrastructure. Quality
of Service aims to meet data and voice traffic requirements.
A high priority must be assigned to voice traffic to prevent it from being suppressed by data traffic. In addition, it must be specified that high-priority traffic is to be transferred before low-priority
traffic. These specifications are performed in Layer 2 and 3:
●In Layer 2, the three bits are used in the 802.1p field (the part of the 802.1Q day).

Nur für den internen Gebrauch
Installation
Configuring/installing Quality of Service
●In Layer 3, the six bits of the DiffServ Code Point (DSCP) field are used in the Type of Ser-
vice (ToS) byte of the IP header.
It is also important to ensure that there is sufficient bandwidth within the QoS class (Codepoint/
IEEE802.1p User Priority) used.
QoS activation for the optiClient
1.QoS must only be activated in optiClient 130 V4.0 Administration for use under Windows
2000 (see Section 3.2.3, “Configuring Parameters for PC Performance”).
2.QoS must be provided on the relevant client PCs, i.e. installed and configured.
3.An unused QoS service for network traffic management, must be deactivated on the client
PCs.
To install and configure QoS on the client PC, proceed as follows:
For optimum network traffic control, the optiClient client PC with the installed net-
>
work adapter as well as all other relevant components (routers, switches, servers,
etc.) must support QoS.
