Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Preface

About Your Prestige

Congratulations on your purchase of the Prestige ISDN Router.
The Prestige 100 and 100IH are high-performance routers that offer complete solutions for your

WAN (Wide Area Network) applications such as Internet access, LAN-to-LAN connections,
telecommuting and remote access over ISDN (Integrated Service Digital Network).

The Prestige 100 and 100IH are identical except that the 100IH has a built-in 4-port Ethernet hub.
We will refer to both models as the Prestige from now on and to individual models by their full
name (Prestige 100 or Prestige 100IH).

You do not need to set any switches to configure the Prestige. The user-friendly Prestige Web
Configurator (PWC) is a JAVA based utility that allows you to manage the Prestige via a
Worldwide Web browser. You can also manage the Prestige via the SMT (System Management
Terminal), a menu-driven interface that you can access from either a terminal emulator or telnet.

Setup Information

ISDN Line

1. Contact your local telephone company’s ISDN Ordering Center to find out what type of ISDN

service is available and the switch type.

2. When the telephone company installs your ISDN line, please be sure to obtain and write down the

following information for future use:

• ISDN switch type

• ISDN telephone number(s)

• ISDN Service Profile Identifiers (SPID) number(s) (only for North America).

Supplemental services such as Call Forwarding are supported by the Prestige but must be
subscribed to separately from the telephone company.

Ethernet Setup Information

IP Address - The IP Address is the unique 32-bit number assigned to your Prestige. This address

is written in dotted decimal notation (four 8-bit numbers, between 0 and 255, separated by
periods), e.g., 192.168.1.1.

Management & Maintenance (Chapters 8-10)

Troubleshooting (Chapter 11)

Please note that every machine on a network must have a unique IP address - do not assign an
arbitrary address to any machine. If you are not sure as to which IP address to assign to the
Prestige, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or refer to Chapter 3 of this guide for more
details.

IP Subnet Mask - An IP address consists of two parts, the network ID and the host ID. The IP
Subnet Mask is used to specify the network ID portion of the address, expressed in dotted decimal
notation. The Prestige automatically calculates this mask based on the IP address that you assign.
Unless you have a special need for subnetting, use the default mask as calculated by the Prestige.

Preface xvii

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Chapter 1

Getting to Know Your ISDN Router

1.1 Features of the Prestige

ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) Support

The Prestige supports a single BRI. A BRI offers two 64 Kbps channels, which can be used
independently for two destinations or be bundled to speed up data transfer.

Extensive Analog Phone Support

The Prestige is equipped with two standard phone jacks for you to connect analog devices such as
telephones and FAX machines. It also supports supplementary services such as call waiting and
3-way calling.

Single User Account (SUA)

The SUA™ (Single User Account) feature allows multiple users to share a single IP address
(either dynamic or static) assigned by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Incoming Call Support

In addition to making outgoing calls, the Prestige allows you to configure it as a remote access
server for telecommuting employees.

TCP/IP and PPP Support

♦ TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network layer protocol.
♦ PPP/MP (Point-to-Point Protocol/Multilink Protocol) link layer protocol.

Integrated 4-Port Ethernet Hub (P100IH only)

The Prestige 100IH is equipped with a built-in 4-port Ethernet 10Base-T hub. The built-in hub
eliminates the need to purchase a separate hub when building a one to four-port network. For a
larger number of workstations, additional hubs can be daisy-chained to the Prestige.

Getting to know your Prestige 1-1

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

AUI Interface (P100 only)

The Prestige 100 has an additional AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) or 10 Base-5 port in addition
to a 10 Base-T port. The AUI allows you to connect the Prestige to a thicknet cable. If you have
thinnet cable (10 Base-2) you need an external transceiver to connect the Prestige to the cable.

Dial-On-Demand

The Dial-On-Demand feature allows the Prestige to automatically place a call to a remote
gateway based on the triggering packet’s destination without user intervention.

PPP Multilink

The Prestige can bundle multiple links in a single connection using PPP Multilink Protocol (MP).
The number of links can be either statically configured or dynamically managed based on traffic
demand.

Bandwidth-On-Demand

The Prestige dynamically allocates bandwidth by dialing and dropping connections according to
traffic demand.

Full Network Management

♦ Accessing SMT (System Management Terminal) through telnet connection.
♦ Web-based PWC (Prestige Web Configurator).

Logging and Tracing

♦ CDR (Call Detail Record) to help to analyze and manage the telephone bill.
♦ Built-in message logging and packet tracing.
♦ Unix syslog facility support.

PAP and CHAP Security

The Prestige supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP; however, PAP is readily available on
more platforms.

DHCP Support

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the workstations on your LAN to obtain
the configuration from the Prestige.

1-2 Getting to know your Prestige

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Call Control

Your Prestige provides budget management for outgoing calls and maintains a blacklist for
unreachable phone numbers in order to save you the expense of unnecessary charges.

Data Compression

Your Prestige incorporates Stac data compression to speed up data transfer. Stac is the de facto
standard of data compression over PPP links.

Networking Compatibility

Your Prestige is compatible with remote access products from other manufacturers such as
Ascend, Cisco, and 3Com. Furthermore, it supports Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT
remote access capability.

Prestige Web Configurator

The Prestige Web Configurator is a JAVA based utility designed to allow users to access the
Prestige’s management settings via a Worldwide Web browser.

Backup and Restore Configuration File via LAN or WAN

The PCT (Prestige Configuration Transfer), a stand-alone Java-based utility, allows backup and
restoration of the configuration file via LAN or WAN.

Upgrade P100IH Firmware via LAN

The PCT allows upgrading of the Prestige 100IH firmware over the local LAN.

Supplementary Voice Features

The Prestige supports the following Supplementary Voice Features on both of its analog, or POTS
(Plain Old Telephone Service), phone ports:

♦ Call Waiting
♦ Three Way Calling (conference)
♦ Call Transfer
♦ Call Forwarding

protocol, which the Internet uses exclusively. It is also compatible with access servers
manufactured by major vendors such as Cisco and Ascend. A typical Internet Access application
is shown below.

Figure 1-1 Internet Access Application

Internet Single User Account

For a SOHO (small office/Home Office) environment, your Prestige offers the Single User
Account (SUA) feature that allows multiple users on the LAN (Local Area Network) to access the
Internet concurrently for the cost of a single user. Single User Account address mapping can also
be used for other LAN to LAN connections.

1.2.2 LAN-to-LAN Connection

You can use the Prestige to connect two geographically dispersed networks over the ISDN line.
A typical LAN-to-LAN application for your Prestige is shown below.

1.2.3 Remote Access Server

Your Prestige allows remote users to dial-in and gain access to your LAN. This feature enables
users that have workstations with remote access capabilities, e.g., Windows 95, to dial in to
access the network resources without physically being in the office. Either PAP (Password
Authentication Protocol) or CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) authentication
can be used to control the access from the remote users. You can also use callback for security
and/or accounting purposes.

This section outlines how to connect your Prestige 100 and 100IH to the LAN and to the ISDN
network.

2-4 Hardware Installation and Setup

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Step 1. Connecting the ISDN Line

Connect the Prestige to the ISDN network using the included ISDN (black) cable. Plug one end
of the cable into the port labeled ISDN BRI and the other to the ISDN wall jack.

Step 2. Connecting a Workstation to the Prestige

UTP Interface

Ethernet 10Base-T networks use Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors that
look like a bigger telephone plug with 8 pins. Connect a workstation to the built-in hub on the
Prestige 100IH to create an Ethernet network. Connect one end of a straight through Ethernet
cable (white tag) to the NIC on the workstation and the other end to one of the built-in 4 Ethernet
ports on the Prestige 100IH (Figure 2-3). Use the crossover cable (red tag) to connect your
Prestige 100 to a computer directly or use straight through Ethernet cable (white tag) to connect to
an external hub (as shown in Figure 2-4) and then connect one end of a straight through Ethernet
cable (white tag) from the hub to the NIC on the workstation.

AUI (P100 only)

The AUI (Attachment Unit Interface), or 10 Base-5, port allows you to connect the Prestige 100
to a thicknet cable. If you have thinnet cable (10 Base-2) you need an external transceiver to
connect the Prestige 100 to the cable. Connect one end of a straight through Ethernet cable to the
NIC on the workstation and the other end to one of the AUI ports.

Connecting a Telephone/Fax to the Prestige

If you wish, you can connect regular telephones, fax machines or other analog devices to the
Prestige. To connect an analog device, plug the end of the telephone cord from the device to
either port PHONE1 or PHONE2 on the rear panel of the Prestige.

Step 3. Connecting the Power Adapter to your Prestige

Connect the power adapter to the port labeled POWER on the rear panel of your Prestige.

Step 4. Connecting the Console Port

For the initial configuration of your Prestige, you need to use terminal emulator software on a
workstation and connect it to the Prestige through the console port. Connect the 9-pin (smaller)
end of the console cable to the console port of the Prestige and the 25-pin (bigger) end to a serial
port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your workstation. You can use an extension RS-232
cable if the enclosed one is too short.

Hardware Installation and Setup 2-5

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

After the initial setup, you can modify the configuration remotely through telnet connections. See
Chapter 9 - Telnet Configuration and Capabilities for detailed instructions on using telnet to
configure your Prestige.

2.3 Additional Installation Requirements

In addition to the contents of your package, there are other hardware and software requirements
you need before you can install and use your Prestige. These requirements include:

1. A computer with Ethernet 10Base-T NIC (Network Interface Card).

2. A computer equipped with communications software configured to the following parameters:

♦ VT100 terminal emulation.
♦ 9600 bps (bits per second).
♦ No parity, 8 Data bits, 1 Stop bit.

After the Prestige is properly set up, you can make future changes to the configuration through
telnet connections.

2.8 ISDN Setup Menus

Menu 2 is for you to enter the information about your ISDN line. Different telephone companies
deploy different types of switches for ISDN service. Depending on the switch for your particular
installation, you will have a different number of telephone numbers. If you are in North America,
you may also have SPIDs (Service Profile Identifiers). The SPID is a number used by a switch for
identification purposes. Make sure that you have correct and complete telephone numbers and
SPIDs. You need to pass the ISDN setup before your system can make an outgoing call or answer
an incoming call. The following table will help you decide the number of telephone numbers and
SPIDs (if any) for your geographic location.

If your switch type is not currently shown, press the space bar to change to the next
switch; repeat until you see the correct switch type. The Prestige will not be able to
place or to receive calls if the wrong switch type is specified. If you are not sure, contact
your telephone company to confirm the exact switch type.

In general, this will be Switch/Switch (the default). If you are only using one B channel
(e.g., your Prestige is sharing the ISDN BRI line with another device), then select
Switch/Unused. If you’re second B channel is a leased line, select Switch/Leased.
Press the [Space bar] to toggle through all the options. These options are

♦ Switch/Switch
♦ Switch/Leased
♦ Leased/Switch

Enter the telephone number(s) assigned to your ISDN line by your telephone company.
Some switch types only have one telephone number. For North America, these phone
numbers should be in a standard seven-digit format (for example, 5551212). Note that
the Prestige only accepts digits; please do not include ‘-’ and spaces in this field. This
field should be no longer than 25 digits.

This tells the Prestige how to route an incoming analog call. Set to Phone1 if you wish
to route the incoming analog call for this telephone number to the PHONE port 1 (a.k.a.,
‘POTS’ port in North America and ‘A/B Adapter’ in Europe). Set to Phone2 if you wish
to route the incoming analog call for this telephone number to PHONE port 2. Set to
DOVBS if you wish to receive incoming Data Over Voice Bearer Service call. Note that
both phone ports will handle incoming analog calls as DOVBS in this case.

Depending on your switch type, you may have zero, one or two SPIDs assigned to your
line. For example, if your switch type is Northern Telecom Custom, you will have to
enter two SPID numbers

2.8.2 European (DSS1) & German (1TR6) ISDN Setup Menus

Switch Type

The only switch types supported in Europe are DSS-1 and 1TR6 (Germany only).

MSN and Subaddress

Depending on your location, you may have Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN) where the
telephone company gives you more than one number for your ISDN line. You can assign each
number to a different port, e.g., the first number to data calls, the second to A/B adapter 1 and so
on. Or (DSS1) the telephone company may give you only one number, but allow you to assign
your own subaddresses to different ports, e.g., subaddress 1 to data calls and 2 to A/B adapter 1.

Incoming Call Routing

The Incoming Phone Number Matching setting governs how incoming calls are routed. If you
select Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN) or Called Party Subaddress, a call (either
ISDN data or analog) is routed to the port that matches the dialed number; if no match is found,
the call is dropped. This option is available as Endgeraete Auswahl Ziffer (EAZ) for the1TR6
switch type.

If you select Don’t Care, then all data calls are routed to the Prestige itself. Analog calls,
however, are routed to either A/B adapter 1 or 2, or simply ignored, depending on the Analog
Call Routing field.

Global Calls

A global call is an incoming analog call where the switch did not send the dialed number. This
happens most often when the call originates from an analog telephone line.

If you specify explicit matching, i.e., Incoming Phone Number Matching is either MSN or
Called Party Subaddress, then global calls are always ignored. If it is Don’t Care and Analog
Call Routing is either A/B Adapter 1 or 2, then the Prestige uses Global Analog Call to decide
how to handle global calls. If you set Global Analog Call to Accept, then global calls are
routed to the port according to the Analog Call Routing setting; if you set Global Analog Call to
Ignore, then the Prestige ignores all global calls. If Analog Call Routing is Ignore to begin
with, then all analog calls, including global calls, are ignored.

PABX Outside Line Prefix

A PABX (Private Automatic Branch eXchange) generally requires you to dial a number (a single
digit in most cases) when you need an outside line. If your Prestige is connected to a PABX,
enter this number in PABX Outside Line Prefix, otherwise, leave it blank.

2-16 Hardware Installation and Setup

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Please note that the PABX prefix is for calls initiated by the Prestige only. If you place a call
from a device on either A/B adapter, you must dial the prefix by hand.

Outgoing Calling Party Number

If this field is not blank, the Prestige will use its value as the calling party number for "ISDN
Data", "A/B Adapter 1" and "A/B Adapter 2" outgoing calls. Otherwise, the individual entries for
"ISDNData", "A/B Adapter 1" and "A/B Adapter 2" will be used as the calling party number. You
only need to fill in this field if your switch or PABX requires a specific calling party number for
outgoing calls, otherwise, leave it blank. If you need to override the individual calling party
number, enter Command Interpreter mode and issue the command:

isdn initstring set AT&ZOx=number

where x is 'I' for ISDN data calls, 'A' for A/B Adapter 1 and 'B' for A/B Adapter 2. For instance,

isdn initstring set AT&ZOI=100&ZOA=101&ZOB=102

sets the calling party number to 100 for ISDN data calls, 101 for A/B adapter 1 and 102 for A/B
adapter 2.

ISDN Call Waiting

This allows you to place a call on hold while you answer another incoming call on the same
telephone (directory) number. By default call waiting is enabled on both telephone ports (except
for France), but can be disabled on either port from Menu 2.1

How to use call waiting

The Call Waiting feature on your ISDN line works in exactly the same way as it does on a
regular analog line. After hearing a call waiting indicator tone, press and immediately release the
flash button on your telephone. This puts your current call on hold and answers the incoming call.

Calling Line Indication

The Calling Line Indication, or Caller ID, governs whether the other party can see your number
when you call. If set to Enable, the Prestige sends the caller ID and the party you call can see
your number; if it is set to Disable, the caller ID is blocked.

This menu allows you to select your Ethernet interface, either 10BaseT or AUI for the Prestige
100 (only 10BaseT for the Prestige 100IH, so this field does not appear) and specify the filter
sets that you wish to apply to the Ethernet traffic. You seldom need to filter Ethernet traffic,
however, the filter sets may be useful to block certain packets, reduce traffic and prevent security
breaches.

Chapter 3

Internet Access

This chapter shows you how to configure the LAN as well as the WAN of your Prestige for
Internet access.

3.1 Factory Ethernet Defaults

The Ethernet parameters of the Prestige are preset in the factory with the following values:

1. IP address of 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits).

2. DHCP server enabled with 32 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33.
These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If the parameters are

satisfactory, you can skip to section 3.3 TCP/IP Ethernet Setup and DHCP to enter the DNS
server address(es) if your ISP gives you explicit DNS server address(es). If you wish to change
the factory defaults or to learn more about TCP/IP, please read on.

3.2 TCP/IP Parameters

3.2.1 IP Address and Subnet Mask

Similar to the houses on a street that share a common street name, the machines on a LAN share
one common network number, also.

Where you obtain your network number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your
network administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in
selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask.

If the ISP did not explicitly give you an IP network number, then most likely you have a single
user account and the ISP will assign you a dynamic IP address when the connection is
established. If this is the case, it is recommended that you select a network number from

192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.0 (ignoring the trailing zero) and you must enable the Single User
Account feature of the Prestige. The Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA) reserved this
block of addresses specifically for private use; please do not use any other number unless you

Internet Access 3-1

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

are told otherwise. Let’s say you select 192.168.1.0 as the network number; which covers 254
individual addresses, from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254 (zero and 255 are reserved). In other
words, the first 3 numbers specify the network number while the last number identifies an
individual workstation on that network.

Once you have decided on the network number, pick an IP address that is easy to remember,
e.g., 192.168.1.1, for your Prestige.

The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your Prestige will
compute the subnet mask automatically based on the IP address that you entered. You don’t
need to change the subnet mask computed by the Prestige unless you are instructed to do
otherwise.

3.2.2 RIP Setup

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information with other
routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets. When set
to both, the Prestige will broadcast its routing table periodically and incorporate the RIP
information that it receives; when set to none, it will not send any RIP packets and will ignore
any RIP packets received.

The Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the
Prestige sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1 is universally supported; but
RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have
a unusual network topology.

Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference being that
RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting. Multicasting can reduce the
load on non-router machines since they generally do not listen to the RIP multicast address and
so will not receive the RIP packets. However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on
your network must use multicasting, also.

By default, RIP direction is set to Both and the Version set to RIP-1.

3.2.3 DHCP Configuration

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (workstations) to
obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige has
built-in DHCP server capability, enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses, an
IP default gateway and DNS servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that
support the DHCP client.

3-2 Internet Access

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

IP Pool Setup

The Prestige is pre-configured with a pool of 32 IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33 to

192.168.1.64 for the client machines. This leaves 31 IP addresses, 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.32
(excluding the Prestige itself which has a default IP of 192.168.1.1) for other server machines,
e.g., server for mail, FTP, telnet, web, etc., that you may have.

DNS Server Address

DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address
and vice versa, e.g., the IP address of www.zyxel.com is 204.217.0.2. The DNS server is
extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you
can access it. The DNS server addresses that you enter in the DHCP setup are passed to the
client machines along with the assigned IP address and subnet mask.

There are two ways that an ISP disseminates the DNS server addresses. The first is for an ISP
to tell a customer the DNS server addresses, usually in the form of an information sheet, when
you sign up. If your ISP does give you the DNS server addresses, enter them in the DNS
Server fields in DHCP Setup.

Some ISP’s choose to pass the DNS servers using the DNS server extensions of PPP IPCP (IP
Control Protocol) after the connection is up. If your ISP did not give you explicit DNS servers,
chances are the DNS servers are conveyed through IPCP negotiation. The Prestige supports the
IPCP DNS server extensions through the DNS proxy feature.

If the Primary and Secondary DNS Server fields in DHCP Setup are not specified, i.e., left as

0.0.0.0, the Prestige tells the DHCP clients that it itself is the DNS server. When a workstation
sends a DNS query to the Prestige, the Prestige forwards the query to the real DNS server
learned through IPCP and relays the response back to the workstation.

Please note that DNS proxy works only when the ISP uses the IPCP DNS server extensions. It
does not mean you can leave the DNS servers out of the DHCP setup under all circumstances.
If your ISP gives you explicit DNS servers, make sure that you enter their IP addresses in the
DHCP Setup menu. This way, the Prestige can pass the DNS servers to the workstations and
the workstations can query the DNS server directly without the Prestige’s intervention.

3.5 Single User Account

Typically, if there are multiple users on the LAN wanting to concurrently access the Internet,
you will have to lease a block of legal, or globally unique, IP addresses from the ISP.

The Single User Account (SUA) feature allows you to have the same benefits as having
multiple legal addresses, but only pay for one IP address, thus saving significantly on the
subscription fees. (Check with your ISP before you enable this feature).

The Single User Account feature may also be used on connections to remote networks other
than the ISP. For example, this feature can be used to simplify the allocation of IP addresses
when connecting branch offices to the corporate network.

3-10 Internet Access

Prestige

The SUA network appears as a
single host to the Internet.

Figure 3-3 Single User Account Topology

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

The IP address for the SUA can be either fixed or dynamically assigned when a call is
connected. In addition, you can designate servers, e.g., a web server and a telnet server, on your
local network and make them accessible to the outside world.

If you do not define any server, SUA offers the additional benefit of firewall protection. If no
server is defined, all incoming inquiries will be filtered out by your Prestige and thus preventing
intruders from probing your network.

Your Prestige accomplishes this address sharing by translating the internal LAN IP addresses to
a single address that is globally unique on the Internet. For more information on IP address
translation, refer to RFC 1631, The IP Network Address Translator (NAT).

3.5.1 Advantages of SUA

In summary:
l SUA is a cost-effective solution for small offices with less than 20 hosts to access the

Internet or other remote TCP/IP networks.

l SUA supports servers to be accessible to the outside world.
l SUA can provide firewall protection if you do not specify a server. All incoming inquiries

will be filtered out by your Prestige.

l UDP and TCP packets can be routed. In addition, partial ICMP, including echo and trace

route, is supported.

3.6 Configuring Backup ISP Accounts

If you have more than one ISP account, you can configure the secondary ISP as a backup. You
can switch to the backup ISP in the event that the primary ISP is out of service. The SUA
feature can be enabled for all these accounts.

3.6.1 Configure a Backup ISP

To configure a backup ISP Account, follow these steps:

Step 1. Configure your primary ISP using Menu 4, as described earlier in this chapter.
Step 2. Enter Menu 11, then select an unused remote node.
Step 3. In Menu 11.1, choose a name for your backup ISP account, then set the Active field

to No, and enter your outgoing login name, password, and phone number(s). The
Remote IP Address field should be set to 1.1.1.1.

Step 4. In Menu 11.3, set the remote node's subnet mask to 0.0.0.0, and set RIP to None.
Step 5. Save the new configuration.

Please note that the remote IP address of 1.1.1.1 is only a placeholder to avoid conflicting with
that of the primary ISP, which is implicitly set at 0.0.0.0. When the backup ISP is activated,
the remote IP address of 1.1.1.1 combined with the subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 creates a default
route that is equivalent to the one derived form the primary ISP.

3.6.2 To Switch ISP

Follow these steps when you need to switch from your primary ISP to a backup ISP:

Step 1. Enter Menu 11 and select your Primary ISP.
Step 2. In Menu 11.1, set the Active field to No.
Step 3. Enter Menu 11 again and select your Backup ISP.
Step 4. In Menu 11.1, set the Active field to Yes.

You will now be able to access the Internet through the backup ISP Remote Node.

Remote Node Configuration

A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both
the remote gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. Note that when you use
Menu 4 to set up Internet access, you are actually configuring one of the remote nodes. Once a
remote node is configured correctly, traffic to the remote network will trigger your Prestige to
make a call automatically, i.e., Dial On Demand.

In this chapter, we will discuss the parameters that are protocol independent. The protocol­dependent configuration (TCP/IP) will be covered in Chapter 5.

This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote node.

4.1.2 Outgoing Authentication Protocol

Generally speaking, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible, for obvious
reasons. However, some vendor’s implementation includes specific authentication protocol in the
user profile. It will disconnect if the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile,
even when the negotiated protocol is stronger than specified. If you encounter the case where the
peer disconnects right after a successful authentication, please make sure that you specify the
correct authentication protocol when connecting to such an implementation.

Remote Node Configuration 4-5

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

4.1.3 PPP Multilink

The Prestige uses the PPP Multilink Protocol (PPP/MP) to bundle multiple links in a single
connection to boost the effective throughput between two nodes.

Due to the fragmentation/reconstruction overhead associated with MP, you may not get a linear
increase in throughput when a link is added.

The number of links in an MP bundle can be statically configured, or dynamically determined at
runtime, as explained in the following section.

4.1.4 Bandwidth on Demand

The Bandwidth on Demand (BOD) feature adds or subtracts links dynamically according to
traffic demand. After the initial call, the Prestige uses BAP (Bandwidth Allocation Protocol) to
ask the peer for additional telephone number if BACP (Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol) is
negotiated. Otherwise, the Prestige uses the statically configured (primary and secondary)
telephone numbers of the remote node.

The configuration of bandwidth on demand focuses on the Base Transmission Rate (BTR) and the
Maximum Transmission Rate (MTR). The relationship between BTR and MTR are shown below:

Table 4-2 BTR v MTR for BOD

BTR & MTR Setting

Persist value. Similarly, the second channel will be dropped if the traffic level falls below the low
Target Utility number for longer than the Subtract Persist value.

The Target Utility specifies the line utilization range at which you want the Prestige to add or
subtract bandwidth. The range is 30 to 64 Kbps (kilobits per second). The parameters are
separated by a ‘-’. For example, ‘30-60’ means the add threshold is 30 Kbps and subtract
threshold is 60 Kbps. The Prestige performs bandwidth on demand only if it initiates the call.

4-6 Remote Node Configuration

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Addition and subtraction are based on the value set in the BOD Calculation field. If this field is
set to Transmit or Receive, then traffic in either direction will be included to determine if a
link should be added or dropped. Transmit will only use outgoing traffic to make this
determination and Receive will only use incoming traffic to make this determination.

If, after making the call to bring up a second channel, the second channel does not succeed in
joining the Multilink Protocol bundle (because the remote device does not recognize the second
call as coming from the same device), the Prestige will hang up the second call and continue with
the first channel alone.

The BOD configuration is through Menu 11.2 - Remote Node PPP Options.

Remote Node TCP/IP Configuration

This chapter shows you how to configure the TCP/IP parameters of a remote node. A typical
LAN-to-LAN application is to use your Prestige to connect a branch office to the headquarters, as
depicted in the following diagram.

5.1 LAN-to-LAN Application

Figure 5-1 TCP/IP LAN-to-LAN Application

For the branch office, you need to configure a remote node in order to dial out to the
headquarters. Additionally, you may also need to define static routes if some services reside
beyond the immediate remote LAN.

5.1.2 Static Route Setup

Static routes tell the Prestige routing information that it cannot learn automatically through other
means. This can arise in cases where RIP is disabled on the LAN or a remote network is beyond
the one that is directly connected to a remote node.

Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly connected, and the
Prestige has no knowledge of the networks beyond. For instance, the Prestige knows about
network N2 in the following diagram through remote node Router 1. However, the Prestige is
unable to route a packet to network N3 because it doesn’t know that there is a route through
remote node Router 2. The static routes are for you to tell the Prestige about the networks beyond
the remote nodes.

Dial-in Server Configuration

You can configure your Prestige to receive calls from remote dial-in users, e.g.,
telecommuters, as well as remote nodes. There are several differences between dial-in users
and remote nodes, as summarized in the table below.

Table 6-1 Remote Dial-in Users/Remote Nodes Comparison Chart

Remote Dial-in Users Remote Nodes

Your Prestige will only answer calls from remote
dial-in users; it will not make calls to them.

All remote dial-in users share one common set of
parameters, as defined in the Default Dial In Setup
(Menu 13).

This chapter discusses how to setup default dial-in parameters for both remote node and
remote dial-in users. The following sections give two examples of how your Prestige can be
configured as a dial-in server.

Your Prestige can make calls to and receive calls
from the remote node.

Each remote node can have its own set of
parameters such as Bandwidth On Demand.

6.1 Remote Access Server

Telecommuting enables people to work at remote sites and yet still have access to the
resources in the business office. Typically, a telecommuter will use a client workstation with
TCP/IP and dial-out capabilities, e.g., a Windows PC or a Macintosh. For telecommuters to
call in to your Prestige, you need to configure a dial-in user profile for each telecommuter.
Additionally, you need to configure the Default Dial-In Setup to set the operational
parameters for all dial-in users.

Your Prestige can also be used as a dial-in server for LAN-to-LAN application to provide
access for the workstations on a remote network. For your Prestige to be set up as a LAN-to­LAN server, you need to configure the Default Dial-In Setup to set the operational parameters
for incoming calls. Additionally, you must create a remote node for the router on the remote
network (see Chapter 4 - Remote Node Configuration).

Field Description Option

Rem CLID If you enable CLID Authen field in Menu 13, then you need to specify the

telephone number from which this user calls. Your Prestige will check the
CLID in the incoming call against the CLIDs in the database. If they do not
match and CLID Authen is Required, your Prestige will not answer the call.

Enter the idle time (in seconds). This time-out determines how long the dial-in
user can be idle before your Prestige disconnects the call when the Prestige
is calling back.

Idle time is defined as the period of time where there is no data traffic
between the dial-in user and your Prestige. The default is 300 seconds (5
minutes).

Default=300

seconds

6.4.1 CLID Authentication

CLID (Calling Line IDentification) authentication affords you the security of limiting a user
to only initiate connections from a fixed location. The Prestige uses the caller ID sent by the
switch to match against the CLIDs in the database. Please note that for CLID authentication
to work on the Prestige, your telephone company must support caller ID.

6.4.2 Callback

Callback serves two purposes. One is security. When set to callback to a fixed number, an
intruder will not gain access to your network even if he/she stole the password from your user,
because the Prestige always calls back to the pre-configured number.

The other is ease of accounting. For instance, your company pays for the connection charges
for telecommuting employees and you use your Prestige as the dial in server. When you turn
on the callback option for the dial-in users, all usage is charged to the company instead of the
employees, and your accounting department can avoid the hassles of accountability and
reimbursement.

6-10 Dial-In Server Configuration

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

6.5 Multiple Servers behind SUA

If you wish, you can make inside servers for different services, e.g., web or FTP, visible to the
outside users, even though SUA makes your whole inside network appear as a single machine
to the outside world. A service is identified by the port number, e.g., web service is on port
80 and FTP on port 21.

As an example, if you have a web server at 192.168.1.2 and an FTP server 192.168.1.3, then
you need to specify for port 80 (web) the server at IP address 192.168.1.2 and for port 21
(FTP) another at IP address 192.168.1.3.

Please note that a server can support more than one service, e.g., a server can provide both
FTP and DNS service, while another provides only web service. Also, since you need to
specify the IP address of a server in the Prestige, a server must have a fixed IP address and not
be a DHCP client whose IP address potentially changes each time it is powered on.

In addition to the servers for specific services, SUA supports a default server. A service
request that does not have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default
server. If the default server is not defined, the service request is simply discarded.

To make a server visible to the outside world, specify the port number of the service and the
inside IP address of the server in Menu 15, Multiple Server Configuration.

6.5.1 Configuring a Server behind SUA

Follow the steps below to configure a server behind SUA:

1. Enter 15 in the main menu to go to menu 15, Multiple Server Configuration.

2. Enter the service port number in the Port # field and the inside IP address of the server in the

IP Address field.

7.1 Getting Started

7.1.1 Things you need to know before you start using Supplemental
Services.

♦ In North America, Additional Call Offering (ACO) is required on your ISDN line in order to

use the Call Waiting feature. Flexible Calling is required on your ISDN line in order to use
the Three-Way-Calling or Call Transfer features. You need to check with your telephone
company to confirm if these services are available to you and if so, are there any additional
charges for them.

♦ In some cases, your telephone company may only enable these features on your first directory

(phone) number. In this case, you may want to request that the features be enabled on your
second directory number as well.

7.2 Setting Up Supplemental Phone Service

All Supplemental Phone Services are enabled by default except for Call Waiting, which is
disabled by default but can be enabled in Menu 2.1- ISDN Advanced Setup. The Calling Line
Indication, or Caller ID, also in this menu decides whether the other party can see your number
when you call. If set to Enable (default), the Prestige sends the caller ID and the party you call
can see your number, otherwise if set to Disable, the caller ID is blocked.

…

“US” refers to a broad range of switch types supported in the USA.

7.3 The Flash Key

Flashing means to press the hook for a short period of time (a few hundred milliseconds) before
releasing it. On newer telephones, there should be a “flash” key (button) that generates the signal
electronically. If the flash key is not available, you can tap (press and immediately release) the
hook by hand to achieve the same effect. However, using the flash key is preferred since the
timing is much more precise. With manually tapping, if the duration is too long, it may be
interpreted as hanging up by the Prestige.

7.4 Call Waiting

ISDN Call Waiting allows you to place a call on hold while you answer another incoming call on
the same telephone (directory) number.

By default call waiting is enabled on both telephone ports (except France where the default is
disabled), but can be toggled on either port from Menu 2.1.

7.4.1 How to use call waiting

The Call Waiting feature on your ISDN line works in exactly the same way as it does on a regular
analog line (which almost everyone is familiar with). To put the current call on hold and answer
the incoming call, press the flash key after hearing a call waiting indicator tone.

Dropping current call to switch to incoming/holding call.

After hearing a Call Waiting indicator tone, simply hang up the telephone and wait for the
telephone to ring before answering the incoming/holding call.

Notes: An incoming caller receives a busy signal if
♦ You have two calls active (one active and one on hold, or both active using Three Way

Calling) already.

♦ You are dialing a number on the B-Channel the incoming caller is attempting to reach, but

have not yet established a connection.

7.5 Three Way Calling

Three Way Calling allows you to add a third party to an existing call. This service must be
subscribed from your telephone company.

Advanced Phone Services 7-3

Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

7.5.1 How To Use Three Way Calling

If you wish to call someone and conference him/her in with an existing call:

♦ Press the flash key to put the existing call on hold and receive a dial tone.
♦ Dial the third party’s telephone number.
♦ When you are ready to conference the calls together, press the flash key again to establish a

Three Way Conference Call.

Note: If you wish to cancel your attempt to establish the conference call because the third party’s
line in busy or if they don't answer, simply hang-up the telephone and pick it back up after it starts
ringing to return to the first caller.

To drop the last call added to the three-way-call:
Simply press the flash key. The last call that was added to the conference is dropped.
To drop yourself from the conference call:
If you hang up your telephone during a three-way-call and the two other callers remain on the

line, the ISDN network will do an implicit transfer to directly connect the two remaining callers
together.

7.6 Call Transfer

Call Transfer allows you to transfer an active call to a third party. This service must be subscribed
from your telephone company.

7.6.1 How To Use Call Transfer

Transferring an active call to a third party:

♦ Once you have an active call (Caller A), press the flash key to put Caller A on hold and

receive a dial tone.

♦ Dial the third party’s telephone number (Caller B).
♦ When you are ready to conference the two calls together, press the flash key to establish a

Three-Way-Conference call.

♦ Hang up the telephone. The ISDN network does an implicit transfer to directly connect Caller

A with Caller B.

7.6.2 To Do A Blind Transfer:

♦ Once you have an active call (Caller A), press the flash key to put the existing call on hold

and receive a dial tone.

♦ Dial the third party’s telephone number (Caller B).
♦ Before Caller B picks up the call, you can transfer the call by pressing the flash key. The call

is automatically transferred.

7.7 Call Forwarding

Call forwarding means the switch will ring another number at a place where you will be when
someone dials your directory number.

There are two methods to activate call forwarding. The first is exactly the same as on an analog
line, i.e., you pick up the handset and dial the access code assigned by your telephone company
and the number that you want the calls forwarded. Check with your telephone company for this
access code.

The second is with the “phone flash” commands where you pick up the handset and press the
flash key before dialing the following:

Table 7-3 Phone Flash Commands

Command

Meaning

*20*forward-number#
*21*forward-number#
*22*forward-number#
#20#
#21#
#22#

Activate CFB (Call Forwarding Busy)
Activate CFU (Call Forwarding Unconditional)
Activate CFNR (Call Forwarding No Reply)
Deactivate CFB
Deactivate CFU
Deactivate CFNR

Either method should work fine, and you can use whichever one you are most comfortable with.

7.8 Reminder Ring

The Prestige sends a single short ring to your telephone every time a call has been forwarded (US
switches only).

Filter Configuration

8.1 About Filtering

Your Prestige uses filters to decide whether or not to allow passage of a data packet and/or to
make a call. There are two types of filters: data filters and call filters.

Data filters screen the data to determine if the packet should be allowed to pass. Data filters are
further divided into incoming and outgoing filters, depending on the direction of the packet
relative to a port. Call filters are used to determine if a packet should be allowed to trigger a call.

Outgoing packets must pass through the data filters before they encounter the call filters. Call
filters are divided into two groups, the built-in call filters and user-defined call filters. Your
Prestige has built-in call filters that prevent administrative, e.g., RIP packets from triggering calls.
These filters are always enabled and not accessible to you. Your Prestige applies the built-in
filters first and then the user-defined call filters, if applicable, as illustrated in the figure below,
Figure 8-1 Outgoing Packet Filtering Process.

Figure 8-1 Outgoing Packet Filtering Process

For incoming packets, your Prestige applies data filters only. Packets are processed depending
upon whether a match is found. The following sections describe how to configure filter sets.

The Filter Structure of the Prestige

A filter set consists of one or more filter rules. Usually, you would group related rules, e.g., all
the rules for NetBIOS, into a single set and give it a descriptive name. The Prestige allows you to
configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72 filter rules in the
system.

You can apply up to four filter sets to a particular port to block multiple types of packets. With
each filter set having up to six rules, you can have a maximum of 24 rules active for a single port.
