9 Important Information 1 1 Important Information Please carefully read the following information about System Software to avoid problems when updating or using the software. 1.1 Validity System Software is only to be used on the following devices and cannot be used on others: R1200 R1200w R1200wu R3000 R3000w R3400 R3800 R4100 R Incompatibility Configurations created or saved under System Software are incompatible with the system software versions and Nevertheless, please pay attention to the following notes on updates and the downgrade options. System Software Release Notes 9

10 1 Important Information Preparation and update If necessary, proceed as follows to prepare for and perform an update to System Software 7.5.1: 1. Save the current boot configuration. Use one of the following methods: a) Enter cmd=save path=boot.alt in the SNMP shell. This saves the current boot configuration to the flash ROM of your gateway using the name "boot.alt". b) Start a TFTP server on your computer in your LAN and export the current boot configuration via the CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT menu of the Setup Tool. Choose the following: OPERATION = put (FLASH -> TFTP) TFTP SERVER IP ADDRESS = <IP address of the TFTP server in the LAN> TFTP FILE NAME = boot.alt NAME IN FLASH = boot 2. Carry out the update to System Software as usual and restart the gateway. The gateway starts with the new software, using the existing boot configuration Downgrade If you want to perform a downgrade, proceed as follows: 1. Replace the current boot configuration with the previously saved version. Use one of the following methods: a) Enter cmd=move path=boot.alt pathnew=boot in the SNMP shell. This replaces the current boot configuration with the previously saved version. The configuration named "boot.alt" is erased from the flash ROM as part of this process (if you want to keep it in the flash, enter cmd=copy instead of cmd=move). b) Start a TFTP server on your computer in your LAN and import the previously saved boot configuration via the CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT menu of the Setup tool. Choose the following: 10 Release Notes System Software

11 Important Information 1 OPERATION = get (TFTP -> FLASH) TFTP SERVER IP ADDRESS = <IP address of the TFTP server in the LAN> TFTP FILE NAME = boot.alt NAME IN FLASH = boot 2. Proceed with the downgrade to the desired software version. 3. Reboot the gateway. The previously saved boot configuration along with the older version of the system software are used on startup. 1.3 Updating to VoIP If you intend to use the new Voice over IP (VoIP) feature of System Software 7.5.1, you may have to carry out an update of the so called Ident Version of your gateway. The necessity to do so depends on the type of your gateway, its serial number and the Ident Version currently stored on your gateway. This update is required for the DSP module to be recognized correctly. The following gateways may be in need to be updated if numbers four and five of the serial number are lower than 17: R1200 R1200w R3000 R3000w R4100. An update is necessary for these gateways if their Ident Version is lower than 1.8. These gateways are: R1200 R1200w R3000 System Software Release Notes 11

12 1 Important Information R3000w. An update is also necessary for R4100 gateways with an Ident Version lower than In order to check if your gateways requires an update, first check the serial number, then the current Ident Version. If the criteria for an update are met, carry out the update. Proceed as follows: 1. Check the serial numbe of your gateway, you will find it printed on the label on the bottom of your gateway, e.g., Serial Number R1D Check digit four and five of the serial number. If this number is smaller than 17 (as in the example above), continue by checking the Ident Version of your gateway. If digits four and five constitute a number equal to or larger than 17, no update is required. 3. In order to check the Ident Version, open a serial connection to your gateway and login. Call show rev from the SNMP shell. You will see the Ident Version printed to the console, e.g. V.1.7. Since 1.7 is smaller than any of the values mentioned above (1.71 or 1.8), our example meets the criteria for an update independently of the gateway type. The Ident Version update is carried out via the BOOTmonitor using a BLUP (Bintec Large Update). Attention! Carrying out the Ident Version update involves the risk that the gateway may become unbootable if updating one of the components fails, e.g. through a failing power supply. In this case you will have to send it in to your retailer. Proceed as follows to update the Ident Version: 1. Configure a PC in your local network to act as TFTP server. For a Windows PC you can use the DIME Tools from the Companion CD. 2. Copy the BLUP file (e.g. bl_r1200_r3000_r4100_ident_update.rny from our web server) in to the root directory of the TFTP server in your local network. 12 Release Notes System Software

13 Important Information 1 3. Reboot the gateway by calling cmd=reboot from the SNMP shell. The gateway reboots, and after a number of messages you will see the following prompt: Press <sp> for boot monitor or any other key to boot system 4.

Once installed, these devices can function as VoIP/VoVPN gateways. R1200 / R1200w(u) / R3000 / R3000w: Vinetic DSP module with up to four concurrent high-compression voice channels for VoIP applications. R4100: Vinetic DSP module with up to eight concurrent high-compression voice channels for VoIP applications (only S0, not S2M). AudioCodes DSP module with up to 30 concurrent high-compression voice channels for VoIP applications. Coding and encoding do not place any demand on the system resources of the core hardware. The DSP module supports voice codecs G.711, G.723.1, G.726, G.729a/b. The DSP module converts voice data into speech during the switchover from IP to telephone. In this process, voice data compression causes a reduction in bandwidth. Conversely, this module generates standard phone sounds (dial tone, busy signal etc.) for the IP side. The DSP module is installed as follows: 18 Release Notes System Software

23 New features Variable switching of ISDN S0 interfaces System Software supports switching from external to internal ISDN S0 interfaces. The devices R1200, R1200w, R1200wu, R3000, R3000w, R4100 and R4300 have either two or four ISDN ports. These can all be configured as internal or external connections. External ISDN ports are used to connect to the ISDN network of the network operator. Internal ISDN ports are used to connect various ISDN peripherals (phones, PCs, etc.). When shipped, these ISDN connections are configured as external connections. The two ISDN S0 interfaces ISDN-0 and ISDN-1 for the devices R1200, R1200w, R1200wu, R3000, R3000w and R4300 can be switched from external (factory setting) to internal via a plug-in jumper field located on the device mainboard. In the case of R4100, this can also be done for the first two ISDN S0 ports: ISDN-0 and ISDN-1. For the remaining interfaces (ISDN-2 and ISDN- 3), this is done using the plug-in jumpers located on the side of the ISDN-L module. When using an ISDN S0 interface as an internal port, you can select whether the interface should be powered by your device if the terminal being connected does not have its own power supply. This can be done for each interface individually. The plug-in jumpers need to be repositioned accordingly. You can also activate or deactivate the 100-ohm termination resistors for each interface using a different set of plug-in jumpers. Termination resistors are also required: if you are connecting an external interface directly to an external NTBA. when using a point-to-point connection. if the bus starts immediately where your device is connected. R4100 provides you with an option for interconnecting the ISDN-2 and ISDN-3 interfaces. This can provide power to a terminal over an ISDN interface in internal mode if your device is switched off or does not have its own power supply. This also represents a method for switching an external S0 to internal System Software Release Notes 23

24 2 New features mode. In this case, an idle relay loops through the external S0 to the internal S0 and, in the process, provides back-up power to the internal S0 bus/phone. To switch from external to internal, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the center screw on the back panel of the device and lift the cover up and off. 2. The plug-in jumpers for the ISDN-0 and ISDN-1 interfaces are located on all devices on the mainboard behind the ISDN terminal block. 24 Release Notes System Software

25 New features 2 3. Plug in jumpers for interfaces ISDN-0 and ISDN-1 as shown in the illustration: Use Interface Jumper slot Pos. Pos. Switch internal/external ISDN-0 J0M intern al extern al Switch internal/external ISDN-1 J1M intern al extern al System Software Release Notes 25

If insufficient bandwidth is available in the upload direction, there may be pronounced delays in the voice transmission if other data packets are being routed at the same time. The Dynamic Bandwidth Control function in VoIP implementation solves this problem. To ensure that the 'line' for VoIP packets is not blocked for too long, the size of the other data packets is reduced for the duration of the call as required. You are also required to enter the current bandwidth for the upload direction when using an external modem and Dynamic Bandwidth Control.

51 New features Enhanced Interface Monitoring System Software offers new and improved options for monitoring interfaces and analysing and logging sent and received data. One way to do this is by entering 'trace' in the command line of your gateway or by using a similar program on a PC (bricktrace for UNIX or DimeTools for Windows). Using either remote programs on the PC or the trace command, you can log activity on Ethernet, ISDN, ATM and WLAN interfaces and record unencrypted data traffic in an IPSec tunnel if this was created as a virtual interface. bricktrace, DimeTools The following additions have been made to the remote programs on the PC: For security reasons, interface logging is only possible with authentication (admin password for the router). You can write data in 'libpcap' format for subsequent analysis using default programs such as tcpdump, Ethereal (now: wireshark) or ntop. New built-in, easy-to-use IP session filters (options -I and -B). Your trace connection (PC <-> gateway) is now filtered if the computer is performing interface logging on the interface to which it is connected. bricktrace bricktrace allows you to write data to a libpcap file and, where required, start Ethereal to view the data (live trace). You can also save the data for subsequent analysis. To view more information on the options available with bricktrace, enter the command -? (help) or --help (advanced help). Examples: bricktrace --ethereal router-ip 1000 starts the trace on LAN interface 1000 while at the same time automatically opening Ethereal via a pipe. export TRACE_EXEC="wireshark -Sk -i" starts the wireshark program instead of Ethereal when --ethereal is entered. bricktrace --pcap-file router 1000 saves all data packets to a libpcap file. This file is then available for subsequent analysis. System Software Release Notes 51

52 2 New features The program lists the available physical interfaces on the gateway without the interface number. -V 1..3 specifies the version of the trace interface log; for older devices: 1 or 2; 3 is the default value. --pwd=password Sets the gateway password (version 3). DimeTools DimeTools allows you to save data to a libpcap file and then open it using Ethereal. A live trace via a pipe is not possible in Windows. Note Please note that a live trace via a pipe is only possible in Ethereal versions and above due to an error in the program. trace The following features have been added to the trace command: New built-in, easy-to-use IP session filters (options -I and -B). You can enter the interface number directly, e.g., trace for the first LAN interface or trace for the first IPSec interface. IP session filter The options -I and -B (negates -I! and -B!) make it possible to filter IP packets by ip-source, ip-destination, protocol, src-port and dst-port. When specifying multiple filters with no options, these are linked using the logical AND operation; the option -o links them with the OR operation. 52 Release Notes System Software

Entries in the SNMP shell of your device can now be automatically completed using the tab key, which means you can enter the first characters of a command and then press the tab key to complete the command. This option is available when making the following entries: external commands (ping, ifconfig etc.) local commands (echo, sleep, halt etc.) System Software Release Notes 53

54 2 New features SNMP commands (tables, values) MIB groups. There is also a complete command (e. g. where it is not possible to get the desired results by pressing the tab key due to the terminal settings), which can be used as follows: complete <required character string> Example: All commands that begin with l should be listed. r1200:> complete l l loop linkd l2tpd l2tp l2tpglobals l2tpsessiontable l2tptunnelprofiletable l2tptunneltable localtcpallowtable localudpallowtable r1200:> 2.8 New "grep" Command System Software supports a basic grep command. This command allows you to search for terms in the SNMP shell on your device. Lines matching the search criteria are displayed and all others are ignored. This makes it possible to interlink the output of all commands on the shell. The following syntax is employed: r1200:> grep -h Usage: grep [hvdie:] <pattern> -e <pattern> specify multiple <pattern> -i ignore case -v invert match -d debug -h display help and exit Example: You can locate the process ID for the DynDNS daemon by entering: r1200:> ps -ef grep ddnsd Example: 54 Release Notes System Software

The characters *? [ ] can be used for this. Example: r1200:> echo test grep *t[ae]s? * returns a match containing a character string of any length.? returns a match containing any single character. [ ] corresponds to the OR operator, e.g., one of the specified characters must match. 2.9 Wireless LAN Roaming System Software now includes a feature for WLAN roaming. This allows free movement of clients within a multi-cell WLAN. Also, when roaming between radio cells, the client can log off from one access point and log onto another without the user noticing Funkwerk Discovery Server System Software now features the Funkwerk Discovery Server.

System Software Release Notes 73

74 2 New features FORWARDING simply transfers data directly to the recipient(s), whereas IGMP and PIM only send data to certain hosts thereby reducing unnecessary data communication. With multicast, data is transferred to a 'virtual address,' i.e., to the so-called multicast group. For IPv4 in the class D network, IP addresses to are reserved for multicast groups. Interested clients can enrol at as many multicast groups as they want. Hosts, in this context also called sources, that emit Internet radio broadcasts for example, send their packets to the respective multicast group. By means of the enrolments to the multicast groups, the packets will be forwarded to the receivers. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) manages the multicast groups in local area networks and controls the exchange of member data for these groups via so-called queries and reports. The latest version of IGMP is v3; it is downwards compatible with versions 1 and 2. By contrast, PIM (Protocol Independent Multicast) is a multicast routing protocol. In PIM, information distribution is controlled from a central point, the so-called 'rendezvous point'. The data packets are initially forwarded to this point and made available to the recipient at the request of other routers. There are two modes for multicast routing protocols: sparse and dense. In dense mode, all packets are forwarded and only packets to groups that were explicitly unsubscribed are dropped. In sparse mode, groups are only sent packets that they have subscribed to. In System Software 7.5.1, MSDP (Multicast Source Discovery Protocol) is used to interlink PIM domains and thus perform inter-domain routing. 74 Release Notes System Software

System Software Release Notes 105

106 3 Changes The new format is a CSV format, which can be read and modified easily. Furthermore, these files can be viewed in a clear format using Microsoft Excel, for example. Backup files of the configuration can be saved by the administrator in encrypted form. When sending configurations via (for support purposes, for example) confidential configuration data can be completely secured where necessary. You can use the CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT menu to transmit and receive files as usual via a TFTP host with the commands put and get. When using the put command to transmit a configuration file to a TFTP host, you can decide whether to save the configuration file in encrypted/unencrypted form or using the old format. Since importing a configuration file of the old format onto the device may not work in case of a different software version, the old format is no longer recommended. When using the get command, the system recognises the respective file format. If you are importing an encrypted format, you will be required to enter your password. 106 Release Notes System Software
