Chaper 1: Overview This document is provided for AppEx customers (for system and network administrators with basic or advanced knowledge of networking). After reading this manual the administrators will be able to complete the following tasks independently: Installing and using LotWan Managing LotWan 1.1 Introduction LotWan is based on Zeta-TCP, a proprietary technology that speeds up all TCP-based network applications including data sharing, receiving and transmitting emails, office automation, web applications, database systems, video streaming, disaster recovery, online gaming, web browsing,, etc. 1.2 Special Notes When LotWan is used in conjunction with VPN equipment: Under normal circumstances, LotWan should be deployed before the data enters into any VPN tunnel. When LotWan is deployed after the data enters into the SSL VPN tunnel (using TCP l to transmit data), TCP acceleration would still function correctly. For VPNs using IPSec, LotWan must be deployed before the data enters into the VPN tunnel, otherwise the acceleration will be neutralized. Chaper 2: Installation of LotWan To install LotWan, you will need the following: LotWan appliance Standard 1U or 2U racks L shape mounting brackets Screw sets AC power cords 2.1 System Indicators When the unit is turned on initially, the hard drive indicator is red. Once it has booted up, the indicator is turned off. The bypass light on the fiber NIC is not lit normally (no bypass mode); and it is lit when in bypass mode. The NIC indicator is orange normally, and blinks when data is being transmitted. 2.2 System Installation 1. LotWan can be mounted on a standard 19 inch rack. 2. Login into LotWan using the Web GUI via the default management interface as described in Chapter 3. Configure the physical network port as WAN/LAN interface according to customer configuration When configuring WAN/LAN interfaces, be sure to use the network interface with embedded bypass feature, and enable the bypass mode in the Administration System Setup tab 3. Login into LotWan using the Web GUI via the default management interface 4. Use screw set to lock the L-shape rack mount 5. Install LotWan onto the rack 6. Plug in supplied power cords and turn on the power switch The power connectors are at the back of LotWan. The input voltage range is 100V 240V 1 LotWan Appliance User Guide 2014 AppEx Networks Corporation. All rights reserved.

Aliases: Alias of the profile Hash Fields: Including local IP address, remote IP address, local port, remote port; protocol. Note that multiple hash fields can be added with the fields of the type are or-ed ; whereas fields of different types act are logically and together. Please note that the Add button on the right hand side must be clicked to save the hash field entered. When an IP address (local or remote IP) is used as a hash field, the profile can be defined using the combination of IP address and mask, e.g. 172.16.0.0/24 which means the filtering option is 172.16.0.x network segment. If the filtering option is a single IP address then the mask must be configured as 32, e.g. 172.16.0.100/32. If the mask field is left empty, 32 is assumed. 21 LotWan Appliance User Guide 2014 AppEx Networks Corporation. All rights reserved.

The packets processed by the acceleration engines can be captured for further analysis. It is essential to determine the root cause, especially when there is a problem in the network. Steps: Enable packet capture by selecting PacketCapture. Select output to disk or network interface; IP Filter is used to capture only those date packets with specific source IP or destination IP address. All packets processed by the acceleration engines will be captured when the IP Filter is set as 0.0.0.0. If output destination is set to network interface, the source of the data packets can be selected Only those data packets from the WAN interface of the acceleration engine will be captured; or all data packets from WAN and LAN will be captured Output interface of the data packets can also be selected. Usually, the management interface or an idle interface in the system is selected. The PC that is connected to the output interface must run packet capture software (e.g. Wireshark). Never connect the output interface to the intranet switch which may overload the network or cause network congestion. Once the capture is finished, de-select Packet Capture function, submit and exit. The capture packets will display on the interface then you can download them.
