Overview of Major Capabilities
CHAPTER 3
Expert Mode
Using the Expert Mode Web-based user interface for the Netopia Caymanseries Gateway you can configure, troubleshoot, and monitor the status of
your Gateway.
Overview of Major Capabilities
• “Wide Area Network Termination” on page 34
The Gateway combines a traditional modem with an Internet router. It translates
protocols used on the Internet to protocols used by home personal computers
and eliminates the need for special desktop software (i.e. PPPoE).
• “Simplified Local Area Network Setup” on page 36
Built-in DHCP and DNS proxy features minimize or eliminate the need to program any network configuration into your home personal computer.
33
• “Management” on page 37
A Web server built into the Cayman Operating System makes setup and maintenance easy using standard browsers. Diagnostic tools facilitate troubleshooting.
• “Security” on page 38
Network Address Translation (NAT), password protection, and other built-in
security features prevent unauthorized remote access to your network. Pinholes, default server, and other features permit access to computers on your
home network that you can specify.
Wide Area Network Termination
PPPoE/PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet/ATM). The PPPoE
specification, incorporating the PPP and Ethernet standards, allows your
computer(s) to connect to your Service Provider’s network through your
Ethernet WAN connection. The Cayman-series Gateway supports PPPoE/
PPPoA, eliminating the need to install PPPoE client software on any LAN
computers.
Service Providers may require the use of PPP authentication protocols such
as Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) or Password
Authentication Protocol (PAP). CHAP and PAP use a username and password
pair to authenticate users with a PPP server.
A CHAP authentication process works as follows:
1.
2.
3.
The password is used to scramble a challenge string.
The password is a shared secret, known by both peers.
The unit sends the scrambled challenge back to the peer.
PAP, a less robust method of authentication, sends a username and password to a PPP server to be authenticated. PAP’s username and password
pair are not encrypted, and are therefore sent “unscrambled”.
34
Overview of Major Capabilities
Instant-On PPP. You can configure your Gateway for one of two types of
Internet connections:
• Always On
• Instant On
These selections provide either an uninterrupted Internet connection or an
as-needed connection.
While an Always On connection is convenient, it does leave your network
permanently connected to the Internet, and therefore potentially vulnerable
to attacks.
Cayman's Instant On technology furnishes almost all the benefits of an
Always-On connection while providing two additional security benefits:
• Your network cannot be attacked when it is not connected.
• Your network may change address with each connection making it more
difficult to attack.
When you configure Instant On access, you can also configure an idle timeout value. Your Gateway monitors traffic over the Internet link and when
there has been no traffic for the configured number of seconds, it disconnects the link.
When new traffic that is destined for the Internet arrives at the Gateway, the
Gateway will instantly re-establish the link.
Your service provider may be using a system that assigns the Internet
address of your Gateway out of a pool of many possible Internet addresses.
The address assigned varies with each connection attempt, which makes
your network a moving target for any attacker.
35
Simplified Local Area Network Setup
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server. DHCP Server
functionality enables the Gateway to assign to your LAN computer(s) a “private” IP address and other parameters that allow network communication.
The default DHCP Server configuration of the Gateway supports up to 253
LAN IP addresses.
This feature simplifies network administration because the Gateway maintains a list of IP address assignments. Additional computers can be added
to your LAN without the hassle of configuring an IP address.
DNS Proxy. Domain Name System (DNS) provides end users with the ability to look for devices or web sites by typing their names, rather than IP
addresses. For web surfers, this technology allows you to enter the URL
(Universal Resource Locator) as text to surf to a desired website.
The Cayman DNS Proxy feature allows the LAN-side IP address of the Gateway to be used for proxying DNS requests from hosts on the LAN to the
DNS Servers configured in the gateway. This is accomplished by having the
Gateway's LAN address handed out as the “DNS Server” to the DHCP clients on the LAN.
36
Overview of Major Capabilities
☛
NOTE:
The Cayman DNS Proxy only proxies UDP DNS queries, not TCP
DNS queries.
Management
Embedded Web Server. There is no specialized software to install on your
PC to configure, manage, or maintain your Cayman Gateway. Web pages
embedded in the operating system provide access to the following Gateway
operations:
• Setup
• System and security logs
• Diagnostics functions
Once you have removed your Cayman Gateway from its packing container
and powered the unit up, use any LAN attached PC or workstation running a
common web browser application to configure and monitor the Gateway.
Diagnostics. In addition to the Gateway’s visual LED indicator lights, you
can run an extensive set of diagnostic tools from your Web browser.
Two of the facilities are:
• Automated “Multi-Layer” Test
The Run Diagnostics link initiates a sequence of tests. They examine the
entire functionality of the Gateway, from the physical connections to the
data traffic.
• Network Test Tools
Three test tools to determine network reachability are available:
37
Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by
sending an ICMP echo request and waiting for a reply.
NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.
TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number
of hops and the router addresses of these hops.
The system log also provides diagnostic information.
☛
NOTE:
Your Service Provider may request information that you acquire
from these various diagnostic tools. Individual tests may be performed at the command line. (See “Command Line Interface” on
page 151.).
Security
Remote Access Control. You can determine whether or not an administrator or other authorized person has access to configuring your Gateway. This
access can be turned on or off in the Web interface.
Password Protection. Access to your Cayman device can be controlled
through two access control accounts, Admin or User.
• The Admin, or administrative user, performs all configuration, management or maintenance operations on the Gateway.
• The User account provides monitor capability only.
A user may NOT change the configuration, perform upgrades or invoke
maintenance functions.
Network Address Translation (NAT). The Cayman Gateway Network
Address Translation (NAT) security feature lets you conceal the topology of a
38
Overview of Major Capabilities
hard-wired Ethernet or wireless network connected to its LAN interface from
routers on networks connected to its WAN interface. In other words, the
end computer stations on your LAN are invisible from the Internet.
Only a single WAN IP address is required to provide this security support
for your entire LAN.
LAN sites that communicate through an Internet Service Provider typically
enable NAT, since they usually purchase only one IP address from the ISP.
• When NAT is ON, the Cayman Gateway “proxies” for the end computer
stations on your network by pretending to be the originating host for network communications from non-originating networks. The WAN interface
address is the only IP address exposed.
The Cayman Gateway tracks which local hosts are communicating with
which remote hosts. It routes packets received from remote networks to
the correct computer on the LAN (Ethernet) interface.
• When NAT is OFF, a Cayman Gateway acts as a traditional TCP/IP router,
all LAN computers/devices are exposed to the Internet.
A diagram of a typical NAT-enabled LAN follows:

☛
NOTE:
1. The default setting for NAT is ON.
2. Cayman uses Port Address Translation (PAT) to implement the
NAT facility.
3. NAT Pinhole traffic (discussed below) is always initiated from
the WAN side.
Cayman Advanced Features for NAT. Using the NAT facility provides
effective LAN security. However, there are user applications that require
methods to selectively by-pass this security function for certain types of
Internet traffic.
40
Overview of Major Capabilities
Cayman Gateways provide special pinhole configuration rules that enable
users to establish NAT-protected LAN layouts that still provide flexible bypass capabilities.
Some of these rules require coordination with the unit’s embedded administration services: the internal Web (HTTP) Port (TCP 80) and the internal
Telnet Server Port (TCP 23).
Internal Servers. The internal servers are the embedded Web and Telnet
servers of the Gateway. You would change the internal server ports for Web
and Telnet of the Gateway if you wanted to have these services on the LAN
using pinholes or the Default server. Pinhole configuration rules provide an
internal port forwarding facility that enables you to eliminate conflicts with
embedded administrative ports 80 and 23.
Pinholes. This feature allows you to:
• Transparently route selected types of network traffic using the port forwarding facility.
FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections are directed to a specific host
on your LAN.
• Setup multiple pinhole paths.
Up to 32 paths are supported

Default Server. This feature allows you to:
• Direct your Gateway to forward all externally initiated IP traffic (TCP and
UDP protocols only) to a default host on the LAN.
• Enable it for certain situations:
Where you cannot anticipate what port number or packet protocol an inbound application might use.
For example, some network games select arbitrary port numbers when a
connection is opened.
When you want all unsolicited traffic to go to a specific LAN host.
Combination NAT Bypass Configuration. Specific pinholes and Default
Server settings, each directed to different LAN devices, can be used
together.
☛
WARNING:
Creating a pinhole or enabling a Default Server allows inbound
access to the specified LAN station. Contact your Network Administrator for LAN security questions.
VPN IPSec Pass Through. This Cayman service supports your independent VPN client software in a transparent manner. Cayman has implemented an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) to support multiple PCs running
IP Security protocols.
This feature has three elements:
1.
42
On power up or reset, the address mapping function (NAT) of the Gateway’s WAN configuration is turned on by default.
Overview of Major Capabilities
2.
3.
When you use your third-party VPN application, the Gateway recognizes
the traffic from your client and your unit. It allows the packets to pass
through the NAT “protection layer” via the encrypted IPSec tunnel.
The encrypted IPSec tunnel is established “through” the Gateway.
A typical VPN IPSec Tunnel pass through is diagrammed below:
Cayman
Gateway
☛
NOTE:
Typically, no special configuration is necessary to use the IPSec
pass through feature.
In the diagram, VPN PC clients are shown behind the Cayman
Gateway and the secure server is at Corporate Headquarters
across the WAN. You cannot have your secure server behind the
Cayman Gateway.
When multiple PCs are starting IPSec sessions, they must be
started one at a time to allow the associations to be created and
mapped.

LAN
Link: Configure -> LAN
* Enable Interface: Enables all LAN-connected computers to share
resources and to connect to the WAN. The Interface should always be
enabled unless you are instructed to disable it by your Service Provider during troubleshooting.
* IP Address: The LAN IP Address of the Gateway. The IP Address you
assign to your LAN interface must not be used by another device on your
LAN network.
* IP Netmask: Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32bit binary IP address represent network information. The default subnet
mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask.)
55
* Restrictions: Specifies whether an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection to the Gateway over the LAN interface in order
to monitor and configure the Gateway. On the LAN Interface, you can enable
or disable administrator access. By default, administrative restrictions are
turned off, meaning an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection through the LAN Interface.
• Advanced: Clicking on the Advanced link displays the Advanced LAN IP
Interface page.
• IGMP Forwarding: The default setting is Disabled. If you check this
option, it will enable Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) multicast forwarding. IGMP allows a router to determine which host groups
have members on a given network segment.
• RIP Send Mode: Specifies whether the gateway should use Routing
Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to advertise its routing tables to
other routers on your network. You may choose from the following protocols:
• RIP-1: Routing Information Protocol version 1
• RIP-2: RIP Version 2 is an extension of the original Routing Information
Protocol (RIP-1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP
packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2
supports several new features, including inclusion of subnet masks in
RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting
(which reduces the load on hosts which do not support routing protocols.
56
Configure
• RIP-1 compatibility: Compatible with RIP version 1
• RIP-2 with MD5: MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that
increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are
advertised.
• RIP MD5 Key: Secret password when using RIP-2 with MD5.
• RIP Receive Mode: Specifies whether the Gateway should use Routing
Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to update its routing tables with
information received from other routers on your network. The protocol
choices are the same as for the RIP send mode.
• DHCP Server: Your Gateway can provide network configuration information to computers on your LAN, using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
If you already have a DHCP server on your LAN, you should turn this service
off.
If you want the Gateway to provide this service, click the Server Mode pulldown menu, choose Server, then configure the range of IP addresses that
you would like the Gateway to hand out to your computers.
You can also specify the length of time the computers can use the configuration information; DHCP calls this period the lease time.
57
Your Service Provider may, for certain services, want to provide configuration from its DHCP servers to the computers on your LANs. In this case, the
Gateway will relay the DHCP requests from your computers to a DHCP
server in the Service Provider's network. Click the relay-agent and enter the
IP address of the Service Provider's DHCP server in the Server Address
field. This address is furnished by the Service Provider.
• Wireless: If your Gateway is a wireless model (such as a 3347W) you can
enable or disable the wireless LAN by clicking the Wireless link. When Wireless Options are disabled, the Gateway will not provide or broadcast any
wireless LAN services.
If you check the Enable Wireless checkbox, the screen expands to the following:
Wireless ID (ESSID): Enter a freeform name of up to 32 characters. This is
used to identify the wireless LAN. Users must select or enter this name on
their clients in order to become a part of this WLAN. On your client PCs’
software, this might be called Network Name or SSID.
58
Configure
You can then configure:
Default Channel: (1 through 11) on which the network will broadcast. This
is a frequency range within the 2.4Ghz band. Channel selection depends on
government regulated radio frequencies that vary from region to region. The
widest range available is from 1 to 14. However, in North America only 1 to
11 may be selected. Channel selection can have a significant impact on
performance, depending on other wireless activity close to this Gateway.
Channel selection is not necessary at the client computers; the clients will
scan the available channels seeking access points using the same ESSID
as the client.
Enable Closed System Mode: If enabled, Closed System Mode hides the
wireless network from the scanning features of wireless client computers.
Members of the Closed System WLAN must log onto the network by ESSID
and logon credentials; it will not appear in scanned lists of available access
points. If disabled, it is more convenient for clients to access your WLAN by
scanning available access points. You must decide based on your own network requirements.
Enable WEP Encryption: You can provide a level of data security by
enabling WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) for encryption of network data. You
can enable 40-, 128-, or 256-bit WEP Encryption (depending on the capability of your client wireless card) for IP traffic on your LAN.
You select a single key for encryption of outbound traffic. The WEP-enabled
client must have an identical key of the same length, in the identical slot (1
– 4) as the Gateway, in order to successfully receive and decrypt the traffic.
Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’ key that it uses to encrypt its transmissions. In order for the Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have the identical key of the same length, in the same slot. For
simplicity, a Gateway and its clients need only enter, share, and use the
first key.
59
You are strongly encouraged to enable WEP encryption on your wireless
LAN.
The pull-down menu for enabling WEP offers three settings: Off - No Privacy, On - Automatic, and On - Manual Entry.
• Off - No Privacy provides no encryption on your wireless LAN data.
60
Configure
• On - Automatic is a passphrase generator. When you click the Submit
button, the software generates encryption keys automatically. Some clients may not generate the same keys.
Select the Encryption Key Size #1 – #4 from their respective pull-down
menus.
Use WEP encryption key (1 – 4) # specifies which key the Gateway will
use to encrypt transmitted traffic. The default is key #1.
When you click the Submit button, the software generates encryption keys
automatically.
61
• On - Manual Entry allows you to enter your own encryption keys manually. This is a difficult process, but only needs to be done once. Avoid the
temptation to enter all the same characters.
Encryption Key Size #1 – #4: Selects the length of each encryption key.
The longer the key, the stronger the encryption and the more difficult it is to
break the encryption.
Encryption Key #1 – #4: The encryption keys. You enter keys using hexadecimal digits. For 40/64bit encryption, you need ten digits; 26 digits for
128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Hexadecimal characters are 0 – 9,
and a – f.
62

Examples:
• 40bit: 02468ACE02

Enable Gateway: You can configure the Gateway to send packets to a
default gateway if it does not know how to reach the destination host.
Interface Type: If you have PPPoE enabled, you can specify that packets
destined for unknown hosts will be sent to the gateway being used by the
remote PPP peer. If you select ip-address, you must enter the IP address
of a host on a local or remote network to receive the traffic.
Default Gateway: The IP Address of the default gateway.
64

Other WAN Options
PPPoE: You can enable or disable PPPoE. This link also allows configuration of NAT, admin restrictions, PPPoE username/password, and connection type.
ATM Circuits: You can configure the ATM circuits and the number of Sessions. The IP Interface(s) should be reconfigured after making changes
here.
COS Version 7 supports VPI/VCI autodetection. If VPI/VCI autodetection
is enabled, the ATM Circuits page displays VPI/VCI = 0. If you configure a
new ATM VPI/VCI pair, upon saving and restarting, autodetection is disabled and only the new VPI/VCI pair configuration will be enabled.
Autodetection can only be enabled through the CLI. (See “Command Line
Interface” on page 151.) VPI/VCI Autodetection consists of eight static
VPI/VCI pair configurations. These are 0/35, 8/35, 0/32, 1/35, 8/32,
1/1, 1/32, 2/32. These eight VPI/VCI pairs will be created if the Gateway is configured for autodetection. If the Gateway does not train to any
of these preconfigured VPI/VCI pairs, then you can manually enter a VPI/
VCI pair in the ATM Circuits page.
ATM Traffic Shaping: You can prioritize delay-sensitive data by configuring the Quality of Service (QoS) characteristics of the virtual circuit. Click
the ATM Traffic Shaping link.
65
You can choose UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate) or CBR (Constant Bit Rate)
from the pull-down menu and set the Peak Cell Rate (PCR) in the editable
field.
Unspecified Bit Rate (UBR) guarantees no minimum transmission rate.
Cells are transmitted on a “best effort” basis. However, there is a cap
on the maximum transmission rate for UBR VCs. In a practical situation:
• UBR VCs should be transmitted at a priority lower than CBR.
• Bandwidth should be shared equally among UBR VCs.
UBR applications are non real time traffic such as IP data traffic.
Constant Bit Rate (CBR) guarantees a certain transmission rate
(although the application may under utilize this bandwidth). A Peak Cell
Rate (PCR) characterizes CBR. CBR is most suited for real time applications such as real time voice / video. Although it can be used for other
applications.

The following are links under Configure -> Advanced:
67
Link: Advanced
Selected Advanced options are discussed in the pages that follow. Many
are self-explanatory or are dictated by your service provider.
Link: IP Static Routes
A static route identifies a manually configured pathway to a remote network.
Unlike dynamic routes, which are acquired and confirmed periodically from
other routers, static routes do not time out. Consequently, static routes are
useful when working with PPP, since an intermittent PPP link may make
maintenance of dynamic routes problematic.
You can configure as many as 32 static IP routes for the Gateway.
Link: IP Static ARP
Your Gateway maintains a dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table
to map IP addresses to Ethernet (MAC) addresses. It populates this ARP
table dynamically, by retrieving IP address/MAC address pairs only when it
68
Configure
needs them. Optionally, you can define static ARP entries to map IP
addresses to their corresponding Ethernet MAC addresses. Unlike dynamic
ARP table entries, static ARP table entries do not time out. The IP address
cannot be 0.0.0.0. The Ethernet MAC address entry is in nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn
(hexadecimal) format.
Link: Pinholes
Pinholes allow you to transparently route selected types of network traffic,
such as FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections, to a specific host behind
the Gateway. Creating a pinhole allows access traffic originating from a
remote connection (WAN) to be sent to the internal computer (LAN) that is
specified in the Pinhole page.
Pinholes are common for applications like multiplayer online games. Refer
to software manufacturer application documentation for specific traffic
types and port numbers.
69
Configure Specific Pinholes. Planning for Your Pinholes. Determine if
any of the service applications that you want to provide on your LAN stations use TCP or UDP protocols. If an application does, then you must configure a pinhole to implement port forwarding. This is accessed from the
Advanced -> Pinholes page.
Example: A LAN Requiring Three Pinholes . The procedure on the following pages describes how you set up your NAT-enabled Cayman Gateway
to support three separate applications. This requires passing three kinds of
specific IP traffic through to your LAN.
Application 1: You have a Web server located on your LAN behind your Cayman Gateway and would like users on the Internet to have access to it. With
NAT “On”, the only externally visible IP address on your network is the Gateway’s WAN IP (supplied by your Service Provider). All traffic intended for that
LAN Web server must be directed to that IP address.
Application 2: You want one of your LAN stations to act as the “central
repository” for all email for all of the LAN users.
Application 3: One of your LAN stations is specially configured for game
applications. You want this specific LAN station to be dedicated to games.
A sample table to plan the desired pinholes is:
WAN Traffic Type

LAN Internal IP
Address
192.168.1.1
192.168.1.2
192.168.1.3
For this example, Internet protocols TCP and UDP must be passed through
the NAT security feature and the Gateway’s embedded Web (HTTP) port
must be re-assigned by configuring new settings on the Internal Servers
page.
70
Configure
☛
TIPS for making Pinhole Entries:
1. If the port forwarding feature is required for Web services,
ensure that the embedded Web server’s port number is reassigned PRIOR to any Pinhole data entry.
2. Enter data for one Pinhole at a time.
3. Use a unique name for each Pinhole. If you choose a duplicate
name, it will overwrite the previous information without warning.

Link: IPMaps
IPMaps supports one-to-one Network Address Translation (NAT) for IP
addresses assigned to servers, hosts, or specific computers on the LAN
side of the Cayman Gateway.
76
Configure
A single static or dynamic (DHCP) WAN IP address must be assigned to support other devices on the LAN. These devices utilize Cayman’s default NAT/
PAT capabilities.
Configure the IPMaps Feature
FAQs for the IPMaps Feature
Before configuring an example of an IPMaps-enabled network, review these
frequently asked questions.
What are IPMaps and how are they used? The IPMaps feature allows
multiple static WAN IP addresses to be assigned to the Cayman Gateway.
Static WAN IP addresses are used to support specific services, like a web
server, mail server, or DNS server. This is accomplished by mapping a separate static WAN IP address to a specific internal LAN IP address. All traffic
arriving at the Gateway intended for the static IP address is transferred to
the internal device. All outbound traffic from the internal device appears to
originate from the static IP address.
Locally hosted servers are supported by a public IP address while LAN
users behind the NAT-enabled IP address are protected.
77
IPMaps is compatible with the use of NAT, with either a statically assigned
IP address or DHCP/PPP served IP address for the NAT table.
What types of servers are supported by IPMaps? IPMaps allows a Cayman Gateway to support servers behind the Gateway, for example, web,
mail, FTP, or DNS servers. VPN servers are not supported at this time.
Can I use IPMaps with my PPPoE or PPPoA connection? Yes. IPMaps
can be assigned to the WAN interface provided they are on the same
subnet. Service providers will need to ensure proper routing to all IP
addresses assigned to your WAN interface.
Will IPMaps allow IP addresses from different subnets to be assigned
to my Gateway? IPMap will support statically assigned WAN IP addresses
from the same subnet.
WAN IP addresses from different subnets are not supported.

Link: Default Server
This feature allows you to:
• Direct your Gateway to forward all externally initiated IP traffic (TCP and
UDP protocols only) to a default host on the LAN.
• Enable it for certain situations:
– Where you cannot anticipate what port number or packet protocol an
in-bound application might use. For example, some network games
select arbitrary port numbers when a connection is opened.
– When you want all unsolicited traffic to go to a specific LAN host.
• Configure for IP Passthrough.
Configure a Default Server. This feature allows you to direct unsolicited
or non-specific traffic to a designated LAN station. With NAT “On” in the
Gateway, these packets normally would be discarded.
For instance, this could be application traffic where you don’t know (in
advance) the port or protocol that will be used. Some game applications fit
this profile.

NAT Combination Application. Cayman’s NAT security feature allows you
to configure a sophisticated LAN layout that uses both the Pinhole and
Default Server capabilities.
With this topology, you configure the embedded administration ports as a
first task, followed by the Pinholes and, finally, the NAT Default Server.
When using both NAT pinholes and NAT Default Server the Gateway works
with the following rules (in sequence) to forward traffic from the Internet to
the LAN:
1.
2.
3.
If the packet is a response to an existing connection created by outbound
traffic from a LAN PC, forward to that station.
If not, check for a match with a pinhole configuration and, if one is found,
forward the packet according to the pinhole rule.
If there’s no pinhole, the packet is forwarded to the Default Server.
IP-Passthrough. COS Version 7 now offers an IP passthrough feature. The
IP passthrough feature allows a single PC on the LAN to have the Gateway’s
public address assigned to it. It also provides PAT (NAPT) via the same public IP address for all other hosts on the private LAN subnet. Using IP
passthrough:
• The public WAN IP is used to provide IP address translation for private
LAN computers.
• The public WAN IP is assigned and reused on a LAN computer.
• DHCP address serving can automatically serve the WAN IP address to a
LAN computer.
When DHCP is used for addressing the designated passthrough PC, the
acquired or configured WAN address is passed to DHCP, which will
dynamically configure a single-servable-address subnet, and reserve the
address for the configured MAC address. This dynamic subnet configuration is based on the local and remote WAN address and subnet mask. If
the WAN interface does not have a suitable subnet mask that is usable,
for example when using PPP or PPPoE, the DHCP subnet configuration
83
will default to a class C subnet mask.
If you select IP-Passthrough the Host Hardware Address field displays.
Here you enter the MAC address of the designated IP-Passthrough computer.
• If this MAC address is not all zeroes, then it will use DHCP to set the LAN
host's address to the (configured or acquired) WAN IP address.
The MAC address must be six colon-delimited or dash-delimited sets of
hex digits ('0' – 'FF').
• If the MAC address is all zeroes, then the LAN host will have to be configured manually.
Once configured, the passthrough host's DHCP leases will be shortened to
two minutes. This allows for timely updates of the host's IP address, which
will be a private IP address before the WAN connection is established. After
the WAN connection is established and has an address, the passthrough
host can renew its DHCP address binding to acquire the WAN IP address.
A restriction. Since both the Gateway and the passthrough host will use
the same IP address, new sessions that conflict with existing sessions will
be rejected by the Gateway. For example, suppose you are a teleworker
using an IPSec tunnel from the Gateway and from the passthrough host.
Both tunnels go to the same remote endpoint, such as the VPN access concentrator at your employer’s office. In this case, the first one to start the
IPSec traffic will be allowed; the second one – since, from the WAN, it's
indistinguishable – will fail.
84
Configure
Link: DNS
Your Service Provider may maintain a Domain Name server. If you have the
information for the DNS servers, enter it on the DNS page. If your Gateway
is configured to use DHCP to obtain its WAN IP address, the DNS information is automatically obtained from that same DHCP Server.
Link: DHCP Server
Your Gateway can provide network configuration information to computers
on your LAN, using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
If you already have a DHCP server on your LAN, you should turn this service
off.
If you want the Gateway to provide this service, click the Server Mode pulldown menu, then configure the range of IP addresses that you would like
the Gateway to hand out to your computers.
85
You can also specify the length of time the computers can use the configuration information; DHCP calls this period the lease time.
Your Service Provider may, for certain services, want to provide configuration from its DHCP servers to the computers on your LANs. In this case, the
Gateway will relay the DHCP requests from your computers to a DHCP
server in the Service Provider's network.
Click the relay-agent and enter the IP address of the Service Provider's
DHCP server in the Server Address field. This address is furnished by the
Service Provider.
Link: SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets a network administrator monitor problems on a network by retrieving settings on remote network devices. The network administrator typically runs an SNMP
management station program on a local host to obtain information from an
SNMP agent. In this case, the Cayman Gateway is an SNMP agent.
You enter SNMP configuration information on this page.
Your network administrator furnishes the SNMP parameters.
86
Configure
☛
WARNING:
SNMP presents you with a security issue. The community
facility of SNMP behaves somewhat like a password. The
community “public” is a well-known community name. It
could be used to examine the configuration of your Gateway
by your service provider or an uninvited reviewer. While
Cayman's SNMP implementation does not allow changes to
the configuration, the information can be read from the
Gateway.
If you are strongly concerned about security, you may
delete the “public” community.
87
Link: Advanced -> Ethernet Bridge
The Cayman Gateway can be used as a bridge, rather than a router. A
bridge is a device that joins two networks. As an Internet access device, a
bridge connects the home computer directly to the service provider’s network equipment with no intervening routing functionality, such as Network
Address Translation. Your home computer becomes just another address
on the service provider’s network. In a DSL connection, the bridge serves
simply to convey the digital data information back and forth over your telephone lines in a form that keeps it separate from your voice telephone signals.
If your service provider’s network is set up to provide your Internet connectivity via bridge mode, you can set your Cayman Gateway to be compatible.
Bridges let you join two networks, so that they appear to be part of the
same physical network. As a bridge for protocols other than TCP/IP, your
Gateway keeps track of as many as 255 MAC (Media Access Control)
addresses, each of which uniquely identifies an individual host on a network. Your Gateway uses this bridging table to identify which hosts are
accessible through which of its network interfaces. The bridging table contains the MAC address of each packet it sees, along with the interface over
which it received the packet. Over time, the Gateway learns which hosts are
available through its WAN port and/or its LAN port.
When configured in Bridge Mode, the Cayman will act as a pass-through
device and allow the workstations on your LAN to have public addresses
directly on the internet.
☛
NOTE:
In this mode the Cayman is providing NO firewall protection as is
afforded by NAT. Also, only the workstations that have a public
address can access the internet. This can be useful when you
need to use all five of your static public IPs on the LAN.

to be in the same subnet as the Ethernet interface of the Cayman.
Link: Stateful Inspection
Stateful inspection is a security feature that prevents unsolicited inbound
access when NAT is disabled. You can configure UDP and TCP “no-activity”
periods that will also apply to NAT time-outs if stateful inspection is enabled
on the interface. Stateful Inspection parameters are active on a WAN interface only if enabled on your Gateway. Stateful inspection can be enabled on
a profile whether NAT is enabled or not.
• UDP no-activity time-out: The time in seconds after which a UDP session will be terminated, if there is no traffic on the session.
93
• TCP no-activity time-out: The time in seconds after which an TCP session will be terminated, if there is no traffic on the session.
• Exposed Addresses: The hosts specified in Exposed addresses will be
allowed to receive inbound traffic even if there is no corresponding outbound traffic. This is active only if NAT is disabled on an WAN interface.
• Stateful Inspection Options: Enable and configure stateful inspection
on a WAN interface.
Exposed Addresses
You can specify the IP addresses you want to expose by clicking the
Exposed addresses link.
Add, Edit, or delete exposed addresses options are active only if NAT is disabled on a WAN interface. The hosts specified in exposed addresses will be

97
Link: System
The System Name defaults to your Gateway's factory identifier combined
with its serial number. Some cable-oriented Service Providers use the System Name as an important identification and support parameter. If your
Gateway is part of this type of network, do NOT alter the System Name
unless specifically instructed by your Service Provider.
The System Name can be 1-63 characters long; it can include embedded
spaces and special characters.
The Log Message Level alters the severity at which messages are collected in the Gateway's system log. Do not alter this field unless instructed
by your Support representative.

• Log Violations: If you check this checkbox, the Gateway will generate
messages whenever a packet is discarded because it violates the
router's security policy.
• Log Access Attempts: If you check this checkbox, the Gateway will generate messages whenever a packet attempts to access the router or
tries to pass through the router.
• Log Accepted Packets: If you check this checkbox, the Gateway will
generate messages whenever a packet accesses the router or passes
through the router.

Configure
Link: Internal Servers
Your Gateway ships with an embedded Web server and support for a Telnet
session, to allow ease of use for configuration and maintenance. The
default ports of 80 for HTTP and 23 for Telnet may be reassigned. This is
necessary if a pinhole is created to support applications using port 80 or
23. See “Pinholes” on page 69. for more information on Pinhole configuration.
Web (HTTP) Server Port: To reassign the port number used to access the
Cayman embedded Web server, change this value to a value greater than
1024. When you next access the embedded Cayman Web server, append
the IP address with , (e.g. Point your browser to http://
210.219.41.20:8080).
Telnet Server Port: To reassign the port number used to access your Cayman embedded Telnet server, change this value to a value greater than
1024. When you next access the Cayman embedded Telnet server, append
the IP address with , (e.g. telnet 210.219.41.20 2323).

Link: Firewall
Use a Cayman Firewall
BreakWater Basic Firewall. BreakWater delivers an easily selectable set
of pre-configured firewall protection levels. For simple implementation these
settings (comprised of three levels) are readily available through Cayman’s
embedded web server interface.
BreakWater Basic Firewall’s three settings are:
• ClearSailing
ClearSailing, BreakWater's default setting, supports both inbound and
outbound traffic. It is the only basic firewall setting that fully interoperates with all other Cayman software features.
• SilentRunning
Using this level of firewall protection allows transmission of outbound
traffic on pre-configured TCP/UDP ports. It disables any attempt for
inbound traffic to identify the Gateway. This is the Internet equivalent of
having an unlisted number.
• LANdLocked
The third option available turns off all inbound and outbound traffic, isolating the LAN and disabling all WAN traffic.
109
☛
NOTE:
BreakWater Basic Firewall operates independent of the NAT functionality on the Gateway.
Configuring for a BreakWater Setting
Use these steps to establish a firewall setting:

Basic Firewall Background
As a device on the Internet, a Cayman Gateway requires an IP address in
order to send or receive traffic.
The IP traffic sent or received have an associated application port which is
dependent on the nature of the connection request. In the IP protocol standard the following session types are common applications:
• ICMP
• SNMP
• HTTP
• telnet
• FTP
• DHCP
By receiving a response to a scan from a port or series of ports (which is
the expected behavior according to the IP standard), hackers can identify an
existing device and gain a potential opening for access to an internet-connected device.
111
To protect LAN users and their network from these types of attacks, BreakWater offers three levels of increasing protection.
The following tables indicate the state of ports associated with session
types, both on the WAN side and the LAN side of the Gateway.
This table shows how inbound traffic is treated. Inbound means the traffic

Link: Install Keys
You can obtain advanced product functionality by employing a software Feature Key. Software feature keys are specific to a Gateway's serial number.
Once the feature key file is installed and the Gateway is restarted, the new
feature's functionality becomes enabled.
Use Cayman Software Feature Keys
Cayman Gateway users obtain advanced product functionality by installing a
software feature key. This concept utilizes a specially constructed and distributed file (referred to as a feature key) to enable additional capability
within the unit.
Software feature key properties are specific to a unit’s serial number; they
will not be accepted on a platform with another serial number.
Once installed, and the Gateway restarted, the new feature’s functionality
becomes available. This allows full access to configuration, operation,
maintenance and administration of the new enhancement.
Obtaining Software Feature Keys
Contact Netopia or your Service Provider to acquire a Software Feature Key.
Procedure - Install a New Feature Key File

Diagnostics
The diagnostics section tests a number of different things at the same
time, including the DSL line, the Ethernet interface and the PPPoE session.
The following table summarizes the possible results.
CODE
Description
PASS
FAIL
SKIPPED
The test was successful.
The test was unsuccessful.
The test was skipped because a test on which it depended failed, or it was
not supported by the service provider equipment to which it is connected.
PENDING The test timed out without producing a result. Try running the test again.
WARNING The test was unsuccessful. The Service Provider equipment your Gateway
connects to may not support this test.
147
Network Tools
Three test tools are available from this page.
• NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.
• Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by
sending an ICMP echo request and waiting for a reply.
• TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number
of hops and the router addresses of these hops.
1.
To use the NSLookup capability, type an address (domain name or IP
address) in the text box and click the NSLookup button
Example: Show the IP Address for grosso.com.
148
Result: The DNS Server doing the lookup is displayed in the Server: and
Address: fields. If the Name Server can find your entry in its table, it is
displayed in the Name: and Address: fields.
PING: The network tools section sends a PING from the Gateway to either
the LAN or WAN to verify connectivity. A PING could be either an IP address
(163.176.4.32) or Domain Name (www.netopia.com).
2.
To use the Ping capability, type a destination address (domain name or IP
address) in the text box and click the Ping button.
Example: Ping to grosso.com.
Result: The host was reachable with four out of five packets sent.
Below are some specific tests:

CHAPTER 6
Command Line
Interface
The Cayman Gateway operating software includes a command
line interface (CLI) that lets you access your Cayman Gateway
over a telnet connection. You can use the command line interface to enter and update the unit’s configuration settings, monitor its performance, and restart it.
This chapter covers the following topics:
• “Overview” on page 152
• “Starting and Ending a CLI Session” on page 154
• “Using the CLI Help Facility” on page 155
• “About SHELL Commands” on page 156
• “SHELL Commands” on page 157

Starting and Ending a CLI Session
Open a telnet connection from a workstation on your network.
You initiate a telnet connection by issuing the following command from an IP host that supports telnet, for example, a personal computer running a telnet application such as NCSA
Telnet.
telnet 
You must know the IP address of the Cayman Gateway before
you can make a telnet connection to it. By default, your Cayman
Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as the IP address for its LAN
interface. You can use a Web browser to configure the Cayman
Gateway IP address.
Logging In
The command line interface log-in process emulates the log-in
process for a UNIX host. To logon, enter the username (either
admin or user), and your password.
• Entering the administrator password lets you display and
update all Cayman Gateway settings.
• Entering a user password lets you display (but not update)
Cayman Gateway settings.
When you have logged in successfully, the command line interface lists the username and the security level associated with
the password you entered in the diagnostic log.
Ending a CLI Session
You end a command line interface session by typing quit from
the SHELL node of the command line interface hierarchy.
154
Using the CLI Help Facility
Saving Settings
The save command saves the working copy of the settings to
the Gateway. The Gateway automatically validates its settings
when you save and displays a warning message if the configuration is not correct.
Using the CLI Help Facility
The help command lets you display on-line help for SHELL and
CONFIG commands. To display a list of the commands available
to you from your current location within the command line interface hierarchy, enter help.
To obtain help for a specific CLI command, type help . You can truncate the help command to h or a question
mark when you request help for a CLI command.
155
About SHELL Commands
You begin in SHELL mode when you start a CLI session. SHELL
mode lets you perform the following tasks with your Cayman
Gateway:
• Monitor its performance
• Display and reset Gateway statistics
• Issue administrative commands to restart Cayman Gateway
functions
SHELL Prompt
When you are in SHELL mode, the CLI prompt is the name of
the Cayman Gateway followed by a right angle bracket (>). For
example, if you open a CLI connection to the Cayman Gateway
named “Coconut,” you would see Coconut> as your CLI prompt.
SHELL Command Shortcuts
You can truncate most commands in the CLI to their shortest
unique string. For example, you can use the truncated command q in place of the full quit command to exit the CLI. However, you would need to enter rese for the reset command,
since the first characters of reset are common to the restart
command.
The only commands you cannot truncate are restart and clear.
To prevent accidental interruption of communications, you must
enter the restart and clear commands in their entirety.
You can use the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll backward
and forward through recent commands you have entered. Alternatively, you can use the !! command to repeat the last command you entered.
156
SHELL Commands
SHELL Commands
Common Commands
arp nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
Sends an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request to match
the nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn IP address to an Ethernet hardware
address.
clear [yes]
Clears the configuration settings in a Cayman Gateway. If you
do not use the optional yes qualifier, you are prompted to confirm the clear command.
configure
Puts the command line interface into Configure mode, which
lets you configure your Cayman Gateway with Config commands. Config commands are described starting on page 153.
diagnose
Runs a diagnostic utility to conduct a series of internal checks
and loopback tests to verify network connectivity over each
interface on your Cayman Gateway. The console displays the
results of each test as the diagnostic utility runs. If one test is
dependent on another, the diagnostic utility indents its entry in
the console window. For example, the diagnostic utility indents
the Check IP connect to Ethernet (LAN) entry, since that test
will not run if the Check Ethernet LAN Connect test fails.
157
Each test generates one of the following result codes:
CODE
PASS
FAIL
SKIPPED
PENDING
Description
The test was successful.
The test was unsuccessful.
The test was skipped because a test on
which it depended failed.
The test timed out without producing a result.
Try running the test again.
download [ –key server_address] [filename] [confirm]
With no flags set, this command installs a file of configuration
parameters into the Cayman Gateway from a TFTP (Trivial File
Transfer Protocol) server. The TFTP server must be accessible
on your Ethernet network.
With the –key flag set, downloads a new feature key to the
Gateway.
You can include one or more of the following arguments with
the download command. If you omit arguments, the console
prompts you for this information.
• The server_address argument identifies the IP address of
the TFTP server from which you want to copy the Cayman
Gateway configuration file.
• The filename argument identifies the path and name of the
configuration file on the TFTP server.

About CONFIG Commands
You reach the configuration mode of the command line interface by typing configure (or any truncation of configure, such
as c or config) at the CLI SHELL prompt.
CONFIG Mode Prompt
When you are in CONFIG mode, the CLI prompt consists of the
name of the Cayman Gateway followed by your current node in
the hierarchy and two right angle brackets (>>). For example,
when you enter CONFIG mode (by typing config at the SHELL
prompt), the Coconut (top)>> prompt reminds you that you
are at the top of the CONFIG hierarchy. If you move to the ip
node in the CONFIG hierarchy (by typing ip at the CONFIG
prompt), the prompt changes to Coconut (ip)>> to identify
your current location.
Some CLI commands are not available until certain conditions
are met. For example, you must enable IP for an interface
before you can enter IP settings for that interface.
Navigating the CONFIG Hierarchy
• Moving from CONFIG to SHELL — You can navigate from
anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy back to the SHELL level by
entering quit at the CONFIG prompt and pressing RETURN.
Dogzilla (top)>> quit
Dogzilla >
• Moving from top to a subnode — You can navigate from
the top node to a subnode by entering the node name (or the
significant letters of the node name) at the CONFIG prompt
and pressing RETURN. For example, you move to the IP subnode by entering ip and pressing RETURN.
168
About CONFIG Commands
Dogzilla (top)>> ip
Dogzilla (ip)>>
As a shortcut, you can enter the significant letters of the node
name in place of the full node name at the CONFIG prompt. The
significant characters of a node name are the letters that
uniquely identify the node. For example, since no other CONFIG
node starts with I, you could enter one letter (“i”) to move to
the IP node.
• Jumping down several nodes at once — You can jump
•
•
•
•
•
down several levels in the CONFIG hierarchy by entering the
complete path to a node.
Moving up one node — You can move up through the CONFIG hierarchy one node at a time by entering the up command.
Jumping to the top node — You can jump to the top level
from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy by entering the top
command.
Moving from one subnode to another — You can move
from one subnode to another by entering a partial path that
identifies how far back to climb.
Moving from any subnode to any other subnode — You
can move from any subnode to any other subnode by entering a partial path that starts with a top-level CONFIG command.
Scrolling backward and forward through recent commands — You can use the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll
backward and forward through recent commands you have
entered. When the command you want appears, press Enter
to execute it.
169
Entering Commands in CONFIG Mode
CONFIG commands consist of keywords and arguments. Keywords in a CONFIG command specify the action you want to
take or the entity on which you want to act. Arguments in a
CONFIG command specify the values appropriate to your site.
For example, the CONFIG command
set ip ethernet A ip_address
consists of two keywords (ip, and ethernet A) and one argument (ip_address). When you use the command to configure
your Gateway, you would replace the argument with a value
appropriate to your site.
For example:
set ip ethernet A 192.31.222.57
170
About CONFIG Commands
Guidelines: CONFIG Commands
The following table provides guidelines for entering and formatting CONFIG commands.
Command
component
Rules for entering CONFIG commands
Command verbs CONFIG commands must start with a command verb
(set, view, delete).
You can truncate CONFIG verbs to three characters
(set, vie, del).
CONFIG verbs are case-insensitive. You can enter
“SET,” “Set,” or “set.”
Keywords
Keywords are case-insensitive. You can enter “Ethernet,” “ETHERNET,” or “ethernet” as a keyword without
changing its meaning.
Keywords can be abbreviated to the length that they are
differentiated from other keywords.
Argument Text
Text strings can be as many as 64 characters long,
unless otherwise specified.
Numbers
IP addresses
Special characters are represented using backslash
notation.
Text strings may be enclosed in double (“) or single (‘)
quote marks. If the text string includes an embedded
space, it must be enclosed in quotes.
Special characters are represented using backslash
notation.
Enter numbers as integers.
Enter IP addresses in dotted decimal notation (0 to
255).
If a command is ambiguous or miskeyed, the CLI prompts you
to enter additional information. For example, you must specify
which virtual circuit you are configuring when you are setting up
a Cayman Gateway.
171
Displaying Current Gateway Settings
You can use the view command to display the current CONFIG
settings for your Cayman Gateway. If you enter the view command at the top level of the CONFIG hierarchy, the CLI displays
the settings for all enabled functions. If you enter the view command at an intermediate node, you see settings for that node
and its subnodes.
Step Mode: A CLI Configuration Technique
The Cayman Gateway command line interface includes a step
mode to automate the process of entering configuration settings. When you use the CONFIG step mode, the command line
interface prompts you for all required and optional information.
You can then enter the configuration values appropriate for your
site without having to enter complete CLI commands.
When you are in step mode, the command line interface
prompts you to enter required and optional settings. If a setting
has a default value or a current setting, the command line interface displays the default value for the command in parentheses. If a command has a limited number of acceptable values,
those values are presented in brackets, with each value separated by a vertical line. For example, the following CLI step command indicates that the default value is off and that valid
entries are limited to on and off.
option (off) [on | off]: on
You can accept the default value for a field by pressing the
Return key. To use a different value, enter it and press Return.
You can enter the CONFIG step mode by entering set from the
top node of the CONFIG hierarchy. You can enter step mode for
a particular service by entering set service_name. In step-

Diagnostic Level (High): medium
Stepping mode ended.
Validating Your Configuration
You can use the validate CONFIG command to make sure
that your configuration settings have been entered correctly. If
you use the validate command, the Cayman Gateway verifies
that all required settings for all services are present and that
settings are consistent.
Dogzilla (top)>> validate
Error: Subnet mask is incorrect
Global Validation did not pass
inspection!
You can use the validate command to verify your configuration settings at any time. Your Cayman Gateway automatically
validates your configuration any time you save a modified configuration.
173
CONFIG Commands
This section describes the keywords and arguments for the various CONFIG commands.
DSL Commands

Select the number of PPPoE sessions to be configured for
VCC 1, up to a total of eight. The total number of pppoe-sessions and PPPoE VCCs configured must be less than or equal
to eight.
Bridging Settings
Bridging lets the Cayman Gateway use MAC (Ethernet hardware) addresses to forward non-TCP/IP traffic from one network
to another. When bridging is enabled, the Cayman Gateway
maintains a table of up to 255 MAC addresses. Entries that are
not used within 10 minutes are dropped. If the bridging table
fills up, the oldest table entries are dropped to make room for
new entries.
Virtual circuits that use IP framing cannot be bridged.
☛
NOTE:
For bridging in the 3341 (or any model with a USB
port), you cannot set the bridge option off, or
bridge ethernet option off; these are on by default
because of the USB port.
176
CONFIG Commands
Common Commands
set bridge option {on | off }
Enables or disables bridging services in the Cayman Gateway.
You must enable bridging services within the Cayman Gateway
before you can enable bridging for a specific interface.
DSL Commands
set bridge ethernet option { on | off }
Enables or disables bridging services for the specified virtual
circuit using Ethernet framing.
set bridge interwan-bridging { on | off }
Enables or disables bridging between virtual circuit connections.
DHCP Settings
As a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) server, your Cayman Gateway can assign IP addresses and provide configuration information to other devices on your network dynamically. A
device that acquires its IP address and other TCP/IP configuration settings from the Cayman Gateway can use the information
for a fixed period of time (called the DHCP lease).
177
Common Commands
set dhcp option { off | server | relay-agent }
Enables or disables DHCP services in the Cayman Gateway.
You must enable DHCP services before you can enter other
DHCP settings for the Cayman Gateway.
If you turn off DHCP services and save the new configuration,
the Cayman Gateway clears its DHCP settings.
set dhcp start-address ip_address
If you selected server, specifies the first address in the
DHCP address range. The Cayman Gateway can reserve a
sequence of up to 253 IP addresses within a subnet, beginning
with the specified address for dynamic assignment.
set dhcp end-address ip_address
If you selected server, specifies the last address in the DHCP
address range.
set dhcp lease-time lease-time
If you selected server, specifies the default length for DHCP
leases issued by the Cayman Gateway. Enter lease time in
dd:hh:mm:ss (day/hour/minute/second) format.
178
CONFIG Commands
DMT Settings
DSL Commands
set dmt type [ lite | dmt | ansi | multi ]
Selects the type of Discrete Multitone (DMT) asynchronous digital subscriber line (ADSL) protocol to use for the WAN interface.
Domain Name System Settings
Domain Name System (DNS) is an information service for TCP/
IP networks that uses a hierarchical naming system to identify
network domains and the hosts associated with them. You can
identify a primary DNS server and one secondary server.
Common Commands
set dns domain-name domain-name
Specifies the default domain name for your network. When an
application needs to resolve a host name, it appends the
default domain name to the host name and asks the DNS
server if it has an address for the “fully qualified host name.”
set dns primary-address ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the primary DNS name server.
set dns secondary-address ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS name server.
Enter 0.0.0.0 if your network does not have a secondary DNS
name server.
179
IP Settings
You can use the command line interface to specify whether
TCP/IP is enabled, identify a default Gateway, and to enter
TCP/IP settings for the Cayman Gateway LAN and WAN ports.
☛
NOTE:
For the DSL platform you must identify the virtual
PPP interface [vccn], a number from 1 to 8.
Common Settings
set ip option { on | off }
Enables or disables TCP/IP services in the Cayman Gateway.
You must enable TCP/IP services before you can enter other
TCP/IP settings for the Cayman Gateway. If you turn off TCP/IP
services and save the new configuration, the Cayman Gateway
clears its TCP/IP settings.
DSL Settings
set ip dsl vccn address ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the virtual circuit. Enter 0.0.0.0 if you
want the virtual circuit to obtain its IP address from a remote
DHCP server.
set ip dsl vccn broadcast broadcast_address
Specifies the broadcast address for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. IP hosts use the broadcast address
180
CONFIG Commands
to send messages to every host on your network simultaneously.
The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broadcast address for
the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.
set ip dsl vccn netmask netmask
Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to
the virtual circuit. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the
32-bit binary IP address represents network information. The
default subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0
(Class C subnet mask).
set ip dsl vccn restriction { admin-disabled | none }
Specifies restrictions on the types of traffic the Cayman Gateway accepts over the DSL virtual circuit. The admin-disabled argument means that router traffic is accepted but that
administrative commands are ignored. The none argument
means that all traffic is accepted. RIP and ICMP traffic is still
accepted.
set ip dsl vccn addr-mapping { on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Cayman Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when communicating with
remote routers. Address mapping lets you conceal details of
your network from remote routers. It also permits all LAN
devices to share a single IP address.
By default, address mapping is turned “On”.
181
Ethernet Hub Settings
set ip ethernet option { on | off }
Enables or disables communications through the designated
Ethernet port in the Gateway. You must enable TCP/IP functions
for an Ethernet port before you can configure its network settings.
☛
NOTE:
Currently, the only option is on; it cannot be set to
off.
set ip ethernet A address ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the Cayman Gateway on the local area
network. The IP address you assign to the local Ethernet interface must be unique on your network. By default, the Cayman
Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as its LAN IP address.
set ip ethernet A broadcast broadcast_address
Specifies the broadcast address for the local Ethernet interface. IP hosts use the broadcast address to send messages to
every host on your network simultaneously.
The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broadcast address for
the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.
182
CONFIG Commands
set ip ethernet A netmask netmask
Specifies the subnet mask for the local Ethernet interface. The
subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binary IP
address represent network information. The default subnet
mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet
mask).
set ip ethernet A restrictions { none | admin-disabled }
Specifies whether an administrator can open a telnet connection to a Cayman Gateway over the Ethernet interface to monitor and configure the unit. On the WAN port, you can enable or
disable administrator access or specify that the WAN port can
only be used for administrative traffic. By default, administrative restrictions are off on the LAN, but Admin-Disabled is set
for the WAN, meaning an administrator can open a telnet connection.
set ip ethernet rip-send { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Cayman Gateway should use Routing
Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to advertise its routing
tables to other routers on your network. RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) is
an extension of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1)
that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms,
RIP-2 supports several additional features, including inclusion
of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting (which reduces the load on
hosts which do not support routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5
authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases security
by requiring an authentication key when routes are advertised.
183
Depending on your network needs, you can configure your Cayman Gateway to support RIP-1, RIP-2, or both.
Default IP Gateway Settings
set ip gateway option { on | off }
Specifies whether the Cayman Gateway should send packets to
a default Gateway if it does not know how to reach the destination host.
set ip gateway interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn }
Specifies how the Cayman Gateway should route information to
the default Gateway. If you select ip-address, you must enter
the IP address of a host on a local or remote network. If you
specify ppp, the Cayman unit uses the default gateway being
used by the remote PPP peer.
set ip gateway interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn}
Specifies whether a DSL Gateway is reached using a fixed IP
address or through a PPP virtual circuit.
IP-over-PPP Settings. Use the following commands to configure settings for routing IP over a virtual PPP interface.
☛
NOTE:
For a DSL platform you must identify the virtual PPP
interface [vccn], a number from vcc1 to vcc8.
184
CONFIG Commands
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] option { on | off }
Enables or disables IP routing through the virtual PPP interface.
By default, IP routing is turned off. You must enable IP routing
before you can enter other IP routing settings for the virtual PPP
interface. If you turn off IP routing and save the new configuration, the Cayman Gateway clears IP routing settings
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] address ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the virtual PPP interface. If you specify an IP address other than 0.0.0.0, your Cayman Gateway will
not negotiate its IP address with the remote peer. If the remote
peer does not accept the IP address specified in the
ip_address argument as valid, the link will not come up.
The default value for the ip_address argument is 0.0.0.0,
which indicates that the virtual PPP interface will use the IP
address assigned to it by the remote peer. Note that the
remote peer must be configured to supply an IP address to your
Cayman Gateway if you enter 0.0.0.0 for the ip_address
argument.
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] peer-address ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the peer on the other end of the PPP
link. If you specify an IP address other than 0.0.0.0, your Cayman Gateway will not negotiate the remote peer's IP address. If
the remote peer does not accept the address in the
ip_address argument as its IP address (typically because it
has been configured with another IP address), the link will not
come up.
185
The default value for the ip_address argument is 0.0.0.0,
which indicates that the virtual PPP interface will accept the IP
address returned by the remote peer. If you enter 0.0.0.0, the
peer system must be configured to supply this address.
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] restriction { admin-disabled | none }
Specifies restrictions on the types of traffic the Cayman Gateway accepts over the PPP virtual circuit. The admin-only argument means that router traffic is ignored but that administrative
commands are accepted. The none argument means that all
traffic is accepted.
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] addr-mapping { on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Cayman Gateway to use network address translation (NAT) when communicating with
remote routers. Network address translation lets you conceal
details of your network from remote routers. By default,
address mapping is turned on.
186
CONFIG Commands
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] rip-send
{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Cayman Gateway unit should use Routing
Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to advertise its routing
tables to routers on the other side of the PPP link. An extension
of the original Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1), RIP Version
2 (RIP-2) expands the amount of useful information in the packets. While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms,
RIP-2 supports several new features. For example, inclusion of
subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting. This last feature reduces the load
on hosts which do not support routing protocols. RIP-2 with
MD5 authentication is an extension of RIP-2 that increases
security by requiring an authentication key when routes are
advertised.
This command is only available when address mapping for the
specified virtual circuit is turned “off”.
set ip ip-ppp [vccn] rip-receive
{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Cayman Gateway should use Routing
Information Protocol (RIP) broadcasts to update its routing
tables with information received from other routers on the other
side of the PPP link.
This command is only available when address mapping for the
specified virtual circuit is turned “off”.
Static ARP Settings. Your Cayman Gateway maintains a
dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table to map IP
addresses to Ethernet (MAC) addresses. Your Cayman Gateway
populates this ARP table dynamically, by retrieving IP address/
187
MAC address pairs only when it needs them. Optionally, you can
define static ARP entries to map IP addresses to their corresponding Ethernet MAC addresses. Unlike dynamic ARP table
entries, static ARP table entries do not time out.
You can configure as many as 16 static ARP table entries for a
Cayman Gateway. Use the following commands to add static
ARP entries to the Cayman Gateway static ARP table:
set ip static-arp ip-address ip_address
Specifies the IP address for the static ARP entry. Enter an IP
address in the ip_address argument in dotted decimal format. The ip_address argument cannot be 0.0.0.0.
set ip static-arp ip-address ip_address hardware-address
MAC_address
Specifies the Ethernet hardware address for the static ARP
entry. Enter an Ethernet hardware address in the
MAC_address argument in nn.nn.nn.nn.nn.nn (hexadecimal)
format.
188

set xposed-addr exposed-address# "n"
end-port [ 1 - 65535 ]
Static Route Settings
A static route identifies a manually configured pathway to a
remote network. Unlike dynamic routes, which are acquired and
confirmed periodically from other routers, static routes do not
time out. Consequently, static routes are useful when working
with PPP, since an intermittent PPP link may make maintenance
of dynamic routes problematic.
You can configure as many as 16 static IP routes for a Cayman
Gateway. Use the following commands to maintain static routes
to the Cayman Gateway routing table:
set ip static-routes destination-network net_address
Specifies the network address for the static route. Enter a network address in the net_address argument in dotted decimal format. The net_address argument cannot be 0.0.0.0.
191
set ip static-routes destination-network net_address
netmask netmask
Specifies the subnet mask for the IP network at the other end
of the static route. Enter the netmask argument in dotted decimal format. The subnet mask associated with the destination
network must represent the same network class (A, B, or C) or
a lower class (such as a class C subnet mask for class B network number) to be valid.
set ip static-routes destination-network net_address
interface { ip-address | ppp-vccn }
Specifies the interface through which the static route is accessible.
set ip static-routes destination-network net_address
gateway-address gate_address
Specifies the IP address of the Gateway for the static route. The
default Gateway must be located on a network connected to the
Cayman Gateway configured interface.
set ip static-routes destination-network net_address
metric integer
Specifies the metric (hop count) for the static route. The default
metric is 1. Enter a number from 1 to 15 for the integer argument to indicate the number of routers (actual or best guess) a
packet must traverse to reach the remote network.
You can enter a metric of 1 to indicate either:
• The remote network is one router away and the static route
is the best way to reach it;
192
CONFIG Commands
• The remote network is more than one router away but the
static route should not be replaced by a dynamic route, even
if the dynamic route is more efficient.
delete ip static-routes destination-network net_address
Deletes a static route. Deleting a static route removes all information associated with that route.
IPMaps Settings
set ip-maps name  internal-ip 
Specifies the name and static ip address of the LAN device to
be mapped.
set ip-maps name  external-ip 
Specifies the name and static ip address of the WAN device to
be mapped.
Up to 8 mapped static IP addresses are supported.
193
Network Address Translation (NAT) Default
Settings
NAT default settings let you specify whether you want your Cayman Gateway to forward NAT traffic to a default server when it
doesn’t know what else to do with it. The NAT default host function is useful in situations where you cannot create a specific
NAT pinhole for a traffic stream because you cannot anticipate
what port number an application might use. For example, some
network games select arbitrary port numbers when a connection is being opened. By identifying your computer (or another
host on your network) as a NAT default server, you can specify
that NAT traffic that would otherwise be discarded by the Cayman Gateway should be directed to a specific hosts.
set nat-default mode { off | default-server |
ip-passthrough }
Specifies whether you want your Cayman Gateway to forward
unsolicited traffic from the WAN to a default server or an IP
passthrough host when it doesn’t know what else to do with it.
set nat-default { address ip_address |
host-hardware-address MAC_address }
Specifies the IP address of the NAT default server or the hardware (MAC) address of the IP passthrough host.
Network Address Translation (NAT) Pinhole
Settings
NAT pinholes let you pass specific types of network traffic
through the NAT interfaces on the Cayman Gateway. NAT pinholes allow you to route selected types of network traffic, such
194
CONFIG Commands
as FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections, to a specific host
behind the Cayman Gateway transparently.
To set up NAT pinholes, you identify the type(s) of traffic you
want to redirect by port number, and you specify the internal
host to which each specified type of traffic should be directed.
The following list identifies protocol type and port number for
common TCP/IP protocols:
• FTP (TCP 21)
• telnet (TCP 23)
• SMTP (TCP 25),
• TFTP (UDP 69)
• SNMP (TCP 161, UDP 161)
set pinhole name name
Specifies the identifier for the entry in the router's pinhole
table. You can name pinhole table entries sequentially (1, 2, 3),
by port number (21, 80, 23), by protocol, or by some other
naming scheme.
set pinhole name name protocol-select { tcp | udp }
Specifies the type of protocol being redirected.
set pinhole name name external-port-start [ 0 - 65535 ]
Specifies the first port number in the range being translated.
set pinhole name name external-port-end [ 0 - 65535 ]
Specifies the last port number in the range being translated.
195
set pinhole name name internal-ip internal-ip
Specifies the IP address of the internal host to which traffic of
the specified type should be transferred.
set pinhole name name internal-port internal-port
Specifies the port number your Cayman Gateway should use
when forwarding traffic of the specified type. Under most circumstances, you would use the same number for the external
and internal port.
PPPoE Settings
You can use the following commands to configure basic settings, port authentication settings, and peer authentication settings for PPP interfaces on your Cayman Gateway.
Configuring Basic PPP Settings.
☛
NOTE:
For the DSL platform you must identify the virtual
PPP interface [vccn], a number from 1 to 8.
set PPP module [vccn] option { on | off }
Enables or disables PPP on the Cayman Gateway.
196
CONFIG Commands
set PPP module [vccn] mru integer
Specifies the Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) for the PPP interface. The integer argument can be any number between 128
and 2048.
set PPP module [vccn] magic-number { on | off }
Enables or disables LCP magic number negotiation.
set PPP module [vccn] protocol-compression { on | off }
Specifies whether you want the Cayman Gateway to compress
the PPP Protocol field when it transmits datagrams over the PPP
link.
set PPP module [vccn] lcp-echo-requests { on | off }
Specifies whether you want your Cayman Gateway to send LCP
echo requests. You should turn off LCP echoing if you do not
want the Cayman Gateway to drop a PPP link to a nonresponsive peer.
set PPP module [vccn] failures-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the
PPP module can send without having sent a Configure-ACK message. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and
20.
set PPP module [vccn] configure-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration requests that your Cayman Gateway will send. The integer
argument can be any number between 1 and 10.
197
set PPP module [vccn] terminate-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination
requests that your Cayman Gateway will send before terminating the PPP link. The integer argument can be any number
between 1 and 10.
set PPP module [vccn] restart-timer integer
Specifies the number of seconds the Cayman Gateway should
wait before retransmitting a configuration or termination
request. The integer argument can be any number between 1
and 30.
set PPP module [vccn] connection-type
{ instant-on | always-on }
Specifies whether a PPP connection is maintained by the Cayman Gateway when it is unused for extended periods. If you
specify always-on, the Cayman Gateway never shuts down
the PPP link. If you specify instant-on, the Cayman Gateway
shuts down the PPP link after the number of seconds specified
in the time-out setting (below) if no traffic is moving over the
circuit.
set PPP module [vccn] time-out integer
If you specified a connection type of instant-on, specifies
the number of seconds, in the range 30 - 3600, with a default
value of 300, the Cayman Gateway should wait for communication activity before terminating the PPP link.
198
CONFIG Commands
Configuring Port Authentication. You can use the following
command to specify how your Cayman Gateway should respond
when it receives an authentication request from a remote peer.
The settings for port authentication on the local Cayman Gateway must match the authentication that is expected by the
remote peer. For example, if the remote peer requires CHAP
authentication and has a name and CHAP secret for the Cayman Gateway, you must enable CHAP and specify the same
name and secret on the Cayman Gateway before the link can be
established.
set PPP module [vccn] port-authentication
option [ off | on | pap-only | chap-only ]
username:
password:
Specifying on turns both PAP and CHAP on, or you can select
PAP or CHAP. Specify the username and password when port
authentication is turned on (both CHAP and PAP, CHAP or PAP.)
The username argument is 1- 64 alphanumeric characters.
The information you enter must match the username configured
in the PPP peer's authentication database.
The password argument is 1-64 alphanumeric characters. The
information you enter must match the password used by the
PPP peer.
Authentication must be enabled before you can enter other
information.
If you turn port authentication off and peer authentication on,
the PPP software still uses the port authentication username
for authentication. As a result, the port authentication names
199
must be identical to the peer names for your Cayman Gateway
on the remote peer. If you do not configure a username, then
the authentication packets sent by the local peer will have
blank name values. This may cause authentication to fail for
some PPP implementations.
Command Line Interface Preference Settings
You can set command line interface preferences to customize
your environment.
set preference verbose { on | off }
set define verbose { on | off }
Specifies whether you want command help and prompting information displayed. By default, the command line interface verbose preference is turned off. If you turn it on, the command
line interface displays help for a node when you navigate to that
node.
set preference more lines
set define more lines
Specifies how many lines of information you want the command
line interface to display at one time. The lines argument specifies the number of lines you want to see at one time. The range
is 1-65535. By default, the command line interface shows you
16 lines of text before displaying the prompt: More …[y|n] ?.
If you enter 100 for the lines argument, the command line
interface displays information as an uninterrupted stream
(which is useful for capturing information to a text file).
200
CONFIG Commands
Port Renumbering Settings
If you use NAT pinholes to forward HTTP or telnet traffic through
your Cayman Gateway to an internal host, you must change the
port numbers the Cayman Gateway uses for its own configuration traffic. For example, if you set up a NAT pinhole to forward
network traffic on Port 80 (HTTP) to another host, you would
have to tell the Cayman Gateway to listen for configuration connection requests on a port number other than 80, such as
6080.
After you have changed the port numbers the Cayman Gateway
uses for its configuration traffic, you must use those port numbers instead of the standard numbers when configuring the Cayman Gateway. For example, if you move the router's Web
service to port “6080” on a box with a DNS name of “superbox”, you would enter the URL http://superbox:6080 in a Web
browser to open the Cayman Gateway graphical user interface.
Similarly, you would have to configure your telnet application to
use the appropriate port when opening a configuration connection to your Cayman Gateway.
set servers web-http [ 0 - 65534 ]
Specifies the port number for HTTP (web) communication with
the Cayman Gateway. Because port numbers in the range 01024 are used by other protocols, you should use numbers in
the range 2000-65534 when assigning new port numbers to
the Cayman Gateway web configuration interface. A setting of 0
(zero) will turn the server off.
set servers telnet-tcp [ 0 - 65534 ]
Specifies the port number for telnet (CLI) communication with
the Cayman Gateway. Because port numbers in the range 01024 are used by other protocols, you should use numbers in
201
the range 2000-65534 when assigning new port numbers to
the Cayman Gateway telnet configuration interface. A setting of
0 (zero) will turn the server off.
Security Settings
Security settings include the Firewall and IPSec parameters. All
of the security functionality is keyed.
Firewall Settings (for BreakWater Firewall)
set security firewall option [ ClearSailing | SilentRunning |
LANdLocked ]
The 3 settings for BreakWater are discussed in detail on page
page 109.
SNMP Settings
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets a network administrator monitor problems on a network by retrieving
settings on remote network devices. The network administrator
typically runs an SNMP management station program on a local
host to obtain information from an SNMP agent such as the
Cayman Gateway.
set snmp community read name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated
with the Cayman Gateway. By default, the Cayman Gateway is
associated with the public community. You can associate as
many as 16 communities with the Cayman Gateway.
202
CONFIG Commands
set snmp community trap name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated
with the Cayman Gateway.
set snmp trap ip-traps ip-address [ community
community-name ]
Identifies the destination for SNMP trap messages. The ipaddress argument is the IP address of the host acting as an
SNMP console. The optional community community-name
identifies the name of the Cayman Gateway community, which
is included in the trap message the device sends to the management console. This name, which is not used for authentication, does not have to match a predefined community name.
set snmp sysgroup contact contact_info
Identifies the system contact, such as the name, phone number, beeper number, or email address of the person responsible for the Cayman Gateway. You can enter up to 256
characters for the contact_info argument. You must put the
contact_info argument in double-quotes if it contains
embedded spaces.
set snmp sysgroup location location_info
Identifies the location, such as the building, floor, or room number, of the Cayman Gateway. You can enter up to 256 characters for the location_info argument. You must put the
location_info argument in double-quotes if it contains
embedded spaces.
203
System Settings
You can configure system settings to assign a name to your
Cayman Gateway and to specify what types of messages you
want the diagnostic log to record.
set system name name
Specifies the name of your Cayman Gateway. Each Cayman
Gateway is assigned a name as part of its factory initialization.
The default name for a Cayman Gateway consists of the word
“Cayman-XX” and the serial number of the device; for example,
Cayman-2E810700. A system name can be 1-64 characters
long. Once you have assigned a name to your Cayman Gateway,
you can enter that name in the Address text field of your browser
to open a connection to your Cayman Gateway.
☛
NOTE:
Some broadband cable-oriented Service Providers
use the System Name as an important identification
and support parameter. If your Gateway is part of
this type of network, do NOT alter the System Name
unless specifically instructed by your Service Provider.
set system diagnostic-level
{ off | low | medium | alerts | failures }
Specifies the types of log messages you want the Cayman
Gateway to record. All messages with a level equal to or greater
than the level you specify are recorded. For example, if you
specify set system diagnostic-level medium, the diagnostic log
will retain medium-level informational messages, alerts, and
failure messages. Specifying off turns off logging.
204
CONFIG Commands
Use the following guidelines:
• low - Low-level informational messages or greater; includes
trivial status messages.
• medium - Medium-level informational messages or greater;
includes status messages that can help monitor network
traffic.
• alerts - Warnings or greater; includes recoverable error
conditions and useful operator information.
• failures - Failures; includes messages describing error
conditions that may not be recoverable.
set system password { admin | user }
Specifies the administrator or user password for a Cayman
Gateway. When you enter the set system password command, you are prompted to enter the old password (if any) and
new password. You are prompted to repeat the new password
to verify that you entered it correctly the first time. To prevent
anyone from observing the password you enter, characters in
the old and new passwords are not displayed as you type them.
A password can be as many as eight characters. Passwords are
case-sensitive.
Passwords go into effect immediately. You do not have to
restart the Cayman Gateway for the password to take effect.
Assigning an administrator or user password to a Cayman Gateway does not affect communications through the device.
205
set system heartbeat { on | off }
protocol [ udp | tcp ]
port-client [ 1 - 65535 ]
ip-server ip_address
port-server [ 1 - 65535 ]
url-server ("server_name")
interval (00:00:00:20)
contact-email ("string@domain_name")
location ("string"):
The heartbeat setting is used in conjunction with the configuration server to broadcast contact and location information about
your Gateway. You can specify the protocol, port, IP-, port-, and
URL-server. The interval setting specifies the broadcast
update frequency. The contact-email setting is a quoteenclosed text string giving an email address for the Gateway’s
administrator. The location setting is a text string allowing
you to specify your geographical or other location, such as “Billerica, MA.”
set system ntp
option [ off | on ]:
server-address (0.0.0.0)
alt-server-address (""):
time-zone [ -12 - 12 ]
update-period (60) [ 1 - 65535 ]:
Specifies the NTP server address, time zone, and how often the
Gateway should check the time from the NTP server. You can
leave the NTP server set to 0.0.0.0 and it will use the server
addresses known by the Gateway to update the GMT time. NTP
time-zone of 0 is GMT time; options are -12 through 12 (+/- 1
hour increments from GMT time). The last setting is for specifying how often, in minutes, the Gateway should update the
clock.
206
CONFIG Commands
Syslog
set system syslog option [ off | on ]
Enables or disables system syslog feature. If syslog option is
on, the following commands are available:
set system syslog host-nameip [ ip_address | hostname ]
Specifies the syslog server’s address either in dotted decimal
format or as a DNS name up to 64 characters.
set system syslog log-facility [ local0 ... local7 ]
Sets the UNIX syslog Facility. Acceptable values are "local0"
through "local7"
set system syslog log-violations [ off | on ]
Specifies whether violations are logged or ignored.
set system syslog log-accepted [ off | on ]
Specifies whether acceptances are logged or ignored.
set system syslog log-attempts [ off | on ]
Specifies whether connection attempts are logged or ignored.
Wireless Settings (supported models)
set wireless option ( on | off )
Administratively enables or disables the wireless interface, if
available.
207
set wireless essid { network_name }
Specifies the wireless network id for the Gateway. A unique
essid is generated for each Gateway. You must set your wireless clients to connect to this exact id, which can be changed
to any 32-character string.
set wireless default-channel { 1...14 }
Specifies the wireless 2.4GHz subchannel on which the wireless Gateway will operate. For US operation, this is limited to
channels 1–11. Other countries vary; for example, Japan is
channel 14 only. The default channel in the US is 6. Channel
selection can have a significant impact on performance,
depending on other wireless activity in proximity to this AP.
Channel selection is not necessary at the clients; clients will
scan the available channels and look for AP’s using the same
essid as the client.
set wireless closed-system { on | off }
(if supported) When this setting is enabled, a client must know
the essid in order to connect or even see the wireless access
point. When disabled, a client may 'scan' for available wireless
access points and will see this one. Enable this setting for
greater security. The default is on.
set wireless wep option { off | on }
(if supported) WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a method of
encrypting data between the wireless Gateway and its clients. It
is strongly recommended to turn this on as it is the primary
way to protect your network and data from intruders. Note that
208
CONFIG Commands
40bit is the same as 64bit and will work with either type of wireless client. The default is off.
A single key is selected (see default-key) for encryption of outbound/transmitted packets. The WEP-enabled client must have
the identical key, of the same length, in the identical slot (1..4)
as the wireless Gateway, in order to successfully receive and
decrypt the packet. Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’ key
that it uses to encrypt its transmissions. In order for the wireless Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have
the identical key, of the same length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a wireless Gateway and its clients need only enter,
share, and use the first key.
set wireless wep exclude-unencrypted { on | off }
If disabled, this will allow non-WEP traffic through the wireless
Gateway, bypassing WEP security. It is recommended to leave
this enabled. The default is on.
set wireless wep default-keyid { 1...4 }
Specifies which WEP encryption key (of 4) the wireless Gateway
will use to transmit data. The client must have an identical
matching key, in the same numeric slot, in order to successfully
decode. Note that a client allows you to choose which of its
keys it will use to transmit. Therefore, you must have an identical key in the same numeric slot on the Gateway.
For simplicity, it is easiest to have both the Gateway and the client transmit with the same key. The default is 1.
209
set wireless wep encryption-key1-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
set wireless wep encryption-key2-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
set wireless wep encryption-key3-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
set wireless wep encryption-key4-length
{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}
Selects the length of each encryption key. 40bit encryption is
equivalent to 64bit encryption. The longer the key, the stronger
the encryption and the more difficult it is to break the encryption.
set wireless wep encryption-key1 { hexadecimal digits }
set wireless wep encryption-key2 { hexadecimal digits }
set wireless wep encryption-key3 { hexadecimal digits }
set wireless wep encryption-key4 { hexadecimal digits }
The encryption keys. Enter keys using hexadecimal digits. For
40/64bit encryption, you need 10 digits; 26 digits for 128bit,
and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexadecimal characters are
0..9, a..f.
Example 40bit key: 02468ACE02.
Example 128bit key: 0123456789ABCDEF0123456789.
Example 256bit key:
592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F21A09C.
You must set at least one of these keys, indicated by the
default-keyid.

PFS-DH. Perfect Forward Secrecy Diffie Hellman Group. PFS
forces a DH negotiation during Phase II of IKE-IPSec SA
exchange. You can disable this or select a DH group 1, 2, or 5.
PFS is a security principle that ensures that any single key
being compromised will permit access to only data protected by
that single key. In PFS, the key used to protect transmission of
data must not be used to derive any additional keys. If the key
was derived from some other keying material, that material
must not be used to derive any more keys.

encryption type. This encryption algorithm will be used to
encrypt each data packet. SA Encryption Type values supported
include DES, 3DES, CAST and Blowfish.
SA Hash Type. SA Hash Type refers to the Authentication
Hash algorithm used during SA negotiation. Values supported
include MD5 SHA1. N/A will display if NONE is chose for Auth
Protocol.
Security Association. From the IPSEC point of view, an SA is
a data structure that describes which transformation is to be
applied to a datagram and how. The SA specifies:

protocol identifier, identify each SA. An SPI is assigned to an SA
when the SA is negotiated. The SA can be referred to by using
an SPI in AH and ESP transformations. SA is unidirectional. SAs
are commonly setup as bundles, because typically two SAs are
required for communications. SA management is always done
on bundles (setup, delete, relay).

encryption and authentication algorithm and key. The SPI indicates to the remote firewall the algorithm and key being used to
227
encrypt and authenticate a packet. It should be a unique number greater than 255.
STATEFUL. The Cayman Gateway monitors and maintains the
state of any network transaction. In terms of network requestand-reply, state consists of the source IP address, destination
IP address, communication ports, and data sequence. The Cayman Gateway processes the stream of a network conversation,
rather than just individual packets. It verifies that packets are
sent from and received by the proper IP addresses along the
proper communication ports in the correct order and that no
imposter packets interrupt the packet flow. Packet filtering monitors only the ports involved, while the Cayman Gateway analyzes the continuous conversation stream, preventing session
hijacking and denial of service attacks.
static route. Route entered manually in a routing table.
subnet mask. A 32-bit address mask that identifies which bits
of an IP address represent network address information and
which bits represent node identifier information.

which permit this device to be directly connected to the telephone
network. Standardized jacks are used for these connections. This
equipment should not be used on party lines or coin phones.
2.
If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing harm to the
telephone network; this device should be disconnected until the source
of the problem can be determined and until repair has been made. If
this is not done, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect
service.
3.
The telephone company may make changes in its technical operations
and procedures; if such changes affect the compatibility or use of this
device, the telephone company is required to give adequate notice of
the changes. You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the
FCC.
4.
If the telephone company requests information on what equipment is
connected to their lines, inform them of:
a. The telephone number to which this unit is connected.
b. The ringer equivalence number. [0.XB]
c. The USOC jack required. [RJ11C]
d. The FCC Registration Number. [XXXUSA-XXXXX-XX-E]
Items (b) and (d) are indicated on the label. The Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) is used to determine how many devices can be
connected to your telephone line. In most areas, the sum of the REN's
of all devices on any one line should not exceed five (5.0). If too many
devices are attached, they may not ring properly.
FCC Statements
a) This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the
requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment is a
label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the
format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to
the telephone company.
