Safety of Information Technology Equipment.
Read the installation instructions carefully before using the device.
Keep the device away from children, especially small children.
The device must not be installed or operated outdoors or at damp locations.
Do not operate the device if the connecting leads or the device itself are damaged.
External power supply: Use only an external power supply which complies with IEC/EN60950
chapter 2.5 “Limited power sources” and UL1310 / NEC Class 2 respectively. The output voltage of
the external power supply must not exceed 30VDC. The output of the external power supply must
be short-circuit proof.
Warning
The power supply unit to supply the SINAUT MD740-1 must comply with NEC Class 2 circuits as
outlined in the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70) only
When connecting to a battery or accumulator, make sure that an all-pole circuit-breaker (main
battery switch) with sufficient selectivity and a fuse with sufficient selectivity are provided between
the device and the battery or accumulator.
Please pay regard to section Technical Data of the installation manual, as well as the installation
and utilisation regulations of the respective manufacturers of the power supply, the battery or the
accumulator.
Digital gate input: Make sure that the specified input voltage range is observed. Please pay regard
to sections Connecting the device and Technical Data of this documentation.
Digital gate output: Switching voltage and switching current must not exceed the specified
maximum values. Please pay regard to sections Connecting the device and Technical Data of this
documentation.
SIM card: To install the SIM card the device must be opened. Before opening the device,
disconnect it from the supply voltage. Static charges can damage the device when it is open.
Discharge the electric static of your body before opening the device. To do so, touch an earthed
surface, e.g. the metal casing of the switch cabinet. Please pay regard to section Inserting or
changing the SIM card of the installation manual.
Handling cables: Never pull a cable connector out of a socket by its cable, but pull on the
connector itself. Cable connectors with screw fasteners (D-Sub) must always be screwed on tightly.
Do not lay the cable over sharp corners and edges without edge protection. If necessary, provide
sufficient strain relief for the cables.
For safety reasons, make sure that the bending radius of the cables is observed.
Failure to observe the bending radius of the antenna cable results in the deterioration of the
system's transmission and reception properties. The minimum bending radius static must not fall
below 5 times the cable diameter and dynamic below 15 times the cable diameter.
Radio device: Never use the device in places where the operation of radio devices is prohibited.
The device contains a radio transmitter which could in certain circumstances impair the functionality

Introduction
1.1
To be able to use the SINAUT MD740-1...
you require...
1.2
•
a subscriber contract with a GSM network operator (e.g. TD1,
Vodafone, E-Plus, O2) that supports GPRS
•
release of the GPRS for the user in question by the network
operator
IP address of the remote site
In order that a SINAUT MD740-1 can actively establish a VPN connection the remote
site must have a fixed IP address (an IP address consists of a maximum of 4 numbers,
separated by dots, which can each have up to three digits, e.g. 255.122.201.005). With
many Internet Service Providers (ISPs), however, the IP addresses are assigned
dynamically, i.e. the IP addresses of the computers or networks which have access to
the Internet change. There are 3 ways of obtaining a fixed IP address:
Fixed IP address via
dedicated line to
GPRS
The communication partner is connected to the GPRS network
via a leased dedicated line. In this case it has normally been
assigned a fixed IP address by the network operator.
Fixed IP address via
Internet service
provider
The communication partner can be accessed via the Internet and
has been assigned a fixed IP address by the Internet service
provider (the address can be applied for from some Internet
service providers).
Fixed IP address via
DynDNS service
To solve the problem of dynamic IP address assignment,
DynDNS services can be used. With this kind of service, the
SINAUT MD740-1, for example, or the remote computer,
regardless of the dynamic IP address it currently possesses, is
accessible via a fixed domain name. Each time the IP address
changes, the SINAUT MD740-1 or the remote computer reports
the new IP address to the DynDNS server, so that the current IP
address is always assigned to the domain name on the DNS
server - see glossary, page 95.
The use of a DynDNS service requires a contract with the
provider concerned, e.g. DynDNS.org or DNS4BIZ.com.

Firewall menu
The SINAUT MD740-1 comes with a Stateful Packet Inspection Firewall. The connection
data of an active connection are collected in a database (connection tracking). This
means that rules are only to be defined for one direction, while data from the other
direction of a connection, and only these, are allowed through automatically. A side
effect of this is that existing connections are not interrupted as a result of
reconfiguration, even if a corresponding new connection should no longer be
established.
Default firewall setting:
• All incoming connections are rejected (except VPN).
• The data packets of all outgoing connections are rejected (except VPN and except
connections to the integrated website which provides information about devices and
connection data).
! VPN connections are not subject to the firewall rules determined under this menu
item. You can determine firewall rules for each individual VPN connection under the
menu VPN # Connections.
! If several firewall rules have been set, they are scanned in the order of the entries
from top to bottom until a suitable rule is found. This rule is then applied. Should
there also be rules further down in the list which would be also suitable, they are
ignored.
Firewall # Incoming
This lists the fixed firewall rules. These apply to incoming data
connections which have been initiated externally.
• If no rule has been set, all incoming connections (except VPN)
are rejected (= default setting).

intended for the external IP address (or one of the external IP
addresses) of the SINAUT MD740-1 and for a particular port of the
SINAUT MD740-1 are rewritten in such a way that they are
forwarded to the internal network to a particular computer and to a
particular port of this computer. That means that the IP address
and port number in the headers of incoming data packets are
changed.
This method is also called Destination NAT.

Firewall # NAT
This lists the fixed rules for NAT (Network Address Translation) and
allows rules to be set or deleted.
For outgoing data packets the device can translate the given
sender IP addresses from its internal network to its own external
address, a technique known as NAT (Network Address
Translation).
This method is used when the internal addresses cannot or should
not be routed, e.g. because a private address range such as
192.168.x.x or the internal network structure is to be hidden.
This method is also called IP Masquerading.
! When using several static IP addresses for the external
interface, the first IP address in the list is always used for IP
Masquerading.
Default setting: NAT does not take place.

VPN menu
The general prerequisite for a VPN connection is that the IP addresses of the VPN
partners are known and accessible. See IP address of the remote site, page 9.
•
In order for an IPSec connection to be established successfully the VPN remote site
must support IPsec with the following configuration:
- Authentication via Pre-Shared Key (PSK) or X.509 certificates
- ESP
- Diffie-Hellman groups 2 or 5
- DES, 3DES or AES encryption
- MD5 or SHA-1 Hash algorithms
- Tunnel or transport mode
- Quick mode
- Main mode
- SA Lifetime (1 second to 24 hours)
If the remote site is a computer running under Windows 2000, the Microsoft Windows
2000 High Encryption Pack or at least Service Pack 2 must be installed.
•
If the remote site is behind a NAT router it must support NAT-T. Alternatively, the
NAT router must recognise the IPsec protocol (IPsec/VPN Passthrough). In both
cases, only IPsec tunnel connections are possible for technical reasons.

If the SINAUT MD740-1 is to initiate and establish the
connection actively with the remote site, then enter the
remote site's IP address here. Instead of an IP address you
can also enter a hostname (i.e. domain name in URL format
in the form www.xyz.de).
If the VPN gateway of the remote site does not have a fixed
and known address, a fixed and known address can
nevertheless be simulated by using the DynDNS service. See
IP address of the remote site, page 9.
• If the SINAUT MD740-1 is to be ready to accept the
connection actively initiated and established by a remote site
with any IP address to the local SINAUT MD740-1, then
enter: %any
Then a remote site which is assigned its own IP address (by
the Internet service provider) dynamically, i.e. has a changing
IP address, can "call" the local SINAUT MD740-1.
If only one particular remote site with a fixed IP address
establishes the connection, you can enter this address to be
on the safe side.
! In order for the SINAUT MD740-1 to accept a connection
actively initiated and established by a remote site, the
SINAUT MD740-1 requires a fixed IP address from the
provider or by using a DynDNS service.
In many GSM/GPRS networks it is not possible to set up
connections initiated from a remote site to the GPRS
device (SINAUT MD740-1).

Connection type
There are four options:
• Tunnel (network $ # network)
• Transport (host $ # host)
• Transport (L2TP Microsoft Windows)
• Transport (L2TP SSH Sentinel)
Tunnel (network $ # network)
This connection type is suitable in every case and it is also
the safest. In this mode the IP datagrams to be transferred
are completely encrypted and sent with a new header to the
remote site's VPN gateway, the "end of the tunnel". There
the transferred datagrams are decrypted and the original
datagrams retrieved from them. These can then be sent to
the destination computer.
Transport (host $ # host)
With this connection type only the data in the IP packets are
encrypted. The IP header information is not encrypted.
Transport (L2TP Microsoft Windows)
If this connection is enabled on the remote computer, you
should also set the SINAUT MD740-1 to Transport (L2TP
Microsoft Windows). The SINAUT MD740-1 will then work
accordingly. The L2TP/PPP protocol creates a tunnel within
the IPsec Transport connection. The locally connected L2TP
computer is assigned its IP address dynamically by the
SINAUT MD740-1.
If you select the connection type Transport (L2TP Microsoft
Windows), set Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) to No (see
below). Also enable the L2TP server.
! As soon as the IPsec/L2TP connection is started under
Windows, a dialogue box appears, asking for the user
name and login. You can enter anything here because
authentication has already taken place via the X.509
certificates, so that the SINAUT MD740-1 ignores these
entries.

Transport (L2TP SSH Sentinel)
If this connection is enabled on the remote computer, you
should also set the SINAUT MD740-1 to Transport (L2TP
SSH Sentinel). The SINAUT MD740-1 will then work
accordingly. The L2TP/PPP protocol creates a tunnel within
the IPsec Transport connection. The locally connected L2TP
computer is assigned its IP address dynamically by the
SINAUT MD740-1. Also enable the L2TP server.
Connection startup
There are 2 possibilities:
• Start the connection to the remote site
• Wait for the remote site
Start the connection to the remote site
In this case the local SINAUT MD740-1 initiates the
connection to the remote site. The fixed IP address of the
remote site or its domain name must be entered in the
Remote site's VPN gateway address field (see above).
Wait for the remote site
In this case the local SINAUT MD740-1 is ready to accept
the connection actively initiated and established by a remote
site to the local SINAUT MD740-1. %any can be entered in
the Remote site's VPN gateway address field (see above).
If only one particular remote site with a fixed IP address
establishes the connection, enter its IP address or host
name to be on the safe side.
In order for a connection to the
SINAUT MD740-1 to be established, the
SINAUT MD740-1 requires a fixed IP address from the

In many GSM/GPRS networks it is not possible to set
up connections initiated from a remote site to the GPRS
device (SINAUT MD740-1).

Configuration
X.509 Certificate
This method is supported by most newer IPSec
implementations. The SINAUT MD740-1 encrypts the
authentication datagrams that it sends to the remote site the "end of the tunnel" - with the remote site's public key (file
name *.cer or *.pem). (You received this *.cer or *.pem file
from the operator of the remote site, e.g. on a disk or by email).
To make this public key available to the
SINAUT MD740-1, proceed as follows:
Prerequisite:
You have stored the *.cer or *.pem file on the locally
connected computer.
1. Click on Configure.
Consequence: The VPN > Connections > Connection
xyz > X.509 Certificate screen appears. ("xyz" is the
name of the connection concerned.)
2. Click on Browse... and select the file.
3. Click on Import.
After importing, the content of the new certificate is
displayed – see following illustration. You will find an
explanation of the displayed information in section VPN
# Machine Certificate, page 48.
Pre-Shared Secret Key (PSK)
This method is supported mainly by older IPsec
implementations. The SINAUT MD740-1 encrypts the
datagrams which it sends to the remote site – the "end of
the tunnel" – with an agreed sequence of characters.
To make this agreed key available to the
SINAUT MD740-1, proceed as follows:
1. Click on Configure.

Consequence: the screen illustrated below appears:
2. Enter the agreed sequence of characters in the field PreShared Secret Key (PSK). To obtain security
comparable to 3DES, the sequence of characters should
consists of approx. 30 randomly selected lower and
upper case characters and numerals.
3. Click on Back.
! Pre-Shared Secret Key cannot be used with dynamic
(%any) IP addresses; only fixed IP addresses or hostnames
on both sides are supported.
ISAKMP SA (Key Exchange)
Encryption algorithm
! Agree with the administrator of the remote site as to
which encryption method is to be used.
3DES-168 is the most commonly used method and is
therefore preset as the standard.
Basically, the following applies: the more bits an encryption
algorithm has – indicated by the number shown – the more
secure it is. The relatively new AES-256 method is therefore
considered to be the safest, but it is not yet so widespread.
The longer the key, the more time-consuming the encryption
process. This aspect is of no consequence to the
SINAUT MD740-1 because it works with hardware-based
encryption technology. Nevertheless, this aspect could be
significant for the remote site.
The selectable algorithm marked "Zero" contains no
encryption at all.
Checksum algorithm/Hash
Leave the setting on All algorithms. Then it makes no
difference whether the remote site works with MD5 or
SHA-1.
IPsec SA (data exchange)

for data exchange is determined here. This may differ from
that of the Key Exchange, but not necessarily.
Encryption algorithm
See above.
Checksum algorithm/Hash
See above.
Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS)
A method for the additional improvement of security during
data transfer. With IPsec, the keys for data exchange are
renewed at certain intervals. With PFS, new random
numbers are negotiated with the remote site instead of
deriving them from previously agreed random numbers.
Only if the remote site supports PFS, select Yes.
When selecting the connection type Transport (L2TP
Microsoft Windows) set Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) to
No.

Local network address
The appropriate netmask
With these two entries you give the address of the client
(network or computer) that is connected locally to the
SINAUT MD740-1 direct and which is protected by the das
SINAUT MD740-1. This address defines the local endpoint
of the connection.
Example:
If the computer that you are also using for the configuration
of the device is connected to the SINAUT MD740-1, then
these data could be:
Local network address: 192.168.1.1
The appropriate netmask: 255.255.255.0

Remote network address
The appropriate netmask
With these two entries you give the address of the network in
which the remote communication partner is located. This
address can also be that of a computer which is connected
direct to the VPN gateway.
Firewall incoming, Firewall outgoing
While the settings performed under the menu item Firewall
apply only to non-VPN connections (see above under Firewall
# Incoming, page 27), the settings here apply only to the VPN
connection defined here. In practical terms, that means: if you
have defined several VPN connections, you can restrict access
to each one from the outside or from the inside. Attempts to
bypass the restrictions can be recorded in the log.
According to the default setting the VPN firewall is set so
that everything is permitted for this VPN connection.
However, the extended firewall settings which are defined
and explained above still apply to each individual VPN
connection, independent of each other (see Firewall #
Extended Settings, page 33).
If several firewall rules have been set, they are scanned in
the order of the entries from top to bottom until a suitable
rule is found. This rule is then applied. Should there also
be rules further down in the list which would be also
suitable, they are ignored.
To set or delete a firewall rule, proceed exactly as
described above (see Firewall # Incoming, page 27 and
Firewall # Outgoing, page 29.
As there, you can make the following possible entries:
Protocol:
All means: TCP, UDP, ICMP and other IP protocols.
IP address:
0.0.0.0/0 means all addresses. To denote a range, use
CIDR syntax - see CIDR (Classless InterDomain Routing),
page 79.

Services # DNS
If the SINAUT MD740-1 is to establish a connection to a remote
site (e.g. VPN gateway or NTP server), it must know the die IP
address of the remote site in question. If it is given the address in
the form of a domain address (i.e. www.abc.xyz.de), then the
device must consult a Domain Name Server (DNS) to see which IP
address is behind the domain address.
You can configure locally connected clients in such a way that they
can use the SINAUT MD740-1 to resolve hostnames into IP
addresses. See IP configuration with Windows clients, page 59.
Hostname mode
With Hostname Modus and Hostname you can give the
SINAUT MD740-1 a name. This name is then displayed, e.g.
when logging in by SSH. Giving names simplifies the
administration of several SINAUT MD740-1s.

(Standard) The name entered in the field Hostname is set as
the name for the SINAUT MD740-1.
Provider defined (e.g. via DHCP)
If the external setting of the hostname is enabled, e.g. as with

If the address of the remote VPN Gateway has been given to
the SINAUT MD740-1 as a hostname (see VPN # Connections,
page 37), and if this Domain Name has been issued by a
DynDNS service, then the SINAUT MD740-1 can check
regularly whether any changes have been made to the DynDNS
concerned. If so, the VPN connection is established to the new
IP address.
Refresh Interval (sec)
Standard: 300 (sec)
Services # DynDNS Registration
To establish VPN connections at least the IP address of one of the
partners must be known so that they can make contact with each
other. This condition is not fulfilled if both participants are assigned
their IP addresses dynamically by their Internet service providers.
In this case, however, a DynDNS service such as DynDNS.org or
DNS4BIZ.com can help. With a DynDNS service the currently valid
IP address is registered under a fixed name. See also IP address
of the remote site, page 9
Once you are registered with a DynDNS service supported by the
SINAUT MD740-1 you can make the corresponding entries in this
dialogue box.
Register this TAINY at a DynDNS Service? Yes / No
Select Yes if you are registered with a DynDNS provider and
the SINAUT MD740-1 is to use the service. Then the
SINAUT MD740-1 reports the current IP address assigned to its
own Internet connection by the Internet service provider to the

Client IP address
The static IP that is to be assigned to the client's MAC
address.
The static assignments take priority over the dynamic IP
address pool.
Static assignments must not overlap with the dynamic IP
address pool.
An IP must not be used in several static assignments,
otherwise this IP will be assigned to several MAC
addresses.
Only one DHCP server per subnet must be used.
When you start the DHCP server of the
SINAUT MD740-1 you must configure the locally connected
clients in such a way that they receive their IP addresses
automatically (see below).

(UTC). If NTP time synchronization is not yet enabled (see
below) and Time stamps in file system are disabled, the clock
begins with 1 January 2000.
Current system time (local)
If the possibly deviating current local time is to be displayed you
must make the corresponding entry under Time zone in
POSIX.1 Notation... (see below).
NTP State
Displays the current NTP state
Enable NTP time synchronization: Yes / No
As soon as the NTP is enabled the SINAUT MD740-1 sources
the time from the Internet and displays it as the current system
time. Synchronization may take a few seconds.
Only if this switch is set to Yes and at least 1 time server is
given under NTP servers to synchronize to (see below) is the
current system time provided.
NTP servers to synchronize to
NTP Server
Here you can enter one or more NTP servers from which the
SINAUT MD740-1 is to source the current time. If you enter
several time servers, the SINAUT MD740-1 automatically
connects to all of them to ascertain the current time.
The SINAUT MD740-1 also provides the connected computers
with the NTP time.
! Enter the IP addresses (instead of the hostnames) of the
required time servers.
Min. Poll / Max. Poll
Time synchronization takes place cyclically. Here you enter the
interval at which the poll is to take place (poll interval).
The NTP client selects the poll interval dynamically between the
two values. Make sure that the minimum value entered is
smaller than the maximum value.
Time zone in POSIX.1 notation...
If you do not want the current Greenwich Mean Time to be
displayed under Current system time, but the current local time
(= deviating from Greenwich Mean Time), then you must enter
here by how many hours your local time is ahead or behind.
Examples:
In Hamburg the time is 1 hour ahead of Greenwich Mean
Time. So you enter: CET-1

Services # Remote Logging
All log entries take place by default in the flash memory of the
SINAUT MD740-1. If the maximum memory space for these logs is
exhausted, the oldest log entries are automatically overwritten by
new ones.
It is possible to transfer the log entries to an external computer.
This is advisable if, for example, logging is to administered
centrally.

If all log entries are to be transferred to the external log server
(specified below), set this switch to Yes.
Log Server IP address
Enter the IP address of the log server to which the log entries
are to be transferred via UDP.
The log server must have a fixed and known IP address.
You must enter the IP address, not a hostname. Name
resolution is not supported here because otherwise the
breakdown of a DNS server could not be reported.

CIDR (Classless InterDomain Routing)
IP netmasks and CIDR are notations which aggregates several IP addresses to form
one address range. A range of consecutive addresses is treated as a network.
The CIDR scheme reduces, for example, the routing tables stored in routers by means
of a postfix in the IP address. With this postfix, a network and the networks lying below it
can be denoted in a summarized form. The method is described in RFC 1518.
To advise a range of IP addresses to the SINAUT MD740-1, e.g. when configuring the
firewall, it may be necessary to give the address space in CIDR syntax. The following
table shows the IP netmask on the left, with the corresponding CIDR syntax on the far
right.

Firmware update via the integrated FTP server
Firmware update via the integrated FTP server
The SINAUT MD740-1 has an integrated FTP server (FTP = File Transfer Protocol).
This can be used to load an update - if available - of the communication software into
the SINAUT MD740-1.
We recommend using an FTP program (downloadable as Freeware from the Internet) to
establish a connection with the FTP server of the SINAUT MD740-1.
To establish an FTP connection, proceed as follows:
Prerequisite:
The firmware file is located on the service PC
1. To make a connection to the FTP server of the
SINAUT MD740-1, proceed exactly as when accessing the Web
server
•
locally via the service interface - see page 83
•
locally via the application interface (10/100 BASE-T
connector) - see page 86
•
from a remote computer via the GPRS network (networkdependent) - see page 87.
2. Instead of a Web browser, start an FTP program.
Enter as follows
Address:

AES
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) has
been developing the AES encryption standard jointly with industrial
companies for years. This # symmetrical encryption is designed to
replace the previous DES standard. The AES standard specifies
three different key sizes with 128, 192 and 256 bits.
In 1997, the NIST launched the AES initiative and announced its
conditions for the algorithm. Of the encryption algorithms proposed,
the NIST short-listed five; the algorithms MARS, RC6, Rijndael,
Serpent and Twofish. In October 2000, the encryption algorithm
chosen was Rijndael.

Asymmetrical
encryption
In asymmetrical encryption, data are encrypted with one key and
decrypted with a second key. Both keys are suitable for encryption
and decryption. One of the keys is kept secret by its owner (Private
Key), the other is issued to the public (Public Key), i.e. possible
communication partners.
A message encrypted with a Public Key can only be decrypted and
read by the recipient who has the corresponding Private Key. A
message encrypted with the Private Key can be decrypted by any
recipient who has the corresponding Public Key. Encryption with
the Private Key shows that the message actually originates from
the owner of the corresponding Public Key. We therefore speak of
a digital signature.
Asymmetrical encryption methods such as RSA are, however, slow
and vulnerable to certain attacks, which is why they are often
combined with a symmetrical method (# symmetrical encryption).
On the other hand, concepts are also possible which avoid the
complex administration of symmetrical keys.
DynDNS provider Also Dynamic DNS provider. Each computer that is connected to
the Internet has an IP address (IP = Internet Protocol). An IP
address consists of 4 numbers, separated by dots, which can each
have up to three digits. If the computer is online using a telephone
line via modem, ISDN or ADSL, it is dynamically assigned an IP
address by the Internet service provider, i.e. the address changes
from one session to another. Even if the computer is online for 24
hours without interruptions (e.g. with a flat rate) the IP address is
changed from time to time.
If a local computer is to be accessible via the Internet it must have
an address which is known to the remote communication partner.
Only in this way can the communication partner establish a
connection to the local computer. However, if the address of the
local computer continually changes this is not possible, unless the
operator of the local computer has an account with a DynamicDNS
provider (DNS = Domain Name Server).
The operator can then determine a hostname with the provider at
which the computer is to be reached in the future, e.g.
www.xyz.abc.de. In addition, the DynamicDNS provider provides a
small program which has to be installed and executed in the
computer in question. In each Internet session of the local
computer this tool informs the DynamicDNS provider of the
computer's current IP address. The provider's Domain Name
Server registers the current Hostname / IP address allocation and
informs other Domain Name Servers on the Internet accordingly.
If a remote computer now wants to establish a connection to the
local computer which is registered with the DynamicDNS provider,
the remote computer uses the local computer's hostname as the

address. This establishes a connection to the responsible DNS
(Domain Name Server), where a scan is made for the IP address
which is currently allocated to this hostname. The IP address is
transferred back to the remote computer which now uses it as the
destination address. This now leads to exactly the desired local
computer.
Basically, all Internet addresses are based on this system: first, a
connection is established to the DNS in order to ascertain the IP
address assigned to this hostname. Once this has taken place, the
connection to the desired remote site, which can be any Internet
presence, is established with this "referenced" IP address.
TCP/IP
(Transmission
Control
Protocol/Internet
Protocol)
Network protocols which are used for the connection of two
computers in the Internet.
IP is the basic protocol.
UDP is based on IP and sends individual packets. These may
arrive at the recipient in a different order to that in which they were
sent, or they can even be lost.
TCP serves to protect the connection and, for example, ensures
that the data packets are forwarded in the correct order to the
application.
UDP and TCP, in addition to the IP addresses, include port
numbers between 1 and 65535, by means of which the different
services are distinguished.
UDP and TCP form the basis for a number of other protocols, e.g.
HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol), HTTPS (Secure Hyper Text
Transfer Protocol), SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), POP3
(Post Office Protocol, Version 3), DNS (Domain Name Service).
ICMP is based on IP and contains control messages.
SMTP is an e-mail protocol based on TCP.
IKE is an IPsec protocol based on UDP.
ESP is an IPsec protocol based on IP.
On a Windows PC the WINSOCK.DLL (or WSOCK32.DLL) takes
over the handling of both these protocols.
(# datagram)
Service Provider
A company or institution which provides users with access to the
Internet or an online service.

Protocol,
transmission
protocol
Devices which communicate with one another must use the same
rules for this communication. They must "speak the same
language". Such rules and standards are collectively referred to as
a protocol or transmission protocol. Frequently used protocols are,
for example, IP, TCP, PPP, HTTP or SMTP. TCP/IP is the generic
term for all protocols based on IP.
Client / Server
In a client/server environment a server is a program or computer
which receives and answers queries from the client program or
client computer.
In data communication the term client is also used for the computer
which establishes a connection to a server (or host), i.e. the client
is the calling computer and the server (or host) is the called
computer.
PPPoE
Acronym for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. Based on the
standards PPP and Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification to connect
users by Ethernet to the Internet via a shared broadband medium
such as DSL, Wireless LAN or cable modem.
PPTP
Acronym for Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol. This protocol was
developed by Microsoft, U.S. Robotics and others to transmit data
securely between two VPN nodes (# VPN) via a public network.
VPN (Virtual
Private Network)
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) connects several separate private
networks (subnets) via a public network, e.g. the Internet, to form a
shared network. Confidentiality and authenticity are ensured by
using cryptographic protocols. A VPN therefore provides an
inexpensive alternative to dedicated lines when it comes to setting
up a supraregional corporate network.

DES / 3DES
The symmetrical encryption algorithm (# symmetrical encryption)
DES, originally developed by IBM and checked by the NSA, was
determined in 1977 by the American National Bureau of Standards,
the predecessor of today's National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST), as the standard for American government
institutions.
As this was the first standardized encryption algorithm of all, it
quickly established itself in industry and hence outside the USA.
DES works with a key length of 56 bits, which is no longer
considered secure due to the increase in computing power since
1977.
3DES is a variant of DES. It works with 3-times larger keys, i.e. 168
bits long. It is still considered secure today and is, among other
things, also part of the IPsec standard.
Private Key, PublicIn asymmetrical encryption algorithms 2 keys are used: a Private
key; Certification Key and a Public Key. The public key serves to encrypt data and
the private key to decrypt them.
(X.509)
The public key is provided by the future recipient of the data to
those who will send the data to him in encrypted form. The private
key is possessed only by the recipient and serves to decrypt the
received data.
Certification:
So that the user of the public key (for encryption) can be certain
that the public key conveyed to him really does come from the
entity that is to receive the data to be sent, certification can be
used: the verification of the authenticity of the public key and the
consequent link between the identity of the sender and his key is
performed by a Certification Authority or CA. This is done according
to the rules of the CA, for example by the sender being required to
appear in person. Following successful inspection the CA signed
the sender's public key with its (digital) signature. A certificate is
created.
An X.509 certificate makes a connection between an identity in the
form of an 'X.500 Distinguished Name' (DN) and a public key. This
connection is authenticated by the digital signature of an X.509
Certification Authority (CA). The signature - an encryption with the
signature key - can be checked with the private key issued by the
CA to the certificate holder.

NAT (Network
Address
Translation)
In Network Address Translation (NAT) - often also referred to as IP
Masquerading - an entire network is "hidden" behind a single
device, the NAT router. This device is usually a router. The internal
computers in the local network remain hidden with their IP
addresses when they communicate to the outside via the NAT
router. For the external communication partners only the NAT
router with its own IP address appears.
However, in order for internal computers to be able to communicate
direct with external computers (on the Internet) the NAT router
must change the IP datagrams passing from internal computers to
the outside and from the outside to an internal computer.
If an IP datagram is sent from the internal network to the outside
the NAT router changes the datagram's IP and TCP headers. It
replaces the source IP address and the source port with its own
official IP address and its own, previously unused port. To this end
it creates a table showing the correlation between the original
values and the new ones.
When receiving a reply datagram the NAT router recognises by
means of the destination port specified that the datagram is actually
intended for an internal computer. Using the table the NAT box
exchanges the destination IP address and the destination port and
forwards the datagram to the internal network.
Datagram
In the TCP/IP transfer protocol data are sent in the form of data
packets or datagrams. An IP datagram is structured as follows:
IP header
TCP/UDP
header
Data
(payload)
The IP header contains:
- the IP address of the sender (source IP address)
- the IP address of the recipient (destination IP address)
- the protocol number of the protocol of the next highest
protocol layer (according to the OSI layer model)
- the IP header checksum to check the integrity of the header
upon reception.
The TCP/UDP header contains the following information:
- the port of the sender (source port)
- the port of the recipient (destination port)
- a checksum for the TCP header and some information from
the IP header (e.g. source and destination IP address)

IPSec
IP Security (IPSec) is a standard that makes it possible to ensure
the authenticity of the sender, the confidentiality and the integrity of
the data in IP datagrams by means of encryption. The components
of IPSec are the Authentication Header (AH), the Encapsulating
Security Payload (ESP), the Security Association (SA), the Security
Parameter Index (SPI) and the Internet Key Exchange (IKE).
When communication starts the computers involved clarify the
method used and its implications, e.g. Transport Mode or Tunnel
Mode.
In Transport Mode an IPSec header is inserted into each IP
datagram between the IP header and the TCP or UDP header. As
the IP header is not changed this mode is suitable only for a hostto-host connection.
In Tunnel Mode an IPSec header and a new IP header are inserted
in front of the entire IP datagram. This means that the original
datagram is contained, encrypted as a whole, in the payload of the
new datagram.
The Tunnel Mode is used in the VPN: the devices at the tunnel
ends perform the encryption and decryption of the datagrams, while
the datagrams themselves remain completely protected as they
pass through the tunnel, i.e. during transmission via a public
network.
Spoofing, antispoofing
In Internet terminology, spoofing means giving a false address. By
giving a false Internet address someone is pretending to be an
authorised user.
Anti-spoofing refers to mechanisms designed to detect or prevent
spoofing.
Symmetrical
encryption
With symmetrical encryption the data are encrypted and decrypted
using the same key. Examples of symmetrical encryption
algorithms are DES and AES. These are fast, but require complex
administration as the number of users increases.
Port number
The port number field is a 2-byte field in UDP and TCP headers.
Assigning port numbers serves to identify the different data streams
handled simultaneously by UDP/TCP. The entire data exchange
between the UDP/TCP and the application processes takes place
via these port numbers. The assignment of port numbers to
application processes takes place dynamically and randomly. Fixed
port number are assigned to certain frequently used application
processes. These are known as assigned numbers.

IP address
Each host or router on the Internet / Intranet has a unique IP
address (IP = Internet Protocol). The IP address is 32 bits (= 4
bytes) long and is written as 4 numbers (each in the region from 0
to 255) separated by dots.
An IP address consists of 2 parts: the network address and the
host address.
Network
address
Host address
All hosts in a network have the same network address, but different
host addresses. Depending on the size of the network concerned a distinction is made between Class A, B and C networks - the two
parts of the address can differ in length:
1st byte 2nd byte 3rd byte 4th byte
Class A
Net. addr.
Class B
Host addr.
Network addr.
Class C
Host addr.
Network addr.
Host addr.
Whether an IP address denotes a device in a Class A, B or C
network can be identified by the first byte in the IP address. The
following are fixed values:
Value of Bytes for the
Bytes for the host
1st byte network address
address
Class A
1-126
Class B
128-191
Class C
192-223
In terms of figures, there can only be a maximum of 126 Class A
networks in the world, with each of these networks encompassing a
maximum of 256 x 256 x 256 hosts (3 bytes address space). Class
B networks can occur 64 x 256 times and can each contain up to
65,536 hosts (2 bytes address space: 256 x 256). Class C
networks can occur 32 x 256 x 256 times and can each contain up
to 256 hosts (1 byte address space).
Subnet mask
Normally, a corporate network with access to the Internet is
officially assigned only one single IP address, e.g. 134.76.0.0. In
this address example it can be seen from the 1st byte that this
corporate network is a Class B network, i.e. the last 2 bytes can be
used freely for host addresses. In terms of figures, this results in
address space for 65,536 possible hosts (256 x 256).

Such a huge network makes little sense. It becomes necessary to
form subnets. The subnet mask serves this purpose. Like an IP
address, this a field 4 bytes long. The value 255 is assigned to
each of the bytes representing the network address. This serves
mainly to "borrow" a part from the host address area in order to use
it to address subnets. In a Class B network, for example, (2 bytes
for the network address, 2 bytes for the host address) the 3rd byte,
which is normally reserved for the host address, can now be used
for subnet addresses by applying the subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
In terms of figures, this means that 256 subnets can be created,
each with 256 hosts.
X.509 Certificate
A kind of "seal" which proves the authenticity of a Public Key (#
asymmetrical encryption) and appendant data.
So that the user of the public key for encryption can be certain that
the public key conveyed to him really does come from its issuer
and hence from the entity that is to receive the data to be sent,
certification can be used. This verification of the authenticity of the
public key and the consequent link between the identity of the
issuer and his key is performed by a Certification Authority or CA.
This is done according to the rules of the CA, for example by the
issuer of the public key being required to appear in person.
Following successful inspection the CA signs the public key with its
(digital) signature. A certificate is created.
An X.509(v3) certificate therefore contains a public key, information
about the key owner (given as Distinguished Name (DN)),
permitted designated uses, etc. and the signature of the CA.
The signature is created as follows: from the bit sequence of the
public key, the data on its owner and other data, the CA creates an
individual bit sequence which can be up to 160 bits long, the HASH
value. This is encrypted by the CA using its private key and added
to the certificate. Encryption with the CA's private key is proof of
authenticity, i.e. the encrypted HASH character sequence is the
digital signature of the CA. Should the data of the certificate be
changed without authorization, the HASH value is no longer correct
and the certificate then becomes worthless.
The HASH value is also known as the fingerprint. As it is encrypted
with the private key of the CA, anyone in possession of the
corresponding public key can decrypt the bit sequence and thus
check the authenticity of the fingerprint or signature in question.
Involving certification authorities means that not every key owner
needs to know the other one, but only the certification authority
used. The additional key information also simplifies the
administrability of the key.
X.509 certificates are employed, e.g. in e-mail encryption, using
S/MIME or IPsec.
