CHAPTER Getting Started 1.1 About Your WiMAX Device The WiMAX Device allows you to access the Internet by connecting to a WiMAX wireless network. You can configure firewall and content filtering as well as a host of other features. The browser-based user interface -- the Web Configurator -can be used to easily manage the device. See Chapter 11 on page 145 for a complete list of features for your model. 1.1.1 WiMAX Internet Access Connect your computer or network to the WiMAX Device for WiMAX Internet access. See the Quick Start Guide for instructions on hardware connections. In a wireless metropolitan area network (MAN), the WiMAX Device connects to a WiMAX base station (BS) for Internet access. The following diagram shows a notebook computer equipped with the WiMAX Device connecting to the Internet through a WiMAX base station (BS). Figure 1 Mobile Station and Base Station When the firewall is on, all incoming traffic from the Internet to your network is blocked unless it is initiated from your network. Use content filtering to block access to web sites with URLs containing keywords that you specify. You can define time periods and days during which content filtering is enabled and include or exclude particular computers on your network from content filtering. For example, you could block access to certain web sites. MAX208M Users Guide 17 Chapter 1 Getting Started 1.2 WiMAX Device Hardware Follow the instructions in the Quick Start Guide to make hardware connections. 1.2.1 LEDs The following figure shows the LEDs (lights) on the WiMAX Device. Figure 2 The WiMAX Devices LEDs STRENGTH INDICATORS POWER LED WIMAX LINK LED The following table describes your WiMAX Devices LEDs (from top to bottom). Table 2 The WiMAX Device LEDs behavior LED STATE DESCRIPTION Power Off The WiMAX Device is not receiving power.

MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 1 Getting Started Table 2 The WiMAX Device LEDs behavior LED STATE DESCRIPTION Signal Strength Indicator The Strength Indicator LEDs display the Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) of the wireless (WiMAX) connection. LEDs 1, 2, 3 on RSSI >= -69 dBm LEDs 1, 2 on RSSI: -70~-79 dBm LED 1 on RSSI: -80~-89 dBm 1.3 Good Habits for Device Management Do the following things regularly to make the WiMAX Device more secure and to manage the WiMAX Device more effectively. Change the password. Use a password thats not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters. Write down the password and put it in a safe place. Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the WiMAX Device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the WiMAX Device to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the WiMAX Device. You could simply restore your last configuration. MAX208M Users Guide 19 Chapter 1 Getting Started 20 MAX208M Users Guide CHAPTER The Web Configurator 2.1 Overview The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy device set up and management via any web browser that supports: HTML 4.0, CSS 2.0, and JavaScript 1.5, and higher. The recommended screen resolution for using the web configurator is 1024 by 768 pixels and 16-bit color, or higher. In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow: Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in many operating systems and web browsers. JavaScript (enabled by default in most web browsers). Java permissions (enabled by default in most web browsers). See the Appendix C on page 183 for more information on configuring your web browser. 2.1.1 Accessing the Web Configurator Make sure your WiMAX Device hardware is properly connected (refer to the Quick Start Guide for more information). Launch your web browser. Enter "192.168.1.1" as the URL. MAX208M Users Guide 21 Chapter 2 The Web Configurator Enter the default Username and Password (see the cover page), then click Login. The Main screen displays. Note: For security reasons, the WiMAX Device automatically logs you out if you do not use the Web Configurator for five minutes. If this happens, log in again. 2.1.2 The Reset Button If you forget your password or cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need to use the Reset button to reload the factory-default configuration file. This 22 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 2 The Web Configurator means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the password will be reset to the default (see the cover page). 2.1.2.1 Using The Reset Button Make sure the Power light is on (not blinking). To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the Reset button for five seconds or until all LED lights blink one time, then release it. The device restarts when the defaults have been restored. Reconfigure the WiMAX Device following the steps in your Quick Start Guide. 2.1.3 Saving and Canceling Changes All screens to which you can make configuration changes must be saved before those changes can go into effect.

The router may be used to separate two department networks. This tutorial shows how to configure a static routing rule for two network routings. 46 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 4 Tutorials In the following figure, router R is connected to the WiMAX Devices LAN. R connects to two networks, N1 (192.168.1.x/24) and N2 (192.168.10.x/24). If you want to send traffic from computer A (in N1 network) to computer B (in N2 network), the traffic is sent to the WiMAX Devices WAN default gateway by default. In this case, computer B will never receive the traffic. N1 N2 You need to specify a static routing rule on the WiMAX Device to specify R as the router in charge of forwarding traffic to N2. In this case, the WiMAX Device routes traffic from computer A to R and then R routes the traffic to computer B. N1 N2 MAX208M Users Guide 47 Chapter 4 Tutorials This tutorial uses the following example IP settings: Table 9 IP Settings in this Tutorial DEVICE / COMPUTER IP ADDRESS The WiMAX Devices WAN 172.16.1.1 The WiMAX Devices LAN 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.34 Rs IP address on N1 192.168.1.253 Rs IP address on N2 192.168.10.2 192.168.10.33 To configure a static route to route traffic from N1 to N2: Click Network Setting > Route > Static Route.

WiMAX WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is the IEEE 802.16 wireless networking standard, which provides high-bandwidth, wide-range wireless service across wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs). ZyXEL is a member of the WiMAX Forum, the industry group dedicated to promoting and certifying interoperability of wireless broadband products. In a wireless MAN, a wireless-equipped computer is known either as a mobile station (MS) or a subscriber station (SS). Mobile stations use the IEEE 802.16e standard and are able to maintain connectivity while switching their connection from one base station to another base station (handover) while subscriber stations use other standards that do not have this capability (IEEE 802.16-2004, for example). The following figure shows an MS-equipped notebook computer MS1 moving from base station BS1s coverage area and connecting to BS2. Figure 12 WiMax: Mobile Station MAX208M Users Guide 57 Chapter 6 WiMAX WiMAX technology uses radio signals (around 2 to 10 GHz) to connect subscriber stations and mobile stations to local base stations. Numerous subscriber stations and mobile stations connect to the network through a single base station (BS), as in the following figure. Figure 13 WiMAX: Multiple Mobile Stations A base stations coverage area can extend over many hundreds of meters, even under poor conditions. A base station provides network access to subscriber stations and mobile stations, and communicates with other base stations. The radio frequency and bandwidth of the link between the WiMAX Device and the base station are controlled by the base station. The WiMAX Device follows the base stations configuration. Authentication When authenticating a user, the base station uses a third-party RADIUS or Diameter server known as an AAA (Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) server to authenticate the mobile or subscriber stations. The following figure shows a base station using an AAA server to authenticate mobile station MS, allowing it to access the Internet. Figure 14 Using an AAA Server In this figure, the dashed arrow shows the PKM (Privacy Key Management) secured connection between the mobile station and the base station, and the solid arrow shows the EAP secured connection between the mobile station, the base station and the AAA server. See the WiMAX security appendix for more details. 58 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 6 WiMAX Frequency Ranges The following figure shows the WiMAX Device searching a range of frequencies to find a connection to a base station. Figure 15 Frequency Ranges In this figure, A is the WiMAX frequency range. WiMAX frequency range refers to the entire range of frequencies the WiMAX Device is capable of using to transmit and receive (see the Product Specifications appendix for details). In the figure, B shows the operator frequency range. This is the range of frequencies within the WiMAX frequency range supported by your operator (service provider). The operator range is subdivided into bandwidth steps. In the figure, each C is a bandwidth step. The arrow D shows the WiMAX Device searching for a connection. Have the WiMAX Device search only certain frequencies by configuring the downlink frequencies. Your operator can give you information on the supported frequencies. The downlink frequencies are points of the frequency range your WiMAX Device searches for an available connection. Use the Site Survey screen to set these bands. You can set the downlink frequencies anywhere within the WiMAX frequency range. In this example, the downlink frequencies have been set to search all of the operator range for a connection. Certification Authority A Certification Authority (CA) issues certificates and guarantees the identity of each certificate owner. There are commercial certification authorities like CyberTrust or VeriSign and government certification authorities. You can use the WiMAX Device to generate certification requests that contain identifying information and public keys and then send the certification requests to a certification authority. MAX208M Users Guide 59 Chapter 6 WiMAX Certificate File Formats The certification authority certificate that you want to import has to be in one of these file formats: Binary X.509: This is an ITU-T recommendation that defines the formats for X.509 certificates. PEM (Base-64) encoded X.509: This Privacy Enhanced Mail format uses lowercase letters, uppercase letters and numerals to convert a binary X.509 certificate into a printable form. Binary PKCS#7: This is a standard that defines the general syntax for data (including digital signatures) that may be encrypted. The WiMAX Device currently allows the importation of a PKS#7 file that contains a single certificate. PEM (Base-64) encoded PKCS#7: This Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) format uses 64 ASCII characters to convert a binary PKCS#7 certificate into a printable form. CINR Carrier to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) measures the effectiveness of a wireless signal and plays an important role in allowing the WiMAX Device to decode signal burts. If a burst has a high signal strength and a high interferenceplus-noise ratio, it can use Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to decode it; if the signal strength is lower, it can switch to an alternate burst profile. RSSI Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measures the relative strength of a given wireless signal. This is important in determining if a signal is below the Clear-To-Send (CTS) threshold. If it is below the arbitrarily specified threshold, then WiMAX Device is free to transmit any data packets. EAP Authentication EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an authentication protocol that runs on top of the IEEE 802.1x transport mechanism in order to support multiple types of user authentication. By using EAP to interact with an EAP-compatible RADIUS server, an access point helps a wireless station and a RADIUS server perform authentication. The WiMAX Device supports EAP-TLS and EAP-TTLS (at the time of writing, TTLS is not available in Windows Vista) . For EAP-TLS authentication type, you must first have a wired connection to the network and obtain the certificate(s) from a certificate authority (CA). Certificates (also called digital IDs) can be used to authenticate users and a CA issues certificates and guarantees the identity of each certificate owner. 60 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 6 WiMAX 6.2 Connection Settings This screen allows you to configure how the WiMAX Device connects to the base stations on the WiMAX network.

MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 6 WiMAX 6.4 Authentication Settings These settings allow the WiMAX Device to establish a secure (authenticated) connection with the service provider. Click WiMAX > Profile > Authentication Settings to open this screen as shown next. Figure 19 Authentication Settings Screen MAX208M Users Guide 65 Chapter 6 WiMAX This screen contains the following fields: Table 13 Authentication Settings LABEL DESCRIPTION Authentication Mode Select the authentication mode from the list. The WiMAX Device supports the following authentication modes: No authentication User authentication Device authentication User and device authentication Data Encryption AES-CCM Select this to enable AES-CCM encryption. CCM combines counter-mode encryption with CBC-MAC authentication. AES-CBC Select this to enable AES-CBC encryption. CBC creates message authentication code from a block cipher. Key Encryption AES-key wrap Select this encapsulate cryptographic keys in a symmetric encryption algorithm. AES-ECB Select this to divide cryptographic keys into blocks and encrypt them separately. EAP Supplicant EAP Mode Select an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) mode. The WiMAX Device supports the following: 66 EAP-TLS - In this protocol, digital certifications are needed by both the server and the wireless clients for mutual authentication. The server presents a certificate to the client. After validating the identity of the server, the client sends a different certificate to the server. The exchange of certificates is done in the open before a secured tunnel is created. This makes user identity vulnerable to passive attacks. A digital certificate is an electronic ID card that authenticates the senders identity. However, to implement EAP-TLS, you need a Certificate Authority (CA) to handle certificates, which imposes a management overhead. EAP-TTLS - This protocol is an extension of the EAP-TLS authentication that uses certificates for only the server-side authentications to establish a secure connection. Client authentication is then done by sending username and password through the secure connection, thus client identity is protected. For client authentication, EAP-TTLS supports EAP methods and legacy authentication methods such as PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP and MS-CHAP v2. Anonymous ID Enter the anonymous ID used for EAP supplicant authentication. Server Root CA Cert File Browse for and choose a server root certificate file, if required. Server Root CA Info This field displays information about the assigned server root certificate. Device Cert File Browse for and choose a device certificate file, if required. Device Cert Info This field displays information about the assigned device certificate. MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 6 WiMAX Table 13 Authentication Settings (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Device Private Key Browse for and choose a device private key, if required. Device Private Key Info This field displays information about the assigned device private key. Device Private Key Password Enter the device private key, if required. Inner Mode Sets the EAP-TTLS inner mode. The WiMAX Device supports the following: MS-CHAP v2 - This is version 2 of Microsofts variant of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). It allows for mutual authentication between devices. MS-CHAP - This is Microsofts variant of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). It allows for mutual authentication between devices. CHAP - The Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) uses PPP to authenticate remote devices using a three-way handshake and shared secret verification. MD5 - Message-Digest, algorithm 5, (MD5) encryption is typically used for checking file integrity. Because this encryption protocol contains a number of serious security flaws it is generally not recommended that you use it for authentication security. PAP - Password Authentication Protocol uses unencrypted plaintext to send a passwords for authentication over the network. Its probably not a good idea to rely on this for security. Username Enter the username required for the EAP-TTLS inner method. Password Enter the password required for the EAP-TTLS inner method. Options Enable Auth Mode Decoration in EAP Outer ID Select this to enable authentication mode. Enable Service Mode Decoration in EAP Outer ID Select this to enable service mode.

MAX208M Users Guide 75 Chapter 6 WiMAX 76 MAX208M Users Guide CHAPTER Network Settings 7.1 Overview This chapter shows you how to configure the WiMAX Devices network settings. 7.1.1 What You Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. IP Address IP addresses identify individual devices on a network. Every networking device (including computers, servers, routers, printers, etc.) needs an IP address to communicate across the network. These networking devices are also known as hosts. Subnet Masks Subnet masks determine the maximum number of possible hosts on a network. You can also use subnet masks to divide one network into multiple sub-networks. DHCP A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server can assign your WiMAX Device an IP address, subnet mask, DNS and other routing information when its turned on. MAX208M Users Guide 77 Chapter 7 Network Settings DNS Server Address DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it. The DNS server addresses that you enter in the DHCP setup are passed to the client machines along with the assigned IP address and subnet mask. There are two ways that an ISP disseminates the DNS server addresses. The first is for an ISP to tell a customer the DNS server addresses, usually in the form of an information sheet, when s/he signs up. If your ISP gives you the DNS server addresses, enter them in the DNS Server fields; otherwise, leave them blank. Some ISPs choose to pass the DNS servers using the DNS server extensions of PPP IPCP (IP Control Protocol) after the connection is up. If your ISP did not give you explicit DNS servers, chances are the DNS servers are conveyed through IPCP negotiation. The WiMAX Device supports the IPCP DNS server extensions through the DNS proxy feature. If the Primary and Secondary DNS Server fields are not specified, for instance, left as 0.0.0.0, the WiMAX Device tells the DHCP clients that it itself is the DNS server. When a computer sends a DNS query to the WiMAX Device, the WiMAX Device forwards the query to the real DNS server learned through IPCP and relays the response back to the computer. Please note that DNS proxy works only when the ISP uses the IPCP DNS server extensions. It does not mean you can leave the DNS servers out of the DHCP setup under all circumstances. If your ISP gives you explicit DNS servers, make sure that you enter their IP addresses. This way, the WiMAX Device can pass the DNS servers to the computers and the computers can query the DNS server directly without the WiMAX Devices intervention. RIP Setup RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets. When set to: RX/TX - the WiMAX Device will broadcast its routing table periodically and incorporate the RIP information that it receives. RX Only - the WiMAX Device will not send any RIP packets but will accept all RIP packets received. TX Only - the WiMAX Device will send out RIP packets but will not accept any RIP packets received. None - the WiMAX Device will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets received. 78 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 7 Network Settings The Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the WiMAX Device sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1 is universally supported; but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology. Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference being that RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting. Port Forwarding A NAT server set is a list of inside (behind NAT on the LAN) servers, for example, web or FTP, that you can make accessible to the outside world even though NAT makes your whole inside network appear as a single machine to the outside world. With port forwarding, you can forward incoming service requests to the server(s) on your local network. You may enter a single port number or a range of port numbers to be forwarded, and the local IP address of the desired server. The port number identifies a service; for example, web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. In some cases, such as for unknown services or where one server can support more than one service (for example both FTP and web service), it might be better to specify a range of port numbers. In addition to the servers for specified services, NAT supports a default server. A service request that does not have a server explicitly designated for it is forwarded to the default server. If the default is not defined, the service request is simply discarded. For example, let's say you want to assign ports 21-25 to one FTP, Telnet and SMTP server (A in the example), port 80 to another (B in the example) and assign a default server IP address of 192.168.1.35 to a third (C in the example). You assign the LAN IP addresses and the ISP assigns the WAN IP address. The NAT network appears as a single host on the Internet. Figure 26 Multiple Servers Behind NAT Example MAX208M Users Guide 79 Chapter 7 Network Settings Trigger Ports Some services use a dedicated range of ports on the client side and a dedicated range of ports on the server side. With regular port forwarding you set a forwarding port in NAT to forward a service (coming in from the server on the WAN) to the IP address of a computer on the client side (LAN). The problem is that port forwarding only forwards a service to a single LAN IP address. In order to use the same service on a different LAN computer, you have to manually replace the LAN computer's IP address in the forwarding port with another LAN computer's IP address, Trigger port forwarding solves this problem by allowing computers on the LAN to dynamically take turns using the service. The WiMAX Device records the IP address of a LAN computer that sends traffic to the WAN to request a service with a specific port number and protocol (a "trigger" port). When the WiMAX Device's WAN port receives a response with a specific port number and protocol ("incoming" port), the WiMAX Device forwards the traffic to the LAN IP address of the computer that sent the request. After that computers connection for that service closes, another computer on the LAN can use the service in the same manner. This way you do not need to configure a new IP address each time you want a different LAN computer to use the application. ALG Some applications, such as SIP, cannot operate through NAT (are NAT un-friendly) because they embed IP addresses and port numbers in their packets data payload. Some NAT routers may include a SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG). An Application Layer Gateway (ALG) manages a specific protocol (such as SIP, H.323 or FTP) at the application layer. A SIP ALG allows SIP calls to pass through NAT by examining and translating IP addresses embedded in the data stream. UPnP Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a distributed, open networking standard that uses TCP/IP for simple peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. A UPnP device can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about other devices on the network. In turn, a device can leave a network smoothly and automatically when it is no longer in use. How do I know if I'm using UPnP? UPnP hardware is identified as an icon in the Network Connections folder (Windows XP). Each UPnP compatible device installed on your network will appear as a separate icon. Selecting the icon of a UPnP device will allow you to access the information and properties of that device. 80 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 7 Network Settings NAT Traversal UPnP NAT traversal automates the process of allowing an application to operate through NAT. UPnP network devices can automatically configure network addressing, announce their presence in the network to other UPnP devices and enable exchange of simple product and service descriptions. NAT traversal allows the following: Dynamic port mapping Learning public IP addresses Assigning lease times to mappings Windows Messenger is an example of an application that supports NAT traversal and UPnP. Cautions with UPnP The automated nature of NAT traversal applications in establishing their own services and opening firewall ports may present network security issues. Network information and configuration may also be obtained and modified by users in some network environments. All UPnP-enabled devices may communicate freely with each other without additional configuration. Disable UPnP if this is not your intention. UPnP and ZyXEL ZyXEL has received UPnP certification from the official UPnP Forum (http:// www.upnp.org). ZyXEL's UPnP implementation supports IGD 1.0 (Internet Gateway Device). The WiMAX Device only sends UPnP multicasts to the LAN. Content Filter Internet content filtering allows you to create and enforce Internet access policies tailored to their needs. Content filtering is the ability to block certain specific URL keywords.

In this example, J is Janes computer and S is the Real Audio server. Figure 39 Trigger Port Forwarding Example Jane requests a file from the Real Audio server (port 7070). Port 7070 is a trigger port and causes the WiMAX Device to record Janes computer IP address. The WiMAX Device associates Jane's computer IP address with the "incoming" port range of 6970-7170. The Real Audio server responds using a port number ranging between 6970-7170. The WiMAX Device forwards the traffic to Janes computer IP address. MAX208M Users Guide 95 Chapter 7 Network Settings Only Jane can connect to the Real Audio server until the connection is closed or times out. The WiMAX Device times out in three minutes with UDP (User Datagram Protocol), or two hours with TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). Two points to remember about trigger ports: Trigger events only happen on data that is coming from inside the WiMAX Device and going to the outside.

About the WiMAX Devices Security Features The WiMAX Device security features are designed to protect against Denial of Service attacks when activated as well as block access to and from specific URLs and MAC addresses. Its purpose is to allow a private Local Area Network (LAN) to be securely connected to the Internet. The WiMAX Device can be used to prevent theft, destruction and modification of data. The WiMAX Device is installed between the LAN and a WiMAX base station connecting to the Internet. This allows it to act as a secure gateway for all data passing between the Internet and the LAN. The WiMAX Device has one Ethernet (LAN) port. The LAN (Local Area Network) port attaches to a network of computers, which needs security from the outside world. These computers will have access to Internet services such as e-mail, FTP and the World Wide Web. However, inbound access is not allowed (by default) unless the remote host is authorized to use a specific service.

Prevent from UDP Flood Select this to monitor for and block UDP flood attacks. Prevent from ICMP Flood Select this to monitor for and block ICMP flood attacks. Prevent from Port Scan Select this to monitor for and block port scan attacks. Prevent from LAND Attack Select this to monitor for and block LAND attacks. A SYN flood is one type of denial of service attack where an overwhelming number of SYN requests assault a client device. An UDP flood is a type of denial of service attack where an overwhelming number of UDP packets assault random ports on a client device. Because the device is forced to analyze and respond to each packet, it quickly becomes unreachable to other devices. An ICMP flood is a type of denial of service attack where an overwhelming number of ICMP ping assault a client device, locking it down and preventing it from responding to requests from other servers. A port scan attack is typicall the precursor to a full-blown denial of service attack wherein each port on a device is probed for security holes that can be exploited. Once a security flaw is discovered, an attacker can initiate the appropriate denial of service attack or intrusion attack against the client device. A Local Area Network Denial (LAND) attack is a type of denial of service attack where a spoofed TCP SYN packet targets a client devices IP address and forces it into an infinite recursive loop of querying itself and then replying, effectively locking it down.

PING from WAN MAX208M Users Guide 111 Chapter 8 Security 112 MAX208M Users Guide CHAPTER Maintenance 9.1 Overview Use these screens to manage and maintain your WiMAX Device. 9.1.1 What You Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. Remote Management Limitations Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when: You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens. The IP address in the Secured Client IP field does not match the client IP address. If it does not match, the WiMAX Device will disconnect the session immediately. There is already another remote management session with an equal or higher priority running. You may only have one remote management session running at one time. MAX208M Users Guide 113 Chapter 9 Maintenance Remote Management and NAT When NAT is enabled: Use the WiMAX Devices WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN. Use the WiMAX Devices LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN. System Timeout There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes. The WiMAX Device automatically logs you out if the management session remains idle for longer than this timeout period. The management session does not time out when a statistics screen is polling. SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for exchanging management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite. Your WiMAX Device supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a manager station to manage and monitor the WiMAX Device through the network. The WiMAX Device supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1) and version two (SNMPv2). The next figure illustrates an SNMP management operation. Note: SNMP is only available if TCP/IP is configured. 114 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 9 Maintenance TR-069 TR-069 is an abbreviation of Technical Report 069, a protocol designed to facilitate the remote management of Customer Premise Equipement (CPE), such as the WiMAX Device. It can be managed over a WAN by means of an Auto Configuration Server (ACS). TR-069 is based on sending Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) between the ACS and the client device. RPCs are sent in Extensible Markup Language (XML) format over HTTP or HTTPS. An administrator can use an ACS to remotely set up the WiMAX Device, modify its settings, perform firmware upgrades, and monitor and diagnose it. In order to do so, you must enable the TR-069 feature on your WiMAX Device and then configure it appropriately. (The ACS server which it will use must also be configured by its administrator.) Figure 48 TR-069 Example SIP ACS HTTP In this example, the WiMAX Device receives data from at least 3 sources: A SIP server for handling voice calls, an HTTP server for handling web services, and an ACS, for configuring the WiMAX Device remotely. All three servers are owned and operated by the clients Internet Service Provider. However, without the configuration settings from the ACS, the WiMAX Device cannot access the other two servers. Once the WiMAX Device receives its configuration settings and implements them, it can connect to the other servers. If the settings change, it will once again be unable to connect until it receives its updates from the ACS. The WiMAX Device can be configured to periodically check for updates from the auto-configuration server so that the end user need not be worried about it. MAX208M Users Guide 115 Chapter 9 Maintenance SNMP An SNMP managed network consists of two main types of component: agents and a manager. Figure 49 SNMP Management Model An agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (the WiMAX Device). An agent translates the local management information from the managed device into a form compatible with SNMP. The manager is the console through which network administrators perform network management functions. It executes applications that control and monitor managed devices. The managed devices contain object variables/managed objects that define each piece of information to be collected about a device. Examples of variables include such as number of packets received, node port status etc. A Management Information Base (MIB) is a collection of managed objects. SNMP allows a manager and agents to communicate for the purpose of accessing these objects. The WiMAX Device supports MIB II that is defined in RFC-1213 and RFC-1215. The focus of the MIBs is to let administrators collect statistical data and monitor status and performance. SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol based on the manager/agent model. The manager issues a request and the agent returns responses using the following protocol operations: Get - Allows the manager to retrieve an object variable from the agent. GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations. 116 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 9 Maintenance Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent. Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events. The WiMAX Device sends traps to the SNMP manager when any of the following events occurs: Table 40 SNMP Traps TRAP # TRAP NAME DESCRIPTION coldStart (defined in RFC1215) A trap is sent after booting (power on). warmStart (defined in RFC1215) A trap is sent after booting (software reboot). authenticationFailure (defined in RFC-1215) A trap is sent to the manager when receiving any SNMP get or set requirements with the wrong community (password). whyReboot (defined in ZYXEL- A trap is sent with the reason of restart before MIB) rebooting when the system is going to restart (warm start). 6a For intentional reboot: A trap is sent with the message "System reboot by user!" if reboot is done intentionally, (for example, download new files, CI command "sys reboot", etc.). 6b For fatal error: A trap is sent with the message of the fatal code if the system reboots because of fatal errors. OMA-DM When the WiMAX Device initiates communication with the server (often times at start up or after the first time you turn it on), the server uploads commands, new files (if any), and other information used by a service provider to customize the WiMAX Devices features. Device management works as follows: The server (A) sends out the query (1) to the WiMAX Device (B). The WiMAX Device responds by sending back its credentials (2), to which the server responds with its credentials along with a string of management operations (3). The client responds to the management operations (4), perhaps confirming file alterations or confirming receipt of file uploads and so on. MAX208M Users Guide 117 Chapter 9 Maintenance The server disconnects from the WiMAX Device once all of its management operations have been carried out. Figure 50 OMA-DM Data Management OMA-DM Authentication In order to ensure the integrity of the connection between an OMA-DM server and the WiMAX Device, communication between the two is encoded using one of three common algorithms. They are not intended to be used in lieu of proper digital security, but instead as a means of transmitting multiple disparate types of data over HTTP. Security encryption for communication is handled by different processes configured elsewhere in the WiMAX Devices web configurator Basic Access Authentication Sends a persons user name and password in Base64. This auhentication protocol is supported by all browsers that are HTTP 1.0/1.1 compliant. Although converted to Base64 for the sake of crosscompatibility, credentials are nonetheless passed between the web browser and the server in plaintext, making it extremely easy to intercept and read. As such, it is rarely used anymore. Digest Access Authentication This protocol was designed to replace basic access authentication. Instead of encoding a user name and password in plaintext, this protocol uses what is known as an MD5 message authentication code. It allows the server to issue a single-use, randomly generated number (known as a nonce) to the client (in this case, the web browser), which then uses the number as the public key for encrypting its data. When the server receives the encrypted data, it unlocks it using the key that was just provided. While stronger than basic access authentication, this protocol is not as strong as, say, HMAC, or as secure as the client using a client-side private key encryption scheme. Hash Message Authentication Code Also known as HMAC, this code relies on cryptographic hash functions to bolster an existing protocol, such as MD5. It is a method for generating a stronger, significantly higher encryption key. 118 MAX208M Users Guide Chapter 9 Maintenance OMA-DM Data Model Each device that conforms to the current OMA-DM standard has an identical data structure embedded in its controlling firmware. This allows a similarly conforming OMA-DM server to navigate the folder structure and to make file alterations where appropriate or required. Figure 51 OMA-DM Data Model Operator MP3s Root Folder ./ Vendor Games DMAcc In the example data model shown here, the parent folders must conform to the OMA-DM standard. The child folders, on the other hand, can be customized on an individual basis. This allows the parent folders to all maintain a consistent URI (Uniform Resource Indentifier) across all devices that meet the OMA-DM standards requirements. For example, in the preceding figure the URI for the Games folder is ./Vendor/ Games/. The ./Vendor/ portion of the URI exists on all devices that conform to the OMA-DM standard. The Games folder, however, may or may not exist depending on the services provided by the company managing the device. Daytime A network protocol used by devices for debugging and time measurement. A computer can use this protocol to set its internal clock but only if it knows in which order the year, month, and day are returned by the server. Not all servers use the same format. Time A network protocol for retrieving the current time from a server. The computer issuing the command compares the time on its clock to the information returned by the server, adjusts itself automatically for time zone differences, then calculates the difference and corrects itself if there has been any temporal drift. MAX208M Users Guide 119 Chapter 9 Maintenance NTP NTP stands for Network Time Protocol. It is employed by devices connected to the Internet in order to obtain a precise time setting from an official time server. These time servers are accurate to within 200 microseconds. 9.2 Password Use this screen to set up user and admin accounts for logging into and managing the WiMAX Device.

Table 60 Firmware Specifications FEATURE DESCRIPTION Web-based Configuration and Management Tool Also known as the web configurator, this is a firmwarebased management solution for the WiMAX Device. You must connect using a compatible web browser in order to use it. High Speed Wireless Internet Access The WiMAX Device is ideal for high-speed wireless Internet browsing. WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a wireless networking standard providing high-bandwidth, wide-range secured wireless service. The WiMAX Device is a WiMAX mobile station (MS) compatible with the IEEE 802.16e standard. Firewall The WiMAX Device is a stateful inspection firewall with DoS (Denial of Service) protection. By default, when the firewall is activated, all incoming traffic from the WAN to the LAN is blocked unless it is initiated from the LAN. The WiMAX Devices firewall supports TCP/UDP inspection, DoS detection and prevention, real time alerts, reports and logs. Content Filtering The WiMAX Device can block access to web sites containing specified keywords. You can define time periods and days during which content filtering is enabled and include or exclude a range of users on the LAN from content filtering. Network Address Translation (NAT) Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol address used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a different IP address known within another network (for example a public IP address used on the Internet). Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) Your device and other UPnP enabled devices can use the standard TCP/IP protocol to dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address and convey their capabilities to each other. Dynamic DNS Support With Dynamic DNS support, you can have a static hostname alias for a dynamic IP address, allowing the host to be more easily accessible from various locations on the Internet. You must register for this service with a Dynamic DNS service provider. MAX208M Users Guide 147 Chapter 11 Product Specifications Table 60 Firmware Specifications (continued) FEATURE DESCRIPTION DHCP DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (computers) to obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. Your device has built-in DHCP server capability enabled by default. It can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS servers to DHCP clients. Your device can also act as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignment from the actual real DHCP server to the clients. IP Alias IP alias allows you to partition a physical network into logical networks over the same Ethernet interface. Your device supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet interface with the your device itself as the gateway for each LAN network. Time and Date Get the current time and date from an external server when you turn on your WiMAX Device. You can also set the time manually. Logging Use the WiMAX Devices logging feature to view connection history, surveillance logs, and error messages.

Without it, information transmitted over the wireless network would be accessible to any networking device within range. User Authentication and Data Encryption The WiMAX (IEEE 802.16) standard employs user authentication and encryption to ensure secured communication at all times. User authentication is the process of confirming a users identity and level of authorization. Data encryption is the process of encoding information so that it cannot be read by anyone who does not know the code. WiMAX uses PKMv2 (Privacy Key Management version 2) for authentication, and CCMP (Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Protocol) for data encryption. WiMAX supports EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol, RFC 2486) which allows additional authentication methods to be deployed with no changes to the base station or the mobile or subscriber stations. PKMv2 PKMv2 is a procedure that allows authentication of a mobile or subscriber station and negotiation of a public key to encrypt traffic between the MS/SS and the base station. PKMv2 uses standard EAP methods such as Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS) or Tunneled TLS (EAP-TTLS) for secure communication. In cryptography, a key is a piece of information, typically a string of random numbers and letters, that can be used to lock (encrypt) or unlock (decrypt) a message. Public key encryption uses key pairs, which consist of a public (freely available) key and a private (secret) key. The public key is used for encryption and the private key is used for decryption. You can decrypt a message only if you have the private key. Public key certificates (or digital IDs) allow users to verify each others identity. MAX208M Users Guide 151 Appendix A WiMAX Security RADIUS RADIUS is based on a client-server model that supports authentication, authorization and accounting. The base station is the client and the server is the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server handles the following tasks: Authentication Determines the identity of the users. Authorization Determines the network services available to authenticated users once they are connected to the network. Accounting Keeps track of the clients network activity. RADIUS is a simple package exchange in which your base station acts as a message relay between the MS/SS and the network RADIUS server. Types of RADIUS Messages The following types of RADIUS messages are exchanged between the base station and the RADIUS server for user authentication: Access-Request Sent by an base station requesting authentication. Access-Reject Sent by a RADIUS server rejecting access. Access-Accept Sent by a RADIUS server allowing access. Access-Challenge Sent by a RADIUS server requesting more information in order to allow access. The base station sends a proper response from the user and then sends another Access-Request message. The following types of RADIUS messages are exchanged between the base station and the RADIUS server for user accounting: Accounting-Request Sent by the base station requesting accounting. Accounting-Response Sent by the RADIUS server to indicate that it has started or stopped accounting. In order to ensure network security, the access point and the RADIUS server use a shared secret key, which is a password they both know. The key is not sent over 152 MAX208M Users Guide Appendix A WiMAX Security the network. In addition to the shared key, password information exchanged is also encrypted to protect the network from unauthorized access. Diameter Diameter (RFC 3588) is a type of AAA server that provides several improvements over RADIUS in efficiency, security, and support for roaming. Security Association The set of information about user authentication and data encryption between two computers is known as a security association (SA). In a WiMAX network, the process of security association has three stages. Authorization request and reply The MS/SS presents its public certificate to the base station. The base station verifies the certificate and sends an authentication key (AK) to the MS/SS. Key request and reply The MS/SS requests a transport encryption key (TEK) which the base station generates and encrypts using the authentication key. Encrypted traffic The MS/SS decrypts the TEK (using the authentication key). Both stations can now securely encrypt and decrypt the data flow. CCMP All traffic in a WiMAX network is encrypted using CCMP (Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Protocol). CCMP is based on the 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. Counter mode refers to the encryption of each block of plain text with an arbitrary number, known as the counter. This number changes each time a block of plain text is encrypted. Counter mode avoids the security weakness of repeated identical blocks of encrypted text that makes encrypted data vulnerable to pattern-spotting. Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication (also known as CBC-MAC) ensures message integrity by encrypting each block of plain text in such a way that its encryption is dependent on the block before it. This series of chained blocks creates a message authentication code (MAC or CMAC) that ensures the encrypted data has not been tampered with. MAX208M Users Guide 153 Appendix A WiMAX Security Authentication The WiMAX Device supports EAP-TTLS authentication. EAP-TTLS (Tunneled Transport Layer Service) EAP-TTLS is an extension of the EAP-TLS authentication that uses certificates for only the server-side authentications to establish a secure connection (with EAPTLS digital certifications are needed by both the server and the wireless clients for mutual authentication). Client authentication is then done by sending username and password through the secure connection, thus client identity is protected. For client authentication, EAP-TTLS supports EAP methods and legacy authentication methods such as PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP and MS-CHAP v2. 154 MAX208M Users Guide APPENDIX Setting Up Your Computers IP Address Note: Your specific ZyXEL device may not support all of the operating systems described in this appendix.
