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 BS1 s coverage area and connecting to BS2.Figure 19   WiMax: Mobile Station
Chapter 6WiMAXMAX208M2W Series User s Guide70WiMAX 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 20   WiMAX: Multiple Mobile StationsA base station s 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 MAX208M2W Series and the base station are controlled by the base station. The MAX208M2W Series follows the base station s configuration. AuthenticationWhen 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 21   Using an AAA ServerIn 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.
 Chapter 6WiMAXMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 71Frequency RangesThe following figure shows the MAX208M2W Series searching a range of frequencies to find a connection to a base station. Figure 22   Frequency RangesIn this figure, A is the WiMAX frequency range. "WiMAX frequency range# refers to the entire range of frequencies the MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series searching for a connection.Have the MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series 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 AuthorityA 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 MAX208M2W Series to generate certification requests that contain identifying information and public keys and then send the certification requests to a certification authority.
Chapter 6WiMAXMAX208M2W Series User s Guide72Certificate File FormatsThe 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 MAX208M2W Series 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.CINRCarrier to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) measures the effectiveness of a wireless signal and plays an important role in allowing the MAX208M2W Series to decode signal burts. If a burst has a high signal strength and a high interference-plus-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.RSSIReceived 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 MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series 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.

CBC creates message authentication code from a block cipher.Key EncryptionAES-key wrapSelect this encapsulate cryptographic keys in a symmetric encryption algorithm.AES-ECBSelect this to divide cryptographic keys into blocks and encrypt them separately.EAP SupplicantEAP ModeSelect an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) mode.The MAX208M2W Series supports the following:!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 sender s 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.

MAX208M2W Series User s Guide 89CHAPTER  7 Network Setting7.1  OverviewThis chapter shows you how to configure the MAX208M2W Series s network setting.7.1.1  What You Need to KnowThe following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter.IP AddressIP 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 MasksSubnet 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.DHCPA DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server can assign your MAX208M2W Series an IP address, subnet mask, DNS and other routing information when it s turned on.
Chapter 7Network SettingMAX208M2W Series User s Guide90DNS Server AddressDNS (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 MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series tells the DHCP clients that it itself is the DNS server. When a computer sends a DNS query to the MAX208M2W Series, the MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series can pass the DNS servers to the computers and the computers can query the DNS server directly without the MAX208M2W Series s intervention.RIP SetupRIP (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 MAX208M2W Series will broadcast its routing table periodically and incorporate the RIP information that it receives.!RX Only - the MAX208M2W Series will not send any RIP packets but will accept all RIP packets received.!TX Only - the MAX208M2W Series will send out RIP packets but will not accept any RIP packets received.!None - the MAX208M2W Series will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets received.
 Chapter 7Network SettingMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 91The Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the MAX208M2W Series 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 33   Multiple Servers Behind NAT Example
Chapter 7Network SettingMAX208M2W Series User s Guide92Trigger PortsSome 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 MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series's WAN port receives a response with a specific port number and protocol ("incoming" port), the MAX208M2W Series forwards the traffic to the LAN IP address of the computer that sent the request. After that computer s 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.ALGSome 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.UPnPUniversal 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.
 Chapter 7Network SettingMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 93NAT TraversalUPnP 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 mappingsWindows Messenger is an example of an application that supports NAT traversal and UPnP. Cautions with UPnPThe 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 ZyXELZyXEL 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 MAX208M2W Series only sends UPnP multicasts to the LAN.Content FilterInternet content filtering allows you to create and enforce Internet access policies tailored to their needs.

Its purpose is to allow a private Local Area Network (LAN) to be securely connected to the Internet. The MAX208M2W Series can be used to prevent theft, destruction and modification of data. The MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series 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.

MAX208M2W Series User s Guide 133CHAPTER  9 The VoIP General Screens9.1  VoIP OverviewThe VOICE > General screens allow you to set up global SIP and Quality of Service (QoS) settings.VoIP (Voice over IP) is the sending of voice signals over the Internet Protocol. This allows you to make phone calls and send faxes over the Internet at a fraction of the cost of using the traditional circuit-switched telephone network. You can also use servers to run telephone service applications like PBX services and voice mail. Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP) companies provide VoIP service. A company could alternatively set up an IP-PBX and provide it s own VoIP service.Circuit-switched telephone networks require 64 kilobits per second (kbps) in each direction to handle a telephone call. VoIP can use advanced voice coding techniques with compression to reduce the required bandwidth.9.1.1  What You Can Do in This Chapter!The Media screen (Section 9.2 on page 135) lets you set up and maintain global VoIP settings on the MAX208M2W Series.!The QoS screen (Section 9.2 on page 135) lets you set up and maintain QoS settings for voice traffic flowing through the MAX208M2W Series.9.1.2  What You Need to KnowThe following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter.Voice CodingA codec (coder/decoder) codes analog voice signals into digital signals and decodes the digital signals back into voice signals. The MAX208M2W Series supports the following codecs.
Chapter 9The VoIP General ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide134!G.711 is a Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) waveform codec. PCM measures analog signal amplitudes at regular time intervals (sampling) and converts them into digital bits (quantization). Quantization "reads# the analog signal and then "writes# it to the nearest digital value. For this reason, a digital sample is usually slightly different from its analog original (this difference is known as "quantization noise#). G.711 provides excellent sound quality but requires 64kbps of bandwidth.!G.729 is an Analysis-by-Synthesis (AbS) hybrid waveform codec. It uses a filter based on information about how the human vocal tract produces sounds. The codec analyzes the incoming voice signal and attempts to synthesize it using its list of voice elements. It tests the synthesized signal against the original and, if it is acceptable, transmits details of the voice elements it used to make the synthesis. Because the codec at the receiving end has the same list, it can exactly recreate the synthesized audio signal.G.729 provides good sound quality and reduces the required bandwidth to 8kbps.Quality of Service (QoS)Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a network's ability to deliver data with minimum delay and the networking methods used to provide bandwidth for real-time multimedia applications. Type Of Service (ToS)Network traffic can be classified by setting the ToS (Type Of Service) values at the data source (for example, at the MAX208M2W Series) so a server can decide the best method of delivery, that is the least cost, fastest route and so on. The ToS field is consist of 8 bits. The first 3 bits indicate the priority of the packet.DiffServDiffServ is a class of service (CoS) model that marks packets so that they receive specific per-hop treatment at DiffServ-compliant network devices along the route based on the application types and traffic flow. Packets are marked with DiffServ Code Points (DSCPs) indicating the level of service desired. This allows the intermediary DiffServ-compliant network devices to handle the packets differently depending on the code points without the need to negotiate paths or remember state information for every flow. In addition, applications do not have to request a particular service or give advanced notice of where the traffic is going.DiffServ uses the first 6 bits of the 8-bit ToS value so that it can backward compatible with non-DiffServ compliant but ToS-enabled network device. See Section 9.3.1 on page 137 for more information.SIPThe Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol that handles the setting up, altering and tearing down of voice and
 Chapter 9The VoIP General ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 135multimedia sessions over the Internet. SIP signaling is separate from the media for which it handles sessions. The media that is exchanged during the session can use a different path from that of the signaling. SIP handles telephone calls and can interface with traditional circuit-switched telephone networks.RTPWhen you make a VoIP call using SIP, the RTP (Real time Transport Protocol) is used to handle voice data transfer. See RFC 1889 for details on RTP.9.1.3  Before you Begin!Ensure that you have all of your voice account information on hand. If not, contact your voice account service provider to find out which settings in this chapter you should configure in order to use your telephone with the MAX208M2W Series.!Connect your MAX208M2W Series to the Internet, as described in the Quick Start Guide. If you have not already done so, then you will not be able to test your VoIP settings.9.2  MediaClick VoIP > General > Media to set up and maintain global VoIP settings.Figure 60   VoIP > General > Media

Otherwise, keep the default values.To enter one port number, enter the port number in the both Media Port Start  and Media Port End fields.To enter a range of ports, enter the beginning port number of the range in the Media Port Start field and the ending port number in the Media Port End field.Codec Packetization Time SettingsG.711, G.729 Select the type of voice coder/decoder (codec) that you want the MAX208M2W Series to use. G.711 provides high voice quality but requires more bandwidth (64 kbps). G.729 requires only 8 kbps.AdvancedVoice Jitter Buffer TypeVoice jitter is a variation in delay of RTP packets delivery. This could cause strange sound effects. The MAX208M2W Series can utilize the following types of jitter buffer to minimize the effects of jitter.Dynamic - Jitter buffer size is dynamically changed by RTP packets delivery status.Static - Jitter buffer size is fixed.Voice Jitter Buffer LengthSelect the maximum number of milliseconds of voice traffic the MAX208M2W Series can help to smooth out the jitter in order to ensure good voice quality for your conversations.Packet Loss ConcealmentPackets may be dropped due to an overwhelming amount of traffic on the network. Some degree of packet loss will not be noticeable to the end user, but as packet loss increases the quality of sound degrades. Select this to have the MAX208M2W Series to improve the voice quality when  packet loss occurrs.T.38 Static Jitter LengthT.38 is an ITU-T standard that VoIP devices use to send fax messages over the Internet.Select the number of milliseconds for the jitter buffer size used for transmitting T.38 fax messages.

The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and a 6-bit DSCP field which can define up to 64 service levels. The following figure illustrates the DS field. Figure 62   DiffServ: Differentiated Service FieldDSCP is backward compatible with the three precedence bits in the ToS octet so that non-DiffServ compliant, ToS-enabled network device will not conflict with the DSCP mapping. Table 48   VoIP > General > QoSLABEL DESCRIPTIONSIP ToS/DiffServEnter the first 6 bits of the ToS field in hexadecimal (in a format of 0x00), which you want to mark on all outgoing SIP packets flowing through the MAX208M2W Series. The MAX208M2W Series automatically converts this number to another in order to compatible with DiffServ-enabled network. For example, if you enter 0x2E, it is 101110 in binary for ToS service. The MAX208M2W Series converts it to 10111000 in binary for DiffServ-enabled network.RTP ToS/DiffServSelect the ToS value in hexadecimal (in a format of 0x00) to mark all outgoing RTP packets flowing through the MAX208M2W Series.DSCP(6-bit)Unused(2-bit)
Chapter 9The VoIP General ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide138The DSCP value determines the forwarding behavior, the PHB (Per-Hop Behavior), that each packet gets across the DiffServ network. Based on the marking rule, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different priorities of forwarding. Resources can then be allocated according to the DSCP values and the configured policies.

Chapter 10The VoIP Account ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide140SIP IdentitiesA SIP account uses an identity (sometimes referred to as a SIP address). A complete SIP identity is called a SIP URI (Uniform Resource Identifier). A SIP account's URI identifies the SIP account in a way similar to the way an e-mail address identifies an e-mail account. The format of a SIP identity is SIP-Number@SIP-Service-Domain.SIP NumberThe SIP number is the part of the SIP URI that comes before the "@# symbol. A SIP number can use letters like in an e-mail address (johndoe@your-ITSP.com for example) or numbers like a telephone number (1122334455@VoIP-provider.com for example).SIP Service DomainThe SIP service domain of the VoIP service provider (the company that lets you make phone calls over the Internet) is the domain name in a SIP URI. For example, if the SIP address is 1122334455@VoIP-provider.com, then "VoIP-provider.com# is the SIP service domain.SIP Register ServerA SIP register server maintains a database of SIP identity-to-IP address (or domain name) mapping. The register server checks your user name and password when you register. 10.1.3  SIP User Agent A SIP user agent can make and receive VoIP telephone calls. This means that SIP can be used for peer-to-peer communications even though it is a client-server protocol. In the following figure, either A or B can act as a SIP user agent client to initiate a call. A and B can also both act as a SIP user agent to receive the call.Figure 63   SIP User AgentSIP Proxy ServerA SIP proxy server receives requests from clients and forwards them to another server.AB
 Chapter 10The VoIP Account ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 141In the following example, you want to use client device A to call someone who is using client device C. 1The client device (A in the figure) sends a call invitation to the SIP proxy server (B).2The SIP proxy server forwards the call invitation to C.Figure 64   SIP Proxy ServerSTUNSTUN (Simple Traversal of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) through Network Address Translators) allows the MAX208M2W Series to find the presence and types of NAT routers and/or firewalls between it and the public Internet. STUN also allows the MAX208M2W Series to find the public IP address that NAT assigned, so the MAX208M2W Series can embed it in the SIP data stream. STUN does not work with symmetric NAT routers or firewalls. See RFC 3489 for details on STUN.The following figure shows how STUN works. 1The MAX208M2W Series (A) sends SIP packets to the STUN server (B).2The STUN server (B) finds the public IP address and port number that the NAT router used on the MAX208M2W Series s SIP packets and sends them to the MAX208M2W Series.ACB12
Chapter 10The VoIP Account ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide1423The MAX208M2W Series uses the public IP address and port number in the SIP packets that it sends to the SIP server (C).Figure 65   STUNOutbound ProxyYour VoIP service provider may host a SIP outbound proxy server to handle all of the MAX208M2W Series s VoIP traffic. This allows the MAX208M2W Series to work with any type of NAT router and eliminates the need for STUN or a SIP ALG. Turn off a SIP ALG on a NAT router in front of the MAX208M2W Series to keep it from retranslating the IP address (since this is already handled by the outbound proxy server).NAT and SIPThe MAX208M2W Series must register its public IP address with a SIP register server. If there is a NAT router between the MAX208M2W Series and the SIP register server, the MAX208M2W Series probably has a private IP address. The MAX208M2W Series lists its IP address in the SIP message that it sends to the SIP register server. NAT does not translate this IP address in the SIP message. The SIP register server gets the MAX208M2W Series s IP address from inside the SIP message and maps it to your SIP identity. If the MAX208M2W Series has a private IP address listed in the SIP message, the SIP server cannot map it to your SIP identity.Use a SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway), STUN, or outbound proxy to allow the MAX208M2W Series to list its public IP address in the SIP messages.Speed Dial and Peer-to-Peer CallingSpeed dial provides shortcuts for dialing frequently used phone numbers. You can map a phone number to an alphanumeric keypad key (1 to 9) and then use that keypad key to call the phone number (press and hold the key for one second or longer). Use this screen to add, edit, or remove speed-dial numbers for outgoing calls.You also have to create speed-dial entries if you want to make peer-to-peer calls or call SIP numbers that use letters.A123NAT
 Chapter 10The VoIP Account ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 143In peer-to-peer calls, you call another VoIP device directly without going through a SIP server. Enter the callee s IP address or domain name. The MAX208M2W Series sends SIP INVITE requests to the peer VoIP device when you use the speed dial entry.You do not need to configure a SIP account in order to make a peer-to-peer VoIP call.DTMF Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) telephone call signaling uses pairs of frequencies (one lower frequency and one higher frequency) to set up calls. It is also known as Touch Tone. Each of the keys on a DTMF telephone corresponds to a different pair of frequencies. Supplementary Phone Services OverviewSupplementary services such as call hold, call waiting, call transfer, etc. are generally available from your VoIP service provider. The MAX208M2W Series supports the following services:!Call Waiting!Call Forwarding!Caller ID!HotlineNote: To take full advantage of the supplementary phone services available though the MAX208M2W Series's phone port, you may need to subscribe to the services from your VoIP service provider.

 Chapter 10The VoIP Account ScreensMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 1551A sends a SIP INVITE request to B. This message is an invitation for B to participate in a SIP telephone call. 2B sends a response indicating that the telephone is ringing.3B sends an OK response after the call is answered. 4A then sends an ACK message to acknowledge that B has answered the call. 5Now A and B exchange voice media (talk). 6After talking, A hangs up and sends a BYE request. 7B replies with an OK response confirming receipt of the BYE request and the call is terminated.10.9.2  SIP Client ServerSIP is a client-server protocol. A SIP client is an application program or device that sends SIP requests. A SIP server responds to the SIP requests. When you use SIP to make a VoIP call, it originates at a client and terminates at a server. A SIP client could be a computer or a SIP phone. One device can act as both a SIP client and a SIP server.

If it does not match, the MAX208M2W Series will disconnect the session immediately.3There 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.
Chapter 12MaintenanceMAX208M2W Series User s Guide162Remote Management and NATWhen NAT is enabled:!Use the MAX208M2W Series s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN. !Use the MAX208M2W Series s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.System TimeoutThere is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes. The MAX208M2W Series 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.SNMPSimple 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 MAX208M2W Series supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a manager station to manage and monitor the MAX208M2W Series through the network. The MAX208M2W Series 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.
 Chapter 12MaintenanceMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 163TR-069TR-069 is an abbreviation of "Technical Reference 069#, a protocol designed to facilitate the remote management of Customer Premise Equipement (CPE), such as the MAX208M2W Series. 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 MAX208M2W Series, 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 MAX208M2W Series and then configure it appropriately. (The ACS server which it will use must also be configured by its administrator.)Figure 76   TR-069 ExampleIn this example, the MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series remotely. All three servers are owned and operated by the client s Internet Service Provider. However, without the configuration settings from the ACS, the MAX208M2W Series cannot access the other two servers. Once the MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series can be configured to periodically check for updates from the auto-configuration server so that the end user need not be worried about it.SIPACSHTTP
Chapter 12MaintenanceMAX208M2W Series User s Guide164SNMPAn SNMP managed network consists of two main types of component: agents and a manager.Figure 77   SNMP Management ModelAn agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (the MAX208M2W Series). 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 MAX208M2W Series 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.
 Chapter 12MaintenanceMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 165!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 MAX208M2W Series sends traps to the SNMP manager when any of the following events occurs:     OMA-DMWhen the MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series s features.Device management works as follows: 1The server (A) sends out the query (1) to the MAX208M2W Series (B). 2The MAX208M2W Series responds by sending back its credentials (2), to which the server responds with its credentials along with a string of management operations (3). 3The client responds to the management operations (4), perhaps confirming file alterations or confirming receipt of file uploads and so on. Table 60   SNMP TrapsTRAP # TRAP NAME DESCRIPTION0coldStart (defined in RFC-1215)A trap is sent after booting (power on).1warmStart (defined in RFC-1215)A trap is sent after booting (software reboot).4authenticationFailure (defined in RFC-1215)A trap is sent to the manager when receiving any SNMP get or set requirements with the wrong community (password).6whyReboot (defined in ZYXEL-MIB)A trap is sent with the reason of restart before 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.
Chapter 12MaintenanceMAX208M2W Series User s Guide1664The server disconnects from the MAX208M2W Series once all of its management operations have been carried out.Figure 78   OMA-DM Data ManagementOMA-DM AuthenticationIn order to ensure the integrity of the connection between an OMA-DM server and the MAX208M2W Series, 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 MAX208M2W Series s web configuratorBasic Access Authentication % Sends a person s 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 cross-compatibility, 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.
 Chapter 12MaintenanceMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 167OMA-DM Data ModelEach 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 79   OMA-DM Data ModelIn 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 standard s 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.DaytimeA 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.TimeA 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.Root Folder./DMAccVendorOperatorMP3sGames

You must connect using a compatible web browser in order to use it.High Speed Wireless Internet AccessThe MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series is a WiMAX mobile station (MS) compatible with the IEEE 802.16e standard. FirewallThe MAX208M2W Series 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 MAX208M2W Series s firewall supports TCP/UDP inspection, DoS detection and prevention, real time alerts, reports and logs.Content FilteringThe MAX208M2W Series 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.
 Chapter 14Product SpecificationsMAX208M2W Series User s Guide 195Network Address Translation (NAT)Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocoladdress used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a different IP address known withinanother 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 SupportWith 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.DHCPDHCP (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 AliasIP 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.Multiple SIP AccountsYou can configure multiple voice (SIP) accounts.SIP ALGYour device is a SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG). It allows VoIP calls to pass through NAT for devices behind it (such as a SIP-based VoIP software application on a computer). Dynamic Jitter BufferThe built-in adaptive buffer helps to smooth out the variations in delay (jitter) for voice traffic (up to 60 ms). This helps ensure good voice quality for your conversations.Voice Activity Detection/Silence SuppressionVoice Activity Detection (VAD) reduces the bandwidth that a call uses by not transmitting when you are not speaking. Comfort Noise GenerationYour device generates background noise to fill moments of silence when the other device in a call stops transmitting because the other party is not speaking (as total silence could easily be mistaken for a lost connection). Echo Cancellation You device supports G.168 of at least 24 ms.This an ITU-T standard for eliminating the echo caused by the sound of your voice reverberating in the telephone receiver while you talk.Time and DateGet the current time and date from an external server when you turn on your MAX208M2W Series. You can also set the time manually.Table 84   Firmware Specifications (continued)FEATUREDESCRIPTION

The caller must still pay while the call is parked.When you park the call, you enter a number of your choice (up to eight digits), which you must enter again when you pick up the call. If you do not enter the correct number, you cannot pickup the call. This means that only someone who knows the number you have chosen can pick up the call. You can have more than one call on hold at the same time, but you must give each call a different number.Call ReturnWith call return, you can place a call to the last number that called you (either answered or missed). The last incoming call can be through either SIP or PSTN.Country CodePhone standards and settings differ from one country to another, so the settings on your MAX208M2W Series must be configured to match those of the country you are in. The country code feature allows you to do this by selecting the country from a list rather than changing each setting manually. Configure the country code feature when you move the MAX208M2W Series from one country to another.Do not Disturb (DnD)This feature allows you to set your phone not to ring when someone calls you. You can set each phone independently using its keypad, or configure global settings for all phones using the command line interpreter.Table 85   Standards Supported  (continued)STANDARD DESCRIPTION
Chapter 14Product SpecificationsMAX208M2W Series User s Guide198Auto DialYou can set the MAX208M2W Series to automatically dial a specified number immediately whenever you lift a phone off the hook. Use the Web Configurator to set the specified number. Use the command line interpreter to have the MAX208M2W Series wait a specified length of time before dialing the number. Phone configThe phone configuration table allows you to customize the phone keypad combinations you use to access certain features on the MAX208M2W Series, such as call waiting, call return, call forward, etc. The phone configuration table is configurable in command interpreter mode.Firmware update enable / disableIf your service provider uses this feature, you hear a recorded message when you pick up the phone when new firmware is available for your MAX208M2W Series. Enter *99# in your phone s keypad to have the MAX208M2W Series upgrade the firmware, or enter #99# to not upgrade. If your service provider gave you different numbers to use, enter them instead. If you enter the code to not upgrade, you can make a call as normal. You will hear the recording again each time you pick up the phone, until you upgrade. Call waitingThis feature allows you to hear an alert when you are already using the phone and another person calls you. You can then either reject the new incoming call, put your current call on hold and receive the new incoming call, or end the current call and receive the new incoming call.Call forwardingWith this feature, you can set the MAX208M2W Series to forward calls to a specified number, either unconditionally (always), when your number is busy, or when you do not answer. You can also forward incoming calls from one specified number to another.Caller IDThe MAX208M2W Series supports caller ID, which allows you to see the originating number of an incoming call (on a phone with a suitable display).RENA Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices (like telephones or fax machines) that may be connected to the telephone line. Your device has a REN of three, so it can support three devices per telephone port.QoS (Quality of Service) Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms help to provide better service on a per-flow basis. Your device supports Type of Service (ToS) tagging and Differentiated Services (DiffServ) tagging. This allows the device to tag voice frames so they can be prioritized over the network.Table 86   Voice Features
