1 INTRODUCTION

The PointMAX 3000 and PointMAX 3000V CPEs are 2.5 GHz indoor
WiMAX IEEE 802.16e CPEs that include either an RJ-45 LAN port and two
RJ-11 phone ports, or just a single RJ-45 LAN port. The CPEs are WiMAX
wireless access subscriber stations with a built-in high-capacity Internet
gateway, ideal for a home or small office. Each system provides network
connections that are always on, supporting immediate access to the
Internet and other IP services at high data rates. The unit provides a
gateway function between a WiMAX service provider and a local Ethernet
LAN. The device enables a service provider to deliver last mile broadband
wireless access as an alternative to wired DSL or cable modems.

With a range of up to 5 Km and lower equipment and deployment costs,

PointMAX 3000 CPEs enable service providers to wirelessly extend their
services to customers in areas where the cost of cabling is prohibitive to
deployment. Remote residential areas can now benefit from high-speed
wireless Internet access, Web browsing and e-mail, and advanced
applications such as multi-media services.

The PointMAX 3000 CPEs are plug-and-play devices that provide a

network interface through an RJ-45 Ethernet switch port, as well as two
RJ-11 Voice over IP (VoIP) phone ports for telecommunications.

SNTP

SNTP
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) allows the CPE to set its internal
clock based on periodic updates from a time server (SNTP or NTP).
Maintaining an accurate time on the CPE enables the system log to record
meaningful dates and times for event entries. If the clock is not set, the
CPE will only record the time from the factory default set at the last
bootup.

The CPE acts as an SNTP client, periodically sending time synchronization

requests to specific time servers. You can configure up to two time server
IP addresses. The CPE will attempt to poll each server in the configured
sequence.

Figure 14: SNTP Settings

The following items are displayed on this page:

NTP Configures the CPE to operate as an SNTP client.

(Default: Enabled)

NTP Server IP Address The IP address of an SNTP or NTP time

server that the CPE attempts to poll for a time update.

Update Period The interval at which the client sends a time update
request to the SNTP or NTP server.

Time Zone SNTP uses Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT (sometimes

referred to as Coordinated Universal Time, or UTC) based on the time
at the Earths prime meridian, zero degrees longitude. To display a time
corresponding to your local time, you must indicate the number of
hours your time zone is located before (east) or after (west) GMT.

This chapter describes NAT settings on the CPE. It includes the following
sections:

Virtual Server on page 49

Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) on page 51

NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION

Network Address Translation (NAT) is a method of mapping between a
single global address on the WAN interface to multiple local addresses on
the LAN interface. For the CPE, the internal (local) IP addresses are those
assigned to PCs or other network devices by the DHCP server, and the
external IP address is the single address assigned to the WAN port.

Figure 19: Network Address Translation

The following items are displayed on the NAT page:

Active Activates NAT.

VIRTUAL SERVER
If you configure the CPE as a virtual server, remote users accessing
services such as web sites or FTP servers on your local network through
public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers
configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the
requested service (designated by the TCP/UDP port number), the CPE
redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at
an internal IP address). This secures your network from direct attack by
hackers, and provides more flexible management by allowing you to
change internal IP addresses without affecting outside access to local
network services.

49
CHAPTER 7 | NAT Settings
Virtual Server

For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the
Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside
users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. Therefore, by just
entering the IP address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the
service they need at the local address to which you redirect them.

The more common TCP service port numbers include: HTTP: 80, FTP: 21,
Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110.

DEMILITARIZED ZONE (DMZ)

This page is used to allow a specified host on the local network to access
the Internet without any firewall protection. Some Internet applications,
such as interactive games or videoconferencing, may not function properly
behind the CPEs firewall. By specifying a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) host,
the PC's TCP ports are completely exposed to the Internet, allowing
unrestricted two-way communications. The host PC should be assigned a
static IP address and this address configured as the DMZ host IP.

SNMP

SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a communication protocol
designed specifically for managing devices on a network. Equipment
commonly managed with SNMP includes switches, routers and host
computers. SNMP is typically used to configure these devices for proper
operation in a network environment, as well as to monitor them to evaluate
performance or detect potential problems.

Managed devices supporting SNMP contain software, which runs locally on

the device and is referred to as an agent. A defined set of variables, known
as managed objects, is maintained by the SNMP agent and used to manage
the device. These objects are defined in a Management Information Base
(MIB) that provides a standard presentation of the information controlled
by the agent. SNMP defines both the format of the MIB specifications and
the protocol used to access this information over the network.

The CPE includes an onboard agent that supports SNMP versions 1, 2c, and
3 clients. This agent continuously monitors the status of the CPE, as well as
the traffic passing to and from wireless clients. A network management
station can access this information using SNMP management software that
is compliant with MIB II. To implement SNMP management, the CPE must
first have an IP address and subnet mask, configured either manually or
dynamically. Access to the onboard agent using SNMP v1 and v2c is
controlled by community strings. To communicate with the CPE, the
management station must first submit a valid community string for
authentication.

Access to the CPE using SNMP v3 provides additional security features that
cover message integrity, authentication, and encryption; as well as
controlling notifications that are sent to specified user targets.

10 VOIP SETTINGS (POINTMAX 3000V)

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology is a way of using the

Internet to make phone calls. Phone calls can be tranmitted over the
Internet by encoding a voice call into data packets at one end and then
decoding it back into voice calls at the other end. This encoding and
decoding is from a analog signal (your voice) into a digital signal (data
packets) and then back into an analog signal.

The PointMAX 3000V uses Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as the control
mechanism that sets up, initiates, and terminates calls between a caller
and a called party. The SIP messaging makes use of Proxy, Redirect,
and Registration servers to process call requests and find the location of
called parties across the Internet. When SIP has set up a call between two
parties, the actual voice communication is a direct peer-to-peer connection
using the standard Real-Time Protocol (RTP), which streams the encoded
voice data across the network.

You can make VoIP calls by connecting a regular phone to one of the CPEs
RJ-11 Phone ports. You can also make VoIP calls from your computer using
a VoIP application with a simple microphone and computer speakers. Using
either method, VoIP provides an experience identical to normal
telephoning.

The CPE allows the two RJ-11 Phone ports to be configured separately with
different settings.

This chapter describes the VoIP settings on the CPE. It includes the
following sections:

DTMF Key Pad Defines the Dual-tone multi-frequency (DTMF)

signaling used for telecommunication signaling over analog telephone
lines in the voice-frequency band between telephone handsets and
other communications devices and the switching center.

DIAL PLAN
Dial-plan strings specify key sequences used for specific calling features
(Transfer, New Call, 3-way conference), as well as defining call restriction
filters.

A dial plan can filter the number and pattern of digits that a user dials to
reach a particular telephone number. Access codes, area codes, specialized
codes, and combinations of the number of digits dialed can all be part of a
dial plan. This enables a user to predefine dialling sequences that are
permitted.

The dial-plan string consists of a single digit rule. A typical example of a

dial-plan string is: [0123]xxxxxx.t

Three standard dial plans are defined; Call Transfer Key, New Call Key, and
3-way Conference. Up to 10 other dial plans can be defined by the user.

Dial Plan

Figure 32: Dial Plan Settings

The function of elements allowed in a dial plan are described in the table
below:

Table 3: Dial Plan Elements

Element Example Description

x xxxx Represents a digit of any value ( 0 to 9) that can be dialed on a

phone. This example has a rule with four digits of any number.

. xx. Indicates zero or more occurrences of the previous symbol. The

example acts like a wildcard, meaning any dialed phone number
of two or more digits is allowed.

0-9 01xx Indicates dialed digits that must be matched. This example only
allows four-digit numbers starting 01.

[ ] [125-8] Limits a dialed digit to specified values or a range of values. The

example specifies that only digits 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are
permitted.

t xx.t The timeout indicator that can placed after dialed digits or at the
end of the dial-plan string.

When a user dials a series of digits, the dial-plan rule is tested for a
possible match. If a match is made, the dialed sequence is transmitted. If
no match is made, the dialed number is blocked and the user will hear an
error tone.

A dial-plan string cannot include spaces between elements. Dialed

sequences that are longer than specified in a dial-plan rule are truncated
after the number of specified digits. For example, if the dial-plan rule is
011x and 0115678 is dialed, only the digit sequence 0115 is
transmitted.

TWISTED-PAIR CABLE ASSIGNMENTS

For 10/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs
of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example,
one wire might be green and the other, green with white stripes. Also, an
RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.

NOTE: Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a specific
orientation.

CAUTION: DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into the RJ-45 port. Use
only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC
standards.

The following figure illustrates how the pins on the RJ-45 connector are
numbered. Be sure to hold the connectors in the same orientation when
attaching the wires to the pins.

10/100BASE-TX PIN Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for
ASSIGNMENTS RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Category 3 or better cable for 10 Mbps
connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection
does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

The RJ-45 port on the CPE supports automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so

you can use straight-through or crossover cables for all network
connections to PCs, switches, or hubs. In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2,
3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1,
2, 3, and 6 at the other end of the cable.

CROSSOVER WIRING If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and either both ports are
labeled with an X (MDI-X) or neither port is labeled with an X (MDI), a
crossover must be implemented in the wiring. (When auto-negotiation is
enabled for any RJ-45 port on this CPE, you can use either straight-through
or crossover cable to connect to any device type.)

You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to
support Gigabit Ethernet connections.

Category 5 or better UTP cable.

ADVANCED ENCRYPTION An encryption algorithm that implements symmetric key cryptography. AES
STANDARD (AES) provides very strong encryption using a completely different ciphering
algorithm to TKIP and WEP.

AUTHENTICATION The process to verify the identity of a client requesting network access.
IEEE 802.11 specifies two forms of authentication: open system and
shared key.

BACKBONE The core infrastructure of a network. The portion of the network that
transports information from one central location to another central location
where it is unloaded onto a local system.

BEACON A signal periodically transmitted from the CPE that is used to identify the
service set, and to maintain contact with wireless clients.

BROADCAST KEY Broadcast keys are sent to stations using dynamic keying. Dynamic
broadcast key rotation is often used to allow the CPE to generate a random
group key and periodically update all key-management capable wireless
clients.

DYNAMIC HOST Provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on a

CONFIGURATION TCP/IP network. DHCP is based on the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), adding
PROTOCOL (DHCP) the capability of automatic allocation of reusable network addresses and
additional configuration options.

ENCRYPTION Data passing between the CPE and clients can use encryption to protect
from interception and evesdropping.

ETHERNET A popular local area data communications network, which accepts

transmission from computers and terminals.

FILE TRANSFER A TCP/IP protocol used for file transfer.

PROTOCOL (FTP)

HYPERTEXT TRANSFER HTTP is a standard used to transmit and receive all data over the World
PROTOCOL (HTTP) Wide Web.

INFRASTRUCTURE An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an infrastructure

configuration.

LOCAL AREA NETWORK A group of interconnected computer and support devices.

(LAN)

MAC ADDRESS The physical layer address used to uniquely identify network nodes.

NETWORK TIME NTP provides the mechanisms to synchronize time across the network. The
PROTOCOL (NTP) time servers operate in a hierarchical-master-slave configuration in order
to synchronize local clocks within the subnet and to national time
standards via wire or radio.

OPEN SYSTEM A security option which broadcasts a beacon signal including the CPEs
configured SSID. Wireless clients can read the SSID from the beacon, and
automatically reset their SSID to allow immediate connection to the
nearest CPE.

ORTHOGONAL OFDM allows multiple users to transmit in an allocated band by dividing the
FREQUENCY DIVISION bandwidth into many narrow bandwidth carriers.
MULTIPLEXING (ODFM)

SERVICE SET IDENTIFIER An identifier that is attached to packets sent over the wireless LAN and
(SSID) functions as a password for joining a particular radio cell; i.e., Basic Service
Set (BSS).

SESSION KEY Session keys are unique to each client, and are used to authenticate a
client connection, and correlate traffic passing between a specific client and
the CPE.

88
 GLOSSARY

SHARED KEY A shared key can be used to authenticate each client attached to a wireless
network. Shared Key authentication must be used along with the 802.11
Wireless Equivalent Privacy algorithm.

SIMPLE NETWORK TIME SNTP allows a device to set its internal clock based on periodic updates
PROTOCOL (SNTP) from a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. Updates can be requested from
a specific NTP server, or can be received via broadcasts sent by NTP
servers.

TEMPORAL KEY A data encryption method designed as a replacement for WEP. TKIP avoids
INTEGRITY PROTOCOL the problems of WEP static keys by dynamically changing data encryption
(TKIP) keys.

TRIVIAL FILE TRANSFER A TCP/IP protocol commonly used for software downloads.
PROTOCOL (TFTP)

VIRTUAL CPE (VAP) Virtual AP technology multiplies the number of CPEs present within the RF
footprint of a single physical access device. With Virtual AP technology,
WLAN users within the device.s footprint can associate with what appears
to be different CPEs and their associated network services. All the services
are delivered using a single radio channel, enabling Virtual AP technology
to optimize the use of limited WLAN radio spectrum.

WI-FI PROTECTED WPA employs 802.1X as its basic framework for user authentication and
ACCESS dynamic key management to provide an enhanced security solution for
802.11 wireless networks.

WIRED EQUIVALENT WEP is based on the use of security keys and the popular RC4 encryption
PRIVACY (WEP) algorithm. Wireless devices without a valid WEP key will be excluded from
network traffic.

WPA PRE-SHARED KEY WPA-PSK can be used for small office networks with a limited number of
(WPA-PSK) users that may not need a high level of security. WPA-PSK provides a
simple security implementation that uses just a pre-shared password for
network access.
