  • Page 12: Default Configuration

    DHCP server grants the client exclusive use of an assigned IP address for a specified period of time. The Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100 switches include a full implementation of a DHCP server that is in compliance with RFC 2131 and RFC 2132.
  • Page 13: Pppoe

    PPPoE client. Figure 3 shows how the Contivity 1100 switch connected to the DSL modem acts as the PPPoE client. In this configuration, the PPPoE client encapsulates the LAN traffic in the PPPoE header and forwards it to the PPPoE server. New Features for the Contivity 1010/1050/1100...
  • Page 14: Branch Office Quick Start Utility

    Network Operation Center. BOQS adds VPN functionality to basic internet access connectivity. It allows a NOC or central office management to access the Contivity 1010, 1050, or 1100 so that network administrators can further configure the it without going to the remote site.

    DNS Proxy 10747EA You can configure the Contivity 1010, 1050, or 1100 as a DNS proxy, which means that it can act like a DNS server for any PC on the private network. The PCs are configured to send their DNS queries to the DNS proxy, which in turn passes the query to its set of true DNS servers.

  • Page 21: Getting Started

    This chapter provides more detailed information on configuring the features that are unique to the Contivity 1010/1050/1100 series of switches. The Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100 provide support for five (5) tunnels at introduction and 30 tunnels for licensing. The maximum tunnels include the sum of all branch office, client, and management tunnels combined.
  • Page 22: Dhcp Server

    • DHCP Relay and the DHCP Server are mutually exclusive on a physical port. Because the Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100 have the DHCP server enabled by default, Nortel Networks recommends that branch office users set up their PC to accept the IP addresses that the DHCP server will provide the LAN 0 (private) ports.
  • Page 23 Click on the Enable/Disable Server button to select the state of the DHCP server. In the Default Options section, specify the lease time in the ddd:hh:mm:ss format or select Infinite to indicate an unspecified period of time. New Features for the Contivity 1010/1050/1100...

    Then you can send the provisioning parameters to the remote branch office locations. The Contivity 1010, 1050, or 1100 must be connected to a public network and have access to the Internet before local users can use BOQS. The unique Contivity default configuration allows easy deployment of Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100 in DHCP configurations (where a DHCP server is used on the public network).
  • Page 29: Enterprise Environment

    Locating a Contivity VPN Switch at the central office and Contivity 1010/1050/ 1100 series of switches at the branch office locations provides a secure solution. Before you deploy the Contivity 1010, 1050, or 1100 at the local sites, you must configure routing and tunnels on the switch at the central office.
  • Page 30 • Set RIP to enabled. After the central office setup and the BOQS are complete, the Contivity 1010, 1050, or 1100 is directly accessible from the central office. This means that there is just one hop between the central office and the branch office. RIP propagates routes to this subnet across the tunnel created by BOQS.

    Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100. Every Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100 must have a distinct IP address that is visible from the NOC subnet. A NOC can assign any address reachable from a NOC network to Contivity 1010, 1050, and 1100 devices.
