RADIUS attributes. Administration and troubleshooting: Stinger Administration Guide (this guide). Describes how to administer the Stinger unit and manage its operations. Each chapter focuses on a particular aspect of Stinger administration and operations. The chapters describe tools for system management, network management, and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management.
“Understanding physical addressing on Stinger units” on page 2-1. Logging into a Stinger unit When you log into a Stinger unit, you actually connect to its control module. If the Stinger unit contains two control modules, you can connect to either control module.
Stinger unit. See “Managing administrative access to the unit” on page 1-5. If the Stinger unit will be configured for SNMP, see also “Securing the SNMP agent” on page 7-4. Changing the default Admin password Because the admin login has superuser privileges, you must change the default password immediately.
Administering a Stinger System Enabling basic security measures If your Stinger unit is operating with two control modules, both are working in parallel. As a result, the primary control module does not copy over this configuration to the secondary control module. You must secure both serial ports manually.
Stinger command-line interface to monitor or configure the unit. In contrast, connection profiles contain authentication and configuration information for a remote device or user and allow the remote user to connect to the Stinger unit for WAN or LAN access.

For all telnet user accounts, first and second level, the attribute Ascend-Telnet- Profile must be set to a valid Stinger user profile. For a second level user, the attribute Ascend-First-Level-User must specify a first-level user account.
Page 31
Administering a Stinger System Managing administrative access to the unit Settings in the system profile To configure second-level authentication for a Stinger system, in the system profile, set the user-second-level-authentication parameter. The definition of the user- second-level-authentication parameter is as follows:...
Page 32
Administering a Stinger System Managing administrative access to the unit Sample configuration Suppose you have an existing user profile called admin. To require two levels of authentication for the user admin, create a new user john and configure it as a first- level login.
Stinger unit using the open shelf slot command, the systems creates a terminal session using the control bus. The host Stinger unit authenticates a user by prompting the user for a user name and password. The user name and password must be defined in a user profile in the host Stinger system.
All password administration must be performed by the RADIUS server system administrator. After successful authentication, the RADIUS server returns the name of the Stinger user profile that is linked to the external user account. The system authenticates users as defined in the user profile for user terminal session.
User password expiration date. Complex field. expiration-date Note Stinger systems do not audit RADIUS server user accounts. If a Stinger system is configured for external authentication and the audit-user-profiles parameter in the system profile is enabled, for the users to be authenticated, the RADIUS server administrator must ensure that for all system telnet user accounts, the attribute Ascend-User-Acct-Expiration is set to the correct date.
Administering a Stinger System Managing administrative access to the unit Enforcing a password check To configure the system to validate that any new password created is unique and that it is at least 8 characters in length, with at least two numbers and four alphabetical characters, set the enforce-password-check parameter in user profileto yes.
ReEnter New Password: user2> Creating Telnet access control lists You can restrict telnet access to the Stinger system by configuring a tacl (telnet access control list) profile. You must have system authorization to create, read, or modify the profile. You can configure up to 20 entries in the tacl profile, each of which specifies a source IP address that is explicitly allowed telnet access to the system.
Escape character is '^]'. User: admin Password: An attempt to telnet to the Stinger system from an IP address that is not on the specified subnet will fail. For example, the following sequence is displayed: (sys10-27-45-45) telnet 210.210.210.99 Trying 210.210.210.99...
Permissions control the actions that a user who logs in with a particular profile can perform on a Stinger unit. Each permission enables the use of a particular command class. When you use the help command to display available commands, the left column shows command names, and the right column shows the command class.

Disconnecting an idle connection You can configure a Stinger unit to disconnect a modem connection after a specified period of inactivity. To configure a timeout value, set the inactivity-time parameter in the modem profile with a value from 0 through 255 seconds. With the default setting of 0, the timer is disabled and an inactive modem connection is not disconnected after any period of inactivity.
MODEM/{ shelf-1 first-control-module 3 } written Resetting a Stinger system When you reset the Stinger system, it restarts and terminates all active connections. All users are logged out, and the default security level is reactivated. In addition, a system reset can cause a WAN line to temporarily shut down due to momentary loss of signaling or framing information.
On a Stinger MRT, because control module and LIM functions are incorporated into the unit’s chassis, the terms control module and LIM in this guide refer to the control module and LIM functions on the Stinger MRT, and not to physical modules.
On a hosted system, the show command displays information about all shelves with an active control link to the host. For example, on a hosted Stinger MRT system, the following command output shows that in addition to the host shelf (shelf ID 1), shelves 3, 4, 5, and 6 have an active link to the host.

Specify one of the following values: (the default)—The SNMP agent uses v1-and-v3 both SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 protocols. —The SNMP agent uses only the SNMPv1 v1-only protocol and discards any other types of messages.
SNMP written Securing the SNMP agent TAOS provides the following means to secure the SNMP agent in the Stinger unit against unwanted access from remote SNMP managers, to specify the type of access granted to SNMP managers, and to configure encryption and authentication for the communications between the agent and managers: Ability to specify community strings when you enable read-write access.
Name (up to 31 characters) or IP address (in dotted decimal notation) of the host SNMP manager that sends SNMP requests to the Stinger SNMP agent. If the Domain Name System (DNS) or Network Information Service (NIS) is supported, the system uses this name to look up the LAN address.
SNMPv3 USM is described in RFC 2574, User-based Security Model for SNMPv3. Enabling privacy causes the Stinger unit to accept encrypted requests from an SNMP manager and send responses in encrypted format. The encryption uses a 64-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm. The system uses your privacy password to generate a private key for the encryption.
Timeliness—Protects against message delay or replay. Discovery—Allows an SNMP manager to obtain sufficient information about the Stinger units’ SNMP agent to establish communication between an SNMP manager station and the Stinger units. GetBulkRequest—Added from SNMPv2 to allow the SNMPv3 manager to minimize the number of protocol exchanges required to retrieve a large amount of management information.

Enabling a watchdog to monitor fan failure Stinger systems create watchdog-config profiles for each fantray assembly. On standalone Stinger FS, Stinger FS+, Stinger LS, or Stinger RT units the system creates three. On Stinger MRT units, a single watchdog-config profile is created.
Stinger units installed with revision 2 control modules A, B, A-J, or C can monitor the status of up to seven devices. A Stinger MRT unit can monitor up to four remote devices. To verify that your system supports this capability, see the Getting Started Guide for your unit at http://www.lucentdocs.com/ins.

Link state traps are enabled for this port, that is, in the admin-state-phys-if and admin-perm-state-if profiles. A trunk module or TRAM is installed in the Stinger chassis. Linkdown and Linkup traps are enabled in trap profile for this trap destination.
Trap sequencing and the heartbeat trap You can configure a Stinger unit to add sequence numbers to traps. With the trap sequencing feature enabled, the Stinger unit increments the trap sequence number before sending it, which provides a means for the NavisAccess® management software to detect if any trap was lost in transit.
The traps are replayed using the notification log MIB and its extension. Therefore, for this feature to work, you must also enable the notification log on the Stinger unit (the notify-log-enabled parameter must be set to yes).

The ping command is useful for verifying that the transmission path between the Stinger unit and another station is open. Ping sends an ICMP Echo-Request packet to the specified station. If the station receives the packet, it returns an ICMP Echo- Response packet.
The ping command also supports the -f option, which sets the Don’t Fragment (DF) bit in the IP header of ping packets. Setting the DF bit enables the Stinger unit to discover the datagram size, or path maximum transmission unit (PMTU), of the path from the remote host.

Column Indicates Destination Route’s target address. To send a packet to this address, the Stinger unit uses this route. If the target address appears more than once in the routing table, the Stinger unit uses the most specific route (having the largest subnet mask) that matches that address.
For syntax information, see the Stinger Reference. Adding a static IP route to the routing table To add a static IP route to the Stinger unit’s routing table, use the iproute add command. For example, the following command adds a route to the network 10.1.2.0 and all its subnets through the IP router located at 10.0.0.3/24.
Probes start with a TTL of 1 and increase by 1 until one of the following conditions occurs: The Stinger unit receives an ICMP port unreachable message. (The UDP port in the probe packets is set to an unlikely value, such as 33434, because the target host is not intended to process the packets.

Verifying name service settings You can retrieve a host address by using the nslookup command, provided that the Stinger unit has been configured with the address of a name server. If a host has several IP interfaces, the command returns several addresses.
IP address sends an ARP response with its MAC address. The Stinger unit maintains a cache of known IP addresses and host MAC addresses. With the arptable command, you can display the ARP table, add or delete ARP table entries, or clear the ARP cache entirely.
DNS fails to successfully resolve a hostname. For information about configuring the DNS host table, see the Stinger T1000 Module Routing and Tunneling Supplement. The DNS host table is not a DNS cache, but a fallback option, listing up to eight host addresses for important or frequently used connections.

Displaying information about IGMP The igmp command displays multicast information about Internet Group Membership Protocol (IGMP) groups and clients, if the Stinger unit is enabled for IP multicast forwarding. For syntax information, see the Stinger Reference. To display information about active multicast client group addresses and interfaces, use the -group option.
Page 232
Members ID represents members on the same Ethernet interface as the Stinger unit. All other IDs go to members of each group as they inform the Stinger unit that they have joined the group. If a client is a member of more than one group to which the Stinger unit forwards multicast packets, it has more than one multicast ID.
PPP negotiation problems. The syntax of the command is as follows: wandisplay number-of-octets-to-display If you enter the command while traffic through the Stinger unit is heavy, the resulting amount of output can make your search for information tedious.

While in the default direction state, what happens when a Stinger unit receives an activation request When a Stinger unit is in the default direction and a remote peer sends a continuity check activate request, the Stinger unit accepts any direction that the remote peer specifies.
Stinger unit accepts activate requests from the remote peer only if the direction specified by the remote peer is B-to-A. The Stinger direction stays in the A- to-B direction until you deactivate the test locally using the oam command or the atm- oam profile, at which point the direction reverts to default.
Note that the continuity check direction for this continuity check is now set to A-to-B (Stinger unit to the remote peer), and remains in the A-to-B direction until you stop the test using the oam command, as in the example below: admin>...
