Page 38: How The Cable Modem Telephone Return System Works
PortMaster 2Ei or a PortMaster ISDN Office Router (OR-U) used for dial-up. How the Cable Modem Telephone Return System Works After you set the IP address of the DHCP server on the PortMaster 4, the cable modem dynamically configures itself so that all subsequent data travels upstream via the telephone interface, and downstream on the coaxial cable.
Page 39 2. Using the telephone interface, the cable modem broadcasts a DHCP request. The destination of the request is 255.255.255.255 and the source is 192.168.33.10. 3. The PortMaster 4 forwards the request to the DHCP server by substituting the IP address of the DHCP server (10.66.98.96) for the broadcast destination address.
Page 40: Displaying The Routing Table
To display the IPX routing table entries, enter the following command: Command> show ipxroutes Note – The PortMaster 4 supports the IPX protocol when running ComOS 4.1 or later. IPX is not supported in ComOS 4.0. The routes appear in the following order: 1.

Note – You can delete only static routes. Modifying the Static Netmask Table Note – ComOS 4.1 and later releases support both RIP-1 and RIP-2 on the PortMaster 4. Earlier releases of ComOS support only RIP-1. 2-18 PortMaster 4 Configuration Guide...
Page 43 Setting Static Routes The netmask table is provided to allow routes advertised by RIP-1 to remain uncollapsed on network boundaries in cases where you want to break a network into noncontiguous subnets. The PortMaster normally collapses routes on network boundaries as described in RFC 1058.
Page 44 If you are using an IRX running ComOS 3.2R or later as your gateway, you can configure the netmask table on the router also. This allows your PortMaster to listen to RIP messages from the other PortMaster routers and route directly to each of them. 2-20 PortMaster 4 Configuration Guide...
Page 45: Setting Authentication For Dial-In Users
Setting Authentication for Dial-In Users Setting Authentication for Dial-In Users You can configure the PortMaster for three authentication methods, PAP, CHAP, and username/password login. By default, PAP and CHAP are set to on. Dial-in users are asked to authenticate with PAP when PPP is detected.

Page 111: Input And Output Filters For Ftp Packets
Example Filters Input and Output Filters for FTP Packets Filters can be used to either permit or deny File Transfer Protocol (FTP) packets. You must understand how this protocol works before you develop FTP filters. FTP uses TCP port 21 as a control channel, but it transfers data on another channel initiated by the FTP server from TCP port 20 (FTP-data).
Page 112: Rule To Permit Dns Into Your Local Network
This example filter allows any kind of outgoing connection from the server, but blocks all incoming traffic to any host but your designated Internet server. This filter also limits incoming traffic on your Internet server to SMTP, Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP), DNS, FTP, and ICMP services. 8-10 PortMaster 4 Configuration Guide...

Page 142: Configuring Ss7
SS7, you identify an SS7 gateway to the signaling network that does call management for user traffic on IMTs. Because modem pools are managed on a slot-by-slot basis, each slot in the PortMaster 4 configured for IMTs is an SS7 client and sets up an independent session with the SS7 gateway.
Page 143: Setting The Intermachine Trunk
To configure the PortMaster 4 to communicate with an SS7 gateway using the default IMT switch type, you set only the IP address and port number of the gateway, and the PortMaster 4 base port number. You do not need to set the switch type—if it is not specified, the default is assumed.
Page 144: Viewing Ss7 Configurations
Configuring SS7 Using the Optional 1A Switch Type for T1 To configure the PortMaster 4 to communicate with an SS7 gateway using the 1A IMT switch type, you must specify the switch type when you set the IP address and port number of the gateway, and the PortMaster 4 base port number.

Frame Relay Configuration on the PortMaster performance for your application. In most cases, ordering according to these criteria provides service that is close to your port speed. The CIR is a guaranteed minimum throughput, not a maximum limit. Port speed is the maximum limit. LMI Types The following Frame Relay terms relate to network management.
Page 156: Enabling Annex-D
12-8. Configuring a T1 or E1 Line for Frame Relay You configure Frame Relay on the PortMaster 4 by configuring a T1 line on the Quad T1 board or an E1 line on the Tri E1 board. This section describes how to configure one end of a Frame Relay connection. Because configuration for both ends of the connection is the same, you can use the procedure in this section as a guide for configuring both ends of your Frame Relay connection.
Page 157: Configuring Global And Ethernet Settings
Before you configure a line for Frame Relay, you must configure global settings on the PortMaster 4, set the gateway routers, and configure the Ethernet interface. Follow the procedures in this section to configure a T1 or E1 line for Frame Relay service.
