H A P T E R MIB Structure and SNMP This chapter describes how the Mediatrix 4102 uses the SNMP protocol for its configuration. SNMP Overview The Mediatrix 4102 uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for initial software configuration provisioning and subsequent software configuration.
Chapter 8 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Overview SNMP Versions The Mediatrix 4102 supports three versions of SNMP: SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3. SNMP defines a few types of messages that are exchanged between the manager and agent. SNMPv1 Messages The following messages are specific to SNMPv1.
Manager SNMP Behaviour When using SNMP, the following rules apply: Media5 recommends to copy the SNMPv3 user attributes only twice. The administrator may edit the SNMPv3 user attributes: • Authentication algorithm (none, MD5, or SHA) •...
SNMPv3 works properly. The Mediatrix 4102 thus refuses any SNMPv1 or SNMPv2 request it receives. You can disable / enable SNMPv1 / SNMPv2 by using the MIB Browser included in the Media5 Unit Manager Network (or any other MIB Browser) to modify the permissions related to SNMPv1 / SNMPv2 (security model).
The vacmContextTable is not saved under any condition. SNMP Configuration via a Configuration File You can modify the SNMP configuration of the Mediatrix 4102 by inserting an SNMP Agent section in a configuration file and then transferring this configuration file into the unit. This configuration replaces any configuration set in a profile.

The Mediatrix 4102 must be provisioned with various IP addresses and network parameters to be fully functional. This occurs each time the Mediatrix 4102 is started or when an IP address value is changed in the MIB. The Mediatrix 4102 can use static network parameters as well as parameters provided by a DHCP server, an access concentrator, or even a DNS.
Description Static You manually enter the value and it remains the same every time the Mediatrix 4102 restarts. If you do not specify a value, a default static value applies. DHCP The value is obtained at start-time by querying a DHCP server and using standard DHCP fields or options.
Static Configuration Using static IP addresses allows you to bypass the DHCP server or still be able to use the Mediatrix 4102 if you are not running a DHCP server. In this case, having one or more configuration source variable set to DHCP slows down the restart process. If...
The ipAddressConfigLocalHost group allows you to set the IP information the Mediatrix 4102 needs to work properly. This group is vital to the proper operation of the Mediatrix 4102. If a variable of this group is not properly set, the Mediatrix 4102 may not be able to restart and be contacted after it has restarted.

DHCP server already has options that can be set to provide time server addresses, and the order in which clients use them to attempt to discover servers. The Mediatrix 4102 uses Option 42 to specify the IP address corresponding to the server that provides NTP/ SNTP (RFC 1769).
Reference Manual (SIP Version) LAN Connector Static IP Address You can use the LAN connector of the Mediatrix 4102 with the network card of a computer. You could then use this computer to directly access the unit via its LAN interface.
Many network switches use the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) to manage Ethernet ports activity. If the Mediatrix 4102 is connected to such a switch, the switch may shut down the matching Ethernet port for at least one minute. This shutdown on the switch side can prevent proper communication. It may thus take up to three minutes before the unit receives an answer to its request for DHCP options.
“Special Vocal Features” on page 18 for more details. Media5 recommends to reserve an IP address with an infinite lease for each Mediatrix 4102 on the network. Connection to the DHCP Behaviour When the Mediatrix 4102 restarts, it requests a DHCP offer to get its IP addresses and network information.
Chapter 9 - IP Address and Network Configuration Vendor and Site Specific DHCP Options The Mediatrix 4102 stops broadcasting as soon as it receives at least one reply. If the offer is valid, the Mediatrix 4102 takes it and continues its initialization procedure.
Vendor Class ID When using the vendor specific option, first define a Vendor Class ID for the Mediatrix 4102 (not supported in Windows NT servers). A Vendor Class ID can be used by DHCP clients to identify their vendor type and configuration.

You can assign this information to the Mediatrix 4102 through an access concentrator (DSL modem) or DHCP server (cable modem).
When the TAS service is enabled, it adds a network interface to the Mediatrix 4102. This means that two IP addresses may be attributed to the unit – the LAN and WAN connectors of the Mediatrix 4102 each have an IP address.
QoS Differentiated Services Fields If you want to differentiate the packets sent by the PC from the packets sent by the Mediatrix 4102, you must substitute a configured value for the QoS Differentiated Services fields of the packets sent from the PC (routed from the LAN to the WAN interface).
If the MAC address does not match its database, it refuses the connection. Consider the typical scenario in which a user of a Mediatrix 4102 is already subscribed to an ISP for a WAN access (i.e., the Internet). If the ISP monitors the MAC address, the user will not be able to connect to the WAN when using the Mediatrix 4102 in front of the usual device.
“Special Vocal Features” on page 18 for more details. If you are using a router that is connected to the LAN connector of the Mediatrix 4102, you must disable the router’s MAC address spoofing feature so that the Mediatrix 4102 properly spoofs the MAC address of the PC connected to the router.
Enable the WAN upstream bandwidth control by setting the ipRoutingBandwidthControlEnable variable to enable. The Mediatrix 4102 will limit the outgoing throughput on the WAN interface. The unit must be in router mode to properly use the bandwidth control. See “Router Mode” on page 210 for more details.
Chapter 13 - Transparent Address Sharing Ports Settings Ports Settings The Mediatrix 4102 allows you to define how to dynamically allocate the ports it uses. This allows for better NAT and firewall traversal capabilities. UDP and TCP Ports When needed, the TCP/IP implementation of the Mediatrix 4102 randomly selects a dynamic port amongst the free ports of the range.
Restarting the Mediatrix 4102 Reference Manual (SIP Version) RTP/RTCP Base Port Range The RTP/RTCP ports are allocated starting from the base port. The Mediatrix 4102 may use two or four RTP/ RTCP ports for each FXS interface: It uses two ports in case of a standard call.
“Supported DHCP Options” on page 222, all other parameter requests (as part of option 55) are ignored. Supported DHCP Options The DHCP server embedded in the Mediatrix 4102 supports the following options. Table 129: Supported DHCP Option Code Description Network Mask When the router state is public, returns a subnet mask that depends on the class of the WAN address.
224. Network-Layer Protocol Phase The Mediatrix 4102 negotiates an IP address. The requested IP address is the one from the last successful PPPoE connection. If the Mediatrix 4102 never connected by using PPPoE (or after a factory reset), it does not request any specific IP address.
A network connection may abruptly shutdown for many reasons. One of the most common reasons is the maintenance of the network and its environment. When the Mediatrix 4102 detects it has lost the PPP connection, it tries to re-establish the connection as in “Establishing a Connection” on page 223.
Using the Mediatrix 4102 with a Low Bandwidth Connection You can use the Mediatrix 4102 with a low bandwidth connection without any visible performance issues. This is true for both DHCP and PPPoE connections, with either a DSL or cable modem. However, you must configure the Mediatrix 4102 accordingly.
LAN port and routed to the WAN port. You cannot change this priority level. The 8 other queues are used for the traffic the Mediatrix 4102 sends. By default, the lowest priority queue (of these 8 queues) is used for all traffic, and the other 7 are unused.
Mediatrix 4102. The advantage of having the Mediatrix 4102 as the session initiator is to allow NAT traversal. You can also manually upload a configuration file to the Mediatrix 4102 by using the End User web interface. “Configuration File Upload Page” on page 41 for more details.
Certificates The Mediatrix 4102 contains embedded security certificates formatted as per ITU x.509 and RFC 3280. The certificates are factory-installed. The name of X.509 certificates currently installed in the Mediatrix 4102 are listed in the securityCertificatesMIB under the certificateName variable (under the certificateTable group). You must have at least one matching certificate on your HTTPS server.
checking the server certificates validity (dates) The Mediatrix 4102 then checks the server’s identity by validating the host name used to contact it against the information found in the server’s certificate, as described in RFC 2818, section 3.1. If any of the above does not succeed, the Mediatrix 4102 refuses the secure connection. To help detect such errors, you can increase the syslog messages level.
To use static information: In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the configFileFetchingSelectConfigSource variable. This variable defines whether the Mediatrix 4102 must ask for its configuration file server settings through a DHCP server or not. Set the configFileFetchingSelectConfigSource variable to static.

• Cut and paste the path and/or name of the directory that contains the extracted files into the configuration file path of the Mediatrix 4102 (you may have to convert “\” into “/ ”) to eliminate typographical errors. Note that you can define the C:/Root/Download part as you want. The file names may also differ from the example shown above.
If valid configuration files are successfully downloaded, then the Mediatrix 4102 automatically restarts to apply all the new settings. If the Mediatrix 4102 does not restart, this could mean the download failed or that the configuration in the file is the same as the configuration in the unit.
Configuration Files Encryption You can secure the exchange of configuration files between the server and the Mediatrix 4102. A privacy key allows the unit to decrypt a previously encrypted configuration file. This applies to files downloaded via TFTP, HTTPS, or HTTP, but NOT on updates performed from the web interface.
Set the configFilePrivacyEnable variable to enable. The Mediatrix 4102 will be able to decrypt the next encrypted generic or specific configuration file. If this variable is set to disable, the configuration file is not decrypted by the unit and the configuration update fails.

To use static information: In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the imageSelectConfigSource variable. This variable defines whether the Mediatrix 4102 must ask for its Image server settings through a DHCP server or not. Set the imageSelectConfigSource variable to static. Set the following variables:...
The Mediatrix 4102 first downloads a file called “setup.inf”. This file contains the list of all the other files to download, depending on the product. The “setup.inf” file and all the other files must be in the same directory.
Page 276
This is the location of the “setup.inf” file that contains the list of the files to download into the Mediatrix 4102. The “setup.inf” file and all the other files must be in the same directory. In other words, this is the path from the root TFTP/HTTP/HTTPS folder down to the files extracted from the zip file.
Cut and paste the path and/or name of the directory that contains the extracted files into the image path of the Mediatrix 4102 (you may have to convert “\” into “/”) to eliminate typographical errors.

The secondary image server is up and running well. In this case, the Mediatrix 4102 tries to contact the primary image server. As it is not available, the Mediatrix 4102 retries for two minutes. It contacts the secondary server after that period and starts the software download.
However, if these addresses cannot be reached from the unit’s subnet, the default gateway must provide appropriate routing to them. If the software download also fails with the two default servers, the Mediatrix 4102 idles for one minute.
Temporary Administrative State You can set the administrative state of a line that will be kept until the Mediatrix 4102 restarts. Once the unit restarts, it uses the permanent state defined for each line. See “Permanent Administrative State”...

DTMF sequence back by re-generating the true tones. Such a mechanism is known as out-of-band DTMF.The Mediatrix 4102 receives and sends out-of-band DTMFs as per ITU Q.24. DTMFs supported are 0-9, A-D, *, #.
When the feature is enabled: The Mediatrix 4102 sends a separate SIP INFO method every time a digit is entered during the call. The Mediatrix 4102 plays each DTMF sent in a separate message upon receiving a valid SIP INFO message.
276), or the variable telephonyAttributesHookFlashProcessing to outOfBandUsingRtp (“Hook Flash Processing” on page 360), the Mediatrix 4102 will advertise the support for events 0-15; it will assume support for events 0-15 when support for RFC 2833 is received in an announcement. disable This creates a deliberate deviance to RFC 2833 as support of basic events is not automatic.
Set an inter-digit dial delay in the analogScnGwInterDigitDial Delay variable. This is the delay, in milliseconds (ms), between two DTMFs when dialing the destination phone number. This is useful when the Mediatrix 4102 receives DTMFs out-of-band faster than it can signal them.
Chapter 17 - Voice Transmissions DTMF Detection DTMF Detection The default DTMF detection parameters of the Mediatrix 4102 may sometimes not be enough to properly detect the DTMFs.

100 ms to 30 ms. Voice Activity Detection The Voice Activity Detection (VAD) defines how the Mediatrix 4102 sends information pertaining to silence. This allows the unit to detect when the user talks, thus avoiding to send silent RTP packets. This saves on network resources.
RFC 3389: Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) Payload for Comfort Noise (CN) Comfort Noise (CN) defines how the Mediatrix 4102 processes silence periods information it receives. Note: Comfort noise only applies to the G.711 and G.726 codecs. G.729 CNG is not configurable because it is part of the codec.
You can compensate with the user gain if there is no available configuration for the country in which the Mediatrix 4102 is located. Because the user gain is in dB, you can easily adjust the loss plan (e.g., if you need an additional 1 dB for analog to digital, simply put 1 for user gain input).
Upon fax termination, if the call is not BYE, the previous voice codec is recovered with another re- INVITE. All lines of the Mediatrix 4102 can simultaneously use the same codec (for instance, T.38), or a mix of any of the supported codecs. Set and enable these codecs for each line.
This configuration has no effect if the dataIfCngToneDetectionEnable variable is set to enable. Analog CED Detection Behaviour You can define the behaviour of the Mediatrix 4102 upon reception of a CED fax tone from the analog port. To define the analog CED detection behaviour: In the dataIfMIB, set the dataIfAnalogCedDetectionBehavior variable with the proper value.

The Mediatrix 4102 can send faxes in T.38 mode over UDP or TCP. T.38 is used for fax if both units are T.38 capable; otherwise, transmission in clear channel over G.711 as defined is used (if G.711 µ-law and/or G.711 A-law are enabled).
Restart the Mediatrix 4102 so that the changes may take effect. T.38 No-Signal You can set the Mediatrix 4102 to send no-signal packets during a T.38 fax transmission. The Mediatrix 4102 sends no-signal packets if no meaningful data have been sent for a user-specified period of time.
Chapter 18 - Fax Transmission T.38 Fax T.38 INVITE Rejected with 606 You can define the behavior of the Mediatrix 4102 when receiving a 606 SIP error response to an INVITE for T.38 fax. To define the behavior In the sipInteropMIB, set the sipInteropBehaviorOnT38InviteRejectedWith606 variable to the proper value.
A user agent is a logical entity that can act as both client and server for the duration of a dialog. Each line (also known as endpoint) of the Mediatrix 4102 is a user agent. You can set information for each user agent such as its telephone number and friendly name. This information is used to dynamically create the To, From and Contact headers used in the request the user agent sends.
User-Agent header could be something like the following: 8VHU $JHQW 6RIWSKRQH %HWD You can specify whether or not the Mediatrix 4102 sends this information when establishing a communication and customize the header value. To enable sending the SIP User Agent header: In the sipInteropMIB, set the sipInteropSendUAHeaderEnable variable to enable.

You can also set these parameters via the web interface, as described in “SIP Authentication” on page Line-Specific Authentication You can define up to five user names and five passwords for each line of the Mediatrix 4102. A line can thus register with five different realms. Keep in mind that: ...
Unit Authentication You can define up to five user names and five passwords for the Mediatrix 4102. These user names and passwords apply to all lines of the unit. In the Unit Manager Network Administration Manual, refer to chapter Signalling Protocols Parameters, section SIP Authentication.
SIP Trusted Sources You can configure the Mediatrix 4102 so that it only accepts SIP messages coming from one of six trusted IP addresses. All other SIP messages are ignored. This source address validation takes place at the IP level and does not depend on the SIP header or body.
RFC 3261 – SIP: Session Initiation Protocol You can globally set the transport type for all the lines of the Mediatrix 4102 to either UDP (User Datagram Protocol) or TCP (Transmission Control Protocol). The Mediatrix 4102 will include its supported transports in its registrations.
UDP Source Port Behaviour You can configure if the Mediatrix 4102 always uses the same local port (the port on which it is listening for incoming packets) when sending SIP traffic over UDP. This is called symmetric UDP source port. Symmetric UDP ports are sometimes needed to traverse NAT/Firewall devices.
The Mediatrix 4102 skips over UDP and tries the next target, which is TCP. Again, TCP is still in the penalty box, but this time, it is the last target the Mediatrix 4102 can try, so penalty box or not, TCP is used all the same to try to contact endpoint “B”.
(43 seconds before the unit becomes unregistered). Note: Normally, the Mediatrix 4102 cannot make or receive calls until the REGISTER has completed successfully. Because the timeout for a SIP transaction in UDP is 32 seconds, it is possible to have an ongoing re-REGISTER transaction at the same moment that the registration itself expires.
See “Refreshing Registration” on page 304 for more details. The recommended value in RFC 3261 (section 10.2) is 3600 seconds. Restart the Mediatrix 4102 so that the change may take effect. Mediatrix 4102...
“expires” is a suggestion the entity makes. The “expires” parameter indicates how long, in seconds, the user agent would like the binding to be valid. You can configure the “expires” parameter the Mediatrix 4102 sends. To configure the publications expiration: In the sipMIB, set the sipPublicationProposedExpirationValue variable with the suggested expiration delay, in seconds, of a publication in the PUBLISH request.
RFC 3515 - The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) (Refer Method) You can select the version of the transfer draft that the Mediatrix 4102 uses. The provisioned version is used for initiating transfers and receiving them. Transfer versions other than those provisioned do not work.

This allows you to control how the Mediatrix 4102 interoperates with other vendor’s products and older Mediatrix units.
RFC 3261 – SIP: Session Initiation Protocol If a DNS SRV answer contains more than one entry, the Mediatrix 4102 will try these entries if the entry initially selected does not work. You can configure the maximum time, in seconds, to spend waiting for answers to messages, from a single source.
RFC 3261 – SIP: Session Initiation Protocol You can configure whether the Mediatrix 4102 inserts the Max-Forwards header into sent requests, as per RFC 3261. Max-Forwards serves to limit the number of hops a request can make on the way to its destination.
Page 335
RFC 3264 – An Offer/Answer Model with Session Description Protocol (SDP) The Mediatrix 4102 can provide the direction attribute and the meaning of the connection address “0.0.0.0” sent in the SDP when putting an endpoint on hold. This configuration has no effect if the sipInteropSdpDirectionAttributeEnable variable is set to Disable (see “Direction Attribute”...
“Direction Attribute” on page 310 for more details). Allowing Multiple Active Media in Answer You can define the behaviour of the Mediatrix 4102 when answering a request offering more than one active media. To allow multiple active media in answer: In the sipInteropMIB, set the sipInteropAllowMultipleActiveMediaInAnswer variable to the proper value.
Reference Manual (SIP Version) Local Ring Behaviour on Provisional Response You can set the Mediatrix 4102 so that it starts or not the local ring upon receiving a “18x Provisional” response without SDP. This setting does not affect the behaviour when the “18x Provisional” response contains SDP, which allows to establish an early media session before the call is answered.
The branch ID is used to facilitate its use as a transaction ID. It must always begin with the characters “z9hG4bK”. If this is not the case, the Mediatrix 4102 uses the branching method as described in RFC 3261, section 17.2.3.
URI-Parameters You can specify whether or not the Mediatrix 4102 copies the uri-parameters from the Request-URI header to the level of proxy authentication. Not copying the uri-parameters allows to reduce the SIP packet size but it does not follow the recommendations of RFC 3261.
SIP packet. International Code Mapping Some international calling parties have their caller ID prepended with the “+” character. You can instruct the Mediatrix 4102 to substitute this “+” character with a user-defined value.

The default behaviour when sending an initial offer that contains an RFC 2833 payload type is to keep using that payload type even if the response comes back with a different one. You can set the Mediatrix 4102 to rather use the payload type found in the answer.
The default behaviour when receiving an answer to an offer that contained an RFC 2833 payload type is to use that payload type symmetrically (to send and receive DTMF). You can set the Mediatrix 4102 to rather use the payload type that was placed in the initial offer to receive DTMF but still use the one in the response to send them.
The default behaviour in the interpretation of the username parameter of an incoming request for the routing purpose is to compare the entire username. You can configure the Mediatrix 4102 so that it ignores the username parameter in the comparison.
RFC 3264 – An Offer/Answer Model with the Session Description Protocol (SDP) You can define whether or not the Mediatrix 4102 requires strict adherence to RFC 3264 from the peer when negotiating capabilities for the establishment of a media session.
Offer/Answer model. Allow Audio and Image Negotiation You can define the behaviour of the Mediatrix 4102 when offering media or answering to a media offer with audio and image negotiation.
For a unit to work properly behind a firewall, it must keep a pinhole opened by sending keepalive packets through the firewall. The Mediatrix 4102 only sends keepalive packets to the last destination for a specific socket. When a unit is not configured with an outbound proxy, it can send, through its SIP socket, messages to various destinations, such as a SIP redirect server, another SIP unit, or a MWI server.
Chapter 20 - STUN Configuration STUN Client Configuration STUN Client Configuration The following describes how to configure the Mediatrix 4102 STUN client via SNMP. You can also use the web interface to configure the STUN parameters. See “STUN Page” on page 40 for more details.
Enabling the SNTP Client Standards Supported RFC 1769 – Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) You must enable the SNTP client of the Mediatrix 4102 to properly connect to a a SNTP or NTP server. To enable the SNTP feature: In the sntpMIB, set the sntpEnable variable to enable.

Because the Mediatrix 4102 cannot predict how many digits it needs to accumulate before transmission, you could use the digit map, for instance, to determine exactly when there are enough digits entered from the user to place a call.
Special Characters The solution to this problem is to load the Mediatrix 4102 with a digit map that corresponds to the dial plan. A Mediatrix 4102 that detects digits or timers applies the current dial string to the digit map, attempting a match to each regular expression in the digit map in lexical order.
It indicates that if users have not dialed a digit for the time defined, it is likely that they have finished dialing and the Mediatrix 4102 can make the call. A digit map for this could be: >...
The variables related to the digit maps are located in tables. You can create/edit ten digit maps for each Mediatrix 4102. Before changing a parameter value, build its corresponding table with your MIB browser’s table functionality. Depending on the MIB browser you are using, the tables may not appear the same way.
Refused Digit Maps A refused digit map forbids your users to call specific numbers; for instance, you want to accept all 1-8xx numbers except 1-801. You can create/edit ten refused digit maps for each Mediatrix 4102. To set up refused digit maps: In the digitMapMIB, define the digit map string that is considered invalid when dialed in the digitMapRefusedDigitMap variable.

The Mediatrix 4102 MTU is 1500 bytes, which is the Ethernet typical value. Possible Hardware Problem The implementation of the IEEE Standard 802.1q in the Mediatrix 4102 may have a minor problem because of hardware limitations. 802.1q increases the Ethernet frame header by 4 bytes, adding a Virtual LAN ID and a user_priority. This is useful to limit broadcasts that cross bridges, and it may also prioritize frames in the queuing algorithm of switches.
