  • Page 25: Using A Static Ip Address

    3.1.1. Using A Static IP Address When using a Static IP address, the user must manually specify all the configuration parameters associated with the IP address of the Pro Series. These include the IP address, the network subnet mask, the gateway computer and the domain name server computers. This section will look at each of these in more detail.

  • Page 27: Snmp Configurations

    3.2. SNMP Configurations The Pro Series has the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agent supporting SNMP v1 and v2 protocols. Network managers like NMS or SNMP Browser can exchange information with Pro Series, as well as access required functionality. SNMP protocols include GET, SET, GET–Next, and TRAPs. With these functions, a manager can be notified of significant events (TRAPs), query a device for more information (GET), and make changes to the device state (SET).

    Indicates whether the SNMP agent process is permitted to generate system login traps for console, telnet and Web access. If users need support for adding or modifying MIBs, please contact Sena technical support. For more information about the MIBs and SNMP, see the RFCs 1066, 1067, 1098, 1317, 1318 and 1213.

If the data transfer between a remote host and the Pro Series is completed, the state is changed to this state as a result that either of the remote host or the Pro Series sent a disconnection request.

If the remote host is one of the hosts configured on remote host configuration, then Pro Series transfers the data through the serial port.
  • Page 50  Inactivity Timeout In UDP mode, Inactivity Timeout is used in maintaining recent unlisted remote host. If there is no data transmission between unlisted remote host and serial port of Pro Series during Inactivity Timeout, Pro Series will not send data from a serial port to the recent unlisted remote host again. Namely, Inactivity Timeout in UDP mode is the time maintained recent unlisted remote host list by Pro Series.

Recent unlisted remote host is a remote host, which has accessed a corresponding serial port of Pro Series but is not configured on remote host configuration.

    4.2.4. Remote Host Configuration Remote host configuration is the list of hosts that will receive data from serial port of Pro Series when there is data transmission from the serial port of the Pro Series.

    4.2.5. Cryptography Configuration The Pro Series supports encrypted sessions for only the TCP mode including modem emulation mode (not UDP mode). Figure 4-10 Cryptography configuration 4.2.5.1. Secure Sockets Layer(SSL) Cryptography Method By setting the cryptography method as SSL, the Pro Series can communicate with another device supporting SSLv3 cryptography method during encrypted sessions.
  • Page 59 To initiate SSL sessions, exchange of messages called the SSL handshake is required between two devices (Server and Client). The SSL protocol uses a combination of public-key and symmetric key encryption. Symmetric key encryption is much faster than public-key encryption, but public-key encryption provides better authentication techniques.

The Pro Series can communicate with another device or another Pro Series that supports RC4 cryptography mode with same Key string.

  • Page 97: Appendix 3. Well-Known Port Numbers

    Appendix 3. Well-known Port Numbers Port numbers are divided into three ranges: Well Known Ports, Registered Ports, and Dynamic and/or Private Ports. Well Known Ports are those from 0 through 1023. Registered Ports are those from 1024 through 49151. Dynamic and/or Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535. Well Known Ports are assigned by IANA, and on most systems, can only be used by system processes or by programs executed by privileged users.
