SNMP Configuration
Page Left Intentionally Blank
C H A P T E R 2 MIB Structure and SNMP This chapter describes how the Mediatrix 4100 uses the SNMP protocol for its configuration. SNMP Overview The Mediatrix 4100 uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for initial software configuration provisioning and subsequent software configuration. SNMP is a simple request-reply protocol for Internet network management services.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Overview SNMP Versions The Mediatrix 4100 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. Table 11: SNMPv1 Message Types Operator Description messages sent from the manager to the agent get-request Get the value of one or more variables.
SNMP Overview Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) SNMPv3 Messages To correct the security deficiencies of SNMPv1/v2, SNMPv3 was defined with an overall SNMP architecture and a set of security capabilities. SNMPv3 includes three important services: authentication, privacy, and access control (Figure 10). To deliver these services in a flexible and efficient manner, SNMPv3 introduces the concept of a principal, which is the entity on whose behalf services are provided or processing takes place.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Overview Non-Secure Management Mode In non-secure management mode, the unit responds to SNMP requests as follows: SNMPv1: read-write on all MIB tree SNMPv2c: read-write on all MIB tree SNMPv3: read-write on all MIB tree by using: • MD5 authentication • Authentication password: “Md5Password” (initial password) • DES encryption • Encryption password: “DesPassword” (initial password) SNMPv3: read-write on all MIB tree by using: • SHA authentication
SNMP Overview Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) is saved in flash memory only if these conditions are met: The RowStatus variable (e.g., vacmAccessRowStatus) is equal to active(1). The StorageType variable (e.g., vacmAccessStorageType) is equal to nonVolatile(3). Note: The vacmContextTable is not saved under any condition.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Overview
SNMP Overview Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) Enable/Disable SNMPv3 Enable/Disable SNMPv3 PAGE 50Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Overview Enabling/Disabling SNMPv1, SNMPv2 and SNMPv3 By default, the parameters in the SNMP Agent section enable SNMPv1 and SNMPv2. However, you may want to disable them. To enable SNMPv1 and SNMPv2: 1.
MIB Structure Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) These fields are identified in Figure 11 on page 29 with the following icon : . Caution: SNMPv3 passwords must be at least 8 characters long. MIB Structure The current MIB structure is defined in the SMI file, called MX-SMI.my. The SMI contains seven main groups. Table 13: Structure of Management Information Group Description mediatrixProducts Each Media5 product has been assigned with its own sysObjectID value.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP MIB Structure Textual Conventions Textual conventions are defined in a module to ensure that all variables throughout the MIB structure use the same syntax and types. The type of each variable is defined in the Composed syntax line. Table 14: Textual Conventions Type Definition MxIpHostName Represents an IP address or a domain name. MxIpAddress Represents an IP address. MxIpPort The TCP or UDP port number range. Values can be between 1 and 65535.
MIB Structure Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) IP Addresses The MIB structure contains many IP addresses that can be set or viewed. See “Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration” on page 41 for more details. Persistence A variable may either be persistent or volatile. Table 16: Storage Clauses Clause Definition Persistent Persistent parameters are saved into the unit’s memory and restored when it restarts.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP Tables Tables There are two types of tables used in the MIB structure. They contain: Generic variables that apply to each line of a unit. This avoids to repeat each set of variables for each line it has. The administrative commands and status related to a managed object. Generic Variables All tables used to set variables for one or more lines (such as the voiceIfTable) are based on the ifTable, or interface table. The ifTable lists the interfaces of a unit.
Tables Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) Variables for Administrative Commands Administrative commands are built on a hierarchical structure of parents-children. A command applied on a parent is propagated to all of its children. There are two tables used to define administrative commands to groups: groupAdmin: A group may be the unit itself (gateway) or other instances. There are no instances other than the gateway defined at this moment.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Access Limitation SNMP Access Limitation The SNMP access to the Mediatrix 4100 can be limited to only one of its interface or all interfaces. To limit the access to the SNMP interface: 1. In the snmpAgentMIB, select the interface where the Mediatrix 4100 can be accessed via SNMP in the snmpAgentAccess variable.
Switching Protocols Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) The Mediatrix 4100 has several configurable MIBs. All variables in these MIBs have been configured by default upon start up. However, if you need to modify some of these variables, use a MIB browser. Switching Protocols You can switch between protocols and the proper settings are activated upon restart. To switch protocols: 1. In the telephonyMIB, locate the telephonyIpSignalingProtocol Selection variable.
Chapter 2 - MIB Structure and SNMP 40 Switching Protocols Mediatrix 4100
C H A P T E R 3 IP Address and Network Configuration The Mediatrix 4100 must be provisioned with various IP addresses and network parameters to be fully functional. This occurs each time the Mediatrix 4100 is started or when an IP address value is changed in the MIB. The Mediatrix 4100 can use static network parameters as well as parameters provided by a DHCP server or even a DNS. This chapter assumes that you know how to set up and use a DHCP and DNS server.
Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration Services There may be some confusion between the three available IP address formats. In particular, it is important to understand that prefixing “0” to the values makes them interpreted as octal values. For instance, the string 192.168.0.009 is not valid because 009 is interpreted in octal, and the digit “9” does not exist in that base. Provisioning Source The Mediatrix 4100 IP information may come from a variety of sources.
Services Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) Verifying the DHCP-Assigned IP Addresses You can query the MIB structure to see the IP addresses that have been assigned to the Mediatrix 4100. Those IP addresses are located under the ipAddressStatus folder in read-only variables. This assumes that you know the local host IP address. To get the local host IP address of a Mediatrix unit, use the autodetect feature of the Media5’ Unit Manager Network product.
Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration Services Note: Media5 recommends not to set a static subnet mask address of 255.255.255.254 because this would only create a subnet with two addresses. This only leaves one bit host addresses. Since a subnet must have a network (all bits 0) and a broadcast address (all bits 1), this leaves no room for hosts. Note: If the localHostDnsOverrideEnable variable is enabled, the primary and secondary DNS addresses are set with static values.
Services Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) FQDN Configuration Source You can select where to get the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the gateway. The Mediatrix 4100 uses the FQDN to register to the MGCP/NCS call agent. To select the FQDN configuration source: 1. In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the localHostFqdnSelectConfigSource variable (under the ipAdressConfigLocalHost group). This variable indicates the source to be used for the provisioning of the Mediatrix 4100 FQDN information.
Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration Services SNMP Configuration No DHCP value is available, you can define SNMP information with only static values. Table 28: SNMP Source Variable Default Static Value localHostSnmpPort 161 DHCP Source N/A In the Unit Manager Network Administration Manual, refer to chapter Working with SNMP, section Setting Unit SNMP Preferences. The Mediatrix 4100 uses the SNMP protocol for software configuration.
Services Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) To use static DNS IP addresses: 1. In the ipAddressConfig folder, set the localHostDnsOverrideEnable variable (under the ipAdressConfigLocalHost group) to enable. The primary DNS and secondary DNS addresses are set with the static values defined in the localHostStaticPrimaryDns and localHostStaticSecondaryDns variables. 2. Restart the Mediatrix 4100 so that the changes may take effect.
Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration Services Management Server The ipAddressConfigMs group provides the configuration necessary for contacting a SNMP management server such as the Media5 Unit Manager Network. In the Unit Manager Network Administration Manual, refer to chapter Administration Parameters, section Unit Manager Server. To select the Management Server configuration source: 1.
Services Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) Table 33: Configuration File Fetching Source (Continued) Variable configFileFetching Port Default Static Value N/A DHCP Source Use option specified in variable configFileFetchingDhcpSiteSpecificCode, bytes 4-5. If not specified (0), use option 43, sub-option 201, bytes 4-5. If bytes 4-5 are not present, use the default static value. 3. configFileFetching StaticHost “192.168.0.
Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration Services MGCP Call Agent The ipAddressConfigMgcpCallAgent group provides the configuration necessary for contacting a MGCP call agent. To select the MGCP Call Agent configuration source: 1. In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the mgcpCASelectConfigSource variable (under the ipAddressConfigMgcpCallAgent group). 2. Set this variable to either static or dhcp (vendor/site specific option).
ETH2 Connector Static IP Address Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) SNTP The ipAddressConfigSntp group provides the configuration necessary for contacting a NTP/SNTP server. If you are using a NTP or SNTP server (see “Chapter 14 - SNTP Settings” on page 157 for more details), the 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.
Chapter 3 - IP Address and Network Configuration 2. DHCP Server Configuration In the ipAddressConfig folder, set the static ETH2 connector information as follows: Table 39: LAN Interface Source Variable Default Static Value Description lanStaticAddress 192.168.10.1 LAN IP address used by the unit’s ETH2 interface. lanStaticNetworkMask 255.255.255.0 LAN subnet mask used by the unit’s ETH2 interface. Note: Do not set the lanStaticAddress variable to 0.0.0.0.
Vendor and Site Specific DHCP Options Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) The Mediatrix 4100 stops broadcasting as soon as it receives at least one reply. If the offer is valid, the Mediatrix 4100 takes it and continues its initialization procedure. Note: If the localHostSelectConfigSource variable is set to static and any other xxSelectConfigSource variable is set to dhcp, the Mediatrix 4100 makes its DHCP request that will be released immediately.

C H A P T E R 4 MGCP Protocol Features This chapter describes how to set information exclusive to the Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP). It assumes that the Mediatrix 4100 unit currently runs the MGCP protocol or that you will switch the unit to this protocol. The MGCP signalling programs and information are defined in a MGCP stack. This includes Call Agent information and addresses, media package settings, etc. Introduction When the Mediatrix 4100 runs the MGCP protocol, it uses the mgcpMIB.
Chapter 4 - MGCP Protocol Features Call Agent Information Call Agent Information The Call Agent is the server that sends the proper information to the Mediatrix 4100 unit and manages calls from and to the unit. Note: You can set the domain name of the gateway that manages the endpoints in the localHostFqdnSelectConfigSource variable. If the FQDN is not present or is blank, the FQDN is blank. See “FQDN Configuration Source” on page 45 for more details.
Call Agent Information Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) Static Configuration Use the static configuration if you are not using a DHCP server or if you want to bypass it. To use static information: 1. In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the mgcpCASelectConfigSource variable (under the ipAddressConfigMgcpCallAgent group). This variable defines whether the Mediatrix 4100 must ask for its Call Agent settings through a DHCP server or not. 2. Set the mgcpCASelectConfigSource variable to static. 3.

Chapter 11 - Fax Transmission T.38 Fax The Mediatrix 4100 can send faxes in T.38 mode over UDP. 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). If no clear channel codecs are enabled and the other endpoint is not T.38 capable, the fax transmission fails. In the Unit Manager Network Administration Manual, refer to chapter Ports Parameters, section Port Configuration Window.
T.38 Fax Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) To set T.38 fax transmission: 1. Enable T.38 by setting the dataIfCodecT38Enable variable to enable. If you select the signalingProtocolDependent option of the voiceIfDtmfTransport variable (“DTMF Transport Type” on page 139), the signaling protocol has the control to enable or disable T.38. 2. Set the number of redundancy packets sent with the current packet in the dataIfCodecT38ProtectionLevel variable. This is the standard redundancy offered by T.38.

C H A P T E R 13 STUN Configuration This chapter describes how to configure the STUN client of the Mediatrix 4100.
Chapter 13 - STUN Configuration STUN Client Configuration STUN Client Configuration The following describes how to configure the Mediatrix 4100 STUN client via SNMP. To configure the STUN client: 1. In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the ipAddressConfigStunStatic group. No DHCP value is available, you can only define STUN server information with static values. 2. Set the static STUN server IP address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) in the stunStaticHost variable. The default value is 192.
C H A P T E R 14 SNTP Settings The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) enables the notion of time (date, month, time) into the Mediatrix 4100. It updates the internal clock of the unit, which is the client of a SNTP server. It is required when dealing with features such as the caller ID. SNTP is used to synchronize a SNTP client with a SNTP or NTP server by using UDP as transport.
Chapter 14 - SNTP Settings Configuration Source Configuration Source The Mediatrix 4100 must know the IP address and port number of the SNTP server. You can assign these information to the Mediatrix 4100 through a DHCP server or manually enter them yourself with the static variables. In the Unit Manager Network Administration Manual, refer to chapter Administration Parameters, section SNTP.
Defining a Custom Time Zone Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) Defining a Custom Time Zone Standards Supported bootp-dhcp-option-88.txt Internet draft When starting, the Mediatrix 4100 queries a NTP or SNTP server to receive time information. It receives the information in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) format (also known as Universal Time Coordinated - UTC), so it needs to convert this GMT time into the proper time zone.
Chapter 14 - SNTP Settings Defining a Custom Time Zone is the last Sunday of October (5 indicates the last z day). It does not matter if the Sunday is in the 4th or 5th week. M10.1.6 is the first week with a Saturday (thus the first Saturday). It does not matter if the Saturday is in the first or second week. The TIME parameter has the same format as OFFSET but there can be no leading minus (-) or plus (+) sign. If TIME is not specified, the default is 02:00:00.
C H A P T E R 15 Management Server Configuration The Management Server is a generic name for a module or software that is used to remotely set up Mediatrix 4100 units. For instance, the Management Server could be the Media5’s Unit Manager Network product. See “Unit Manager Network – Element Management System” on page xvii for more details. In the Unit Manager Network Administration Manual, refer to chapter Administration Parameters, section Unit Manager Server.
Chapter 15 - Management Server Configuration 3. Using the Management Server Set how you want to define the Management Server information in the DHCP server: Table 114: Management Server DHCP Information To use a...

Set the management server IP address in the DHCP server inside the vendor specific suboption 200 (hexadecimal 0xC8). site specific code The msDhcpSiteSpecificCode variable to any value between 128 and 254.
C H A P T E R 16 Quality of Service (QoS) QoS (Quality of Service) features enable network managers to decide on packet priority queuing. The Mediatrix 4100 supports the Differentiated Services (DS) field and 802.1q taggings. There are three variables – one variable for signalling (MGCP/NCS) and one variable for each of voice and T.38 media. The Mediatrix 4100 supports the Real Time Control Protocol (RTCP), which is used to send packets to convey feedback on quality of data delivery.
Chapter 16 - Quality of Service (QoS) IEEE 802.1q These variables are 1 octet scalar ranging from 0 to 255. The DSCP default value should be 101110. This results in the DS field value of 10111000 (184). This default value would result in a value of “101” precedence bits, low delay, high throughput, and normal reliability in the legacy IP networks (RFC 791, RFC 1812).
VLAN Reference Manual (MGCP/NCS Version) VLAN You can set various VLAN parameters to control user priority. To enable the VLAN configuration: 1. In the qosVlanIeee8021q group of the qosMIB, locate the qosVlanIeee8021qTaggingEnable variable. 2. Set the value of this parameter to enable. The VLAN configuration is enabled. 3.
