Section 2

Basic Product Structure

Units from the Netopia Cayman-series Gateway family are supplied in

many configurations. This presents end-users with many alternatives for

Wide Area Network (WAN) interfaces and Local Area Network (LAN) inter-

faces. This is the current product roster that supports COS 6.3:

What’s New in Version 6.3

The new features for COS 6.3 are:

New Embedded Web Server

Not only is the look and feel different, but the database and the web server

engine are new and more flexible.

The design of the new web server is geared to make navigation easier, pro-

viding the most commonly used items first. Context-sensitive help is pro-

vided.

Maintenance Enhancements

The maintenance enhancements are:

Computer Names

In addition to the IP address, the computer name is now listed in the DHCP

lease table and the WAN users table. This allows users to more easily iden-

tify the computers in these tables. The computer name is only known if

using DHCP to get its IP address.

Updater

This application, Updater Version 1.1, prepares the Gateway for installation

of COS 6.3

Updater V 1.1 is required for users running COS 5.6.2 or lower.

For complete details see

page 84

of this document.

802.1

1b W

ireless Update

Improved software to support 802.11b wireless base stations response to

client requests made after an extended period of LAN inactivity.

NIST UTC Reference Signal

Cayman Gateways acquire the Universal Coordinated Time reference signal

from the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This provides

date and time information for log entries.

Section 3

General

This section describes the principal features of Cayman Operating System

version 6.3. The information is grouped by usage area.

General

Feature Keys

Certain functionality in this release is controlled through software feature

keys. These keys are proprietary files with the following properties:

•

They are specific to the serial number of the target unit.

•

Once installed, and the Gateway restarted, the desired enhancement is

enabled, which then allows full access to:

–

Configuration

–

Operation

–

Maintenance

–

Administration

•

They will

not

enable the desired feature on a unit with the

wrong

serial

number.

–

They are rejected upon “Restart”,

not

when the file is downloaded.

Enhanced capabilities requiring a feature key include:

•

Tiered Operating System

•

Security Monitoring Log

•

BreakWater Basic Firewall

•

SafeHarbour IPSec Tunnel Termination

Overview of Major Capabilities

Section 3

Many Netopia Cayman-series Gateways ship with particular feature key

sets pre-enabled. You can check the feature keys enabled on your Gate-

way in the System Status web page. See

“System Status” on page 101.

Section 3

General

Management

Embedded W

eb Server

There is no specialized client software required to configure, manage, or

maintain your Cayman Gateway. Web pages embedded in the operating

system provide access to the following Gateway operations:

•

Setup

•

System and security logs

•

Diagnostics functions

Once you have removed your Cayman Gateway from its packing container

and powered the unit up, use any LAN attached PC or workstation running

a common web browser application to configure and monitor the Gate-

way.

Diagnostics

In addition to the Gateway’s visual LED indicators, you access an extensive

suite of diagnostic facilities by browsing to the unit.

Two of the facilities are:

•

Automated “Multi-Layer” Test

The

Run Diagnostics

link initiates a sequence of tests. They examine the

functionality of the Gateway, from the physical connections (OSI Layer 1) to

the application traffic (OSI Layer 7).

•

Network Test Tools

Three test tools to determine network reachability are available:

–

Ping

- tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by

sending an ICMP echo request and waiting for a reply.

–

TraceRoute

- displays the path to a destination by showing the

number of hops and the router addresses of these hops.

–

NSLookup

- converts a domain name to its IP address and vice

versa.

The system log also provides diagnostic information.

Your Service Provider may request information that you acquire from

these various diagnostic tools. Individual tests may be performed at the

command line. (See Appendix A).
