Scannex ip.buffer User Manual

1 . I n tr o d u c t io n
1.1. The Range
The ip.buffer is designed to collect and store information from such devices as telephone
PBXs – for CDR/SMDR collection, for alarm and traffic management, and to allow pass-
through access for moves and changes.
The product range includes three main devices:
•ip- = 128Mbyte memory with serial ports
•ip-1 = 32Mbyte memory with 1 serial port
The ip- device includes internal temperature monitoring, built in global or GPRS modem,
plus the SEbus expansion connector. They also have an option for 8VDC power (see Section
21). They are both built inside a metal box that can be rack mounted in a 1U high bay.
The ip-1 device has an optional global PSTN or GPRS modem and is housed in a plastic
casing with facilities for wall mounting, tie-wrapping, and DIN rail mounting.
All three devices allow battery backup using 3 standard AA NiMH batteries. With fully
charged cells the unit can continue to operate for approximately 2 hours.
1.2. Features
All devices have proprietary Scannex features and advanced facilities:
•Collection
oAuto pin detection on the serial ports1
oAuto baud rate and protocol detection on the serial ports
oCollection from serial and TCP/IP enabled devices2
oCollection from devices that perform FTP push
oCollection of UDP data including syslog information, SNMP Traps (with trap
decoding and SNMP get queries on connected devices), and
RADIUS Accounting
oSupport for ASCII, Binary and iSDX data sources
oAutomatic partitioning of NAND flash memory with optional settings for
limiting memory sizes of each channel
•Various delivery options including:
oHTTP/HTTPS post to web Cloud Server
oFTP/SFTP push
oFTP server
1 The detection is performed using voltage sensing, so the ip.buffer can detect whether the data
source is DCE or DTE wired even with no data
2 Each ip.buffer can collect data from as many TCP/IP devices as there are serial ports. Each
channel can be assigned to either the serial port or a TCP/IP or UDP/IP collection.

oEmail/SMTP push
oTCP/IP push
oTCP/IP server
oCOM port serial
•LAN and management features
oFully web-based setup and status information
o“Reflective Routing” on the LAN to allow easy access from different subnets3
oEmail, HTTP POST, and SNMP alert mechanisms to enable a pro-active
system
oExtremely powerful Lua4 scripting engine
oSNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) time synchronisation with daylight
saving option
oSettings can be quickly replicated across multiple ip.buffers for bulk
installations
oAll changes to the settings occur immediately – no need for reboot5
oFully fail-safe firmware upgrades. The power can fail at any point in the
upgrade process and the ip.buffer will recover with the old version (or the
new version if successfully uploaded).
oSimple SNMP v1/v2c agent to provide inventory information to SNMP clients
oCentralised updates via standard web-server (See section Error: Reference
source not found)
oSupports Proxy servers running HTTP, SOCKS 5 and SOCKS a protocols.
•Security features
oOption to authenticate to one or two RADIUS servers
ohttps (SSL) access for web pages (optional) (See section 8.2.12)
oSSL/TLS link encryption for HTTP post, FTP, email, and TCP connections
(optional) (See section 11)
oSFTP/SSH encryption for SFTP push (See section 11. )
oAdditional Scannex 0-bit encryption for further security of the transported
data
3 In practise it means you do not have to have a gateway address, or the correct gateway,
programmed in the ip.buffer when connecting into it for web services and the like.
4 See www.lua.org However, several extensions have been applied to the Lua base.
5 Even Lua script changes can occur while the ip.buffer is still running

1.3. Block Diagrams
1.3.1. System Overview
Conceptual view of the ip.buffer (ip. -128m):
The ip.buffer is “channel based” with each channel allowing separate collection and
delivery methods.

1.3.2. Source
The four source collection modules run independently. Each source can collect from a
different source device, and the ip.buffer allows any mix of serial, TCP, UDP or FTP across
the four channels.
Although the ip.buffer is “channel based” with custom Lua scripting it is possible to send
data across to other channels. For example, one physical data source (e.g. COM port) may
contain a mixture of CDR, and Alarms information – custom Lua scripting can split this
information into two channel storage areas.

1.3.3. Destination
The four destination delivery modules also run independently. Each destination can deliver
using a different method. Or, they can use the same method (e.g. FTP Push) but deliver to
a different central server. Each channel can be configured to use any combination of
LAN/WAN/DSL or Modem interfaces.

1.4. Firmware
The firmware is available in two variants:
1.4.1. Crypto Free
The Crypto-Free firmware variant has no SSL/TLS options or code. It is provided to comply
with certain export/import restrictions around the world. Even if the internal configuration
requests SSL/TLS it will not use SSL/TLS – the cipher code is not built into this firmware
version.
The firmware is labelled IPBCFx.xx.xx where x.xx.xx is the version number.
The version number at the footer of each web page will have the marking “IPBCF”.
The CF / Crypto-free version will not show any of the SSL/TLS options on the
web setup pages.
1.4.2. SSL
The SSL firmware variant has full SSL/TLS6 code and web options.
The firmware is labelled IPBSSLx.xx.xx where x.xx.xx is the version number.
It is your responsibility to check with your country’s current laws before
downloading and using the SSL firmware variant in the ip.buffer! Some
countries have severe penalties – you ave been warned! Additionally, if you
are re-exporting an ip.buffer you must comply with all local export
regulations. Scannex can assume no liability or responsibility for the use or
misuse of the SSL variant.
In addition, the SSL version includes facilities for generating RSA certificates, as well as
tools to upload device and vendor certificates and keys.
The version number at the footer of each web page will have the marking “IPBSSL”.
6 SSL version 3 (with support for SSL version 2 “hello”) and TLS version 1.0
