ADTRAN Positioning
ADTRAN Positioning
2009 ADTRAN
The wide and diverse line of ADTRAN products positions them well for many different
applications. When selling or considering devices for a network, leverage ADTRAN
products when competitors are proposing an identical CPE solution, when margins are at
risk due to keen competition, when customers demand a lower total cost of ownership
with an improved return on investment, or when applications fall outside traditional
requirements.
1-8
The ADTRAN Bottom Line
The ADTRAN Bottom Line
2009 ADTRAN
Using ADTRAN products reduces implementation and management complexity. Many

of the products have integrated capabilities such as switching, routing, firewall and VPN
all in one device. This means there are fewer devices to install and manage, fewer devices
to train the staff on, and fewer devices to buy, providing the customer a lower total cost
of ownership. ADTRAN also offers free firmware upgrades for the life of the product,
free pre- and post-sales technical support, an industry leading warranty, and an initial
lower cost of entry. ADTRAN's fully featured, competitive products are truly Smart
Solutions for a Connected World!

2009 ADTRAN
The NetVanta 1000 Series of Ethernet switches is a family of managed Fast Ethernet,
Power over Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and Layer 3 switches. This portfolio of businessclass switching solutions is perfect for Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) or
multi-site enterprise networks. These cost-efficient solutions range in port count from 24
to 48 ports and address todays highest networking priorities, including bandwidth
expansion, Voice over IP (VoIP), Gigabit-to-the-desktop, and network security.
2-5
2009 ADTRAN
The NetVanta Fast Ethernet switches include either 24 or 48 auto-sensing 10/100 BaseT
Fast Ethernet ports and 4 Gigabit uplink ports. This group of switches includes the
NetVanta 1234 and NetVanta 1238. These switches are designed for fast, secure, costeffective LAN switching, and are perfect for VoIP applications by using robust Quality of
Service (QoS) features.
2-6
Gigabit Switches
Gigabit Switches
2009 ADTRAN
Ideal for new installations or network upgrades, the Gigabit Ethernet switches can
provide higher bandwidth for corporate and branch office LANs to support todays most
bandwidth intensive applications. The NetVanta 1534 is offered in this category of
switches and is available as a PoE version as well.
2-7
Layer 3 Switches
Layer 3 Switches
2009 ADTRAN
Within the LAN environment, a Layer 3 switch makes intelligent switching decisions
based on the OSI Layer 3 source and destination addresses, similar to that of a router. A
standard Layer 2 switch relies on the MAC addresses to make switching decisions. The
fundamental difference between the two is that a Layer 3 switch offers more performance
than that of a standard Layer 2 switch. The NetVanta 1335 is ADTRAN's Layer 3
switch.
The NetVanta 1335 Multiservice Access Router is a performance-enhanced platform that
addresses the needs of multiple networking devices in a single compact platform. The
NetVanta 1335 integrates a modular IP access router with a wireless access point, 24-port
Layer 3 Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch, firewall, VPN appliance, and DSU/CSU, all
in one platform. In addition, the NetVanta 1335 delivers the throughput required for IP
telephony, corporate connectivity, and Internet access, even with advanced services
enabled like VQM, QoS, NAT, and firewall.
2-8
PoE Switches
PoE Switches
2009 ADTRAN
NetVanta Power over Ethernet (PoE) switching products provide a lower-cost, futureproof switching solution that eliminates the need for extra in-house wiring to
accommodate LAN-powered devices. PoE-enabled NetVanta models save time and
expense by eliminating the need for external power sources for IP phones, Wireless
Access Points (WAPs), IP surveillance cameras, and other 802.3af or legacy powered
devices. These products also offer power conservation. The NetVanta 1234, 1238, and
1534 are all offered in PoE versions. A PoE indication at the end of the product name
indicates the product includes PoE support.

All the Internetworking products use a version of the AOS.

Data routers use the numbered AOS firmware (16.1, 17.1, etc.), while the IP Business
Gateways and IP Telephony products that support both data and IP voice use the voice
version of the firmware that supports all the data features found in the other routers, as
well as IP voice features. This firmware is labeled with an 'A' in front of the version
number (for example A.1.01).
There are two different versions of data firmware available for the devices - the Standard
Feature Pack firmware, and the Enhanced Feature Pack firmware. The Standard Feature
Pack firmware includes all of the IP switching, routing, QoS, and firewall capabilities.
The only thing NOT included in the standard feature pack firmware is IPSec VPN
support. This functionality is added through the Enhanced Feature Pack firmware. The
Enhanced Feature Pack firmware includes everything offered by the Standard Feature
Pack, PLUS IPSec VPN support.
The voice firmware (indicated with an "A" in front of the version number) only has one
standard version of firmware that has VPN built in. This firmware is used by IP Business
Gateways and IP Telephony products.

Before we look at any actual NetVanta or AOS Internetworking products, let's take a look
at the many features and functions supported by the AOS firmware that is installed in
these products. All the Internetworking products use a version of the AOS.
3-5
NetVanta Protocol Support
NetVanta Protocol Support
2009 ADTRAN
In order for a router to establish a connection to another device and send traffic to it, it
must use protocols to communicate with others in the network. The AOS routers support
a variety of protocols. For Wide Area Network connections, the routers support ATM,
Frame Relay, Multilink Frame Relay, Point-to-Point Protocol, Multilink Point to Point
Protocol, Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet, Point to Point Protocol over ATM, RFC
1483, and HDLC.
Once the wide area connection is established, a router needs to know how to send
information to the correct destination. Routes to different networks must be learned by
the router. These routes can be learned through static routes that an administrator
manually enters, or through dynamic routing protocols, that allow the router to share
route information with other routers in the network. The AOS routers support the use of
static routes and dynamic routing protocols including the Routing Information Protocol,
or RIP, versions 1 and 2, Open Shortest Path First, or OSPF, Border Gateway Protocol, or
BGP, GRE, or Generic Route Encapsulation, and PIM Sparse mode.
Once the WAN connection is up and the router knows where to send the traffic, it can
then route that traffic to other destinations. The type of traffic it can route is Internet
Protocol, or IP, traffic. If other types of traffic need to traverse the router, Layer 2
bridging may be configured. The AOS routers can route and bridge traffic
simultaneously.
3-6
Firewall
Firewall
2009 ADTRAN
Firewall support is provided by a stateful packet inspection firewall. Besides keeping

track of the state of each outbound connection, the firewall also provides cyber assault
protection to protect the internal network from known cyber attacks. When the firewall is
enabled, Access Control Lists (ACLs) and Access Control Policies (ACPs) may be
created to specifically allow or block certain traffic or users as well. NAT, or Network
Address Translation is also supported when the firewall is enabled. It allows internal
private IP addresses to be hidden from the public domain. Various types of NAT are
supported, including Basic NAT, Network Address Port Translation, and Port
Forwarding. ALGs, or Application Level Gateways are also included to allow the router
to process traffic that is otherwise broken by use of the firewall. One such ALG is a
NAT-compatible SIP application level gateway that allows IP Voice to work in
conjunction with the NAT enabled firewall.
3-7
VLAN Support
VLAN Support
2009 ADTRAN
When using an AOS access router in conjunction with a switch, 802.1Q VLAN trunking
is supported on the router Ethernet interface. This allows the router to create subinterfaces on an Ethernet port which may then carry multiple VLANs over the single
physical interface, enabling the ability to route between VLANs with a single connection
to an Ethernet switch.
3-8
QoS
QoS
2009 ADTRAN
Quality of Service, or QoS, is used to give priority to delay-sensitive traffic such as voice
over IP or video applications. The AOS products offer several QoS features to allow
these types of applications to seamlessly traverse the network. Router WAN interfaces
support Layer 3 Quality of Service. This includes weighted fair queuing, class based
weighted fair queuing, and low latency queuing. Layer 3 DiffServ Packet Marking and
recognition is also supported.
Switch interfaces support Layer 2 QoS. This includes weighted round robin queuing,
strict priority queuing or a combination of the two with Weighted Round Robin with
Expedite. The AOS switches recognize 802.1p priority bits which are presented in the
802.1Q VLAN tag. The switches can also tag data with configured 802.1p priority
information.
3-9
Optional VPN
Optional VPN
2009 ADTRAN
So far, all the features we have talked about are included in the Standard Feature Pack
firmware. When using the optional Enhanced Feature Pack Firmware, it includes all of
the options we just discussed, but also adds support for IPSec Virtual Private Networks.
The AOS routers support the MD5 or SHA-1 Hashing algorithms, DES, 3DES, or AES
encryption, Diffie-Helman groups 1 and 2, authentication of devices and users, and
automatic key management through the use of IKE, or Internet Key Exchange Protocol.
The number of VPN tunnels supported varies by product.
3-10
Voice Support
Voice Support
2009 ADTRAN
Several AOS products include SIP support and analog interfaces for IP voice
applications. These include the ADTRAN IP Business Gateway products and the IP
Telephony products using the voice version of the AOS firmware. The voice version of
firmware includes all the features present in the data firmware, as well as additional
analog and IP voice support.
3-11
Analog Support
Analog Support
2009 ADTRAN
All of the ADTRAN IP Business Gateway products and IP Telephony products have one
or more built-in analog interfaces. These may be FXS interfaces, FXO interfaces, or a
combination. They support the G.711 and G.729a CODECs, and up to 48 simultaneous
channels (depending on the model). Media Stream support includes RTP/UDP/IP, RTP
payload for DTMF digits, Point to Point hairpin calls, and SDP.

Voice Quality Monitoring
Voice Quality Monitoring
2009 ADTRAN
Voice Quality Monitoring allows the NetVanta to make real-time quality measurements
on all SIP-signaled RTP VoIP calls through the unit. Voice Quality Monitoring captures
MOS, jitter, delay, and packet loss.These measurements provide live and historical
performance data on a per-call basis. The measurements are also correlated to network
interfaces on the unit to help identify if a given network is contributing to quality
degradation. The measurements are available for reporting to a central collection server
in a variety of different means. Voice Quality Monitoring is supported in the NetVanta
1335, 3120, 3130, 6355, 900 and 900e, and 7100 products. It is also supported in the
NetVanta 3448, 3430, 4305, and 5305 when the Enhanced Feature Pack firmware is used.

Multi-VRF Customer Edge
Multi-VRF Customer Edge
2009 ADTRAN
Multiple VPN Routing and Forwarding on a Customer Edge router allows a single router
to be partitioned into multiple route tables, IP addresses, etc. The VRF-aware DHCP
server and firewall allows each virtual router to also utilize NAT, firewall functionality,
and to assign IP addresses. Multi-VRF-CE is supported in the NetVanta 1335, 3448,
3305, 3430, 4305, 5305 and 6355.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol
Virtual Router Redundancy

Protocol
2009 ADTRAN
Policy Based Routing (PBR) allows you to manipulate the path a packet follows, based
on characteristics of that packet. By defeault, routers forward packets based on their
destination address along. When using PBR, packets may be routed based on priority,
source IP address, or size. PBR can also be used to alter a packet's IP header for QoS
purposes. PBR is supported in the NetVanta 1335, 3120, 3130, 3305, 3430, 3448, 4305,
and 5305.

WLAN Controller
WLAN Controller
2009 ADTRAN
Wireless LANs (WLANs) replace Layer 1 transmission media, such as CAT 5 cabling,
with radio transmissions that allow wireless user connectivity and the extension of a
wired network. ADTRAN creates WLANs by adding one or more AOS access points
(APs) to an access controller (AC). The AC is a router or switch that controls and
configures the behavior of the AP. The NetVanta 150 is ADTRAN's standalone access
point. The NetVanta 3rd gen 3200/3205, 3120, 3130, 3430, 3448, 1335, 4305, 5305,
6355, 7100 and the Total Access 900 Series may all act as WLAN access controllers.
Each ADTRAN AC can control up to 8 or 24 AOS APs using the ADTRAN Wireless
Control Protocol (AWCP) to communicate with them.
3-18
Websense and URL Content Filtering
Websense and URL Content

Filtering
2009 ADTRAN
Websense with URL content filtering enables the NetVanta to integrate with the
Websense web content filtering software to filter web content based on a unified
resource locator (URL). This allows you to prevent users from accessing specified
websites based on settings defined on a Websense server.This feature is available in the
NetVanta 1335, 3448, 3305, 3430, 4305, 5305, 3120, and 3130.
3-19
Traffic Monitoring (NetFlow9)
Traffic Monitoring
(NetFlow 9)
2009 ADTRAN
Traffic monitoring is a method of tracking traffic flow patterns over both incoming and
outgoing interfaces. Traffic flow data is collected and sent via NetFlow 9 (defined by
RFC 768) over UDP to either an external data collector or through the internal Top
Talkers data collector. Using the Top Talkers data collector, the traffic flows are analyzed
and presented in an intuitive graphic. By monitoring traffic flows, decisions can be made
regarding traffic engineering, traffic profiling, security measures, and quality of service
issues. Traffic monitoring with NetFlow 9 is supported by the NetVanta 340, 344, 1524,
1335, 3448, 3305, 3430, 4305, 5305, 3120, 3130, 6355, 7100, and the Total Access 900
and 900e series.
3-20
Network Monitoring (L3 Backup)
Network Monitoring (L3

Backup)
2009 ADTRAN
The Network Monitor feature allows for backup of layer 3 connections, such as the one
shown here. It is common for businesses to have more than one connection to the Internet
for increase reliability and minimize downtime. A common way to accomplish this is by
using Ethernet, such as cable, DSL, or fiber connections. Since the router is then
connected to an intermediary device such as a cable modem, the router will not
acknowledge a connection problem between the cable modem and Internet as long as the
connection between the router and cable modem is still active. This would mean the
router would not switch to an available backup connection. In order to address this,
network monitor uses ping probes to ping a certain destination from a source IP at a
specified interval. When the probe starts failing and hits a user specified threshold, the
router can take action to remove the route and cause traffic to be diverted elsewhere.
When the primary link becomes active again, the router will add the route back to the
route table, causing traffic to switch back to the original route. Network monitor is
supported in the NetVanta 1335, 1355, 3120, 3130, 3305, 3430, 3448, 4305, 5305, and
7100.
3-21
Management Options
Management Options
2009 ADTRAN
In order to manage the AOS Internetworking devices, and configure the features we just
discussed, there are several options. One option is to enter configuration commands
through the command line interface, or CLI. Many users are already familiar with this
type of programming interface, and ADTRAN's CLI mimics the de facto industry
standard. This feature eliminates training costs normally associated with learning a new
operating system. Configuration scripts can be downloaded to a unit through this
interface, as well as testing and monitoring of the device. Remote management is also
available by accessing the command line interface through a Telnet Session. The
products also support SNMP and are capable of logging events to a syslog.
3-22
Web GUI
Web GUI
2009 ADTRAN
The other main configuration option is through the built-in Web GUI, or graphical user
interface. For users not familiar with the command line interface, the GUI provides an
intuitive graphical menu and configuration wizards to aid in configuring and managing
the device. The GUI may be accessed through an IP connection to the AOS product.
Simply type the NetVanta IP address in any web browser address bar.
3-23
Management Options
Management Options
2009 ADTRAN
Another management tool available for the AOS Internetworking products is nCommand. n-Command is a suite of network productivity tools for AOS-based networks.
It aids IT administrators in daily network operation and configuration by allowing them
to discover devices, make mass configuration changes, backup and restore device
configurations, upgrade firmware to groups of devices, globally modify Access Control
Lists (ACLs), and generate inventory reports for asset management. A 5 user version of
n-Command may be downloaded free of charge at www.adtran.com/ncommand, or by

Connecting to the Unit
Connecting to the Unit
2009 ADTRAN
There are two main ways to manage the NetVanta Internetworking Devices - through the
Web GUI interface, or through the command line interface. You may access the
command line interface through either a Telnet or direct connection. We will discuss
configuring the NetVanta Internetworking Devices using a direct console connection to
access the command line interface. To connect directly from your PC or laptop, you will
need a male to female DB-9 straight-through serial cable. Plug one end to the COM port
on your PC and the other end to the NetVanta console interface.
4-5
Connection Settings
Connection Settings
2009 ADTRAN
You can then connect to the NetVanta using any VT100 emulation program on your PC.
The communication settings for your session should be a data rate of 9600, 8 data bits, no
parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control. Press enter on your keyboard and you should then
be connected to the unit.

Help Tools
Help Tools
2009 ADTRAN
As we discuss the different configuration modes in the command line, remember that
several help tools are available for navigating the ADTRAN operating system. A
question mark will list available commands in any mode. You can also use the question
mark after a letter to show all available commands that start with that letter, or you may
also use a question mark after a word to show the next parameter that follows that
command. The tab key will auto finish any non-ambiguous command for you.
4-8
Command Security Modes
Command Security Modes
2009 ADTRAN
There are two command security modes, each one supporting a specific set of commands.
When you first log into the unit, you will be in basic mode. From this mode, you can
perform basic ICMP tasks such as ping and traceroute. Enable mode may be entered from
basic mode by typing the word 'enable' at the basic prompt. From enable mode, you have
more menu options and control access to the unit. Enable mode also allows you to enter
configuration modes in order to make unit configuration changes.
4-9
Global Configuration Mode
Global Configuration Mode
2009 ADTRAN
From Enable mode, you may enter global configuration mode. The global configuration
mode allows the user to make changes that are global to the NetVanta and not specific to
one interface. A configuration change made in global configuration mode would affect all
the enabled interfaces in the device.
4-10
Line Configuration Mode
Line Configuration Mode
2009 ADTRAN
Line configuration mode is used to configure console and Telnet access into the device.
Specific passwords and configurations may be assigned to these interfaces through line

Router Configuration Mode
2009 ADTRAN
Router configuration mode is used to configure routing parameters on the device. This
would include the routing protocol that the router is to use and any configuration
necessary for that protocol.
4-12
Interface Configuration Mode
Interface Configuration Mode
2009 ADTRAN
Interface configuration mode is used to assign interface specific parameters to a particular

interface. This could include interface IP addresses, bandwidth statements, or any other
specific interface commands. You must also be in interface configuration mode to enable
the interfaces for use.
4-13
Exiting Configuration Modes
Exiting Configuration Modes

4-14
NetVanta Flash Memory
NetVanta Flash Memory
2009 ADTRAN
When working with the NetVanta configurations, you may find you want to save the
configuration you create. There are several types of memory in the NetVanta to allow for
this. Flash memory encompasses storage for boot code, compressed application code,
saved configurations, and startup-configuration. Everything in Flash is saved when the
unit is powered down. The NetVanta also has the ability to save different user defined
configurations in Flash that may be loaded into the running-configuration in RAM.
4-15
NetVanta RAM
NetVanta RAM
2009 ADTRAN
RAM, or random access memory, contains a running copy of the application code, a
running copy of the active configuration file, and is cleared when the NetVanta is
powered down. The actual compressed application code is stored in Flash, but is
uncompressed and stored here in RAM upon bootup. Changes to the runningconfiguration are also stored here. Remember that RAM is not automatically saved when
the unit is powered down, so it is important to save any configuration changes that you
wish to keep to your startup-configuration, which is stored in NVRAM, or Flash.
4-16
NetVanta Compact Flash
NetVanta Compact Flash
2009 ADTRAN
Some NetVanta products include a Compact Flash (CF) slot. The CF slot supports a
small flash memory module. The memory chips are enclosed in a plastic case and retain
data after they are removed from the system. The compact flash card may be used to store
configuration files and AOS images.
4-17
Show Commands
Show Commands
2009 ADTRAN
To view the contents of these memory locations, we can use the show command. Show
commands can be very useful configuration and diagnostic tools. They typically are used
to show status or configuration information in the NetVanta. Most of the show commands
are available from the enable mode of the unit. You may view available show commands
from the enable prompt by typing the word 'show' followed by a question mark. Show
commands may be executed from global or interface configuration modes by typing the
word 'do ' in front of the show command.
4-18
Show Flash Command
Show Flash Command
2009 ADTRAN
The 'show flash' command can be executed from the enable security mode and shows
what is currently stored in the flash portion of NVRAM. In this output, the nv5305a-0700-22.biz file is an application image, or the firmware. There is also a second application
image stored here in flash, the nv5305a-07-01-01-E.biz file. Generally, any application
images will have a .biz extension. As shown here, there may be multiple image files
stored in flash with a .biz extension, so to see which image is currently being used by the
NetVanta, you would need to use the 'show version' command that is available in basic
security mode.
4-19
Show Startup-config
Show Startup-config
2009 ADTRAN
To show the contents of the startup-config file, use the command 'show startup-config'.
The startup-config file is stored in Flash and will be listed line by line to the command
line output when executing this command. If no startup-config file exists, the NetVanta
will show a message stating that the 'File does not exist.'
4-20
Show Startup-config
Show Running-config
2009 ADTRAN
To show the contents of the running-config file, use the command 'show runningconfig'. The running-config file is stored in RAM and will be listed line by line to the
command line output when executing this command. The running-config file shows the
configuration that is currently being used by the active unit. It is possible, and in fact
likely, that the running-config does not match the contents of the startup-config file if
changes have been made to the configuration. Remember that for changes to be saved,
you must use the 'copy run start' command to save the running configuration into
NVRAM. The running-config file will be cleared when the unit is powered down.
4-21
Saving Configuration
Saving Configuration
2009 ADTRAN
As just mentioned, the running configuration is not saved when the router is powered
down. In order to save any changes that were made to the configuration since the unit
was powered on, you must copy the running configuration into the startup configuration
file in NVRAM. The 'copy running-config startup-config' command, or 'copy run
start', can be used to save these changes. The 'write memory' command may also be
used to save the running-config to the startup-config file located in NVRAM. The key to
successfully transferring files in the NetVanta is to first specify where you want to
transfer the file from and then where you want to transfer it to.
4-22
Telnet Configuration Steps
Telnet Configuration Steps
2009 ADTRAN
So far, we have used the console interface to access the command line. Now that we have
discussed some of the basic configuration modes, we know enough to configure Telnet
access. There are 4 main steps to configuring Telnet access in the NetVanta.
4-23
Telnet Configuration Step 1
2009 ADTRAN
First we must configure an IP address on the Ethernet or VLAN interface, as that is the
interface we will be connecting to our PC network interface card. Starting from the basic
prompt, we would enter 'enable' which takes us to the enable mode. From there we type
'configure terminal' to get to global configuration mode. In a NetVanta router, we would
then type 'interface Ethernet 0/1' which takes us to Ethernet interface in slot 0, port 1.
On a NetVanta switch product, we configure an IP address on the VLAN interface, so we
would type 'interface vlan 1'. From either of these modes we use the 'ip address'
command to enter a valid IP address and subnet mask associated with this interface.

The next step is to enable the Ethernet or VLAN interface. By default, all the interfaces
on the NetVanta are administratively down. To enable the interface we type 'no
shutdown'.
4-25
2009 ADTRAN
The next step in Telnet configuration is to configure a Telnet password. Telnet specific
options are configured in the line configuration mode. We can access line configuration
mode from interface configuration mode by typing 'line telnet 0'. There are 5
simultaneous Telnet sessions available, 0 through 4. This specifies that we want to
configure one Telnet session - session 0. To set a password for the Telnet session we use
the 'password ' command, followed by the password we wish to use. In this example, we
are setting the password to adtran.
4-26
2009 ADTRAN
Finally, in order to Telnet to the NetVanta, we must have an enable password set. The
enable password is set from global configuration mode and adds some security to your
router. Remember that in order to access configuration modes, you must first access the
enable mode. The enable password prompts the NetVanta to ask the user for a password
before they are able to enter enable mode and thus make any configuration changes.
From global configuration mode, we use the 'enable password' command followed by
the password we want to use. Here we will set the enable password to router.

Configuring Access to the Web GUI
Configuring Access to the

Web GUI
2009 ADTRAN
With just a few additional steps, we can also configure access to the Web GUI. There are
3 necessary steps to configure web GUI Access. First you will enable the http server in
the NetVanta. Next, configure a username and password for logging in to the NetVanta,
and finally, assign an IP address to the Ethernet or VLAN interface. We already learned
how to configure the IP address for Telnet access. To enable the http server, simply type
'ip http server' from global configuration mode. To configure a username and password,
type 'username' followed by the username, and then the word 'password' followed by the
password you wish to use.
4-29
Logging into the Web GUI
Logging in to the Web GUI
2009 ADTRAN
To log into the web GUI, use a PC connected to the same network or with a route to the
NetVanta, and open any web browser. Type the IP address you assigned to the Ethernet
or VLAN interface in the address bar of the web browser, and you will be prompted for a
username and password. This is the username and password you configured in the second
configuration step. Once this information is entered, you will have access to the web
configuration GUI. For the purposes of these lessons, we will use the command line
interface.
4-30
Saving Configurations
Saving Configurations
2009 ADTRAN
Earlier we talked about how to save a configuration file to the flash memory in the
NetVanta. You might also want to save a copy of your configuration on an external
server. Files can be stored simply for backup or you may change the configuration text
file to match similar networks and load the configuration in other NetVanta devices. To
save the running configuration to a TFTP server, simply type 'copy running-config tftp'.
The NetVanta will then prompt you for the IP address of the TFTP server and ask what
you want to name the file on the server. Similarly, you can transfer the startup-config file
to a TFTP server by typing 'copy startup-config TFTP ' at the enable prompt. Again,
remember first to specify where you are copying from, followed by where you are
copying to.
4-31
Upgrading Software Image
2009 ADTRAN
Upgrades to the firmware may also be done through a TFTP transfer. As new firmware is
released, there may be new added features that you wish to add to your NetVanta. In
order to upgrade the firmware, you must first download the firmware file from the
ADTRAN website. Once you have the file on your TFTP server, you may transfer it to
the unit by typing 'copy tftp flash' at the enable prompt. You will be asked to enter the
address of the TFTP server, the source filename, and then what you want to name the file
when it is transferred to flash.
4-32
2009 ADTRAN
Once the firmware file has been loaded into the NetVanta Flash memory, it is still not
currently active. In order to load the firmware into the unit, we must tell the unit to use
that firmware the next time it goes through the boot process. From Global Config mode,
use the command 'boot system flash' followed by the firmware you want to load. You
may also specify a backup firmware file to use if the primary file will not boot. After you
have entered this command, the next time the unit is rebooted, it will attempt to use the
specified firmware file. To verify the new firmware has been loaded, the 'show version'
command is used from the enable prompt. This and the other commands we have
discussed in this section will help you with basic configuration and management of your
NetVanta product. Continue on to the "Connecting to the NetVanta Router" lab where
you will have an opportunity to try some of these commands. For this lab, we chose to
use the NetVanta 4305, but remember that these commands would be the same on any
NetVanta router product.

In this lesson, we will discuss n-Command - ADTRAN's device management solution.

We will define what n-Command is and what functions it performs, including which
ADTRAN products are supported, value provided by the software, and what services are
offered by n-Command. We will then look at specific features available including folder
management, configuration management, firmware management and the ACL manager.
Finally, we will look at various additional features.

ADTRAN Management Solutions
ADTRAN Management
Solutions
2009 ADTRAN
ADTRAN products have several means of configuration and management. One method
of individual device configuration may be done through a familiar industry standard CLI.
Many of the ADTRAN Internetworking products also have a built-in web GUI that
provides an easy graphical representation of the device configuration. These methods
may be all that is needed if only a few devices need to be configured, installed, and
managed; however, when multiple devices are being deployed n-Command may be used
to configure and manage large numbers of devices easily and efficiently.
5-5
Module 5: n-Command
n-CommandWhat is it?
n-CommandWhat is it?
2009 ADTRAN
n-Command is best described as a suite of productivity tools that help IT departments

save time and money on daily network operations. It is designed to facilitate global
device activities such as firmware upgrades, configuration changes, configuration
backups, and asset management. Keep in mind that n-Command is not a network
management system that monitors performance, detects alarms, or provides performance
reports. Instead, it complements an NMS that may already exist, since it focuses on
features that an NMS does not support.
5-6
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Product Support
n-Command Product Support
2009 ADTRAN
n-Command works with all the ADTRAN NetVanta AOS products, the Total Access 900
series, and the Total Access 600/850 series, when using the add-on module.
5-7
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Value
n-Command Value
2009 ADTRAN
n-Command provides value to both resellers and end-users. Resellers can use nCommand to enhance thier selling position, making an ADTRAN solution more
compelling to the end user. The n-Command software is very affordable, intuitively easy
to use, and provides valuable functionality to the end-user. If the customer does not have
the staff necessary to manage their network using n-Command, the reseller could also
offer value-added Managed Services to the customer using n-Command to manage their
network for them.

Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Services Offered
n-Command Services Offered
2009 ADTRAN
Let's talk more about some of the specific features offered by n-Command. Oftentimes,
companies will keep an inventory of products in the network. n-Command provides a
quick and easy way to collect device part numbers, serial numbers, firmware revisions,
and boot code revisions of network devices. This information can then be periodically
formatted into an Excel spreadsheet inventory. n-Command is also a great tool for
managing configuration files in the ADTRAN AOS devices. Using n-Command,
configuration changes can be made quickly to multiple devices in the network, and a log
is kept showing activity that has occurred for each individual device. Configuration
backups may also be scheduled and performed. n-Command can periodically save a copy
of each current device configuration and monitor for changes in the startup and running
config files. If differences are found, n-Command can be configured to send an email
notification, alerting you of a configuration change. Using the backup configuration files,
n-Command can easily restore a previous saved configuration based on a date or event to
one or multiple devices. Firmware updates may also be done through n-Command. The
software will notify customers when a new firmware revision is available for their
devices and then allow them to update the firmware on one or many devices from a
central location, avoiding a technician deployment to each site.

Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Architecture and Support
n-Command Architecture and

Support
2009 ADTRAN
n-Command is a based on a modular architecture that allows for future applications to be

added through enhanced feature modules. As new features and product support are added,
a simple add-on module allows existing n-Command users to add these benefits. nCommand is a client/server platform that runs on any Windows 2000, XP, or 2003
operating system. A central server runs the n-Command application and up to 11
simultaneous remote clients may access the user-friendly GUI at one time. n-Command
will also scale to fit your growing network. Up to 10,000+ devices may be managed with
the software.
5-10
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Users
n-Command Users
2009 ADTRAN
Users accessing n-Command may be classified into different roles, with different
privileges. Root users are those that may create other Root Users and Admins, and have
full access to all features of the software. The Admin user may create other Admins or
users and has access to perform all configuration and push features, allowing these users
to make any saves or changes available in the software. Users classified only as "users"
may be set to a view only or unit manage mode. These "users" have no privileges to make
configuration changes. Specific privileges may also be configured on a per-folder basis.
5-11
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Device Discovery
n-Command Device
Discovery
2009 ADTRAN
Users can discover AOS-based and other network devices by an IP address, an address
range, an entire subnet or by using a host file. n-Command provides a visual up/down
status of each discovered device and enables a user to launch telnet, SSH, or browser
access with a few simple mouse clicks.
5-12
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Asset Management
n-Command Asset
Management
2009 ADTRAN
To aid in asset management, n-Command offers a flexible inventory report that displays
information like firmware type, device description, IP Address, serial number, and next
scheduled backup. For even greater flexibility, this information can be exported to
Microsoft Excel for easy data manipulation to create standardized reports, or charts. nCommand keeps a detailed log of all actions performed on every device managed by the
system. n-Command logs these actions together with important information about the
event such as job type, user, start time, and current state (Did the event succeed or fail?).
These logs include convenient links to provide more detail or quick access to
communication logs or the configuration backup files.
5-13
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Folder Management
n-Command Folder
Management
2009 ADTRAN
The Windows Explorer-like interface reduces the learning curve and eliminates training
time. This flexible design enables the network administrator to create a "folder-tree"
structure for conveniently organizing devices by type, location, or logical subnet to make
finding specific devices quick and easy. Devices can easily be moved between folders
and sub-folders as the network topology changes or grows in size.
5-14
Module 5: n-Command
Configuration Management
Configuration Management
2009 ADTRAN
Earlier in this course, we mentioned several of the configuration management options

available with n-Command. One of these features is being able to manage configuration
files directly. A configuration file viewer allows the user to load a configuration from an
actual live device. This may be a startup-configuration, running-configuration, etc. The
configuration viewer simplifies the configuration by using adjustable fields to expand or
collapse portions of the configuration that are of interest, and listing references to access
lists and policies in a separate window. Configurations may be edited, saved, and pushed
back to the unit.
5-15
Module 5: n-Command
n-Command Configuration Push
n-Command Configuration
Push
2009 ADTRAN
Another configuration management feature of n-Command is being able to push

configurations, or portions of a configuration to one or more devices at the same time.
The Config Push menu with syntax checker allows an Admin to type in configuration, or
load saved scripts to be pushed to the specified devices. The syntax checker may be used
prior to pushing the config to verify the correct syntax is used. If a problem is found, the
syntax checker will also give suggestions on how to correct the mistake.
5-16
Module 5: n-Command
Golden Backup Configurations
Golden Backup
Configurations
2009 ADTRAN
Once units are configured and working, you may wish to schedule automatic backups of
the current running and startup configurations. n-Command will poll the unit at specified
times to retrieve and store configurations of devices. This may also be done manually
whenever desired. Recurring backups may be scheduled and n-Command can be
configured to send e-mail notifications upon job completion. By storing a configuration
that you know works, you can maintain a "golden" backup configuration that may be
used to restore units, if necessary. If a unit loses its configuration, it may be restored
using any existing stored file. Devices may be restored using files that are hand chosen,
selected by date, or by an event.
5-17
Module 5: n-Command
Firmware Management
Firmware Management
2009 ADTRAN
Firmware may also be managed through the n-Command software. From the Firmware
Manager menu, firmware may be loaded to all devices of a certain type using a device
filter. This allows multiple units to be upgraded simultaneously. Additional options allow
you to schedule firmware updates for specific times, and send e-mail notification once the
task is complete.
5-18
Module 5: n-Command
ACL Manager
ACL Manager
2009 ADTRAN
Another feature of n-Command is the ACL manager used for Policy Pushing. The ACL
manager allows admins to quickly change access control list entries and push the new
policy to one or more devices. Configuration that would normally take a long time in the
CLI is easily done through the ACL manager. It allows admins to find and mark common
ACL statements in multiple existing ACLs, create, edit, delete, or insert lines into
templates, and check the syntax of the ACL statements. The ACL may be previewed
before pushing the new configuration to specified devices. A configuration backup may
be done on devices receiving the policy push both before and after the change, to allow
for a fail safe push of the new configuration.
5-19
Module 5: n-Command
Total Access Support
Total Access Support
2009 ADTRAN
When using an additional add-on module for n-Command, the Total Access 600 series
and Total Access 850 unit are supported. Firmware upgrade, backup configurations, and
restore configurations are supported on these products. Note that since these products are
not AOS based, their configuration files are saved in binary format and can not be viewed
using the configuration file browser.
5-20
Module 5: n-Command
Additional Features
Additional Features
2009 ADTRAN
Additional features available with version 4.1 of n-Command include a device file
explorer, a file compare feature, the ability to transfer files other than firmware to a
device, and a syslog viewer. For more information on these, or any of the features we
have discussed, visit ADTRAN's webpage at www.adtran.com/ncommand.

Module 5: n-Command
n-Command MSP
n-Command MSP
2009 ADTRAN
n-Command MSP is designed for Managed Service Providers, carriers, and enterprise
organiztions with a distributed network. Like the n-Command Enterprise Edition, users
can perform tasks such as firmware upgrades, configuration changes, configuration
backups, and asset management. With MSP, Voice Quality Monitoring (VQM) is also
available. n-Command MSP may be used with any product that uses the ADTRAN
Operating System (AOS). This includes the NetVanta products and Total Access 900
series devices.
5-22
Module 5: n-Command
NetVanta 450 Server
NetVanta 450 Server
2009 ADTRAN
n-Command MSP is hardware based and runs on the NetVanta Server 450. The webbased architecture is accessible via a web-browser from any PC. Supported browsers
currently include Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Google Chrome. Customizable user
access can be configured to allow certain users to perform certain tasks, such as adding
users, performing upgrades, configuration changes, etc. Auto Device discovery is
available using the AutoLink feature installed in the AOS products. NetVanta and TA
900 products using current versions of firmware (A2.01 and above for voice products,
AOS 17.04 for data products) will contact n-Command via an HTML link and send
required information. Tasks such as configuration management, firmware management,
backup and restoration of configurations, asset management, and VoIP quality
monitoring can be performed with n-Command MSP.
5-23
