Bandwidth Management
With the Bandwidth Management feature, you can allocate the outgoing
capacity of an interface to specific types of traffic. You can also ensure
that the Contivity 221 forwards certain types of traffic (especially real-time
applications) with minimum delay. This feature allows you to manage
bandwidth for the Contivity 221 by configuring classes and filters for LANs
and WANs.
Certificate Management
The Contivity 221 uses certificates (also called digital IDs) to authenticate
users. Certificates are based on public-private key pairs. Certificates
provide a way to exchange public keys for use in authentication.
Contivity Client Global Setting for VPN
The Contivity Client Global Setting features provides configuration support
for client global settings for VPNs. You can use this feature to configure
exclusive use mode for client tunnels.
IPSec Tunnel Nail Up
This feature ensures that the Contivity 221 automatically renegotiates an
IPSec tunnel when the IPSec Security Association (SA) lifetime expires.
When the Contivity 251 restarts, it automatically renegotiates any nailed-up
tunnels. In effect, the IPSec tunnel becomes an always on connection after
the tunnel is initiated.
Multi-user Configuration
With this Contivity 221 feature, you can manage multiple users through the
import and export of user information.
SSH/HTTPS for Remote Management
Secure Shell (SSH) is a secure communication protocol that combines
authentication and data encryption to provide secure encrypted
communication between two hosts over an unsecured network. Hypertext
Transfer Protocol over SSL (HTTPS) is a web protocol that encrypts and
decrypts web pages. The Contivity 221 device supports these protocols
for remote management purposes.
Contivity 221 configuration tasks
The CCM client must be connected to the CCM server to perform the
configuration tasks described in this guide. To perform configuration
operations on the Contivity devices in the network, the CCM server requires
IP connectivity to the Contivity management IP addresses.
