InforMatIon for It Managers about VH2
VH2 is an embedded Linux-based device with dual 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports. The device contains an
optimized version of the
Linux kernel
(at this writing,
3.12
). The IP parameters are set using an internal web server
that hosts a configuration page on
TCP 80
.
Alternately, during the first five minutes of power up, the IP parameters may be set by a PC on the local LAN using a
proprietary broadcast UDP protocol. Comrex provides the
Device Manager
software to perform this function on the
local PC. After five minutes of operation, this function is disabled.
The device runs several services on different ports, outlined here:
IncoMIng serVIces
The device hosts a combined HTTP/XML service on
TCP 80
. If this service is needed outside the firewall,
the port will need to be routed to the VH2.
Firmware updates to the device are installed using the
Device Manager
. This update process is password protected
and done via XML over
TCP port 8080
. In addition to the password protection, the update data itself must have a
valid cryptographic signature from Comrex, or else it is rejected. In order for the unit to be remotely updated,
TCP
port 8080
must be forwarded to the device. Alternately, updates can be initiated from any local PC using the
Device
Manager
.
The device can support connection to a SIP trunking service, which would require incoming service on a single
UDP
SIP port
(usually
5060
) and two
UDP RTP ports
in the range of
16384-16432
.
The device can support connection to a registered SIP service. In this case, the
UDP
SIP connection will be outgoing
and the two
UDP RTP ports
will be incoming in the range of
16384-16482
.
Typically, SIP services rely on the presence of a SIP ALG within the firewall to open RTP ports.
If Comrex support is required, we may ask for access to the SSH host on the VH2 on
TCP 22
. SSH service is protected
by a private keypair which is not delivered to customers. SSH service can be disabled in the setup menu.
outgoIng serVIces
As described above, the VH2 will make outgoing connections to register with SIP providers
(usually to port
UDP 5060
) combined with incoming and outgoing RTP in the range of
UDP 16384-
16432
.
An NTP client is implemented by default to
UDP 123
.
