Management
Integrated web server for the configuration of LANCOM devices via Internet browsers with HTTPS or HTTP. Similar to LANconfig with a system
overview, syslog and events display, symbols in the menu tree, quick access with side tabs. WEBconfig also features Wizards for basic configuration,
security, Internet access, LAN-LAN coupling. Online help for parameters in LCOS menu tree
WEBconfig
The LANCOM Layer 2 Management protocol (LL2M) enables an encrypted access to the command line interface of a LANCOM device directly via
a Layer 2 connection
LANCOM Layer 2 Management (emergency
management)
During rollout devices can be preset with project- or customer-specific settings. Up to two boot- and reset-persistent memory spaces can store
customized configurations for customer-specific standard settings (memory space '1') or as a rollout configuration (memory space '2'). A further
option is the storage of a persistent standard certificate for the authentication of connections during rollouts
Alternative boot configuration
Syslog buffer in the RAM (size depending on device memory) to store events for diagnosis. Default set of rules for the event protocol in Syslog. The
rules can be modified by the administrator. Display and saving of internal Syslog buffer (events) from LANCOM devices with LANmonitor, display
only with WEBconfig
Device Syslog
Individual access and function rights for up to 16 administrators. Alternative access control on a per parameter basis with
Access rights
RADIUS user administration for dial-in access (PPP/PPTP). Support for RADSEC (Secure RADIUS) providing secure communication with RADIUS
servers
User administration
Remote configuration with Telnet/SSL, SSH (with password or public key), browser (HTTP/HTTPS), TFTP or SNMP, firmware upload via HTTP/HTTPS
or TFTP
Remote maintenance
Support of protocol for authentication, authorization and accounting (AAA) with reliable connections and encrypted payload. Authentication
and authorization are separated completely. LANCOM access rights are converted to levels. With access can be granted per
parameter, path, command or functionality for LANconfig, WEBconfig or Telnet/SSH. Each access and all changes of configuration are logged.
Access verification and logging of SNMP Get and Set requests. WEBconfig supports the access rights of and choice of server
at login. LANconfig provides a device login with the request conveyed by the addressed device. Authorization to execute scripts and each
command within them by checking the server’s database. CRON, action-table and script processing can be diverted to avoid
to relieve servers. Redundancy by setting several alternative servers. Configurable option to fall back to local user accounts in
case of connection drops to the servers. Compatibility mode to support several free implementations
A remote configuration for devices behind der LANCOM can be accomplished (after authentication) via tunneling of arbitrary TCP-based protocols,
e.g. for HTTP(S) remote maintenance of VoIP phones or printers of the LAN. Additionally, SSH and Telnet client allow to access other devices from
a LANCOM device with an interface to the target subnet if the LANCOM device can be reached at its command line interface
Remote maintenance of 3rd party devices
For downloading firmware and configuration files from a TFTP, HTTP or HTTPS server with variable file names (wildcards for name, MAC/IP address,
serial number), e.g. for roll-out management. Commands for live Telnet session, scripts or CRON jobs. HTTPS Client authentication possible by
username and password or by certificate
TFTP & HTTP(S) client
SSH-client function compatible to Open SSH under Linux and Unix operating systems for accessing third-party components from a LANCOM router.
Also usable when working with SSH to login to the LANCOM device. Support for certificate- and password-based authentication. Generates its own
key with sshkeygen. SSH client functions are restricted to administrators with appropriate rights. Telnet client function to login/administer third
party devices or other LANCOM devices from command line interface
SSH & Telnet client
Option to choose if an uploaded certificate or the default certificate is used by the HTTPS server
HTTPS Server
The LANCOM Large Scale Monitor (LSM) is a professional tool for monitoring medium-sized to large-scale networks with 25 to 1,000 network
components. Designed especially for LANCOM components including WLAN access points, controllers, switches, and routers, this system based on
open-source components additionally allows for the monitoring of third-party products such as servers and printers. Problems in the network are
clearly displayed in tables or graphical floor plans, and they trigger alert messages via e-mail if certain threshold values are not maintained.
Large Scale Monitor (LSM)
Access rights (read/write) over WAN or (W)LAN can be set up separately (Telnet/SSL, SSH, SNMP, HTTPS/HTTP), access control list
Security
Scripting function for batch-programming of all command-line parameters and for transferring (partial) configurations, irrespective of software
versions and device types, incl. test mode for parameter changes. Utilization of timed control (CRON) or connection establishment and termination
to run scripts for automation. Scripts can send e-mails with various command line outputs as attachments
Scripting
LoadFirmware, LoadConfig and LoadScript can be executed conditionally in case certain requirements are met. For example, the command
LoadFirmware could be executed on a daily basis and check each time if the current firmware is up to date or if a new version is available. In
addition, LoadFile allows the upload of files including certificates and secured PKCS#12 containers
Load commands
SNMP management via SNMPv2, private MIB exportable by WEBconfig, MIB II
SNMP
Scheduled control of parameters and actions with CRON service
Timed control
Extensive LOG and TRACE options, PING and TRACEROUTE for checking connections, LANmonitor status display, internal logging buffer for SYSLOG
and firewall events, monitor mode for Ethernet ports
Diagnosis
Supported by all LANCOM WLAN Controller (separate optional hardware equipment for installation, optimization, operating and monitoring of
WLAN networks, except for P2P connections)
LANCOM WLAN Controller
Statistics
Extensive Ethernet, IP and DNS statistics; SYSLOG error counter
Statistics
Connection time, online time, transfer volumes per station. Snapshot function for regular read-out of values at the end of a billing period. Timed
(CRON) command to reset all counters at once
Accounting
LANCOM OAP-382
