S&C Instruction Sheet 1074-530 5
Network Setup
Overview SpeedNet ME Radios serve as a communication end point for SCADA devices. They can
connect to a SpeedNet ME Radio mesh network. They can be installed in a variety of
network congurations. Plan your network in advance, and develop a logical IP addressing
scheme for your particular application. Depending on your network type, several factors
may inuence your design:
• Point-to-point vs. end-point within a mesh
• Stand-alone network connection
When network topology has been determined, the SpeedNet ME Radios can be
configured appropriately.
SpeedNet ME Radios route IP data between separate Ethernet subnets to their next hop
neighbor. Data are routed between the Ethernet subnets over a common IP-based wireless
network. Route information can be entered manually, or it can be handled automatically
by Ad hoc On demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol.
AODV is a routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks and other wireless ad hoc
networks. SpeedNet ME Radios use a proprietary AODV routing system that works
dynamically to maintain message routing. It generates fewer transmissions and conserves
network capacity. In the case of SpeedNet ME Radios, AODV is limited to discovering
and establishing the best possible point-to-point link. SpeedNet ME Radios will not act as
message relays for other nodes in the network.
Prior to implementing a SpeedNet ME Radio network, you should plan the IP
addressing scheme. The use of private IP addresses is recommended when designing a
SpeedNet network. The diagram shown in Figure 2 shows a sample IP address scheme
for a simple three-node network using private IP addresses.

Network Setup
The SpeedNet ME Radio network in this example contains three Ethernet segments.
The first segment uses the 192.168.1.0 Class C subnet, encompassing a range of addresses
from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254. The second segment uses the 192.168.2.0 Class C subnet,
encompassing a range of addresses from 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.2.254. The third segment
uses the 192.168.3.0 Class C subnet, encompassing a range of addresses from 192.168.3.1
to 192.168.3.254.
The wireless network in the example uses the 192.168.202.0 Class C subnet. This
subnet is different from the subnets used for the Ethernet segments. The wireless inter-
face of the SpeedNet ME Radio from the End Point Node 1 is assigned an address of
192.168.202.1. The wireless interface of the SpeedNet ME Radio from the Repeater Node
is assigned an address of 192.168.202.2. The wireless interface of the SpeedNet ME Radio
from End Point Node 2 is assigned an address of 192.168.202.3.
In this example, each SpeedNet ME Radio host ID is 1 (as in 192.168.3.1), while the
connected application device uses a host ID of 2 (as in 192.168.3.2). Following a
numbering scheme such as this will make it easier to keep track of which IP addresses
are assigned to each device.
NOTE: All SpeedNet ME Radios, regardless of their role within the network,
must use unique IP addresses for their Ethernet and wireless interfaces. All of the
SpeedNet ME Radios on the same mesh should have wireless IP addresses in the same
subnet. All the SpeedNet ME Radios on the same mesh should have different Ethernet
subnets.
Refer to S&C Instruction Sheet 1074-510 for additional information about network
planning.

S&C Instruction Sheet 1074-530 7
SpeedNet Security Administration
SpeedNet Security
Information
SpeedNet ME Radios use a comprehensive security suite to prevent unauthorized network
access and to protect sensitive data. The security features include user access controls,
network data encryption, node access revocation, and anti-spoofing measures. These
security features should be incorporated as part of a complete security policy, which
should include application-level user authentication and stringent password policies. For
example, a policy requiring user password changes at a defined interval.
KeyGen Utility Administrative control of SpeedNet ME Radio security configuration is provided by the
SpeedNet KeyGen Utility, an application that generates security keys, updates user access
and radio revocation lists, and saves updated security profiles within a Security Association
Database (SAD). The KeyGen Utility also allows generation of a common configuration
file to load into multiple radios, easing configuration overhead.
Creating a Security
Association Database
STEP 1. Launch the KeyGen application. The main window will open. See Figure 3.
Figure 3. KeyGen application launch window.
STEP 2. Click the Create button to create a Security Association Database (SAD). The SAD
dialog box will open. See Figure 4.
Figure 4. Security Association Database dialog box.
STEP 3. Enter a network name that is 4 to 64 characters in length. Use the Tab key on your
keyboard to proceed to the next eld.
STEP 4. Enter a pass phrase that is 8 to 64 characters in length. Use the Tab key on your
keyboard to proceed to the next eld.
STEP 5. Retype the pass phrase to conrm the previously entered pass phrase.

8 S&C Instruction Sheet 1074-530
SpeedNet Security Administration
STEP 6. Select a region from the drop down list. Then click the OK button.
STEP 7. Save the Security Association Database le as a .sad le. See Figure 5. The User
Management window will open. See Figure 6.
Figure 5. Security Association Database save dialog.
NOTICE
The Security Association Database, stored in a .sad file, is encrypted and protected by
the network name and pass phrase combination specified at the creation of the database.
Loss of the network name and pass phrase combination means the Security Association
Database becomes unusable. This may imply that a new database would need to be
created and all radios reset to factory settings and re-programmed with security files
derived from a new database. As such, it is vital to keep track of the network name and
pass phrase credentials associated with the database.
User Management
Window
Figure 6. KeyGen User Management window.
The User Management window allows the administrator to add up to six users to the
system. Any users with a checkmark entered in the Admin column will have full
security access. Users created without this checkmark entered have limited, read-oriented
privileges when accessing the radios. Admin-level access is required to congure the radios.

S&C Instruction Sheet 1074-530 9
SpeedNet Security Administration
Adding a User STEP 1. Click the Add button on the User Management window. The User File dialog
box will open. See Figure 7.
Figure 7. KeyGen User File dialog box.
STEP 2. Enter a username that is 8 to 16 characters in length. Valid case-sensitive
characters are a-z, A-Z, and 0-9. Use the Tab key on your keyboard to proceed to
the next eld.
STEP 3. Enter a password that is 8 to 16 characters in length. Valid case-sensitive
characters are a-z, A-Z, and 0-9. Use the Tab key on your keyboard to proceed to
the next eld.
STEP 4. Retype the password to conrm the previously entered password. Click to check
the Administrator checkbox if the user will be an administrator. Click the OK
button. See Figure 7. The newly added user will appear in the KeyGen User
Management window. See Figure 8.

Figure 13. User Management dialog box
Click the Yes button to delete all users from the User Management list. Further manage-
ment of the radios will require at least one admin account and a person possessing that
account’s login credentials (user name and password).
Adding a MAC
Address to the
Revocation List
The Mac Revocation Management window is used to update the revocation list for the
Media Access Control (MAC) address lter. See Figure 14. The MAC address is factory-
programmed into SpeedNet ME Radios. Thus, revoking a MAC address is a means to
exclude radios. For example, if a SpeedNet ME Radio were stolen, then it would be wise
to exclude that radio’s MAC address as one means to prevent the radio from joining a mesh
and breaching SpeedNet ME Radio network security.
Figure 14. Mac Revocation Management window.
To add a new MAC address to the revocation list, switch to the MAC Revocation
Management window. Enter the MAC address of the SpeedNet ME Radio to be excluded
from communicating with the radio being configured. The valid hexadecimal characters
are a-f and 0-9. Click the Add button.

SpeedNet Security Administration
The Mac Management dialog box will open. See Figure 18.
Figure 18. Clear all MAC entries dialog box.
Click the Yes button to clear the Mac Revocation List.
Key Generation The keyset is a common credential that all radios use when optionally encrypting
UDP/IP and TCP/IP data over a SpeedNet network. Keysets are thus used when
AES 128-bit encryption is enabled (SpeedNet Client tools’ Security > Encryption tab
using the Enable Encryption check box). Keysets must be installed on all participating
radios to be available for use; it is not sufcient to merely generate them in the KeyGen
tool. The KeyGen tool generates keysets randomly without user input; the user does not
provide seeds or other data. The Key Generation window is used to update keysets. For
a network or security conguration to be applied to the radio, the conguration le must
be encrypted and authenticated with a current keyset. Up to six keysets can be loaded
into a radio at a given time. At most one keyset is active at any given time. Radios can
“roll forward” to new keysets upon prompting by users or when data of a newer keyset is
received from another radio. Radios do not “roll backward” to previous keysets.
Adding a Keyset To add a new keyset, open the Key Generation tab and click the Add Keyset button.
See Figure 19.
Figure 19. Key Generation window.
Each time the Add Keyset button is clicked, the next consecutive keyset number will
be automatically added to the Install Keyset list as shown in Figure 20 on page 14.

SpeedNet Security Administration
Figure 20. New keyset number available on the Install Keyset list.
Deleting a Keyset To delete a keyset, open the Key Generation tab and highlight the keyset. Then, click
the Delete button. See Figure 21.
Figure 21. Key Generation window.
The conrmation dialog will open. See Figure 22. Click the Yes button to delete the
keyset.
Figure 22. Delete keyset(s) confirmation dialog box.

S&C Instruction Sheet 1074-530 15
SpeedNet Security Administration
NOTICE
The current keyset list will not be updated until a new security file is generated. Security
configuration files can still be encrypted to a recently deleted keyset because the old
keyset is still stored in the current keyset list. If, after deleting a keyset, you add a keyset
with the same tag as the deleted keyset, the keyset in the Install Keyset list will contain
a different key than the keyset with the same tag in the current keyset list. Care must
be taken to avoid this since all radios must have the same keyset installed in order to
communicate UDP/IP and TCP/IP data. ICMP data used for pings is not encrypted in the
SpeedNet Radio, so pings may work even in the case of mismatched keysets on radios
with encryption enabled. SpeedNet Client Tool logins use SNMPv3, which is transported
over UDP/IP, so logins will not work over wireless links in the case of mismatched keysets
on radios with encryption enabled.
Generating a
Security File
STEP 1. Select up to six keysets from the installed Keyset list.
STEP 2. Click the Generate Security File button on the Key Generation window. The
Security File window will open with all selections listed. See Figure 23.
Figure 23. Security File window.
STEP 3. Verify all the data to be included and select a current keyset to encrypt the le.
Then, click the Continue button. If a MAC specic key is used to encrypt the le
the following dialog box will be displayed. See Figure 24.
Figure 24. Enter Mac Specific Address dialog box.
STEP 4. Enter the MAC address of the radio for which this le is intended and then click
the OK button.
STEP 5. Enter a le name for the security le. See Figure 25 on page 16. Then, click the
Save button. It’s good practice to use the MAC address of the target radio as the
lename or part of the lename for the security le.
