SECTION 1: MANAGEMENT ACCESS
SECTION 1.1 UNDERSTANDING YOUR DOCUMENTATION
Item 1 Obtaining the most recent documentation from your VisionNet Sales Engineer
Only pre-approved ILEC/CLEC representatives may receive documentation . If you are not recognized on that list,
please ask the authorized company representative to add you to our list.
Item 2 You will receive the following files:
Configuration File This is the generic xml file, used at the time of customization,
sans device unique parameters
Customer Configuration Form
This is the explanatory form that summarizes the contents of the
configuration, and includes passwords in plain-text.
This form should only be distributed to authorized employees
Optional: Logo The VisionNet Logo may be replaced by a custom .png or gif file
Optional: DNS Redirect Branding
The custom DNS Redirect, used for DSL Sync and
Troubleshooting, may be over-written with a custom html file
including contact information and instructions.
Item 3 Types of configurations kept for records:
Shipping Configurations
These configurations are approved for shipping, and may be
referenced by Os, for use. Shipping configuration changes
must be requested by authorized technical representatives
lternate Configurations
These configurations are not used for shipping, but are
recognized as approved for deployment. These may be provided
to technicians upon request.
Testing Configurations
These configurations are not used for shipping, or recognized for
deployment. They are for testing, development, or are being
considered for final approval.

SECTION 1.2 MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTS
Item 1 Management ccounts
It has been common practice, in the past, for in-field technicians, and lower level remote support, to receive full
admin access.
As of “Solution Suite 3” , 5 accounts are utilized for department appropriate access to VisionNet modems.
Item 2 Security dvisory
Strict adherence to the following account access restrictions is advised:
High Level ccess Limited to Engineering and NOC departments
Medium Level ccess Limited to in-field technicians and IS employed customer
support
Low Level ccess ONLY THIS LEVEL ACCESS SHOULD BE ROVIDED TO END
USERS

VisionNet M504 / M505N R3 Page 7 of 62 User Manual Rev 0.1c

SECTION 1.3 SERVICE SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
Item 1 Default use of Non-Standard Ports
Use of Non-Standard ports help ensure consistency in an environment where U n , and customer port forwarding,
may re-map standard ports for personal use.
The following ports are used as VisionNet defaults:
Service L N Port / Status W N Port - Status
HTT 80 - Enabled 6080 - Enabled
TELNET 23 - Enabled 6023 - Disabled
SSH 22 - Enabled 6022 - Enabled
FT 21 - Disabled 21 - Disabled
TFT 69 - Enabled 69 - Disabled
ICM N/A - Enabled N/A - Enabled
SNM 161 - Disabled 161 - Disabled
SAMBA 445 - Enabled N/A
Item 2 W N Interface Restrictions
Dedicated PVC / VL Ns are an effective method of isolating management services to privately managed
networks; thus removing potential security threats.
IP based CLs are suggested for public facing W N services.
VisionNet M504 / M505N R3 Page of 62 User Manual Rev 0.1c

SECTION 1.4 GUI ACCESS
STEP 1 Verify IP Information
1.A Determine the I and ort of the service
interface.
If you are accessing the unit remotely:
Determine the WAN I and Service ort.
Verify that your local I will not be blocked by any
gateway, or network, ACLs.
If you are accessing the unit locally:
Determine the LAN I of the gateway.
In a NAT, or Routed configuration, this will be your
Gateway I , assigned by DHC .
In a Bridged configuration, you will need to statically
assign an I , to your device, within the same subnet
as the gateway’s unadvertised LAN I .
Step 2 Connect via Web Browser
2.A In your browser’s address bar, enter the I
Address and, if remote, port number used for
access.
Example of W N ccess:
http://172.20.100.18:6080
Example of L N ccess:
http://192.168.6.1
2.B When Challenged, enter the username and
password associated with your account.
VisionNet M504 / M505N R3 Page 9 of 62 User Manual Rev 0.1c

SECTION 1.5 CLI ACCESS
STEP 1 Verify IP Information
1.A Determine the I and ort of the service
interface.
If you are accessing the unit remotely:
Determine the WAN I and Service ort.
Verify that your local I will not be blocked by any
gateway, or network, ACLs.
If you are accessing the unit locally:
Determine the LAN I of the gateway.
In a NAT, or Routed configuration, this will be your
Gateway I , assigned by DHC .
In a Bridged configuration, you will need to statically
assign an I , to your device, within the same subnet
as the gateway’s unadvertised LAN I .
Step 2 Connect via Client
2.A Via your OS Terminal, or Console rogram,
you may enter the I and ort information
Example of W N ccess:
172.20.100.18 port 6022
Example of L N ccess:
192.168.6.1 port 22
2.B When Challenged, enter the username and
password associated with your account.

ATM
TM
ETH (Omni- ort)
2: dd and Define Service to Interface
ATM
TM
ETH (Omni- ort)
3: Prioritize for Default Service Group
Gateway
DNS
4: dd Service Group
If Applicable
2.B Tearing Down W N Services
WAN Services Must be removed as follows:
1: Remove W N Service
This must be removed first
2: Remove Interface
This may not be removed unless all
associated WAN Services are removed
3: Remove Service Group
Remaining Group Interfaces will not be
ungrouped by default
VisionNet M504 / M505N R3 Page 12 of 62 User Manual Rev 0.1c

Item 3 Physical Port Prioritization
3.1 There are three Physical W N Options
xDSL Operation
This operation only allows the xDSL port
to be used for WAN operation.
This will not convert the “Omni- ort” to
LAN mode if an “ETH” Interface is enabled
Omni-Port W N Operation
This operation only allows WAN Service
through the Omni- ort.
This will not remove created xDSL
Services
W N Time-out Operation
If xDSL signal is not detected, within a
specified amount of time (default 120
seconds), the created Omni- ort WAN
Interface will be activated.
