The TANDBERG Gateway is built on a standard 19-inch rack mounted chassis of only 1U in  
height.  
2.1 Software  
In the standard version, the TANDBERG Gateway supports up to 2 Mbps bandwidth on ISDN.  
With the bandwidth option installed, it can handle up to 4 Mbps bandwidth on ISDN.  
3 Operation and User Interface  
The TANDBERG Gateway is normally controlled via the web interface. The TANDBERG  
Gateway can also be controlled via Telnet (or the RS232 port) by using a comprehensive set of  
API commands1. This enables the TANDBERG Gateway to be controlled by a different user  
interface, such as an AMX or Crestron system.  
For information on how to operate the system, please see the documents TANDBERG Gateway  
User Manual or TANDBERG Gateway API supplied with the system.

4.1.2 PRI E1/T1 ISDN  
4.1.2.1 ISDN number plan  
The TANDBERG Gateway’s PRI lines may use one or more numbers for dial in. If more than  
one number is used, the numbers must be consecutive.  
4.1.2.2 PRI Trunk Grouping  
When using more than one PRI line, the same properties for PRI 1 can be used for all PRI's by  
defining them all as a trunk group.  
4.1.2.3 PRI E1/T1 ISDN  
The PRI interface may require an external CSU depending on the network layout. ‘Cable  
Length’ in the PRI set-up menu specifies the distance from the TANDBERG Gateway to the  
CSU or last repeater.  
A CSU is not required if the system is within 200 m (655 ft) of the last repeater.  
The TANDBERG Gateway supports the PRI protocols AT&T Custom, National ISDN and  
ETSI (Euro ISDN). The AT&T and National protocols will give a total of (23*4) = 92 channels  
while the ETSI protocol will give a total of (30*4) = 120 channels.  
Within these protocols the following switches are supported:

4.1.3 Dial In Services  
4.1.3.1 Direct Inwards Dialing (DID)  
By enabling this feature, it is possible to make a direct mapping between ISDN numbers and  
H323 aliases. This requires that the PRI lines connected to the TANDBERG Gateway are  
configured with a range of numbers. This range of numbers should be large enough to associate  
one ISDN number to each H.323 device that is intended to make use of the DID feature.  
The H.323 aliases must be a portion of the ISDN number plus a prefix.  
Example:  
The TANDBERG Gateway is configured to use 4 digits of the ISDN Number, and 9 as the  
H.323 prefix:  
An endpoint dials the ISDN number 67117780  
The TANDBERG Gateway transfers the call to the H.323 Alias 97780  
4.1.3.2 Interactive Voice Response (IVR)  
This feature is used when one 'main' ISDN number is used for the TANDBERG Gateway. When  
dialing into the TANDBERG Gateway on this number, the user will be greeted with a welcome  
picture and sound. The user can then enter the H.323 Alias of the site they wish to call using  
DTMF tones.  
IVR should be used when one single ISDN number is to be used for the TANDBERG Gateway  
and when the endpoints using H.323 should be independent of the ISDN number used for the  
TANDBERG Gateway.  
4.1.3.3 TCS-4  
TCS-4 uses the same ISDN number as IVR. The user can add the H.323 alias to the ISDN  
number separated by a * . The TANDBERG Gateway will automatically transfer the call to the  
H.323 alias.  
Example:  
Endpoint dials 6711111*1234  
Gateway will transfer the call to the H.323 alias 1234  
D13192 Rev. 02

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
4.1.3.4 Hotline  
When calling the Hotline number specified in the TANDBERG Gateway, the call is  
automatically transferred to a predefined H.323 alias. This feature can be used when an operator  
or helpdesk is needed.  
All ISDN Dial In features (DID, IVR, TCS-4 and Hotline) can be used in any combination.  
4.1.4 IP Dial Out Services  
4.1.4.1 Service Prefixes  
A Service Prefix is used when dialing from a H.323 endpoint to a ISDN endpoint. By dialling  
the prefix, followed by the ISDN number, the call is transferred through the gateway, to the  
remote site on ISDN. The service defines the type of call (telephone/video) and bandwidth for  
the connection.  
It is possible to define up to 20 different services on the TANDBERG Gateway.  
The TANDBERG Gateway have two default services:  
Service  
Service  
Prefix ‘0’  
Prefix ‘1’  
Video call with maximum bandwidth 384kbps  
Telephone call  
4.1.5 Ethernet / LAN Interface (H.323)  
The TANDBERG Gateway has two RJ-45 jacks5 for the Ethernet interface (manual or automatic  
detection of 10/100Mb) and supports call rates up to 2 Mbps. The ITU-T standard H.323 v4  
protocol is implemented in the TANDBERG Gateway.  
The following features are specifically relevant for this network interface:  
4.1.5.1 Quality of Service features (QoS)  
4.1.5.1.1 IP precedence  
IP precedence is a classification of packets from 0 (low priority) to 7 (high priority). The  
values 6 and 7 are typically reserved for congestion control. IP precedence helps a router  
select what kind of traffic to prioritise. By means of queue mechanisms, it can select  
5
Ethernet port no.2 is not used in software version G2.  
D13192 Rev. 02  
10  
 
Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
which packets to send first and which to throw away. Some information/traffic is time  
critical while other is not, and classification is used to differentiate this traffic.  
One may set separate IP precedence for Signalling, Audio, Video and Data (values 1 – 7)  
as well as turn IP precedence off.  
The auto setting uses the following values for IP precedence:  
Signalling=6  
Audio/Video=4  
Data=3 (e.g. FECC commands)  
This means that in auto, IP precedence has the value 6 (i.e. signalling value) while both  
audio and video value is 4; data value is 3. Setting the IP precedence value in system’s  
menu is actually setting the signalling value. The audio/video and data values are  
changed accordingly in respect to the signalling value (i.e. audio/video value = - 2; data  
value = - 3).  
4.1.5.1.2 Diffserv  
Diffserv is an extension of IP precedence, where values from 0 to 63 (63=Highest  
priority) can be set.  
4.1.5.1.3 IP type of service (TOS)  
TOS helps a router select a routing path when multiple paths are available.  
Delay- tells router to minimize delay  
Throughput- tells router to maximize throughput  
Reliability- tells router to maximize reliability  
Cost- tells router to minimized cost  
Off- Turns TOS off  
4.1.5.1.4 Resource-Reservation Protocol (RSVP)  
RSVP is a protocol that allows the TANDBERG Gateway to request the network to  
reserve the bandwidth needed for the IP meeting.  
4.1.5.2 IP adaptive bandwidth management  
The TANDBERG Gateway never produces more traffic than needed for better  
utilization of network resources. Most of the data sent in a videoconference is video  
data. Thus, by incorporating smart video algorithms, the codec sends no more video  
data than necessary. Little movement in the picture gives low bit rate; while a lot of  
movement gives higher bit rate.  
The TANDBERG Gateway regulates outgoing and incoming media bit rates by  
means of flow control signalling.  
D13192 Rev. 02  
11  
 
Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
An example of this is automatic adjustment of total bandwidth used when DuoVideo is  
opened.  
4.1.5.3 Dynamic playout buffering  
Shapes the incoming data for better playout and re-sequencing of packet delivered out of  
order. This ensures better lip sync.  
4.1.5.4 Asymmetrical media capabilities  
Audio and video protocols can be fully asymmetrical.  
E.g., the TANDBERG Gateway can send H.263 and receive H.261 at the same time.  
4.1.5.5 Diagnostic tools for IP  
Q.931  
To show Q.931 trace during a conference you need to issue the command syslog  
on. One can get traces for RAS, Q.931 and H.245 with this command. It is a  
complex trace and requires an extensive knowledge in H.323 signalling to be  
understood.  
Ping  
Ping is used to see if the TANDBERG Gateway is able to reach a specific IP-  
address, using a mechanism in IP called ICMP. If the TANDBERG Gateway is  
unable to register to its gatekeeper, or if it is unable to dial a specific endpoint,  
one can use ping to see if there is at least an IP-route to the gatekeeper or to the  
endpoint.  
Traceroute  
Traceroute does exactly that; it traces the route an IP-packet takes to reach its  
destination and displays all router hops. Traceroute is very useful for seeing  
exactly where there is a routing-problem in the IP-network, and for checking  
where transport-delay is introduced.  
4.1.5.6 Latency & Jitter  
Latency is defined as the time between a node sending a message and receipt of the  
message by another node. The TANDBERG Gateway can handle any value of latency-  
however, the higher the latency, the longer the delay in video and audio. This may lead to  
conferences with undesirable delays causing participants to interrupt and speak over each  
other.  
Jitter is defined as the variation in latency for packets sent between two nodes in the  
network. Where constant latency simply produces delays in audio and video, jitter can  
have a more adverse effect. Jitter causes packets to arrive out of order or at the wrong  
times, which again leads to packet loss. The TANDBERG Gateway can manage packets  
with jitter up to 100ms. If excessive packet loss is detected, the TANDBERG Gateway  
will downspeed the connection until acceptable packet loss is achieved.

4.1.5.8 IP packet sizes  
Audio  
The TANDBERG Gateway can receive up to 60 ms of audio in each packet. The  
TANDBERG Gateway is sending 20 ms of audio in each packet, thus:  
G.711  
G.728  
G.722  
– 160 bytes per packet  
– 40 bytes per packet  
– 160 bytes per packet  
G.722.1 – 60 bytes per packet  
Video  
The TANDBERG Gateway is sending maximum 1450 bytes of video per packet.  
Note:  
In addition, the system needs to add the following header information for each of the audio  
and video packets above:  
20 bytes IP-header, 8 bytes UDP-header and 12 bytes RTP-header (i.e. 40 bytes in total).  
D13192 Rev. 02

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
4.1.5.9 Intelligent Packet Loss Recovery (IPLR)  
IPLR is an ITU standards based packet loss compensation for H.323 that improves received  
video into the TANDBERG Gateway. IPLR supports all video protocols and resolutions that  
TANDBERG Gateway already has implemented and is compatible with all terminals.  
IPLR is a special algorithm developed at TANDBERG that will make efforts to reconstruct  
the lost packets and reduce the visual effects caused by packet losses.  
If the TANDBERG Gateway experiences packet loss from an endpoint, it will ask the  
endpoint to handle packet loss. This requires Intelligent Packet Loss Recovery  
functionality on the endpoint.  
If an endpoint experiences packet loss from the TANDBERG Gateway, the  
TANDBERG Gateway encoder will not start IPLR since this would affect the received  
video quality for the other endpoint.

4.1.6 LEDs Description  
The TANDBERG Gateway has 24 LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) on the front panel. Each  
giving various information, as shown below.  
4.1.6.1 Description of PRI Alarms  
A PRI cable consists of four wires (2 pairs of wires): One pair for Transmit (TX) and one pair  
for Receive (RX) signals.  
Red Alarm  
Red alarm or Loss of signal (LOS) means that there is no signal and thus no framing info  
received. (This has same effect as pulling out the PRI cable).  
Yellow Alarm  
Yellow alarm or Remote Alarm Indicator (RAI) means that the TANDBERG Gateway is  
receiving framing info, but in this framing info the other side tells the TANDBERG Gateway  
that it is not reading the TANDBERG Gateway’s transmitted framing info. Typically, this may  
be a broken connector in the TX part of the TANDBERG Gateway PRI cable. This could also  
indicate weak or noisy signal in the TX part of the TANDBERG Gateway PRI cable.  
Blue Alarm  
Blue alarm means that network on the far side of the CSU is unavailable.  
D13192 Rev. 02  
15  
 
Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
Scenario: TANDBERG Gateway is connected via a CSU (i.e. a NT ‘Network Termination’) as  
follows:  
TANDBERG Gateway –cableA–CSU–cableB–Network  
If a CSU loses framing/sync from the network (example: a bad cable B), it shall no longer send  
valid framing out on cable A towards the TANDBERG Gateway. Instead it transmits "Blue  
Alarm". Seen from the TANDBERG Gateway receiving blue alarm, this means that the network  
on the far side of the CSU is unavailable.  
4.1.7 Intelligent Call Management (ICM)  
By using TANDBERG's inbuilt Intelligent Call Management (ICM), TANDBERG Gateway  
conferences can be made from data rates up to 2 Mbps via ISDN networks.  
ICM is a highly sophisticated feature provided by the TANDBERG Gateway that e.g. makes the  
connection between two sites more reliable and safe. If the ISDN network drops channels  
during a meeting, the conference will not shut down but adjust to the remaining number of  
available channels6. This ability is called ‘Downspeeding’ and is in accordance to the  
BONDING Mode 1 standard.  
By defining a maximum bandwidth for the different services (DID, IVR, TCS-4, Hotline, H.323  
services), all connections will be restricted to these bandwidths.  
If the requested bandwidth is not available in the TANDBERG Gateway or in the receiving  
endpoint, the TANDBERG Gateway will set up the connection using the available resources.  
6
If the connected site does not support downspeeding, the site will drop out of the call.

4.1.8 TANDBERG Gateway Capacity  
The total capacity of the TANDBERG Gateway is defined by the following rules.  
I. Maximum 8 video calls and 8 telephones calls.  
II. Total system bandwidth (IP + ISDN) of the TANDBERG Gateway is 7680 kbps. The  
maximum bandwidth used for ISDN calls is depending on the number and type of  
PRI's installed:  
a) The maximum bandwidth for each ISDN E1 is 1920 kbps (30x64kbps).  
b) The maximum bandwidth for ISDN T1 is 1472 kbps (23x64kbps).  
III. In addition, each call has a Call Weight depending on bandwidth and encryption as  
follows:  
Video calls:

The total sum of the Call Weights on the TANDBERG Gateway can not exceed 845.  
(Users will be prevented from setting up calls that exceeds this limit).  
Example of call weight calculation:  
If the TANDBERG Gateway has made 1 encrypted call at 768kbps and two unencrypted calls at  
384kbps the calculation will be:  
222 + 2(92) = 222 + 184 = 406  
Since 406 is less than 845, this will be OK.

(based on ITU standard H.235) and H.320 (based on ITU standard H.233 and H.234).  
The encryption algorithms used in the TANDBERG Gateway and all other TANDBERG  
systems are:  
- The Data Encryption Standard (DES) with a 56 bits session key  
- The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with a 128 bits session key  
Although there are small differences between H.323 and H.320, a typical set-up of a secure call  
can be defined as follow:  
1. Establishement of a common shared secret and selection of a encryption algorithm.  
2. Exchange of the keys according to the common shared secret and the selected encryption  
algorithm.  
3. Start the encryption.  
The establishment of the common shared secret is done through the computation of the Diffie-  
Hellman (DH) algorithm. The DH method uses primes numbers of 512 bits length for DES and  
1024 bits for AES. The shared secret is then used as a key for the selected encryption algorithm

which encrypts "the session keys". When the session are collected by the remote end, encryption  
of the audio, video and data channels can start.  
The encryption will be established automatically when both endpoints in the conference  
supports encryption with automatic key generation (and the conference is set up for encryption  
mode of operation).  
Encryption is supported for meetings up to 768 kbps and for the TANDBERG feature  
DuoVideo.  
Note: For an encrypted call, the endpoints must support encryption (AES or DES).  
If encryption is enabled, the TANDBERG Gateway accepts both AES and DES encryption.  
If one of the sites does not support encryption, encryption on both sides is disabled.  
4.1.10 H.243 Multipoint Transparency  
All MCU commands and information signalling are transparent through the  
TANDBERG Gateway. The most important commands and information signals are:  
- Request/Release floor  
- Site Naming  
- Cascading Signalling  
- OnAir Signalling  
- Microphone Off signalling(not supported by IP endpoint)

4.2.1 BONDING  
ISO 13871, BONDING Mode 1 for bit rates from 56 kbps up to 2 Mbps (1 to 30 channels).  
The maximum relative delay difference between B-channels is 0.5 second (i.e. to compensate  
for different routing of channels).  
The following are the standard bandwidths on H.320:  
30ch – 24 – 23 – 18 – 12 – 8 – 6 – 5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1  
4.2.1.1 ISDN channel set-up  
The following is a description of how the ISDN channels are set up.  
Incoming & Outgoing TANDBERG Gateway calls: Normally the TANDBERG Gateway will  
set up only 1 channel from PRI 1 and build up the channels starting from the 'bottom' of the last  
PRI in use.  
This will ensure that the TANDBERG Gateway always have available channels on the first PRI  
number (which normally should be the TANDBERG Gateway 's main number).  
4.2.2 H.221  
For bit rates from 56 kbps up to 128 kbps (1 or 2 channels).  
The maximum relative delay difference between the 2 B-channels is 0.6 second.  
4.2.3 H0  
H0 is an ITU defined 384 kbps service available for ISDN PRI. The TANDBERG Gateway  
supports H0 on incoming ISDN calls. H0 is defined as a group of 6 ISDN channels multiplexed  
to provide one 384 kbps channel. H0 may have a shorter connection time, since there is only  
one channel to set up.  
This service is sometimes called Switched 384 or ISDN H0.

4.4.4 Duo Video  
The TANDBERG Gateway is capable of receiving/transmitting two simultaneous video signals  
from/to the connected sites7 on all call rates from 128kbps and above. When one of the sites  
requests for Duo Video, the TANDBERG Gateway will open Duo Video towards the other  
video site if capable of receiving it. If the other site requests for Duo Video the TANDBERG  
Gateway will automatically transmit this site’s Duo Video to the first site.  
The TANDBERG Gateway uses High Speed Data rates (HSD) for Duo Video.  
The Video format of Duo Video is described in ch.4.4.2.  
Duo Video Interoperability with other vendors  
The TANDBERG Gateway is compatible with the Polycom feature ‘People + Content’.  
The TANDBERG Gateway can receive Duo Video (from a TANDBERG endpoint) and transmit  
it as People + Content to PolyCom iPower8 (on H.320).  
Note: This feature must be enabled in the TANDBERG Gateway configuration (Web page or  
via Telnet) to work with the iPower. There is also a setting for enabling People + Content on the  
iPower system.

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
4.6 System Management  
TANDBERG provides a comprehensive set of management tools, and is committed to the use of  
standards-based tools.  
The TANDBERG Gateway can be managed in many ways:  
The internal web server allows for remote control of the TANDBERG Gateway using a  
web interface from anywhere on the LAN/WAN/Internet (open browser  
http://TANDBERG Gateway-ipaddress)  
The Application Program Interface (API) allows for connecting a computer directly to  
the system via the RS232 port or from anywhere on the LAN/WAN/Internet via Telnet  
or FTP.  
The TANDBERG Management Suite (TMS) may also be used to manage the system and  
the TANDBERG Scheduler may be used to schedule conference meetings (Optional).  
4.6.1 Ethernet/LAN Interface  
There are two Ethernet/LAN interfaces on the TANDBERG Gateway, of which only one is  
currently in use. The LAN interface supported on the TANDBERG Gateway is 10base-T and  
100base-T compatible, and is used for H.323 conferences as well as management features of the  
TANDBERG Gateway, such as connecting to the internal web-server, Telnet and FTP-server.  
The system supports the following settings of this interface:  
Auto  
10/Half  
The TANDBERG Gateway will auto-detect the speed/duplex on the LAN  
The TANDBERG Gateway will connect to the LAN using 10Mbps  
speed/Half Duplex  
10/Full  
100/Half  
100/Full  
10 Mbps speed/Full Duplex  
100 Mbps speed/Half Duplex  
100 Mbps speed/Full Duplex  
‘DHCP’ (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) can be selected when a DHCP server is  
present. When using DHCP, IP-address and IP-subnet mask and IP gateway are not used since  
the DHCP server assigns these parameters.  
If ‘Static’ is selected, the system’s IP-address and IP-subnet mask must be specified in the IP  
configuration menu.  
4.6.2 Platform Requirements  
The management tools are based on standard protocols, obviating the need for special programs  
running on the management computer.  
The management computer may be any computer running a standard operating system (i.e. the  
management computer may be a Personal Computer running the Windows 95/98/2000/NT  
D13192 Rev. 02  
25  
 
Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
operating systems), which includes the necessary programs such as:  
An FTP client (please see ‘Upgrading software in TANDBERG Videoconferencing  
units’- document D10238 - for details)  
A web-browser (please see ‘TANDBERG Gateway User Manual’- document D13187  
- for details)  
A Telnet client (please see ‘TANDBERG Gateway API’- document D13202 - for  
details)  
A terminal emulator for the RS232 port (please see ‘TANDBERG Gateway API’ -  
document D13202 - for details)  
4.6.3 Protocols Supported  
TCP/UDP/IP -  
Transport Control Protocol/User Datagram Protocol/Internet  
Protocol, providing connectivity over LAN/WAN to any  
networked computer.  
HTTP -  
HyperText Transport Protocol, providing a Web-browser interface  
to the management computer. (‘Max. number of simultaneous  
connections’ = unlimited, although only one is processed at a time)  
Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer is a Web  
protocol that encrypts and decrypts user page requests as well as  
the pages that are returned by the Web server. It uses Secure  
Socket Layer (SSL) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP  
application layering. HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port  
80 in its interactions with the lower layer, TCP/IP. SSL uses a 40-  
bit key size for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is  
considered an adequate degree of encryption for commercial  
exchange.  
HTTPS -  
FTP -  
File Transfer Protocol, providing access to the ‘FTP file system’  
of the TANDBERG Gateway. (‘Max. number of simultaneous  
connections’ = 1)  
TELNET -  
Provide a standard command-line interface to management  
functions. (‘Max. number of simultaneous connections’ = 8)  
TELNET CHALLENGE - An option to the standard Telnet service. Telnet Challenge offers a  
telnet connection where the password is not sent over the network,  
hence impossible to sniff.  
SNMP9 -  
Simple Network Management Protocol, standard for network  
management and surveillance. (RFC1157 SNMPv1, RFC 1213  
MIB-II).  
DHCP -  
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, enabling the system to  
automatically be given IP address and Subnet Mask when  
connected to a network with a DHCP server.  
In addition to the above, TCP/IP based protocols allowing management to be performed

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
remotely. Local management, control and software upgrade facilities are also available through  
a standard RS232 interface.  
4.6.4 System Management Functionality  
4.6.4.1 Remote software upgrades using FTP:  
This service is provided by the standard TCP/IP based FTP protocol. Any networked PC may  
perform software upgrades either locally or over the Internet depending on the LAN connectivity  
on the customer premises (firewalls etc.). By using any FTP-client software (such as the FTP-  
client bundled with the Windows operating system), it is possible to upload the new software  
release to the TANDBERG Gateway. The software file is in binary format in order to decrease  
upload time. All settings of the TANDBERG Gateway will be restored after a software upgrade.  
4.6.4.2 Management using a standard Web-browser:  
The web-browser is the most common way to manage the TANDBERG Gateway giving access  
to all managing features of the TANDBERG Gateway. Using a standard Web-browser  
(Netscape, MS Internet Explorer 3.0 or later), the user may perform all forms of meeting set-up  
and control, but also diagnostics, troubleshooting and software upgrade.  
4.6.4.3 Management using a standard Telnet-client:  
(i.e. a Telnet program bundled with the Windows operating system)  
This gives the user the same functionality as from the web interface and the RS232 port. It  
provides advanced debug capabilities such as ISDN layer 3 (D-channel) traces on the Primary  
Rate interfaces, low-level H.320 protocol diagnostics (e.g. H.221 traces), etc. This interface is a  
command-line type interface, not a graphical interface like the Web-browser interface. The  
system supports multiple simultaneous Telnet sessions. See chapter 4.3 and the document  
‘TANDBERG Gateway API’ (D13202) for details of API commands available via  
RS232/Telnet.  
4.6.4.4 Management using a terminal connected to the RS232 port:  
(i.e. using the HyperTerminal program bundled with the Windows operating system).  
Provides the same services and features as the Telnet-interface does, but locally. See chapter 4.3  
and the document ‘TANDBERG Gateway API’ (D13202) for details of API commands  
available via RS232/Telnet.  
4.6.5 Security  
4.6.5.1 HTTPS, TLS/SSL  
The TANDBERG Gateway supports HTTPS in order to ensure secure transmission of the  
information displayed on the administrator’s PC (i.e. a secure connection between any Web  
browser and the TANDBERG Gateway (the TANDBERG Gateway web server) will be  
established if the HTTPS service on the TANDBERG Gateway is enabled). HTTPS allows for  
password exchange which is especially important.  
D13192 Rev. 02  
27  
 
Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
SSL  
Secure Sockets Layer, protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private  
documents via the Internet. SSL works by using a private key to encrypt data that is  
transferred over the SSL connection.  
HTTPS - Web pages that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http:.  
TLS - Transport Layer Security  
SOAP - Simple Object Access Protocol is a lightweight protocol for exchange of  
information in a decentralized, distributed environment  
XML - Extensible Markup Language is a flexible way to create common information  
formats and share both the format and the data on the World Wide Web, intranets, and  
elsewhere.  
To enable HTTPS, use the API command services https on. The HTTPS server will then be  
activated at next restart.  
If the TANDBERG Gateway’s HTTP service also is activated, the user will automatically be  
redirected to HTTPS. If HTTP is de-activated, you will have to specify HTTPS. (In the latter  
case https://10.0.5.203 will work, but not http://10.0.5.203).  
4.6.5.2 Telnet Challenge Service  
When password protection is enabled for a system, a user will be requested for a password when  
connecting using normal telnet. The password provided is sent unencrypted, making it possible  
to sniff the password on the network.  
In order to avoid making it possible to obtain the password by sniffing, the telnet challenge  
service is available. This service can be activated either on a separate IP port 57, or on IP port  
23. When activated on IP port 23, the challenge service will override the normal telnet service.  
The intention of the telnet challenge service is that the client will use the password with a server  
provided string to generate a response that does not contain the password. Thus, the response  
can not be used to deduct the password, but the server can use it to know whether the client  
knows the correct password or not. This increases the security by not sending the password over  
the network.  
Notice that if password protection is disabled, there will be no challenge request when  
connecting, and the service is equal to the normal telnet service.  
D13192 Rev. 02  
28  
 
Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2  
It is also important to understand that only the password is protected with this service. The  
actual connection is not encrypted, and can be sniffed as for a normal telnet connection.  
4.6.5.3 Disable Services  
There is no router inside the system that can route between the ISDN side and the IP side of the  
TANDBERG Gateway. This means it is not possible to get access to the Ethernet port via an  
ISDN conference. However, if wanted the following services may be disabled/enabled (with  
API commands):  
Telnet Service  
Telnet Challenge Service  
HTTP Service  
HTTPS Service  
FTP Service  
SNMP Service (may also be set to read only or Traps Only)  
4.6.5.4 Security Alert  
The system will notify any management application when someone tries remote access over IP  
with illegal password (via SNMP traps). Information about the intruder’s IP-address and the  
service used (Web, Telnet and FTP) will be given.  
When the (optional) TANDBERG Management Suite (TMS) is used, an email notification may  
also be sent e.g. to the administrator of the network.

6 Environmental Issues  
6.1 TANDBERG’s Environmental Policy  
TANDBERG’s Research and Development is continuously improving TANDBERG’s  
products towards less use of environmentally hazardous components and substances as  
well as to make the products easier to recycle.  
TANDBERG's products are Video Conferencing Solutions. The idea of Video  
Conferencing is to reduce the need for expensive, time demanding and polluting  
transport of people. Through people’s use of TANDBERG’s products, the environment  
will benefit from less use of polluting transport.  
TANDBERG’s wide use of the concepts of outsourcing makes the company itself a  
company with a low rate of emissions and effects on the environment.  
TANDBERG’s policy is to make sure our partners produce our products with minimal  
influence on the environment and to demand and audit their compatibility according to  
applicable agreements and laws (national and international).  
6.2 Environmental Considerations  
Like other electronic equipment, the TANDBERG Gateway contains components that may have  
a detrimental effect on the environment.  
Printed-wiring boards made of plastic, with flame-retardants like Chloride or Bromide.  
Component soldering that contains lead.  
Smaller components containing substances with possible environmental effect.  
After the product’s end of life cycle, it should be returned to authorized waste handling and  
should be treated according to National and International Regulations for waste of electronic  
equipment.
