CS 1000 on Linux base

Network and firewall

All applications operate behind a network firewall. The firewall starts on
system boot, which invokes the Linux iptables facility to load the firewall
configuration.

Each Linux server supports at least two Ethernet ports; one for ELAN
subnet connectivity and another for TLAN subnet connectivity. By default,
the TLAN is open to the network, while the ELAN is reachable only within
the subnet. The Linux application selects the Ethernet port to use. The
firewall protects both ports. For a listing of Linux base open firewall ports
see

Table 1 "Linux base open firewall ports" (page 102)

. For a definition of

ELAN and TLAN see

“Network configuration” (page 143)

.

Use the CLI command

basefirewallconfig

to configure the network

firewall. For a list of Nortel Linux base CLI commands see

“ Nortel Linux

base CLI commands” (page 139)
