The BGAN services supported by

SAILOR FleetBroadband
Introduction
Supported services
The services currently supported by the SAILOR FleetBroadband comprise:
• A Packet-Switched (PS) connection to the Internet
• A Circuit-Switched (CS) dialed connection for voice, fax or data
• Short Messaging Service (SMS)
• Multi-voice
• Voice Distress
Packet data service

The BGAN network supports different classes of data connection to the
Internet.
• Using a Standard IP connection several users can share the data
connection simultaneously. This type of connection is ideal for e-mail,
file transfer, and Internet and intranet access. The user pays for the
amount of data sent and received.
• Using a Streaming IP connection you get an exclusive high-priority
connection ensuring seamless transfer of data. This type of connection
is ideal for time critical applications like live video over IP. The 8 and
16 kbps connections are well suited for Voice over IP. The user pays for
the duration of the connection (per minute charge).
Note The BGAN system supports maximum 11 concurrent Packet
Switched connections at a time per SAILOR FleetBroadband
system.

Circuit-Switched (dialed) service

The following types of circuit-switched connection are available:
• Standard Voice. A low-tariff connection for voice only. The voice
signal is compressed to 4.0 kbps, which reduces the bandwidth use and
consequently the tariff.
• 3.1 kHz Audio. A high quality connection which can be used for
Premium Voice or G3 fax. The signal is uncompressed 3.1 kHz audio,
which allows for optimum voice quality. Note that the 3.1 kHz Audio
service may have a much higher tariff than Standard Voice.
• ISDN. A high quality connection which can be used for voice (3.1 kHz
Audio), G4 fax or 64 kbps UDI/RDI data.
SMS service
The BGAN system provides a Short Messaging Service (SMS) for sending
and receiving SMS messages to and from the terminal.
Multi-voice service (optional)

Normally, the BGAN system only supports one call at a time per
SAILOR FleetBroadband System. When you subscribe to the optional Multi-
voice service and enable it in your system, you can have up to 9 concurrent
calls.
To use the Multi-voice service you must enable Multi-voice in the web
interface of the SAILOR FleetBroadband terminal. For information on how
to set up Multi-voice, see Multi-voice on page 190.
Voice Distress service (optional)

The Voice Distress service uses FleetBroadband to provide priority call
access as soon as the red distress button on the alarm panel is pressed. The
caller will then be connected to an operator at one of three Maritime
Rescue Coordination Centres (MRCCs) strategically located around the
globe.
To use the Voice Distress service you must first have it included in your
airtime subscription, acquire a SAILOR 3771 Alarm Panel and use the web

1111
interface of the SAILOR FleetBroadband terminal to enable Voice Distress

and assign a Thrane IP Handset.
Introduction

Using the ignition system

Normally the ignition function is not used in maritime installations. Instead
you may want to use the remote on/off function described in the next
section.
If you have connected the ignition system of your vessel to the I/O
connector, you may leave the power switch in the “on” position and the
terminal will switch on/off when you start/stop the engine of your vessel.
Note If you have the 19” Rack terminal, you must leave both power
switches in the “on” position to make use of the ignition function.
When the engine is stopped the terminal is in standby mode. The standby
current is max. 15 mA when the ignition is off. For information on how to
connect to the Ignition pins in the I/O connector, refer to the installation
manual for the SAILOR FleetBroadband System.
You must set up the ignition function in the web interface. For further
information, see Configuring the I/O interface on page 137.
Note In some cases, the system may reboot after power-on because of
the high start-up current.
Using a remote on/off switch
Note In the 19” Rack version of the terminal the remote on/off function
is normally not available, because it is used for the front switch.
If an external switch is connected to the remote on/off pins in the DC
connector, you may leave the power switch in the connector panel in the
“on” position and use the remote switch to turn the terminal on and off.
When the remote switch is off, the terminal is off. However, if you leave the
power switch on the terminal in the “on” position, you can always switch
the terminal back on with the remote switch. The standby current when the
remote switch is off is max. 2 mA. For further information on the remote
on/off function, refer to the installation manual for the
SAILOR FleetBroadband Systems.

44 Using a phone or fax machine

3333
Selecting the call type
Definition
The phone connection can use one of the following call types:
• Standard Voice, which is a low-tariff voice connection compressed to
4.0 kbps
• 3.1 kHz Audio, which is a high quality connection used for Premium
Voice or G.3 fax
• UDI or RDI (only on ISDN interface), which is used for G4 fax or data

In the web interface you can set up which type of connection to use by
default when you make or receive a call from the Phone/Fax or ISDN
interface or from an IP handset connected to the LAN interface. Standard
Voice is selected by default.
When connecting a fax to the Phone/Fax interface you must use 3.1 kHz
Audio.
Example: If you always have a fax connected to the same Phone/Fax
interface you can set this interface to 3.1 kHz Audio only. This
will mean that if an incoming Standard Voice call is received, this
Phone/Fax interface will not ring.
When connecting a G4 fax or a modem to the ISDN interface in the
SAILOR 500 FleetBroadband system you must use UDI.
Note UDI and RDI are not available with the

SAILOR 250 FleetBroadband system, so you cannot connect a G4
fax machine nor a modem to the ISDN interface on the
SAILOR 250 FleetBroadband system.

Information of outgoing calls, received calls and missed calls is stored in the
call log of the terminal. You can view the call log in the web interface under
CALLS. For further information, see Viewing the lists of calls and data
sessions on page 97.

Making a call to the terminal
Note By default all phones connected to the terminal will ring on

incoming calls. However, this depends on the configuration of the
interfaces in the terminal. See
• Selecting the call type on page 45.
• Using the local exchange on page 51.
• If you are using Multi-voice, see Handset contexts with
additional numbers on page 61.
To make a call to a phone connected to the terminal, dial
+ <Mobile number>
• Mobile number. The first part of the mobile number is always 870,
which is the “country code” for the BGAN system. If the mobile numbers
are listed in the web interface, you can look them up as follows:
Connect a computer, access the web interface and select PHONE
BOOK > Mobile numbers. For further information, see Viewing and
editing the mobile numbers on page 93.
If the mobile numbers are not available in the web interface, refer to the
documents included with your airtime subscription.

Using the local exchange
Before you can use the local exchange, you must enable it in the web
interface of the terminal. For information on how to set up the local
exchange function, see Setting up the local exchange function on
page 126.
Note The Local exchange function is not available if you have enabled
Multi-voice.
With local exchange enabled, do as follows to call a specific handset:

1. Call the mobile number of the terminal.
For details, see the previous section.
2. Listen to the recorded message.
You now have three options:
• If you know the local number of the phone, dial the number
followed by #. Example: To call phone number 0301, dial 0301 #.
Your call is then transferred to phone number 0301.
• If you don’t know the number of the phone, you can call the default
phone by dialing *.
• If you dial nothing, you are transferred to the default phone after a
time-out period.
Receiving a voice mail message

If a call to the SAILOR FleetBroadband system is not answered the caller
can leave a voice mail message with Inmarsat’s voice mail service. Then an
SMS is sent to the SAILOR FleetBroadband messaging system to alert you
that there is a voice message. The SMS has the contents:
• Number called from
• Date and time the voice mail message has been received
• Number to call to listen to the voice mail message
To see that a new SMS has arrived you open the web interface. For further
details see Receiving a message on page 101.

Making local phone calls

You can make local calls between various phones connected to the
terminal.
Local phone numbers always start with 0.
Note Remember the “0” at the start when you dial a local phone
number. If you accidently dial a 3-digit number, you may get one
of Inmarsat’s short dial numbers instead of a local number.
For an overview of the numbers assigned to each type of interface, see
Local numbers and special-purpose numbers in the next section.
To make a local call, dial <local number> followed by # or off-hook key.
Note If you are using local numbers for ISDN devices, the numbers
must be programmed in the devices. For further information refer
to the documentation for your ISDN device.
Local numbers for IP handsets must also be programmed in the IP
handsets. However, by default, the IP handsets are automatically
assigned the first available local number in the terminal.

Dialling prefixes
Apart from the numbers above, the terminal uses the following dialling
prefixes:
• 1* before the phone number will force the connection to use Standard
Voice.
• 2* before the phone number will force the connection to use 3.1 kHz
Audio.
• #31# before the phone number will hide the caller’s phone number to
the recipient.
• *31# before the phone number will show the caller’s phone number to
the recipient where it would otherwise be hidden, e.g. because the
number is an ex-directory number.
• For analogue 2-wire telephones, use the R key during a call to get access
to a supplementary services function. The supplementary services
functions supported by the terminal are described in the following
sections.

3333

The router contains NAT (Network Address Translation) which allows
sharing of a public IP address between a number of local network users.
For further information on network management, see Managing LAN
network users on page 142.
Standard IP or Streaming IP on LAN

The BGAN network supports different classes of data connection to the
Internet. The main classes are Standard IP and Streaming IP.
• Using a Standard IP connection, several users can share the data
connection simultaneously. This type of connection is ideal for TCP/IP
66 Using a computer
3333
traffic such as e-mail, file transfer, and Internet and intranet access.
The user pays for the amount of data sent and received.
• Using a Streaming IP connection, you get an exclusive, high-priority
connection, ensuring seamless transfer of data. This type of connection
is ideal for time critical applications like live video over IP.The 8 and
16 kbps connections are well suited for Voice over IP.
The user pays for the duration of the connection (per minute charge).
Note For optimum performance it is important that you select the right
traffic class when defining profiles for your connection.

You can set up various types of connection using the profiles and traffic
flow filters. For further information, see Using profiles on page 170 and
Using traffic flow filters on page 175.
Working with network user groups

The LAN users of the SAILOR FleetBroadband system can be organized in
network user groups with different setup and different access rights.
The network user group you belong to is determined by one or more of the
following:
• the LAN port you connect to
• the IP address of the device you are using
• the MAC address of the device you are using
Non-administrator users can only see and start/stop profiles configured for
their own network user group.

Using PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)
Overview
You can establish a PPPoE connection to the BGAN network using the
SAILOR FleetBroadband system. Use PPPoE if you want to control your
connection independently of the web interface and the Thrane IP Handset.
Possible applications are:
• Connecting a router
• Connecting broadcast equipment, optionally through a PC
• Establishing a Picocell for the use of cell phones
The following drawing shows connections managed through PPPoE and
web interface respectively.

Configuring the connected equipment for PPPoE
To use PPPoE with your SAILOR FleetBroadband system, first enable PPPoE
in your terminal. Refer to Enabling PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over
Ethernet) on page 110.
After enabling PPPoE in the terminal, you must configure your equipment.
How to do this depends on the type of equipment. Refer to the user
documentation of the equipment. As a minimum, you need to configure
the following parameters in your equipment in order to make PPPoE work
with the terminal:

• User name and password.
The user name and password can be left blank (or insert user name:
void and password: void). Then the registration on the Access Point is
most commonly done in such a way that the data connection is
established with a dynamic IP address from the airtime provider.
To request a static IP (if subscribed to) from the Access Point you must
type in the user name and password from your airtime subscription.
Note for MAC OS: User name and password are required. Use user name
void and password void. This works for some ISPs. Contact your
airtime provider for further information.
• For setups that have a check box for “Enable LCP extensions”, deselect
this.
No further configuration is needed to make a Standard IP data connection
to the Internet.
See the next page for information on how to configure specific services for
your PPPoE connection.
Using a computer 75
If you need a certain service, for example a Streaming class, you must type
in a specified text string when asked for a service name. The following table
shows the service names supported by the terminal.

Tracking the terminal
The SAILOR FleetBroadband system can be used for tracking purposes. You
can set up the terminal to report its position to a server at certain time
intervals or after moving a specified distance.
To use the tracking feature you must either set up a tracking server or get a
tracking solution from your service provider. The SAILOR FleetBroadband
system must be set up to match this server. For information how to set up
the SAILOR FleetBroadband system, see Setting up Tracking on page 138.
Once set up on both sides, the SAILOR FleetBroadband system will send

position reports to the server as specified.

address of the terminal.
If you do not know the IP address, you can look it up in the DASHBOARD
of the web interface under ONGOING DATA SESSIONS.

Enabling PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)
What is PPPoE
By using PPPoE, users can virtually “dial” from one machine to another over
an Ethernet network, establish a point to point connection between them
and then securely transport data packets over the connection.
On the equipment connected to the SAILOR FleetBroadband Terminal you
must enter a few settings for your PPPoE connection. For example you
need to set up which service to use and possibly a user name and password.
For details, refer to Using PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)
on page 74 and to the documentation for your connected equipment.
On the SAILOR FleetBroadband Terminal you must enable PPPoE before
you can establish a PPPoE connection. Refer to the next section.

Configuring the Phone/Fax interface
To configure the Phone/Fax interface do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > Phone/Fax from the left navigation pane.

2. If you have additional numbers from your airtime provider and you
want to assign them to the Phone/Fax ports, use the Assigned
number drop down list to select the number you want to use for each
port.
When this number is called, only the handset connected to that port will
ring.
Note To be able to use the additional numbers, you must first select
Use additional numbers in the Multi-voice page and enter
the additional numbers under PHONE BOOK > Mobile
numbers. See Multi-voice on page 190.
3. For each Phone/Fax port, set the call type for incoming and outgoing
calls.

Note Port 1 is the connector closest to the antenna connector, and

Port 2 is the connector closest to the ISDN connector.
The call types are described in more detail in Selecting the call type on
page 45.
• For Incoming calls, you can select Standard or 3.1 kHz Audio or
both.
If you select both, any device connected to the Phone/Fax interface
will react (ring) on incoming calls.
If you select e.g. Standard, the Phone/Fax interface will only react on
calls made to the Standard phone number.
• For Outgoing calls, you can select either Standard or 3.1 kHz
Audio. The selected type will be used by default, if possible, for any
outgoing call. Note, however, that fax machines must use 3.1 kHz
Audio.
Note You can override the default setting for outgoing calls by
dialling 1* (force the call to Standard) or 2* (force the call to
3.1 kHz Audio) before the number. For further information,
see Overriding the default outgoing call type on page 46.
4. For each port you can see whether or not Restricted dialling is enabled.
For further information, see Restricted dialling on page 188.
5. Click Apply.

4444
Configuring the ISDN interface
Note For information on how to set up call services (supplementary

services), see Setting up call services on page 120. These settings
apply to both the Phone/Fax interface, the ISDN interface and
the LAN w. PoE interface.
To configure the ISDN interface, do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > ISDN.

want to assign them to the ISDN ports, use the Assigned number
drop down list to select the number you want to use for each port.
When this number is called, only handsets connected to that port will
ring.
If you have assigned a number, skip the next two steps and go to step 5.

3. Set the call type(s) for incoming calls.

You can select Standard, 3.1 kHz Audio, UDI and/or RDI. Note that
SAILOR 250 FleetBroadband only supports Standard or 3.1 kHz Audio.
Note Connected devices will only receive incoming calls with the
call types that are selected here.
For example, if only Standard is selected, and a G4 fax call
(using call type UDI) arrives, a fax connected to the ISDN port
will not receive the incoming call.
4. Set the MSN (Multiple Subscriber Number) numbers that are to be
assigned to each call type.
Note that this setting only applies to the call type selected above the
MSN number, and only if the connected device supports the call type
used.
If you have assigned a number to the ISDN port, the MSN setting is not
available.
Important If you set an MSN number to anything other than
<None>, connected devices must be programmed with
these MSN numbers.
You have the following options with the MSN numbers:
• <None>. No MSN numbers are used. An incoming call is accepted in
all devices connected to this port.
• 1*, 2*, 3* or 4*: If, for example, you select 1* at Standard call type,
an incoming Standard call is accepted by all devices that are
programmed with the number 1* and connected to the ISDN
interface.
• 0401, 0402: These are local numbers for separate devices
connected to the ISDN interface.
An incoming call is accepted by devices that are programmed with
the selected number and connected to the ISDN interface.
You can combine the MSN settings.
Example: You have two devices connected to the ISDN interface. One
is programmed with the numbers 1* and 0401, the other is
programmed with 1* and 0402.
In the web interface, you select the MSN number 1* under

4444
Standard.
If an incoming Standard call arrives, both devices will accept
the call.
If you make a local call to one of the local numbers 0401 or
0402, only the called device will accept the call.
5. Set the call type for outgoing calls.
• If you select Automatic, the call type will be determined by the
calling device.
• If you select Standard, all outgoing calls, except UDI/RDI, will use
the call type Standard. If you make a 3.1 kHz Audio call it will be
converted to a Standard call.
Outgoing UDI or RDI sessions will be not be influenced by this
setting.
• If you select 3.1 kHz Audio, all outgoing calls, except UDI/RDI, will

use the call type 3.1 kHz Audio. If you make a Standard call it will be
converted to a 3.1 kHz Audio call. Outgoing UDI or RDI sessions will
be not be influenced by this setting.
Note You can override the call type setting for outgoing calls by
dialling one of the following prefixes before the number:
• 1* (force the call to Standard)
• 2* (force the call to 3.1 kHz Audio)
Refer to Overriding the default outgoing call type on
page 46.
6. If you hear an echo in your ISDN handset and the handset does not
have its own echo canceller, enable the Audio echo canceller.
Note If you are using the ISDN port for ISDN data, make sure the
Audio echo canceller is disabled to avoid loss of data.
7. At the bottom you can see whether or not Restricted dialling is enabled.
For further information, see Restricted dialling on page 188.
8. Click Apply.

Setting the common interface settings
Overview
The settings under COMMON are common for all interfaces.
Note In order to use the common Access Point Name for an interface,
you must select Common for the APN setting when setting up
the network user group.
Definition of Access Point Name (APN)

The APN is used by the network user to establish a connection to the
required external network. This means that the terminal must know the APN
in order to be able to connect to the external network.
APNs are provided from the Airtime Provider. They may also be defined on
the SIM card.
How to use the common APN

When you configure the APN for your individual network user group, select
Common to use the setting from this page.
If you are using the same APN for many network user groups, it is easier to
define it once under Common, and then simply select Common for the
relevant network user groups. Also, if you change the common APN at a
later stage, it is automatically updated for all network user groups where the
Common setting is selected.

4444
To set up the common interface settings
To set up the common interface settings, do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > Common.

2. Select the APN. You have the following options:
Provider.
3. At Buffering on Streaming profiles, select Enabled or Disabled.
• If you select Enabled, your Streaming connection will be buffered.
This means that the transmission is slightly delayed in order to
ensure a precise and continuous data stream.
• If you select Disabled, your Streaming connection will not be
buffered. This means the data is delivered immediately, but may
vary slightly in transmission speed.
4. Click Apply.

Setting up call services
Overview
The setup of call services is also common for all interfaces.

during call set up. Note that if you selected Subscribed above, this
setting will not be used.
6. Click Apply.
Setting up the local exchange function

If the local exchange is not used, the default behaviour is such that
incoming calls will cause all connected phones to ring. If you want to be
able to call a specific phone connected to the terminal and you are not
using additional numbers in your subscription, you must use the local
exchange function. With this function enabled, when you dial the mobile
number of the terminal, a recorded message guides you to dial the number
for the local phone you want to call. Your call is then transferred to the
requested phone.
Note If Multi-voice is enabled, the local exchange function is not

available.

4444
To set up the local exchange, do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > Common > Local exchange from the left
navigation pane.

For example, if you use 3.1 kHz Audio for a fax machine only, you do
not want to use the local exchange for 3.1 kHz Audio.
If no call type is selected, the local exchange function is disabled.
4. Click Apply.

Managing IP handsets
Overview
The terminal has 4 LAN (PoE) connectors for connection of IP handsets or
other IP equipment. You may connect your IP handsets directly to the LAN
interfaces or use a PoE switch to connect more handsets. The
SAILOR FleetBroadband terminal supports connection of up to 16
handsets.
Each handset must have a local number in the range 0501 to 0516 as well
as a unique password. By default, handset numbers are automatically
assigned when Thrane IP Handsets are connected. However, you may want
to change the password for the handset. For further information, see the
next section Connecting and configuring IP handsets.
Note The handset with the local number 0501 is the master handset.
This means you can start/stop data sessions from the terminal
with a SAILOR FleetBroadband IP Handset with local number
0501, if the function is allowed in the User permissions page. See
Setting up user permissions on page 181.
Note that if you do not want your Thrane IP Handsets to
automatically be assigned a local number and password, you can clear
the setting Settings > Start up options > Auto BGAN SIP in the
Thrane IP Handset menu. This is recommended if you are going to use
Voice Distress or Multi-voice with assigned numbers. See Voice Distress on
page 192 and Additional numbers for Multi-voice on page 64.

4444
Connecting and configuring IP handsets
Note A Thrane IP Handset that is connected to the LAN interface on the

terminal is by default automatically registered in the terminal and
assigned the first available local number and a password which is
the same number.
If you want to view or change the settings for the new IP handset, do as
follows:
1. Connect the IP handset to one of the LAN ports of the terminal.

If it is a Thrane IP Handset, the handset starts up and is automatically

Configuring the discrete I/O interface
I/O pins and their functions

The I/O interface on the terminal has 5 configurable I/O pins. You can set
up the function of each pin in the web interface. The default functions of
the I/O pins are as follows:
Pin 1: Ringer output.
Pin 1 acts as a built-in switch in the terminal. You can configure Pin 1 to be
Normally closed or Normally open.
Note Do not use the Ringer output if you have enabled Local exchange.
For information on Local exchange, refer to Setting up the local
exchange function on page 126.
• Normally closed (default):
The internal switch at pin 1 is normally closed (pin 1 is connected to
ground). When the terminal is notified of an incoming call from the
satellite interface, the switch opens (no connection to ground). When
the call is answered, or the caller gives up and releases the call, the
switch is closed again.
• Normally Open:
The internal switch at pin 1 is normally open (no connection to ground).
When the terminal is notified of an incoming call from the satellite
interface, the switch is closed (pin 1 is connected to ground). When the
call is answered, or the caller gives up and releases the call, the switch is
opened again.
Pin 2: Warning/Error output.
Pin 2 acts as a built-in switch in the terminal. Pin 2 can be used to provide
an external signal that indicates active warning/error condition(s). You can
configure pin 2 to be Normally closed or Normally open.
• Normally Closed (default):
ground). When an alarm occurs, the switch opens (no connection to
ground). The switch is closed again when all warnings/errors are cleared.
• Normally Open:

4444
When an alarm occurs, the switch is closed (connected to ground). The
switch is opened again when all warnings/errors are cleared.
Pin 3: Mute output.
Pin 3 acts as a built-in switch in the terminal. Pin 3 can be used to provide
an external signal that is active during a phone call. The signal can be used
to mute external equipment. You can configure pin 3 to Normally closed or
Normally open.
• Normally Closed (default):
ground). During phone calls, the switch opens (no connection to
ground). When the call is ended, the switch is closed again (connected
to ground).
• Normally Open:

The switch is closed (connected to ground) during phone calls. When
the call is ended, the switch opens again (no connection to ground).
Pin 4: Radio silence input.
Activation of this pin causes the system to assume radio silence, i.e. to stop
all transmission from the system. The terminal gracefully closes all open
connections, and deregisters from the BGAN network. No transmission is
allowed until the pin is deactivated. You can configure pin 4 to Active low or
Active high.
• Active low (default): Connect pin 4 to ground (< 1.2 V DC) when it
should be activated.
• Active high: Connect pin 4 to ground (< 1.2 V DC). When it should be
activated, disconnect it from ground.
Pin 5/8: Ignition input.
The ignition function can be used to turn on/off the terminal by means of
an external signal. The external signal that triggers the ignition function can
be either positive DC voltage or ground. The ignition function uses pin 5
together with pin 8 (DC in). Connect the appropriate pin to the ignition
switch as follows:
• Active high (default): Connect pin 5 permanently to Ground. Connect
pin 8 to positive DC voltage (10.5-32 V DC) when the ignition is on. To
switch off, disconnect pin 8 from the positive DC voltage.

• Active low: Connect pin 8 permanently to positive DC voltage (10.5-

32 V DC). Connect pin 5 to Ground (< 1.2 V DC) when the ignition is on.
To switch off, disconnect pin 5 from ground.
Note The Ignition function is normally not used in maritime
installations. You may use the Remote on/off function in the
power connector instead.
Pin 6: Ground.
(Non-configurable) Pin 6 can be used as an external connection to ground.
Pin 6 is connected to Ground inside the terminal.
Pin 7: DC output.
(Non-configurable) Pin 7 can be used as a DC output. The voltage on pin 7
is 9-15 V and the output can supply up to 50 mA. Pin 7 can be used as
power supply to a relay, ringer or similar.

Managing LAN network users
Introduction
The network management system

With the built-in router functionality the system offers a flexible use of the
data channel of the BGAN service. You can configure the use of the data
channel by defining network user groups and profiles. The following picture
gives an overview of the parameters involved.
Primary
MAC address Network profile
IP address user Desired IP
group Secondary connection
LAN port
profile
Traffic flow
filters
The network user group you belong to is determined by one or more of the
following:
• the IP address of the device you are using
• the MAC address of the device you are using
• the LAN port you connect to
A connected IP device will automatically be assigned to the default network
user group, if it is not specified otherwise.
For specific purposes like video streaming, a server on the network, a fixed
IP address on the connected device or changing the startup mode of a
connection, you must set up network groups with specific primary and/or
secondary profiles. How to do this is described in the following sections.
Network user groups

The network management system divides the users of the terminal into
network user groups. Each network user group has a profile which
determines how the users connect to the Inmarsat BGAN network. The
network user groups can allow or restrict certain services for different users.
142 Managing LAN network users

4444
For example, you may want to define:
• one network user group allowing both Standard and Streaming
connections,
• one network user group for Internet, e-mail and VPN, allowing Standard
connections,
• one network user group for Remote management of systems. This
would be a direct Standard connection (Bridge mode).
You can have up to 11 network user groups and global IP addresses.
Necessary steps when managing network users

The steps necessary for managing network users include:
1. Defining a network user group. See Setting up the network user

groups on page 144.
The network user groups determine settings such as:
• QoS (Standard/Streaming),
• IP addressing (Static/Dynamic)
• Internet access mode (Router Mode/Bridge Mode/No Internet
Access)
2. Identifying a network device. See Managing network devices on
page 150.
The network devices are identified by their IP address, MAC address and
(optionally) device name.
3. Associating the network user group and the network device.
See Using the network classification table on page 152.
The network classification table determines which devices should
belong to which network user group. When a network device is
connected, the terminal runs through the network classification table to
check if the new connection matches any of the entries in the table.
When a match is found, the terminal establishes a packet data
connection (PDP context) with the settings defined in the belonging
network user group, and the device is ready for use with the terminal.
Managing LAN network users 143

Access to the network management settings

Access to the network management settings requires an administrator
password. The default user name is admin and the default password is
1234.
The administrator can create and manage network user groups and set up a
network classification table defining priorities for devices, network user
groups and LAN ports.
Caution! All user connections to the LAN interface may be

affected when you change the settings below,
including your own current connection.
Setting up the network user groups
Overview
A network user group, in this context, is a group of network users sharing
the same Quality of Service profile and network parameters.
There are 11 configurable network user groups. For the Default network
user group certain settings are locked to make sure there is always one
functional network user group available. For example, the Default network
user group cannot be disabled and does not allow you to select a Bridge
mode connection.
Note The network user groups cannot be deleted. If you do not want to
use them, click Edit and select Disabled at Status in the
NETWORK USER GROUP field.

4444
Editing a network user group
For further explanation of the terms used below, see Definitions for
network terms on page 155.
Note For further explanation of the terms used below, see Definitions
for network terms on page 155.
To edit a network user group, do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > LAN > Network user groups.

When you are prompted, enter the administrator user name and
1234.

2. Click Edit next to the network user group you want to set up.

3. Type in a name for the group.

4444
4. Select Enabled or Disabled.
5. Select the type of Internet connection.
• Router mode means the connection will be shared with other
users, and the NAT module of the terminal will make the necessary
address translations. Use this mode if one or more computers are
connected using the LAN interface, and the terminal should act as a
router.
• Bridge mode is an exclusive connection, with NAT disabled. Use
this mode together with a network classification entry that selects a
single computer (see Using the network classification table on
page 152). This mode is not available in the Default network user
group.
• No Internet access means no connection to the Internet is
allowed. Use this setting e.g. for IP handsets, where an Internet

connection is not required. The external voice connection is still
available; this setting only affects communication over the Internet.
6. Select Dynamic IP address.
This is the IP address used externally on the satellite network. Refer to
next step for Static IP.

on page 155.
9. Select the source of the APN (Access Point Name).
There are four options for setting the APN. Unless you have special
requirements, it is recommended to use the SIM default, or to set the
common APN to SIM default, and then select Common here. You have
the following options:
• Common. The APN is taken from the Common APN defined under
SETTINGS > Common. Refer to Setting the common interface
settings on page 118.
• SIM default. The APN is taken from the SIM card. If you want to
use a static IP address on the external network, select this option
either here or in the Common setting.
Provider.
10. If your APN uses a password, type in the user name and password
provided from the Airtime Provider.
Note If you are going to use the static IP address from your SIM
card, the user name and password are mandatory! See step 6
above.
11. At Automatic activation select whether the profile selected in the
next step should be activated automatically or manually.
Note If the selected primary profile is a Streaming profile, this
setting has no effect. Streaming profiles must always be
activated manually from the Dashboard.
• Disabled means you can activate/deactivate the profile from the
Dashboard.
• Enabled means the profile is activated automatically as soon as the
system is ready.
12. Select the Primary profile.
Select a profile from the Primary scroll list. This profile is used by this
network user group as a first choice, when possible.

4444
Important If you have selected and started a Streaming connection
as your primary profile, the LAN interface will be running
a Streaming connection until you stop it or disconnect
the interface. However, if you select one or more
secondary profiles, you can set up your traffic flow filter
so that it will only use the Streaming profile for certain
types of traffic.
There are several predefined profiles: Standard, Streaming 8 kbps,
Streaming 16 kbps, Streaming 32 kbps, Streaming 64 kbps, Streaming
128 kbps and Streaming 256 kbps (only SAILOR 500 FleetBroadband).
Additionally, you can define your own custom profiles.

Managing network devices
Overview
A network device, in this context, is an Ethernet hardware device, identified
by its unique MAC address.
When a network device with dynamic IP address is connected to the
terminal, it is automatically listed in the Network devices list.
Viewing the list of network devices

To view the list of network devices, select SETTINGS > LAN > Network
devices.
If you are prompted, enter the administrator user name and password. The
default user name is admin and the default password is 1234.

4444
All network devices that have been connected to the terminal are listed
here.

Locking an IP address to a MAC address
When the device is locked to an IP address, the terminal will always assign
this IP address to the MAC address of this device (if DHCP is enabled and
the Internet connection is not a Bridge mode connection).
To lock a device to its current IP address, click the link next to the
device.
The device is then locked to the current IP address and added to the list of
locked IP addresses at the top of the page.
To unlock a device from the IP address, click Delete next to the
device in the LOCKED IP ADDRESSES list.

Using the network classification table
Overview
The network classification table is used to define which network devices, IP
addresses and/or LAN ports are associated with which network user groups.
Each entry in the table shows MAC address, IP address, LAN port and
network user group.
When a network device is connected, the terminal runs through the
network classification table to check if the new connection matches MAC
address, IP address and LAN port in any of the entries in the table. When a
match is found, the terminal establishes a PDP context with the settings of
the network user group assigned in the matching entry. The device is now
ready for use with the terminal.
Adding or editing an entry in the network classification table

To add a new entry to the table or to edit an existing entry, do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > LAN > Network classification table.

If you are prompted, enter the administrator user name and password.
The default user name is admin and the default password is 1234.
The network classification table shows which devices are associated

with which LAN ports and network user groups. An Asterisk (*) is a “wild
card”, meaning that any value is accepted.

4444
2. Click Edit next to the entry you want to edit, or click Add at the bottom
of the list.

3. Click Add next to a network device you want to use, or type in the MAC
address manually at the top of the page.
Note If you leave a field empty, it is the same as a “wild card” and it
will be shown as an Asterisk in the Network classification table.
Unless you are using a Static IP address, the IP address field
should always be left empty.
4. Select the LAN port and Network user group you want to associate
with the device.
Network user groups are created and defined in the Network user group
page. See Setting up the network user groups on page 144.
5. Click Apply.

Removing an entry in the network classification table

In the network classification table, click Delete next to the entry you
want to delete.
Changing the priority in the network classification table

To change the priority of an entry, click the up or down arrow next to the
entry.
Connections are evaluated in the order they are listed. The first entry (and
only the first entry) that matches the properties of the connected device is
applied, meaning that the connection will be using the settings of the
network user group assigned to that entry.
The Default network user group is always last, so it is only used if none of
the other entries match the properties of the connected device, or if the
other network user groups are disabled.

4444
Definitions for network terms
APN (Access Point Name)

APNs are provided from the Airtime Provider. They may also be defined on
the SIM card
The APN is used by the network user to establish a connection to the
required external network. This means that the terminal must know the APN
in order to be able to connect to the external network.
Header compression
The Header of a data packet contains control information belonging to that
packet. The information in the Header can take up a considerable amount
of bandwidth. In order to save bandwidth, you can use Header
Compression, meaning you compress the header information, leaving some

of the information out.
You can select whether or not to use Header Compression for your data
transmission.
• Header Compression enabled: Recommended for low-noise
applications.
If you select Header Compression enabled, you will be using less
bandwidth on header information, leaving more bandwidth for the
actual payload.
• Header Compression disabled: Recommended in noisy
environments.
If Header Compression is disabled, the system will be less sensitive to
noise.

Profiles
A profile is a collection of Quality of Service (QoS) settings and other
settings defining the mode in which data is transmitted on an interface. For
example, a profile is used to define whether a connection should be a
Standard or Streaming connection.
You can select between a number of predefined profiles or define your own
profiles for your data transmission.
Note If you have selected more than one profile (one primary and one
or more secondary profiles) for an interface, you must define a
traffic flow filter before you can establish a valid connection.
You need an administrator password to define profiles and traffic flow
filters.
NAT (Network Address Translation)

NAT enables a local-area network to use one set of private IP addresses for
internal traffic and an assigned or static IP address for external traffic. The
built-in NAT module in the terminal makes all necessary address
translations between the local-area traffic and the external traffic.
If more than one user is connected, you must select a network user group
with Router mode to use the NAT of the terminal.

4444
Starting/stopping data sessions
The administrator can start and stop data sessions for all network user
groups connected to the terminal.
To start or stop a data session, do as follows:
1. Select CONNECT.
When you are prompted, enter the administrator user name and
1234.

2. Click on the session you want to start or stop.
Under ONGOING DATA SESSIONS at the top you can see which
data sessions are currently active.

Using profiles
What is a profile?
A profile is a collection of Quality of Service (QoS) settings and other
settings defining the mode in which data is transmitted. For example, a
profile is used to define whether the connection is a Streaming connection
or a Standard connection.
You can select between a number of predefined profiles or define your own
profiles for your data transmission.
If no traffic flow filters are defined, the Primary profile for a network user
group is used for all traffic from that network user group. See What are
traffic flow filters? in the next section.
For further information on profiles, refer to the 3GPP standard TS 23.107
“Quality of Service (QoS) concept and architecture”.
The profiles are used in the network user groups.
Selecting the profiles for a network user group

When you set up a network user group, you select the profiles to use for
that network user group. You select a Primary profile and optionally one or

172 Administration
4444
Important For best performance, choose the right traffic class for
your application. In general, Standard IP (Background) is
best suited for TCP/IP applications, and Streaming IP is
best suited for UDP traffic, e.g. live video or audio.
You may select subscribed or one of the following:
• Conversational is real-time two-way conversation. It is primarily
used for voice over IP and video conferencing.
• Streaming is real-time one-way communication. It is primarily used
for video and audio.
• Interactive is two-way communication (not real-time). It is used
for communication that is not very delay-sensitive, such as web
browsing, database retrieval and server access. Examples of
machines interaction with remote equipment are: polling for
measurement records and automatic database enquiries (tele-

machines).
• Background is used for data which is not delay-sensitive, such as E-
mail, SMS, download of databases and reception of measurement
records.
5. Type in the bit rates in kbps in the following fields:
Note For SAILOR 250 FleetBroadband the maximum allowed bit
rate is 128 kbps.
• Maximum bit rate ul (kbps) is the maximum upload bit rate
allowed for this profile.
• Maximum bit rate dl (kbps) is the maximum download bit rate
allowed for this profile.
• Guaranteed bit rate ul (kbps) is the guaranteed upload bit rate
needed for this profile.
• Guaranteed bit rate dl (kbps) is the guaranteed download bit
rate needed for this profile.

packet allowed to be lost or erroneous. Only used if you select Yes in
step 10.
9. Select from the Residual bit error ratio drop-down list the
undetected bit error ratio of a packet. If no error detection is requested,
Residual bit error ratio indicates the bit error ratio in delivered packets.
10. In the Delivery of erroneous SDUs row, select one of the following
from the list:
• Yes means packets are allowed to contain errors. This setting is
suitable for delay-sensitive transmission, because the need for
retransmission is limited. The SDU Error settings in step 8 and step 9
will apply.
• No means packets are not allowed to contain errors, and the SDU
Error setting in step 8 will not be applied. This setting is suitable
where error-free transmission is important and delays are accepted.
• No detect means that errors will not be detected, and the SDU
Error setting in step 8 will not be applied.
11. In the Transfer delay (ms) field, type in the delay in ms. This is the
delay from the time data is received in the terminal until it arrives at the
receiving end.
• If the Transfer delay is 500 ms, error correction is disabled.

4444
Using traffic flow filters
Purpose of the traffic flow filters

The purpose of the traffic flow filters is to assign different priorities to
different types of traffic in order to optimize performance.
Example: When you are browsing the Internet a Standard IP connection is
normally sufficient. However, to have a video conference you
may need a Streaming IP connection in order to obtain a direct
connection without interruptions. Your traffic flow filters can
define these priorities, so that your connection is automatically
set to Streaming e.g. when you have a video conference.
What are traffic flow filters?

When more than one type of traffic is needed, you must use both a primary

and one or more secondary profiles. For the BGAN core network and the
terminal to classify packets received from the external network into the
proper profile, you need a traffic flow filter.
A list of traffic flow filters consists of one to eight packet filters. Each packet
filter has an evaluation precedence index that is unique within all traffic
flow filters associated with the profiles that share the same PDP (Packet
Data Protocol) address. The evaluation precedence index determines the
order in which the filters are applied; 0 is applied first, then 1 and so forth.
Information of source, destination, type of service etc. is combined in each
packet filter in the list.
Administration 175
Defining traffic flow filters

To define the traffic flow filters, do as follows:
1. From the left navigation pane, select

ADMINISTRATION > Traffic flow filters.
2. Click the link New entry.
3. Select a number in the Eval.Prec. Index drop-down list.

The evaluation precedence index defines the order in which the traffic
flow filters are applied to packets. 0 is first, then 1, 2 etc.
Note This field is mandatory. Each filter must have a different
Evaluation Precedence Index.
4. Select the Profile from the drop-down list.
The available profiles are the profiles listed under ADMINISTRATION >
Profiles.
176 Administration
4444
5. Fill in one or more of the following fields to define the filter.
The allowed ranges appear in hover text when you pass the mouse over
the fields.
• Source address + Subnet mask.
This is an IPv4 IP address and subnet mask.
• Protocol number.
This number is uniquely assigned for the protocol being used. TCP
is set to 6, and UDP is set to 17. The protocol number determines
which protocol is used by the traffic flow filter.
• Destination port range (From and To).
• Source port range (From and To). Note that you must fill in both
From and To, even if there is only one port.
• Type of Service + Type of Service mask.
Set this value to a number between 0 and 255.

Type of Service (TOS) is an 8-bit field in a packet header, with
associated mask, that is used to define Quality of Service.
For further information on the principles and parameters of the traffic
flow filters, refer to the 3GPP standards TS27.007 V4.2.0 and TS 23.060
V4.7.0.
6. Click Apply at the bottom of the page.
Administration 177
Example of a list of traffic flow filters

Below is an example of a list of traffic flow filters.
In this example, data packets are filtered in the following order:
1. The filter with evaluation precedence index 0 checks for UDP packets
(protocol number 17), in the port range 2455-5000. When these
packets are identified, they are assigned a 64 kbps Streaming channel
(the Streaming 64 profile).
2. The filter with evaluation precedence index 1 checks remaining packets
for TCP packets (protocol number 6), on port 524. These packets are
routed to the standard IP connection (the Standard profile).
3. Remaining traffic is routed to the standard IP connection.

Remote activation
If you want to remotely control the terminal, it must have activated a
connection. You can do this by sending an SMS to the terminal. The
terminal must be powered up and logged on to the satellite services to
receive the SMS and then start the connection. The SMS activation is
always protected by a password. You can set up the terminal to send an
SMS confirmation on the status of the connection, whether it is activated
successfully or the activation failed.
Note The terminal must be logged on to the satellite services to
receive and accept an activation SMS. If the SMS is
considered too old or sent before the terminal has been
switched on and has logged on, the SMS will be ignored.
Important This service is available if the service provider has an

interoperability agreement with Inmarsat and allows for
roaming. If in doubt, contact your mobile provider.
To set up the terminal for remote activation with SMS, do as follows:
1. From the left navigation pane, select ADMINISTRATION > Remote

activation.
2. Select whether remote activation should be Enabled or Disabled.
Administration 185
3. Select whether confirmation by SMS should be Enabled or Disabled.

4. Enter the password. It can be up to 32 characters long. The characters
0-9, a-z and A-Z are allowed. The password is mandatory and must
match the password in the activation SMS.
5. Enter at least one trusted mobile number from which the terminal
accepts an activation SMS. If no numbers are entered the feature is
disabled automatically. Use the wild card * to accept a range of trusted
numbers.

Link monitoring
You can monitor the external IP connection of the SAILOR FleetBroadband
system using the link monitoring feature. With this feature activated, the
terminal will send out ping commands (ICMP Echo Requests) to a server of
your choice.
Note Link monitoring is only performed on data connections with the

Default network user group (see Setting up the network user
groups on page 144). This data connection must be activated
before link monitoring can start.
To set up link monitoring, do as follows:
1. From the left navigation pane, select ADMINISTRATION > Link

monitoring.

2. Select Enabled if you want to enable Link monitoring.
3. Select the Interval between each ping.
4. Select the number of Retries before the terminal reboots.
5. Type in the Primary and optionally the Secondary IP address.
This is the IP address of the server(s) to which the terminal will send
ping commands.
Note Use a server that is reliable and that supports and responds to
ICMP Echo Requests.
Administration 187
6. Click Apply.
When a data session is started with the Default network user group, the
terminal will start sending ping commands to the Primary IP address the
number of times specified at Retries. If no response is received, it will send
the same number of ping commands to the Secondary IP address, if
available. If no response is received here either, the terminal will reboot.
Restricted dialling
In order to manage the use of the system efficiently you can set up the
terminal to limit all calls to allowed numbers or numbers in the phone book.
This feature can be enabled for each connected handset separately. Each
handset has its own local number.
188 Administration

Supported AT commands for PPPoE
Overview of supported AT commands

You can use PPPoE to issue AT commands to the terminal, for example
specifying Quality of Service parameters or which APN to use.
The following AT commands are supported:
• AT+CGDCONT
• AT+CGEQREQ
• AT+CGEQMIN
• AT+CGTFT
• AT+CGDSCONT
Functions of the supported AT commands
AT+CGDCONT
Usage:
AT+CGDCONT is used to specify the Context parameters such as which
APN the context must use.
This can be used to specify a specific APN different from the one on the
SIM card.
Syntax:
AT+CGDCONT=<cid>,<protocol>,<APN>
• <cid> is the Context Identifier (1 – 11)
• <Protocol> is the transport protocol (IP or PPP)
• <APN> is the Access Point Name
• <PDP Addr> is the static IP address from APN (NOT USED!)
Example: AT+CGDCONT=1,ip,”bgan.inmarsat.com”
238 Supported AT commands for PPPoE

555
AT+CGEQREQ
Usage:
AT+CGEQREQ is the requested Quality of Service (QoS). This is used to
specify the QoS for the connection. With this command you can start a
Streaming context.
Syntax:
AT+CGEQREQ=<cid>,<Traffic Class>,<Max bitrate UL>,<Max bitrate DL>,
<Guaranteed bitrate UL>,<Guaranteed bitrate DL>
• <Traffic Class> is the traffic class (1 – Streaming, 3 – Background)
• <Max bitrate UL> is the maximum bit rate up link (0, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128,
256)
• <Max bitrate DL> is the maximum bit rate down link (0, 8, 16, 32, 64,
128, 256)
• <Guaranteed bitrate UL> is the guaranteed bit rate up link (0, 8, 16, 32,
64, 128, 256)
• <Guaranteed bitrate DL> is the guaranteed bit rate down link (0, 8, 16,
32, 64, 128, 256)
Example: AT+CGEQREQ=1,1,64,64,64,64
Troubleshooting
AT+CGEQMIN
Usage:
AT+CGEQMIN is the requested minimum acceptable Quality of Service
(QoS). If the requested Quality of Service can not be offered by the Core
Network, the data connection will not be established, not even with a lower
QoS.
Syntax:
AT+CGEQMIN=<cid>,<Traffic Class>,<Max bitrate UL>,<Max bitrate DL>,
<Guaranteed bitrate UL>, <Guaranteed bitrate DL>
• <Traffic Class> is the traffic class (1 – Streaming, 3 – Background)
• <Max bitrate UL> is the maximum bit rate up link (8, 16, 32, 64, 128,
256)
Supported AT commands for PPPoE 239

• <Max bitrate DL> is the maximum bit rate down link (8, 16, 32, 64, 128,
256)
• <Guaranteed bitrate UL> is the guaranteed bit rate up link (8, 16, 32, 64,
128, 256)
• <Guaranteed bitrate DL> is the guaranteed bit rate down link (8, 16, 32,
64, 128, 256)
Example: AT+CGEQMIN=1,1,64,64,64,64
AT+CGTFT
Usage:
AT+CGTFT is the Traffic Flow Template (TFT). This command is needed if a
secondary PDP context needs to be opened. The TFT specifies which IP
traffic should run through which PDP context.
Syntax:
AT+CGTFT=<cid>,<packet filter identifier>,<evaluation precedence index>,
<source address and subnet mask>,<protocol number>,<destination port
range>,<source port range>
• <packet filter identifier> is the packet filter identifier (1 – 8)
• <evaluation precedence index> This filter’s Evaluation Precedence Index
(0-255)
• <source addr & subnet> is (0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0-
255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255)
• <protocol number> is the protocol number (0-255)
• <destination port range> is Destination Port From.To (0.0-
65535.65535)
• <source port range> is Source Port From.To (0.0-65535.65535)
Example: AT+CGTFT=1,1,0,87.48.134.251.255.255.255.0,6,20.21,1024.65
535

555
AT+CGDSCONT
Usage:
AT+CGDSCONT is used to specify the Secondary Contexts relation to a
Primary Context. The Secondary Context’s cid must be different from the
Primary Context’s cid. The Secondary Context’s QoS must be set using the
AT+CGEQREQ command explained above.
Syntax:
AT+CGDSCONT=<cid>,<p_cid>
• <cid> is the cid for the Secondary Context
• <p_cid> is the Primary Context at which the Secondary is related to.
Example: AT+CGDSCONT=1,11
Application example
This example shows the commands needed in order to establish a Primary
Standard Data Context with a Secondary Streaming 256K Context where all
UDP traffic goes through the Streaming 256K Data connection and all other
traffic goes through the Standard Data connection.
• AT+CGDCONT=1,ip,bgan.inmarsat.com
Troubleshooting
(Specifies the APN)
• AT+CGEQREQ=1,3
(Sets cid 1 = Standard data)
• AT+CGTFT=11,1,0,,17
(Sets UDP TFT filter for cid 11)
• AT+CGEQREQ=11,1,256,256,256,256
(Sets cid 11 = Streaming 256K QoS)
• AT+CGEQMIN=11,1,256,256,256,256
(Specifies min. acceptable QoS to Streaming 256K)
• AT+CGDSCONT=11,1
(Defines Secondary cid 11 on Primary cid 1)
If you have any technical questions about the PPPoE feature please refer to
your local distributor, who can assist you with the configuration.
