Nucleus Cipher Suite and Nucleus Cipher - AES Encryption algorithms, or ciphers, are being used in more and more embedded applications. The need to protect sensitive data and user privacy are the driving forces behind this trend. The Nucleus Cipher Suite is a collection of encryption ciphers and utilities designed for exactly this purpose. The Nucleus Cipher Suite can be used by itself for general purpose data encryption and can also be used by other Nucleus products that require this functionality. The algorithms provided by the Nucleus Cipher Suite are MD4, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, DES, 3DES, CAST-128, Blowfish, RSA and Diffie-Hellman. For increased security, Nucleus Cipher – AES is available as a plug-in to the Nucleus Cipher Suite. Making available the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for applications that require an increased level of security beyond what is provided in the Nucleus Cipher Suite.
Nucleus L2TPRemote network access is available in many forms. Dial-up access using the telephone system, broadband access provided at home or while on travel and wireless Ethernet access found in many public locations, for example--all of these are insecure network connections. The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) adds security to these and other forms of network connectivity. It is an emerging technology aimed at replacing the older Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP). Nucleus L2TP supports L2TP access concentrator (LAC), L2TP network server (LNS) and L2TP client functionality. Virtual Private Networks (VPN) can be built using Nucleus L2TP; VPN gateways and VPN clients. Combined with Nucleus IPsec, your devices network connections will be using one of the most secure and trusted security technologies available today.
Nucleus PPP provides a standard method for transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. In other words, PPP allows two hosts to communicate with one another over a single link, which is typically, but not always, a dial-up (modem) connection. Other than the steps needed to connect and disconnect the PPP link the PPP interface is completely transparent to the application.
Nucleus PPPoE enables a virtual point-to-point connection to be established between two hosts on an Ethernet network. Nucleus PPPoE facilitates centralized control over network access, billing and type of service, which, under normal circumstances, would not be possible with a broadcast medium such as Ethernet.
Nucleus NAT (Network Address Translation), when used in a device such as a residential gateway, allows multiple network hosts to share a single globally unique IP address. This is especially important as the number of PCs in the home continues to increase. Nucleus NAT plugs seamlessly into the rest of the Nucleus networking product line providing an ideal solution for the creation of a residential gateway.
Providing support for SSL 2.0, SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0, Nucleus SSL enables network applications such as e-commerce to perform secure transactions over the Internet. Nucleus SSL provides a secure sockets API that sits between Nucleus NET sockets and your network application making it easy to plug security into existing network applications. Nucleus WebServ is one such application that has been enhanced to take advantage of the security provided by Nucleus SSL.
Imagine people securely accessing your embedded system remotely and controlling it from any computer throughout the world using any standard Internet World Wide Web browser. Your device would gain a very exciting new interface! Nucleus WebServ allows your embedded device to serve up its own Web pages using extremely minimal resources. Among other things, Nucleus WebServ provides for remote control, remote configuration, online help and a standard method for creating a user interface. All of this over a secure connection that only authorized users are allow to access.
Nucleus SNMP and Nucleus SNMPv3 Nucleus SNMP is an embedded implementation of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP defines a framework for the management of network-capable devices and is tuned for applications where memory and other resources are limited. Two SNMP solutions are available: Nucleus SNMP, which provides support for SNMPv1, and Nucleus SNMPv3, which provides support for SNMPv1, v2c and v3. Both SNMP solutions include support for MIBII as well as a MIB compiler for creating enterprise specific MIBs. Additionally, Nucleus SNMPv3 includes support for the SNMPv3 MIB. Many other Nucleus protocols come with a MIB implementation that plugs in to Nucleus SNMP thus extending the management capabilities of those products.
The RMON management information base (RMON MIB) provides a comprehensive network management framework to achieve network fault diagnosis, trend analysis, planning and performance tuning by monitoring the physical layers of your software. Nucleus RMON has been carefully optimized for embedded use and supports all nine groups of the RMON MIB. When all 9 groups are not required Nucleus RMON Lite is available, which supports the more common 4 groups of the RMON MIB: alarm, event, history and statistics.
The North American Association of Food Equipment Manufactures (NAFEM) has created a protocol, the NAFEM Data Protocol, to be used by food equipment manufacturers to make their equipment “smart”. Kitchen equipment compliant with the NAFEM standard can communicate information such as grill temperature, hours of operation, if a faulty component has been detected, etc. to the kitchen manager. The NAFEM Data Protocol actually consists of a collection of SNMP MIBs. Nucleus NAFEM is an implementation of these MIBs designed to operate with Nucleus SNMP and the rest of the Nucleus family of networking products.
Nucleus Extended Protocol Package The Nucleus Extended Protocol Package is a package of standard network application protocols. It includes a Telnet client, a Telnet server, a FTP (File Transfer Protocol) Client, a FTP Server and a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) Server. Utilizing the extended protocol package, it is possible to both open a remote command console to an embedded target as well as transfer files to and from the target.
Utilizing Nucleus Email, your embedded system can send and receive email. Nucleus Email allows this to happen through support of two protocols: POP3 (Post Office Protocol) for receiving email and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) for sending email. An example use would be sending status messages or log files to an administrator. The administrator could also email commands to the embedded device and in this way remotely configure and control the device.
DHCP defines the protocol that allows network hosts to discover an IP address as well as other configuration parameters upon booting. Nucleus DHCP server can be used to assign configuration parameters to such hosts. A common use for a DHCP server in the embedded space is within a residential gateway. This component allows the gateway to assign IP addresses to PCs and other network devices on the home network, minimizing the knowledge necessary to configure and maintain that network.
Another DHCP related protocol; DHCP Relay helps to bridge the gap between DHCP servers and hosts that are separated by routers or firewalls. In a network configuration where such separation occurs DHCP servers will not be able to communicate with the hosts and thus will be unable to configure them. With a DHCP Relay Agent running on the intermediate router the DHCP message will be relayed between the server and host allowing for successful network configuration.
Nucleus SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) client enables your embedded device to retrieve the current time from a timeserver. This could be used at boot time to initialize a local clock or retrieve the time as needed. Nucleus SNTP client can communicate with both SNTP servers and NTP servers.
Nucleus RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) is an implementation of IEEE 802.1w-2001. RSTP is a protocol used primarily in network infrastructure equipment such as layer 2 switches. Large network typologies can consist of many switches connecting together many offices and floors in a building. It is common for loops in the network setup to be created for backup purposes, redundancy, or accidentally. In both cases loops will cause packets to infinitely traverse the network, which will bring the network down. RSTP breaks the loops to keep the network working and also detects broken connections and reroutes packets around them.
