9. The Alarm Filters (Toll Fraud Detection) The Alarm Filters allow NetLink II to monitor call records, and check for characteristics of Toll Fraud or other forms of phone abuse. When suspect calls are detected, NetLink II can send an SNMP Trap or an email message, contact a local PC via the Console Port, or dial a modem or pager. The Alarm Filter has priority over the Data Filter; even if a call is rejected by the Data Filter, it will still be counted and stored if it matches an Alarm Clue.

Business Hours Duration: Determines how often the alarm counter will be reset during defined business hours.
The Alarm Filters (Toll Fraud Detection) Action Parameters (Items 21 - 31): These items determine how NetLink II will react when the counter for this clue exceeds the threshold value. If default Alarm Filter Action parameters have been defined (Section 9.2.1) each prompt will be configured according to the default. Action Parameters for each Clue can be individually defined, and parameters specified by defaults can also be edited. This allows you to assign different Pager Numbers and etc. to each clue.

10. PBX Inactivity Alarms The PBX Inactivity Alarms allow NetLink II to provide notification in the event of PBX failure or disconnection. If NetLink II does not receive PBX data for a user-defined period of time, an alarm will be generated, allowing you to investigate as quickly as possible. NetLink II features two separate PBX Inactivity Alarms. When NetLink II is connected to more than one PBX unit, this allows the user to define two alarm schedules, and apply the most appropriate schedule to each PBX.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide Two separate weekday schedules allow you to specify slow and heavy PBX activity periods during the work week; the two weekend schedules allow you to define slow and heavy periods on weekends. In both cases, Schedule 1 is assigned to the busy period, and Schedule 2 is assigned to the slow period. Note that Schedule 2 has priority over Schedule 1, and timer schedules are often defined to overlap.

12. Alarm Actions When an alarm is generated, NetLink II can call a modem or pager, send an SNMP Trap, send an email message, or contact the user via the Console Port. These tasks are referred to as "Alarm Actions". The Alarm Actions discussed in this chapter can be applied to Toll Fraud Alarms, PBX Inactivity Alarms, or the 80% Full Alarm. In addition, NetLink II can also perform these Alarm Actions according to a userdefined schedule, as described in Section 13.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 12.1. Alarm Actions for Alarm Filter Clues NetLink II allows the definition of up to sixteen Alarm Clues for each of the two Alarm Filters. Each clue can be assigned its own individual Alarm Action. For example, when one Alarm Clue is triggered, the unit may perform a callout, when another clue is triggered, the unit may send an email message. In addition, each clue can be assigned separate callout numbers or pager numbers.
Alarm Actions 12.2.2. Callout If "Callout" is selected, NetLink II will call a remote modem when an alarm is generated. After contacting the modem, NetLink II can then send an Alarm Message and/or execute a user-defined command string. Typically, the Alarm Message describes the type of event that has occurred, and the Auto Execute Command string will usually report status or prompt the NetLink II to download data.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 12.2.4. Numeric Page When "Numeric Page" is selected, NetLink II will contact one numeric pager at a user defined number. Note: Modem Port communications parameters must be properly defined as described in Section 5.4.4. The following item must be defined at the configuration menu for the specified alarm: • Phone Number: Enter the number for your numeric pager. Note: For Numeric Paging, the Phone Number prompt can specify both the Pager phone number and a numeric "message".
Alarm Actions 12.2.6. Email / Text Message If the "Email/Text Message" action is selected, NetLink II can send an email or text message to a user-defined address when an alarm is generated. Notes: • In order to use the Email / Text Message action, target email addresses must first be defined via the Network Port Configuration Menu, Item 38, as described in Section 5.4.5.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 12.3. The Auto Execute Function Both the Callout action and Console action allow NetLink II to automatically execute a user-defined command string. This command string is usually employed to report system status or download data to the polling device. The Auto Execute command consists of a string of ^Bxx Commands, which are listed in Section 17 of this User's Guide.
13. Scheduled Actions Scheduled Actions are generally used to retrieve data or to perform a "wellness" check according to a user-defined time table. Typically, the NetLink II will contact your PC at the scheduled time and day, and then automatically download collected data. Note that in addition to the Scheduled Actions described in this section, you can also schedule the unit to regularly perform a Push action, as described in Section 5.4.6.

PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 14.3. Configuring NetLink II with Saved Parameters Once parameters have been saved to an ASCII file, the file can then be uploaded to the NetLink II to reconfigure the unit without manually defining each parameter. The ASCII file with the saved parameters can also be uploaded to other NetLink II units. This allows rapid set-up when a number of units will be configured with the same parameters. 1. 2. 3. Access command mode as described in Section 17.1.
15. Buffer Functions (Polling) The procedures in this section are used to retrieve data that has been collected from the PBX. NetLink II offers three different polling methods: 1. Menu Driven: NetLink II is contacted via modem or Console Port, and the Buffer Functions Menu is used to release data. 2. Command Driven: NetLink II is contacted via modem or Console Port, and ^Bxx commands are entered at the command prompt to release data. 3.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide Figure 15.1: Data Partitions and Files 15.1.1. Partitions and Files When data is received from the PBX, NetLink II sorts each record into one of six possible "files." Records are sorted according to Data Type and Source Port. There are three Data Types; Standard Data (Non-Alarm Records), Records that match Alarm Filter 1, and Records that match Alarm Filter 2. There are two source ports; the Serial PBX Port and the PBX IP Port. As shown in Figure 15.
Buffer Functions (Polling) 15.1.2. Setting the Partition The following events will cause NetLink II to set a data partition: 1. Menu-Driven Read Session: When the Buffer Functions menu is used to release data, a partition will be set for the port that initiated the read session. This partition will include all data selected by the Read Session Parameters menu. For more information, please refer to Section 15.2. 2.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 15.1.3. Releasing the Partition Any of the following events will release the partition: 1.

PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 2. Data Type: Determines which type of data will be released. The following data types may be selected: 1. All: Releases all data from the buffer, including both alarm data and non- alarm data. 2. Standard (Non-Alarm): Release records that did not match an Alarm Clue. 3. Alarm 1 (All): Release all data that matched any Alarm Clue defined for Alarm Filter 1. 4. Alarm 1 (By Clue): Release records that matched a specific Alarm Clue for Alarm Filter 1. 5.
Buffer Functions (Polling) 15.3. Command Driven Data Release Data can also be released by invoking Command ^B01. The ^B01 command line can include optional arguments which are used to release specific types of data. These arguments are similar to the options offered under the Set Read Session Parameters menu. The command driven procedure consists of the following steps: Note: Prior to reading data, the user must select output options (Output Mode, Data on ^B01, etc.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide 15.3.1. Command ^B00 (Set/Release Partition) Command ^B00 can be used to set or release the partition prior to beginning command driven data release. Notes: • If the ^B00 command line does not include an argument, the partition will be set to include all data by default. • Although the ^B00 command line can include both the Data Type and Source Port arguments, the Release partition argument (R) cannot be combined with another argument.
Buffer Functions (Polling) 15.3.2. The ^B01 Command Line If the ^B01 command line does not include optional arguments, and no partitions have been set, command ^B01 will release all data by default. Note: If the partition for your port has not been set, the ^B01 command arguments will set the partition location.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide Notes: • If both Alarm Filters include identical clue names, the data release command must specify the desired Filter. For example, if Alarm Filters 1 and 2 both include a clue named TEST, to retrieve alarm data from filter 1, the command would be invoked as ^B01,A1,"TEST". • Square brackets are not included in the command line. They are shown here to indicate optional command arguments.
Buffer Functions (Polling) 3. Remaining Memory Space: To send a message that lists NetLink II's remaining memory, type ^B21 [Enter]. 4.

PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide D. Alarm Clue Definition Tips This Section describes techniques that can be used to avoid common problems that are often encountered when defining Alarm Clues. To effectively detect Toll Fraud, Alarm Clues must produce an accurate count of calls that match the characteristics of a suspect phone call. Careful planning will allow you to create clues that count suspect calls, and ignore calls you don't need. D.1.
Appendices For example, if the variable "B" represents call duration and you wish to check for calls lasting longer than 15 minutes, the definition would include the phrase "B>15:00". Unfortunately, this would also count headers that have alphabetic text in the call duration field. If your Alarm Clues are also counting non-data, the techniques described in the following sections can be used to obtain a more reliable count. D.1.1.1.
PollCat NetLink II - User’s Guide However, when the clue is defined this way, headers and summaries with alphabetic characters in the "B" field would also appear in the count. In order to exclude undesired records, assume you have determined that call records always begin with the character "|" (vertical bar).
Appendices E. SSH Application Notes The NetLink II has been tested with a wide variety of SSH server applications, including BitVise WinSSH, F-Secure Server, GlobalScape and the OpenSSH server. This section describes the procedure for setting up the NetLink II to work with a BitVise WinSSH server. E.1.
