Network applications
Tactical All-IP
Communication
Domain
TAN T nodes inter-connect heterogeneous tactical
networks, wired and wireless, IP and non-IP, into
one unified All-IP communication domain. This
enables a transparent and robust IP network for
tactical environments, where users can
communicate end-to-end without technology
boundaries.
Multi-Protocol
Routing
TAN T supports multiple IP routing protocols, and
can intelligently arbitrate between them.
Heterogeneous
Networking
Multiple tactical network types like Ethernet, E1,
SHDSL, Eurocom, CNR, or WLAN can be connected
to TAN T.
Mesh Topology
TAN T can be used as autonomous mesh network
node.
High-Performance
Ethernet Switching
TAN T includes non-blocking, full gbit/s line rate
Ethernet switch (optical and copper).
Site-to-Site VPN
Standards compliant IPSec VPN tunnels for LAN
Ethernet ports supporting multiple authentica-
tion and encryption schemes can be established
between TAN T nodes. Available Q2/2011.
Multi-Protocol Voice
Switch (PBX)
Multiple VoIP and circuit switched voice
technologies (SIP, IAX, ISDN, Eurocom, Analog)
are supported by the built-in PBX.
VoIP Gateway
The TAN T PBX can convert between all supported
voice technologies, allowing it to be used as VoIP
gateway, e.g. ISDN-to-SIP, or Analog-to-SIP.
Voice Trunking
Multiple TAN T nodes can build a fully inter-
connected voice network. Flexible number
translation per voice trunk allows for integration
into different numbering domains.
Integration of HF/
VHF/LOS Radios
Routing algorithms optimized for low bandwidth,
high latency radio networks are available and
allow to route traffic over wireless radio
networks.
Network Services
TAN T provides network services to locally
attached LANs, as DHCP, DNS, and NTP services.
DiffServ Traffic
Shaping
The built-in QoS engine allows for shaping traffic
with prioritization based on DiffServ or 802.1D
classification.
Data features
Switching / VLAN
TAN T provides non-blocking, line rate switching
for all LAN Ethernet ports (copper and optical)
including support for 802.1Q VLAN.
IP Routing
TAN T routing engine supports static, OSPF, BGP,
PIM-SM, and IGMP routing protocols. Specialized
routing algorithms are available for mesh
networking and integration of radio networks.
Filtering and redistribution of routes is
supported.
WLAN Access Point
TAN T includes 802.11 a/b/g compliant wirelss
LAN access point. Available Q2/2011.
QoS
DiffServ standards compliant IP/Ethernet traffic
conditioning, based on IP DSCP or Ethernet
802.1p fields. Hardware traffic shaper works at
gbit/s line rate.
DNS
RFC compliant DNS server supporting dynamic
DNS in combination with included DHCP server.
Upstream DNS server (forwarders) and caching of
DNS queries are supported.
DHCP
Full featured standards compliant DHCP server
supporting multiple IP subnets.
NTP
NTP server and client functionality in order to
provide accurate timing information for
connected devices. Time sources for NTP server
include GPS, remote NTP servers, or local clock.
Standards, Protocols
IEEE 802.3 Ethernet (Cu/FO), E1/T1 G.703/704,
SHDSL, Eurocom Data (Ascom proprietary),

Voice features
PBX
IP PBX supporting analogue (FXO, FXS, radio),
digital (ISDN, Eurocom), and VoIP (SIP, H.323,
IAX) interfaces. Technology neutral voice
switching core combined with voice application
platform for fast development of customer
specific voice features. Support for direct inward
and outward dial (DID/DOD) with caller-ID.
Voice Gateway
Full voice gateway functionality including
support for DTMF and caller-ID for all available
analogue, digital, and VoIP interfaces.
Number Translation
Number translation (NT) applied on called and
calling numbers for incoming and outgoing calls.
PBX includes multiple NT hooks in call routing
path, as e.g. one NT per voice trunk. TAN T can be
easily integrated into existing dialing plans.
Voice Trunking
IAX trunks allow to setup bandwidth optimized
VoIP channel bundles between TAN T nodes. ISDN,
Eurocom, SIP, and H.323 trunks are available for
connecting TAN T to existing telephony
infrastructure, including PSTN.
Automatic Number
Resolution
Number flood searching allows for deploying flat
dialplans.
Voice Applications
Conferencing, hotline, MLPP (available July 2011)
alternate routing (available July 2011). Fast
development of customer specific applications.

Security
IPSec VPN
Encrypted site-to-site IPSec VPNs supporting
multiple authentication methods. Available
Q3/2011.
Firewall/NAT
Firewall supporting filtering rules with access to
full IP packet headers. Stateless and stateful
filtering. Network address translation (NAT) for
private LANs. Available Q3/2011.
Key Store
Import and management of PKI certificates and
CRLs. Available Q3/2011.
Emergency Erase

hardware or software key, also when node is
switched off. Available Q3/2011.
System Management
Management GUI
Web GUI for configuring and monitoring TAN T,
remotely through IP network, or locally through
laptop/PC connected to service Ethernet port. GUI
framework allows for fast development of
customer specific GUIs, e.g. mission specific
configuration wizards.
