Chapter 2. Getting started

To get started using the Mobility Client, it helps to first understand network accessusing Nokia devices. Then, review and verify that you have met the prerequisitesand complete the tasks described in the following sections.

Understanding network accessEach network connection on Nokia devices is represented by a named Internetaccess point (IAP). There are several types of IAPs: WiFi, general packet radioservice (GPRS), global system for mobile communications (GSM), IP pass-through,and virtual private network (VPN). You create separate IAPs for each specificconnection within these types. For example, you would have separate IAPs (withnames you define) for each network type that you use: GPRS access point name(APN), GSM phone number, and WiFi service set identifier (SSID).

Note: WiFi is not supported on the Nokia 9300.

PrerequisitesThe list of detailed system requirements is available online. See:v Detailed system requirementsv Hardware requirementsv Supported operating systemsv List of supported software

Installing and launching the Mobility ClientInstall the Mobility Client on your Nokia device using a SIS or SISX file. A SIS fileis used on Nokia Communicator devices. A SISX file is used on Nokia E seriesdevices. Use the SIS or SISX file to install the software from a computer or it canalso be downloaded using e-mail or the phone's browser, then installed. It can alsobe installed to a memory card. Refer to the documentation that came with yourNokia device.

After you complete the installation, the Mobility Client is displayed in your list ofapplications.

When you launch the Mobility Client by selecting the Mobility Client applicationfrom the list of applications, a window opens.On Nokia E series devices, thewindow is named Mobility Client and on the Nokia Communicator devices, thewindow is named Mobility Client Accounts.

Creating a new accountThe settings in your account determine the Connection Manager to which youconnect and how data is transmitted, such as whether it is encrypted orcompressed.

None Disables encryption

AES128A 128-bit encryption algorithm using advanced encryptionstandard (AES)

AES192A 192-bit encryption algorithm using AES

AES256A 256-bit encryption algorithm using AES

DES An encryption algorithm using DES (data encryption standard)

Auto roamingSetting this parameter to Yes causes the Mobility Client to periodicallysearch for higher priority IAPs to use in communicating with theConnection Manager. If a higher priority IAP is found, then theMobility Client switches to that connection. The existing virtual privatenetwork (VPN) session is maintained in a seamless way during thisphysical connection transfer.

Notes:

a. Auto roaming is only available when you have more thanone connection defined for the account.

b. Setting Auto roaming to No does not disable roaming. Aslong as your account has more than one connection specifiedfrom the list of IAPs, then you can manually roam byselecting Roam.

c. Auto roaming consumes additional power. To minimizebattery usage, do not enable Auto roaming. Instead,manually initiate roaming on the Mobility Client screen:

On Nokia E seriesPress the Options softkey, then select the Roammenu item.

To export a configuration file:1. On the device from the Mobility Client Accounts window, press the Menu key.2. Use the arrow keys to select Tools → Export configuration.3. Determine if you want to export the file as a platform-independent

configuration or whether you want to export the complete configuration. SelectExport as platform-independent → Yes when you want to export aconfiguration that can be used by any installed Mobility Clients. Select Exportas platform-independent → No when you want to export a configuration thatcan be used only by Mobility Clients using Nokia devices.

4. When Export as platform-independent is set to No, determine if you want toExport advanced settings for the account. When exporting a configuration asplatform-independent, this field is ignored.

5. Select Export to export the file.6. By default, you are prompted to save the file in this directory:

Enter the file name, then select OK.When Export as platform-independent is set to No, the default file name isconfig.wecm. When Export as platform-independent is set to Yes, the defaultfile name is config.pdb.

7. Transfer the exported file from the device to the desktop machine.

To import a configuration file:1. Transfer the file to import from the desktop machine to the directory My

Files\Mobility Client\Import.2. On the device from the Mobility Client Accounts windows, press the Menu

key.3. Use the arrow keys to select Tools → Import configuration.4. Select the file you want to import, then select Open or select Browse to find

the file from another directory. Select OK to import the file.

The Mobility Client automatically determines if the imported file isplatform-dependent or platform-independent and handles the format accordingly.If the advanced settings were specified in the export that created the import file,then the advanced settings replace the current advanced settings in the devicewithout any prompting.

The accounts in the import file are all added to the phone. If an account name inthe import file already exists, a message displays indicating that the account existsand will merge the two accounts. When an account is merged, the user ID andpassword of the account originally on the device is maintained. Then, eachconfiguration item for that account that is defined in the import file replaces thevalue in the account currently on the device. If a configuration item in the importfile is omitted, then the original value in the account is retained.

Checking that applications are running before connectingThe Mobility Client can check that certain programs are running, like antivirus orpersonal firewall software, before allowing the connection to start.

You can modify the configuration file to add parameters that let the MobilityClient check for up to 16 applications before starting a connection. If theapplications listed are not running, the Mobility Client starts them for you. Toconfigure these settings, manually edit the configuration file.See Chapter 5,“Configuring clients with configuration files,” on page 23.

Note: If an application cannot be started, an error message is displayed. You willnot be able to log on until all necessary applications are running.

Application configuration parameters are stored in the account configuration fileand stored in c:\system\data\Mobility Client\accounts directory. To create newconfiguration or change existing application check parameters, enter them in the<account_name>.conf file:

PrereqAppName1 ... PrereqAppName16One PrereqAppName for each application that must be executing before aconnection attempt can proceed. The application name is a descriptivename that is displayed to the user in informational and error messages.

Using cross-network roamingUsing seamless cross-network roaming, the Mobility Client connection andapplications persist when switching networks in a multi-network environment.Persistence allows switching physical networks, while preserving both theconnection and application session. At configurable intervals, the Mobility Clientchecks to see if there is a connection available that is of higher priority than theconnection currently being used.

The candidate connections available for roaming are those Internet access points(IAP) displayed:

On Nokia E seriesin the list as seen on the Select IAP window

On Nokia Communicatorin the list as seen on the Connections tab of the logged in account.

The priority of these IAPs are determined by their relative priority positions set inlist. An exception to the roaming priority occurs on WiFi IAPs. When the MobilityClient is currently connected to a WiFi IAP and a higher priority WiFi IAPbecomes available, it will not switch to it. To set the priority of IAPs, see“Changing Internet access point priority” on page 21.

Roaming is enabled or disabled for each account.1. To modify or view roaming configuration:

On Nokia E series

a. Press the button next to Options on the Mobility Client window.Select Account → Edit.

b. Scroll down until you see Auto roaming.

On Nokia Communicator

a. Use the arrow keys to select Account and press the button next toEdit on the Mobility Client Accounts window.

b. Press the Menu key to select the Settings tab.c. Use the arrow keys to select Auto roaming.

2. Select Yes if you want Mobility Client to periodically check for the availabilityof Internet Access Points (IAPs) assigned to the network ID you choose foryour account. If an IAP with a higher priority becomes available, MobilityClient roams to take advantage of that IAP. Select No if you do not want toroam while you are logged in to Mobility Client. If you select No, MobilityClient uses the highest priority IAP available at the time you log in. It uses thisIAP throughout the duration of your session.

3. If Auto roaming is set to Yes, then use the arrow keys to select Roaminginterval. This field specifies in seconds how often the Mobility Client checks tosee if a higher priority IAP is available for roaming. The default value is 30seconds.

4. On Nokia Communicator devices only, use the arrow keys to select theConnections tab. If you access any WiFi networks whose service set identifier(SSID) names are hidden, select any applicable networks and select Edit, thenselect Hidden network? and choose Yes.If you do select to use hidden WiFi networks, you might want to set theRoaming interval higher than the default value.

5. Select Done when complete.

Chapter 5. Configuring clients with configuration files

To configure a Mobility Client to use a specific configuration, first export aconfiguration file that is not platform-independent. Then, edit the file to containthe parameters you want to use and import the configuration file. See “Exportingand importing configuration files” on page 17 for more detail.

The configuration file consists of lines of the form: parameter-name =parameter-value. Parameter names are alphanumeric strings. Parameter values canbe textual or numerical. Note that parameters that take boolean values use 1 fortrue and 0 for false.

The configuration file is stored in the c:\system\data\Mobility Client\accountsdirectory and is named account_name.conf, where account_name is the name of theaccount. The first line of the file is WECM EXPORT. If this line is missing, the filedoes not import correctly.

The file is divided into sections. Each section is preceded by a period (.) and asection name. The first section, .account account_name, contains global informationabout the configuration of this Mobility Client. Subsequent sections containinformation about the connections and their interfaces and are preceded by.interface . Global configuration settings are preceded by the .global tag. The endof the .interface and .global sections are specified by .end.

If no value is specified for a parameter, the Mobility Client will either use a defaultvalue, attempt to negotiate a value for the parameter at connect time, or promptthe user.

Note: Do not attempt to change these values when the Mobility Client account isconnected to the Connection Manager.

Table 1. Account parameters configuration

Parameter name Description

ALPRetries The number of times to reattempt a failed logon negotiationwith the Connection Manager. The default value is 3. Usedonly if UseSpeedForWLPSettings is set to 0. WhenRequestTransportProfile = 1, this parameter is ignored.

ALPTimeout The number of seconds to wait for a logon attempt tocomplete before timing out and closing the connection. Thedefault value is 30. Used only if UseSpeedForWLPSettings isset to 0. When RequestTransportProfile = 1, this parameter isignored.

AuthMethod Method that the Connection Manager uses to validate theMobility Client. This value should not be changed from thedefault value of 1 unless instructed by your administrator.Allowable values are:

0 Reserved

1 The Connection Manager requires user ID andpassword authentication.

2 Reserved

Table 1. Account parameters configuration (continued)

Parameter name Description

Autostart1...Autostartn One Autostart for each application to be automatically startedafter a successful logon to the Connection Manager. Theapplication name includes the complete path, withoutparameters. The order of which application is started first isdetermined by the numeric order in the configuration file.

AutostartParams1 ...AutostartParamsn

One AutostartParams for each parameter required for thecorresponding Autostartn application. Must be present, butblank, if no parameters are required for a given application.The order of which parameters are checked first isdetermined by the numeric order in the configuration file.

BlackHoleDecrement The value used to decrement padded configure requestswhen performing black hole detection. The default value is100 bytes.

BroadcastPgmName This parameter is ignored by the Mobility Client for theNokia 9300/9500 Communicator.

BroadcastPort This parameter is ignored by the Mobility Client for theNokia 9300/9500 Communicator.

Compression When this boolean parameter is set to 1, the Mobility Clientattempts to negotiate a compressed connection with theConnection Manager. The only form of compression that iscurrently supported is BSD LZW compression as provided bythe zlib library. This parameter is useful for low-bandwidthconnections, but is not recommended in cases where thetransmission speed is largely CPU bound (for example, anencrypted broadband connection). The default value is 1.When RequestTransportProfile=1, this parameter is ignored.

ConnectionCount Indicates how many IAPs are associated with the account.

DetectBlackHoles 1 = an advertised speed of network connection is 10 Mbps orgreater, client will pad configuration requests sent to thegateway to the maximum network MTU size in an effort todetect black holes. If the configuration request times out, thenthe retry will be decremented using BlackHoleDecrementbefore being retransmitted. This should be set to 0 in the casewhere the client is using a high speed adapter, but there is avery slow or inefficient intermediate link between the clientand the gateway.

The default value is 1.

DeviceLib This parameter is ignored by the Mobility Client for theNokia 9300/9500 Communicator.

EnablePktJoining This parameter is ignored by the Mobility Client for theNokia 9300/9500 Communicator. WhenRequestTransportProfile = 1, this parameter is ignored.

GatewaySuppliesDNS When this boolean option is set to 1, DNS informationnegotiated with the Connection Manager is set in the systemenvironment at connect time. The DNS information typicallyincludes primary and secondary DNS servers and the localdomain name. This results in the /etc/resolv.conf file beingbacked up and edited. When the Mobility Client is not shutdown cleanly, /etc/resolv.conf may not be restored properly.If this happens, the original DNS configuration can berestored by entering the /etc directory and renamingresolv.conf.ibmwc<pid> backup to resolv.conf. The defaultvalue is 1.

HeaderReduction When this boolean parameter is set to 1, the Mobility Clientattempts to negotiate IP header reduction with theConnection Manager. IP header reduction can reduce theamount of traffic sent over the network interface, but isgenerally only really useful for low-bandwidth connections.The default value is 0. When RequestTransportProfile = 1,this parameter is ignored.

IAP<number> Indicates the IAPs associated with the account. For exampleif you have two IAPs, one named T-Mobile and the othernamed IBMLeap, you'll have the keys: IAP1=T-Mobile andIAP2=IBMLeap

IAParm<number> Indicates a parameter that corresponds to the IAP named inthe IAP<number> key (IAP1 goes with IAPParm1 etc). IfIAParm<number> is set to hidden, then it indicates that thecorresponding IAP is a WiFi one with a hidden SSID. Anyother value means its SSID is public. This key is ignored fornon-WiFi IAPs.

InterfaceList Reserved. Value is accountname_device.conf.
