Access Control
For IP-based access control, the NSE incorporates a master access control list that checks the source (IP
address) of administrator logins. A login is permitted only if a match is made with the master list contained
within the NSE. If a match is not made, the login is denied, even if a correct login name and password are
supplied.
The access control list supports up to 50 (fifty) entries in the form of a specific IP address or range of IP
addresses.
The NSE also offers access control based on the interface being used. This feature allows administrators to
block access from Telnet, Web Management, and FTP sources.
Administration can now be performed after unblocking the interfaces for the Subscriber side of the NSE. The
Administrative ports are configurable as well. See

Bandwidth Management
The NSE optimizes bandwidth by limiting bandwidth usage symmetrically or asymmetrically on a per device
(MAC address / User) basis, and manages the WAN Link traffic to provide complete bandwidth management
over the entire network. You can ensure that every user has a quality experience by placing a bandwidth
ceiling on each device accessing the network, so every user gets a fair share of the available bandwidth.
With the Nomadix ICC feature enabled, subscribers can increase or decrease their own bandwidth and pricing
plans for their service dynamically.
You can set default maximum up and down bandwidths for subscribers who do
not have a specified bandwidth setting. See
