The IP Upsell feature solves a number of connectivity problems, especially with regard to certain
video conferencing and online gaming applications.
You have additional flexibility for configuring up sell scenarios. Users can be assigned WAN’s of
different bandwidth capabilities; for example, hotel guests with loyalty memberships can qualify for
premium services.
IPv6 Device Management
There are many network management tools that have IPv6 support. They can communicate to the
network devices and servers over IPv4 or IPv6 transport. They can also perform communications to
those devices and servers utilizing the IPv6 interface for configuration, performance and status. The ability to
manage infrastructure devices that are addressed with IPv6 addresses behind the Gateway is built in.
Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)
Link Aggregation Control Protocol is a useful feature for creating dynamic port groupings or Aggregate
Groups. LACP allows for the combing (aggregation) of multiple network connections in parallel in order to
increase throughput beyond what a single connection could sustain, and to provide redundancy in case one of
the links should fail. A Link Aggregation Group (LAG) must be configured to combine a number of physical
ports together to make a single logical interface. The network must be configured and support active LACP.
Link Aggregation will not allow throughput beyond the device supported throughput.
Logout Pop-Up Window
As an alternative to the ICC, the NSE delivers a HTML-based pop-up window with the following
functions:
Provides the opportunity to display a single logo.
Displays the session’s elapsed/count-down time.
Presents an explicit Logout button.

MAC Filtering
MAC Filtering enhances Nomadix' access control technology by allowing system administrators to
block malicious users based on their MAC address. Up to 50 MAC addresses can be blocked at any
one time. See also
on page 20.
Multi-Level Administration Support
The NSE allows you to define 2 concurrent access levels to differentiate between managers and
operators, where managers are permitted read/write access and operators are restricted to read access
only.
Once the logins have been assigned, managers have the ability to perform all write commands
(Submit, Reset, Reboot, Add, Delete, etc.), but operators cannot change any system settings. When
Administration Concurrency is enabled, one manager and three operators can access the Access
Gateway platform at any one time.
Multi-WAN Interface Management
The NSE supports multiple independently configurable WAN interfaces, to optimize ISP resource
allocation, and provide load balancing (optional), fail-over and upsell capabilities.
