Some subscribers may want additional account flexibility and security for their
services (for example, if they use more than one computer and their MAC
address changes, or if they move between port-locations). In this case, a
subscriber can define a unique user name and password which they can use from
any machine or location (without being re-charged). Subscribers who choose this
option are prompted for their user name and password whenever they try to
access the Internet. Solution providers can charge a fee for this service.
To enable SSL Support, your AG 5000’s flash must include the
server.pem , cakey.pem , and cacert.pem certificate files (the
“cacert.pem” file is provided with your AG 5000). For assistance,
contact
“Technical Support” on page 259 .
You must reboot the AG 5000 every time you enable or disable SSL
Support.
The Portal Page IP or DNS address are added to the IP passthrough list
automatically
GIS stands for Generic Interface Specification, a document written by
iPass. Enabling the Smart Client option in the AG 5000 automatically
supports all GIS compliant clients using the Internal Web Server.
Enabling “Support for GIS Clients” under the Portal Page feature
means that the AG 5000 will defer the managment of the GIS clients to
the Portal Page server.
