VSG-1000 Vantage Service Gateway
5-2 Subscriber Control
5.2 Management Type
You can set the VSG to authenticate subscriber in a number of ways:
User agreement
CAS (Central Authentication Service)
Built-in authentication
Remote RADIUS server
5.2.1 Super User Account
For built-in and remote RADIUS authentication methods, you can set up a super user account. This account is
useful for testing the Internet connection from the LAN through the VSG. The super user account allows multiple
logins but no system configuration is allowed.
Anyone using the super user account can get Internet connectivity for free as no billing
mechanism or time limitation is imposed.
5.2.2 User Agreement
In cases where authentication is not required and anyone can access the Internet through the VSG, you can set the
VSG to redirect client users to an Internet service usage agreement page.
Users
must accept the service usage agreement before they can access the Internet.
Display the Subscriber Control screen as shown.
