Getting Started
The WHG Controller is capable of managing user
authentication, authorization and accounting. The user
account information is stored in the local database or a
specified external database server (AAA Server).
It features an external payment gateway with integrated
user authentication, allowing users to easily pay the fee
and enjoy the Internet service by using credit cards
through Authorize.net, PayPal, SecurePay, or WorldPay.
The WHG introduces the concept of Service Zones -
multiple virtual networks, each with its own definable
Access Control profiles. This is very useful for hotspot
owners to provide different customers or staff with
different levels of network services.
