Plug-and-Play Connectivity
The VSG-1000/1200 is an access server that recognizes new
users on a network and re-routes all the different IP settings
pre-configured on users' computers. By re-routing settings
such as DHCP, DNS, and Proxy, in addition to a static or
private IP, subscribers are able to gain access to the Internet
without changing any settings. The VSG-1000/1200 also
provides SMTP server re-direction, which helps users to
send e-mail via the local SMTP server instead of the
predetermined default server.
Secure Protection for Customer Login,
Remote Access and Administration
In today's business environment, companies increasingly
support VPN (Virtual Private Network) to facilitate secure
remote access to local networks. The VSG-1000/1200
allows VPN (PPTP, IPsec and L2TP) traffic pass through,
allowing telecommuters and other personnel to safely access
important or confidential information while traveling.
The VSG-1200 allows secure passing of authentication
information through SSL encryption for both web-based
administration and user login.
Flexible Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA)
The VSG-1000/1200 supports both RADIUS (Remote
Authentication Dial-In User Service) and proprietary
implementation to authenticate, authorize and record the
Internet usage of customers. The RADIUS support gives
service providers an easy way to manage and maintain a
large group of subscribers over the Internet, while the built-
in authentication server allows an administrator to control
and authenticate a subscriber's access rights based on a
login name and password. Internet usage can be easily
charged by pre-defined billing plans (by either minute, hour,
day or other options). With the PMS interface, the VSG-1200
can easily provide information on the Internet usage of
different customers to the existing property management
system in a hotel application.
Global Roaming Support
Internet mobility has been greatly increased by subscription
to roaming service offered by BOINGO, IPASS, GRIC and
others. With built-in RADIUS client, the VSG-1000/1200
exchanges AAA information with service providers' server,
and thus enables global Internet roaming service.
Easy Configuration and Management
System configuration of the VSG-1000/1200 can be saved
and exported to a file that can be used for subsequent re-
configuration or configuration of another VSG. The VSG-
1000/1200 supports port mapping, which allows system
administrators to remotely manage and configure devices
with private IP address. The Web-based management
interface of the VSG-1000/1200 offers an easy-to-use
platform, independent management, and configuration
options. The VSG-1200 supports SNMP and MIBs,
both of which can be managed via standard-based
management software.
Additional Revenue Generation
The VSG-1000/1200 offers homepage redirection as well as
multiple URL-link redirections for advertising options for
service providers, hotels or property owners. The VSG-
1000/1200 allows service providers or system administrators
to create a "walled garden" where unauthenticated users
can be granted free access to selected links.
