This chapter shows you how to set up computer and web site passthrough.

17.1 About the Passthrough

There are two types of pass through you can set up on the VSG: by device or by web site
address You can set the VSG to allow specific computers (based on the IP or MAC address) to
access the Internet without prompting for a user name and password.
To allow global access to web sites, specify the web site address (by IP address or URL) that
any user can access without logging in. This is similar to the walled garden feature, but
without displaying the web site link(s) in the subscriber login screen. You have to inform the
users about which web sites they can access for free.

17.2 Configuring Passthrough

To configure passthrough on the VSG, click Advanced and then Passthrough.

17.2.1 Subscriber Computer Passthrough

You can specify the IP or MAC address(es) of a computer that can access the Internet without
entering a user name and password. This feature is useful, for example, if you want to set up
computers to provide free Internet access in the VIP room or for sponsors in events.
