Introduction The H3C MSR3610-I iMC EAD End-user Admission Defense Gateway (referred to as the EAD gateway hereinafter) can cooperate with access services (for example, L2TP, 802.1X, and portal) to achieve the following purposes: • Ensure endpoint access security. • Prevent endpoints from network threats.
Default VM parameters The EAD gateway is shipped with a VM. The default VM parameters are as follows: • The VM name is EAD_VM, which is case sensitive. • The VM operating system is CentOS. • The login username of the VM operating system is root, which is case sensitive. •...
Figure 3 VM login through the IP address of a VLAN interface VM network configuration The VM deployed on the EAD gateway is assigned a high-performance SR-IOV NIC by default. The NIC is shipped with IP address 10.1.1.2/30 and gateway 10.1.1.1. For a client host to access the VM, use one of the following methods: •...
Figure 4 Intra-VLAN broadcasting mode Layer 3 routing The VM NIC belongs to a VLAN. Set the IP address of the VLAN interface to an IP address reachable to the client hosts, and specify the default gateway of the VM as the IP address of the VLAN interface. The client hosts interact with the VM through a Layer 3 Ethernet interface or VLAN interface of the EAD gateway, as shown in Figure...
Deploying the EAD gateway in a network Deployment process The EAD gateway ensures endpoint access security, controls endpoints' access behaviors, and backs up authentication data in the network. Figure 6 shows the deployment process of the EAD gateway in a network. Figure 6 Deployment process Preparations for EAD gateway deployment Preparing a management host and tool software...
Connecting the management host and the EAD gateway Use the serial cable to connect the management host and the console port of the EAD gateway. The management host can use the PuTTY software to log in to the CLI of the EAD gateway through the serial cable.

Logging in to the VM In this example, IP address 192.168.0.1/23 is used as the VNC server IP address. This IP address is the default IP address of VLAN-interface 1 on the EAD gateway. Logging in to the desktop of the VM On the management host, open VNC Viewer, and connect to the desktop of the VM by using the VNC server in the format of VNC server IP address:VNC port number, as shown in Figure...
Logging in to the VM operating system As a best practice to ensure VM security, change the default login password of the VM operating system. After you use VNC Viewer to log in to the desktop of the VM, enter the username and password to log in to the VM operating system.

After the management host and the EAD gateway become reachable, you can access the IMC Web interface to configure the EAD gateway through the management host. For more information about IMC, see user manuals for the H3C Intelligent Management Center in the network management section of technical documents on H3C websites.

Figure 18 IMC component deployment Example: Deploying the EAD gateway in a network Network configuration As shown in Figure 19, configure the EAD gateway to control the access behaviors of Device A, Device B, and Device C. Device A, Device B, and Device C access Layer 2 Ethernet interface GigabitEthernet 0/2 on the EAD gateway through the switch.

Figure 19 Network diagram Procedure Configure the IP address of the management host as 192.168.0.2/23 and the default gateway as 192.168.0.1. (Details not shown.) Configure the IP addresses of Device A, Device B, and Device C as 192.168.0.3/23, 192.168.0.4/23, and 192.168.0.5/23, respectively. Configure their default gateway as 192.168.0.1.
Figure 20 Logging in to the Web interface of the IMC platform Configuring RAID About RAID Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) ensures data reliability and speeds up data reading and writing by storing data in multiple hard disks. By default, the EAD gateway is built with dual SIC-M2-SATA drives and the drives have been configured to operate in RAID 1 mode.
