Bridge Mode

This feature allows complete and unconditional access to devices. When Bridge
Mode is enabled, your NSE-powered product is effectively transparent to the network
in which it is located.
The NSE forwards any and all packets (except those addressed to the NSE network
interface). The packets are unmodified and can be forwarded in both directions. The
Bridge Mode function is a very useful feature when troubleshooting your entire
network as it allows administrators to effectively "remove" your product from the
network without physically disconnecting the unit.

Command Line Interface

The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a character-based user interface that can be
accessed remotely or via a direct cable connection. Until your Nomadix product is up
and running on the network, the CLI is the Network Administrator's window to the
system. Software upgrades can only be performed from the CLI.

Dynamic Address Translation™

Dynamic Address Translation (DAT) enables transparent broadband network
connectivity, covering all types of IP configurations (static IP, DHCP, DNS),
regardless of the platform or the operating system used—ensuring that everyone gets
access to the network without the need for changes to their computer's configuration
settings or client-side software. The NSE supports both PPTP and IPSec VPNs in a
manner that is transparent to the user and that provides a more secure standard
connection. See also,
"Transparent Connectivity" on page
12.

Dynamic Transparent Proxy

The NSE directs all HTTP and HTTPS proxy requests through an internal proxy
which is transparent to subscribers (no need for users to perform any reconfiguration
tasks). Uniquely, the NSE also supports clients that dynamically change their browser
status from non-proxy to proxy, or vice versa. In addition, the NSE supports proxy
ports 80, 800-900, 911 and 990 as well as all unassigned ports (for example, ports
above 1024), thus ensuring far fewer proxy related support calls than competitive
products.
