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.

Credit Card

The Credit Card provides a secure interface over SSL to enable billing via a credit card for
High Speed Internet Access (HSIA). This module also includes the Bill Mirror functionality
for posting of billing records to multiple sources.

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,

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.
