SECTION 1.1 MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTS
Item 1 Management Accounts
It has been common practice, in the past, for in-field technicians, and lower level remote support, to receive full
admin access.
As of “Solution Suite 3” , multiple accounts are utilized for department appropriate access to VisionNet modems.
Item 2 Security Advisory
Strict adherence to the following account access restrictions is advised:
High Level Access Limited to Network Design and High Level Support departments
Medium Level Access Limited to in-field installers and ISP employed customer support
Low Level Access
ONLY THIS LEVEL ACCESS SHOULD BE PROVIDED TO END
USERS

SECTION 1.2 GUI ACCESS
STEP 1 Verify IP Information
1.A Determine the IP and Port of the service
interface.
If you are accessing the unit remotely:
Determine the WAN IP and Service Port.
Verify that your local IP will not be blocked by any
gateway, or network, ACLs.
If you are accessing the unit locally:
Determine the LAN IP of the gateway.
In a NAT, or Routed configuration, this will be your
Gateway IP, assigned by DHCP.
In a Bridged configuration, you will need to statically
assign an IP, to your device, within the same subnet
as the gateway’s unadvertised LAN IP.
Step 2 Connect via Web Browser
2.A In your browser’s address bar, enter the IP
Address and, if remote, port number used for
access.
Example of WAN Access:
http://172.20.100.18
Example of LAN Access:
http://192.168.6.1
2.B
When Challenged, enter the username and
password associated with your account.

STEP 1 Verify IP Information
1.A Determine the IP and Port of the service
interface.
If you are accessing the unit remotely:
Determine the WAN IP and Service Port.
Verify that your local IP will not be blocked by any

In a Bridged configuration, you will need to statically
assign an IP, to your device, within the same subnet
as the gateway’s unadvertised LAN IP.
Step 2 Connect via Client
2.A Via your OS Terminal, or Console Program,
you may enter the IP and Port information
Example of WAN Access:
172.20.100.18
Example of LAN Access:
192.168.6.1

SECTION 2: WAN CONFIGURATION
SECTION 2.1 WAN LOGIC OVERVIEW
Item 1 OSI RELATION
1.A WAN IF (Interfaces)
There are three possible “Layer 1 – 2” WAN
Configurations Available
ATM
Available for: xDSL Interface
Most Commonly Associated with ADSL
PTM
Available for: xDSL Interface
Most Commonly Associated with VDSL2
ETH
Available for: Omni-Port WAN Interface
Building This Interface Removes the “OmniPort” from LAN Operation
Configured Here:
Physical WAN Interfaces Used, Data Link, VLAN
Mux, QoS, ATM PVC’s, ATM Non-Ethernet
Services.
1.B WAN Services
There are three possible “Layer 2 – 3” WAN
Configurations Available
Bridged
Available for: ATM, PTM, ETH
Passes Traffic – No Routing
IPoE
Available for: ATM, PTM, ETH
Routing, WAN Clients (DHCP, RADVD, ETC),
Firewall Type, NAT, Proxies
PPP
Available for: ATM, PTM, ETH
PPP Client, Routing, WAN Clients (DHCP,
RADVD, ETC), Firewall Type, NAT, Proxies
Configured Here:
Service Type, VLAN Tagging, Routing Services, IP
Services, WAN Clients and Proxies

Item 2 WAN Creation / Deletion
2.A
Building WAN Services
WAN Services Must be added as follows
1: Add & Define WAN Interface
ATM
PTM
ETH (Omni-Port)
2: Add and Define Service to Interface
ATM
PTM
ETH (Omni-Port)
3: Prioritize for Default Service Group
Gateway
DNS
4: Add Service Group
If Applicable
2.B Tearing Down WAN Services
WAN Services Must be removed as follows:
1: Remove WAN Service
This must be removed first
2: Remove Interface
This may not be removed unless all
associated WAN Services are removed
3: Remove Service Group
Remaining Group Interfaces will not be
ungrouped by default
Page of User Manual Rev 0.1e
368VisionNet M505N
Item 3 Physical Port Prioritization
3.1 There are three Physical WAN Options
xDSL Operation
This operation only allows the xDSL port
to be used for WAN operation.
This will not convert the “Omni-Port” to
LAN mode if an “ETH” Interface is enabled
Omni-Port WAN Operation
This operation only allows WAN Service
through the Omni-Port.
This will not remove created xDSL
Services
WAN Time-out Operation
If xDSL signal is not detected, within a
specified amount of time (default 120
seconds), the created Omni-Port WAN
Interface will be activated.
