HS960 Wireless Gateway User Guide YML857 Rev1 4 www.netcomm.com.au

1. INTRODUCTION

The NetComm HS960 is a compact intelligent gateway integrated with a four-port port-based VLAN switch. It provides Plug’ Play Internet access, advanced security and network management.

The HS960 is designed for service providers, system integrators or hotspot venue operators to offer integrated solutions for rapid deployment, which can start a hotspot service quickly and easily offering enhanced service performance.

The HS960 is an ideal solution for hotel lobbies, coffee bars, airport lounges, conference facilities and other sites that commonly host business travelers, and offers instant high-speed Internet connections. With its IP Plug and Play technology the HS960 accepts any client conﬁguration login. When the client opens a browser window, the HS960 immediately recognises a new end-user and redirects their browser to customizable log in web page. There is no need for end users to change any of their default network (Static IP), e-mail (SMTP Server behind ﬁrewall), or browser settings (HTTP Proxy) or load any special software to access the hotspot service. The HS960 is completely Plug’ n Play with any browser.

This guide covers areas speciﬁc to administraton of the Wireless Gateway and will help in you in customising the device to suit your needs.

The HS960 Wireless Gateway allows you to change the look and feel of the login page that a subscriber will see when logging onto the Internet. You can decide what the welcome message is, if you want a logo on the page, or if you would like the web page split into two frames with the login ﬁelds in the bottom frame and a website of your choice in the top frame. You can even code your own login page or redirect the subscriber to a different website address.

Receipt:

Customise what is printed on the receipt issued to subscribers.

Billing:

You can decide how much to charge people to use the service, and customise a billing proﬁle for each button on the printer that comes with the HS960 Wireless Gateway. You can implement discounts based on button sequences on the printer. Decide how you would like your customers to pay for the service - before logging in, or once they have ﬁnished using the Internet.

Accounting:

Decide whether you would like to use the HS960 printer or a printer on your network to print account details.

Pass Through:

Allow certain machines to access the internet without having to enter a username and password. This is ideal for VIP members. You can also allow subscribers to access certain websites without having to enter a username and password by listing the website addresses under the Pass Through section.

Advertisements:

Advertise specials that your organisation may have, or charge companies to use the HS960 Wireless Gateway for advertisements. The adverts will be pop-ups that appear while a subscriber is surﬁng the Internet.

Filtering:

Decide which websites you want to restrict access to (e.g. competitors, X-rated sites, download sites).

An IP Registry provides a public central database where information such as email addresses, host names, IP addresses etc. can be stored and retrieved. This solves the problems if your DNS server uses an IP associated with dynamic IP addresses. When the ISP assigns the HS960 a new IP, the HS960 must inform the DDNS server the change of this IP so that the server can update its IP-to-DNS entry. Once the IP-to-DNS table in the DDNS server is updated, the DNS name for your web server (i.e., xyz.dyndns.org) is still usable.

Open System – Allows any device to authenticate and then attempt to communicate with the HS960 . Using open authentication, any wireless device can authenticate with the HS960, however the device can only communicate if its WEP key matches the HS960. Devices not using WEP do not attempt to authenticate with a Wireless Service Gateway that is using WEP.

Shared Key – During shared key authentication, the HS960 sends an unencrypted challenge text string to any device attempting to communicate with the HS960 . The device-requesting authentication encrypts the challenge text and sends it back to the HS960 . If the challenge text is encrypted correctly, the HS960 allows the requesting device to authenticate. Both the unencrypted challenge and the encrypted challenge can be monitored, however, which leaves the HS960 open to attack from an intruder who calculates the WEP key by comparing the unencrypted and encrypted text strings. Because of this weakness, shared key authentication can be less secure than open authentication.

Both – With this setting wireless stations can communicate with or without data encryption.
