Internet Subscriber Gateway

1 Introduction

The Internet Subscriber Gateway ISG-101 is deployed in a broadband service network for high-speed access the Internet. The Internet Subscriber Gateway can immediately recognize new users on the network (and remember returning users) and redirect their browser to a proprietary Web page. That is to say, user needn’t change their network configuration to access the Internet, just plug and play.

1-2 Precautions

 Never remove or open the cover. You may suffer serious injury if you touch these parts.  The ISG-101 is powered from 100/240 VAC. A standard IEC connector is used for the

power cable.

The product is a freestanding or rack-mounted unit with two Ethernet ports (WAN and LAN), a serial port for system management and administration. After the initial setup and network configuration is established, the product is easily managed by a network administrator through a Web management interface or the onboard serial port.

1-1 Feature

Plug and Play-Support All Network Configurations

The ISG-101 provides instant Internet access by using your own notebook PC without the hassle of configuration setting. This innovative sophisticated design enables instant Internet access wherever traveling may take you. Easy to use plug-and-play access to broadband networks.

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service

The Internet Subscriber Gateway supports RADIUS client. RADIUS enables ISPs to maintain a very large central database of users (potentially in the millions).

Proprietary Authentication Server

The Internet Subscriber Gateway provides proprietary authentication server which is allowed administer to control user’s login name and password.

Remote Configuration

The administrator can access this system by using web browsers such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. This system allows a remote user to view and/or modify system configuration via Internet.

Advertisement URL link

ISP could specify the advertisement URL link. The advertisement Web page will show on the browser when the subscribers start Network access.

Software Specifications

Address Translate Function

This function can accommodate all network configuration, including DHCP, DNS, proxies and dynamic and static IP address assignments. That is, whenever a subscriber login, the ISG-101 automatically translates their computer’s network settings to provide them with seamless access to the broadband network. Subscribers no longer need to alter their computer network configuration settings.

Email Redirection

The ISG-101 will rewrite subscriber’s original message of E-mail according to SMTP rules and sent it out via the specified Email server. This function could help subscribers to send E-mail via the local E-mail server when their default Email server is out of work.

DNS Redirection

The DNS Redirection function would provide local DNS server when subscriber’s configured DNS server is behind a firewall or located on a private intranet.

The ISG-101 enables solutions providers to redirect subscribers to a portal web site of their choice. This allows the solution provider to generate online advertising revenues and increase business exposure.

DHCP Function

The Internet Subscriber Gateway will follow RFC2131 that is designed to supply dynamic IP addresses.

RADIUS Client

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) Attribute Support reduces costs and improves services levels by enabling service providers to easily manage and maintain a very large central database of subscribers.

Internal User Account Management

The Internet Subscriber Gateway contains a user account database. And when the subscriber starts to access the Internet, the ISG-101 will send a Web page to ask checking user’s ID and password.

Virtual Server

Enables administrator to expose WWW, FTP and other services on your LAN to be accessible to Internet users under the NAT Network.

Support VPN (Virtual Private Network)

The ISG-101 can allow subscriber to create VPN networks using the Internet as the medium for transporting data.

Customize Subscriber Login in page

For different market, ISG-101 allow administrator to set customize login page for the subscribers. The advance pattern includes welcome notes, company logo, page color, article, comments and information items.
