1.3.2 Internet Access in Public Areas

In public areas, such as a hotel, the VSG provides high speed Internet access to subscribers. Account billing and authentication can be done either using an external RADIUS server or the built-in billing function and local subscriber database.

Connect an access point (AP) to bridge the wired and the wireless network allowing wireless stations to access the Internet through the VSG.
