ACCESS GATEWAY
60 System Administration
Some subscribers may want additional account flexibility and security for their services
(for example, if they use more than one computer and their MAC address changes, or if
they move between port-locations). In this case, a subscriber can define a unique user
name and password which they can use from any machine or location (without being re-
charged). Subscribers who choose this option are prompted for their user name and
password whenever they try to access the Internet. Solution providers can charge a fee for
this service.
6. Enable or disable the New Subscribers feature (refer to the table in “Enabling AAA
Services with the Internal Web Server” on page 58).
7. If you enabled New Subscribers, enable or disable the Relogin After Timeout option.
8. You can now enable or disable the Credit Card Service. When this feature is enabled,
subscribers are prompted for their credit card information (for billing purposes). The
Access Gateway is configured to use either Authorize.net or Chainfusion (selected from a
pull-down menu). You will need to open a merchant account with Authorize.net,
Chainfusion or Datacenter (Luxembourg) before this feature can be used.
Please contact Nomadix Technical Support for assistance. Refer to “Contact Information”
on page 297.
9. If you enabled the Credit Card Service, define which service you require (Authorize.net
or
Chainfusion) from the pull-down menu.
10. If the Credit Card Service is enabled, enter the information for the following fields:
Credit Card Server URL
Credit Card Server IP
Merchant ID (a valid ID issued by the credit card reconciliation service provider –
Authorize.net or Chainfusion).
11. Check the Use NSE’s Hostname and DNS domain name box if you want the Hostname
and domain name to be sent to the Credit Card server instead of the local NSE IP address.
New Subscribers must be enabled before enabling the Credit Card and PMS
options.
All data communications between the Access Gateway and the credit card server
are encrypted by the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol. The Access Gateway
never “sees” subscriber credit card numbers.
DNS must be configured if you want to enter meaningful URLs instead of numeric
IP addresses into any of the Access Gateway’s configuration screens (for
example, the Credit Card Server URL in the following step).
