ACCESS GATEWAY
Introduction 22
Walled Garden
The NSE provides up to 300 IP passthrough addresses (and/or DNS entries), allowing you to create a “Walled
Garden” within the Internet where unauthenticated users can be granted or denied access to sites of your
choosing.
Web Management Interface
Nomadix’ Access Gateways can be managed remotely via the built-in Web Management Interface where
various levels of administration can be established. See also Using the Web Management Interface (WMI)
on page 64.
Weighted Fair Queueing
Weighted Fair Queueing allocates bandwidth to individual users or groups in proportion to their individual or
group bandwidth limits. Weighted Fair Queueing provides a fall-back in an over-subscribed scenario.
Example Scenario
Your facility has a 150 Mbps internet connection. You have 100 subscribers with a basic plan with 1M
up/down bandwidth limits, and 100 subscribers with a premium plan with 2M up/ down speeds
At full capacity, your 200 subscribers will consume 300 Mbps. However, the total available bandwidth is only
150 Mbps.
When WFQ is ON, the premium subscribers will get a total bandwidth of 100 MB. And regular subscribers
will get a total bandwidth of 50MB only. The ratio of bandwidth utilization between the premium subscribers
and regular subscribers remains 2:1.
