Enabling AAA Services with the Internal Web Server
You are here because you want to enable the AAA Services with the Access Gateway’s Internal
Web Server. The Access Gateway maintains an internal database of authorized subscribers,
based on their MAC (hardware address) and user name (if enabled). By referring to its database
record, also known as an authorization table, the Access Gateway instantly recognizes new
subscribers on the network.
You can configure the Access Gateway to handle new subscribers in various ways (see the
table on this page). With the IWS, you also have the option of enabling SSL support.
After selecting the Internal Web Server authorization mode, you have the option of enabling or
disabling the Usernames and New Subscribers features. These features work in conjunction
with each other to determine how new subscribers are handled. Refer to the following table:
