INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS GuestGate Hotspot Gateway. The GuestGate connects guests to your network, allowing them to access only the Internet (Web, Email, Chat and other applications). GuestGate protects your existing network from unauthorized access by the connected guest computers and, if required, even shields the guest computers among themselves. Furthermore GuestGate features enhanced IP PnP (Plug and Play) technology: It automatically adjusts to the guest computer's TCP/IP settings eliminating time consuming client IP reconfigurations.

GuestGate seamlessly integrates into your existing network and in many applications a configuration of GuestGate is not necessary. GuestGate provides the core functionality right out of the box.

Function Description

Internet Access for Guests

GuestGate is primarily designed to provide configuration-free Internet access for your guests. GuestGate uses the existing Internet connection of your network to provide Web and email access for computers connected in a conference room, a hotel or a public place with wireless network connectivity. GuestGate does not stop here, however. It addresses security-related concerns of the network administrator by shielding the existing network from access attempts from the connected guests. In short, this means that guests can access the Internet, but your own network — i.e., your network file server, email or application server — is off limits.

Password Protected Internet Access for Guests

The network administrator can make it mandatory for your guests to enter a password before Internet access is granted. This is an important function in case you offer Internet access as a paid service or in situations where an open, unprotected wireless access point is connected to GuestGate and you wish to keep unauthorized users from using your bandwidth.

Configurable Welcome Screen for your Guests

You can set up your own welcome screen in seconds. Change the wording and formatting, and upload your own banner image. The welcome screen is displayed when a guest connects to the Internet for the first time. The welcome screen can be utilized to make the guest agree to your terms and conditions, and can be completely deactivated if required.

IP PnP

In many situations, it is necessary for the network administrator to change the TCP/IP settings of guest computers because the existing settings are not compatible or your network has advanced requirements. GuestGate eliminates this step completely. GuestGate automatically adjusts to the guest computer's TCP/IP settings, providing a true zero guest configuration.

Bandwidth Control

GuestGate controls how much of your Internet connection speed is dedicated to the guest network. Upload and download bandwidth can be configured individually.

Layer 3 Client Isolation Function

In a public location with a public Wireless Access Point there are often concerns about security. GuestGate not only protects the Host Network from unauthorized access by your guests, it takes security one step further. When the “use separate random network for each client” option is activated, no guest computer can access any other guest computer. In this mode GuestGate randomly assigns each guest computer its own network. This option is activated by default.

Packet Filter

Block access to certain Web sites or entire IP ranges.

4 Port 10/100 Auto Sensing LAN Switch

GuestGate provides four 10/100 Mbps LAN switch ports for the connection of PCs, notebooks, or other switches or wireless access points.

Web-Based Administrator Interface

The configuration is fully Web-browser based. For security reasons, the Web administrator menu is only accessible from the host network.

Firmware Updates via Web Browser

Quickly and conveniently upgrade firmware of GuestGate with the Web browser of your choice.

Installation Examples

GuestGate Function Basics

Ports

GuestGate features a total of 5 10/100 RJ45 Ports. One port is for the connection of GuestGate to the Host Network (Host Port), 4 Ports are available for guest connections (Guest Ports). The Guest Ports can be connected to Hubs, Switches, Wireless Access Points, PCs or Notebooks.

Host Port

By default GuestGate obtains an IP Address from a DHCP Server already present in the network. GuestGate analyzes the network and obtains all information necessary for Internet Access. The DHCP Server Log reveals the HOST IP Address of GuestGate.

In the event that no DHCP Server is present GuestGate reverts to its default IP Address 192.168.2.1. In this case a manual configuration of the HOST IP settings is necessary.

Guest Ports

GuestGate assigns IP addresses to the connected guest computers. IP PnP technology ensures that no configuration on the guest computer is necessary. The default IP address range is 172.16.xxx. Changing the guest IP settings is possible via the Web administration interface.

Guest Ports with Layer 3 Client Isolation enabled

If the Layer 3 Client Isolation is enabled, GuestGate assigns a different IP Network (Subnet) to each connected Guest Computer. Since this assignment is random, it makes it virtually impossible for a hacker to guess the other guest computer's IP settings to try to gain access. This option is enabled by default. It can be disabled in the guest configuration screen of the administrator Web interface. The option is “separate network for each client (automatic).”

Time / Scheduler

You can configure the time period, in which GuestGate allows Internet access. Possible values are always on or based on a schedule (week day and time).

Accessing the Administrator Web Interface

The configuration of GuestGate is entirely Web-based. Any standard Web browser is supported. For security reasons, GuestGate can only be configured from the host port. GuestGate rejects all connection attempts which originate from the guest side.

Internet Access for Guests and Welcome Page

When a guest computer tries to access the Internet for the first time, a Welcome Page is being shown in the Web browser. This welcome page can be configured and altered in the Administrator Web Interface. Guests have to accept the terms and conditions in order to access the Internet. If the Guest Password option is enabled, a password must be provided by the guest to gain Internet access.

This authorization procedure is only required once. GuestGate memorizes all authorized Guest computers until GuestGate is restarted.

After a restart of GuestGate, guests again will be shown the welcome page. If a guest computer is disconnected from GuestGate for more than 10 minutes, the welcome page is also shown again.

INSTALLATION of GuestGate

This setup method assumes that a DHCP Server such as a router is present in your network.

1. Connection to the Host Network

Connect standard RJ45 Network Cable to GuestGate's HOST Port and to a RJ45 port on your existing network (Ethernet Switch Port, Router Switch Port, etc.).

Turn on GuestGate and verify that the network connection is active (HOST LED must be lit on GuestGate).

NOTE: The startup process takes up to 60 seconds (if no DHCP Server is present it may take as long as 300 seconds).

2. Connection of Guests

Using standard RJ45 Network Cable you can now connect PCs, Notebooks, Ethernet Switches, Hubs or Wireless Access Points to the Guest Ports of GuestGate.

Each Port has its own Status LED. Verify that the network connection is active on each port you connect.

Advanced Setup

The standard installation of GuestGate bases on the assumption that a DHCP Server is present in your network. If this is not the case, you can still configure GuestGate manually. To do this you need to turn GuestGate on while it is disconnected from the network. If no DHCP Server can be found after 3 minutes, GuestGate will fall back to its default IP Address of 192.168.2.1.

Advanced setup requires:

  • A network adapter correctly installed in your computer;
  • User rights that allow manual configuration of TCP/IP-related settings on your PC; and
  • GuestGate connected with an RJ-45 cable to the network adapter in your PC.

3. Access Control: Welcome Screen

Welcome Screen

Enable or disable the welcome page for guests. (Default = enabled.) If this parameter is set to "disabled", all guest users can access the Internet freely. No welcome page is displayed, even if a guest password is defined below.

Guest Password

If you require your guests to enter a password to access the Internet, you can define it here. If left empty, no password is required (default = no password). This is the global password that can be used by any guest; it is not an individual user password. The password option is only active, if the Welcome Screen is set to “enabled” (see above).

4. Access Control: Welcome Passwords

Set up individual user passwords that are only valid for a certain time period and can be used by a defined number of computers simultaneously. The example below shows a password “test” that is valid from “03/12/2009, 12 pm” until “03/13/2009, 6 pm”. The password can be used by five users simultaneously.

This page shows the configuration options for the Host Interface of GuestGate.

1. Configuration Host

Option "dhcp"

GuestGate automatically receives the IP address, netmask, gateway and DdNS server information from the DdHCP server in your network, typically a router.

Option "static"

In larger networks, a manual configuration of the IP settings may be necessary. Select "static" and enter the IP address, netmask, gateway IP address and DNS server IP addresses manually. Multiple DNS Servers can be entered by separating them with a space, i.E. 111.222.333.444 999.888.777.666.

Administrator IP Address:

Restrict access to GuestGate's administration menu to the IP address you enter in this field. This can be any local or public IP address.

2. Packet filter

Blocked Addresses

If you which to block certain IP Addresses, Domain Names or an entire network you can enter this here. “Add Host Address” is used to enter domain names such as guestgate.com or intellinet-network.com.

Enter the domain name and click on "Add Host". Repeat the steps to block additional domains.

Blocked Addresses:thepiratebay.orgRemove
Add Host Address:mininova.orgAdd Host

"Add Network Address" is used to enter an IP Address. To specify the range you can select the appropriate network mask from the drop down list. If you wish to delete a blocked address, select it from the drop-down list and click "Remove".

Blocked Ports

This option lets you specify which outgoing TCP/IP Ports you wish to block. Enter the port number and click on "Add Port". GuestGate blocks both TCP and UDP protocols. A list of common service ports can be found in chapter -> APPENDIX at the end of the document. If you wish to remove a port simply select the desired port from the drop down list and click on "Remove".

Note: You can only add and remove single ports. Port ranges are not supported.

Permitted Addresses

By default GuestGate blocks access to all PCs in the Host network. This function lets you define exceptions.

Add Host Address: Enter a single IP Address, e.g. the IP address of your Intranet Web server and click on "Add Host". Repeat this step if you wish to enter more IP addresses.

Permitted Addresses:192.168.2.50Remove
Add Host Address:192.168.2.51Add Host

The example above shows that access to IP addresses 192.168.2.50 is allowed. IP address 192.168.2.51 will be allowed as soon as "Add Host" is clicked.

Add Network Address: Enter an IP address and a subnet mask to define a range of IP addresses permitted to your guests. For example, if you wish to allow access to the entire host network, you can do that by quickly by using this function.

Permitted Addresses:Remove
Add Host Address:Add Host
Add Network Address:192.168.2.1/ 255.255.255.0 Add Network

The example above shows how to allow access to the entire network range from 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.2.254.

Walled Garden Addresses

You can grant an unauthenticated user limited access to Web sites, both external and internal, using the Walled Garden function. In a scenario, where a password is required in order to access the Internet, a guest normally would not be able to access any web site. Any attempt of doing so would result in the display of the welcome page with the request to enter a valid password – as shown below:

Intellinet 523240 - Walled Garden Addresses - 1

By continuing you agree to those terms. Copyright © INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS 2009 - www.guestgate.com

This page shows the Welcome Screen configuration options of GuestGate.

1. Redirect first request to URL:

When a guest connects to GuestGate for the first time, GuestGate can redirect the guest to a web page you want them to see, e.g., a page displaying special offers or advertising. The redirect URL is entered without HTTP://.

Example: www.guestgate.com

GuestGate redirects any guest to the GuestGate web page.

2. Mode to customize welcome page:

There are two values to choose from: "simple" and "advanced". In simple mode you can change the welcome text and replace the default banner graphic, in advanced mode you have access to the entire HTML source code of the welcome page. Once you enable the advanced mode, an additional text box appears on the bottom of the page (see below: "Welcome HTML Code")

3. Banner Graphic

You can replace the default Banner Image with your own image such as the Logo of your company. Click on Browser to select the file you wish to upload. Click on "Upload" to replace the default banner image. After the upload the text "Default Image" changes into "Custom Image".

Note:

The banner image file type must be either JPG, GIF or PNG.

The banner image size must not exceed 60 Kb.

The banner image dimension is not limited, but the width should ideally not exceed 1024 pixel.

The banner image only displays on the guest welcome screen. It does not replace the banner in the administrator Web interface.

4. Welcome Text

You can overwrite the default text with your own custom text. GuestGate supports HTML tags to format your text. Below is a small selection:

<strong>bold text</strong>
<font color = red>red text</font>
<font color = #00ff00">green text</font>
<u>underlined text</u>
<u><strong><font color = red>red bold underlined text</font></strong></u> 

Other HTML commands such as

Intellinet 523240 - Welcome Text - 1 tags and many more are also supported.

5. Welcome HTML Code

When you enable the advanced mode, a new text box will appear. This function is designed for advanced users with knowledge about HTML programming. We don't recommend using this function, unless you know what you are doing.

4. Firmware

Refer to the next section "Firmware Upgrade Process".

Firmware Upgrade Process

Where to obtain a new firmware

There are two ways to find out of a new firmware is available.

a) Check Guest Gate's Status Page

Guest Gate checks if a new firmware is available when you login to the Administrator menu. If a new version is found, a test message appears on the status screen.

See example below:

Device Status Information

New firmware version available (Version: 1.42, Date: 2006/09/28) Click here for more information.

Click on the link "Click here for more information" and you are being taken to the web page that includes information about the new firmware.

b) Check the download section on http://www.guestgate.com manually.

Upgrade Process:

Open the Device Settings screen of the Administrator menu.

Click on "Browse" to select the new firmware Image, e.g., "523240-1.22.img".

Click on "Install" to begin the upgrade process.

The Upgrade may take several minutes depending on your connection speed to GuestGate.

Intellinet 523240 - Firmware Upgrade Process - 1

text_image INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS Bioscience Networks Tools Firmware is being upgraded The firmware is being upgraded at the moment. After the upgrade is complete, the device will restart automatically. Please be patient and do not restart the device before the upgrade is complete as this will destroy the device permanently!

GuestGate will automatically restart after the upgrade process. After you see the restart message you need to wait one minute before you can access GuestGate again.

Note:

The Upgrade Process must not be interrupted!

A network connection failure or a crash of your local computer during the upgrade process will result in the destruction of GuestGate.

Ideally you want to perform the upgrade from within the local Host Network whenever possible. Device failures resulting from improperly performed firmware upgrades are excluded from the product warranty.

This page lets you save the new configuration.

[x] Save Settings

All changes you made to the configuration will only be memorized if you save the changes by activating this check box.

If you made changes in some of the configuration screens and fail to perform this step before closing the Web browser, all changes will get lost.

[x] Reboot Device

In order to activate the new configuration you must also check this box.

Note:

Saving the settings does not automatically activate them. It is necessary to reboot GuestGate for the new configuration to become active.

This way you can make changes to the configuration (i.e. a new Guest Password) now and activate them at a later time.

Rebooting GuestGate will also enforce a re-authentication of all connected guest computers.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

  1. Q: What is the default IP Address of GuestGate?

A: The default IP address is: 192.168.2.1

  1. Q: What is the default administrator password of GuestGate?

A: The default password is: 1234

  1. Q: How do I reset GuestGate to the factory default state?

A: Press the reset button on the rear for 5 seconds while GuestGate is up and running.

  1. Q: I have changed some settings in the administrator Web interface, but the changes show no effect. Why?

A: You may have forgotten to save the configuration through the EXIT page of the administrator Web interface.

  1. Q: I have a server in my network which my guests are not allowed to access. Which settings do I need to activate in GuestGate to prevent my guests from accessing this server?

A: You do not need to activate any settings. GuestGate provides this functionality by default. Should a guest try to access a server or computer in your network GuestGate will deny the request displaying a warning message in the guest's Web browser window.

  1. Q: What if I want to allow my guests access to my network, i.e. my Intranet Web server?

A: Add the IP address of your Intranet server in GuestGate's Host configuration page under 'Permit Addresses' and GuestGate will no longer block access to that server.

  1. Q: Can I control the amount of bandwidth available for my guest network?

A: Yes. Upload and download bandwidth can be controlled in the guest configuration of the Administrator Web interface.

  1. Q: I wish to display my own welcome page for my guests. Can I change the default welcome page?

A: Yes. The welcome page can be changed in administrator Web interface. You can change the welcome message and upload your own banner image. In advanced mode you have access to the complete HTML source code allowing you to change the appearance of the welcome page completely.

  1. Q: Can I use HTML Code in my custom welcome page?

A: Yes. GuestGate does not limit you in any way. If you are a HTML Web developer you can create an enhanced welcome page simply by pasting the HTML code into the welcome page configuration field. In advanced mode you have access to the complete HTML source code.

  1. Q: I have made edits to the welcome page in advanced mode and now the welcome page does not work correctly anymore. How do I restore the default welcome page?

A: Open the welcome page configuration page and make sure the "Mode to customize welcome page" is set to "advanced". Scroll down to the text box labeled "Welcome HTML Code" and click the button "Reset to default". Save the configuration via the Exit page to activate the default welcome page.

  1. Q: Does GuestGate support PHP, ASP or Perl?

A: No. GuestGate does not support server-side scripting.

  1. Q: What is the option "separate network for each client (automatic)" in the Guest Configuration Screen used for?

A: This is the Layer 3 Client Isolation function of GuestGate. If this option is activated GuestGate will prevent the connected guest computers from accessing each other by assigning random TCP/IP network settings to the guest computers.

This way each Guest operates in its own “Virtual LAN”. The two examples below illustrate how it works:

  1. Guest configuration set to "same network for all clients (automatic)"

Guest computer 1 receives IP address 172.16.254.253.

Guest computer 2 receives IP address 172.16.254.252.

Guest computer 3 receives IP address 172.16.254.251.

[...]

In this mode all guest computers operate in one network and are therefore able to access each other. This is the standard mode of virtually any router and DHCP server on the market.

  1. Guest configuration set to "separate network for each client (automatic)"

Guest computer 1 receives IP address 192.168.17.42.

Guest computer 2 receives IP address 172.16.25.12.

Guest computer 3 receives IP address 10.10.8.178.

Guest computer 4 receives IP address 10.10.4.18.

Guest computer 5 receives IP address 192.168.8.178.

[...]

In this mode each guest computer operates in its own network and therefore can not access any other device except for the Internet. Since this function is random it is next to impossible for an attacker to know or guess which IP addresses the other guests have been assigned making a hacking attempt more difficult.

If you are concerned with the security of your guests or are worried about potential liability issues you should activate this option (it is activated by default).

  1. Q: How often does a guest need to authenticate at the welcome page?

A: Only once. As long as GuestGate is not restarted and the guest remains connected to GuestGate, the guest will never again be prompted to enter the password and agree to your terms and conditions. If the guest disconnects from GuestGate for a period of 10 minutes or more, the welcome page will be displayed again the next time the guest tries to access the Internet.

  1. Q: Some of my guests wish to play a network game, or share files and folders. But that does not work. How come that the connected guest computers cannot communicate with each other?

A: That is because by default Layer 3 Client Isolation is activated. You need to disable it to allow network communication between the connected guest computers. See question 12.

  1. Q: Can I access the administrator menu of GuestGate from one of the guest ports?

A: No. For security reasons this is not possible. Access to the administrator menu can only be gained through the host port.

  1. Q: Can I access any guest computer from the host network?

A: No. Opening ports to connected computer, as you can do with any standard router (virtual server / port forwarding), is not possible with GuestGate for security reasons.

  1. Q: Can I open ports in GuestGate to allow access to a connected guest computer?

A: No, that is not possible. See the previous question.

  1. Q: On the status page of the Web administration interface the time is displayed as "(not available)", why?

A: GuestGate cannot access the pool time servers on the Internet and is therefore unable to receive a valid system time. The most likely cause for this problem is that a Firewall located in the Host network may be blocking outgoing Network Time Protocol (NTP) requests. The system administrator must open the ports required for this service (port 123 for both TCP and UDP).

It is important to take care of this problem, especially if you use the “Time / Scheduler” function to control, when Internet access is allowed.

  1. Q: Does the bandwidth control limit the bandwidth per computer, or does it limit the bandwidth GuestGate can consume in total?

A: The bandwidth control limits to bandwidth that GuestGate can use, regardless of how many guest users are connected to the device.
