Hotspot gateway, Uest
Provide guests with instant Internet access
while keeping your network secure.
Now you can easily accommodate guests in your offices, such as consultants, auditors, professional
service providers, manufacturing representatives and clients, without burdening your IT administrator with
last-minute LAN configuration requests. Simply install the INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS
™
GuestGate
™
HotSpot Gateway, and your visitors will be able to access the Internet from your conference
room, offices or other accommodations in your facility, without compromising the security of your network.
Easy Access, Installation & Configuration
Using GUESTGATE, there is no longer a need for your visitors to “reconfigure” their notebook computers in order to access
the Internet through your network – simply log in using the company-provided username and password. Nor is it necessary for
your IP administrator to “reconfigure” your network every time you have a guest visit. GuestGate automatically adjusts to the guest
computer’s TCP/IP settings, making it a snap for your IT organization to accommodate your guests who need to access the
Internet. It also detects the host network’s setting, and in most cases automatically configures the Internet access!
Protect Your Private Network
Using the INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS proprietary HNP Technology
™
(Host Network Protection), GuestGate prevents
clients from seeing the host network while at the same time allowing them access to the public Internet. Special privileges,
such as access to specific servers and printers, can easily be configured as needed while still providing host network
protection. For added protection to your network, you can choose to assign your visitor a password and require it for access
to the Internet. You can even limit the amount of bandwidth allowed to the guests, further ensuring that your network is not
impacted by your additional users.
Protect Your Guests’ Computers
Your visitors can rest assured that the security of their notebook computers will not be compromised by other “strangers”;
i.e., other guests you may have visiting and accessing your network at the same time. This innovative device protects
your GuestGate users by assigning different random networks to each client. This unique “client isolation” capability is
provided through Layer 3 Virtual LAN technology, and ensures that no connection between guest computers can be
established (even if they are connected via a wireless access point). And as if that were not enough, GuestGate also
protects the guest computers from unauthorized access through the Internet, helping to prevent their computer from
being attacked while connected to the Internet through your LAN.
Provide a Professional Environment
GuestGate allows you to provide your own company welcome screen for your guests. Use the welcome screen
feature to define terms and conditions, requiring your guests to agree before they proceed. This feature is
optional and can be completely deactivated, if preferred.
Lifetime Warranty
Strict manufacturing standards ensure the highest quality in all INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS
products. All items carry a full Lifetime Warranty — the strongest quality commitment anyone can make.
