Setting an Allow-Net
Note: When adding the OCS using the auth add web command an allow-net is
automatically configured for you. An OCS server will always be added as an
allow-net entry when you use an OCS authentication server. This allows the
SMS2000 to redirect subscribers to the server before authentication. Other
servers may also be required in your allow-net, such as www.authorize.net (for
credit card authentication) and/or the address of any portal page that you want to
present for Web authentication.
To allow subscribers to access a specific subnet before they are authenticated, use the
following command:
set allow-net {ip_address [netmask] | dns-name}
For example, if an Internet service provider placed a page for a hotel called “Central Park
Hotel” at the following URL:
http://www.notarealserver.com/CentralParkHotel/index.html
And this embedded remote content directly in the page:
<script language=“JavaScript”
src=“http://dynamic.notasyndicate.com/newsphoto/photo.js”>
With the following DNS entries:
www.notarealserver.com 192.168.1.1
dynamic.notasyndicate.com 192.168.254.254
The Internet service provider would then configure the SMS2000 as follows:
1. Set an allow-net for the first DNS server.
sms2000% set allow-net 192.168.1.1
or
sms2000% set allow-net notarealserver.com
2. Set an allow-net for the second DNS server.
sms2000% set allow-net 192.168.254.254
or
sms2000% set allow-net notasyndicate.com
3. Set the redirection URL.
sms2000% set authok
http://www.notarealserver.com/CentralParkHotel/index.html
Note: You can specify multiple allow-nets by entering the set allow-net
command for each allow-net.
