LABEL DESCRIPTION
Charge Mode (only
for Port-Location
Mapping enabled)
When you set up Port-Location Mapping, your VSG offers two billing modes:
Based on Room and Based on Subscriber.
Select Based on Room when location is important. If a subscriber disconnects
from one location and reconnects in another location, the VSG prompts for the
user name and password again.
Select Based on Subscriber to allow a subscriber to freely move between
different locations without prompting for user name and password.
Note: You must activate the port-location mapping feature. Refer
to Chapter 10, “Port-Location Mapping,” on page 103.
