Residential Gateways

Advanced Features

Connect-and-Surf (Automatic Broadband Connection Configuration)

The

Connect-and-Surf

feature automatically establishes a WAN connection for default configured

gateways obviating the need for manual or custom configurations. The active physical layer is

detected (ADSL, VDSL or GigE) and layer 3 connectivity is established using PPP authentication or

DHCP.

NOTE

If you prefer to configure your SmartRG’s WAN interface manually, connect a laptop to

any of the LAN ports and follow the instructions in the

“

Logging in to Your SmartRG

™

Gateway

”

and

“

Use Case: Creating WAN Connections for Internet Access and Remote

Management

”

sections. Do NOT connect the WAN interface cable until after the

configuration is completed.

Activation (Automatic ACS Connection Configuration)

SmartRG gateways are designed to discover their service provider specific ACS management

settings without the use of custom firmware. SmartRG Inc. maintains an

activation server

that

associates a device’s MAC address with its service provider’s ACS settings. SmartRG gateways

contact the activation server to have their ACS settings modified upon initial power up (or after

being reset to factory default settings).

NOTE

Activation server support is provided for ALL SmartRG gateways at no additional cost.

SmartRG Inc. enters gateway MAC addresses into the activation server prior to

shipment.
