AG 5500Introduction 9Command Line InterfaceThe Command Line Interface (CLI) is a character-based user interface that can be accessedremotely or via a direct cable connection. Until your Nomadix product is up and running on thenetwork, the CLI is the Network Administrator’s window to the system. Software upgradescan only be performed from the CLI.See also:z “The Management Interfaces (CLI and Web)” on page 35.Dynamic Address Translation™Dynamic Address Translation (DAT) enables transparent broadband network connectivity,covering all types of IP configurations (static IP, DHCP, DNS), regardless of the platform orthe operating system used—ensuring that everyone gets access to the network without the needfor changes to their computer’s configuration settings or client-side software. The NSEsupports both PPTP and IPSec VPNs in a manner that is transparent to the user and thatprovides a more secure standard connection. See also, “Transparent Connectivity” on page 4.Dynamic Transparent ProxyThe NSE directs all HTTP and HTTPS proxy requests through an internal proxy which istransparent to subscribers (no need for users to perform any reconfiguration tasks). Uniquely,the NSE also supports clients that dynamically change their browser status from non-proxy toproxy, or vice versa. In addition, the NSE supports proxy ports 80, 800-900, 911 and 990 aswell as all unassigned ports (for example, ports above 1024), thus ensuring far fewer proxyrelated support calls than competitive products.End User Licensee CountThe NSE supports a range of simultaneous user counts depending on the Nomadix AccessGateway you choose. In addition, various user count upgrades are available for each of ourNSE-powered products that allow you to increase the simultaneous user count.
