6.2.4. Auto Proxy
Ramada requires “Plug and Play” for customers, so probably Auto-Proxy is required.
Customers configured to a common HTTP Proxy address will able to browse web pages.
Enable Auto-Proxy under Networks – System – Server – Auto-Proxy.
6.2.5. DHCP Server
DHCP is enabled by default. Configure according to your design under Networks –
Server – DHCP Server.
6.2.6. VPN Static IPs
You must provide additional routable static IP addresses for customers to establish VPN
connections. You or the hotel must purchase additional static IP addresses from the
ISP. Enable this feature under Advanced – VPN Static IPs. Please see the product
manual for full details on configuring this feature. ValuePoint does not have information
on how many static IP addresses are required for customers use. 5 to 10 is typical in
other deployments.
6.2.7. Client Isolation
Ramada requires that guests not be able to ping or access each others computer’s on
the network. This can be done in two ways:
1. Controller Subscriber VLAN: Enable Subscriber VLAN in the Controller under
Networks – System – Subscriber VLAN. In this configuration the Controller will block
any customer – customer traffic that it sees. However, the Controller may not ever see
this traffic on a switched LAN network or if two customers are on the same Access Point.
It should also be noted that a single ping may succeed between customers before the
Controller configures the Subscriber VLAN.
2. Access Point Subscriber VLAN: In order to block traffic on the other side of a switch
from the Controller, or on the same AP, it may be necessary to enable client isolation on
each Access Point. The ValuePoint SuperAP includes this feature.
A combination of #1 and #2 gives the best customer security.
6.2.8. Usage Throttling
In order to prevent one customer from monopolizing the network Ramada requires a limit
on each customer’s total bandwidth. Configure this on the Controller 3500 under
Networks – WAN/LAN – Subscriber Bandwidth Limitation. This feature is not
available on the Controller 3000. Contact Ramada for more information on what the
exact limit should be (128kbps, etc.)
6.2.9. Local Hardware Management by Hotel Personnel
Ramada requires the on site staff be able to monitor user activity, terminate users, and
create access accounts. You can create a Subscriber Manager account to do this that
