VSG-1000 Vantage Service Gateway 
IP and MAC Address Pass Through 
10-1 
This chapter shows you how to configure IP and MAC address pass through.  
10.1 Configuring IP and MAC Address Pass Through 
You can set the VSG to allow the forwarding of packets from a specified LAN device, such as a file server or 
computer, without prompting for a user name and password. You can specify up to 40 IP addresses and 10 MAC 
addresses of LAN devices allowed to pass through the VSG. For example, in an airport VIP room, you can specify 
the IP or MAC addresses of computers that subscribers can use without logging in.  
From the Main Menu screen, click ConfigurePass Through IP & MAC. A screen displays as shown.
