Multiple WAN ports and routing functions
AWG-9000 supports multiple Gigabit WAN ports with PPPoE/DHCP/Static IP configuration for each of
them. It supports multiple ISP connections with a load-balancing option. In centralized deployment mode, it
supports 1024 concurrent users. AWG-9000 supports Ethernet Superimpose, multiple ISP network
connections to avoid bandwidth overloading and Ethernet backup/fail-over to recover the dropped WAN
link to ensure a smooth running network. AWG-9000 supports a policy-based routing function where
administrators can configure the network based on IP/MAC/Domain/Interface policies.

Smart QoS
AWG-9000 supports smart QoS based on ports, individual users, user groups and user applications. It
allows bandwidth control and dispatch by tunnel or by application. AWG-9000 provides a variety of
functions including multiple queuing mechanisms (priority queuing, low latency queuing, custom
queuing, weighted queuing), congestion avoidance, traffic policing, traffic shaping and priority marking,
ensuring different service for different users and applications.

 Varied security mechanisms
AWG-9000 supports a variety of security mechanism, like TCP/UDP/ICMP Flooding,
IP/MAC/URL/Web filtering, Ping of Death and other related threats. It also extends protection to every
port of the controller and enable the ports to provide DoS/DDoS attack protection, traffic monitoring,
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) filtering, and application layer filtering. It also supports user
management and password protection. Users of different levels can be assigned with different
configuration authorities. Administrator can create blacklist and whitelist per SSID basis. Administrator
can redirect URL/domain to the desired destination. AWG-9000 supports IP-MAC binding for secure
access and can allow only MAC-bound terminals to access the internet.

 Multiple authentication options
AWG-9000 supports web page authentication, PPPoE authentication, IP and MAC authentication. Web
page authentication includes social media authentication and one-time password authentication. Users can
configure captive portal as per their requirement and can also display advertisements on client devices for
monetary purposes. Administrator can configure few special IP addresses as free authentication IP
addresses, which can bypass the authentication process and access the internet. AWG-9000 also works as
a PPPoE server, administrator can create PPPoE account, password, bandwidth and valid time, to realize
PPPoE billing function.

 Remote Maintenance and Auto firmware upgrade
Administrator can access into AWG-9000 management interface page remotely from any location, tomanage and maintain the wireless access points and WLAN network efficiently and conveniently.
AWG-9000 can automatically upgrade to the new released firmware version and easily recover the
system through importing and exporting configuration files. It also supports a scheduled reboot or power
off which can be configured as a timely regular task of a one-time temporary task.

 Access points management
Access points receive IP address from built-in DHCP Server which can assign the IP address for wireless
AP automatically when AP is connected to AWG-9000 controller in same network. Administrator can
assign a different IP pool in controller DHCP server for access points. AWG-9000 auto-detects the
wireless AP and supports configuration of single AP or an AP cluster. AWG-9000 can centrally manage
SSID password, mode, channel, RF power, coverage threshold and can reboot, reset or upgrade firmware
remotely for efficient maintenance.

Network features
AWG-9000 supports VPN dial up, DNS Proxy, IP address translation and user behavior management.
