least one local user account in order to verify the
system‘s readiness upon completion of this Setup
Wizard.
•Enter the Username (e.g. “testuser) and
Password (e.g. “testuser”) to create a new
local account.

< User Login >
To verify whether the configuration of the new local
user account(s) created via the Setup Wizard has
been completed successfully:
1. Connect a client device (e.g. laptop, PC) to any
LAN Port of HSG3200. The device will obtain
an IP address automatically via DHCP.
2. Open a web browser on a client device, access
any URL, and then the default User Login
Page will appear.
3. Enter the Username and Password of a local
user account previously generated via Setup
Wizard (e.g. “testuser@local” as the
Username and “testuser” as the Password);
then Click Login.
Note:
1. HSG3200 supports multiple authentication
options including built-in local user database
and external authentication database (e.g.
RADIUS). The system will automatically
identify which authentication option is used
from the full username entered.
2. The format of a full (valid) username is
userid@postfix, where “userid” is the user
ID and “postfix” is the name of the selected
authentication option.
3. Exception: The postfix can be omitted only
when the default authentication option is
used. For example, “LOCAL” is the default
authentication option at this system;
therefore, you may enter either “testuser”or
“testuser@local” in the Username field.
Congratulation!
The Login Success Page will appear after a client
has successfully logged into HSG3200 and has
been authenticated by the system.
The appearance of Login Success Page means
that HSG3200 has been installed and configured
properly.

< Small and Mid-size Business Network Environment >
In a Small and Mid-size Business (SMB) network environment, devices such as switches, hubs, and access points
are commonly used, and Internet connection is usually via anADSL or a cable modem. HSG3200 uses virtual LAN
(VLAN) technology to partition one physical network under its control into nine logical virtual networks, called
Service Zones, including one untagged zone and eight tagged zones. The untagged zone is also referred as the
Default Service Zone in this system, which is always enabled. On the other hand, the other four tagged zones can
be enabled or disabled respectively. By default, port-based configuration is used and all of the four physical LAN
ports are set to use the Default Service Zone.
The figure below demonstrates an example of the SMB network deployed with HSG3200.
