21 If required, add modem MAC address privacy filters as described in 
Procedure 13-1 on page 13-3.
22 Connect a "visitor" PC to as many CPE modem ports as the installation 
schedule will allow (at least 10%). Test the system configuration by 
attempting to access the Internet/WAN and verifying the following:
• Verify that the appropriate authentication page appears for each 
port. That is, ports configured with the credit
 Port Use Context display the 
credit.vbn page, ports configured with the guest
 Port Use Context display 
the guest.vbn page, etc.
• Intentionally enter invalid authentication information, and verify 
that service is denied. This must be done before successful 
authentication, because once authenticated a visitor has access to the 
system until the billing period expires.
• After successfully authenticating, verify Internet/WAN access is 
successfully granted. That is, the visitor PC is able to access the 
Internet.
23 Continue with the YesWare provisioning process in Chapter 8, “YesWare 
service billing.”
