Avoid visiting V-NET using a browser in private browsing mode. This is because a browser window in privae browsing mode can create many transient endpoints when it visits V-NET. They will consume the available endpoint resources of an account that could not be reused for no good reason.

An account is the basic unit of V-NET that connects different endpoint together. Therefore an user must create at least one account before using V-NET. A user can create multiple accounts for different purposes.

To register an account, the user should provide one of the valid e-mail addresses that he/she owns plus an optional postfix starting with "#" as the username and a sufficiently strong password. A user can use the postfix part of the username to register multiple accounts with just one email address. The registered email box will be used as one of the communication and authentication channels to get support regarding the current account is needed from V-NET. There is also a "Endpoint" field for a proper name of the current endpoint. The system provides an auto generated one that can be used for first-time users. It can be changed easily once the registration is done and the user is logged into the system.

It is important for an endpoint to have a proper name in an account that contains many inter-connecting endpoints, especially, when the endpoint is to be disclosed and allowed to exchange data with the same inside other accounts of other peers. An endpoint is easier to identify when it has a distinguishable name under such an application context. It is the responsibility of the user to name their endpoints properly.

Figure: The login page.

An endpoint joins an account network once it is used to login that account. The names of associated networks of an endpoint is listed under the "Associated Networks" list of the login page. Clicking a unselected network will select it for login and clicking an selected network will deselect it, allowing a user to join new networks.
