CP Activation and Activity Status The CP Activation and Activity Status page contains the following fields: • CP Configuration - Select the CP configuration with the information to view. • Operational Status - Indicates whether the captive portal is enabled or disabled. • Disable Reason - If the captive portal is disabled, then this field indicates the reason. The portal instance may be disabled for the following reasons: - None - CP is enabled. - Administrator Disabled - RADIUS Authentication mode enabled, but RADIUS server is not defined. - Not associated with any interfaces. - The associated interfaces do not exist or do not support the CP capability. • Blocked Status - Indicates whether authentication attempts to the captive portal are currently blocked. Use the Block and Unblock buttons to control the blocked status. If the CP is blocked, users cannot gain access to the network through the CP. Use this function to temporarily protect the network during unexpected events, such as denial of service attacks. 210 Configuring System Information
