The following CLI and WebUI examples show a typical configuration of the Captive Portal profile. The login page is set to point directly to the hosted Web Login page.: http://10.169.130.50/Aruba_Login.php Captive Portal Profile Configuration aaa authentication captive-portal "guestnet" default-role auth-guest direct-pause 3 no logout-popup-window login-page http://10.169.130.50/Aruba_Login.php welcome-page http://10.169.130.50/Aruba_welcome.php switchip-in-redirection-url Figure 21 Captive Portal Profile Configuration An embedded URL within the portal configuration is designed to address the issue of bypassing the mini browser. This page is available at the following URL: http:///landing.php/ The Web page includes logic to detect the presence of an iOS device or Mac OS X Lion machine being redirected as part of the Aruba controller Captive Portal configuration. If these devices are detected, their initial request to the Apple Web site will be served locally from the ClearPass Guest server, emulating the environment of an Open connection to the Internet. By emulating the response from the Apple Web site, the iOS device or Mac OS X machine will no longer initiate the Captive Network Assistant and the user can launch their local browser manually as desired. Now that the devices are able to open the local browser, any subsequent attempt to access the Internet will be redirected to the ClearPass Guest server. This function will then differentiate between this Web browser request and the previous Captive Network Assistant request, and forward the session to the configured ClearPass Guest Web login page. Because ClearPass Guest can host multiple Web login pages, a simple method is provided to configure the Web login page that should be used. It does not require any additional configuration in ClearPass Guest. This definition of the Web login page can be specified as part of the Captive Portal profile configuration on the Aruba controller. ClearPass Guest 3.9 | Deployment Guide RADIUS Services | 139
