Configuring Internal Captive Portal for Guest Network For internal captive portal authentication, an internal server is used for hosting the captive portal service. You can configure internal captive portal authentication when adding or editing a guest network created for wireless or wired profile through the Instant UI or CLI. In the Instant UI 1. Navigate to the WLAN wizard or Wired window. l To configure internal captive portal authentication for a WLAN SSID, in the Network tab, click New to create a new network profile or edit to modify an existing profile. l To configure internal captive portal authentication for a wired profile, click More>Wired. In the Wired window, click New under Wired Networks to create a new network, or click Edit to select an existing profile. 2. Click the Security tab and assign values for the configuration parameters: Table 25: Internal Captive Portal Configuration Parameters Parameter Description Splash page type Select any of the following from the drop-down list. l Internal - Authenticated-When Internal Authenticated is enabled, the guest users are required to authenticate in the captive portal page to access the Internet. The guest users who are required to authenticate must already be added to the user database. l Internal - Acknowledged- When Internal Acknowledged is enabled, the guest users are required to accept the terms and conditions to access the Internet. MAC authentication Select Enabled from the drop-down list to enable the MAC authentication. Delimiter character Specify a character ( for example, colon or dash) as a delimiter for the MAC address string. When configured, the W-IAP will use the delimiter in the MAC authentication request. For example, if you specify the colon as a delimiter, MAC addresses in the xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx format are used. If the delimiter is not specified, the MAC address in the xxxxxxxxxxxx format is used. NOTE: This option is available only when MAC authentication is enabled. Uppercase support Set to Enabled to allow the W-IAP to use uppercase letters in MAC address string for MAC authentication. NOTE: This option is available only if MAC authentication is enabled. WISPr (Applicable for WLAN SSIDs only.) Select Enabled if you want to enable WISPr authentication. For more information on WISPr authentication, see Configuring WISPr Authentication on page 182. NOTE: The WISPr authentication is applicable only for InternalAuthenticated splash pages and is not applicable for wired profiles.
