Configuring captive portal roles for an SSID

You can configure an access rule to enforce captive portal authentication for SSIDs with 802.1X authentication enabled. You can configure rules to provide access to an external captive portal, internal captive portal, so that some of the clients using this SSID can derive the captive portal role.

The following conditions apply to the 802.1X and captive portal authentication configuration:

If captive portal settings are not configured for a user role, the captive portal settings configured for an SSID are applied to the client's profile.

If captive portal settings are not configured for a SSID, the captive portal settings configured for a user role are applied to the client's profile.

If captive portal settings are configured for both SSID and user role, the captive portal settings configured for a user role are applied to the profile of the client.

To create a captive portal role for both Internal-acknowledgedand External Authentication Text splash page types:

1.Select an SSID profile from Wireless Configuration > Networks, and click Edit.

2.Click ACCESS, select Role based, and select an existing role or create a new one.

3.Click (+). The ACCESS RULES FOR SELECTED ROLES data pane is displayed.

4.In ACCESS RULES FOR SELECTED ROLES, specify the following parameters.
