Configuring a Captive Portal

 

 

 

 

 

You may want to associate a VLAN, such as the GUEST VLAN, with a security zone so that you can configure appropriate security policies. For example, you can apply URL filtering policies to the zone to prevent access to certain types of websites.

A Captive Portal must be associated either with a single SSID or with a VLAN. If you want to enable a portal for users of multiple SSIDs, you will need to assign them all to the same VLAN. You can use a pre-configured VLAN or can create a VLAN for this purpose.

Wireless Setup

For a Captive Portal on the wireless network, you must enable the wireless radio and at least one SSID before you can enable a Captive Portal. To configure these settings, use the Wireless > Basic Settings page. .

Enable the wireless radio.

Enable the SSID(s) that you want to use for the portal.

If you created a special VLAN for use with your Captive Portal, assign it to the SSID(s) that you want to use for the portal.

User Authentication

If you want to require user authentication for your portal, the security appliance can authenticate the users by using the local database and an external AAA server (such as RADIUS, AD, and LDAP). The authentication method is derived from the user authentication settings that you specified in the Users > User Authentication page. See Configuring User Authentication Settings, page 393.

For the local database option, you need to set up a User Group with the Captive

Portal service enabled, and add the users’ names and passwords. .

Configuring a Captive Portal

You configure this feature separately for the wireless network (Wireless > Captive Portal ) and for the wired network (Networking > Captive Portal).
