Web Client Configuration with Proxy Script

If the web client proxy configuration is distributed through a proxy script (a .pac file), you need to configure the captiveportal policy to allow the client to download the file. Note that in order modify the captiveportal policy, you must have the PEFNG license installed in the controller.

To allow clients to download proxy script via the WebUI:

1.Edit the captiveportal policy by navigating to the Configuration > Security > Access Control > Policies page.

2.Add a new rule with the following values: n Source is user

n Destination is host

n Host IP is the IP address of the proxy server n Service is svc-https or svc-http

n Action is permit

3.Click Add to add the rule. Use the up arrows to move this rule above the rules that perform destination NAT.

4.Click Apply.

To allow clients to download proxy script via the command-line interface, access the CLI in config mode and issue the following commands:

(host)(config) #ip access-list session captiveportal user alias mswitch svc-https permit

user any tcp port dst-nat 8088 user host ipaddr svc-https permit user any svc-http dst-nat 8080 user any svc-https dst-nat 8081

Personalizing the Captive Portal Page

The following can be personalized on the default captive portal page:

Captive portal background

Page text

Acceptance Use Policy

The background image and text should be visible to users with a browser window on a 1024 by 768 pixel screen. The background should not clash if viewed on a much larger monitor. A good option is to have the background image at 800 by 600 pixels, and set the background color to be compatible. The maximum image size for the background can be around 960 by 720 pixels, as long as the image can be cropped at the bottom and right edges. Leave space on the left side for the login box.

You can create your own web pages and install them in the controller for use with captive portal. See “Internal Captive Portal” on page 265

1.Navigate to the Configuration > Management > Captive Portal > Customize Login Page page.

You can choose one of three page designs. To select an existing design, click the first or the second page design present.
