set service-profile auth-fallthru 353

The fallthru method is a service profile parameter, and applies to all radios within the radio profiles that are mapped to the service profile.

Syntax — set service-profile name auth-fallthru {last-resort none web-portal}

„last-resort— Automatically authenticates the user and allows access to the SSID requested by the user, without requiring a username and password.

„none — Denies authentication and prohibits the user from accessing the SSID.

The authentication method none you can specify for administrative access is different from the fallthru authentication type none, which applies only to network access. The authentication method none allows access to the WX switch by an administrator. The fallthru authentication type none denies access to a network user. (See “set service-profileauth-fallthru” on page 352.)

„web-portal— Serves the user a web page from the WX switch’s nonvolatile storage for secure login to the network.

Defaults — The default fallthru authentication type is web-portal.

If a username does not match a userglob in an authentication rule for the SSID requested by the user, the WX switch that is managing the radio the user is connected to redirects the user to a web page located on the WX switch. The user must type a valid username and password on the web page to access the SSID.

Access — Enabled.

History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0. Option web-portalrenamed to web-portalin MSS Version 4.0.

Usage — The last-resortfallthru authentication type allows any user to access any SSID managed by the service profile. This method does not require the user to provide a username or password. Use the last-resortmethod only if none of the SSIDs managed by the service profile require secure access.
