CLI commands

This option enables users to access the wireless network without reconfiguring their networking settings. For example, by default the service controller creates the wireless network on the subnet 192.168.1.0. If a client station is pre-configured with the address 10.10.4.99, it will still be able to connect to the service controller without changing its address, or its settings for DNS server and default gateway.

station free access

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl

station free access

When enabled, all users are automatically granted access when the RADIUS server is down or unreachable.

no station free access

Users cannot connect when the RADIUS server is unreachable.

Once the RADIUS server is available again, free user sessions remain active until the user logs out. This does not apply to users using 802.1x or WPA.

station http proxy support

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl

station http proxy support

Enables support for client stations that are configured to use a proxy server for HTTP and HTTPS, without requiring users to reconfigure their systems.

no station http proxy support

Disables support for client stations that are configured to use a proxy server for HTTP and

HTTPS.

station idle detection

Supported on: MSM710 MSM730 MSM750 MSM760 MSM765zl

station Idle detection <interval> <count>

The service controller continuously polls authenticated client stations to ensure they are active. If no response is received and the number of retries is reached, the client station is disconnected.

Parameters

<interval>

Specify how long to wait between polls.

<retries>

Specify how many polls a client station can fail to reply to before it is

 

disconnected.

Description

This feature enables the service controller to detect if two client stations are using the same IP address but have different MAC addresses. If this occurs, access is terminated for this IP address removing both stations from the network.

Changing these values may have security implications. A large interval provides a greater opportunity for a session to be hijacked.

The initial query is always done after the client station has been idle for 60 seconds. If there is no answer to this query, the settings for Interval and Retries are used to control additional retries.
