EXAMPLE 3: PROVIDING GUEST ACCESS
Captive Web Portal with Internal DHCP and DNS Servers
With this approach, when the client of a previously unregistered visitor first associates with the guest SSID, the
HiveAP acts as a DHCP server, DNS server, and web server, limiting the client’s network access to just the HiveAP
with which it associated. No matter what website the visitor tries to reach, the HiveAP directs the browser to a
registration page. After the visitor registers, the HiveAP stores the client’s MAC address as a registered user and
stops keeping the station captive; that is, the HiveAP no longer acts as a DHCP, DNS, and web server for traffic from
that MAC address, but allows the client to access external servers. The entire process is shown in Figure10.
