Configuring Captive Portal Roles for an SSID
You can configure an access rule to enforce captive portal authentication for SSIDs that use 802.1X
authentication to authenticate clients. You can configure rules to provide access to external or internal captive
portal, so that some of the clients using this SSID can derive the captive portal role.
The following conditions apply to the 802.1X and captive portal authentication configuration:
l If a user role does not have captive portal settings configured, the captive portal settings configured for an
SSID are applied to the client's profile.
l If the SSID does not have captive portal settings configured, the captive portal settings configured for a user
role are applied to the client's profile.
l If captive portal settings are configured for both SSID and user role, the captive portal settings configured
for a user role are applied to the client's profile.
You can create a captive portal role for both Internal-acknowledged and External Authentication Text
splash page types.
To enforce the captive portal role, use the Instant UI or CLI.
In the Instant UI
To create a captive portal role:
1. Select an SSID profile from the Networks tab. The Edit <WLAN-Profile> window is displayed.
2. On the Access tab, slide to Role-based access control by using the scroll bar.
3. Select a role or create a new one if required.
4. Click New to add a new rule. The New Rule window is displayed.
5. In the New Rule window, specify the following parameters. The following figures show the parameters for
captive portal role configuration:
