Configuring a Network Authentication Profile
You can configure a network authentication profile to define the authentication type used by the hotspot
network. To configure a network authentication profile, enter the following commands at the command
prompt:
(Instant AP)(config)# hotspot anqp-nwk-auth-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(network-auth <name>)# nwk-auth-type <type>
(Instant AP)(network-auth <name>)# url <URL>
(Instant AP)(network-auth <name>)# enable
(Instant AP)(network-auth <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
You can specify any of the following network authentication type for the nwk-auth-type <type> command:
l accept-term-and-cond—When configured, the network requires the user to accept terms and conditions.
This option requires you to specify a redirection URL string as an IP address, FQDN or URL.
l online-enrollment—When configured, the network supports the online enrollment.
l http-redirect—When configured, additional information on the network is provided through HTTP/HTTPS
redirection.
l dns-redirect—When configured, additional information on the network is provided through DNS
redirection. This option requires you to specify a redirection URL string as an IP address, FQDN, or URL.
Configuring a Roaming Consortium Profile
You can configure a roaming consortium profile to send the roaming consortium information as an ANQP IE in
a GAS query response. To configure a roaming consortium profile, enter the following commands at the
command prompt:
(Instant AP)(config)# hotspot anqp-roam-cons-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(roaming-consortium <name>)# roam-cons-oi <roam-cons-oi>
(Instant AP)(roaming-consortium <name>)# roam-cons-oi-len <roam-cons-oi-len>
(Instant AP)(roaming-consortium <name>)# enable
(Instant AP)(roaming-consortium <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
Specify a hexadecimal string of 3 to 5 octets for roam-cons-oi <roam-cons-oi>.
Based on the OI specified, you can specify the following parameters for the length of OI in roam-cons-oi-len
<roam-cons-oi-len>.
l For 0: 0 Octets in the OI (Null)
l For 3: OI length is 24-bit (3 Octets)
l For 5: OI length is 36-bit (5 Octets)
Configuring a 3GPP Profile
You can configure a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) profile to define information for the 3G Cellular
Network for hotspots.
To configure a 3GPP profile, enter the following commands at the command prompt:
(Instant AP)(config)# hotspot anqp-3gpp-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(3gpp <name>)# 3gpp-plmn1 <plmn-ID>
(Instant AP)(3gpp <name>)# enable
(Instant AP)(3gpp <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
The Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) ID is a combination of the mobile country code and network code.
You can specify up to 6 PLMN IDs for a 3GPP profile.
