Splash Page Design
Under Splash Page Visuals, use the editor to specify display text and colors

l To change the color of the splash page, click the Splash page rectangle
and select the required color from the Background Color palette.

type the required text in the Welcome text box, and click OK. Ensure that
the welcome text does not exceed 127 characters.
l To change the policy text, click the second square box in the splash page,
type the required text in the Policy text box, and click OK. Ensure that the
policy text does not exceed 255 characters.

browse the image file, and click upload image. Ensure that the image
file size does not exceed 16 KB.
l To redirect users to another URL, specify a URL in Redirect URL.
l Click Preview to preview the captive portal page.
NOTE: You can customize the captive portal page using double-byte
characters. Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean are a few
languages that use double-byte characters. Click the banner, term, or policy
in the Splash Page Visuals to modify the text in the red box. These fields
accept double-byte characters or a combination of English and double-byte
characters.
