Extreme Campus Controller supports integration with an External Captive Portal (ECP) on a third-party

server.

An ECP is a web server that hosts a site that allows users to authenticate to the network. When the web

server is not hosted on Extreme Campus Controller, the captive portal is considered a third-party ECP.

Extreme Campus Controller intercepts and redirects the user’s HTTP messages to the ECP web server.

ECP authentication involves ﬁltering trac of unauthenticated clients. When the client sends HTTP

trac, its browser is redirected to a website where the client’s user can authenticate. The website is

referred to as an ECP because it is located outside Extreme Campus Controller (which also oers an

‘internal’ captive portal). The ECP authenticates the user in whatever way it sees ﬁt, and then tells

Extreme Campus Controller or the AP whether the user is authenticated and what policy to apply to the

user’s session.

All interactions with the ECP are initiated by the user. The enterprise allows sta and guests to egress

through port 80 on the ﬁrewall to use the third-party ECP.

We will discuss how to conﬁgure and program the ECP to interact with Extreme Campus Controller. This

includes details about the message sequence that occurs when a client authenticates through an ECP.

The following authentication ﬂows are supported:

• A simpliﬁed ﬂow in which Extreme Campus Controller accepts instructions from the ECP relayed

through the client web browser.

• A more complex ﬂow in which Extreme Campus Controller invokes RADIUS authentication to

conﬁrm the apparent authentication status of the client.
