Enabling and Disabling Web-Based Network Login
To enable web-based network login on the switch, use the following command:
enable netlogin web-based
Any combination of types of authentication can be enabled on the same switch. At least one
of the authentication types must be specified on the CLI.
To disable web-based network login on the switch, use the following command:
disable netlogin web-based
To enable web-based network login on one or more ports, use the following command:
enable netlogin ports <portlist> web-based
Network Login must be disabled on a port before you can delete a VLAN that contains that
port. To disable web-based network login on one or more ports, use the following command:
disable netlogin ports <portlist> web
Configuring the Base URL
To configure the network login base URL, use the following command:
configure netlogin base-url <url>
Where <url> is the DNS name of the switch. For example, configure netlogin base-url
network-access.net makes the switch send DNS responses back to the network login clients
when a DNS query is made for
network-access.net.
Configuring the Redirect Page
To configure the network login redirect page, use the following command:
configure netlogin redirect-page <url>
Where <url> defines the redirection information for the users after they have logged in. You
must configure a complete URL starting with
http:// or https://
By default, the redirect URL value is “http://www.netgear.com”.
You can also configure the redirect value to a specific port number, such as 8080. For
example, you can configure the network login redirect page to the URL value
“
http://www.netgear.com:8080”. The default port value is 80.
