Network Login
Summit 300-48 Switch Software User Guide 105
URL redirection requires the switch to be assigned a DNS name. The default name is
network-access.net. Any DNS query coming to the switch to resolve switch DNS name in
unauthenticated mode is resolved by the DNS server on the switch in terms of the interface (to which
the network login port is connected to) IP-address.
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.ne
t forces the switch to send DNS responses back to the netlogin clients when a DNS
query is made for
network-access.net.
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 once logged in. This redirection
information is used only in case the redirection info is missing from RADIUS server. For example,
configure netlogin base-url http://www.extremenetworks.com redirects all users to this URL
after they are logged in.
The network login session refresh is always enabled on the switch. To change the timer for the network
login session refresh, use the following command:
enable netlogin session-refresh <minutes>
Where <minutes> ranges from 1 - 255. The default setting is 3 minutes. The enable netlogin
session-refresh
command forces the logout window to refresh at the configured time interval. The
purpose of this command is to log out users who are indirectly connected to the switch, such as through
a hub. The command also monitors and logs out users who have disconnected the computer or have
closed the logout window.
