Public/guest network access
Configuring the public access Web server
14-33
Options
NOC-based authentication
Enable this option to support NOC-based authentication.
NOC-based authentication must be used in conjunction with the remote login page feature.
The remote login page feature enables users to be redirected to a remote Web server to log in
instead of using the internal login page on the controller.
To validate user logins, a login application on the remote server must collect user login
information and send it to the controller for authentication.
See NOC authentication on page 15-62 and Appendix D: NOC authentication.
Ports
Specify the port number the Web server uses for each protocol.
If you enable support for proxy settings under Controller >> Public access > Access
control > Zero configuration, you must change the selected port to support client stations
that are using proxy servers on the standard port (8080 or 8090). The following mappings are
recommended:
Map the unsecure port 8080 to port 81
Map the secure port 8090 to port 444
Make sure that you do not remap these ports to values already in use on your network.
MIME types
MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) is an Internet standard that is used to
describe the type of information that a message or file contains.
By default, the controller contains the definitions for a number of common MIME types. If
you need to add your own definition, select Configure.
