Although the remote login page feature enables you to host the public access login page on a
remote Web server, authentication of users is still performed by the controller through a
RADIUS server or using the local user list. To accomplish this, the remote Web server must
send user login information back to the controller. There are two ways this can be done:
basic remote login (as described in this section), or by using the NOC-based authentication
feature (described in Appendix D: NOC authentication).
The following diagram shows the sequence of events for a typical user session when using a
remote login page and a RADIUS server for authentication.
