Captive Portal Commands
The Captive Portal feature is a software implementation that blocks clients from accessing the
network until user verification has been established. Verification can be configured to allow access
for both guest and authenticated users. Authenticated users must be validated against a database of
authorized Captive Portal users before access is granted.
The Authentication server supports both HTTP and HTTPS web connections. In addition, Captive
Portal can be configured to use an optional HTTP port (in support of HTTP Proxy networks). If
configured, this additional port is then used exclusively by Captive Portal. Note that this optional
port is in addition to the standard HTTP port 80 which is currently being used for all other web
traffic.
