Your product license may not support this feature.
6.
Enable or disable the AAA Passthrough Port feature, as required. System administrators can set the
Access Gateway to pass-through HTTPS traffic, in addition to standard port 80 traffic, without being
redirected. When access to a non-HTTPS address (for example, a Search Engine or News site) has been
requested, the subscriber is then redirected as usual.
7.
If AAA passthrough is enabled, enter the corresponding port number.
The port number must be different than 80, 2111, 1111, or 1112.
8.
Enable or disable the 802.1x Authentication Support feature, as required.
Both AAA and RADIUS Authentication must be enabled for 802.1x Authentication
support.
9.
Enable or disable the Origin Server (OS) parameter encoding for Portal Page and EWS feature, as
required.
10.
You can choose to Enable failover to Internal Web Server Authentication if Portal Page/External
Web Server is not reachable by placing a check in that box.
11.
Enable or disable Port Based Billing Policies.
With Port Based Billing Policies enabled, you can individually configure the billing methods (RADIUS,
PayPal, PMS) and the billing plans available on each port.
This ability allows for having different billing methods and billing plans on different ports identified by
VLANs or SNMP Port Query of the concentrator. A practical application of this feature is to have a
normal hotel room with a plan A that is $9.99 for a day with PMS billing and have a meeting room with a
plan of $14.99 an hour with PayPal billing.
In order for the port-based policies to work, you must enable Port Based Billing Policies. See also Adding
and Updating Port-Location Assignments {Add} on page 151.
12.
Enable or disable HTTPS Redirection.
The NSE responds to regular HTTP requests from pending subscribers with a redirection to the login
screen. The NSE does not respond to HTTPS requests from pending subscribers (HTTP requests with a
destination port = 443) with a redirect; this will result in a timeout or invalid certificate warning.
Enabling HTTPS Redirection adds a security exception to the user’s browser to allow the certificate
received from the NSE to be always “valid.”
