the specified SSID has to log into the network via captive portal after the session times out.
Note: This only works when you select Fallback to Captive Portal after MAC
authentication failure in the Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID >
Security Profile > Add/Edit screen.

after a rule is created.
