CHAPTER 23
Web Authentication
23.1 Overview
Web authentication can intercepts network traffic, according to the authentication policies, until the
user authenticates his or her connection, usually through a specifically designated login web page
or user agreement page. This means all web page requests can initially be redirected to a special
web page that requires users to authenticate their sessions. Once authentication is successful, they
can then connect to the rest of the network or Internet.
As soon as a user attempt to open a web page, the UAG reroutes his/her browser to a web portal
page that prompts he/she to log in or agree to the policy of user agreement.
Figure 178 Web Authentication Example
The web authentication page only appears once per authentication session. Unless a user session
times out or he/she closes the connection, he or she generally will not see it again during the same
session.
