Proxim ORiNOCO AP-2500 - Manual (Page 138)

Public Space Parameters
Follow these steps to enable SMTP Redirection:
1. Login to the AP’s Web browser interface.
2. Click PublicSpace > SMTP.
3. If you want all outgoing mail traffic redirected to the specified server, enable both the Misconfigured and Properly
Configured options. If you want properly configured subscribers to send mail without being redirected, enable only
the Misconfigured option.
•
Misconfigured refers to subscribers whose e-mail settings are incompatible with the AP-2500’s Internet
settings (in other words, these e-mail settings may work on the subscriber’s home or office network but they
won’t work in the hotspot).
• Properly Configured refers to subscribers whose e-mail settings should work on the hotspot network so you
do not necessarily need to redirect these messages to your own server.
NOTE
In general, Proxim recommends that you enable both options. Also, you should never enable Properly
Configured and disable Misconfigured (this combination defeats the purpose of SMTP Redirection).
4. Enter the IP address of the SMTP server to which outgoing e-mails will be redirected in the SMTP Server IP
Address field.
5. Click OK.

Passthrough Addresses
This tab provides a method for DNS Names, IP Addresses, and an AAA port to “passthrough” the AP-2500 and access
pre-determined services (for example, a portal page) without authentication. This feature also allows you to create a
“walled garden” of free content that you can provide to your customers. Typically, the walled garden content would
appear on your portal page or custom login page. See
Portal Page for more information.
The following DNS names or addresses must appear in a Passthrough table for the related feature to work properly:
• Portal Page server address
• Credit Card server address
• External Web Server address (if using External authentication)
• The Domain Names or IP addresses for walled garden content
