b. Provide a numerical IP address or Hostname within the DNS Entry parameter for each
destination IP address or host included in the Whitelist.
c. Use the Match Suffix parameter to match any hostname or domain name as a suffix. The
default setting is disabled.
d. If necessary, select the radio button of an existing Whitelist entry and select the - Delete
icon to remove the entry from the Whitelist.
11. Set the following Accounting parameters to define how accounting is conducted for clients
entering and exiting the captive portal. Accounting is the method of collecting and sending
security server information for billing, auditing and reporting user data; such as captive portal
start and stop times, executed commands (such as PPP), number of packets and number of
bytes. Accounting enables wireless network administrators to track captive portal services
users are consuming.
12. Set the following Data Limit parameters values to define a data limit for clients accessing the
network using the restrictions of a captive portal:
13. Set the Logout FQDN as the FQDN address to logout of the captive portal session from the
client (for example, logout.guest.com).
14. Refer to the Destination Ports for Redirection parameter (within the Redirection Ports field),
and enter destination ports (separated by commas, or using a dash for a range) for
consideration when re-directing client connections. Standard ports 80 and 443 are always
considered for client connections regardless of what’s entered by the administrator.
15. Select the Web Page tab to create locally or externally hosted HTML pages.
The Login page displays by default.
Enable RADIUS
Accounting Select this option to use an external RADIUS resource for AAA accounting. When selected, a AAA Policy
field displays. This setting is disabled by default.
Enable Syslog
Accounting Select this option to log information about the use of remote access services by users using an external
syslog resource. This information is of great assistance in partitioning local versus remote users. Remote
user information can be archived to an external location for periodic network and user administration.
This feature is disabled by default.
Syslog Host When syslog accounting is enabled, use the drop-down menu to determine whether an IP address or
Hostname is used as a syslog host. The IP address or hostname of an external server resource is required
to route captive portal syslog events to that destination external resource destination.
Syslog Port When syslog accounting is enabled, define the numerical syslog port the used to route traffic with the
external syslog server. The default port is 514.
Limit Select this option to enable data limits for captive portal clients. Specify the maximum amount of data, in
MegaBytes, allowed for each captive portal client. When a user reaches this threshold, from 1 and
102,400 MegaBytes, it triggers the specified action.
Action When a captive portal client reaches its data usage limit, a specified log action is executed. Available
actions are Log Only and log-and-disconnect. When Log Only is selected, an entry is added to the log file
any time a captive portal client exceeds the data limit. When log-and-disconnect is selected, an entry is
added to the log file when the data limit is exceeded and the client is disconnected from the captive
portal.
