NOTE:

H3C recommends using browser IE 6.0 or later on the authentication clients.

Make sure that the browser of an authentication client permits pop-ups or permits pop-ups from the
access device. Otherwise, the user cannot log off by closing the logon success or online page and can
only click Cancel to return to the logon success or online page.

If a user refreshes the logon success or online page, or jumps to another web site from either of the
pages, the device also logs off the user.

If a user is using the Chrome browser, the device cannot log off the user when the user closes the logon
success or online page.

Portal authentication configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 422

, the wireless client belongs to VLAN 2. It accesses the network through the AP,

which belongs to VLAN 3. The model and serial ID of the AP is WA2100 and 210235A29G007C00002,

respectively.
AC supports the local portal server, which runs HTTPS. The local portal server can push the

corresponding customized pages according to the SSID of the user logon interface.
A RADIUS server (IMC server) serves as the authentication/accounting server.
The client must pass direct portal authentication to access unrestricted Internet resources. Before

authentication, the client can access only the local portal server.
