Configuration Prerequisites; Configuring A Portal Authentication Server - HP 5920 Series Configuration Manual

Configuration prerequisites

The portal feature provides a solution for user identity authentication and security check. To complete
user identity authentication, portal must cooperate with RADIUS.
The prerequisites for portal authentication configuration are as follows:
The portal authentication server, portal Web server, and RADIUS server have been installed and
•
configured properly.
• To use the re-DHCP portal authentication mode, make sure the DHCP relay agent is enabled on the
access device, and the DHCP server is installed and configured properly.
The portal client, access device, and servers can reach each other.

configure the RADIUS client on the access device. For information about RADIUS client
configuration, see
To implement extended portal functions, install and configure IMC EAD. Make sure the ACLs

security policy server. For information about security policy server configuration on the access
device, see
