Captive Portal

This section describes the Captive Portal (CP) feature, which allows you to block
wireless clients from accessing the network until user verification has been
established You can configure CP verification to allow access for both guest
and authenticated users The access point CP feature supports both IPv4 and
IPv6 clients
Authenticated users must be validated against a database of authorized
Captive Portal groups or users before access is granted The database can be
stored locally on the access point or on a RADIUS server
Captive Portal consists of two CP instances Each instance can be configured
independently, with different verification methods for each VAP or SSID The
AP operates concurrently with some VAPs configured for CP authentication
and other VAPs configured for normal wireless authentication methods, such
as WPA or WPA Enterprise
