The web/registration server software is not included with this feature.

How HTTP Redirect Works

The unauth-redirect option must be configured with the registration server's
URL as a parameter before HTTP redirect operations can begin. The full URL
must be used, for example:
http://14.29.16.192:80/myServer.html
or
https://company.com/myServer.html
Syntax: [no] aaa port-access mac-based unauth-redirect
Configure the HTTP redirect registration server feature.
<redirect-URL-str>
Enable HTTP redirect registration server feature by
configuring the URL of the registration page. An entry
can have either an IP address or a DNS name. Only one
server can be configured.
Note: The entire URL must be used, including the
"http://" or "https://" portion.
[restrictive-filter]
Enable the redirect server to only return a Warning or
Information page.
[timeout <seconds>]
The time (in seconds) before a client in an
unauthorized redirection state is removed from the
state tables.
Range: <30-10800> seconds
Default: 1800 seconds
