5. Use Verification to select the mode for the CP to use to verify clients:
• Guest - The user does not need to be authenticated by a database.
• Local - The switch uses a local database to authenticated users.
• RADIUS - The switch uses a database on a remote RADIUS server to authenticate
users.
6. Use Block to control the blocked status. If the CP is blocked, users cannot gain access to
the network through the CP. Use this function to temporarily protect the network during
unexpected events, such as denial of service attacks.
7. If the Verification Mode is Local or RADIUS, use Group to assign an existing User Group
to the captive portal. All users who belong to the group are permitted to access the network
through this portal. The User Group list is the same for all CP configurations on the switch.
8. Use Idle Timeout to enter the number of seconds to wait before terminating a session. A
user is logged out once the idle time-out is reached. If the value is set to 0 then the time-out
is not enforced. The valid range is 0 to 86400 seconds and the default value is 0.
9. Use User Logout to allow the authenticated client to deauthenticate from the network.
10. Use Radius Auth Server to enter the IP address of the RADIUS server used for client
authentications. The switch acts as the RADIUS client and performs all RADIUS
transactions on behalf of the clients.
11. Use Redirect URL to specify the URL to which the newly authenticated client is redirected.
The max length for the URL is 512 alphanumeric characters.
12. Use Background Color to specify the value of the background color. Example: #BFBFBF.
13. Use Foreground Color to specify the value of the foreground color. Example: #999999.
14. Use Separator Color to specify the value of the separator color. Example: #46008F.
15. Use Max Bandwidth Down to specify the maximum rate (Rate in bytes per seconds) at
which a client can receive data from the network. 0 indicates limit not enforced (Range: 0 –
536870911).
16. Use Max Bandwidth Up to specify the maximum rate (Rate in bytes per seconds) at which
a client can send data into the network. 0 indicates limit not enforced (Range: 0 –
536870911).
17. Use Max Input to specify the maximum number of octets the user is allowed to transmit.
After this limit has been reached the user will be disconnected. 0 indicates limit not enforced
(Range: 0 – 4294967295).
18. Use Max Output to specify the maximum number of octets the user is allowed to receive.
After this limit has been reached the user will be disconnected. 0 indicates limit not enforced
(Range: 0 – 4294967295)
19. Use Max Total to specify the maximum number of octets the user is allowed to transfer, i.e.,
the sum of octets transmitted and received. After this limit has been reached the user will be
disconnected. 0 indicates limit not enforced (Range: 0 – 4294967295)
20. Click ADD to add a new CP instance.
21. Click DELETE to remove the currently selected CP instance.
