Creating a Custom Guest Pass Printout
The guest pass printout is a printable HTML page that contains instructions for the guest pass
user on how to connect to the wireless network successfully. The authenticated user who is
generating the guest pass will need to print out this HTML page and provide it to the guest
pass user. A guest pass in English is included by default.
As administrator, you can create custom guest pass printouts. For example, if your organization
receives visitors who speak different languages, you can create guest pass printouts in other
languages.
To create a custom guest pass printout
1. Go to Configure > Guest Access.
2. Scroll down to the Guest Pass Printout Customization section (bottom of the page).
3. Click the click here link under the Guest Pass Printout Customization section title to
download the sample guest pass printout (in HTML format). Save the HTML file to your
computer.
4. Using a text or HTML editor, customize the guest pass printout. Note that only ASCII
characters can be used. You can do any or all of the following:
•
Reword the instructions
•
Translate the instructions to another language
•
Customize the HTML formatting
The guest pass printout contains several tokens or variables that are substituted with actual
data when the guest pass is generated. When you customize the guest pass printout, make
sure that these tokens are not deleted. For more information on these tokens, see
Pass Printout Tokens"
5. Go back to the Guest Pass Printout Customization section, and then click Create New. The
Create New form appears.
6. In Name, type a name for the guest pass printout that you are creating. For example, if this
guest pass printout is in Spanish, you can type Spanish.
7. In Description (optional), add a brief description of the guest pass printout.
8. Click Browse, select the HTML file that you customized earlier, and then click Open.
ZoneDirector copies the HTML file to its database.
9. Click Import to save the HTML file to the ZoneDirector database.
You have completed creating a custom guest pass printout. When users generate a guest pass,
the custom printout that you created will appear as one of the options that they can print (see
Figure
136).
