Configure the portal server detection function:
4.
# Configure the access device to detect portal server newpt, specifying the detection method as
portal heartbeat probe, setting the server probe interval to 40 seconds, and specifying the access
device to send a server unreachable trap message and disable portal authentication to permit
unauthenticated portal users if two consecutive probes fail.
[Switch] portal server newpt server-detect method portal-heartbeat action trap
permit-all interval 40 retry 2

The product of interval and retry must be greater than or equal to the portal server heartbeat interval, and
HP recommends configuring the interval as a value greater than the portal server heartbeat interval
configured on the portal server.

# Configure the access device to synchronize portal user information with portal server newpt,
setting the synchronization probe interval to 600 seconds, and specifying the access device to log
off users if the users do not appear in the user synchronization packets sent from the server in two
consecutive probe intervals.
[Switch] portal server newpt user-sync interval 600 retry 2
NOTE:
