Configuring a Web authentication-free subnet

You can configure a Web authentication-free subnet so that users can freely access the network
resources in the subnet without being authenticated.
To configure a Web authentication-free subnet:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure a Web
authentication-free subnet.
Setting the maximum number of Web
authentication users
If the maximum number of online Web authentication users you set is less than that of the current
online Web authentication users, the limit can be set successfully and does not impact the online
Web authentication users. However, the system does not allow new Web authentication users to log
in until the number drops down below the limit.
To set the maximum number of Web authentication users:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Set the maximum number of
Web authentication users on
the interface.
Configuring online Web authentication user
detection
This feature enables the device to periodically check whether MAC address entries of online users
on an interface are refreshed or age out. A user fails the detection if the MAC address entry of the
user is not refreshed or ages out. The device forcibly logs out a user if the user fails the detection for
successive two times.
