Managing local guests

About local guest management
The local guest management features are for registration, approval, maintenance, and access
control of local guests.
The registration and approval processes are as follows:
1. The device pushes the portal user registration page to a user that wants to access the network
as a local guest.
2. The user submits account information for registration, including the user name, password, and
email address.
3. The device forwards the registration request to the guest manager in an email notification.
4. The guest manager adds supplementary information as needed and approves the registration
information.
The guest manager must process the registration request before the waiting-approval timeout
timer expires. The device automatically deletes expired registration request information.
5. The device creates a local guest account and sends an email notification to the user and guest
sponsor. The email contains local guest account, password, validity period, and other account
information.
The user can access the network as a local guest.
The device provides the following local guest management features:
•
Registration and approval—The device creates local guests after the guest registration
information is approved by a guest manager.
•
Email notification—The device notifies the local guests, guest sponsors, or guest managers
by email of the guest account information or guest registration requests.
•
Local guest creation in batch—Create a batch of local guests.
•
Local guest import—Import guest account information from a .csv file to create local guests
on the device based on the imported information.
•
Local guest export—Export local guest account information to a .csv file. You can import the
account information to other devices as needed.
•
Guest auto-delete—The device regularly checks the validity status of each local guest and
automatically deletes expired local guests.
