AP-51xx Access Point Product Reference Guide
When a client requests a URL from a Web server, the login handler returns an HTTP redirection status
code (for example, 301 Moved Permanently), which indicates to the browser it should look for the
page at another URL. This other URL can be a local or remote login page (based on the hotspot
configuration). The login page URL is specified in the location's HTTP header.
To host a Login page on the external Web server, the IP address of the Web server should be in the
