Creating A Web Login Page; Figure 7 Sequence Diagram For Guest Captive Portal And Web Login - Aruba Networks PowerConnect W Clearpass 100 Software Deployment Manual

Figure 7 Sequence diagram for guest captive portal and Web login

In a typical configuration, you would enable the captive portal functionality of your NAS [1], and use the
URL of your custom Web login page as the default portal landing page [2] for unauthorized guests.
When the login form is submitted [3], the Login Message page is displayed to the visitor [4]. A subsequent
automatic redirect to the NAS will perform the actual login [5], which invokes the AAA process. If this is
successful, the NAS will apply the appropriate security policy to the visitor's session [6], enabling them to
start browsing the Internet [7].
In this way you can provide a branded and customized login page that is integrated with your existing
network access devices.
Use this list view to define new Web login pages, and to make changes to existing Web login pages.

Creating a Web Login Page

To create a new Web login page, navigate to Customization > Web Logins.
Click Create a new Web login page to create a Web login page for your guests.
There are five sections to this form.
The first section requires that you enter a name for this login page, as well as an optional page name. You
can also provide an optional description of the login page.
To use predefined network settings for NAS equipment, select the appropriate vendor in the Vendor
Settings drop-down list. If your NAS vendor is not listed, or if you would prefer to customize all aspects of
the Web login page, choose Custom Settings
