Step 3 – Launch Web Browser and login
When the web browser on the test laptop is launched the DSA will automatically capture the
session and redirect the user to the amigopod hosted login page as shown below (which was
defined in the Custom Pages ! Login Page)
Enter the test user details entered and recorded in Step 1 above and click the Login button.
At this point the test user should be successfully authenticated and allowed to transit through
the controller and onto the Internet or Corporate network.
Note: If the web browser fails to redirect check that the DNS server configured in the base DSA-
3600 configuration defined before Step 1 is available and successfully resolving domain names.
Without name resolution working the web browser will never attempt to connect to the website
defined in web browser home page and therefore there is no session for the DSA-3600
controller to redirect. Other situations that can cause issues with the captive portal include but
are not limited to:
Web browser home page set to intranet site not available in current DNS
•
Proxy Server configuration in browser using non standard HTTP ports
•
CONFIDENTIAL
