Configuring the IE redirect URL
Follow these steps to configure the IE redirect URL:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the IE redirect URL
The redirect URL and the freely accessible network segment must belong to the same network segment.
Otherwise, the specified URL is unaccessible.
Setting the EAD rule timeout time
With the EAD fast deployment function, a user is authorized by an EAD rule (generally an ACL rule) to
access the freely accessible network segment before passing authentication. After successful
authentication, the occupied ACL will be released. If a large amount of users access the freely
accessible network segment but fail the authentication, ACLs will soon be used up and new users will
be rejected.
An EAD rule timeout timer is designed to solve this problem. When a user accesses the network, this
timer is started. If the user neither downloads client software nor performs authentication before the
timer expires, the occupied ACL will be released so that other users can use it. When there are a large
number of users, you can shorten the timeout time to improve the ACL usage efficiency.
Follow these steps to set the EAD rule timeout time:
