obtained for the MU. The MU is then unsuccessful in pinging the host IP address
(157.235.95.54) from within the hotspot. Consequently, the Allowed List should be
used for host IPs only.

configured for authentication on the other switches, those switches will redirect to
their own internal pages instead. In these environments is recommended to use an
external server for all of the switches.
