NOTE: If you need to rearrange a set of policy rules, select the checkbox to the left of a rule, and then click the Up and Down
buttons on the right to move the selected rule to a new position.
The rules in this policy allow clients to access a DHCP and DNS server to get their network settings and resolve DNS queries so
that they can access the captive web portal. They deny traffic to all private IP address spaces, thus blocking access to the internal
network. Rules 7–9 allow HTTP and HTTPS traffic so that guests can browse the public network and they allow IKE and NAT-T
traffic so that they can make VPN connections back to their corporate sites. Finally, Rule 10 logs all outgoing packets that
SmartPath APs drop because the firewall blocked them.
To save the firewall policy and close the dialog box, click "Save."
NOTE: You do not have to create a policy to control incoming traffic because you will set the default action to deny all incoming
and outgoing traffic not specified in any of the policy rules.
User Profile
A user profile contains the rate control and queuing QoS settings, VLAN, firewall policies, tunnel policy, and schedules that you
want the SmartPath AP to apply to traffic from certain users. Because the SSID in this example uses a preshared key for user
authentication, you can assign a single user profile to it.* The SmartPath AP then applies the various settings in the user profile to
all traffic on this SSID.
*An SSID using a preshared key supports a single user profile. An SSID using 802.1X authentication can support multiple user
profiles.
To define a user profile so that SmartPath APs can apply the appropriate QoS settings, VLAN, and firewall policies to all traffic on
that SSID, click Configuration > User Profiles > New, enter the following, leave the other settings as they are, and then click Save:
Name: Self-reg-guests(3)
The number 3 is included as part of the user profile name so that you can easily know its attribute number when looking
at the user profile name.
Attribute Number: 3
You must enter an attribute number that is unique for the WLAN policy to which the user profile is attached. Although
you can define different user profiles with the same attribute number in SmartPath EMS, the attribute number must be
unique for each user profile that appears in the same WLAN policy. You can set an attribute number between 1 and
4095. (The default user profile "default-profile", which cannot be deleted, uses attribute 0.)
