Creating a Hotspot Walled Garden

You can use the Hotspot Walled Garden rules to designate network destinations (host
address or subnet) that users can access without going through authentication. A
Walled Garden is a limited environment to which an unauthenticated user is given
access for the purpose of setting up an account. After the account is established, the
user is allowed out of the Walled Garden. URLs will be resolved to an IP address (up
to four). Users will not be able to click through to other URLs that may be presented
on a page if that page is hosted on a server with a different IP address. Avoid using
common URLs that are translated into many IP addresses (such as www.yahoo.com),
as users may be redirected to reauthenticate when they navigate through the page.
To create Walled Garden rules
1. Go to Configuration > Hotspot > Walled Garden.
2. Click Add New Entry. A field entitled Walled Garden Hosts appears.
3. In Walled Garden Host, enter a host name, IP address, network segment (e.g.,
192.168.1.0/24) or a domain name. If a domain name is entered, it will be resolved
every 5 minutes.
The UAM Shared Secret is the shared secret
between this Access Point and the HTTP server for
the Redirection URL. This setting is optional.
