UTHENTICATION

auth-web-server dhcp-wpad-option

This command sets the DHCP WPAD (Web Proxy Auto-Discovery) option for the

Web-Authentication temporary DHCP service.

For more information and examples, see the "Web Auth Proxy" section in the

Alliedware Plus Technical Tips and Tricks.

Use the no variant of this command to disable the DHCP WPAD function.

auth-web-server dhcp wpad-option <url>

no auth-web-server dhcp wpad-option

The Web-Authentication server DHCP WPAD option is not set.

Global Configuration

If the supplicant is configured to use WPAD, the supplicant's web browser will use

TCP port 80 as usual. Therefore, the packet can be intercepted by

Web-Authentication as normal, and the Web-Authentication Login page can be

sent. However, after authentication, the browser does not know where to get the

WPAD file and so cannot access external web pages. The WPAD file is usually

named proxy.pac file and tells the browser what web proxy to use.

Use this command to tell the supplicant where it can get this file from. The switch

itself can be specified as the source for this file, and it can deliver it to the

supplicant on request.

To specify that the proxy.pac file is found on the server at 192.168.1.100, use the

following commands:

awplus(config)#

http://192.168.1.100/proxy/proxy.pac
