Figure 3 Applications: Captive Portal
The captive portal page only appears once per authentication session. Unless a session times out or
a user closes the connection, he or she generally will not see it again during the same session.
1.3.4 Load Balancing
With load balancing you can easily distribute wireless traffic across multiple APs to relieve strain on
your network. When a station becomes overloaded, it can automatically delay a connection until the
client associates with another network, or it can alternatively disassociate idle clients or those
clients with weak connections from the network.
1.3.5 Dynamic Channel Selection
The NXC can automatically select the radio channel upon which its APs broadcast by scanning the
area around those APs and determining what channels are currently being used by other devices
not connected to the network.
1.3.6 User-Aware Access Control
Set up security policies that restrict access to sensitive information and shared resources based on
the user who is trying to access it.
