Configuring the Captive Portal

Use the CP Summary page to create or delete captive portal configurations. The switch supports 10 CP configurations. CP

configuration 1 is created by default and can not be deleted. Each CP configuration can contain up to 5 locale specific web

configurations. Therefore a total maximum of 50 custom web page configurations can be created. Each captive portal

configuration can have unique guest or group access modes and a customized acceptance use policy that displays when

the client connects.

To view summary information about existing captive portals, or to add or delete a captive portal, click Security > Captive

Portal > CP Configuration.

Figure 79: Captive Portal Summary

To create a CP configuration, enter the configuration name in the text box and click Add. After you add the configuration,

the CP Configuration page for that configuration displays, and a new tab with the name of that configuration appears.

To delete an existing CP, select the check box for the CP to remove, and then click Delete.

To configure the settings for an existing CP, click the name in the Configuration column or click the appropriate tab.

Table 62 describes the fields on the CP Summary page.
