Figure 90: CP Activation and Activity Status

The CP Activation and Activity Status page has a menu that contains all captive portals configured on the switch. When

you select a captive portal, the activation and activity status for that portal displays.

Table 74 describes the information that displays for each portal.

The following buttons are available on the CP Activation and Activity page:

•Block—Click Block to prevent users from gaining access to the network through the selected captive portal.

•Unblock—If the Blocked Status of the selected captive portal is Blocked, click Unblock to allow access to the network

through the captive portal.

•Refresh—Click Refresh to update the screen with the most current information.

Table 74: CP Activation and Activity Status

Field Description

Operational Status Indicates whether the captive portal is enabled or disabled.

Disable Reason If the captive portal is disabled, then this field indicates the reason. The portal instance may

be disabled for the following reasons:

• None - CP is enabled.

• Administratively Disabled

• RADIUS Authentication mode enabled, but RADIUS server is not defined.

• Not associated with any interfaces.

• The associated interfaces do not exist or do not support the CP capability.

Blocked Status Indicates whether authentication attempts to the captive portal are currently blocked.

Use the Block and Unblock buttons to control the blocked status. If the CP is blocked, users

cannot gain access to the network through the CP. Use this function to temporarily protect the

network during unexpected events, such as denial of service attacks.

Note: The Blocked Status is the operational status and not the configured status. It does not

persist over a reboot. By default, the status is unblocked.

Block and Unblock are only available when the CP operational status is Enabled.

Authenticated Users Shows the number of users that successfully authenticated to this captive portal and are

currently using the portal. The range is an integer. The default is 0.
