  • 1.  Captive Portal Configuration

    Posted Jul 27, 2023 05:15 PM

    Hi Team,

    I hope you are all doing well!

    I was looking for documentation or guides on how to configure a Captive Portal using an Aruba Mobility Controller on version 6.5.

    I have found the section on the documentation page here (ArubaOS 6.5.0.x User Guide & CLI Reference Guide) , however I'm missing a guide on how to configure it without user authentication. See, I want to configure guest authentication (no username/password, just accept the terms and connect) but I cannot find a guide specific for tho's needs.

    Also, when I check out the default portal, I can only see a couple of buttons in the default portal page. There is only a field for username and password but when I want anonymous authentication I of course don't want the option to fill in username/password to appear.

    Can any of you maybe guide me trough the proces of share documentation with me for my needs?

    Thank you in advance,

    With best regards,

    Alvaro

    Hi Ariyap,

    Thank you for your reply. The video shown configures (I think) a Captive Portal for login via username/password. I am looking for a configuration where the user does not need to login. The user only accepts the terms and clicks connect. No username/password.

    Is there maybe a version of ArubaOS where there is documentation on this? Maybe I can upgrade to that version then.

    Thank you

    You need to go to Configuration> Security> Authentication> L2 Authentication.  Select your Captive Portal authentication profile.  Make sure that Guest Login and User Login is unchecked.  Also make sure that "show acceptable use policy page" is checked:
