Re-direct Guest users to a website after accepting Terms and Condititons ?

How do you set up a process whereby wireless Guest users are re-directed to a url e.g www.extremenetworks.com after accepting terms and conditions on the captive portal ?

Hello Siobhan,
You did not detail what WiNG 5 device, but if using a wireless controller (e.g. NX, VX, RFS) or access point that supports this feature, you will use the following via the CLI:

enable [enter]

config [enter]

captive-portal xxxxxx [enter] (x represent captive portal policy. You can use tab key to auto-fill the name. If typing, capitalization matters with names)

webpage-location advanced [enter]

webpage external welcome xxxxxxxx [enter] (x represents complete URL)

webpage internal welcome use-external-success-url [enter]

com wr [enter]

Thanks Christopher. We are using a AP7522 in VC mode. Entering the CLI commands you suggested , we get a 404 error

That works for laptops and PC's but the the re-direct does not work on mobile devices? Any ideas why ?

Hi Siobhan, I believe you need an entry in all of the the URL fields before the OK button becomes available.
