External Captive Portal with external authentication usage

[gabrielb]

Hi everyone.

I keep getting issues while configuring the CWP with external authentication because the guides I find always end up beeing a bit too old. Is there a more up to date guide for that?

Edit:
I'll try to explain my situation better.

Making the reg request directly from the server to the AP  returned the expected response and even redirected the user, but they were still not allowed to access the internet

the request I made for testing:

if(isset(Auth::user()->id))

{ $data['autherr']=0;

$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client(['base_uri'=>'http://1.1.1.1/']);

$response = $client->request('POST','reg.php',[

'autherr'=>$data['autherr'],

'url'=>secure_url('home')

]);

return redirect()->away(secure_url('home'));

}

the response I got, as expected:

So, my main trouble is that I'm not beeing able to make the last request (from client to ap) happen and the internet to be allowed after login. Here in red is where I'm having trouble:

So that's it, I just need this last piece to make it work, but can't find it anywhere 😕

Hi Gabriel, can you share the link to the outdated guides you've found so I can flag them for an update?

Sure, these are the ones that I keep finding but hardly help with it

I'm also uploading the one that helped me the most, but even with it I couldn't manage to allow users to use the internet after the external authentication.

Thanks for the attention.
