Operating Notes for HTTP Redirect

  • If the configured URL contains a domain name (as opposed to an IP address) the switch’s DNS resolver must be configured:
    switch(config)# ip dns server-address priority 1 <ipv4=address>
  • The NAT does an IP route lookup before it sends the packet to the destination registration server. A VLAN must have been configured that allows the switch to access the registration server.

  • The initial page, redirect server, and filter path configuration is per-switch.
