Specifying a portal Web server
With a portal Web server specified on an interface, the device redirects the HTTP or HTTPS requests of portal users on the interface to the portal Web server.
With a portal Web server specified on a service template, the device redirects the HTTP or HTTPS requests of portal users on the WLAN-BSS interfaces bound to the service template to the portal Web server.
IPv4 and IPv6 portal authentication can both be enabled on an interface. You can specify both a primary portal Web server and a backup portal Web server after enabling each type (IPv4 or IPv6) of portal authentication.
The device first uses the primary portal Web server for portal authentication. When the primary portal Web server is unreachable but the backup portal Web server is reachable, the device uses the backup portal Web server. When the primary portal Web server becomes reachable, the device switches back to the primary portal Web server for portal authentication.
To automatically switch between the primary portal Web server and the backup portal Web server, configure portal Web server detection on both servers.
You can specify both IPv4 and IPv6 portal Web servers on an interface.
