3. Refer to the Captive Portal Hosting field to set or override a guest access configuration (captive portal) for use with this profile.

   A captive portal is guest access policy for providing temporary and restrictive access to the network. The primary means of securing such guest access is a captive portal.

   A captive portal configuration provides secure authenticated access using a standard Web browser. A captive portal provides authenticated access by capturing and re-directing a user's Web browser session to a captive portal login page where the user must enter valid credentials to access to the network. After the administrator has logged into the captive portal, additional Agreement, Welcome, and Fail pages provide the administrator with several options for the captive portal‘s screen flow and user appearance.

   Select an existing captive portal policy, use the default captive portal policy, or click the Create link to create a new configuration that can be applied to this profile. For more information, see Configuring Captive Portal Policies.

   DHCP Server Policy is a configuration that defines the DHCP pool, global settings, and DHCP class information for IPv4 DHCP servers.
5. Use the DHCPv6 Server Policy drop-down menu assign this profile a DHCPv6 server policy.
   IPv6 DHCP Server Policy is a configuration that defines the DHCP pool, global settings, and DHCP class information for IPv6 DHCP servers.
6. Refer to the Bonjour Gateway field to select or set a Bonjour Gateway Forwarding Policy.
   Bonjour is Apple‘s implementation of zero-configuration networking (Zeroconf). Zeroconf is a group of technologies that include service discovery, address assignment and hostname resolution. Bonjour locates devices such as printers, other computers and services that these computers offer over a local network.

   Bonjour Forwarding Policy enables discovery of services on VLANs which are not visible to the device running the Bonjour Gateway. Bonjour forwarding enables forwarding of Bonjour advertisements across VLANs to enable the Bonjour Gateway device to build a list of services and the VLANs where these services are available.
