Supported in the following platforms:

  • Access Points — AP505i, AP510i/e, AP560i/h
  • Service Platforms — NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600, VX9000

use [aaa-policy <AAA-POLICY-NAME>|dns-whitelist <DNS-WHITELIST-NAME>]

Parameters

use [aaa-policy <AAA-POLICY-NAME>|dns-whitelist <DNS-WHITELIST-NAME>]

aaa-policy <AAA-POLICY-NAME>

Associates a AAA policy with this captive portal. AAA policies validate user credentials and provide captive portal access to the network.

  • <AAA-POLICY-NAME> – Specify the AAA policy name.

For more information on AAA policies, see AAA Policy.

dns-whitelist <DNS-WHITELIST-NAME>

Associates a DNS whitelist to use with this captive portal. A DNS whitelist defines a set of allowed destination IP addresses. DNS whitelists restrict captive portal access.

  • <DNS-WHITELIST-NAME> – Specify the DNS whitelist name.

To effectively host captive portal pages on an external Web server, the IP address of the destination Web server(s) should be added to the DNS whitelist.

For more information on DNS whitelists, see dns-whitelist.
