Configure CWA on ExtremeControl

Configure CWA to integrate with an ExtremeControl server.

  1. On the ExtremeControl server, create a policy mapping for the ExtremeCloud IQ Controller network:
    • Map the policy to the ExtremeCloud IQ Controller network name.
    • Provide the redirection rule that you created on ExtremeCloud IQ Controller as the Filter ID value.
    • Provide the Redirection URL as the Cisco RADIUS attribute value pair (AVP). For example: cisco-avpair=url-redirect=http://10.47.1.15:80/
      Note

      Note

      Do not include query parameters in the url-redirect. The following AVP is not valid: cisco-avpair=url-redirect=http://10.47.1.15:80/?a=123, where ?a=123 is a query parameter.
  2. From the ExtremeControl server, go to Configuration > Profiles > Policy Mapping.
    The rules engine assigns the policy Unregistered to the redirection and assigns the policy Enterprise User when authenticated by the captive portal.
  3. Create a new mapping for the Unregistered policy.

    2. Select Device Groups and select the device group.
    3. Select Profile and edit the configuration Profile.
