Onboarding Rules

Configuration → Onboarding → Rules

Onboarding rules are used in conjunction with onboarding policies to give flexibility when determining hotspot user access. Policies are matched to the hotspot user based on onboarding rules. Then the matching policy with the highest precedence number is used to onboard the hotspot user. Create onboarding policies before creating onboarding rules.

  1. Go to Configuration → Onboarding → Rules from the main menu.
