Configuring the Captive Portal Settings Parent topic

The Captive Portal Sign-on page gives administrators the option of requiring all users to specify a user name and password (assigned by an Administrator) before accessing the network or Internet. If the UserID Agent is unable to associate a user with an IP address, a captive portal takes over and authenticates the user.
