Captive Portal for browsers with proxy configuration on IAP 

Aug 17, 2015 03:41 PM

Q:

Can I customize proxy ports with captive portal authentication on IAP?



A:
This article is applicable to IAP running code 4.2. 
 
 IAP support for Captive Portal was only available for standard ports 443 and 80.   We added support for customized ports, which allows client to use proxy server and port when connected to Captive Portal network.
 

There are 2 ways to configure Captive Portal proxy server and port:

1.  In wlan ssid-profile

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (config) # wlan ssid-profile test

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (SSID Profile "test") # captive-portal-proxy-server 10.65.184.99 7788     ---- enable proxy

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (SSID Profile "test") # no captive-portal-proxy-server                                 ---- disable proxy

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (SSID Profile "test") # end

18:64:72:c1:36:d6# commit apply 

 

2.  Global configuration

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (config) # proxy server 10.65.184.103 7788                                               ---- enable proxy

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (config) # no proxy server                                                                           ---- disable proxy

18:64:72:c1:36:d6 (config) # end

18:64:72:c1:36:d6# commit apply 

 

Priority:

If both configuration exist, IAP will take profile-specific setting as high priority.

Datapath ACL for CP pre-auth role, IAP will listen port 7788 for packet from client,  as well as port 80 && 443

18:64:72:c1:36:d6#  show datapath acl 118

15:  any  any  6 0-65535 7788-7788  172.31.98.2 172.31.98.1 8080 PSD4  hits 246

16:  any  any  6 0-65535 443-443  172.31.98.2 172.31.98.1 4343 PSD4
