Controllerless Networks

Hi,

It looks like I have an issue when I'm creating a Guest WLAN and using the captive portal.

I would like to "bypass" this portal for specific MAC addresses. 
I have enabled the option, added the mac@ as username & password, but i still have the portal page.

Also, do you know if it is possible in this portal to only include the banner ? without the email field ?

Thank you very much.

Hi,

In order to give to spesefic mac address to ability to bypass captive portal pages,u should enbale user deviertion roles in your AAA profile.

here is an example:

Please read the following post:

Thank you for your quick answer, unfortunately I'm running on IAP-105 without controller.

Thus, I don't have all these settings,

This is what it looks like:

Please search the support knowledgebase here:  http://support.arubanetworks.com/KNOWLEDGEBASE/tabid/133/Default.aspx for mac authentication instant.

One article I pulled up in the search is here:  https://arubanetworkskb.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/HowTo/R-1471

Again thank you, this article is exactly what I'm looking for:

https://arubanetworkskb.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/HowTo/How-do-I-configure-Captive-Portal-with-MAC-authentication-on-an-SSID-in-Aruba-Instant

Unfortunattely, I'm not able to choose the "Enforce MAC auth only role" in the role based access role.

The only option I have are "Network Based" or "Unrestricted". ( I'm using the internal database).

It looks like this option is only there when I use an external database server.

Hi,

What InstatOS version are u using? (U must use version 3.2 or higher to enable those feauters)

Also...

I attached for u the userguide (Please read from page 139)

Aruba Instant 6.2.0.0-3.2 User Guide.pdf   8.96 MB 1 version

I'm using 6.2.0.0-3.2.0.2_37229. 

Did u notice this:

Also , please take a look on older post i wrote for someone:

*Contain a working method*

Well the second method is working properly, but it doesn't really match what I'd like to do.

1 SSID: - A captive portal with legal notice for users (without auth.)
               - unrestricted access with mac @ for printers, ...

I guess the only way to do this is to go with a radius, or to user 2 diffrent SSID.

Yep,

As far as the userguide... and as far as i know.

Again, thank you very much.

I'm really impressed by the quickness of this community !

Thank you so much for this detailed description.

It worked smoothly :smileyhappy:
