    Posted Oct 17, 2013 12:40 PM

    Hi all ,

     

    Enabled Insight on CPPM but can´t check active sessions on clearpass sessions:

     

    "

    There are no sessions to display."

     

    On Aruba controller the guest client shows up  good

    Shoudn´t this one also be showned on Active sessions?

     

    Another thing is.. Can I put a background image on Captive portal page in ClearPass guest  we login??

     

    Regards

    Did you enable radius accounting in the AAA profile on the Aruba Controller?  Just put the same server group into the radius accounting server group on the controller.

    As for the background image

     

    The Custom Skin included allows for personalizing all aspects of the Guest presentation layer. But you need to code up your own CSS with the background itself uploaded via Content Manager.

    Some header or footer text area will need something along the lines of:

     

    {literal}
    <style type="text/css">
    BODY {
        background: #fff url(public/my-background.png) repeat-x;
    }
    </style>
    {/literal}
    
    
    

    Reference for CSS help http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_background.asp

    Hi,

     

    Content Manager is on ClearPass

    ClearPass Onboard > Configuration > Content Manager

     Upload your image there.

     

    Then inside your code just point to the image.

     

    img src="public/images/<path to image>"

     I created an "images" directory under the Content Manager so you can ignore that part.

     

    But the path starts in "public/"

     

    Cheers

    Hi,

     

    Is it for somehow possible to copy the captive portal design that is already created in Aruba and put it on ClearPass?

     

    Because I already have in the controller a captive portal with the client JPG..

     

    Regards

    You would need to rebuild it in ClearPass. CP Guest uses a template engine.

    If you want to use your own background then you its done in html with CSS formating.

    It looks like you set your background using this.

     

    Check this page out

    I just did a quick Google search and it has some examples of how to make your BG image full screen.

     

    Someone else here with better knowledge of css/html might have simpler way of doing it though.

     

    Cheers

    Hi

     

    IS there any way to put an html page already done direclty in Clear PAss.

     

    I editied some HTML code with CoffeCup HTML and know ia have a html page to load into CPPM.

     

    But i only see put the code under web logins on guest manager by hand and it gives me a lot of errors.

     

    Regards

    You can upload it under the Content Manager.

     

    If you wish to use your page though to authenticate users then you would probably have to

    use the "custom form" option for the login page. I believe if you select this option

    though you have to provide all the code to send the username and password to the ClearPass.

     

    If it is just going to be a simple landing page, then you can just link to it.
