    Posted Nov 20, 2015 12:21 AM

    When I connected to the Captive Portal SSID on ArubaOS

    and I used http://xxx.com it's works fine

    but when I used https://xxx.com it return the web page that I must accept the certificate and sometimes it show nothing to accept the certificate.

    Can I solve this problem?

    TCK2534,

     

    This is a common problem.  If you redirect a user from an https page, they will always get the certificate error, because that is not the page they requested.  This is in industry problem with Captive Portal.  Please see here:  http://serverfault.com/questions/596844/ssl-certificate-errors-in-captive-portals

     

    The user will always have to be redirected an http page for this to work smoothly.
