    Hi community 

    Can somebody confirm (or not):

     

    Is it possible to use internal captive portal built in controller altogether with ClearPass as radius authentication server ?

     

    In GUI there is option as follows:

     

    Internal Captive Portal with authentication

    but there's no option to set authentication server ?

     

    If someone have example and can share I wiil be happy

     

    Regards

     

    Karol

    Yeah it should.

     

    But thats not the normal approach..why not use ClearPass for Captive Portal ? Its much better I think

    Okay, sorry I was just curious

     

    Just go to: Authentication --> L3 Authentication --> Captive Portal Authentication --> YOUR PROFILE 

     

    And change the Server Group.

    That might work, but I have not tested this.

    Yes, that is possible, but not within the wizard.

     

    Create the WLAN via the wizard and than you have to configure a new AAA Profile for that WLAN VAP.

     

    Go to the right top corner - "admin" - "Preferences" - set the hook to show advanced Options

     

    Than go to the WLAN SSID - right hand "Profiles" - ... - AAA and set the ClearPass AAA Profile.

    This has to be configured beforehand if not already done.
