Unable to get the logon page by using HTTPS

  • 1.  Unable to get the logon page by using HTTPS

    Posted Apr 21, 2016 01:53 AM

    Hi Guys,

     

    I set up a Captive Portal for the guest, and everything was working fine.

    But there is only one problem, when I used https://www.google.com or https://www.bing.com to redirect the logon page, it was working.

    From the show datapath session, it shown FDYCA flag.

     

    Could some one tell me how to fix it, please?

     

    Thank you

    What session is denied (D) in your session table?? The session to the HTTPS server? The redirect? The session to your captive portal following?

     

    What client are you using? OS? Browser? Does it matter?

     

    Flag Y means: No SYN, which suggests that there might be asymetric routing, or another network path outside the WLAN.

     

    Please note that there are serious issues with Captive Portal redirects from HTTPS websites, and the issues are expected to become worse in the future if the web goes fully HTTPS.
