Splash Page

FHDENIT — Tue, 26 Nov 2024 18:28:56 GMT

I have some devices that I prefer to be on a Guest network, but the devices can't show a splash page.

Of course I can whitelist them, but then they have full access and fw rules are bypassed.

Can I by API approve the splash for the device ?

Yes, you can use the endpoint I will list below to do that, but instead I would recommend making a Group Policy called BypassSplash or something similar, leave all the settings such as Firewall on Use Network Default, and just set the Splash setting to Bypass.

I don't have that option since I'm not using Meraki APs but a third-party.

What is doing the splash page? Meraki or third party solution?

No one have a solution to bypass SplashPage unless I whitelist/allow or are using WiFi from Meraki ?

The problem with allow is that you then also bypass Firewall rules.

If the devices can't handle a splash page, if your APs support it, can you set up an extra SSID-VLAN that enforces the firewall rules you want?
