Question about Cisco WLC 9800CL - Guest Network Access Portal

[madaraboss94]

Hey everyone,

I had a question about the Cisco WLC 9800CL. We are migrating over from using a Verizon provided MIST system. The MIST system uses a guest portal that requires the user to type in their full name, their email address, their company name, and the email address of someone from our company who will grant them access.

Our internal users then receives an email asking them if they wish to grant this guest user access. Does the WLC do anything like this? I know there is a some basic TOS page and you hit accept or deny. But is there anyway we can create a guest portal like the MIST one that requires approval from an internal users. Any info would be greatly appreciated

WLC on it's own cannot provide you the solution you are looking for. You need to associate it to a AAA. Clearpass has this functionality what you are looking for and not sure but ISE may have this functionality too.

You can create Self registered Guest portal in ISE.  Configure ISE Self Registered Guest Portal - Cisco

If the Require guests to be approved option is selected under Registration Form Settings, then the account created by the guest must be approved by a sponsor. This feature can use email in order to deliver a notification to the sponsor (for guest account approval)
