We have a 5508 WLC where we have an SSID specifically for guest internet access. I want to create a splash page so that users hit the page before accessing the internet, but I don't need to do any authentication. Everything I can find on the product configuration guide says you can do web passthrough, but we can't do layer 2 authentication at the same time (layer 2 with a PSK is preferred).
Is there something I can set up where users associate to the SSID with a pre-shared key, reach the splash page (with no authentication required), click a box or provide an email address on this page, and then get access to the internet?
Thanks!

Thanks, Scott. Is that generally a best practice or will it technically not work to have a PSK and a splash page at the same time?
Our goal is really to log users that connect to the SSID so we know when they got in, when they disconnected, etc.

Hi. We are attempting to do the same thing. We would like to have a splash page that shows an Acceptable Use Policy and then allow them to connect to the Guest network. Connecting would happen via PSK (which we would provide). We don't want any authentication to happen.
@Scott Fella I know you said it's not recommended to do this, but is it possible?
