What are my options for Terms & Conditions?

[CSCO11733516]

Hey Guys-

     I am currently working on a lab and simulating a scenario that I will have to implement into production in the future.  I am trying to setup a Guest SSID on a WLC (5508).  This Guest SSID is to display the a set of Terms & Conditions, which then a user is to accept and then they move forward onto having access to the guest network.

I am familiar with performing this step using WebAuth, but it seems like the T&C are extremely long.  The WebAuth page comes back with a "text exceeded limitation", on top of that I do notice that I would have to have a username and password.

Is there a feature in the WLC that would allow this scenario to work?  Or will I have to build or download a customized WebAuth page?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Hi Ken

When this happens I normally persuade the customer to add a link to where the terms can be found and they host it on a web server. Saves the hassle of a "external" web server.

George-

Thanks for the quick response.

That makes perfect sense, but what about the "approve" option?  Is there a way to have an "approve" button or something instead of having the user provide any sort of credential?

Yes of course.

Are you using one of the sample web pages downloaded from Cisco.com ? Sounds like you have the web page example with the email or user password fields .. There is a HTML with a accept button. That is the one you would want to use with web pass through on the wlc ..

Btw if you want to use the generic Cisco page and add the link you can do that as well. I'll send u a few screen shots in a minute ..

Ah i see!  Negative.  I am currently using the default WebAuth Page (cisco logo with username/password).

Where do I find these webpages if I am seraching the Cisco Download Page?

[George Stefanick]

If you like to continue to the use the default page and use a simple accept you can do that .. see attached pixs

George-

I can't thank you enough.  I just finished the download of the bundle.  I'll read the ReadMe and Chapter in the configuration guide pertaining to this as well.

QQ though, I see all of the directories here in the .zip I downloaded.  Do I essentially just upload these to the WLC?

[CSCO11733516]

ah nevermind.  i vaugley glanced over the ReadMe file located within the .zip.  I can figure this out!

Thanks again!!
