Public/guest network access
Customizing the public access interface
Supporting PDAs
Users using PDAs that only support a single browser window will have difficulty using the
public access interface in its standard configuration.
Once a user logs in to the public access interface, two Web pages are sent to their browser:
the Welcome page and the Session page.
The Session page contains a logout button. Users who are unable to view this page will not be
able to log out.
To solve the problem, modify the Welcome page to include a logout button.
1. Create a folder called PDAusers on your Web sever.
2. See Public access examples on page 8-4. Copy public access sample files welcome.html
and goodbye.html into the PDAusers folder.
3. Edit welcome.html to include a logout link with the target:
http://service controller_name:port/goform/HtmlLogout.
For example:
http://wireless.mycompany.com:8080/goform/HtmlLogout.
Adds a warning to this page that tells PDA users to bookmark the Welcome page so that they
can logout.
4. Add the following entry to the RADIUS profile for all PDA users.
welcome-url=web_server_URL/PDAusers/welcome.html
