Public/guest network access
Global access control settings
Note This option cannot be used if NAT is enabled on the Internet port.
Support applications that use
HTTP proxy: Enable this option to allow the service controller to support client stations
that use a proxy server for HTTP and HTTPS, without reconfiguration of the client
stations.
Ensure that client stations:
Do not use a proxy server on ports 21, 23, 25, 110, 443, 8080, or 8090. To support ports
8080 and 8090, change the port settings under Public access > Web server > Ports.
Use the same proxy server address and port number for both HTTP and HTTPS.
SMTP authentication: When the service controller redirects user SMTP traffic, the
server to which the traffic is redirected may need to authenticate the service controller.
Enable this option to allow the service controller to supply a username and password to
the server. You can define the username and password in the RADIUS account for the
service controller or for the user.
Location configuration
These values are returned to IPass clients as well sent in RADIUS authentication Access
Requests and Accounting Requests for all users authenticated by this service controller.
Location ID
Specify the WISPr location ID assigned to the service controller.
Location name
Specify the WISPr location name assigned to the service controller.
Display advertisements
When this option is enabled, it causes users to be redirected to an ad content page while they
are browsing.
The ads page can be either ads.asp or ads-frameset.asp, depending on the setting of Use
frames when presenting ads under Site options on the Public access > Web content
page.
Redirection occurs on TCP port 80.
Note Ad display can be suppressed on a per-user basis by setting the appropriate option in the
user’s account.
Enabling this feature can cause problems for user applications that expect to obtain
network access directly after logging in, instead of being redirected to an ad page.
Display advertisements every nnn sec
Specify the interval at which users are redirected to the ads page.
