236 Customizing the portal and user logon
Automatic redirection to internal sites
You can configure the portal to automatically redirect authenticated clients
to an internal site. Unlike the linkset autorun feature, automatic redirection
does not open a new browser window. Rather, it replaces the default
Home page in the internal frame on the portal browser page. As long as
the browser remains open, the session remains logged in.
The commands to configure automatic redirection require you to specify
the URL to which the clients will be redirected, prefixed by the portal
address (see “Configuring the portal display” (page 244)).
Examples of redirection URLs and links
Table 52 "Examples of redirection URLs and link text" (page 236) shows
example specifications for redirection URLs and associated links. In these
examples:
the portal address is nsnas.example.com
the address to which you want to redirect clients is inside.example.com
