Chapter 15 - Customizing SMS2000
Web Authentication with RADIUS
This chapter describes how to work with and customize web pages on the SMS2000
when using RADIUS authentication. You can obtain the original web pages, for use in
customizing, by contacting your Tut Systems representative, or you may extract them
using a web browser.
By default, a set of web pages are created on the SMS2000 and presented to the user
during authentication. These default pages can be left as is, or they can be customized for
a particular property or group. The customized pages can be loaded to the SMS2000 and
are presented in place of the default pages. This chapter describes:
• How to load customized pages to the SMS2000
• How to delete customized pages on the SMS2000
• How to customize pages for the SMS2000
Note:
When using the OCS, the entire user experience is customized through
the OCS, so you should not need to customize SMS2000 web pages. Instead, all
subscriber-visible web pages can be customized through the OCS administrator
interface–itself a web based application. SMS2000 web pages are customized
only when using the SMS2000 with a RADIUS server.
Loading and Deleting Customized Web
Pages
Initially, a default directory is created which stores the default set of web pages used by
the SMS2000 for authentication, as well as images and other files that make up the
default web pages. The default group (*) and any other group added to the SMS2000 will
use the same default set of pages for authentication. Customized pages can be loaded and
used in place of the default files. New files, such as image files, new web pages, and
subdirectories can also be loaded for a group.
Files For Groups
By default, the files you load are active for the default group, also called “*” (pronounced
“star”). If you are using a VLAN switch and would like to present different customized
web pages to different groups, you must associate ports with groups, and change the
default group using the set group command before loading the web pages. For more
information on groups, please see Chapter 10, “Service Creation using Groups and
Rules.”
Loading Web Pages or Files
After customizing the authentication files, they must be loaded to the SMS2000 using the
load web command. This loads a specific web page (html file) or image (.gif, .jpg, or
.png) file from an external web or ftp server which you specify.
