Figure 6 Guest access when guest is self-provisioned
The guest logs on to the Network Access Server (NAS), which captures the guest and redirects them to a captive
portal login page. From the login page, guests without an account can browse to the guest self-registration
page, where the guest creates a new account. At the conclusion of the registration process, the guest is
automatically redirected to the NAS to log in.
The guest can print or download a receipt, or have the receipt information delivered by SMS or email.
The NAS performs authentication and authorization for the guest in W-ClearPass Guest. After authorization,
the guest is able to access the network.
See "Customizing Guest Self-Registration" on page 235 for details on creating and managing self-registration
pages.
Active Sessions Management
The RADIUS server maintains a list of active visitor sessions. If your NAS equipment has RFC 3576 support, the
RADIUS dynamic authorization extensions allow you to disconnect or modify an active session.
To view and manage active sessions for the RADIUS server, go to Guest > Active Sessions. The Active
Sessions list opens. You can use this list to modify, disconnect or reauthorize, or send SMS notifications for
active visitor sessions; manage multiple sessions; or customize the list to include additional fields.
l To view details for an active session, click the session’s row in the list, then click its Show Details link. The
form expands to include the Session Details view.
