User's Manual

The Enable guest access self-provisioning check box must be selected for self-provisioning to be available.
The Require HTTPS field, when enabled, redirects guests to an HTTPS connection for greater security.
The Service Not Available Message allows an HTML message to be displayed to visitors if self-provisioning
has been disabled. See "Smarty Template Syntax" on page 480 in the Reference chapter for details about the
template syntax you may use to format this message.
Click the Save Changes button after you have entered all the required data.
Captive Portal Integration
To start the visitor self-provisioning process, new visitor registration is performed by redirecting the visitor to
the URL specified on the Hotspot Preferences page; for example: https://guest.example.com/hotspot_
plan.php. The Hotspot Sign-Up page opens to the first page of the wizard, Choose Plan.
The hotspot_plan.php page accepts two parameters:
l The source parameter is the IP address of the customer.
l The destination parameter is the original URL the customer was attempting to access (that is, the
customer’s home page). This is used to automatically redirect the customer on successful completion of the
sign-up process.
For browsers without JavaScript, you may use the <noscript> tag to allow customers to sign up:
