Personalizing the Captive Portal Page
The following can be personalized on the default captive portal page:
l Captive portal background
l Page text
l Acceptance Use Policy
The background image and text should be visible to users with a browser window on a 1024 by 768 pixel
screen. The background should not clash if viewed on a much larger monitor. A good option is to have the
background image at 800 by 600 pixels, and set the background color to be compatible. The maximum image
size for the background can be around 960 by 720 pixels, as long as the image can be cropped at the bottom
and right edges. Leave space on the left side for the login box.
You can create your own web pages and install them in the controller for use with captive portal. See “Internal
Captive Portal on page265
