<a href="/auth/logout.html"> Click to Logout </a>

</body>

</html>

If you wish your users to be able to logout using this pop-up box, then you must include a reference to

/auth/logout.html Once a user accesses this URL then the controller will log them out. It is easiest to simply edit

the above HTML to suit your users and then upload the resulting file to the controller using the WebUI under

Configuration > Management > Captive Portal > Upload custom pages and choose "content” as the

page type.

Once you have completed your HTML, then you must get the clients to create the pop-up box once they have

logged into the controller. This is done by inserting the following code into your welcome page text and re-

uploading the welcome page text to your controller.

Common things to change:

l URL: set the URL to be the name of the pop-up HTML file that you created and uploaded. This should be

preceded by "/upload/".

l Width: set w to be the required width of the pop-up box.

l Height: set h to be the required height of the pop-up box.

l Title: set the second parameter in the window.open command to be the title of the pop-up box. Be sure to

include the quotes as shown:

var url="/upload/popup.html";

var w=210;

var h=80;

var x=window.screen.width - w - 20;

var y=window.screen.height - h - 60;

window.open(url, 'logout',

"toolbar=no,location=no,width="+w+",height="+h+",top="+y+",left="+x+",screenX="+x+",screenY

="+y);

</script>

Customizing the Logged Out Box

In order to customize the Logged Out box, you must first customize your Welcome page and also your Pop-Up

box. To customize the message that occurs after you have logged out then you need to replace the URL that

the pop-up box will access in order to log out with your own HTML file.

First you must write the HTML web page that will actually log out the user and will also display page that you

wish. An example page is shown below. The key part that must be included is the <iframe>..</iframe> section.

This is the part of the HTML that actually does the user logging out. The logout is always performed by the

client accessing the /auth/logout.html file on the controller and so it is hidden in the html page here in order to

get the client to access this page and for the controller to update its authentication status. If a client does not

support the iframe tag, then the text between the <iframe> and the </iframe> is used. This is simply a 0 pixel

sized image file that references /auth/logout.html. Either method should allow the client to logout from the

controller.

Everything else can be customized.

<html>

width=0 height=0></iframe>

You have now logged out.</font></P>
