Configuring the Service
Perform the following steps to configure Policy Manager for WebAuth-based Guest access.
1. Prepare the switch to pre-process WebAuth requests for the Policy Manager Dell WebAuth service.
Refer to your Network Access Device documentation to configure the switch such that it redirects HTTP
requests to the Dell Guest Portal , which captures username and password and optionally launches an agent that
returns posture data.
