enabled on any port.
Specifying a portal server for Layer 3 portal authentication
Perform this task to specify portal server parameters for Layer 3 portal authentication, including the portal
server IP address, shared encryption key, server port, and the URL address for Web authentication.
According to the networking environment, you can configure a remote portal server or, if supported, a
local portal server as needed.
To configure a remote portal server, specify the IP address of the remote portal server.
To use the local portal server of the access device, specify the IP address of a Layer 3 interface on
the device as the portal server's IP address. The specified interface must be reachable to the client.
Follow these guidelines when you specify a portal server for Layer 3 authentication:
The specified parameters of a portal server can be modified or deleted only if the portal server is
not referenced on any interface.
For local portal server configuration, the keywords key, port, and url are usually not required and,
if configured, do not take effect.
When a local portal server is used, the re-DHCP portal authentication mode (redhcp) can be
configured but, if configured, does not take effect.
To make sure the device can send packets to the portal server in an MPLS VPN, specify the VPN
instance to which the portal server belongs when specifying the portal server on the device.
