Configuring Web-Auth to an External Web Server
The Wireless Edge Services zl Module can implement Web-Auth using pages stored
on an external Web server. While you can link as many pages together as you want,
the fundamental Web-Auth process still relies on three basic pages: the login page,
the welcome page, and the failed page. You map these pages to the URL of the
corresponding page on the external Web server. For example, if you map www.Com-
panyXYZ.com/success.html to the welcome page, the module directs successfully
authenticated users to this page.
To configure Web-Auth to an external Web server, complete these steps:
1. Create at least three Web pages (one each for the login, welcome, and failed
pages) and load them on your external server. The Web pages can be as simple
or complex as you want, but they must include certain commands that are
described in “Configuring Custom Web-Auth Pages” on page 5-35.
2. Complete the steps described in “Configuring Web-Auth” on page 5-10.
3. You should be on the Web-Auth screen for the WLAN. Select External from the
drop-down menu at the top of the screen. (See Figure 5-18.)
