Configuring Custom Web-Auth Pages

You can design your own Web-Auth pages and either store them on an external server

or upload them to the Wireless Edge Services zl Module’s flash memory (advanced

configuration). The custom Web-Auth pages must include a login page, a welcome

page, and a failed page. However, in addition to those pages, you can configure links

to as many other pages as you desire.

To enable Web-Auth support, you must incorporate specific CGI code on both the

■ Login page—You must include CGI code that allows users to enter their login

credentials and then send these credentials to the Wireless Edge Services zl

Module. The module, in turn, submits this information to the RADIUS server.

■ Welcome page—You must include CGI code that disconnects the user’s station

from your company’s network services and displays the login page again.

You do not need to include any specific CGI commands on the failed page; however,

you might want to include a link back to the login page, as the default failed page does.
