Captive Portal Statistics

Controller Statistics

A captive portal redirects an HTTP client to a Web page (usually for authentication purposes) before
authenticating for Internet access. A captive portal turns a Web browser into an authenticator. This
is done by intercepting packets (regardless of the address or port) until the user opens a browser
and attempts to access the Internet. At that time, the browser is redirected to a Web page requiring
authentication.

To view the controller or service platform captive portal statistics:

1. Select the Statistics tab from the Web UI.
