Web-based Access Control (WAC)
Web-based Authentication Login is a feature designed to authenticate a user when the user is trying to access the
Internet via the Switch. The authentication process uses the HTTP protocol. The Switch enters the authenticating
stage when users attempt to browse Web pages (e.g., http://www.dlink.com) through a Web browser. When the
Switch detects HTTP packets and this port is un-authenticated, the Switch will launch a pop-up user name and
password window to query users. Users are not able to access the Internet until the authentication process is passed.
The Switch can be the authentication server itself and do the authentication based on a local database, or be a
RADIUS client and perform the authentication process via the RADIUS protocol with a remote RADIUS server. The
client user initiates the authentication process of WAC by attempting to gain Web access.
D-Link’s implementation of WAC uses a virtual IP that is exclusively used by the WAC function and is not known by
any other modules of the Switch. In fact, to avoid affecting a Switch’s other features, WAC will only use a virtual IP
