Configuring External Captive Portal Authentication Using ClearPass Guest
You can configure SCALANCE W to point to ClearPass Guest as an external captive portal
server. With this configuration, the user authentication is performed by matching a string in
the server response and that in the RADIUS server (either ClearPass Guest or a different
RADIUS server).
