7.4 Wifidog
The feature, Wifidog, is available on outdoor Atom CAT6/7/15 CPEs and is used to build wireless hotspots.
The feature works in cooperation with a remote authentication server. When Wifidog is enabled, Wi-Fi
devices such as guest users will have to be authenticated through the remote authentication server.
NOTE 1: The feature requires a connection to an authentication server to function.
NOTE 2: Wifidog is not recommended for Baicells CPEs using Power over Ethernet (PoE).
You can create a whitelist to identify which website addresses or URLs users are allowed to reach. You can
also limit the number of times that a user attempts to log in within a configured time period before failure
to authenticate times out. These settings help to avoid unauthorized use of the network.
In the GUI, go to
Network > Wifidog
(Figure 32). Notice the three panes in the
Wifidog Settings
window -
Basic Settings
,
Whitelist
, and
Advanced Settings
. In the
Basic Settings
pane, click on the checkbox next to
Enable
to initiate Wifidog, and enter the
AP code
and the
Authentication Server Address
. If you don’t want
to create a whitelist or configure advanced settings, then click on
Apply
. Otherwise, continue to the
additional procedures for these settings before clicking on
Apply
.
In the
Whitelist
pane you can add URL addresses to be whitelisted – that is, allowed – without the user
having to authenticate. Separate each URL with a comma (,). For the
Free certification equipment
field,
enter the hotspot users' device MAC addresses. Use a comma (,) to separate each one. If you don’t want
to configure advanced settings, then click on
Apply
. Otherwise, continue to the additional procedures for
these settings before clicking on
Apply
.
In the
Advanced Settings
pane, if you want all hotspot users to use the same authentication server and
login requirements, enter the server path information and set the
Check interval
field (maximum time, in
seconds), for logging in and the
Client timed out
field (maximum amount of time before failure to
authenticate times out, in minutes). Click on
Apply
.
