Table 233: CP Activation and Activity Status
Field
Description
Operational Status
Indicates whether the captive portal is enabled or disabled.
Disable Reason
If the captive portal is disabled, then this field indicates the reason. The portal instance
may be disabled for the following reasons:
• None - CP is enabled.
• Administratively Disabled
• RADIUS Authentication mode enabled, but RADIUS server is not defined.
• Not associated with any interfaces.
• The associated interfaces do not exist or do not support the CP capability.
Blocked Status
Indicates whether authentication attempts to the captive portal are currently blocked.
Use the
Block
and
Unblock
buttons to control the blocked status. If the CP is blocked,
users cannot gain access to the network through the CP. Use this function to temporarily
protect the network during unexpected events, such as denial of service attacks.
Block
and
Unblock
are only available when the CP operational status is Enabled. The
blocked status is an operational parameter and does not persist across switch reboot
even if the switch configuration is saved before a reboot.
Authenticated
Users
Shows the number of users that successfully authenticated to this captive portal and are
currently using the portal.
