BYOD features
When BYOD-redirect is enabled on a VLAN, the BYOD feature intercepts HTTP traffic and blocks all other
traffic for which free rules are not enabled. Most BYOD-redirect implementation is platform independent,
except installing free rules to mitigate risks.
Communication between clients and the IMC server is tunneled by the edge switch:
1. A client request is read by the HTTP task.
2. The HTTP task always redirects, after embedding client IP addresses, a URL trying to access the redirected
URL.
