Thanks for replaying, and sorry for the late response.
From your answer, it seems PF isn't the right solution for my environment. It's a great NAC solution. Hence it is required to be involved in the local DHCP/DNS data flow. I need a: 1) centralized (remote) 2) multivendor captive portal 3) with the ability to provide an "authentication source filter" base profiling to be able to treat my subscribers (radius PSK) and guests (open) differently while assigning them to separate VLANs (radius dynamic VLANs). If you have any recommendations, I'd love to hear from you.

As you know, the first thing a system knows about a device it's its MAC address (layer 2). But the portal is at layer 7 (http) and the lowest layer http server can know is layer 3 (IP). So PacketFence need to make a match between MAC and IP, and DHCP ACK can give this mapping. And of course, when the device opens the portal, it must present with the same IP address as in the mapping (the PacketFence database). If you can send this mapping to the internal database of PacketFence for each device through API, direct insert in DB, or whatever it can do the job, you can stop DHCP daemons. But it's out of my scope of knowledge, perhaps Inverse/Akamai dev can give you more info about doing it. As reminder, in PacketFence, the registration VLAN is there to isolate new devices to have access to any network resources while the device is not registered. And PacketFence is, initially, the dhcp and dns server for this VLAN. So even, in out-of-band installation, PacketFence has a direct link with the network. And if you want to respect this behavior, your external registration VLAN should also use PacketFence as DNS server, or to have a DNS server making the same job as PacketFence do: resolve every DNS request to the IP of the (PacketFence) portal.

Each site has its DHCP server, and the guest's clients reach it via broadcast or relay, depending on the site size. I don't understand why the Captive portal needs to see all DHCP ACKs, as this is an out-of-band deployment. I have many stand-alone sites, with a DHCP server on each (using the same IP Prefix for the guest's network), and I plan to have the portal installed in AWS (now it's on a private "DC"). I understand PF is a NAC solution, not just a Captive portal. Can I disable the DHCP demon to eliminate this requirement? I'm trying the PF solution to have a multi-vendor solution and, in the future, to use different connection profiles on the same portal guest for non-registered clients without a vlan assignment and a radius-based auth for registered clients with a vlan assignment. Hopefully, this is doable. -----Original Message----- From: Bénoni Delfosse <ben...@uniwan.be> Sent: Thursday, 15 December 2022 18:39 To: packetfence-users@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Ahiya Zadok <ah...@younity.io> Subject: RE: [PacketFence-users] WiFi captive portal users get "Your computer was not found in the PacketFence database" error Hi Ahiya, I had the same issue as you, but for version 11. In a same schema of deployment. I suppose you use an external DHCP server for your registration VLAN? If so, try to use the routing network and a DHCP-relay or helper. Or, probably more difficult, send the DHCPACK, from your DHCP server, to the packetfence DHCP daemon. In the case of a DHCP-relay, don't forget to activate the 'Force Listener update on DHCPACK' option under the 'Network Settings' in the 'Network Configuration' menu, otherwise the same error message will happen. And be aware that the DHCP-relay must relay all DHCP frames in the correct order to the DHCP daemon of packetfence (normally the dhcp-relay managed it correctly). Hope it help.

I have a PF server (ZEN v12.1.0) and an Unifi controller (V6.5.55). Both servers are installed remotely from the actual site (APs and clients). And, of course, this is an out-of-band wireless-web-auth setup. All PF/Unifi controllers/WAPs/clients are behind NAT (I wonder if this architecture is supported?). All configurations are according to the online guides. When a client tries to access the guest WLAN, its redirected to the portal (my PF server) but gets the below error message: "Your computer was not found in the PacketFence database. Please reboot to solve this issue." I did run the "/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd pfmon ubiquiti_ap_mac_to_ip" command, but when running "/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd cache switch_distributed list" I get no output. when I run "/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd cache switch_distributed dump Ubiquiti-68:d7:9a:16:07:2a" i get this output “$VAR1 = undef;” I notice that the "allowed_device_oui.txt" contain oui only of gaming consoles, is this ok?
