Hello,
we are looking for advices on the deployment of the Packetfence captive
portal for a Unifi AP-based architecture. Currently, we have multiple
physical locations that should provide guest access through the captive
portal of Packetfence.
Those locations have a unique VLAN, called guest, of ID 100. On each
site, the DHCP server for that VLAN is a Windows Server with a given
subnet for each (10.1.0.0/24, 10.1.1.0/24 and so on). Packetfence
machines are offsite and do not have a network interface on those VLANs.
Packets from those VLANs are routed (layer 3) to the Packetfence for
captive portal access.
The solution we have agreed on for now is the following : we set things
up for using WebAuth, via Unifi external portal pointing to the
Packetfence captive portal. We find it difficult to configure and
experience some difficulties making it work. We are conscious that,
ideally, one would use RADIUS assigned-VLANs for Unifi as it simplifies
guest authorization. However, for now, we cannot afford adding a
registration VLAN.
Are you aware of any other solution that might permit captive portal
guest authorization without providing a registration VLAN?
Thanks for your kind support,
Mathieu Valois
