NAME

pf::Switch::Xirrus::AP_http

SYNOPSIS

The pf::Switch::Xirrus::AP_http module implements an object oriented interface to manage the external captive portal on Xirrus access points

STATUS

Developed and tested on XR4430 running 6.4.1

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

Cannot use the access point behind a NAT gateway

Since the access point is not sending the IP address of the device in the URL parameters, the access point and PacketFence cannot be separated by a NAT gateway. This module uses the remote IP in the HTTP request to determine the IP of the client.

SUBROUTINES

parseUrl

This is called when we receive a http request from the device and return specific attributes:

client mac address SSID client ip address redirect url grant url status code

returnRadiusAccessAccept

Prepares the RADIUS Access-Accept reponse for the network device.

Overriding the default implementation for the external captive portal
