Guest Authentication

The Guest Authentication option is specifically designed to provide users a quick and convenient way to access the network simply by entering a string of text as defined by the network administrator on the login page. This string of text can be, for example, user's email or reservation number. Thus, this authentication option does not technically involve an account database or actual authentication. However, E-mail Verification can be configured so that users have to provide a valid E-mail address in order to activate their account.

Furthermore, usage constraints may be configured to control network usage of users authenticated by this authentication option.

Group: the Group that the clients will be assigned to after successful login, which will have a Policy profile mapping to the specific Service Zone applied
Guest Information: includes account email and answers to the questionnaire (if enabled), which can be viewed and downloaded for purposes such as network monitoring, data analysis or marketing. Entries will not be cleared automatically, but an email notification can be sent when there are 1000 entries remaining (11000/12000, maximum is 12000 entries)

- Download: allows administrators to download guest information

- Delete All: allows administrators to delete all the stored data; administrators can delete all entries

after export to keep the list up-to-date.

Questionnaire: provides administrators an option to show questions on the login page, data collected from the questionnaire can be viewed in Guest Information
Guest Access Time: allows administrators to define a usage time constraint based on MAC addresses

- Unlimited: there is no limitation about the allowance usage time

- 1 Day Access: clients are enforced with a usage time constraint

- Multi-Day Access: clients are enforced with a usage time constraint

Quota: the permitted duration and volume for each client
Reactivation (1 Day Access only): the time period after a session expires that the clients have to wait before they can request a new session
Access Limit (1 Day Access only): how many times a device can request for a free account per day
Email Verification: can be enabled to ensure that the entered email is a valid email address. Clients have to activate their account within the activation time to extend their usage time by clicking a link in the mail sent by the mail server. Note that the activation is merely a timer and does not add to the account's Quota
SMTP Server Settings: to assign SMTP server for sending the mail for redeem clients. This SMTP is shared with Guest Email Verification. Please refer to "SMTP Setting paragraph below". Taking Gmail as SMTP server, the configurations are

- SMTP server address: smtp.gmail.com

- SMTP port: 465

- Encryption: SSL

- Authentication: Login: Account Name: admin's Gmail email address

- Authentication: Login: Password: admin's Gmail email's password

- Sender Email Address: admin's Gmail email address

Sender Name: the Sender Name displayed in the client mail box.
Activation Email Subject: customizable email subject displays in the client mail box
Activation Email Content: customizable email content displays in the client mail box (max. 2000 characters)
Activation Link: the name with hyperlink to redeem the account in the client email content
Guest Quota List: displays how many allowances are remaining for the access-limited Guest accounts by MAC address and Email Address. (It would be automatically refreshed daily at the midnight, and the oldest entries are removed when reaching maximum).
Email Denial List: checks the email domains for login permission, if prevention of junk mailboxes is desired

The Sender Name, Email Subject, and Email Content (max. 2000 characters) are all customizable as soon as the SMTP server is ready. SMTP server configuration is done by clicking the "Assign SMTP Server" button.

SMTP Settings

Allows the configuration of 5 recipient E-mail addresses and necessary mail server settings where various user related logs will be sent to.

SMTP Server: enter the IP address of the sender's SMTP server.
SMTP Port: the port number is 25 by default. Administrator can specify it to be another port number if the SMTP server runs SMTP over SSL.
Encryption: enable this option if your SMTP server runs SMTP over TLS or SSL.
Authentication: the system provides four authentication methods, Plain, Login, CRAM-MD5 and NTLMv1, or None to use none of the above. Depending on which authentication method is selected, enter the Account Name, Password and Domain.

- Plain is a standardized authentication mechanism that uses UNIX login and password.

- CRAM-MD5 is a standardized authentication mechanism. This is used by Pegasus although the

method to be used cannot be configured.

- Login is a Microsoft's proprietary mechanism and uses UNIX login and password. Outlook and

Outlook express use Login as default, although they can be set to use NTLMv1. It is used by

Pegasus although the method to be used cannot be configured.

- NTLMv1 is a Microsoft's proprietary mechanism that is not currently available for general use.

Sender E-mail Address: the e-mail address of the administrator in charge of the monitoring. This will show up as the sender's e-mail address.
Receiver E-mail Address (1 ~ 5): up to 5 E-mail addresses can be set up here to receive notifications.
