HotSpot rules is the major feature of the HotSpot revision 4
What are rules ?
Rules are defined by one or several networks.
A network can be a IP address (10.10.10.1 ) or a subnet ( 10.10.10.0/24) .
When a guest computer is connected to the HotSpot, Artica will try to retrieve the rule according the computer network.
All HotSpot settings and behavior are defined inside a rule.
In this case you can define how guest can be logged and what are the account policy based on IP addresses.
The first task is to create a rule.
Create a rule
On the HotSpot section, click on Rules tabs
- You can see in the table that the rule is explained and the SKIN column shows you the background color of the HotSpot web page.
- Click on the added rule
- Select Networks tab
- Add networks you want this rule to handle.
Now with this first rule, you can define the HotSpot behavior.
