HotSpot configuration

To prepare for the configuration, you need to get your license authorised via the licensing portal on the bintec elmeg website http://www.bintec-elmeg.com. You will then quickly be sent your personal access data.

First you need to enter a RADIUS server.

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) is a service that enables authentication and configuration information to be exchanged between your device and a RADIUS server.

  1. Go to System Management -> Remote Authentication -> RADIUS ->New.

System Management -> Remote Authentication -> RADIUS -> New

Proceed as follows to set up a RADIUS server:

  1. Select the Authentication Type Accounting . The RADIUS server is used for recording statistical call data.

  2. As Vendor Mode, select bintec HotSpot Server .

  3. For Server IP Address, enter the address of the central bintec HotSpot server, here e. g. 62.245.165.180 .

  4. You will find the RADIUS Secret in your access data.

  5. The Default User Password is the same as the RADIUS Secret.

  6. Set the Priority to 0   (top priority).

  7. Confirm with OK.

  1. Go to System Management -> Remote Authentication -> RADIUS ->New to set up the second RADIUS server.

  2. Select the Authentication Type Login Authentication .

  3. For Server IP Address, enter the address of the central bintec HotSpot server, here e. g. 62.245.165.180 .

  4. You will find the RADIUS Secret in your access data.

  5. The Default User Password is the same as the RADIUS Secret.

  6. Set the Priority to 0    (top priority).

  7. In the Advanced Settings menu, choose Non-authoritative for Policy.

  8. Confirm with OK.

The complete configuration looks like this:

System Management -> Remote Authentication -> RADIUS

In the next step, a HotSpot network will be set up.

  1. Go to Local Services -> Hotspot Gateway -> Hotspot Gateway -> New.

Local Services -> Hotspot Gateway -> Hotspot Gateway -> New

Proceed as follows:

  1. Select the Interface LAN_EN1-0 . This will later correspond with the SSID Guests .

  2. Under Domain at the HotSpot Server, specify the domain that you were sent with the access data, e. g. trainingfec_1.de .

  3. Enable the Walled Garden option.

  4. For Walled Network / Netmask, specify the IP address which your HotSpot guests are permitted to reach without loggin in, e. g. 62.146.53.196 and 255.255.255.255 .

  5. Under Walled Garden URL specify the URL that your HotSpot guests are to be able to see without logging in, e. g. http://www.bintec-elmeg.com . The Walled Garden URL must be accessible under the Walled Network address.

  6. Under Terms & Conditions, enter the URL at which you created your General Terms and Conditions website, e. g. http://www.bintec-elmeg.com . The URL must be accessible under the Walled Network address.
