Captive portal is not compatible with squid (at least transparent) on the same node. You could have an upstream caching/filtering node with the portal node behind it though.

@ThePirat: Thank you very much Derelict, I'll try and let you know if it works Best, Cristian ps…yes, I have configured my pfsense two vlan yet such could you solve your problem.? If you've been able to solve what was the solution if you would be so kind. Regards.

@Gertjan: Your image shows that you used a Gateway ("GLOBAandPLDT") in one of your rules. Why ? There is something far more easier as vlan-tagging : use a separate interface (a second internal interface, also called OPT1) for your non trusted clients (the captive portal). Office devices go on the LAN interface. Thank you for the concern's we have a one interface for two service provider to prevent our server downtime, for the disconnect

@asistio04: is it possible to bypass the captive portal using a vpn on the phone or pc? VPN trafic is just a TCP or UDP stream, coming from an IP, going to another IP. Without the pfsense firewall (captive portal) being instructed to let it out, the IP of you device will be blocked. So, short answer : No.

@yaman.amin: I also intersted to know is there any special Firewall rules can I configure to get the best security features , in my acptive portal WLAN Network I decided to deploy Snort , kindly ask you if there is other packages or rules can man use to enhance security? thanks for feed back Snort will prevent this kind of event?

Hi, I tried to download the files from those links you provided, they are counted correctly. I am using 2.2.4.

It works great !! I thank you  :)

@Gertjan thank for your long explanation. And I'm glad to hear that our neighbor has the same shitty law. In our case the third member are renter in our house (Student flat). Normally we can trust them. But confidence is good, control is better.  ;) VPN was the first idea. I saw the all the problems from configuration to compatibility and our user don't have much experience in computing. So VPN is to complex. Setting up an VPN server is no option, because we are glad to have a stable server now. So never change a running system. ( I keep thin option in mind, but my primary aim is to login via the web interface) I noticed your judicial aspect. The pf-Sense should only protect the internet access owner. If a user get hacked, give the password to a friend or something else, than it is the problem of the user. We need to lists internal IP <-> web IP (collected by the firewall) and internal IP <-> user (collected by the CP). BTW to get access to the pf sense you have to login in our intranet over some AccessPoints which are protected by WPA2 password. – back to the problem My aim is to login via web interface to send an POST request via command line to server. @Gertjan PS : try using curl. That is what I had tried. (see the quote of my first post). But this doesn't work. curl -F ... Response is nothing, no request, no login. curl -- data ... The response is an new login form. no login. The POST-URL is copied in the redirect field. I think there is another security feature, which reject my POST requests.

Captive portal doesn't care. Physical, virtual, doesn't matter.

Hi, Magura, Please test the settings as described in this link: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=106119.0 thank you very much!

Thanks a lot Gertjan, actually i already  read your tutorial post in 2013 , before i start setting the certificates . but it seems that the procedure in startssl.com changed somehow , it is not exactly as you explained that time . for example when apply for a certifictate wrote , that you have first to write a PSK , then the CSR ,…. now startssl directly asks you to submit the csr directly ,that means you must prepare your csr and generate your private key alone using openssl for example , then you submit the csr . i got confused , that after you submit the csr , they offer you two options one of them  if you want to support the PKI system, if you choose it then startssl  will ask you to write a PSK (which PSK should i give , the one i used by openssl when i genertaed my private key , or a new PSK??) and then they will generate a private key. So i got confused which private key i have to use: the one i generated by openssl  or a different one ? taking in consideration my csr request has been signed by the private key i genertaed by openssl what i did exactly: 1- generate private key:#openssl genrsa -aes128 -out key.key 2048 2-generate csr request:#openssl req -new -key key.key -out certificate.csr 3- i copy the contect of certificate.csr to the startssl.com (csr field) 4- (should i choose PKI system or not in the bottom of the page ?) i got confused here 5- generate the certificate he sent me three certificates:root , intermediate and CA. i noticed in your images he classified the issuer as Root+intermediate+...  that is not the case in my certificates. another question when you generate the CSR which information you have to include: i just included my domain name and the Country is there anything else? i will send you some images tomorrow. if you access the startssl.com  now you will see what i mean. 6-  on Pfsense i applied under CAs leaf : first the root , second the intermediate: her there is an optional field if you want to paste the private key as well . again the question , which private key the one of openssl or the one of PKI in openssl? as you see there is some confused points need to be clarified .

@Drudge : reinstall from scratch (boot from a recent version like 2.2.6 - not a dead one 2.0.2 or even 2.1). Redo your settings. When activating the portal, do NOT use your own 'html' code, use the default. Activate first the local user Manager (build in pfSEnse) and add one or two users. Test that. Then hook up Radius, and test again. Then , and only then : use your own html login page (If you have one). I guess something goes wrong with the redirecting … Some left-overs in the ancient config settings (maybe) ?

You are right , sorry for that , just wanted to discuss it with captive portal experts as well :)
