Captive portal manual logout page address

Gertjan

Portal logout page :

The thing is : browser got smarter these days.
Cookies aren't stored or accisble by default any more.
Browser do NOT accept popup, pages (any more) .....

So, the logout page you push out when the user logs in doesn't get show up on the user's screen as a windows or tab where the user can logout.
And you can not control the users browser settings ...

When time is money : explain the user while he is logging in that the soft-timeout is set to a very low value, which means that without user activity, the user gets disconnected fast.
Also : inform the user that he should de activated his Wifi connection on his side when he is done using your resources. If not : his credit time will get used .... So, when the user disconnects, the idle (soft) time will handle everything for you without any coding.

Ok, i understand.

But there me be a very easy way to write a simple php page that directly log out the user who launches it. No pop up, no confirmation button.

http://mypfsense:8004/logout.php

Just a function that get the session id and kill the current session.

I tried to code something with the elements you gave, but it didn't work ...

You should :
Obtain user's IP and MAC (see /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php how to get the, it's easy.

Use this to get the session ID :

Use https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/fb249aefa378172d6c246e62d15a8da40d80c5b6/src/etc/inc/captiveportal.inc#L2834 to get the session entry.

$cpentry[5] should contain the session ID.

Now call https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/fb249aefa378172d6c246e62d15a8da40d80c5b6/src/etc/inc/captiveportal.inc#L1214 using this session ID.

This worked for me :

<?php

require_once("captiveportal.inc");
require_once("auth.inc");
require_once("functions.inc");

global $g, $config, $cpzone, $cpzoneid;

/* Are there any portals  ? */
if (is_array($config['captiveportal'])) {
	/* For every portal (cpzone), do */
	foreach ($config['captiveportal'] as $cpkey => $cp)
		/* Sanity check */
		if (is_array($config['captiveportal'][$cpkey])) 
			/* Is zone enabled ? */
			if (array_key_exists('enable', $config['captiveportal'][$cpkey])) {
				$cpzone = $cpkey;
				$cpzoneid = $cp['zoneid'];
				$client_ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
				$cpentry = array();
				$cpentry = captiveportal_isip_logged($client_ip);
				if ( array_key_exists(5, $cpentry) ) {
				captiveportal_disconnect_client($cpentry[5], 1, "USER LOGOUT");
				}
			}
	}
?>

~~Note : the $cpzone should be set to the actual captive portal zone instance name !~~
~~( I'll update this post later on so the code will scan over all active captive portal zone instances )~~

When I visited this /logout.php page, I was logged out.

edit : code updated.

@Gertjan

Have a good day

Gertjan

I just updated the code ^^

any tutorial process to input this code? or edit and add
thanks in advance ive got this issue with my client users for how many months.

Yep.

Place (create) it here : /usr/local/captiveportal
Call the file "logout.php".

Note : this is NOT a file you can upload into the pfSense Captive Pprtal's file manager !!

Now you can use
http://portal.mypfsense.tld:8004/logout.php
or
http://192.168.2.1:8004/logout.php

( if 192.168.2.1 is the IP address of the captive portal's interface - or your set "portal.mypfsense.tld" as the FQDN to this IP using the Resolver.
"8004" is just an example, your port number might be different. )

@Gertjan thank you,
im now test it before i deploy it to my exact pf serve,
great work and update.

update later after work.

btw only the logout.php can apply FQDN for the domain name

What do you mean ?

When I visited this /logout.php page, I was logged out.

So this code works great, thanks. I'm adding in a redirect at the end of the file - it works - but it takes around 20 seconds too load the login page - or any page

Any ideas on a workaround? - I assume the portal is interfering somehow.

<script>window.location.replace("http://example.com");</script>

edit: weird, it a happened a few times, restored a backup and it now works fine..

What are you talking about ?
What file ? The script from above ? That a massive "log everybody out" script file.

After throwing everybody out, why would you redirect yourself to http://example.com ? Why not the pfSense GUI ?

guntery

Huh? It logs out the user who goes to that page not all users.

the redirect goes to the splash page either way though right (it's an example), in this case I have 2 captive portals with differing IP's and 1 logout script so it was easier to use the domain redirect not the CP IP

I stand corrected.
Had to review the script and true, the caller gets logged out.
Sorry for the noise ^^
