Users Hotspot with Captiveportal
-
Hi Experts,
I am currently using captive portal to allow my user to get access to internet by adding their MAC addresses.
Now i need to configure users hotspot as well in parallel to captive portal. My purpose is that i may be able to add users in captive portal and can create any user through hot spot as well.
please guide how can I implement that?

Hi.
Why should you even bother with "user hospots" when you use the Captive Portal ?
What do you mean by ""user hospots" ?Experts will : disable everything in the Wifi AP (your hostspot ?) - so, NO wireless security … NO DHCP, no firewall (except maybe some rules to protect the AP itself).

I mean to say that I just create some of the User with their login ID and password to get access to internet and I am using captive portal as well.

It's the other way around.
If you want to control or limit "Internet" access, you enable the Captive Portal.
Then you spread out user credentials like vouchers or login codes / passwords. -
How can I do that can you please let me know the procedure or share the link where from I can get help?
