Captive portal
-
Hello,
I'm on my last year on university and for my final project i'm looking forward doing a wi-fi authentication system integrated with my university's website portal. To be able to do this i need to create vouchers automatically but the problem is that i'm not good at programing , and I think that some php coding is needed to get this job done. I would like to know if somebody could help me with my project do someone know an API or script that solves my problem?

Hi,
No API, as you already figured out. If not, see for yourself Google pfSense API.
pfSense is a pretty open source project which means : you can change whatever you like.What I don't get : what were you doing on the university that they asked you to setup a captive portal with vouchers ?
Normally someone finishing his medical study won't be asked to put in place a captive portal …. that's madness (although accessible for kids starting at 12).Back in my days (middle of the 80's), I followed only these two directions : "software" and "hardware" and these 2 gave me access to the whole thing : from mainframes to that latest Basic one-liner. That changed ? ( ;) )
Like you won't be able to fly that plane if you never wanted to enter the cockpit (and read the manual, or, more recent, join Microsoft Flight simulator club).
