      First, I'm trying to use a captive portal for non-typical purposes here…  Without going into too much detail...

      I'm trying to setup a captive portal utilizing public IP's.  Clients that end up in the captive portal "network" should be able to contact my public DHCP servers.  Some may even already have a current lease.

      When one of these clients try to surf, they should get the portal page.

      I'm not worried about being able to continue past the portal page.  I just want to display a message to them directing them to call the support line.

      Would this just be a matter of adding the correct firewall rules on the interface that the captive portal is running on?
