          It's a design limitation currently. Unless you have a transparent squid in front of the WAN of the CP enabled interface it won't work I think.

            Ok, how do i understand this now…

            Captive portal does not work anyway with squid transparent installed... ?

            I have squid installed and it works, BUT:

            Only IP-Filtering works, no MAC-Filtering and I do NOT see the auth page nor am I redirected to it.

            I'm using CP with WLAN ATH0 Atheros Chipset...

            Any ideas or normal behaviour thet MAC auth dows not work and redirect does not occur with squid ?

              hi majedalanni

              i have the following setup and every thing works fine with me since i started using pfsense with all previous versions untill 1.2:

              squid = transparent

              cp:
              enable captive portal: checked
              interface: lan
              disable concurrent logins: checked
              local user manager: selected

              all done

              hadi57

                I've had success using it in this manner as well just to confirm.

                  The problem I am having is with CP and squid trans. ON

                  any addresses set for unauth access, they will  return a squid error unless you are authenticated

                  thanks

                    I'm now using CP & transparent squid together.  Actually squid is bound to two different interfaces on my box and it still works great.

                        hi

                        all applications are working with my clients, my setup is as follows:

                        squid page general settings:
                        proxy interface: lan
                        allow users on interface: checked
                        transparent proxy: checked
                        enabled logging: checked, "useful for squid report"

                        squid cache management:
                        keep all with default values and modify as per your computer specifications
                        enabled offline mode: checked

                        captive portal:
                        enable captive portal checked
                        interface: lan
                        idel timeout: 10 minutes
                        concurrent user logins: checked
                        authentication: local user manger "make sure you add users

                        all done

                        all applications should be working with your clients

                        good luck
