Reverse captive portal, kidding?
-
I can't work it out. Tell me when I'm wrong.
I expect the reverse captive portal, enabled on the wan interface, a service to allow users from the internet to authenticate and get acces to the network, based on firewall rules.
Am I correct? Why do I not get the option to choose the wan interface when enabeling captive portal then.When I am wrong, this is a feature I am really interested in.

It appears that option got clobbered when we sync'd the captive portal back against m0n0wall to fix a few other issues.
I'll take a look and see if we can get the feature back

I aprreciate your swift answer, and your good work on pfsense.
Good to know the feature will return.Will it do as I statd above: give remote users acces after authentication?
-
It should, but I haven't tested this in a long while.
Not sure this will make it into 1.0. It'll most likely be a 1.1 feature.

Hi, I just installed a fresh 1.2 RC 2, embedded. I don't see the WAN option on the Captive Portal page. I really, really need reverse captive portal for my setup.
Is there a different version I can "upgrade" to that still has reverse captive portal? Do I need to get on paid support to get this working?
Thanks,

Paid support is for the features that are present already in pfS. This feature is not present as of yet.
