Captive portal on zone 0 possible?
-
So I checked out https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/2.2_New_Features_and_Changes#Captive_Portal and found that the port for the Captive Portal is made up of a zone id (now). Instead of port 8000 as before the captive portal redirects to a page on port 8002 now (in my 2.2 installation).
Why is my default zone ID 2? And why is it not ID 0 for instance? Where does the zone ID come from anyway? I don’t seem to be able to enter this ID anywhere in the configuration, right?
For sake of user’s saved login credentials I would prefer to have my single existing zone use ID 0 so the login page is still to be found on port 8000 as before. Is this possible, if so how?
Thank you!

No. No such thing implemented.

Is this possible, if so how?"Login credentials" are not related to "using port x to authenticate" - "what is the zone ID (because many can exist)".
So, in case of doubt, just wipe all portal settings.
(go even to ssh, start viconfig - wipe everything between <captiveportal>and</captiveportal> , save back, reboot pfsense and set up portal up again.
(or export config - edit file with good editor like notepad++, and import back in - and then setup your portal again.)The fact that it uses a port like 8001, or 8002 (https) or whatever is just a "behind the screen pfSense" thing.
