Configuring Web redirect

About Web redirect

Web redirect is a simplified portal feature. With Web redirect, a user does not perform portal authentication but is directly redirected to the specified URL on the first Web access attempt in a browser. After the specified redirect interval, the user is redirected from the visiting website to the specified URL again.

Web redirect can provide ISPs with extended services. For example, the ISPs can place advertisements and publish information on the redirected webpage.

Restrictions and guidelines

The Web redirect feature takes effect only on HTTP packets that use the default port number 80.

Web redirect does not work when both Web redirect and portal authentication are enabled.
