Captive Portal Feature
Captive Portal Feature
The Metro Broadband Gateway has a captive portal feature. If your WAN link is lost, all URLs or web
addresses will be redirected to the Metro Broadband Gateway device web user interface. This is illustrated
in
Figure 19
.
Figure 19—
Captive Portal feature
If you attempt to access an Internet address, and your Internet connection status is “down”, you are directed
to the Metro Broadband Gateway Web Server page as shown, instead of a 404 Page Not Found display. This
shows you that the problem is your Internet connection rather than the page you are trying to address.
LAN connectivity, for example to printers and other computers, on your network, is still maintained even if
Internet connectivity is lost.
