SmartZone 100 Guest Portal

Question

Hello,
   I'm looking for solutions to create a captive portal for my guest network so that people can register for temporary internet access while on my school sites. From what I've been reading this is achievable by creating a portal on a separate web server and then integrating into my SmartZone 100. I have, unfortunately, been completely unsuccessful in finding any type of guides or walkthroughs for this setup. Do they exist? Is this still possible?

Hi Vincent, Apologies for the delay in responding.Yes, to confirm; you will need a separate solution to provide full guest self-registration captive portal on SmartZone.Ideally Ruckus CloudPath would be utilised for this functionality:  https://www.ruckuswireless.com/products/software-and-saas/cloudpathBest,Darrel.

Thank you, Darrel. To confirm - I will need a 3rd party Captive Portal to allow guest registration, correct? I am only seeing an option for a pre-created guest pass natively on the SmartZone.
