Unauthorized Users - web authentication

Question

Hi!

We use web authentication/captive portal for our Employee and Guest WLANs.

How long does an unauthorized device stay connected to the AP if it hasn't successfully authenticated via web?

Is there a setting to automatically disconnect a device if it hasn't authenticated after, say five minutes?

unknown · Answer

Does this timeout apply equally to the authorized and not authorized devices?

"Inactivity Timeout" ,   the last option under Advanced-options for WLAN should help to disconnect the idle device after certain minutes . You can select the number in minutes. ( 1 - 500 ) . Hope this helps.
