FortiGate Next Generation Firewall utilizes purpose-built security processors and threat intelligence security services from FortiGuard labs to deliver top-rated protection and high performance, including encrypted traffic.
This article describes the behavior of the captive portal on FortiGate when the post-authentication redirect URL is removed. This article also explains what happens after a user successfully logs in and how to configure the captive portal to redirect users to the original webpage the users were trying to access.
Scope
FortiGate.
Solution
If the setting 'redirect-url' is configured in a firewall policy, the user's browser will be redirected to the configured URL after authentication succeeds.
To remove the post-authentication redirect URL for the captive portal on FortiGate, remove the set redirect-url configuration. After a user successfully logs in, the user will be redirected to the original webpage that the user was trying to access before the captive portal appeared.
config firewall policy
edit <id>
unset redirect-url
end
By default, FortiOS will not prompt the built-in post-authentication replacement message to the user after authentication succeeds.
