Allow only a single connection with a ticket of a captive portal

Hi, I am running a captive portal for a hotel, using a Fortigate100D as a hub FortiAP 221B, and works very well, but I have a problem, the tiket generated, allowing the connection of multiple machines at the same time, and need is to allow the connection to one machine, with one tiket generated. I appreciate your attention, and I hope you can help me

This is only the first half of the option you have to set. Add
config user group
 edit <name of your guestuser group>
 set auth-concurrent-value 1
The description is:
Set the number of concurrent logins permitted from the same IP address. Range 1 to 100. 0 means no limit. This field is available if auth-concurrentoverride is enabled.
What makes me wonder is the part talking about " from the same IP address" . Typically, a hotel guest will bring in 2+ devices which connect on the open WLAN, each receiving a unique IP address from the DHCP pool. That would mean that this option will have no effect. I' m afraid you will have to try it out yourself.

Hi all the docu " from the same ip" is from my point of view a docu error. Shame on Forti -if it is so- specially because this error is since initial release of CLI 5.0 GA. I had the same request from a customer for two days and tested by myself. It works.....I asked a Forti contact regarding the error and he told me " yes, from his point of view it is a error" . not really funny Andrea

I' m late to this topic. I don' t know the ticket number offhand detailing your discussion with TAC, but suggest to them to bring it up with the documentation department. Their office is 5 minutes' drive away from mine, and they often come by to gather input on new documents, and changes to existing ones. If you can' t reach out to them through the ticket, post (or PM me with) a quick summary here, and I can email them directly. Indicate the document and page number, the problematic text, and how it should have read to be accurate or more clear.

Regards, Chris McMullan Fortinet Ottawa

I will contact the documentation team, with references and all. Done.
