External Captive Portal Redirect Error

 

Hello,

I'm trying to implement an external captive portal. For this, I designed a React frontend and I'm using a RESTful service to send accessRequest and CoA requests over RADIUS on the firewall. I created a dedicated VLAN for the guest network and configured the external captive portal through Network > Interfaces. I also set up FreeRADIUS and performed connectivity and authentication tests, all of which worked smoothly as described in the documentation.

After completing these steps, I connected to the Wi-Fi network with my mobile phone and obtained an IP address, but instead of being redirected to the captive portal login page, I was taken directly to the company’s homepage. To resolve this issue, I tried moving all the captive portal pages to the public cloud. I even created some static HTML pages to test the redirection, but unfortunately, I haven’t made any progress yet.
