FSSO Polling and authentication portal.

[CBaezLe]

Hi everyone.

I have a FortiWifi 90D currently running the IOS 5.2.3 and I'm having some issues with the Authentication portal after a user login time's out or if the computer is not part of the domain. In the 5.0.X the user had to re-authenticate in a editable portal (Captive Portal), but now when you try to access the internet there's no portal and nothing happens.

Is there a new config that I'm not aware of?

Thank you in advance.

basically said 5.2 is a bit new from authentication point of view and few things changed from 5.0

better check What's new on docs.fortinet.com

in details, captive portal is not implicitly listening once you make identity-based policy and you need to activate it on respective interface. If you want to pass the portal for some destinations then there is exemption list configurable for that purpose. Both in interface config on FortiGate GUI.
