Body
Classic Hotspot Walled garden allows to restrict the domains that are visible by Wi-Fi clients in Guest Access networks, Captive Portal / Splash Page applications.

NOTE:
This restriction is applied BEFORE client authentication.


These are the instructions to configure the walled garden if you are using an external splash page.

After creating an SSID, click on the "Wireless Security" tab, select "Captive portal with Radius" or "Captive Portal without Radius"


How to configure the Walled Garden


Specify each element (domain) of the Walled Garden as in the following:
 
  • the hostname MUST NOT contain any "HTTP://" or "HTTPS://" string.

e.g. instead of "http://aaa.domain.com"
you should write "aaa.domain.com​"  (without the quotes)
 
  • to include more than one domain with one single line. please use the "*" char (wildcard)

​e.g. instead of writing
aaa.domain.com
bbb.domain.com
ccc.domain.com
you should just write "*.domain.com" (without the quotes)
 

NOTE:
it's possible to include IP addresses in the walled garden
e.g. 143.12.44.134

NOTE: 
the hostname related to the Splash Page is automatically included in the Walled Garden list, so it's not required to add it explicitly.

e.g. if you specify the Splash Page URL as "https://my.domain.com/mysplashpage.html"
the Walled Garden will automatically include the "my.domain.com" element.
