ZoneDirector is typical implementation of how a Redirector works. This redirector works with RADIUS, Web portal etc. Below are requirements for implementations such as ZoneDirector.
- External Web server (such as Apache, IIS, or equivalent) with properly configured login portal page.
- Local Directory, Active Directory, LDAP or RADIUS authentication server (RADIUS is preferred by many)
- An Accounting server such as RADIUS
Below are typical setup process in a Redirector
- Configure the AAA server. If we have selected RADIUS, we need to provide this here
- Configure the Accounting server, This is optional, required only if the operator is interested in knowing the details of the upload / download and other parameters
- Configure a Hotspot with its name, Login page url ( the login url will be used to redirect unauthenticated users. This url will be added to the walled garden by the redirector automatically), a Start page (Page which is used for redirecting after the authentication is successful.) Session timeout (IF specified, the users will be automatically signed out when the session time elapsed. Sometimes RADIUS server also can specify the session timeout, if this is the case, this will be the value of the timeout.), Idle timeout,
