Nile Portal Settings

Setup Guest Portal

2min

Overview

Nile supports two types of guest portals: Terms and Conditions (TNC) and Email Approval.

Click-Through: This will be used when you want to create an open SSID Captive Portal for guest users but want them to accept your company terms and conditions before they can access the guest network.

Email Approval: In the email approval guest portal, the guest user must input the email address of the person they are visiting, and then the employee will receive an email to approve or deny the user's access to the guest network.

Prerequisites

Before you start configuring the guest portal, make sure you have your company's terms and conditions policies ready, as they will vary according to your company's cyber rules. Nile does have default terms and condition policies defined that you can use as well.
