Hi,
new to networking here.
Need to create a hotspot for an event in a place without DSL/CABLE infrastructure, with a captive portal login - forcing session time and data usage limits.
I intend to buy a 4G LTE router (Tp-Link MR200/400) to serve as a broadband gateway, and install OpenWrt+NoDogSplash on it. for an access point, I intend to connect to it a Unifi AP AC Pro unit via LAN port.
my questions are:
-
would captive portal policy active on the router be also implemented on the AP side automatically?
i.e. a person that connects to the AP will get a splash windows in his browser window and his mac address will be registered with NDS? -
will the Captive portal, be active on the router's own WiFi as well?
-
is it possible to create on the router side an IP white list, for an unrestricted access?
-
is it possible to create an SSID with unrestricted access?
or, should I install OpenWrt & NDS on the AP itself, so it will run only on the AP side?
Thanks in advance,
Eli.
