HotSpot Login Realm

Fri Jul 08, 2011 5:12 am

I have a hotspot that I create usernames localy on the mikrotik but I use a radius provider to do authentication and payment processing. My question is sometimes after a user pays and tries to login they do not put the realm after the user ie: USER@Realm and they get denied I could put a simple jave script to automaticaly add the @realm after the user but then users that i add localy would not work. Is there anyway that a user can log in with just username no realm and if it does not match localy then go to radius like it already does but add the realm when it hits the radius entry ? This would cut down a ton of simple support calls " Did you put @realm after your username? oh it works now :) "

Couldn't you just add an example to the login page to make it clear they need to include the @domain?


Username:

ex: pat@example.com

You would think that would solve the problem but they still call and when they are grumpy with me saying how is anyone supposed to know to put @domain after there username I respond well the example next to the username box. They feel stupid after all that but they still keep calling.

I beleive that just directs the specific hotspot server profile to use a specific radius client if there are multiple radius clients added that would be for multiple domains / realms
