MikroTik

Hi Everybody

Is there any way to open an predefined webpage automatically after a client logs in, dialing a Mikrotik PPPoE Server ?

Abhishek

Actually not.
The dialing is done by a network stack component, the browser is a independent application, and there is no push capability for http.

Any alternate way out ?

May be, you are talking about a "Captive Portal". This means, instead of the users first requested page, he is redirected to another one. Then, depending upon the page, either this redirected one "replaces" the original page requested, OR automatically redirects after some period of time to requested one.
Can be done with squid, for example, but also with other methods.
Google for "Captive Portal", which usually is a hotspot functionality.

Hi
Thanks for reply.

It may be a Captive Portal, Customer Self-Care or any Website- what I was wondering - can any website be automatically opened, after login by a PPPoE dialer ?

It is a common practice in Hotspot but can it be applied to PPPoE dialing as well ?

Actually, it should, assuming:
The user uses his browser to access any website, after connection is established.
"Captive Portal" functionality assumes a successful connection, because it uses some http: functions.
