QuestionQ55

Network Security

A network administrator configures the following Portal authentication settings on an access device. Which authentication protocol is configured for Portal authentication?

[WAC] web-auth-server wac1  
[WAC-web-auth-server-wac1] server-ip 192.168.100.100  
[WAC-web-auth-server-wac1] port 50200  
[WAC-web-auth-server-wac1] url http://192.168.100.100:8080/portal  
[WAC-web-auth-server-wac1] shared-key cipher Huawei@2020  
[WAC-web-auth-server-wac1] quit  
Explanation

A web-auth-server profile with a Portal server address, Portal notification port, URL, and shared key configures Portal authentication. The URL is the redirected web-login page; http in that URL does not itself select HTTP/HTTPS as the Portal authentication protocol. Huawei documentation distinguishes the protocol portal setting from HTTP/HTTPS Portal interconnection settings.
