Enable redirection of unauthenticated HTTP or HTTPS connections

To use browser-based user authentication, you must define some IPv4 or IPv6 Access rules.

Note: To redirect HTTPS traffic, you must enable TLS decryption for the traffic.

You must define the following IPv4 or IPv6 Access rules:

  • An Access rule that allows all clients to access the logon page.
  • An Access rule that allows authenticated users to establish HTTP or HTTPS connections.
  • An Access rule that redirects unauthenticated HTTP or HTTPS traffic to the logon page.
