Your guest tries to log in using a social network, but an error page is displayed on his screen instead of the social network page.
When guests attempt to log in using a social network, they may encounter an unexpected error page instead of the usual social network login screen. This error page may be caused by various issues preventing proper authentication or social network access.
Several possible causes may trigger this error page, including:
-
Social network domains are not whitelisted in the SSID or Access list configuration
- DHCP or DNS server issues
- Firewall or URL Filtering blocking social networks
To address this issue, several actions can be taken:
- Adding the social network’s domains to the walled garden or access list configuration can help ensure proper authentication and access.
- Checking the DNS resolution for the social network domains while connected to the SSID
- Using firewall or URL filtering rules verification to identify and address any issues that may be causing the error. This process can help you determine whether the social network is being allowed or blocked by the firewall or URL filtering rules.
Following these recommended actions, you can troubleshoot the issue causing the unexpected error page and provide your network users a seamless and hassle-free experience when connecting to the SSID.
