How to enable web-based authentication on Cisco Catalyst Series Switches

Use the web-based authentication feature, known as web authentication proxy, to authenticate end users on host systems that do not run the IEEE 802.1x supplicant. You can configure web-based authentication on Layer 2 and Layer 3 interfaces.

When you initiate an HTTP session, web-based authentication intercepts ingress HTTP packets from the host and sends an HTML login page to the users. The users enter their credentials, which the web-based authentication feature sends to the authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) server for authentication.
If authentication succeeds, web-based authentication sends a Login-Successful HTML page to the host and applies the access policies returned by the AAA server.
If authentication fails, web-based authentication forwards a Login-Fail HTML page to the user, prompting the user to retry the login. If the user exceeds the maximum number of attempts, web-based authentication forwards a Login-Expired HTML page to the host, and the user is placed on a watch list for a waiting period.

This example shows how to enable web-based authentication

Switch(config)# ip admission name webauth1 proxy http

Switch(config)# interface fastethernet 5/1

Switch(config-if)# ip admission webauth1

Switch(config-if)# exit

Switch(config)# ip device tracking

This example shows how to verify the configuration:
