Wireless SSID Splash Page and Guest Access Management

SSID splash page configuration in Meraki wireless networks provides administrators with comprehensive guest access control capabilities, enabling customized user authentication experiences, terms of service acceptance, guest registration workflows, and network access policies. This functionality supports visitor network management, compliance with acceptable use policies, user data collection, brand customization, and controlled network onboarding. Splash page configuration is essential for implementing secure guest access, managing public Wi-Fi services, enforcing network usage agreements, supporting captive portal requirements, and providing professional guest network experiences in hospitality, retail, corporate, and educational environments.

Examples

Example-1: The example below demonstrates SSID splash page configuration.

This configuration creates captive portal and guest access functionality for wireless networks. The example includes splash page settings, guest authentication methods, terms of service, and access control parameters for secure guest network access.

The CORP SSID (SSID 0) has no splash page enabled, but its splash settings allow simultaneous logins, block all traffic before sign-on, and set a splash timeout of 1440 minutes (24 hours). Guest sponsorship requests are disabled, billing free access for 20 minutes is turned off, and redirect or splash URLs are not used. Additionally, if the controller disconnects, the default behavior applies. Notifications will be sent to example@example.com.
