Captive portal SSL decryption policy requirement

[tirexxerit]

Hi,

PAN has the following document [1] which says you need to have SSL decryption in order to redirect SSL pages to captive portal.

To me it doesn't seem to be accurate. Response page [2] workaround seems to be doing the same i.e without having an SSL decryption policy, I see that SSL pages are redirected to captive portal properly. What am I missing? I have found

several posts about this topic referring response page document too but PAN's document contradicts this.

I have created a PAN case for clarification/document update though, I would appreciate forum users' feedback.

thanks.

That first article is simply very old and should have been archived, I'll go ahead and do that 

Thanks for reporting this!

Hi,

  that is fine but please publish a new article as TAC keep telling us that SSL decryption is required for captive portal

and as per experience, it is not a correct statement. New article can be helpful for TAC and users like us :-)

thanks.
