Captive Portal Customization and Device Detection

Not applicable

I have been tasked with modifying our Captive Portal, from Palo Alto, that current users see when they connect to our guest Wi-Fi here at the Upper Canada District School Board. I have read most of the documentation related to the captive portal and what can generally be done with it.

Now, I have already managed to change the style of the portal to a certain degree, including linking to images for display on it and changes in color/font. We currently have a guest button that users use to get immediate access to the internet. This button submits the credentials form that is also on the page. We do not utilize the credentials from for anything else.

Here are my questions regarding the capability of modifying the captive portal design and function:

1) Is it at all possible to hide the credentials form on the page? I tried this with standard html and CSS code techniques and by doing so the captive portal form would not function afterwards.

2) Is it at all possible to include JavaScript on the page? What I would like to do is add some script that auto detects the mobile browser of the device connecting in and offer a link that targets that device. This would provide us a mechanism to allow users to enroll in our existing MDM solution.

3) Any other options exist for customizing the page or possibly redirecting to a separate URL?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide. BTW…our environment is run on PA-5050’s with software version 4.1.9.
