Re: [AFMUG] HTTPS redirect

We had a problem, I think because we used an HTTP 301 redirect, and some browsers (cough, cough, IE9) would permanently cache the result. So the customer’s homepage would permanently go to the payment nag screen. The only way to undo it was some complicated sequence the included private browsi

Re: [AFMUG] HTTPS redirect

It seemed it had to do all sites because they were never trying to do a lookup for those test sites - the ones the OS was looking up had to be returned as the captive portal. I agree - once they paid, they really need to reboot their router. I did the same thing - set TTL to 1, but until the rou

Re: [AFMUG] HTTPS redirect

I gave up, too many people now don’t even go to web pages. Just video streaming, phone apps, and game networks. They just perceive it as my Internet is down, they never see the redirect page because they aren’t even using a web browser. At that point, you might as well just shut them off and

Re: [AFMUG] HTTPS redirect

I have mediacom cable at home. Don't know what the delinquency page looks like but they inject a usage banner somehow. And once when I got dmca flagged there was an injected banner and failed ip redirect. As I understood it when I asked around before, functional banner injection is an expensive bac

Re: [AFMUG] HTTPS redirect

I toyed with mangling DNS, but the issue was after they paid they still have cached results pointing to the wrong IP.  Even when my fake results had a TTL of 1 minute the client seemed to keep them longer than that. Is it sufficient to make DNS entries for the captive portal test sites or do y

Re: [AFMUG] HTTPS redirect

Redirecting HTTPS, as you know, doesn't work because of the certificate. Even using your own certificate won't work because you can't get a trusted certificate issues that is valid for all domain names. The only think you can do is redirect them BEFORE they try to do

I already know the answer I think, but if you're redirection non-pay customers to a web page what do you do with (the majority) who have an HTTPS home page? do you A) present your own certificate and expect them to click through the warnings? B) Don't bother and just drop https? C) do somethi

Every indoor generator I've ever seen has been in a separate, ventilated room from the telecom equipment.  I'd also rig up an exhaust fan as well if the generator is running.  Even better would be to put it in a separate building if you are building from scratch. photograph Daniel White

That move really makes sense. 10GEPON or even XGS-PON seem to be a lot more standardized and OMHO are a much better choice for building into an open(ish) SDN. Not that I have the time or brain power for it anymore, but if I were in my 20s again, with time and an agile brain, just starting out bui
