About this tag

Topics include integrating captive portal servers like PacketFence with Draytek routers to authenticate users via social login (Facebook/Google) while using MAC authentication as a secondary or fallback method. The tag covers practical deployment scenarios where administrators seek to balance security and user convenience across distributed locations, often involving VLANs, RADIUS servers, and splash page customization. Common challenges include synchronizing MAC address lists across routers and troubleshooting authentication failures.
