Kiwire 3.0 Administrator - Device & Controller Setup Guide

Pointing Ruijie Wifi access point to Kiwire Hotspot

Step 1 : Active the Access Point

1. Enable AP (reset if u can)
 

Ruijie > enable || en

Ruijie# apm factory-reset

                    //command for enable

//command for reset

2. Change mode to FAT

Ruijie#configuration terminal || conf t

Ruijie(config)# ap-mode FAT

                 //entering configuration mode

//change AP mode to Fat mode

3.Int BVI 1 change IP Address​

Ruijie#conf t

Ruijie(config)# interface BVI 1 || int BVI 1

Ruijie(config -if-BVI 1)# ip add 192.168.0.11 255.255.255.255

Ruijie(config -if-BVI 1)# ip add dhcp

Ruijie(config -if-BVI 1)# exit || ex

Ruijie(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1

//enter interface BVI

//static AP IP Address

//DHCP AP IP Address

//exit interface

//route to default gateway

4. Show configuration and test internet

Ruijie(config)# show run || sh ru

Ruijie(config)# do ping 8.8.8.8

//DHCP AP IP Address

//checking for internet

”do” command only can used in config mode (shortest way to bypass EXEC mode). If in EXEC mode (enable mode), just “ping 8.8.8.8”.

Ruijie(config)# Hostname –APName-

Ruijie(config)# no web-auth …

Ruijie(config)# end

Ruijie(config)# show int st

Ruijie# write memory || wr mem

Ruijie# help || ?

//Changing AP Name

//Removing any command

//exit and direct to enable mode

//show int config in a table form

//save configuration

//view any available command

“MAKE SURE THE AP HAVE INTERNET ACCESS BEFORE PROCEEDING TO STEP 2. CHECK YOUR CONNECTION OR REPEAT STEP 1.”

Step 2 : Enable Access Point SSID 

GUI METHOD

1. Open browser and search AP IP (default password usually admin:admin)

AP IP Address

Insert username and password

*by default, username and password is admin. Please refer Step 1 if unable to login.

2. On the left navigation bar, direct to network and then WIFI/WLAN tab.

Step 1

Step 2

3. Click ‘+’. Change the SSID and Encryption Type make it No Encryption. Click on the Advanced Settings and make sure tick 2.4G and 5G WiFi type. Last not lease Save.

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

Step 4

Step 5

Step 6

4. Try to open Wifi setting and check whether the SSID is created. If there no SSID repeat Step 2 GUI METHOD.

CLI METHOD

1. Enable the SSID

Ruijie(config)# dot11 wlan 1

Ruijie(dot11-wlan-config)# ssid YOUR SSID NAME

Ruijie(dot11-wlan-config)# ex

// wlan id usually start with 1 - 16

// SSID name

2. Enable Wifi Radio (make sure int Dot11radio is available)

Ruijie(config)# int Dot11radio 1/0.1

Ruijie(config -subif-Dot11radio 1/0.1)# encapsulation dot1Q 1

Ruijie(config -subif-Dot11radio 1/0.1)# wlan-id 1

Ruijie(config -subif-Dot11radio 1/0.1)# ex

//enable 2.4G WiFi

//encapsulate Vlan

//wlan id

Ruijie(config)# int Dot11radio 2/0.1

Ruijie(config -subif-Dot11radio 2/0.1)# encapsulation dot1Q 1

Ruijie(config -subif-Dot11radio 2/0.1)# wlan-id 1

Ruijie(config -subif-Dot11radio 2/0.1)# ex

//enable 5G WiFi

3. Try to open Wifi setting and check whether the SSID is created. If there no SSID observe the configuration whether interface Dot11radio is created or not.

STEP 3: Pointing to KIWIREv3

1. Create DNS

Ruijie(config)# ip name-server 8.8.8.8

Ruijie(config)# ip name-server 8.8.4.4

//Enable HTTP

//Enable HTTPs

2. Enable redirection to http & https port 80,443

Ruijie(config)# http redirect port 80

Ruijie(config)# http redirect port 443          

//IP KIWIRE

//IP DEVICE

http://192.168.0.1/wifidog/ruijie/  //KIWIRE URL

//AP SERIAL NUMBER

3. Create the template web authentication

Ruijie(config)# web-auth template KIWIREv3 wifidog

Ruijie(config.tmplt.KIWIREv3)# ip 192.168.0.1

Ruijie(config.tmplt.KIWIREv3)# nas-ip 192.168.0.11

Ruijie(config.tmplt.KIWIREv3)# url

Ruijie(config.tmplt.KIWIREv3)# gateway-id G1KD54G001122

Ruijie(config.tmplt.KIWIREv3)# ex

//The template created just now

4. Enable the web portal on the WLAN interface

Ruijie(config)# wlansec 1

Ruijie(config-wlansec)# web-auth portal KIWIREv3

Ruijie(config-wlansec)# ex

5. White list

Ruijie(config)# web-auth acl white-url

Ruijie(config)# web-auth acl white-url

Ruijie(config)# web-auth acl white-url

6. Free URL

Ruijie(config)# free-url

Ruijie(config)# free-url

Ruijie(config)# free-url

Ruijie(config)# free-url

7. Done AP configuration. Now will proceed to Step 4.

STEP 4: Setup on KIWIREv3

1. Login the KIWIREv3 Portal

Click "Add new row"

7. Setting in KIWIRE is done. AP should be able to POP UP landing page.

EXTRA 1: MULTI SSID POINTING KIWIRE

1. Create an another SSID as in Step 2                     // Make sure different wlan-id

2. Create a new template as in Step 3                  // Skip this method if using same template

3. Declare SSID to the template.

Ruijie(config)# wlansec 2                                         // refer your wlan-id

Ruijie(config-wlansec)# web-auth portal         Template Name      // the template created just now

Ruijie(config-wlansec)# webauth

Ruijie(config-wlansec)# ex
 

4. Test Connectivity. If got issues, make sure using correct wlan-id and template.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Access Point is pointing to the KIWIRE but no landing page pops up.

Answer: 

Check the IP address and Serial Number of the AP is correct filled in the KIWIRE. Check interface web-auth in Step 3, make sure correct filled.

 

2. A pop up only white screen instead of landing page.

Answer:

Try AP to ping internet and check for any internet connectivity. Check interface web-auth in make sure correct filled.

 

3. An error page pop up.

Answer:

Check Zone Mapping and Journey on KIWIRE.
