Statement introduced in Release 8.5 of JUNOS software.
Optionally, redirect HTTP requests to the device's internal Web server by sending a redirect HTTP response to the client system to reconnect to the Web server for user authentication. The interface on which the client’s request arrived is the interface to which the request is redirected.
Using this feature allows for a richer user login experience. For example. instead of a popup prompt asking for username and password, users can get the login page in a browser. Enabling web-redirect has the same effect as users typing the Web authentication IP address in a client browser. Using web-redirect provides a more seamless authentication experience because users do not need to know the Web authentication IP address but only the IP address of the resource they are trying to access. After the user has been authenticated this way, traffic from user's IP address is authenticated to go through the web-redirect method.
This statement is supported on J-series and SRX-series devices.
