A. B. C. D.BD.
Based on the information provided in the question, you are running 7.0.116.0 and you have wireless clients with an HTTP proxy server configured that need to get web redirected in a web authentication (guest) SSID. The two statements that are true in this scenario are:
B. You need to enable WebAuth proxy redirection on the WL. C. You need to configure DHCP option 252 on the WLC to provide clients with proxy configuration for their browser.
Here's why:
B. You need to enable WebAuth proxy redirection on the WL. When clients connect to the web authentication (guest) SSID, they will be redirected to a web page where they can enter their credentials to gain access to the network. Since the clients have an HTTP proxy server configured, they will need to be redirected to the web page through the proxy server. To enable this redirection, you need to enable WebAuth proxy redirection on the Wireless LAN (WL) Controller (WLC). This can be done by going to the WLAN configuration page on the WLC and selecting the "Web Auth" tab. Under the "Web Login Page" section, select the checkbox for "Web Auth Proxy Redirection" and configure the appropriate settings for the proxy server.
C. You need to configure DHCP option 252 on the WLC to provide clients with proxy configuration for their browser. To ensure that the clients are redirected to the web page through the HTTP proxy server, you need to configure DHCP option 252 on the WLC. DHCP option 252 is a vendor-specific DHCP option that can be used to provide clients with the proxy configuration settings for their browser. The option consists of a string that specifies the URL of the proxy auto-configuration (PAC) file that the client should use. To configure DHCP option 252 on the WLC, go to the WLAN configuration page and select the "Advanced" tab. Under the "DHCP" section, select the checkbox for "DHCP Required" and configure the appropriate settings for the DHCP server, including the option 252 string.
D. The clients need to manually enter an exception in their browser proxy rule for the WLC virtual IP address. This statement is false. If you have correctly configured WebAuth proxy redirection on the WL and DHCP option 252 on the WLC, the clients should not need to manually enter an exception in their browser proxy rule for the WLC virtual IP address. The proxy server should automatically redirect the clients to the web page through the WLC virtual IP address.
