A network administrator needs to set up a method to ensure that users accessing the company's guest Wi-Fi network are required to agree to specific terms of use and enter their email addresses before being granted Internet access. Which of the following solutions is MOST appropriate for this scenario?
The correct answer is captive portals, which display a web page to newly connected users so they must accept the organization's terms of service or provide information (such as an email address) before full Internet access is allowed. Captive-portal implementations can also keep guest traffic isolated from internal resources.
MAC filtering confines access to devices with approved hardware addresses but does not present a terms-of-use page or collect user details. WPA3 secures wireless communication through strong encryption but likewise offers no interactive login page. Subnetting divides IP networks for logical segmentation and has no capability to prompt users for agreements or credentials.
