Captive portal is a web page that is displayed to a user before they are granted access to a network. It is a custom landing page that appears before network users can gain access to the internet. It can be used to require users to authenticate themselves, or to accept user agreements, or to provide additional information and services. Captive portals are often used in public places such as hotels, airports, cafes, and libraries.
