The Public Spot login page is usually displayed automatically whenever a WLAN device in the Public Spot Network invokes a webpage. However, if you want to access the logout page or the Public Spot status page, it is much easier to enter a name into the browser instead of an IP address.
This document describes how to access the Public Spot login or logout page using a DNS name instead of the IP address.
If you use the setup wizard Setup Public Spot, the following steps are performed automatically. The DNS name logout is used. You can change this, if necessary.
1) In the configuration of the device with the active Public Spot, navigate to the menu Public Spot → Server → Operational settings.
