There is http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6585#section-6 for that. Chromium bug is https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=114929 , Firefox has their own as well. As far as I know this only works for HTTP connections. There really is no reasonable way how the airport can step into an HTTPS connection and demand authentication without causing a certificate error. There is experimantal https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2521.txt which suggests an ICMP packet "Need Authorization", but as I said, it is experimantal. Am I missing something? This gradual roll out of the UI hints that is being proposed now would help shift attention to such problems. The problems won't be solved until we get to a state we (actually, you ;) truly _need_ to be solving them.Received on Monday, 22 December 2014 16:58:48 UTC
