How do I bypass Agile Controller when it's down

Hello,

you can configure the free rule to bypass the agile controller when it's down.

Example configuration

Add free rule:

[AC6005]free-rule-template name default_free_rule

[AC6005-free-rule-default_free_rule]free-rule 4 source ip 10.1.1.0 mask 24 destination any

Remove free-rule:

[AC6005]free-rule-template namedefault_free_rule

[AC6005-free-rule-default_free_rule]undo free-rule 4 

 

Details explanation about free rule configuration, you can refer below link.

I hope this helps.

Thanks. That looks like a good idea. However, is it possible that authentication is automatically bypassed for all users when the Agile Controller is down and after the Agile Controller recovers(up), the user automatically recovers the authentication as normal?

Ok, then you can try to configure the Portal escape to ensure that users can bypass authentication when the server is unavailable, kindly you can refer below configuration example:

Let me know what else I can do for you!

Good
