Extra: delivering credentials to visitors

The Proxyclick Wi-Fi Add-on has the ability to deliver credentials to the user via SMS.

However, Aerohive generates its own credentials and does not expose them to the Wi-Fi Add-on. That’s why you should disable SMS messages in the Add-on for the locations that use Aerohive:

1. Go to “Locations” in the top menu

2. Select your location

3. Select the “Do not send SMS messages” checkbox

4. Click “Save”

5. (Repeat for every location that uses Aerohive)

You can use Aerohive’s built-in functionality to deliver credentials. The e-mail and phone number that is entered in Proxyclick will also be available in Aerohive.
