6. In the Name field, enter the name of the portal detection pattern.
7. In the User Agent Pattern field, enter the user agent pattern.
   NOTE

   The user agent pattern must follow a regular expression format, starting and ending with .* (for example, .*Android-WiFi.*). The default Captive Portal Detection may not support all the Android devices and the new Microsoft phone if different user agent patterns are used. In this case, new rules must be created to cover such patterns. Using an improper user agent pattern may impact browser behaviors.
8. In the HTTP Code field, enter the code.
   NOTE

   The HTTP code range must be from 100 through 599.
9. In the HTTP Response Body field, enter the HTML string.
10. Click OK.
    NOTE

    To select a Portal Detection Pattern profile, Bypass CNA must be enabled in the WLAN configuration page. Use Bypass CNA to enable or disable Portal Detection Service for HotSpot, Web Authentication, and Guest Access WLAN.
