Managing Redirections to the Login Page

Limiting redirections prevents possibly overloading the SonicWall appliances’ web server by limiting redirections to the login page should HTTP/HTTPS connections that would otherwise get redirected there be repeatedly opened at a high rate from some unauthorized users.

To manage redirections to the login page

1. Navigate to Users > Settings > Web Login.
2. In the Limit redirecting users to field, enter the number of times per minute per user. The default value is 10 times.
3. To further limit redirects of the same page, select the Don’t redirect repeated gets of the same page option. This option is selected by default.
4. If the session does not need to be encrypted, select Redirect users from HTTPS to HTTP on completion of login.
5. Click Update.
