FortiAP
If you manage your FortiAP from the cloud, you can easily configure Social WiFi on the controller.
First, go to Wireless->Configuration->My RADIUS Server->Add RADIUS server. Add two servers as follows:
The login "pattern" for Test Connectivity is: test_RADIUS,
For password use the same credential.
For example, if my Radius Secret is "myradiussecret", my login would be "test_myradiussecret".
Name | socialwifi |
NAS IP | Leave empty |
Primary server name/IP | 35.205.62.147 |
Primary server secret | Radius Secret is available in Access Points tab of the Social WiFi Panel |
Secondary server name/IP | Leave empty |
Secondary server secret | Leave empty |
Server Port | 31812 |
Auth Protocol | PAP |
CoA enable | Leave unchecked |
Account all servers | Leave unchecked |
Case sensitive username | Leave unchecked |
press Save.
Add an accounting server changing just the Name and Server port section.
Name | swaccount |
Server port | 31813 |
press Save.
As you've created two RADIUS servers, please go to Wireless->Confiugration->SSIDs, and add a new SSID by clicking "+Add SSID".
Configure as follows:
SSID | Social WiFi |

In order to add a device to Social WiFi platform:
- Access your account in the Social WiFi Panel.
- Choose the correct venue to which you would like to add the device.
- In the “Access Points” tab, press “Add” (upper right corner), paste the MAC address you copied into the form (adding a name is optional) and click “Create”.
Connect with the WiFi network. You should see a login page. Go through the login process and, once finished, you should have internet access. You should see first connections and authorisations in the Social WiFi Panel’s statistics section.
