The LAN Edge 7.6 Architect Study Guide defines exactly four captive portal types in the " Captive Portal Types " section:
" There are four types of captive portals that you can enable on an interface: Authentication, Disclaimer + Authentication, Disclaimer Only, and Email Collection. "
The guide further describes each:
Authentication — " Authentication type captive portals request users to authenticate before they are allowed access to the network. " This requires a login, satisfying the tracking requirement.
Disclaimer + Authentication — " Disclaimer + Authentication captive portals present users with a disclaimer page and an authentication page. The user must accept a disclaimer and authenticate successfully in order to get network access. " This also requires a login, satisfying the tracking requirement.
Disclaimer Only — Users accept a disclaimer but do NOT authenticate. No login required.
Email Collection — Users provide an email address only; no username/password authentication.
Since the requirement is specifically to require visitors to log in for tracking purposes, only the two types that enforce login credentials qualify: Authentication (E) and Disclaimer + Authentication (C).
Why the other options are wrong:
A is incorrect — " Terms Acknowledgment Without Authentication " does not exist as a captive portal type in FortiOS. This matches Disclaimer Only, which does NOT require login.
B is incorrect — " Email Notification Only " is not one of the four captive portal types. The study guide names it " Email Collection " — and even that only collects an email address, not a full login credential.
D is incorrect — " Guest Pass Access " is not listed as a captive portal type in the LAN Edge 7.6 study guide. It is not one of the four defined types.
???? Typing Error Corrections Made: " racking purposes " in the original question corrected to " tracking purposes. "
