Thank you to every one that took time to reply, very much appreciated. I learnt something that I would not have understood otherwise. Marking @PhilipDAth as the solution purely because anyone else reading this thread in the future will benefit from the links.

Hello there, I am reading up for the ECMS Certification. The linked article https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/MR_Splash_Page/Splash_Page_Details_for_Meraki_MR has the following note after describing the considerations of the click through splash page. Note: The AP looks for HTTP GET requests on TCP port 80 in order to redirect users to the Splash page. If Block all access until sign-on is complete is enabled for the Captive Portal Strength, and the user attempts to access a web page that uses HTTPS, the AP will be unable to redirect the browser to the Splash page because the web traffic is encrypted. Additionally, if the user attempts the access a web page that uses a different port other than TCP port 80 the connection will also be blocked. In either case, the user's browser will timeout. If this is occurring, verify users are accessing a web page using HTTP over TCP port 80. I wanted to ask if the limitation of only detecting a HTTP request on port 80 is still the case. Is it really not possible to redirect HTTPS requests to the splash page? Article is listed as being updated on Aug 7th 2024.

Hey WW, thaks for the reply and taking time to post the links. I am currently working through the ECMS self study guide which also directed me to the same documentation. https://community.meraki.com/t5/FAQ-and-other-resources/ECMS-Exam-Self-study-Guide/ba-p/95926 I dont feel the documentation directly addresses my questions, and I am seeking clarification after having read those documents. I wont be able to set my lab up for another month or so, I just want to be sure that I dont continure building my house on a poorly laid foundation. Would you be able to answer the question below, that would be really helpful for me "My understanding of MX is that it offers secure SD-WAN via Auto VPN and it offers that function in both routed mode and passthough mode. is this correct?"

Hi all, I am wondering why there is a choice for the two modes of operation on the MX appliance and what happens at the device level when I choose Passthrough over Routed mode. Is this the same as enabling or disabling Layer 3 functionality on a switch, routed ports vs switched ports? Any insight beyond the standard explanation of the use cases noted in the dashboard options would be much appreciated. My understanding of MX is that it offers secure SD-WAN via Auto VPN and it offers that function in both routed mode and passthough mode. is this correct?
