How is it possible to program or configure our wifi routers so that when there was a new connection the user would be prompted with a message?
I will try to give you a start.
The feature is called Captive portal. Its not available on all the routers.
For configuring this on a Linksys router, follow these steps.
And refer this page for more information.

I'm working with the esp32 which has access to wifi, but I need to pass wifi credentials and I can complete this by connecting to est32 access point and entering the website via ip address, where I can pass wifi credentials. My question is, can I enter this webpage via ip address through my vue application without closing it?
Or maybe anyone had similar problem, and found interesting solution? How to pass wifi credentials to esp32 (it has also bluetooth) with my own vue application?
Before you start building your own provisioning solution note that Espressif has a rather useful WiFi provisioning example using BLE, complete with an Android and iOS app.
I've setup an Azure VPN Gateway according to the instructions on https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/openvpn-azure-ad-tenant
However, each time I connect, the AAD Credentials token for the user is received successfully.
But next I get a message saying: "Dialing VPN Connection xxxxxx. Status = The operation was canceled by the user."
I've done everything listed here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/troubleshoot-ad-vpn-client.
Anybody out there that has a clue?
I found the answer to my problem, so here is the solution (in my case)
Open Windows Device Manager
Navigate to Network adapters
Uninstall all of the WAN Miniport (XXXX) devices
Right-click on any item and choose to Scan for hardware changes
The WAN Miniport adapters should have re-created themselves.
Try connecting to your VPN again.
Removing the WAN mini ports from the Device Manager worked for me.

I have a raspberry Pi that'd I like to use to connect to wifi networks for which I've already configured to connect to. However, on one wifi network I'd like to connect to, it brings up a window in a browser that has a terms and conditions that you have to accept. How to bypass, as id prefer not to have to hook it up to a display?
Also, sorry ahead of time about my inferior lack of network, but I believe my school's student wifi uses "trust certificates" (?). I remember getting my iPhone on the network and having to use not only a username and a password, but I had to "accept" a trust certificate. Can I perform those actions via command line?
You can use the curl command to detect and deactivate the captive portal from a shell script. Details will vary from portal to portal but running curl http://example.com when connected to the network with the captive portal will get you started.
Regarding your school's Wi-Fi, it's very likely using 802.1X authentication, which uses Certificates for security, see: https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/23079/how-to-connect-to-802-1x-eap-wireless-network-with-debian-wheezy
I found great help with this on this guide https://frankiejarrett.com/2014/09/how-to-connect-apple-tv-to-a-hotel-wi-fi-network . It is for an appletv but works same for raspberrypi. Basically you spoof your MAC address on your computer, connect to wifi and agree to terms and conditions and then change your computer's MAC address back to your original and then connect your raspberrypi to the wifi.
I would like to create iOS device configuration profile, which should force user to access VPN, I was able to create configuration profile successfully and was able to send all device traffic via VPN(by selecting ‘Send All Traffic’ check box), but on device still user see option to On/Off switch for VPN, in other word they are able to turn off VPN, my ‘Send All Traffic via VPN’ setting works only if on device user turn on VPN toggle switch.
I would like to disable VPN toggle button switch, so after installation of Device configuration profile, user should not able to turn off VPN, Any suggestion\input exactly what I should write in .mobileconfig file so device disable ‘VPN toggle’ switch.
Thanks

Please be aware that there's a new feature in iOS 8 called "Always-on VPN"
Excerpt from here https://www.apple.com/br/privacy/docs/iOS_Security_Guide_Oct_2014.pdf
iOS 8 introduces Always-on VPN, which can be configured for devices managed via
MDM and supervised using Apple Configurator or the Device Enrollment Program. This
eliminates the need for users to turn on VPN to enable protection when connecting to
Wi-Fi networks. Always-on VPN gives an organization full control over device traffic by
tunneling all IP traffic back to the organization. The default tunneling protocol, IKEv2,
secures traffic transmission with data encryption. The organization can now monitor and
filter traffic to and from its devices, secure data within its network, and restrict device
access to the Internet
Please be aware that there is a difference between device regarded as managed (actually apps and settings are managed) and devices regarded as supervised. You supervise a device on initial registration, something you want to do only for corporate owned devices, not BYOD.
Cheers
Jens
There is no configuration profile with a restriction which will prevent a user from turning VPN off.
The closest you can get is to configure "Enable VPN on Demand". This way, if some applications try to access any hosts which match iOS will turn VPN automatically.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone that has successfully established a VPN connection through a Sonicwall (TZ-100) device on to a SBS-2008 network as I currently have VPN access (through the Sonicwall Global VPN Client), but I am currently using a local user account from the firewall device.
As I am not establishing the VPN request using my Windows-AD username and password, I am having to enter my windows credentials to access network resources. Launching Outlook does not show my mail (even if I type in my password when promted). If I type in \\MyServerName\SharedFolder into Explorer, then I see the 'offline' sync folders stored on my laptop. On the otherhand, if I type \\192.168.100.10\SharedFolder (lets assume this is the LAN IP4 address for my server), then once I enter my windows credentials, I can see ALL the 'online' folders. Currently, for mail, I am using OWA while connected on the VPN. This current approach is not ideal. I feel there is a DNS, NETBIOS problem with my current set up.
Question, so that I can work from home in a 'normal uninterrupted' manner, do I need to activate 1. Radius by itself?, 2. LDAP by itself? or 3. Radius + LDAP together? Any pointers would be helpful as I would like to approach the Sonicwall support team armed with a little more info and having read some friendly material.
The problem was resolved by changing the DNS address on the Sonicwall device to the server rather than inherritting the external DNS addresses from the ISP. Also the DHCP service was routed to the server for VPN traffic.
There is no need to set up any additional services on the server to get LDAP running on the Sonicwall device. With a little help from the Sonicwall support, my network now works as one would expect.
