The Public Spot module monitors the connection status of the remote station named here. If the WAN connection should fail, a corresponding message appears on the error page shown to unauthenticated users. This gives potential users information about the lack of network availability in advance.
If no remote station is named, the Public Spot module will not output connection errors on the error page. In case of a failure of the WAN connection, unauthenticated users will instead experience a connection timeout by their browser.
Already authenticated users, however, always receive an error message from their browser, irrespective of the error page.
