Bypassing
 IP Binding
IP Binding is an option that we used to specific user that can access internet without
authentication from web page (Hotspot) based on IP address and mac address of
user.

Did you see, this IP address of user can access internet without authentication from
Hotspot service.
 Walled Garden
Walled Garden is an option that we used to access internet by specific website
without authentication from Hotspot service based on IP address of user. Please
remember that, if you had configure IP Bindings, you should disable it first, and then
you can configure Walled Garden.
Note: If different user or IP address no need to disable IP Binding. But in this picture
I choose the same user or IP address to test it.
