Answer 1

Flavio visits a local coffee shop on his way to school and accesses its free Wi-Fi. when he first connects, a screen appears that requires him to first agree to an acceptable use policy (aup) before continuing. Flavio has encountered a captive portal type of AP.

Explanation:

In order to keep the offered network safe and secure, most Wi-Fi hotspot providers mandatorily make the user agree to their user policies before letting them have access to their network service.

This statement of the user policy is displayed on the screen of the user's device through a pre-designed captive portal. As soon as the user links to the network, the captive portal window is opened on the screen of the user's device.

Answer 2

The AUP is a document that shows the set of rules of constraints that have been put in place by owner, creator or administrator of the network or website. The user must agree to these terms before they can access the service.
