When a guest is redirected to the captive portal, their browser sends an HTTP Get request. Included in the headers of this request is the User-Agent string (e.g., Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 17_0...)). ClearPass Guest parses this string to identify the specific OS and browser version. This information is then shared with the Policy Manager to update the endpoint database, providing immediate profiling context even before the user logs in.
