For KeexyBox, a device is a hardware that can have a connectivity to the Internet. It can be a PC, smartphone, tablet, IP Camera, Smart TV or a voice assistant.

Since version 21.04.1, you can avoid registering your devices in KeexyBox to connect them to the internet. You just need to set Internet access conditions to None in the captive portal settings.

To manage devices:

1. Use your browser and connect to the KeexyBox Management Web interface.
2. On left menu, go to Connection settings → Devices.
3. You will be redirected to the Devices page.

You will need to declare your devices in the following cases :

• Your devices does not allow you to enter a login and password in a browser to connect it to the Internet (IP camera, TV, voice assistant…).
• You don't want to bother entering a login and password on the captive portal to connect your PCs or smartphones to the Internet.
• You want to set a DHCP IP address reservation for your device.
• If the captive portal is disable (Internet access conditions set to None in the captive portal settings) and the device must use a profile other than the one defined by default for the whole network.
