This won't work in VLAN mode. To have an HTTP (no S) portal in VLAN mode
edit your conf/httpd.conf file under virtual host *:80 to change the
redirect statement from:
  RewriteRule ^.*$
https://%%hostname%%.%%domain%%/captive-portal?destination_url=http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
[R=307,L]

to:
  RewriteRule ^.*$
http://%%hostname%%.%%domain%%/captive-portal?destination_url=http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
[R=307,L]

So, basically, just get rid of the s in https in the redirect.

You should really understand the risks of doing so, especially if you
use important credentials for authentication like AD (they could be
sniffed).

If anyone would like this put behind a configuration flag, we could do
it. File a feature ticket in the tracker: packetfence.org/bugs.
