We're seeing it as well only since recent WCS upgrade. I assumed it was flotsam 
from something down deep in the code, as from what I can tell it doesn't do 
anything.  Given that Vinayak is an Indian term and development (at least in 
the past) is in India, I chalk it up to "cosmetic defect" and sloppy QA.. But 
if anyone knows more, do tell.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Redirect URL of unknown origins

I am seeing something strange in the "Client Details" in WCS.  Although we do 
not use web auth or redirect url on this SSIDs,  the WCS reports that random 
clients are using the redirect url "Vinayak2".  Without being able to query the 
database, I do not know how many clients have this redirect url listed in their 
Client Details.  But through a hit or miss strategy, I am able to determine 
that the clients are Apple laptops, PSP, another Sony gaming system, a 
non-Apple laptop, etc.  In addition, the clients are found on all three of our 
WLCs.    Does anyone have a clue why I am seeing a redirect url and why I am 
seeing the url as Vinayak2?

I have a ticket with Cisco but am not getting anywhere.
