Abstract

A system and methodology for policy enforcement during authentication of a client device for access to a network is described. A first authentication module establishes a session with a client device requesting network access for collecting information from the client device and determining whether to authenticate the client device for access to the network based, at least in part, upon the collected information. A second authentication module participates in the session with the client device for supplemental authentication of the client device for access to the network. The supplemental authentication of the client device is based, at least in part, upon the collected information and a policy required as a condition for network access.
