Abstract

See full text

In a hotspot Wi-Fi network, users can access the Internet from a variety of access points. The users' credentials are centrally authenticated within the network core to ensure they are allowed on the hotspot network. To improve security and provide selective access, a further authenticator function in the network manages access to private and/or restricted network resources.
