Introduction
The Wireless Guard features zero configuration connectivity, which means that
as an administrator you do not need to reconfigure every computer’s TCP/IP
information, which attempts to connect to your network. However, given the
simplicity of connecting, other access control methods needed to be designed.
The Wireless Guard solves this solution by requiring all users to authenticate
themselves before they are allowed to use the Internet. Authentication is simple
and easy, all users need to attempt to connect to some web site, and the
Wireless Guard will automatically redirect them to an authentication page, where
they enter their username and password. If the administrator should so choose,
the Wireless Guard will also verify if the MAC address of the computer attempting
to connect with a specific username and password is valid, denying access if not.
Once the user has authenticated himself with the Wireless Guard, he will be
redirected to his originally intended website, if it is a legal URL, and his computer
is now free to use other services such as email and instant messaging. The last
of which is of course at the discretion of the network administrator as the
Wireless Guard can be configured to block services with its firewall capabilities.
