Abstract
A computing device providing a network service to a service area may receive a connection request from a user device and generate a session start request to start a user session in a service domain covering the service area. One or more policy rules may be evaluated to determine whether any rule is applicable to the user device, which includes determining that an authoritative user session has already been established in the service domain. The user session may be established in the service domain for the user device, and at least one permission for access to a controlled network resource may be associated with the user session based on the determination that the authoritative user session has already been established. A request from the user device to access the controlled network resource may be received and access to the controlled network resource may be granted.
