Abstract
Systems and methods for network authorization are described herein. An example method can include receiving a user credential from a host device connected to a network, authenticating the user credential, and in response to authenticating the user credential, determining an authorization policy associated with the host device. The method can also include polling a network overlay control plane of the network to obtain a network location information associated with the host device, identifying at least one network device of the network using the network location information, and transmitting the authorization policy to the at least one network device.
