Abstract
Devices, systems, methods, and computer program products for managing network access control with a build system are disclosed. The build system controls network filtering at retail stores based on identifiers of Point of Sale devices connected to the store's LAN (Local Area Network). This filtering places only authorized devices on a virtual LAN within the LAN that is reserved for POS terminals. The network access control is managed by a process built into the build system.
