Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a terminal authentication device that can suppress a troublesome operation to authenticate a terminal when the terminal is connected to a network. A reception unit receives a beacon signal broadcasted from a terminal. A position determination unit determines the position of the terminal using the received beacon signal. A connection control unit controls the terminal to be connected to a mesh network in the case where the determined position of the terminal is within a predetermined authentication possible region.
