Abstract
A method for establishing a VPN with a client device is provided. In the method, an AP can receive an access request directed to an OpenRoaming (OR) Service Set Identifier (SSID) from the client device. The AP can send the access request to an OR connector. In response to the access request, the AP may receive an access response from the OR connector. The access response can include an attribute indicating an address to connect to a company Virtual Private Network (VPN) headend. The AP may then use the attribute to establish the VPN connection with the company VPN headend.
