Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for automatic port identification. The present technology can involve determining that a wireless device has connected to a network device on a network, and determining which of the ports on the network device the wireless device has connected to. The determining the port connected to the wireless device can involve determining respective traffic patterns to be provided to selected ports on the network device, determining a traffic pattern transmitted by the wireless device, determining that the traffic pattern transmitted by the wireless device has a similarity to a traffic pattern from the respective traffic patterns, and based on the similarity, determining that a port associated with the traffic pattern is connected to the wireless device. The present technology can also involve selecting a port policy for the port.
