Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for authentication and authorizing a client device on a network. First, one or more packets are received from a computing entity indicating an authentication request from a client device requesting connection at a network. Next, identification information of the client device are extracted from a body of the packets. Credentials of the client device are verified based on the identification information. In response to verifying the credentials, a level of access of the client device at the network is determined. Based on the level of access, a VLAN is assigned to the client device. The systems concurrently transmit, in a single packet, to the computing entity, an indication of approval of the credentials and the assigned VLAN, wherein the computing entity provisions the assigned VLAN to the client device following an allocation of an IP address corresponding to the assigned VLAN to the client device.
