Abstract
A controller may receive a request from an endpoint and determine whether the endpoint connects via a first network or a second network. The controller may download first software to the endpoint when the endpoint connects via the first network, where the first software facilitates authentication of the endpoint via another device and instructs the endpoint to not store information regarding the controller. The controller may download second software to the endpoint when the endpoint connects via the second network, where the second software facilitates authentication of the endpoint by the device and instructs the endpoint to store information regarding the controller.
