Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods for fallback operation within WLANs that rely on remote authentication procedures. When a primary network node authentication process fails, fallback access control parameters associated with a secondary network node authentication process are exchanged between a network node and an authentication server, wherein the secondary network node authentication process allows the network node to access other resources of a computer network.
