Abstract

In general, techniques are described for provisioning layer two access in computer networks. A network device located in a public network comprising an interface and a control unit may implement the techniques. The interface establishes a session with a mobile device. The control unit requests security state data identifying a security state of the mobile device via the established session. The interface receives a mobile device identifier and the security state data from the mobile device via the session. The mobile device identifier identifies the mobile device. The control unit publishes the security state information to a database such that the security state information is associated with the mobile device identifier.
