Abstract

Cloud-based authentication is provided for additional user stations of a user once a trusted user station has been established. Responsive to a match in a common QR-code received from the trusted user station and a second user station, one or more access points associated with the user is identified. The second station is associated with the user and with the one or more access points including sending credentials for authorizing the second station with the one or more access points. When a subsequent request for network access from the second station at the one or more access points, Wi-Fi services are automatically provided from the one of more access points to the second user station, without requiring the second user station to enter authentication credentials.
