  Abstract

The Network Access Control (NAC) system that handles users’ Internet access generally has a tradeoff between usability and security. This paper proposes a NAC system which reduces the burden on user account management and improves the convenience of using NAC service by applying a standard authentication specification to the captive portal of the NAC system. Security for account management is enhanced by leveraging federated authentication with a hub-type AA (Authentication and Authorization) system and adopting a standard to facilitates the exchange of security information. In addition, it is possible to achieve high usability because users can obtain access rights to Guest Internet through their home institutional credentials. We established a networking test-bed to verify the feasibility of the NAC system and evaluate its performance such as the capacity of concurrent users and the throughput of TCP/UDP packet streams.
