4 results about "Supplicant" patented technology

Systems and methods for a virtual machine executing on a host device to establish a secured wireless connection and control a wireless network device without being exposed to the wireless network credentials are provided. A supplicant proxy is provided at the virtual machine to route authentication requests generated at the virtual machine through a supplicant and receive session keys from the supplicant, where the supplicant is at another virtual machine executing on the host device and has access to the network credentials.

A wireless communication method for data plane service, performed by a network node, includes receiving, from a data plane service supplicant (DPSS), a data plane service request, wherein the data plane service request comprises one or more of the following: a data plane network data service descriptor identifier indicating a type of a data-driven network operation, a data plane service supplicant correlation identifier to correlate the data plane service request between the DPSS and the network node, a DPSS identifier (DPSSID), a digital signature of the DPSS, or a public key of the DPSS, verifying the DPSS based on the data plane service request, and transmitting a data pipeline service subscribe request to one or more functional entities, wherein the data pipeline service subscribe request comprises data plane service parameters corresponding to each respective functional entity.

Provided are system, method, and device for enabling network entities to view authenticated supplicants in a network. According to embodiments, the system may include: a memory storage storing computer-executable instructions; and at least one processor communicatively coupled to the memory storage, wherein the at least one processor may be configured to execute the instructions to: create a first authentication list for a first network entity; receive a second authentication list from a second network entity; and create a trust list for the first network entity based on the first authentication list and the second authentication list, wherein the trust list for the first network entity specifies a trust level between the first network entity and one or more network entities in the first and second authentication lists.

Embodiments of this disclosure relate to Cloud Native Functionality (CNF) authentication during CNF instantiation and bootstrapping. Embodiments may provide a method that includes: a supplicant sending a message to an authentication unit during the CNF instantiation and bootstrapping stage to initiate an Extensible Authentication Protocol Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS) protocol sequence, wherein EAP-TLS authentication is performed on an authentication server based on the message; and the supplicant receiving the result of EAP-TLS authentication from the authentication unit, the result of EAP-TLS authentication being generated on an authentication server, and the authentication unit being configured to control CNF traffic based on the result of EAP-TLS authentication.
