  • Publication number: 20240121609
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory, machine-readable media may facilitate wireless network provisioning. In one example, a method for provisioning wireless network access to a wireless device includes: creating, in a cloud-based provisioning system, a wireless network access profile that includes a user identifier associated with the wireless device, receiving, on an access point, an authentication request sent from the wireless device, identifying, by the cloud-based provisioning system, the wireless device based on the user identifier associated with the wireless device, performing, on the cloud-based provisioning system, WPA3-based authentication to authenticate the wireless device, and providing, by the access point, network access to the wireless device.

  • Publication number: 20220322091
    Abstract: Various arrangements for wireless network provisioning using a pre-shared key (PSK) are presented. A plurality of wireless network access profiles that indicate a plurality of PSKs may be stored. An access point may receive, from a wireless device, a first value based at on the PSK. The access point can transmit the first value to a cloud-based provisioning system. A plurality of values based on the plurality of PSKs of the plurality of wireless network access profiles may be created and a match between a second value of the plurality of values and the transmitted first value may be identified. A third value may be provided to the access point based on the PSK of the wireless network access profile of the plurality of wireless network access profiles used to generate the value. Network access can then be granted based on the third value.
