Abstract: A method for installing authentication credentials on a network device. An intermediary computing device (e.g., client computer) downloads an application for installing the authentication credentials from a secure website. The application on the intermediary computing device requests authentication credentials from a Network Access Control (NAC) credential service. The application passes the authentication credentials received from the NAC credential service through the intermediary computing device to an endpoint (e.g., video conferencing device). The application installs the authentication credentials on the endpoint.

Abstract: A system comprises a rack and a network switch contained in the rack. The switch comprises a plurality of ports. The system further comprises a movable access mechanism in the rack and a sensor. The sensor is provided on the rack and electrically connects to a port on the network switch. The sensor detects when the movable access mechanism is moved.

Abstract: Data (e.g., a media stream) is received from a first electronic device at a second electronic device. Input is extracted from the received data. Thereafter, output responsive to the input is transmitted from the second electronic device to the first electronic device.

Abstract: A method for installing authentication credentials on a remote network device. A remote network device without valid authentication credentials may be connected to a port of an authenticating network switch, and the authentication protocols of the port may be enabled. A Network Access Control (NAC) credential service validates the remote network device comparing a received remote device identifier against a previously stored remote device identifier. The received remote device identifier may be received from the remote network device using a network when the remote network device attempts to access a private network. The NAC credential service disables the authentication protocols of the port in response to validating the received remote device identifier. The NAC credential service installs authentication credentials on the remote network device using encrypted data, so an untrusted entity cannot view the authentication credentials.

Abstract: A system and method for distributing enduring credentials for a secure network in an untrusted network environment is disclosed. The method includes providing temporary credentials to an untrusted user. The temporary credentials can be communicated to a computing device connected to a network switch. The network switch can relay the temporary credentials to an authentication server within the secure network. The computing device can be authenticated to verify it is authorized to be connected to the secure network. Enduring credentials can be transmitted from the secure network to the computing device in an encrypted format to enable the computing device to communicate within the secure network through the network switch without providing access to the enduring credentials to the untrusted user.
