Methods and systems for segmenting computing devices in a network

A server associated with a wireless network having an access point broadcasting in a single broadcast domain, the server comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory;
• and
• processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• receive, from a computing device, a request to join the wireless network, the request associated with an identifier,
• when the identifier is not associated with a virtual network within the wireless network:
• configure a virtual network within the wireless network and associate the identifier thereto;
• and
• assign the computing device to the configured virtual network;
• and
• when the identifier is associated with an existing virtual network within the wireless network:
• assign the computing device to the existing virtual network.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

• receive, from a computing device, a request to join a wireless network having an access point broadcasting in a single broadcast domain, the request associated with an identifier,
• when the identifier is not associated with a virtual network within the wireless network:
• configure a virtual network within the wireless network and associate the identifier thereto;
• and
• assign the computing device to the configured virtual network;
• and
• when the identifier is associated with an existing virtual network within the wireless network:
• assign the computing device to the existing virtual network.
