Enterprise wireless local area network (LAN) guest access

An apparatus, comprising:

• a network interface;
• one or more processors coupled to the network interface;
• and
• a memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to detect a wireless network access request, forward data associated with the detected wireless network access request to a first multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation (mGRE) tunnel, receive authentication information associated with the detected wireless network access request, receive authentication status information for the detected wireless network access request, and forward data associated with the detected wireless network access request to a second multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation (mGRE) tunnel connected to a predetermined internet protocol (IP) subnet when the received authentication status information includes a successful authentication.

An apparatus, comprising:

• means for detecting a wireless network access request;
• means for forwarding data associated with the detected wireless network access request to a first multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation (mGRE) tunnel;
• means for receiving authentication information associated with the detected wireless network access request;
• means for receiving authentication status information for the detected wireless network access request;
• and
• means for forwarding data associated with the detected wireless network access request to a second multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation (mGRE) tunnel connected to a predetermined internet protocol (IP) subnet when the received authentication status information includes a successful authentication.
