Abstract :
We present the basic architectural elements of the Captive Portal integrating Shibboleth based Authentication, Authorization, Accounting and Auditing into Wireless Mesh Networks. The Captive Portal is built upon the SWITCHaai/Shibboleth architecture especially designed to protect web based services. The architecture is secure, eavesdropping protected and does not require any specialized software installation on the client side.
