Embodiment 1

[0040] as attached figure 2 , this embodiment provides a VLAN Portal authentication method, which greatly simplifies the authentication process when a hotel guest accesses the wired network port of the guest room to surf the Internet.

[0041] When networking on the second floor, configure a unique 802.1Q VLAN number for the wired network port of each guest room, and configure other VLANs different from the wired network of the guest room for meeting rooms, business centers and other public wireless coverage areas. All VLANs are terminated at Access port of HSIA.

[0042] For example, in Room 1001, when a guest's computer or other terminal equipment is connected to the wired network port of the room, HSIA judges whether the access of the computer or other terminal equipment has passed the authentication and is within the set validity period:

[0043] If it has passed the authentication and is within the set validity period, then allow access to the network; otherwise, perfor...

Embodiment 2

[0046] as attached image 3 , this embodiment provides a wireless network VLAN Portal authentication method.

[0047] When networking on the second floor, configure a unique 802.1Q VLAN number for the wired network port of each guest room, and configure other VLANs different from the wired network of the guest room for meeting rooms, business centers and other public wireless coverage areas. All VLANs are terminated at Access port of HSIA.

[0048] When a guest's computer or other terminal equipment accesses the wireless network port, HSIA judges whether the access of the terminal equipment has been authenticated and is within the set validity period:

[0049] If it has passed the authentication and is within the set validity period, then allow access to the network; otherwise, perform authentication,

[0050] HSIA pushes the Portal authentication page to the guest's computer or other terminal devices for password Portal authentication.

Embodiment 3

[0052] as attached Figure 4 , this embodiment provides a wired / wireless MAC authentication method for hotel guests.

[0053] When networking on the second floor, configure a unique 802.1Q VLAN number for the wired network port of each guest room, and configure other VLANs different from the wired network of the guest room for meeting rooms, business centers and other public wireless coverage areas. All VLANs are terminated at Access port of HSIA.

[0054] On the basis of Embodiment 1 or 2, further, after the guest computer or other terminal equipment is authenticated to access the wired / wireless network port, HSIA can record the MAC address of the guest computer or other terminal equipment wired / wireless network card, and make Authentication records, pushing the Portal authentication success page, the authentication system regularly updates and refreshes the MAC address within the validity period to the gateway, if the guest's computer is within the set validity period, such...

Abstract

The invention discloses a hotel public network wired / wireless unified authentication roaming method. During two-layer networking, an unique 802.1Q virtual local area network (VLAN) number is configured for a wired network port for each guest room, a VLAN which is different from wired networks of the guest rooms is configured for other public wireless coverage areas, and all the VLANs end at an access port of a high speed internet access (HSIC). When a guest accesses the wired / wireless network port in the guest room, the HSIC can conduct authentication according to the 802.1Q VLAN or Portal passwords of an upward message. When the authentication is passed, HSIA works out an authentication record. When the user accesses the network again, the HSIA conduct the authentication directly according to a machine aided cognition (MAC) address of an accessed terminal device or Cookie identification (ID) of the accessed terminal device. Authentication is not needed for accessing each time, and therefore an authentication process of accessing the terminal device of the guest is greatly simplified and fast and intelligentized surfing authentication service is provided for hotel users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a public network of a hotel, including an authentication method of a wired / wireless network in guest rooms, especially a wired and wireless network connection method and a roaming method in private or public areas such as hotels, hotel conference rooms, and lobbies. Background technique [0002] The public network of many hotels can provide wired and wireless Internet access services for hotel guests and non-resident guests at the same time, but the network access process is very complicated and diverse. For security, audit and charging considerations, and to avoid Install any software, and the authentication method when the guest accesses the Internet generally adopts Portal authentication (see glossary). For in-house guests, the guest's Internet account is usually their own room number. For non-in-house guests, the guest usually needs to purchase an Internet prepaid card at the front desk or business center, and use the card ...
