Method for establishing server communication via authentication
The patent US12058128B2 outlines a method and system for establishing a secure communication connection between a network device and a server through an authentication server. The process begins with the authentication server receiving reference authentication data from the server, which defines access parameters for the network device. Upon receiving an access request from the network device, the authentication server compares the provided authentication data with the stored reference data. If the data matches, the authentication server requests the server to set up a communication connection, including the identity of the requesting device. An acknowledgment signal is then sent to the network device, providing a network address for the connection. The network device subsequently sends a connection request using this address, which is combined with the established communication connection to finalize the setup.
Additionally, the patent specifies that the communication connection request can be delivered over a secured channel, such as a virtual private network (VPN). The authentication server may function as a Radius server and can utilize various forms of authentication data, including usernames, passwords, or authentication certificates. The system is designed to facilitate secure communication by incorporating control operations through designated entities within the network. The claims also encompass a computer program product that executes the described method, ensuring that the authentication server can effectively manage the connection process between the network device and the server.
