IoT Devices Authentication

This functionality is in roadmap. Contact our team to learn more.

In some cases, legacy headless devices cannot be easily connected to the WiFi by mean of a PSK, either because it is not supported by the device or because it might be too difficult to configure.

In such cases, devices can be manually provisioned for MAC Authentication.

Device Onboarding

Users would find a dedicated card in their WiFi Portal called Your Devices where they can add and manage their personal IoT devices

Clicking on the link "How to find your device MAC address" opens a screen with step by step instructions for the major streaming, gaming and assistant devices.

Adding a devices only requires to specify

• a reference Name

• the MAC address

Setup

You can enable manual IoT device provisioning form the Setting page of the dashboard, enabling the toggle for the option "Allow users register headless devices"

In order to allow devices to authenticate via MAC authentication, you need to create a dedicated SSID (for example named "IoT devices") and configure it to support MAC authentication. RADIUS server parameters and vendor-specifc instruction are provided on demand by our support team.
