Zusammenfassung:There is disclosed in an example, a gateway apparatus, including a hardware platform having a processor and a memory; a wireless network interface; and instructions encoded within the memory to instruct the processor to: provide a first virtual access point (VAP) secured by an IEEE 802.1x extensible authentication protocol (EAP) enterprise security method; provide a second VAP secured by a WiFi protected access pre-shared key (WPA-PSK) method; onboard a device, comprising determining whether the device supports the EAP method, and enrolling the device with the EAP method if the device supports the EAP method; and if the device does not support the EAP method, enrolling the device with the WPA-PSK method.
