Abstract

Techniques for device quarantine in a wireless network are described. According to various implementations, a device (e.g., a mobile client device) that requests a connection to a wireless network is placed in a quarantine state in the wireless network. Attributes of the device are determined and connection parameters are specified based on the attributes. In at least some embodiments, the device can be released from the quarantine state subject to the connection parameters.
