Abstract
Roaming Consortium Identifier (RCOI)-based handling of identity requirements may be provided. First, an access device may advertise an identifier. The identifier may identify a roaming federation and an identity type used by a service provider in order to provide service by the access device. Next, a request to associate with the access device may be received from a user device. The request may be compliant with the identity type advertised in the identifier. The user device may then be associated with the access device in response to receiving the request.
