Abstract
A method includes receiving, at an access node of a local network, a connection request from a device and in response to the connection request, establishing a connection with an identity provider. The device, the access node, the local network, and the identity provider are members of an identity federation. The method further includes receiving an indication that the device previously violated a network policy of a network different from the local network and after the device is authenticated with the identity provider, determining, by the access node and based on the indication, whether to allow the device to communicate over the access node.
