Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method includes receive, by a networking device, a request from a first computing device, to connect to the networking device. The method also includes creating a first network. The first network is one of a set of networks of the networking device. The first computing device is one of a set of computing devices that are connected to the network device. Each network of the set of networks is initially isolated from other networks of the set of networks when the network is created. Each network of the set of networks comprises a respective computing device of the set of computing devices. The method further includes assigning the first computing device to the first network.
