MULTI-HOST ACCESS AUTHENTICATION METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR WIMAX NETWORK

摘要

A multi-host access authentication method and system for WiMAX network, the method includes that: after an access request message from a host is received, a label information of the host which is carried in an authentication start message is sent to an authentication network element; according to the received label information carried in an authentication response message which is from the authentication network element, the authentication response message is transmitted to the host corresponding to the label information, in order to the host performs access authentication with an authentication server after it receives the authentication response message, and the authentication server sends an authentication result to the authentication network element; and the authentication result sent by the authentication network element is received. The system includes a node of network element, a base station, a NAS, and an authentication server. Application of the present invention enables the node of network element to acquire the authentication result of the host, and decide whether an authorization port will be opened or closed according to the authentication result, application of the present invention also can avoid the lawless access of a lawless user, and improve the security of the system.
