<p>An authentication method, a system, a server, and a terminal for a wireless local area network (WLAN) are provided. The method includes: redirecting a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) request message sent by a WLAN terminal to an address of a login webpage of a WLAN network and returning the redirected HTTP request message to the WLAN terminal; sending authentication request information carrying an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) identifier of a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card sent by the WLAN terminal to an Authentication/Authorization/Accounting (AAA) server corresponding to the address of the login webpage of the WLAN network, such that the AAA server performs authentication based on the IMSI identifier. By adding between a WLAN user terminal and an authentication server a WLAN gateway capable of redirecting the terminal to accessing a login website of the WLAN network, such that WLAN network authentication based on a subscriber identification module in a mobile communication network to be implemented at an application layer of the Open System Interconnection (OSI) model, thereby greatly reducing the complexity of the development work of a developer, and eliminating the need of the operator making corresponding modifications to the access points (APs) of the WLAN network.</p> |
