ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for supporting a network behind a wireless station includes a gateway that can receive from a wireless station a request for a communications session. The gateway can determine whether to authenticate the communications session, and, in response to determining to authenticate the communications session, request from a server network addresses for network devices behind the wireless station. The gateway can receive the requested network addresses from the server, associate the received network addresses with the wireless station, and establish the communications session.
