BlueCat Networks’ Proteus MAC Registration Portal allows universities and colleges to easily register and track all devices connecting to the campus network including faculty and students’ personal laptops, smart phones, tablets and gaming consoles. To maintain security and accountability, users must first register their devices using the self-service Web portal before they can access the network. The automated solution improves efficiency and response times by effectively eliminating IT involvement in device registration. Easy to deploy and maintain, the Proteus MAC Registration Portal provides everything required to manage device registration as a single virtual machine. Best of all, the Proteus MAC Registration Portal is tightly integrated with IP Address Management (IPAM), DNS and DHCP to provide centralized visibility and control of “everything IP” on the campus network.

With a fully customizable look and feel, the Proteus MAC Registration Portal easily integrates with your existing Web site and usage policies. Users attempting to connect to your network are redirected to the secure Proteus MAC Registration Portal where they must first register their device by logging in with their existing campus credentials. Information about the user’s device may be captured through auto-detection or entered manually. Once the required device information is submitted, DHCP and IP address management services are automatically updated to add access for the device based on your existing policies, granting the user immediate access to the network and all available services.
