Patent Images
1. A method for provisioned configuration of a wireless device comprising:
- authenticating a user of the wireless device;
transferring an executable application to the wireless device, wherein execution of the executable application configures the wireless device to allow the wireless device access to a restricted wireless network, wherein the configuration includes parameters and policies governing access to the restricted wireless network;
controlling access of the wireless device to the wireless network based on at least the parameters and policies installed on the wireless device as a part of the wireless device configuration.

Abstract
Systems and methods for provisioned configuration of wireless devices to allow access to restricted wireless networks are provided. Using an open wireless or wired network, a user of a wireless device may be authenticated. A configuration application, which includes the parameters and policies of the provisioned configuration, is generated, transferred to, and executed on the wireless device. Following configuration by the application, the wireless device is allowed to access the restricted wireless network within the parameters and policies of the provisioned configuration.
