PARENTAL CONTROL MANAGEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT BASED ON HARDWARE IDENTIFIERS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a device, a first indication that a user device connected to a first network device associated with a first network, the first indication including a hardware identifier associated with the user device;
identifying, by the device, a policy set associated with the hardware identifier;
outputting, by the device, the policy set to the first network device,the outputting causing the first network device to filter traffic, transmitted via the first network device and destined for the user device, in accordance with the policy set;
receiving, by the device, a second indication that the user device has connected to a second network device associated with a second network,the second network being different from the first network; and
outputting, by the device, the policy set to the second network device,the outputting causing the second network device to filter traffic, transmitted via the second network device and destined for the user device, in accordance with the policy set.

Abstract
A device may receive a first indication that a user device connected to a first network device associated with a first network, the first indication including a hardware identifier associated with the user device; identify a policy set associated with the hardware identifier; and output the policy set to the first network device. The outputting may cause the first network device to filter traffic, transmitted via the first network device and destined for the user device, in accordance with the policy set. The device may receive a second indication that the user device has connected to a second network device associated with a second network; and output the policy set to the second network device. The outputting may cause the second network device to filter traffic, transmitted via the second network device and destined for the user device, in accordance with the policy set.
