Patent

CA 2262350

Network address (e.g. IP address) allocation under first and second protocols (e.g. RADIUS and DHCP) is achieved using a directory service. A common network address pool is maintained under the control of a directory service. The directory service allocates network addresses in response to requests. The directory service also maintains a record of network address allocation to users, which can be achieved by storing a network address allocated to a user at the user's entry in the directory. Thus, for example, IP address allocation under RADIUS and DHCP can be unified using a common address pool and mappings between IP addresses and the user/hosts information in an ISO/CCITT X.500 based directory service using LDAP.
