    Abstract: In one example embodiment, a network appliance is configured to process packets in a network. The network appliance obtains a mapping of a domain name to a security group tag having associated therewith one or more security policies. The network appliance receives a network packet having an Internet Protocol address. The network appliance determines a particular domain name associated with the Internet Protocol address of the packet. Based on the mapping of the domain name to the security group tag and the particular domain name, the network appliance determines whether the network packet is associated with the security group tag. The network appliance applies the one or more security policies to the network packet based on the security group tag when the particular domain name of the network packet matches the domain name.

    Abstract: A device obtains access to an application resource from a remote application server based on an authenticated device identifier. The device sends a request to access the application resource provided by the remote application server. The device receives a first message from the remote application server directing the device to send an authentication message to a device identity server. The authentication message requests an authenticated device identity for the device. The device attaches metadata associated with the device to the authentication message and sends the authentication message with the attached metadata to the device identity server. The device receives the authenticated device identity from the device identity server and sends the authenticated device identity to the remote application. The device obtains access to the application resource from the remote application server based on the authenticated device identity.

    Abstract: A policy server correlates information from several messages associated with a client device to implement an identity-based network access policy. The policy server receives a first message from a network element connected to the client device. The first message requests an identity-based policy for the client device, and includes a first network address. The policy server receives a second message from an identity server. The second message includes information indicating an identity role and a second network address. The policy server receives a third message from a NAT device. The third message includes a NAT mapping that correlates the first network address with the second network address. After the policy server determines the identity-based policy based on a combination of the first message, the second message, and the third message, the policy server implements the identity-based policy in the network element.

    Abstract: A policy server correlates information from several messages associated with a client device to implement an identity-based network access policy. A network element connected to the client device obtains an authentication message including a first network address from the client device. The network element provides the authentication device to an identity server via a Network Address Translation (NAT) device, which translates the first network address to a second network address. The network element also provides a first message including the first network address to the policy server to request an identity-based policy for network communications of the client device. The network element implements the identity-based policy authorized by the policy server.
