What is PacketFence?

PacketFence is a fully supported, trusted, Free and Open Source Network Access

used to effectively secure small to very large heterogeneous networks.
Among the features provided by PacketFence, there are:

  *   powerful BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) capabilities
  *   multiple enforcement methods including Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) 
and hotspot-style
  *   built-in network behaviour anomaly detection
  *   state-of-the art devices identification with Fingerbank
  *   compliance checks for endpoints present on your network
  *   integration with various vulnerability scanners, intrusion detection 
solutions, security agents and firewalls
  *   bandwidth accounting for all devices
A complete overview of the solution is available from the official website:
