Abstract:
Infrastructure-based client management uses synthesized beacon reports to effect client association with APs in a wireless digital network. Beacon reports are synthesized by having a plurality of APs in the network collect client reports and send those reports to a report process on the network. The report process accumulates client reports from the plurality of APs and selects one or more candidate APs to support a client. Selection may be made on reported SNR, AP loading, channel loading, AP characteristics, or a combination. The report process may produce blacklists and optionally whitelists for use by APs to use in processing client probe and connection requests.

Claim (Index 23):
The method of  claim 17 , further comprising:\n receiving, by the network device, an updated client data for the particular client device from a plurality of access points in a wireless local area network (WLAN); updating, by the network device, a blacklist report for a respective access point, the blacklist report including a plurality of client devices to which the respective access point is not selected to provide the network access; and transmitting, by the network device, the updated blacklist report to the respective access point to cause the access point to refrain from responding to connection requests received from the plurality of client devices.
