Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for network assignment based on priority are described in this application. In one aspect, a technique for network assignment based on priority relates to establishing a connection between a client and a virtual local area network (VLAN), based on an explicit or implicit network priority preference of the client. In an embodiment, multiple VLANs can be combined into one network bundle, the network bundle being a unit network for priority specification. In addition, multiple network bundles may be available for network assignment on a particular network controller (e.g., network switch). For example, the preferred network of a client may be comprised of several individual VLANs. Thus, the client can be assigned to any of the constituent VLANs included in the preferred network bundle.
