Abstract :
Open gate is an access control system of the captive portal type for mobile LAN users. Open gate has benefits such as simple user interface, easy administration and so on. It supports IPv6 and Shibboleth single-sign-on authentication. We have been operating Open gate over 10 years without serious problems. Open gate is running on virtual machine environments. Virtual machine environments enable Open gate to be a cloud system for user authentication. The cloud Open gate provides opportunities for small organizations to have their own access control systems without self-operations.
