The University of Alberta, located in Edmonton, the capital of the province of Alberta, is one of Canada's largest research institutions. Placing an equally strong emphasis on network security, the university's Faculty of Engineering realized the need to create the most secure network for their unique communication needs while providing personalized network services to users. As noted, controlling access to valuable information was a key requirement for them. Hip's leadership on the 802.1X protocol put them far ahead of the competition. University of Alberta worked with HP ProCurve to implement a guest virtual local area network (VLAN), which allows user access to certain systems and services based on their unique user profile.
