Abstract:
This document discloses a solution for enabling biometric authentication of a station. According to an aspect, the solution comprises transmitting, from the station, a trigger to include biometric data of a user of the station in authentication; a logic at a network node to handle the trigger and cause execution of an authentication procedure that employs the biometric data when performing said authentication procedure in a wireless access network; and indicating a result of the authentication to the station.
