Abstract:
A network address of a computing device is obtained, and an unencrypted request is sent to a resource access manager of a particular network. If both a response is received from the resource access manager and the computing device has a network address within a desired range of network addresses, then a determination is made that the computing device is inside the particular network. Otherwise, a determination is made that the computing device is outside the particular network.
