iberry gives every guest and user on your WiFi a secure login, the right access limits and a complete usage record - Authentication, Authorization and Accounting, managed from the cloud.
AAA stands for Authentication, Authorization and Accounting. It is the framework that decides who may join a WiFi network, what they are allowed to do once connected, and records what they used. On a hotel, campus or enterprise hotspot, AAA is what turns an open wireless network into a controlled, accountable service. RADIUS is the protocol most WiFi equipment uses to talk to the AAA server.
The iberry WiFi platform is built on MikroTik RouterOS hotspot and RADIUS, with the policy and the records kept in the iberry cloud dashboard. Each property's router stays connected to the iberry cloud over an encrypted WireGuard tunnel, so logins, limits and usage are managed centrally instead of router by router.
The three parts of AAA, as the iberry cloud delivers them.
Guests sign in through a branded captive portal using the method that suits the property: a room number and PIN, a printed QR code card that connects in one scan, a one-time password sent by SMS to their mobile, or a login verified against the hotel's PMS.
Every login carries its own policy: speed profiles, data caps, time limits, a free daily allowance that resets at midnight, and automatic expiry at checkout. Individual devices can be blocked or allowed straight through when needed.
Live sessions, data used per room or guest, login history and guest contact records are kept for every property, so you can see exactly who used the WiFi, when, and how much.
Hotel groups and multi-site businesses manage every location's WiFi logins and limits from a single iberry account.
Routers reach the iberry cloud over WireGuard, with tunnel health monitored continuously so a lost link is spotted and repaired quickly.
Guest WiFi access follows the stay: accounts are created for arriving guests and expire when they check out.
Failover and load balancing across multiple ISP links keep the hotspot online when one connection drops.
A Wi-Fi AAA server is the system the router asks, every time someone logs in, whether the login is valid, what limits apply, and where to write down the session. You can run one yourself - FreeRADIUS or a licensed RADIUS product on a server in your building or a data centre - or use one that is run for you in the cloud.
Running your own suits an organisation with a network team that will patch, back up and monitor the server, and keep it online, because when the AAA server stops, nobody can log in. A cloud AAA server moves that job off the property: iberry operates the RADIUS service, the captive portal and the session records centrally, and each site’s MikroTik router reaches it over an encrypted WireGuard tunnel. A group with ten hotels runs one AAA service, not ten.
iberry is a managed cloud AAA service for WiFi. It uses RADIUS on MikroTik RouterOS for hotspot authentication, and adds the portal, policies, reporting and multi-property management on top.
Hotels and resorts, hostels, campuses, offices and any business that offers WiFi to guests or staff and needs to control and record access.
No. Guests connect to the WiFi and log in through the captive portal in their browser, by PIN, QR code, SMS OTP or PMS details.
No. With iberry the AAA server runs in the cloud and your site only needs its router. Nothing is installed in your back office, and adding a property does not mean adding a server.
No. iberry is built for guest and staff WiFi - hotels, hostels, campuses and venues. An ISP billing PPPoE or FTTH subscribers needs a broadband billing and AAA system made for that job.
