Facebook Login Authentication
Facebook Login Authentication allows guests to authenticate using their Facebook account as part of the network login process.
The OAuth authentication flow is facilitated through a shared application endpoint hosted by the manufacturer. Authentication responses are securely forwarded to the operator’s device, where user data may be stored locally according to operator configuration.
Note: Wavertech does not store or retain guest authentication data generated through this feature.
