Patent

CA 2379677

A telecommunications system and method is disclosed for implementing a Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) (160) for an Internet Service Provider (ISP) (135) at the subscriber premises. This PEP (160) enforces policies with respect to authentication of subscribers, authorization to access and services, accounting and mobility of the subscribers. These policies are defined by the ISP operator in a Policy Decision Point (PDP) (170), which is a server connected to the Internet (140) that communicates with the PEP (160). In addition, the ISP (135) can supply an encryption key for the PEP (160) and an encryption key for a particular subscriber (100). Thus, all communications between the subscriber (100) and the PEP (160), as well as between the PEP (160) and the PDP (170) can be encrypted.

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de télécommunications permettant de mettre en oeuvre un point d'application de politique (PEP) (160) pour un fournisseur de service Internet (ISP) (135) au niveau des immeubles d'abonné. Ce PEP (160) applique des politiques concernant l'authentification d'abonnés, l'autorisation d'accès et de services, la facturation et la mobilité des abonnés. Ces politiques sont définies par l'opérateur ISP d'un point de décision stratégique (PDP) (170) qui est un serveur connecté à l'Internet (140) et communiquant avec le PEP (160). En plus, l'ISP (135) peut délivrer une clé de chiffrement pour le PEP (160) et une clé de chiffrement à un abonné particulier (100). Ainsi, toutes les communications entre l'abonné (100) et le PEP (160), ainsi qu'entre le PEP (160) et le PDP (170) peuvent être codées.
