Zusammenfassung:A method for use in diverse networks that authenticates inter-network resource requests. A router in a first network receives a request for a resource from a second network. The router sends a query to an element in the second network to determine whether the request actually originated there. If the request did originate from the second network, the request is processed according to the procedure for the requested resource. If the request did not originate from the second network, then the first network terminates the request. Thus, no network resources are consumed unnecessarily by accidental or malicious requests.
