Authentication method, authentication system, and gateway device

本发明有关一种认证方法及系统，可用于在第二网络(9)中识别第一网络(2)的用户(1)，其中第二网络(9)中的一个地址被分配给该用户(1)。第二网络(9)中的地址与用户标识之间的映像关系信息被创建并送到第二网络(9)。这样，在第一网络(2)与第二网络(9)之间就建立起一个认证服务器连接，使得用户标识可被传送到第二网络(9)。因此，第二网络(9)中的VAS平台就能收到第二网络中的地址以及用户(1)的用户标识，从而为了计费和/或寻址可对该VAS平台的用户接入业务进行识别。 The present invention relates to an authentication method and system for identifying a subscriber ( 1 ) of a first network an address of the second network ( 9 ) is allocated to the subscriber ( 1 ). An information about a mapping between the address of the second network ( 9 ) and a subscriber identity is generated and transmitted to the second network ( 9 ). Thereby, an authentication server connection is provided between the first network ( 2 ) and the second network ( 9 ), such that the subscriber identity can be handled over to the second network ( 9 ). Thus, a VAS platform of the second network ( 9 ) can receive the address of the second network and the subscriber identity of the subscriber ( 1 ), such that subscriber accessing services of the VAS platform can be identified for charging and/or addressing purposes.
