Access authorization management system, relay server, access authorization management method, and computer program

摘要

A system and method for performing reliable access limitation in communication via a network are realized. In communication among communication processing devices via a communication network, a relay server such as a home server verifies and examines an attribute certificate of the access source, and determines whether or not the access source is a permitted member of the access destination. Only when the access source is permitted by the access destination, a name resolution process is performed, and the address information of the access destination is notified to the access source. A group attribute certificate in which the domain name and the host name of the access source are described is used, and the address corresponding to the domain name and the host name is updated.
