Abstract: Policies are used when performing a transaction between a first and a second device, the first device having an established trusted communication relation with a first trusted device and the second device having an established trusted communication relation with a second trusted device, and the first and the second trusted device each having an established trusted communication relation with a third trusted device. A policy defines a set of constructs for creating rules to control the boundaries of a transaction. The policy defines role definition stipulating what interacting identities must have been validated as for the transaction to occur. The policy also defines a set of digest method algorithms or data referral methods to be used in the transaction.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method in a communications system for enabling authentication of a sender device and a receiver device in the communication system, wherein the sender device is associated with a self-generated first identity and a first master device, the receiver device is associated with a self-generated second identity and a second master device and wherein the authentication is enabled by utilizing the first master device and the second master device for the sender device and the receiver device to verify the identities of each other. In one embodiment, both the sender device and the receiver device are also associated with a third device ant the third device is used in addition to the master devices for verifying said identities. There is also disclosed a method In a sender device, a method in a receiver device, a method in a third device, a sender device, a receiver device, a third device, and a computer program product for the same.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the problem with packet based services consuming considerable bandwidth over links with shortage of bandwidth. The object of the present invention is to reduce the amount of information when transferring a signalling message and thus save bandwidth. After receiving a signalling message in a first node the signalling message is identified. The signalling message is replaced by an indicator, under usage of information from the identification, which indicator is transferred to a second node. The second node restores the signalling message using the indicator.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for providing radio access bearer services for different applications in a network having a core network and a radio access network through radio access bearers between the networks are presented. One or more session traffic flows being sent by an application are identified, the identified session is characterized in the form of parameters needed for the determination of the one or more radio access bearers. The characterized parameters are converted into radio access bearer attributes. One or more radio access bearers defined by the attributes are requested and established. Each session is mapped onto a correct radio access bearer established upon receiving the request. The one or more radio access bearers are released when no longer needed.

Abstract: A communication system comprises user end points, a network, and an intermediate end point, the user end points being connected to the network via different link-layers. A session is invitated by a first user with a second user by means of an invitation signal from the first user over the network. The invitation is received by an intermediate point in the network, which allocates an invitation identity to the invitation. The intermediate point then forwards the invitation together with the invitation identity to the second user over the network. The second user receives the information about the invitation together with the invitation identity, and selects end point and/or access configuration for responding to the session invitation. The second user then responds to the request with the selected end point and/or access configuration by appending the invitation identity. The intermediate point associates the response with said invitation signal and establishes the session.
