An agent device (4) is registered in a first device registry maintained by a first registry apparatus (8) for authenticating agent devices (4) for communicating with application providing apparatuses. The agent device (4) can be assigned to a second device registry maintained by second registry apparatus (80). The method of assignment comprises the first registry apparatus (8) receiving from a requestor device a device assignment request (250). In response to the device assignment request, the first registry apparatus (8) checks whether the agent device (4) is allowed to be assigned to the second device registry (80), and if so, the agent device (4) transmits second authentication information for authenticating the identity of the agent device (4) to the second registry apparatus (80)(290) which registers this in the second device registry. |
