METHOD FOR CONNECTING BETWEEN ENTITIES BY POINTING AND DRM DOMAIN SYSTEM

摘要

A method for making a connection among entities via pointing and a DRM domain system are provided to manage connection relationships systematically among entities even though plural license servers and one domain server exist when providing a DRM mutual service. A method for making a connection among entities via pointing comprises the following several steps. A license server receives a credential from a client at the client's request for authentication, and checks effectiveness of the credential(S1). If there is no problem in the effectiveness, the license server generates an authentication token via the received credential, generates a license account by using the authentication token, and stores the generated license account(S2). The license server receives pointing information which can connect the license account to other entities(S3). Then, the license server points the license account according to the license information(S4). The license server checks the license account and its related domain account(S5). The license server provides various services requested by the client(S6).
