Abstract:
In one embodiment, a server receives an authentication request from a device in a computer network, and authenticates the device. Then, upon receiving a service announcement from the authenticated device, the server determines authenticity of the service announcement from the authenticated device, and redistributes the service announcement into the computer network only when the service announcement from the authenticated device is an authentic service announcement.
