摘要： A system and method for determining entitlement to content residing on a server. A subscriber account with a multi-channel video program distributor (MVPD) includes subscription information indicative of the services provided by the MVPD to the subscriber. A computing device operated by the subscriber sends a request for access to content controlled by the MVPD. The request is received by the MVPD and forwarded to an entitlements server. The entitlement server sends an access granted message to the MVPD when the subscriber is entitled to receive the requested content. The IP address of the subscriber computing device is used to determine whether the computing device is connected to the network via a network access device authorized by the MVPD. The “on-net” or “off-net” status of the computing device may be used to determine whether the subscriber receives the requested content and/or a quality of service level applied to the content.

摘要翻译： 用于确定驻留在服务器上的内容的授权的系统和方法。 具有多频道视频节目分配器（MVPD）的订户帐户包括指示由MVPD向用户提供的服务的订阅信息。 由用户操作的计算设备发送对由MVPD控制的内容的访问请求。 该请求由MVPD接收并转发给授权服务器。 当用户有权接收所请求的内容时，授权服务器向MVPD发送访问授权消息。 用户计算设备的IP地址用于确定计算设备是否经由MVPD授权的网络接入设备连接到网络。 可以使用计算设备的“网上”或“非网”状态来确定用户是否接收到所请求的内容和/或应用于内容的服务质量等级。

摘要： A system and method for determining entitlement to content residing on a server. A subscriber computing device operated by a subscriber generates a request for access to a requested content residing on a content access provider server. The subscriber has an account with a multi-channel video program distributor (MVPD) and the account comprises subscription information indicative of the services provided by the MVPD to the subscriber. The content request is received by the content access provider and forwarded to an entitlements server. The entitlement determines whether the subscriber is entitled to receive the requested content based on the subscription information and sends an access granted message to the content access provider server when the subscriber is entitled to receive the requested content.
