Earlier this year, Alaska became the second state after Hawaii to recognize indigenous languages as official state languages.
The legislature passed a bill granting the designation to 20 Alaska Native languages. Gov. Sean Parnell is expected to sign the measure soon. Supporters hope it will help boost efforts to revitalize those languages, many of which have just a handful of native speakers left. One such effort took place in Juneau last week: A camp that's using sport to keep the Tlingit language alive.
On the basketball court at the University of Alaska Southeast in Juneau, a dozen middle and high school students warm up for their first day of camp. As they stretch near half court, Jessica Chester counts to 10 in Tlingit: "Tléix', déix, nás'k, daax'oon, keijín, tleidooshú, daxadooshú, nas'gadooshú, gooshúk, jinkaat."
Chester teaches Alaska Native languages for the Juneau School District. She's been helping out with Sealaska Heritage Institute's summer basketball camps since 2006. She says all of the drills incorporate at least some Tlingit.
"You know, if they're saying, 'Go get a ball,' I'm going to be behind the coach saying 'kooch'eit'aa…" You know, go get a ball in Tlingit," she says.
Chester's originally from Yakutat, where she grew up hearing elders speak the language. She began studying it herself in college.
Languages carry the ideas, and the feelings, and the emotions and thoughts of a culture, of a people, and so bringing that back is real important to me," she says.
Linguists say fewer than 150 native Tlingit speakers are alive today. Some Alaska indigenous languages have no remaining native speakers. They exist only in written form or as recordings.
Sealaska Heritage Institute is dedicated to advancing the Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian cultures of Southeast Alaska. President Rosita Worl says many Alaska Natives grew up ashamed of their languages and traditions.
"We've had a policy and history in this country to suppress Native languages and suppress Native culture," Worl says.
About 15 years ago, the heritage institute decided to make language preservation its top priority. Worl says the inspiration came after meeting with a group of Hawaiian language preservationists. That state officially recognized indigenous languages in 1978.
"We looked at their programs," Worl says. "And I will tell you, our board of trustees started to cry, because they saw little children speaking the Hawaiian language. And they said, 'If the Hawaiians can do that, we can do that.'"
Now that Native languages are getting official recognition in Alaska, efforts like this camp are expected to grow.
Worl says she no longer worries about the Tlingit language becoming extinct.
"It may be that it will never be spoken as a first language. But we have always said that you'll be hearing the voices of our ancestors through our children," she says.
Michelle Martin's daughter and son are attending the camp for the third time. Martin's from Hoonah, where she picked up some of the language from her grandparents. She says her kids already speak it better than she does.
"I can understand phrases and I know what they're saying," Martin says. "And I try to learn, and I'm like, oh my gosh, I need to go back and learn some more."
Most of the kids say they were initially hooked because of the basketball, but keep coming to learn their language. Jaime Kelley-Paul, 16, says he's not even that interested in sports. Instead, he wants to build up the Alaska Native pride that was almost lost.
It's my culture. I love it," Kelley-Paul says. "It's fun to learn about it. It's important to keep our culture alive instead of just everyone being one type of person."
Kelley-Paul says he can't wait to teach his little brother everything he learned about Tlingit language and culture.

Nationwide Insurance Co. of America can force a dispute with one of its former agents to be heard in Ohio under a forum selection clause despite having participated for years in Texas litigation with the agent, the Texas Supreme Court held Friday.
The Texas Supreme Court on Friday agreed to hear a Dallas-based news and lifestyle magazine's appeal of a decision that kept alive a defamation suit over an article called "The Park Cities Welfare Queen."
A Texas inventor filed suit against intellectual property litigation boutique Matthews Lawson McCutcheon & Joseph PLLC, alleging that he and his co-inventor hired the firm to protect their tanker truck patent, only to see his attorneys and the co-inventor steal the technology and start their own company.
Ironshore Specialty Insurance Co. and the ammonium nitrate maker whose product blew up a Texas fertilizer plant in 2013 dropped dueling suits against each other but left open the possibility that either action could be revived with amended claims, according to a pair of filings in federal court.
The Texas Supreme Court on Friday dismantled a workers' compensation settlement American Home Assurance Co. had reached, saying the insurer's agreement to pay an injured worker supplemental income benefits didn't comply with strict statutory formulas.
The Texas Attorney General's Office announced Friday that it has secured an agreed final judgment and permanent injunction overhauling an immigration firm previously operated by a now-disbarred attorney accused of seeking asylum for immigrants who were ineligible, causing them to be placed in removal proceedings.
The Texas Supreme Court on Friday determined that Union Pacific Railroad Co. is shielded from a worker's suit alleging that he was infected with the West Nile virus on the job, because state common law limits a property owner's liability for harm from indigenous animals.
After failing to come to terms with its first lien lenders on bid procedures for a proposed bankruptcy sale, oil and gas driller Goodrich Petroleum Corp. asked a Texas federal judge for an emergency hearing to approve the company's proposed bidding rules and schedule.
An attorney disbarred for knowingly making false statements and engaging in dishonest or fraudulent conduct in a suit over mineral lease rights had his disbarment upheld by the Texas Supreme Court on Friday.
A Dallas County jury on Thursday, after about a day of deliberations, awarded a $142 million verdict to the family of an infant who died after being swaddled and laid down for a nap.
The Supreme Court of Texas said Friday it will hear a jurisdictional dispute in a lawsuit brought by a PepsiCo Inc. subsidiary over an allegedly secret $308 million asbestos settlement, after an appeals court found the facts of the case were sufficiently connected to Texas despite the companies' nonresident status.
Sony Corp. has agreed to pay Network-1 Technologies Inc. for a license for its ethernet patent to settle Network-1's infringement claim against it in Texas federal court, the Network-1 announced Friday, almost a year after after the Federal Circuit rebuffed Sony's bid to have the patent declared invalid.
The Texas Supreme Court on Friday set a new standard for nuisance claims — a legal concept so unclear that it has been called "the law's garbage can" — in a ruling that remanded for a new trial a $2 million case accusing an EnLink Midstream LLC subsidiary of running too-noisy compressors.
The parents of a young woman who died in a car crash because of an alleged airbag design defect asked the entire Fifth Circuit on Thursday to hear their case, saying a lower court summary judgment in favor of American Honda Motor Co. denied them their right to a civil jury trial.
Milestone Apartments Real Estate Investment Trust has secured $46.2 million in financing from insurance firm Lincoln Financial Group for a pair of multifamily properties in Plano, Texas, according to a Friday announcement from Milestone's broker Holliday Fenoglio Fowler LP.
The Texas Supreme Court said Friday it was judicial error, not attorney negligence, that led to a usury judgment against the lawyers' clients, holding that the Stone & Associates LLP attorneys fighting the resulting malpractice claim couldn't have reasonably anticipated the trial court's error.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday sued the head of Texas oil and gas firm Breitling Energy Corp., claiming that he orchestrated a fraud with seven colleagues that scammed investors out of $80 million over a five-year period and spent millions in investor funds on strip clubs and other personal expenses.
A Minnesota federal judge's decision not to temporarily block implementation of the U.S. Department of Labor's controversial "persuader" rule should have no bearing on a related Texas federal case where business groups are seeking the same result, they argued Thursday.
Proskauer Rose LLP has again urged a Texas federal judge to toss an investor committee's allegations that it helped Robert Allen Stanford conceal his $7 billion Ponzi scheme from investigators, saying the Fifth Circuit has barred nonclients from suing over the firm's representation of Stanford.
The U.S. Supreme Court's deadlock Thursday on a challenge to President Barack Obama's executive actions on immigration puts millions of immigrants in long-term legal limbo and leaves unanswered important questions about presidential power. Here, Law360 breaks down what attorneys should know about the decision.
The Texas Supreme Court's recent decision in Coyote Lake Ranch v. City of Lubbock can be seen as a predictable evolution in the court's approach to groundwater and the need to access this resource in a fair and reasonable manner, says Anthony Cavender at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP.
Professional athletes and those advising them should take a close look at the mistakes Dallas Cowboys running back Darren McFadden made in trusting his former manager and financial adviser, Michael Eugene Vick, who allegedly misappropriated $15 million of McFadden's money, say David Lisko and Philippa Balestrieri of Holland & Knight LLP.
It's important to first decide what your personal brand is. Are you a crusader? A wry observer? A compassionate witness? Your social media presence doesn't have to reflect the deepest aspects of your identity — it's merely an image that you project, says Monica Zent, founder and CEO of Foxwordy Inc.
In the past five years, patent litigation has seen the implementation of the America Invents Act and several significant U.S. Supreme Court cases. These changes have tipped the balance of power a little more in the direction of the accused infringers, and the recent amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure are likely to have a further impact on that balance, say Marc Pensabene and Sarah Pfeiffer of O'Melveny & Myers LLP.
One of the most prevalent complaints by associates and recent law school graduates is the lack of meaningful mentoring by more seasoned attorneys. Gary Gansle, leader of Squire Patton Boggs LLP's Northern California employment law practice, offers several tips as a light that can help junior attorneys start down the right path in their career development.
Law governing LGBT workplace protections is in flux, and largely does not keep pace with the opinion of society. To stay one step ahead, proactive employers should consider taking steps to ensure their workplace is LGBT-supportive. Doing so will not only mitigate future liability, but it will telegraph to employees that management believes in an inclusive and diverse workforce, say Jim McNeill and Peter Stockburger at Dentons.
As affordable housing zoning ordinances proliferate across the country, landowners and developers have an opportunity to shape them to lessen their detrimental impacts, before the ordinance is even adopted, says Chuck Reed, special counsel at Hopkins & Carley and former mayor of San Jose, California.
While the federal government has not enhanced its own equal pay law, the current administration has made clear that equality in the workplace is a priority. State and local governments have taken it upon themselves to create more protections for employees, and there are several different elements employers should consider as they prepare for the possibility of defending cases under the new amendments, say attorneys at Epstein Becker Green LLP.
LeBron James has established his worth by tangible metrics. He cashed in on a free agent bonanza fueled by the NBA's economic model that supports his regal compensation. But such is not the case when it comes to first-year associate salaries of $180,000 at certain law firms and $2,000 an hour billing rates for certain partners, says Mark A. Cohen, founder of Legal Mosaic LLC.
No one understands the concept and obligations of "fiduciary duty" better than legal professionals — and yet, many law firm partners and principals may be overlooking a significant source of liability in their practices, says Tom Zgainer, CEO and founder of America's Best 401k.

Generally speaking, a story contains one or more scenarios about a specific behaviour/feature of the software.

BOSTON, Dec. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Exinda, a global provider of next-generation WAN optimization and application performance assurance solutions, announced today that its WAN Optimization 2.0 and Internet traffic control solutions have been honored with a 2012 University Business Readers' Choice Award.

Understanding the need to balance the priority of learning applications with the necessity of social applications, Exinda delivers user experience assurance by helping administrators understand the context of user (student or faculty), application (learning or social), and time of day (classroom or recreational). With this knowledge in hand, Exinda helps administrators shape prioritization strategies, so both the learning and social experiences benefit from optimum network performance.
"Universities around the world continue to experience an extreme impact from devices and high-bandwidth Internet applications that limit their network resources," said Exinda CMO Nolan Rosen. "Exinda remains committed to providing solutions that allow universities and colleges to prioritize and control bandwidth usage and alleviate these issues. We've very pleased that the university community – and our own customers – have seen the value in including Exinda's solutions in this prestigious list."
The complete list of winning products and solutions has been announced online and in the December issue of University Business magazine.
"The nominations came from a variety of university administrators who have shared their experiences with these products and how they have improved the way their school operates," says University Business Editor-in-Chief Tim Goral of the first annual awards program. "We hope their insight becomes a valuable resource to our readers and helps them solve their biggest challenges on campus."

Wasp Removal Products
If the wasps are in a closed in area, spraying the wasp will probably cause you more grief than getting a fly squatter and trying to hit it when it lands. The safest way to remove a wasp from a closed in area is to spray the area and remove yourself until you are sure that the wasp is dead. If the area is too big, the wasp can be attracted to a sticky pole that attracts flying insects. The safest way of getting rid of a wasp from within a closed in area is to spray it when it lands and remove it carefully when it is dead. A wasp is not one of nature's friendliest insects.
Pests And Pest Management
Here are five of our favorite pest control companies:
There are heaps of pests in this world, and at some position everyone will obtain by themselves battling a pest. Pest can invade our garden, our household, properties the listing goes on and on. Pests can be bugs, plants or animals. Just the mention of fleas, cockroaches, dandelions, mould, mice and rats can elicit strong thoughts. Pests existing a health hazard to your loved ones, animals, and back garden.
It is crucial to know how to appropriately management these pests that invade our lives. It is virtually not possible to remove pests, but it is vital to management these invasive pests. There are various techniques of controlling pests these can involve chemical regulate, organic regulate, mechanical strategies, or a combination thereof.
Mechanical pest handle is ordinarily the most price helpful and if implemented ahead of a huge infestation will take put can produce sought after success. Mechanical methods consist of hand buying (these types of as pulling weeds) and traps (these kinds
f as a mouse trap). Mechanical techniques of pest handle are generally the most environmentally pleasant.
Organic pest regulate involves pesticides that are derived from plants or other the natural way developing substances these as microorganisms.
Chemical pest management features the use of much more harmful artificial pesticides. Chemical pest control is not environmentally friendly and is never regarded as as an natural strategy of management.
"Built-in Pest Administration is the coordinated use of pest and environmental details alongside with readily available pest manage solutions, together with cultural, biological, genetic and chemical solutions, to stop unacceptable concentrations of pest destruction by the most inexpensive indicates, and with the least achievable hazard to people today, property, and the atmosphere". (Proceedings of the Nationwide Integrated Pest Management Forum. 1992. American Farmland Trust)
Integrated Pest Administration stresses the use of complementary procedures of pest management these types of as the introduction of organic predators. This system of pest handle is a lot a lot more ecologically seem than relying on chemical methods.
The initial move in pest handle is to determine the dilemma. Notably when plants are involved, the dilemma might involve very poor developing circumstances instead of an assault from an invasive pest. In some cases pinpointing the pest is clear, if you see a mouse scurrying throughout the floor it is apparent you have will need for pest command. The following stage is to detect how critical the infestation is, or is this just one mouse that has discovered its way into your residence, or is there a household of mice that has taken up habitation in your home. 1 mouse can often conveniently be eradicated making use of a mouse entice or possibly the relatives cat. Even so if you have a significant infestation of mice, you could want to resort to more robust chemical procedures or discover it necessary to hire a experienced exterminator to rid your dwelling of the pest problem.

Rhapsody of the Seas Cruise Review by The macd: First cruise with mixed feelings
Overall Member Rating
First cruise with mixed feelings
Destination: South Pacific
Embarkation: Sydney (Australia)
This cruise was the first cruise that my wife and I had been on. We picked this cruise line after getting it referred by friends. The overall experience was ok but not as good as we expected.
We could not complain about our cabin. It was everything we expected for the price we paid. At the end of the day we were only in there to sleep. Housekeeping come twice a day and kept the room immaculate.
The waiting staff were sensational as well as the housekeeping staff and photography guys. We did try three of the specialty restaurants while on board and I must say they were as good as we have been to here at home. Prices were very good for the quality and service we received. The main dining room staff were very good and could not have made our experience any better. The only negative I have about the main dining room is the US$8.00 charge for a bottle of sparkling water. The park cafe staff behind the counter were very ordinary with a very non friendly attitude. Moving More onto the daily automatic gratitude payment of US$12.00 per day per person. I was not aware that this was optional and was also tipping as I went along. This really added up at the end of 13 nights. The entertainment was poor at best. The entertainment in the theatre of a night was terrible in my opinion. The daily activities were very repetitive for example there is only some many times we can learn how to fold a towel animal.
Overall it was ok but I think I might try another line in the future. Less

Could Your Birth Control Really Decide Who You Date?
Ladies, it's time for some real talk. According to a new study published earlier this month in Psychoneuroendocrinology — which we clearly read daily — women using the birth control pill prefer men with less-masculine faces, compared to non-users. As in, your birth control is indirectly dictating the kinds of men you're interested in and subsequently date. Wild? We know.
In the study, researchers showed a group of women (aged 18-24) images of young, male faces. The women could manipulate the images to their liking, focusing on cheekbone prominence, jaw height, and face width. Scientists also told the participants to alter the male faces so they were most attractive for either a short- or long-term relationship. Women who had been on the pill for three months or more chose men who had less-masculine features, with narrower jawbones and more rounded faces.
What does this all mean, exactly? Not a whole lot, if you'd ask us. The experiment wasn't double blind, and the subjects were just women on the pill, eliminating a large amount of women who use alternative methods of birth control, such as IUDs. Plus, "gendering" face-types, while inherently instinctual, feels slightly problematic. Just because a guy has high cheekbones doesn't mean you like him for it — or even that he's more "ready" for a relationship.
Of course, this is simply a preliminary study, but if further research proves similar points, will it change the national conversation on birth control rights? Over time, would a man's facial features evolve as more women use the pill? (Remember: This is a birth control method that hasn't even been around for a century. If a certain "looking" man was getting a leg up thanks to the pill, you'd think that those genes might become more prevalent.) Even if the study is right, what's the worst that could happen? A bunch of single, masculine guys roaming the streets? We're not too concerned. (Business Insider)

The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for limiting access to network elements. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for limiting access to network elements having disparate operating systems to only those users being authorized to access the respective elements.
Various communication network configurations are known in the art. Typically such communication network configurations include a plurality of different network elements. The network elements can be supplied by various vendors and therefore implement different types of interfaces. Similarly, the different types of network elements, which may be intelligent devices that include some processing capabilities, operate with different operating systems, for example different versions of Unix or DOS or Windows.
One example of an arrangement of network elements is illustrated in FIG. 1. In this particular arrangement a user may have access to various network elements via personal computer (PC) 101. The PC may be coupled to a router 102 via a wide area network (WAN) or local area network (LAN) connection. It would be possible to use TCP/IP transport protocols for initiating communications from the PC. The router can be coupled to different network elements such as a signal control point (SCP) 103, a signal transfer point (STP) 104 and a terminal server 105 which constitutes an additional intelligent device that interfaces to yet additional network elements. Examples of such additional network elements include a voice mail server (VMS) 107, a switch 108 which could be a Lucent Technologies 5ESS switch, and a Signal Access Cross Connect System (DACS) 109. It should be understood that this is merely an example of an arrangement of network elements and is not the sole representation of a configuration in which problems arise that can be addressed by the present invention.
In such network configurations employing a plurality of different network elements, it is difficult to provide a unified solution for limiting access by the user to each and every one of a plurality of the network elements. The problem arises because the different network elements operate with different operating systems and, as indicated before may be supplied by different vendors with different communication specifications. Therefore, typically each individual network element would have to operate some sort of authentication process to determine whether an individual user has access to that particular element. This requires different implementations of authentication processes depending upon the design of the respective network elements.
Another network where this problem arises is in a wireless cellular network where access is needed to a variety of network elements. Again, since the various network elements may have different operating systems with different degrees of authentication capability, it can be difficult to implement a universal solution that will force authentications.
It would be beneficial to have an arrangement by which access could be limited to the disparate network elements using a unified solution that is independent of the operating systems of the respective elements.
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, access to network elements is limited such that one authentication arrangement can service a plurality of network elements. In one specific embodiment, a network authentication key server generates a key of a predetermined length and transmits it to various network authentication nodes, each node being associated with at least one network element. When a user requests access to a given network element, the network authentication key server can detect whether the user is authorized to access the requested network element. If the user is permitted to access the element, then the server can modify the user's request to include the most current network authentication key. The modified request is then forwarded to the network element in question. A network authentication node associated with the requested network element intercepts the modified request and examines it. If the network authentication node determines that the modified request reflects the most current key that the node has received from the key server, then access to the network element is granted. If the authentication node determines that the request does not reflect the appropriate authentication key, then access will be denied. The network authentication nodes can therefore act as gates to the network elements which may be traversed only after a user has been authenticated by the network authentication key server.
In accordance with this arrangement, the network authentication node can operate in a mode that is transparent to both the user and to the network elements. In one embodiment of the invention, the network authentication key server includes a database which is examined to determine which network elements, if any, a given user is permitted to access.
Further advantages and details regarding the present invention will be described below.
FIG. 1 illustrates an example of a communication network arrangement which is known.
FIG. 2 illustrates an example of a communication network such as that shown in FIG. 1, modified to include an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 3 provides a block diagram of one example of an embodiment of a network authentication key server of FIG. 2.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram that illustrates one example of an embodiment of a network authentication node illustrated in FIG. 2.
In accordance with the present invention, authentication techniques are provided in a communication network so as to limit user access to individual network elements which may have disparate operating systems or may be supplied by different vendors. An example of a system employing an embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in FIG. 2. In regard to its network elements, FIG. 2 is very similar to FIG. 1. In fact, like elements in the two figures bear like reference numerals. The new elements in FIG. 2—namely the authentication key server 201 and the network authenticator nodes (NA) 205A, 205B, 205C and 205D—are the elements that provide the access limitation sought in the present invention. (These elements are also referred to herein as "authenticating" and "authenticator" key servers or nodes.) More specifically, the network authenticating key server (NAKS) 201 generates a key. This key can be a multi-bit key, for example 128 bits. In addition, the key can be periodically generated so that a new key is produced at specified time intervals. These are examples of techniques for providing an authentication key and other techniques may be employed. What is significant is that there is some authentication code generated by a server and transmitted to various network authentication nodes for subsequent use by those nodes in deciding whether to allow or deny access to an associated network element.
In regard to the network authentication nodes, it is shown in the figure that each network authentication node is associated with a network element. For example, network authentication node 205A is associated with network element SCP 103. Similarly, network authenticating node 205B is associated with a switch 108. These network authenticator nodes are shown in dashed lines to represent that they are substantially transparent to the rest of the network and to the user. In operation, the network authenticating nodes receive a current key generated by the network authenticating key server. This key is then held by the authenticating node. In a sample embodiment of such a node as shown in FIG. 4, the key can be maintained in a key register, 401. The key could be maintained alternatively in some other device capable of storing the key for at least as long as it takes for a new key to be generated. The network authenticating node may also include a processor 403 and a gate 405 interposed between ports 406 and 407. Operation of the network authenticator node will be described with reference to these elements; however it should be noted that alternative configurations can be provided for the network authenticator which will also provide the functionality of storing a key and then comparing the stored key against a user key.
An example of the network authenticating key server is illustrated in FIG. 3. In this example the server includes a processor 301, a key generator 302, a subscriber database 303 and a port 304. All of the elements are connected to one another via some sort of internal bus architecture. The key generator could be a pseudo-random number generator or any type of key generator known in the art. The processor can assure that keys are periodically transmitted from the key server to the various network authenticating nodes as required by the implementation selected. The subscriber database can be used by the processor so as to determine access privileges of a given user as will be described below.
In operation, once the server has transmitted a key to the various network authentication nodes, it awaits receipt of a user's access request with regard to a given network element. For example, suppose that the user of device 101 seeks access to the voice mail server, VMS 107. The user's request is detected by the network authenticating key server. The authenticating key server either asks for or simply receives information identifying the user. Such information could be constituted by some sort of user id/user password combination. Alternatively, user identification information could be constituted by such things as a calling party telephone number identified by ANI (Automatic Numbering Information). The specific identification information is not critical. What is important is that the server be able to identify the user with reasonable accuracy. Once the user is identified, the server can then examine the subscriber database and determine whether the identified user is authorized to access the network element to which the user's request is directed. If the network authenticating key server detects that the user does not have authorization to access the network element, then the request can be discarded or dropped. If, however, the network authenticating key server determines that the user is authorized to access the network element, then the server can modify the request so as to somehow reflect the current key information which has already been passed on to the various network authenticating nodes.
In one embodiment of the present invention ,the request can be modified to incorporate the actual generated key in either a header or a trailer of the request. Then, when a network authenticating node associated with the requested network element intercepts the request, it can easily strip away the appended key and determine whether that key matches the current key maintained by the network authenticating node. If the keys match, then the node can pass the request through to the network element. In the embodiment of FIG. 4, this would mean that the processor 403, upon detecting that a received request contains a key corresponding to that which is stored in the key register 401, can control the gate 405 to allow the network request to be passed from an input port 406 to an output port 407 and thus on to the network element. The network authenticator is transparent to the user. If the authenticating node does not detect the current key in the user's request, then the request can be dropped by the node and thus never passed through to the requested network element.
Not only is the authenticating node transparent to the user, but the key itself is transparent to the user. The user never receives a copy of the key which is used to allow access to a network element. Instead, the user at best maintains the identification information necessary to represent who the user is and then the network authenticating key server and network authenticating node operate together so as to control access to the requested network element.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the solution of providing this authorization process is hardware-based and operates between a physical and datalink layer of the OSI model. The server can be a general purpose UNIX computer that holds a repository of user identifiers and passwords, along with profiles that specify the network elements which various end users are allowed to access. The authenticator node can be a "black box" that has its own specialized operating system compatible with the server. The node can communicate directly with the server. In addition, in one of the embodiments the key is inserted into the header of the TCP/IP message which constitutes the request for the network element. The key can be changed periodically so that it is possible that a given user will attempt to access the same network element at different times and the server will use different keys at those different times for purposes of permitting access to the network element. In such a circumstance, the user is not ever aware that different keys have been used to authorize the access.
The present invention thus provides flexibility for controlling access to network elements that may be supplied by different vendors and/or may have different operating systems which make providing a unified solution to access control difficult. The solution proposed by the present invention provides equipment that is essentially transparent to the user and avoids placing the access control keys in the hands or control of the user during the authorization process.
While this invention has been described with specific embodiments thereof, it is evident that many alternatives, modifications, and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the preferred embodiments of the invention as set forth herein are intended to be illustrative, not limiting. Various changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
