IEEE 1244.2-2000

Specify the protocol used to identify, authenticate and establish an initial connection between the software components of the IEEE Media Management System. Details of components of the Media Management System are specified by companion standards.

The Session Security, Authentication, and Initialization protocol enables the IEEE Media Management System to be a secure, distributed system. The protocol allows for future revision of other protocols within the system, and interoperability of an MMS with multiple versions of the different components of the system.

New IEEE Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn. Administratively Withdrawn January 2007 The syntax and semantics of the protocol messages that pass between the MMS clientor MMS module and the MM are described. Since this protocol is only used in the context of theMMS, this standard cannot be understood without a thorough understanding of its architecture asdescribed in IEEE Std 1244.1-2000.
