Abstract:
Authentication problems often occur when a user of a terminal visits a communications network while roaming. A method is therefore provided for authorizing an authenticated user of a communications terminal. The terminal is configured to connect to a packet-switching network via an access gateway over a current network to which the terminal is connected. The method is implemented by a current authentication server over the current network and includes: receipt of a user authorization request from the access gateway, including an identifier of the user; transmission of a user authorization response to the access gateway, including parameters for authorizing the user, and a unique identifier of an authentication server that authenticated the user.

Claim (Index 6):
A device for authorizing an authenticated user of a communications terminal, the terminal being configured to connect to a packet switching network through an access gateway to which the terminal is attached in a current network, the device being implemented by a current authentication server in the current network and comprising:\n a processor; and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, which when executed by the processor configure the device to perform acts comprising:\n receiving a user authorization request originating from the access gateway, comprising an identifier of the user, \n sending a user authorization response destined for the access gateway, comprising authorization parameters in respect of the user, and a unique identifier of an authentication server that authenticated the user, \n and, if the current authentication server is in a visited network which is visited by the terminal, and if the user has been authenticated by another authentication server in a home network of the terminal, the following acts:\n transmitting the authorization request to the other authentication server, \n obtaining an item of information relating to an authorization to allocate an anchor gateway situated in the visited network and intended to connect the user terminal to the packet switching network, and \n including in the user authorization response a unique address of the current authentication server.
