Abstract
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may function as a relay between other WTRUs. The relay WTRU may receive a domain name system (DNS) query request from a first WTRU for the internet protocol (IP) address of a second WTRU. The DNS query request may comprise the first WTRU's authentication container. The relay WTRU may: send a first authentication request comprising the first WTRU's authentication container to the second WTRU, receive a first authentication response from the second WTRU indicating successful authentication of the first WTRU and comprising the second WTRU's authentication container, send a second authentication request to the first WTRU comprising the second WTRU's authentication container, receive a second authentication response from the first WTRU indicating successful authentication of the second WTRU, and based on successful authentication of the first and second WTRUs, send a DNS response comprising the IP address of the second WTRU to the first WTRU.
