Abstract
A first communication unit receives an encrypted transmission from a second communication unit. The encrypted transmission was encrypted by the second communication unit using a first encryption key. The first communication unit compares the first encryption key to an encryption key associated with the first communication unit. If the first encryption key matches the encryption key associated with the first communication unit, the first communication unit processes the encrypted transmission further. If the first encryption key does not match the encryption key associated with the first communication unit, the first communication unit compares the first encryption key to an encryption key associated with the second communication unit. If the first encryption key matches the encryption key associated with the second communication unit, the first communication unit processes the encrypted transmission further; otherwise, the first communication unit does not process the encrypted transmission further.
