Abstract
An IP multimedia gateway (IMG) may be operable to identify a client device which may not currently possess a security capability that is compatible with a security capability of a service manager for receiving a service from the service manager. A security process between the client device and the service manager may be enabled by the IMG to enable the client device to receive the service from the service manager. The client device may be local to the IMG or remote with respect to the IMG. The IMG may enable an authentication process between the client device and the service manager by performing authentication translation. The IMG may enable a cryptography process between the client device and the service manager by performing cryptography translation. The IMG may enable an authorization process for authorizing the client device to access a particular content by performing access control conversion.
