Abstract
A method and article for authenticating a mobile station subscribed to a home network, in a visited network, includes the steps of receiving, at a visited proxy controlled by the visited network, a request to authenticate the mobile station on the visited network. Then, authorizing the mobile station on the visited network based on a parameter in the request and a policy stored on the visited proxy. The proxy communicates a denial of authorization to the visited network when the policy identifies a denial of service and the proxy communicates with the home network the request to authenticate the mobile station on the visited network, when the policy identifies an acceptance of service.
