Abstract
A method at a network element for processing a first message destined for an intelligent transportation system station, the method including receiving from a sending entity, or generating, the first message at the network element; based on a source or contents of the first message, performing one of: discarding the first message; or modifying the first message to provide an indication to the intelligent transportation system station of checks the intelligent transportation system does not need to perform, thereby creating a second message; and forwarding the second message to the intelligent transportation system station.
Claims20
A method at a network element for processing a first message, the method comprising:
- performing a plurality of checks on the first message, the first message being destined for an intelligent transportation system station being an endpoint associated with a road user, the plurality of checks being performed on behalf of the intelligent transportation system station;
- modifying the first message, the modifying removing security information from the first message, thereby creating a second message having an implicit indication that security checks have been performed;
- and
- forwarding the second message to the intelligent transportation system station;
- wherein the network element is separate from and trusted by the intelligent transportation system station.
A network element configured for processing a first message, the network element comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a communications subsystem,
- wherein the network element is configured to:
- perform a plurality of checks on the first message, the first message being destined for an intelligent transportation system station being an endpoint associated with a road user, the plurality of checks being performed on behalf of the intelligent transportation system station;
- modify the first message, the network element configured to modify by removing security information from the first message, thereby creating a second message having an implicit indication that security checks have been performed;
- and
- forward the second message to the intelligent transportation system station;
- wherein the network element is separate from and trusted by the intelligent transportation system station.
A non-transitory computer readable medium for storing instruction code for processing a first message, which, when executed by a processor of a network element cause the network element to:
- perform a plurality of checks on the first message, the first message being destined for an intelligent transportation system station being an endpoint associated with a road user, the plurality of checks being performed on behalf of the intelligent transportation system station;
- modify the first message, the network element being caused to modify by removing security information from the first message, thereby creating a second message having an implicit indication that security checks have been performed;
- and
- forward the second message to the intelligent transportation system station;
- wherein the network element is separate from and trusted by the intelligent transportation system station.
