A network system and a method are for controlling access from a first network component to at least one second network component, with the first network component and the at least one second network component being connected via a network. The method includes calculation of a unique user identification for a user of the first network component by the first network component and registration of an order from the user to the first network component by the first network component, with the order being dependent on a link to the at least one second network component via the network. The method further includes transmission of a request, created by the first network component on the basis of the order, together with the unique user identification by the first network component via the network to the second network component and detection of the unique user identification attached to the request, by the second network component. Additionally, the method includes creation of a rights checking instruction by the second network component on the basis of the detected unique user identification; transmission of the rights checking instruction by the second network component via the network to the first network component; checking of the access authorization of the user to the second network component by the first network component on the basis of the rights checking instruction; and transmission of a result of the check by the first network component via the network to the second network component. Finally, the method includes the provision of the access for the user to the second network component by the second network component when the transmitted result of the check indicates that the user is authorized for access to the second network component.
A method for controlling access from a first network component to at least one second network component, the first network component and the at least one second network component being connected via a network, the method comprising:
A network system, comprising:
A first network component for use in a network, the first network component being connected via the network to at least one second network component having a first access controller designed to calculate a unique user identification for a user of the first network component and to emit this to a first application for the first network component, the first application being designed to create an order for the user with the first network component, dependent on a link to the second network component via the network, to create a request to the second network component on the basis of the order and to transmit the request together with the unique user identification via the network to the second network component and the first access controller further being designed to check the access authorization of the user to the second network component on the basis of a rights checking instruction created by the second network component as a consequence of the transmitted unique user identification and is transmitted to the first network component, and to transmit a result of the check via the network to the second network component.
A second network component for use in a network, the second network component being connected via the network to at least one first network component, having a second access controller in order to detect a unique user identification for a user of the first network component, to create a rights checking instruction on the basis of the unique user identification, and to transmit the rights checking instruction via the network to the first network component, the second access controller further being designed to provide access for the user to the second network component when a result transmitted by the first access controller of a check of the rights checking instruction indicates that the user is authorized for access to the second network component.
