ABSTRACT:
A secure arrangement in which stations in a communications network are informed of the addresses of their neighbors by means of identifying messages transmitted by the stations. To prevent the insertion of illegitimate stations into the network, the system makes use of passwords included in the station-identifying messages. In networks where eavesdropping is possible, the passwords are encrypted versions of the identities of the stations transmitting the messages and in systems where stations can also be impersonated, the encrypted passwords also include time stamps.
