Legacy device registering method, data transferring method and legacy device authenticating method
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method, performed by an adapter that is connected to a legacy device, the method comprising:
- receiving, from the legacy device, unique information of the legacy device uniquely identifying the legacy device;
checking a list that includes unique information of legacy devices that are registrable in a Digital Rights Management (DRM) interoperable domain, using the received unique information of the legacy device;
determining whether the unique information of the legacy device is on the list; and
if the unique information of the legacy device is not on the list, preventing the legacy device from being registered in the domain, or else requesting the manager of the domain to register the legacy device,wherein the legacy device, when registered with the domain, acts as a client in the domain, andwherein the clienttransmits to a controller, a request message that requests transmission of multiple content items from a source to a destination and comprises a transport session identifier that identifies a transport session, whereinthe transmission of the multiple content items is based on a transport protocol that supports transmission of the multiple content items in a single session identified by the transports session identifier,each content item is divided multiple frames, each frame having a header of N bits, N being an integer greater than or equal to 2, the header indicating a length of a payload of the corresponding frame,an index identifying each content item is inserted before the header of a first frame of each content item,an end of each content item is indicated by a separator constructed with a predetermined number of bits having first values, andan end of the transmission of the multiple content items is indicated by an end-of-transmission string constructed with a predetermined number of bits having second values, andreceives an event message from the controller, the event message indicating a current status of transmission of one or more of the multiple content items.

Abstract
A method of registering a legacy device, a method of transferring data, and a method of authenticating a legacy device are provided. The method of registering a legacy device by using a virtual client, which allows the legacy device to access a domain, includes: receiving unique information on the legacy device from the legacy device which requests the domain to register the legacy device; searching a registrable legacy device list including the unique information on the legacy device which can be registered in the domain for the unique information on the legacy device; and requesting a domain manager, which manages the domain, to register the legacy device, when the unique information on the legacy device is included in the registrable legacy device list, and not allowing the legacy device to be registered in the domain when the unique information on the legacy device is not included in the registrable legacy device list.
