Abstract

A first server device may receive, from a second server device, a unique identifier (ID) relates to content stored by the second server device; determine a policy based on the unique ID; generate a policy tag identifying the determined policy; and output the policy tag to the second server device. Outputting the policy tag may cause the second server device to apply the policy tag to a packet associated with the content, and output the packet towards a requesting user device that requests the content.
