Abstract
A subscription proxy receives, from an end user system, a request for a resource provided by a content delivery network, the request comprising a local credential associated with the end user system. The subscription proxy identifies a remote credential associated with the content delivery network and corresponding to the local credential. The subscription proxy replaces the local credential in the request with the corresponding remote credential and sends the request for the resource with the remote credential to the content delivery network.
