Active network has been applied widely recently. The current status is that there is coexistence of multi-PKI in heterogeneous domains. We have noticed there are little work has been done in cross-certification for heterogeneous domains. In this paper, we propose a cross-authentication model for the raised issue. Our system implements mutual entity authentication among heterogeneous domains based on Cert-PKI and ID-PKI. The theoretical analysis and the preliminary experiments demonstrate that the proposed system possesses the properties of high security and stability.
