Implementation of the DLNA Proxy System for Sharing Home Media Contents

The paper proposes a methodology to provide services for accessing and sharing various media contents securely, those are distributed over consumer electronics (CEs) in the home network. To do so, we propose the DLNA proxy system (DPS) architecture which helps to gather various media information available from the distributed AV devices in the home and to share the media contents across the public IP network via established secure channels. The proxy system is implemented on the home server which acts as media server and the hardware accelerated IP security (IPSec) virtual private network (VPN) is configured on the home gateway which establishes and maintains secure connections between the home and public networks.
