A client node (CN) requests content from an access node (AN). Rule set ACR_CN is provided to CN and AN and ACR_AN is used by AN. A request sent by CN in violation of ACR_CN may be blocked and cause AN to block subsequent requests from CN that would be allowed per ACR_CN. A request blocked according to ACR_AN but not ACR_CN is blocked but subsequent requests may still be allowed according to ACR_CN and ACR_AN. Authenticated distribution of the ACR_CN and ACR_AN may be performed in cooperation with a controller using authenticated tokens (AT).
