Hi António,

It does not need to authenticate in the routers, the authentication is 
encapsulated in
packet. The routers just transmit the packets. It is part of the magic of 
TCP/IP.

Hi..

When the web service message passes through several routers how it works?! 
The
message must autenticate in all the routers?! Or should be created a secure
line that connecting the service invoker with the servide proveider?!

Best regards,
