  Multipartite entanglement plays a crucial role for the design of the Quantum
Internet, due to its peculiarities with no classical counterpart. Yet, for
entanglement-based quantum networks, a key open issue is constituted by the
lack of an effective entanglement access control (EAC) strategy for properly
handling and coordinating the quantum nodes in accessing the entangled
resource. In this paper, we design a quantum-genuine entanglement access
control (EAC) to solve the contention problem arising in accessing a
multipartite entangled resource. The proposed quantum-genuine EAC is able to:
i) fairly select a subset of nodes granted with the access to the contended
resource; ii) preserve the privacy and anonymity of the identities of the
selected nodes; iii) avoid to delegate the signaling arising with entanglement
access control to the classical network. We also conduct a theoretical analysis
of noise effects on the proposed EAC. This theoretical analysis is able to
catch the complex noise effects on the EAC through meaningful parameters.
