A method, system and devices are provided for location update in an e.g. WiMAX based network. An authenticator function is informed on the location of a data path function after a handover has taken place.

Method, system and device for location update in networks

It is disclosed a method (and related apparatus) comprising transmitting, after a network entry authentication procedure, between an access network gateway entity and one of a terminal and a serving entity, generated terminal mobility restriction information in the form of at least one text information element comprised in an authentication notification message, and receiving the terminal mobility restriction information; and a method (and related apparatus) comprising transmitting, via network entity management procedures, terminal mobility restriction information in the form of at least one additional leaf node being added to a network entity management object, and receiving the terminal mobility restriction information.

Methods, apparatuses, system, related computer program product and data structures for informing of roaming restrictions

A method provides service quality in a WiMAX communication network, and a method selects an access transport resource control function by a guideline decision-making function in a communication network. According to a method for providing service quality on an air interface of an access network in a WiMAX communication network by an application function, the application function aims to provide a user of the WiMAX communication network with a service quality-related application. The desired service quality is signaled by an authentication, authorization and accounting infrastructure of the WiMAX communication network.

In order to transmit Ethernet transmission protocol-based data packets between at least one mobile communication unit and a communication system via generic route encapsulation tunneling established between a home agent unit and a foreign agent unit, at least one GRE key provided for establishing generic route encapsulation tunneling is linked to the media access control address assigned to the mobile communication unit.

Method for the transmission of ethernet transmission protocol-based data packets between at least one mobile communication unit and a communication system

A method for accessing a wireless communication network is described, comprising collocating a Proxy Agent apparatus with an Access apparatus and determining in a Mobile Gateway apparatus an address of the Access apparatus. The Proxy Agent apparatus comprises information about a Master apparatus, the Master apparatus being adapted for executing a master function. The method further comprises indicating a message, to be handled by the master function, as a master function message and sending the master function message to the address of the Access apparatus. Furthermore, the method comprises diverting in the Access apparatus the master function message to the Proxy Agent apparatus and forwarding the master function message to a Proxy Relay apparatus for relaying the master function message to the Master apparatus.

Method and communication system for accessing a wireless communication network

A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for enabling assignment of a common network address to multiple network interfaces of a computing device attached to a network domain. An apparatus () may include a processor () configured to send a message to a mobility access gateway () comprising a request that a mobile host device () be assigned a common network address for simultaneous use on multiple network interfaces of the mobile host device through which the mobile host device is attached to the network domain. The processor may be further configured to receive a message comprising network address information from the mobility access gateway indicating that the mobile host device has been assigned a common network address for simultaneous use on multiple network interfaces of the mobile host device through which the mobile host device is attached to the network domain. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.

Assignment of a common network address to multiple network interfaces of a computing office

Apparatus and method for an efficient handover of at least one user equipment from a first access node to at least one further access node of a plurality of access nodes in a telecommunications system, said method comprising the steps of: said first access node, upon reception of a handover request from said user equipment, preparing a group of further access nodes of said plurality as possible target access nodes, upon attachment of said user equipment to said one further access node, said one further access node transmitting a message to said first access node, and upon reception of said message by said first access node, said first access node transmitting a further message to said possible target access nodes.

Method and apparatus for providing an efficient handover in a telecommunications system

The invention describes a method for transmission of a DHCP message between a telecommunication network, especially a telecommunication network according to the WiMAX-standard, and an Internet Protocol (IP) subscriber (SS/MS; MN) to the telecommunication network. Therein, an information secured with an encryption key is added to the DHCP message. The encryption key is derived from a basic key being provided by a network component of the telecommunication network.
