Abstract

Example techniques described herein can permit network terminals to respond to initialization failures, e.g., failures associated with specific types of access networks. A terminal can receive, from a core network device, an initialization-failure message indicating the core network devices lacks valid information of a particular type, e.g., location information, associated with the terminal. The terminal can enable its information-determining function of the terminal, e.g., a location sensor, and determine information of the type using the information-determining function. The terminal can transmit, to the core network device, an initialization message comprising the first information. In some examples, the initialization message can include a Presence Information Data Format Location Object (PIDF-LO) record indicating the location of the terminal.
