Abstract
This specification presents methods and apparatus in a device and a network node implementing a Bootstrapping Server Function, BSF, for enabling multiple service functions/clients in the device sharing a common public identity and each performing its own registration to one or more (IMS) core network, to use a common bootstrapping of application security based on the Generic Bootstrapping Architecture, GBA/Generic Authentication Architecture, GAA, infrastructure. Therefore, when using Extensible Markup Language, XML, Configuration Access Protocol, XCAP, or the likes, the multiple service functions in the device use the same authentication method for all XCAP traffic or the likes, such as GBA/GAA but enabling it to use the same key sets (e.g., same B-TID).
