Abstract
Methods are disclosed for provisioning and/or controlling operator profiles in terminals, each having an integrated circuit card identified by an integrated circuit card identifier. According to one aspect, a discovery server is configured with an authorization table including associations of integrated circuit card identifier, service provider identifier, and operator identifier(s). The discovery server receives, from a data preparation node, an event registration request that includes a number of elements. The discovery server determines whether the event is authorized. If so, the event is registered. This enables a terminal to seek to retrieve the event, to contact the data preparation node, and to eventually perform the profile operation. Some embodiments enable the network-initiated provisioning and/or controlling of operator profiles in machine-to-machine devices.
