Abstract
Allowing for pre-location of authentication information to a switching node before a mobile telephone starts to register on that switching node. Where the switching node is part of a mobile telecommunication system having a plurality of switching nodes. The pre-location of authentication information allows the authentication information to be distributed to switching nodes in a distributed telecommunication switching system before peak traffic conditions arise. A user of a mobile telephone can directly specify the time and place for the pre-location of authentication information, or the switching node to which the mobile telephone is assigned can statistically determine the other switching nodes to which authentication information will be pre-located and the day and time of the pre-location.
