Abstract

A method for configuring enterprise gateways includes determining an enterprise internet protocol (IP) address that identifies the interface of an enterprise gateway. The interface couples to one or more components of an enterprise network. An enterprise domain name associated with the enterprise network is determined. An address for a border gateway within an operator network is determined. The operator network links the enterprise gateway to the one or more mobile nodes. A configuration request is communicated to the border gateway. The configuration request includes the enterprise domain name. Operator configuration information is received from the border gateway. The operator configuration information includes an access point name assigned to the enterprise network and for use by the mobile nodes to request access to the enterprise network.
