摘要:
A mechanism for providing a mobile node with reliable information for location privacy decisions in connection with an address update process that gives the correspondent node a chance to deduce the location of the mobile node is provided. According to one embodiment of the invention, an indication is given when an address update process needs to be performed for optimizing routing between a mobile node and a correspondent node. In response to the indicating step, the correspondent node may be authenticated, the authentication yielding identity information about the correspondent node. Based on the identity information, a route optimization decision may be made based on whether or not the address update process is to be performed, and the address update process may be carried out depending on the decision.

摘要:
There is proposed a network access authentication and authorization mechanism in which an authentication session in an authentication, authorization and accounting procedure for a user equipment for providing an initial network access is executed. A first identification element related to the user equipment is obtained. Then, a user credential validation procedure is performed wherein a second identification element related to the user equipment or related to a user of the user equipment is obtained. The obtained first and second identification elements are processed for determining whether a match between the first and second identification elements exists. In addition, the authentication session executed for the user equipment is identified on the basis of the result of the processing of the first and second identification elements. Then, a change of an authorization of the user equipment is executed for providing a modified network access.

The invention proposes a method for controlling a connection between a first network node and a second network node, wherein the connection is controlled by a packet filtering function filtering packets such that a packet is discarded in case a source address and/or a destination address do not comply with a filtering rule, wherein the packet filtering function is configured at a connection set up, and at least one of the first or second network node is adapted to change its address, the method comprising the steps of informing, the packet filtering function about the new address of the network node having changed its address, and updating the packet filter of the packet filtering function by using the new address of the network node having changed its address. The invention also proposes a corresponding network system comprising at least a network node and a packet filtering network element. Furthermore, the invention proposes a corresponding packet filtering network device.
摘要:
A method for configuring a device for communication is disclosed. In the method the device accesses a communication network where after it may be detected at a network element that the device needs to be provided with at least one configuration parameter. Information regarding the at least one configuration parameter is then determined and sent to the device. The device can then be configured in accordance with information received from the network element.

According to one example embodiment, a method may include determining whether each of a plurality of target base stations is capable of providing a fast ranging opportunity to a mobile station served by the serving base station, and, for each of the plurality of target base stations which is capable of providing the fast ranging opportunity to the mobile station, determining an action time after which the target base station can send an uplink map to the mobile station, the uplink map indicating when the mobile station should send a fast ranging request. The method may also include sending a handover message to the mobile station, the handover message indicating whether each of the plurality of target base stations is capable of providing the fast ranging opportunity to the mobile station and, for each of the plurality of target base stations which is capable of providing the fast ranging opportunity to the mobile station, indicating the action time after which the target base station can send the uplink map to the mobile station.
摘要:
A base station and a method for handover of a mobile station from a serving base station to a target base station of a mobile telecommunication network. Invitations may be sent from a base station to the mobile station, and the invitations may be invitations to send a request for a fast handover procedure from the mobile station to a base station.

The invention allows providing a fixed access point for a terminal device. One of multiple access points is assigned to serve as a fixed access point for a terminal device based on a received identifier of the terminal device. A notification about the assignment of the fixed access point is transmitted to at least one of the terminal device and a gateway node serving the terminal device. As a result, Mobile IP based handover between GPRS and WLAN will be seamless. Furthermore, the invention allows using a dedicated gateway for infected terminals to provide quarantined access to network services.

The present invention concerns a method and system for optimizing transport efficiency between a Mobile Node and a Correspondent Node in a Mobile IP network. A short Mobile Node Identifier is assigned to the Mobile Node. A Mobile Node Identifier Destination Option header comprising the assigned Mobile Node Identifier is used instead of the prior art Home Address Destination Option header in subsequent packets between the Mobile Node and the Correspondent Node.
摘要:
Session continuity is supported by placing suitable functionality in a communications device and a communications system. In a communications device, a first interface is provided for transmitting data via an access network. A virtual interface corresponding to the first interface also is provided. Communications via the access network take place using the first interface and sending data between the first interface and the virtual interface. In a communications network, it is detected that a communications device is establishing communications via an access network. A network address used earlier by the communications device is determined, and the network address is retained when the communications device communicates via the access network.
