The method may further include verifying received configuration information from the connected network, wherein verification comprises determining whether the received configuration information is signed with a digital certificate that corresponds to the at least one certificate in the accessed registry entry.

Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus, comprising a receiver configured to receive from a second apparatus over a first radio interface a first message comprising a registration request, a transmitter configured to transmit a second message to the second apparatus over the first radio interface, the second message comprising an acknowledgement of the registration request, and a processor configured to reserve an interface identifier for the second apparatus, wherein the processor is configured to not allow the reserved interface identifier to be used by further nodes over at least one further radio interface.

Abstract: A mechanism for routing in a network is described. The mechanism comprising receiving a request from a node; obtaining, based on the received request, an identifier relevant to said node; allocating a first local prefix; setting a first timer indicating a length of time the first local prefix or an address comprising the first local prefix is valid; setting a second timer indicating a length of time the first local prefix or the address comprising the first local prefix is preferred when the first local prefix or the address is valid; and sending a first message comprising said identifier, said first local prefix and said first timer to a network element.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for enabling assignment of a common network address to multiple network interfaces of a computing device attached to a network domain. An apparatus (302) may include a processor (310) configured to send a message to a mobility access gateway (306) comprising a request that a mobile host device (302) be assigned a common network address for simultaneous use on multiple network interfaces of the mobile host device through which the mobile host device is attached to the network domain. The processor may be further configured to receive a message comprising network address information from the mobility access gateway indicating that the mobile host device has been assigned a common network address for simultaneous use on multiple network interfaces of the mobile host device through which the mobile host device is attached to the network domain. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and portable electronic device for accessing a remote computer. The portable electronic device, e.g. a specially configured Universal Serial Bus (USB) device comprises an interface configured to connect the portable memory device with a local electronic device. The portable electronic device further comprises a memory configured to store the needed software and settings for establishing a remote connection from the portable memory device to a remote computer when connected to the local electronic device, the software and settings enabling the remote computer to appear as a local memory storage to the local electronic device.

Abstract: A method and a system opens a network connection using solicitation triggers. A terminal device that is connecting to a communication network sends a network connection request to a mobile network communication device and forms a connection between the terminal device and the mobile network communication device. The terminal device sends a network initialization signal in order to connect to the desired network. The mobile network communication device uses a pre-configured network connection for forwarding the network initialization signal to the desired network. The desired network will respond by returning necessary network information that is forwarded to the terminal device.

Abstract: Various methods for communications traffic breakout are provided. One example method comprises generating packets for transmission from a first source of a client device via a bearer service between the client device and a server, and generating packets for transmission from a second source of the client device via the bearer service. The example method also includes directing transmission of packets from the first and second sources via the bearer service to a middlebox. The middlebox may be configured to forward packets from the first source to the server via the bearer service, and breakout, from the bearer service, packets from the second source and route the packets from the second source to a separate network. Similar and related example methods and example apparatuses are also provided.

Abstract: A method for allocating the same network address to a first network interface and to a second network interface of a host is described. The method includes connecting the host to a first network (RANI) via the first network interface and connecting the host to a second network (RAN2) via the second network interface. Then a network address is assigned to the first network interface and the same network address is assigned to the second network interface. The host indicates its intention to move a session to the second network interface.
