  • Publication number: 20050207397
    Abstract: For alternate operation of a terminal (EG1) at at least two communication nodes (GK1, GK2), the terminal (EG1) is first registered with a first of the communication nodes (GK1). In this case, registration is followed by there being a logical connection between the terminal (EG1) and the first communication node (GK1). The obtainability of the first communication node (GK1) is monitored, and in the event of the first communication node (GK1) being unobtainable a status information item relating to the unobtainability is produced, and the status information item is taken as a basis for setting up a logical connection between the terminal (EG1) and the second communication node (GK2). The terminal (EG1) is then automatically operated at the second communication node (GK2).

  • Publication number: 20050050192
    Abstract: To assign clients (CSA, CSB, CSC, C1, C2, C3, CL) distributed across a plurality of subnetworks (SNA, . . . ,SND) to a server (SRV), one of the clients is first selected in a respective subnetwork (SNA, . . . ,SND). According to the invention, a search is carried out across the subnetworks by a respective selected client (CSA, CSB, CSC) for other selected clients and for the server (SRV), whereby when it locates the server (SRV), the selected client stores server address information (SA) identifying said server and when it locates another selected client, it requests the server address information (SA) from that client and stores it on receipt. The stored server address information (SA) is transmitted by the selected client (CSA, CSB, CSC) to one or a plurality of other selected or non-selected clients (CSA, CSB, CSC, C1, C2, C3, CL).

  • Publication number: 20050018620
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for registering a terminal device (EG1, EG2) on a communications node (KN1, KN2) in a communications network. A plurality of communications nodes (KN1, KN2) are disposed in the communications network, and the terminal device (EG1, EG2) is registered with one of the communications nodes (KN1, KN2). In a first step, the communications nodes (KN1, KN2) and their access parameters are registered in an information memory (DB). The terminal device (EG1, EG2) then accesses the information memory (DB), whereupon the transfer of the access parameters of at least one of the communications nodes (KN1, KN2) to the terminal device (EG1, EG2) takes place. Finally, the terminal device (EG1, EG2) is registered using the obtained access parameters with the one of these communications nodes (KN1, KN2).

  • Publication number: 20050002342
    Abstract: In order to configure a device (EG) in a data network (LAN), an address for an address assignment server (DHCP) is first of all stored in the device (EG). The device (EG) then transmits an inquiry message, which includes a distinguishing data record, to an address assignment server (DHCP). In a further step, as the response to the inquiry message, the address assignment server (DHCP) transmits address information for a parameter server (ADS) associated with the device (EG) to this device (EG), and this address information is stored in a freely useable data field. The device (EG) then uses the address information to produce a connection to the parameter server (ADS). The parameter server (ADS) uses this connection to transmit to the device (EG) parameters which are used for configuration of the device (EG).

  • Publication number: 20030226110
    Abstract: Structured documents are dynamically generated on a host computer which communicates with a client and is preferably configured in an “embedded system” architecture. Requirement data from the client is received at the host computer and request parameters are extracted therefrom. The request parameters are mapped by a control module onto a command set of an architecture-specific interface module of the host computer. The structured document is then generated dynamically, using at least one template document which contains service takers. The service takers are executed in a runtime environment of the interface module, with reference to the mapped request parameters, and define contents or structure of the structured document after they have been executed. The dynamically generated structured document is then transferred to the client.

  • Publication number: 20030110309
    Abstract: A central method is used to access a user identifier which denotes a user who is using or wishes to use an operating resource whose function is provided by an application program. The central method is used to store a configuration identifier for the user identifier, the configuration identifier being able to be used to carry out a configuration method.
