SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SUBSCRIPTION AND POLICY PROVISIONING

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for subscription and policy provisioning.SOLUTION: Wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) access points (APs) can advertise their support of both OMA-DM and SOAP-XML protocols by including protocol capability information in a broadcast or probe response message. The protocol capability information indicates that the Wi-Fi AP supports both OMA-DM and SOAP-XML protocols. The broadcast message may be an Access Network Query Protocol (ANQP) message, a beacon message, or some other generic advertisement services (GAS) message. Wi-Fi APs can also specify which WLAN type is preferred by a network operator by including a WLAN access type indication in a broadcast or probe response message.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
