发明名称 | Inter-domain user and service mobility in SIP/SIMPLE systems | ||
摘要 | A method is described herein for enabling a person (presentity) to maintain their presence/IM service when they take their end-device and move/roam from a home network to a visited network. In one embodiment, while the person is located in the home network 104, their end-device (e.g., laptop, PDA, SIP/soft phone) uploads presence/IM information (e.g., presence rules, watcher list, service profile) from SIP/SIMPLE devices (e.g., presence server, SIP registrar, IM server). Then, after the person has taken their end-device and moved to the visited network, the end-device partially re-registers with the SIP registrar located within the home network. The end-device also partially registers with the SIP registrar located within the visited network. Once these steps are completed, then a person (presence watcher) can obtain presence information about the person (presentity) who is currently located within the visited network. In addition, a person (presence watcher) can send an IM message to the person (presentity) who is currently located within the visited network. | ||

主权项 | 1. A user agent device comprising: a processor and a memory configured to store instructions for execution by the processor, the processor configured to execute the stored instructions for: retrieving presence/IM information associated with the user agent device from SIP/SIMPLE devices located within a home network while the user agent device is located in the home network, wherein the retrieving is initiated by a trigger event where the user agent is relocating from the home network to a visited network; obtaining a new IP address from the visited network when the user agent device is relocated from the home network to the visited network; sending the new IP address in a single SIP REGISTER request to a first SIP registrar located within the home network, the single SIP REGISTER request containing a single CONTACT field that contains both the new IP address from the visited network and instructions to delete an old IP address; and partially registering the user agent device with a second SIP registrar located within the visited network using by sending a SIP REGISTER request to the second SIP registrar in the visited network containing the single CONTACT field that contains both the new IP address and a BODY field that contains authorization/authentication information which was retrieved from the user agent when carried by the user agent from the home network to the visited network. | ||
