CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT OUTSIDE A COVERAGE AREA

摘要

According to some embodiments, a wireless communication device within a coverage area of a first network is configured to act according to first configuration information associated with the first network. The wireless communication device detects when it has moved outside the coverage area of the first network and, in response, applies an out-of-coverage configuration management rule. The rule indicates how to manage the first configuration information outside the coverage area of the first network.

主权项

1. A method for managing configurations in a wireless communication device, the method comprising:
determining that the wireless communication device is within a coverage area of a first network comprising a first access node; configuring the wireless communication device to act according to first configuration information associated with the first network; determining an out-of-coverage configuration management rule for the first configuration information, the out-of-coverage configuration management rule indicating how to manage the first configuration information if the wireless communication device moves outside the coverage area of the first network; detecting that the wireless communication device has moved outside the coverage area of the first network; in response to detecting that the wireless communication device has moved outside the coverage area of the first network, applying the out-of-coverage configuration management rule.
