A method for updating wireless application protocol (WAP) data at an electronic communication device during a mobile internet protocol (MIP) registration process includes processing at an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) server a first access request message that identifies the electronic device (step 805). It is then determined that the electronic device requires updated WAP provisioning (step 810). The AAA server is then changed to a WAP provisioning ongoing state (step 815). An access reject message including updated WAP provisioning data is then transmitted from the AAA server (step 820). A second access request message, including the updated WAP provisioning data is then verified at the AAA server (step 830). The AAA server is then changed to a WAP provisioning valid state (step 835). Finally, an access accept message is transmitted from the AAA server (step 840).
