    Abstract: An access point is configured based on acquired information. An access point may be configured based on the configuration(s) of at least one other access point. An identifier to be transmitted by an access point may be selected based on the identifier(s) transmitted by at least one other access point. An access point may configure itself with assistance from a configuration server. For example, the access point may send information such as the location of the access point to a configuration server and the configuration server may respond with a list of neighboring access points for that access point. A configuration server may provide configuration information to an access point based on the location of the access point. A configuration server also may direct an access point to a different configuration server.

    Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate supporting multiple access modes for a base station in a wireless communication environment. The base station can leverage hybrid, closed, or open access mode. A whitelist of a mobile device that successfully registers on the base station can be selectively updated to include a CSG ID of the base station (708). For example, the CSG ID of the base station can be added to the whitelist when the base station operates in closed access mode, while adding the CSG ID can be skipped when the base station operates in hybrid access mode. According to another example, the CSG ID can be selectively added based upon a received accept cause value. Additionally or alternatively, a CSG ID and an access mode indicator can be transmitted from a base station to a network node for implementing access control and/or paging optimization at the network node.

    Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that fa-cilitate transmitting access point types and/or restricted association parameters using broadcast signals, such as beacons, pilot signals, etc. The type or restricted association information can be indicated by one or more intrinsic aspects of the signal, such as specified parameters. In addition, the type or information can be indicated by one or more extrinsic signal aspects, such as frequency, inter-val, periodicity, etc. Using this information, a mobile device can determine whether an access point implements restricted associa-tion. If so, the mobile device can request an access point or related group identifier before determining whether to establish connec-tion therewith. The identifier can be verified against a list of ac-cessible access points and/or groups to make the determination.
