Abstract:
Fixed network equipment associated with a given private branch exchange provides, and a mobile communication device receives, information that corresponds to compatible interoperation with that private branch exchange, including, for example, a plurality of identifiers including a logical identifier that corresponds to compatible interaction with the private branch exchange. Thereafter, when seeking facilitation of services via that private branch exchange, the mobile communication device can use that logical identifier.
Abstract:
A method and a machine readable storage for handling failures during security exchanges between a station (125) having a wireless network adapter (130) and a first access point (110) of a wireless local area network (WLAN) (105). As part of a WLAN association process, the method can include transmitting from the station to the first access point a message including a station identifier (170). A first protocol exchange timer (180) also can be started. Responsive to a timeout of the first protocol exchange timer, an association retry counter can be incremented. The WLAN association process can be restarted if the association retry counter is not greater than a retry counter threshold. If the association retry counter is greater than the retry counter threshold, the wireless network adapter can be commanded to enter sleep mode.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method (300) and communication device (100) for network-aware applications. The method can include the steps of - in the communications device - switching (314) to a communications network (110, 120, 130), determining (316) an identity of the communications network and in response to determining the identity of the communications network, altering (320) one or more applications (200) in the communications device such that the altered applications correspond to the communications network.
