Abstract
A new session or handoff procedure is triggered for a mobile station in a communications network having a packet switched network connected to a wireless network. A data identifier from the wireless network is determined which indicates the location of the mobile station in the wireless network. A list maintained in a gateway connected between the wireless network and the packet switch network associates data identifiers of the packet switched network with data identifiers of the wireless network. The data identifier of the packet switched network indicating the location of the mobile station in the wireless network is determined using the list maintained in the gateway.
