13. A method of providing address information for reaching a wireless terminal, said wireless terminal being coupled to a first wireless communication network, a varying public address being dynamically allocated to said wireless terminal, and said wireless terminal being reachable from outside of the first wireless communication network by means of said varying public address, wherein the method comprises:
-
dynamically notifying an external name server, to which the wireless terminal has been registered by means of identification information associated with the wireless terminal, of a current public address of the wireless terminal, maintaining said current public address in said external name server in association with said identification information, and conditionally giving out said current public address from said external name server according to conditions given in profile information associated with said identification information, whereby the address information for reaching said wireless terminal is conditionally obtainable from said external name server by means of said identification information. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
