- 25. A system for managing access from a plurality of communications networks (20, 21, 22) to a mobile terminal (10) connected to a mobile telecommunications network, wherein said system is adapted to set up at least one connection from at least one of said communications networks (20, 21, 22) to said mobile terminal (10) after said mobile terminal (10) has been identified in at least one address assignment server (33) (or Radius) to which said communications network (20, 21, 22) is going to establish said connection, after checking the existence of a user address of said mobile terminal (10), after verifying the accessibility to said mobile communications network, and after verifying the authorization for receiving incoming calls given by the user of said mobile terminal (10) identified for accessing said communications network (20, 21, 22)

34. A method of managing access from a plurality of communications networks (20, 21, 22) to a mobile terminal (10) connected to a mobile telecommunications network, comprising the steps of:
-
storing at least one identifier corresponding to a mobile terminal (10) in at least one application server (30) of one of said communications networks (20, 21, 22), sending a first command message to request identification of said mobile terminal (10) from said application server (30) to at least one domain name server (31) of said communications network (20, 21, 22), sending said first command message from said domain name server (31) to at least one user address search interface (32) of said communications network (20, 21, 22) to assign at least one user address to said mobile terminal (10), sending a second command message for assigning a network address with said user address of said mobile terminal (10) from said user address search interface to at least one incoming call request management interface (34) of said communications network (20, 21, 22), checking the existence of the received user 15 address in said call request management interface (34) connected to at least one network address assignment server (33), when said user address exists, said incoming call request management interface (34) sends a message to advise the existence of said address to said user address search interface (32), sending a fourth command message to process said user address from said access control interface (35) to at least one access authorization interface (14) situated in said mobile telecommunications network, verifying said accessibility to said mobile telecommunications network and said authorization for receiving incoming calls given by said user of said mobile terminal (10) in at least one home location register (13) of said mobile telecommunications network connected to said access authorization interface (14), sending said accessibility and said authorization of said user of said mobile terminal (10) from said access authorization interface (14) situated in said telecommunications network to said access control interface (35) situated in said communications network (20, 21, 22), for formatting said data, sending said accessibility and said authorization of said user of said mobile terminal (10) from said access control interface (35) to said incoming call request management interface (34) via said network address assignment server (33) of said communications network (20, 21, 22) for analysis, setting up a connection from said communications network (20, 21, 22) to said mobile terminal (10) to send at least one data item with said user address. - View Dependent Claims (35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41)
