Service provision in a communication system
First Claim
1. A method for obtaining parameters relating to a service provided in a communication system, the method comprising:
- storing a first set of parameters relating to a service, wherein the first set of parameters is valid when the service is controlled by a first network;
determining whether a second set of parameters is needed, wherein the second set of parameters relating to said service is valid when said service is controlled by a second network; and
obtaining the second set of parameters, if the second set of parameters is determined to be needed.

Abstract
A method enables obtaining parameters relating to a service provided in a communication system. The method comprises storing a first set of parameters relating to a service, the first set of parameters being valid when the service is controlled by a first network. The method further comprises determining whether a second set of parameters is needed, the second set of parameters relating to said service and being valid when said service is controlled by a second network. The method further comprises obtaining the second set of parameters, when needed. A communication device is configured to execute the method.

30. A method for controlling provision of a service provided in a communication system, the method comprising:
-
receiving a request for providing a service to a user of a client, wherein the service is controlled by a network of the communication system that uses at least one controlling network dependent parameter;
verifying whether the user of the client belongs to a network controlling provision of the service;
determining whether the client needs a set of parameters, that relate to the service, when the user of the client belongs to a network other than the network controlling the provision of the service and;
providing the set of parameters, if it is determined the client needs to be provided with the set of parameters. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41)
