Abstract
Initial registration of a registration support system in a communication network requires complex signaling procedures, if the MSISDN remains unchanged for all mobile phones. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention an improved registration of a mobile station with PABX functionality in a communication network may be provided, wherein a group of users are enabled to share a common international mobile subscriber identity and mobile station ISDN number at different MSISDN extension numbers which are stored on the individuals SIM cards. Thus, core-network-internal signaling procedures may be considerably simplified.
