11. A Call Session Control Function for servicing a user in an IP Multimedia Subsystem network, the Call Session Control Function comprising:
-
means for receiving from a Home Subscriber Server, a message containing one or more Service Profiles, the one or more Service Profiles identifying all public user identities, other than those belonging to an Implicit Registration Set, with which the Service Profile is associated; and means for associating the public user identities of at least one Service Profile as alias public user identities. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

19. A method of operating an IP Multimedia Subsystem to inform network nodes and/or user terminals of public user identities to be considered as alias public user identities, the method comprising:
-
maintaining at a Home Subscriber Server groupings of public user identities. other than those belonging to an Implicit Registration Set, to be considered as alias public user identities; and distributing the grouping information to network nodes and/or user terminals during or subsequent to registration of a user terminal with the IP Multimedia Subsystem, or upon or subsequent to terminating a call to a user terminal, or upon a change of content of the Service Profile. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28)
