USING AN IP REGISTRATION TO AUTOMATE SIP REGISTRATION
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a network device, an Internet Protocol (IP) registration request associated with an access terminal;
determining registration information for the access terminal for an application layer registration; and
facilitating registration at the application layer using the determined registration information, the registration being performed automatically by the network device upon receiving the IP registration request.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a network device receives an Internet protocol (IP) registration request, such as a mobile IP registration request, from an access terminal. The network device may be a home agent that is configured to register the access terminal for IP services at the network layer. In addition to registering the access terminal at the network layer, the network device may facilitate registration at another layer, such as the application layer. In one example, registration information for the access terminal for an application layer registration, such as information needed to register for a session initiation protocol (SIP) services, is determined. The network device then facilitates registration at the application layer automatically using the registration information.
