Cellular Device Identifier Provisioning Verification
First Claim
1. A method for ensuring accuracy and consistency of mobile station provisioning and activation parameters stored at multiple locations, where the parameters correspond to devices through which telematics services are provided, the method comprising:
- establishing a connection with a mobile station;
requesting the mobile station, with which a connection has been established, to transmit parameters stored at the mobile station;
receiving parameters from the mobile station;
identifying a subscriber account corresponding to one or more parameters received from the mobile station;
requesting, from a second source, information pertaining to a mobile station linked to the identified subscriber account;
receiving information from the second source; and
storing information received from the second source at the subscriber account.

Abstract
Systems and methods are described for confirming the accuracy and consistency of cellular device provisioning parameters such as telematics station identifiers (TSTIDs) stored at multiple locations. One implementation consists of a method for ensuring accuracy and consistency of parameters stored at multiple locations. The method involves storing parameters on a computer readable medium, connecting to a mobile station corresponding to a first stored parameter, and requesting the mobile station with which a connection has been established report parameters stored at the mobile station. The method further involves establishing an API call with a carrier network operator who provides services to the mobile station, transmitting a second stored parameter to the carrier network operator and requesting the carrier network operator report parameters corresponding to the second stored parameter. The method then compares the parameters received from the mobile station with the parameters received from the carrier network operator.

20. A system for ensuring accuracy and consistency of mobile station provisioning and activation parameters stored at multiple locations, where the parameters correspond to devices through which telematics services are provided, the system comprising:
-
a database configured to store subscriber account information; and a processor configured with computer executable instructions to establish a connection with a mobile station, request parameters from the mobile station with which a connection has been established. receive parameters from the mobile station, identify, on the database, a subscriber account corresponding to one or more parameters received from the mobile station, request, from a second source, information pertaining to a mobile station linked to the identified subscriber account, receive information from the second source, and write information received from the second source to the database.
