1. A method for enabling registration of an aggregate end point device, comprising:
- performing a static registration of the aggregate end point device that is incapable of supporting a session initiation protocol based internet protocol multimedia subsystem registration in a network element of a plurality of network elements associated with an internet protocol multimedia subsystem network, wherein the network element comprises an application server providing a service feature, wherein the static registration comprises a registration process that is performed by a service provider of an internet protocol multimedia subsystem communication network using a provisioning process on behalf of the aggregate end point device; and
processing, by the application server, a call request associated with the aggregate end point device using the static registration.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for enabling registration of an Aggregate End Point (AEP) device that is incapable of supporting a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) based Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) registration are disclosed. The method performs a static registration of the AEP device in a plurality of network elements associated with an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network by provisioning. The method then processes an originating call request or a terminating call request associated with the AEP device using the static registration.
