9. A method comprising:
-
a server receiving from a network device a request for establishing a server initiated session with a mobile terminal; the server sending a connection request to the mobile terminal in response to receipt of the request for establishing the server initiated session; the server communicating a failure notification message to the network device in response to a failure to receive an indication of a connection with the mobile terminal within a first predetermined time or in response to a failure to receive an acknowledgement from the mobile terminal within a second predetermined time; the server sending a sample message to the mobile terminal in response to an indication of a connection with the mobile terminal; and the server sending a notification to the network device in response to the acknowledgment from the mobile terminal, the notification including information indicating whether configuration data was properly received at the mobile terminal. - View Dependent Claims (10)
