1. A method for an operation of a system controller in a system supporting machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, the method comprising:
- generating a first message that instructs to enter an idle mode and comprises a device-specific idle mode timer, the device-specific idle mode timer indicating a maximum time interval between two consecutive location updates during the idle mode; and
transmitting the first message to an mobile station (MS) to enter into the idle mode.

Abstract
An apparatus and method for supporting a location update registration process used for an idle mode operation of a Mobile Station (MS) in a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication are provided. The method includes determining whether a system global location update registration timer is applied to the MS, when it is determined that the global location update registration timer is not applied, determining a timer for updating a location when the MS operates in an idle mode, and transmitting a message including the timer to the MS.
