Abstract

See full text

A system (100) and method (140) for facilitating automatic translation of signals between a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) (104) and an Internet Protocol (IP)-based network (102) in a communications system (100) having a gateway (108) providing an exchange mechanism between the PLMN (104) and the IP-based network (102). The IP-based network (102) contains a Network Access Controller (NAC) (106) configured to communicate with the gateway (108). The method includes the steps of provisioning IP address and port number identifiers of the gateway within the NAC (142) and sending a registration message (124) from the NAC to the gateway (146), where the registration message (124) contains the IP address and port information of nodes within the IP-based network (102). The information in the registration message (124) is used to update a translation function (128) within the gateway (108).
