Abstract
A method and system for providing message-based access to services includes receiving a request message from a mobile subscriber relating to a service that is desired by the mobile subscriber, routing the request message for processing, performing one or more activities in accordance with the requested service, returning a response message to the mobile subscriber, and facilitating/enabling/etc. access to the requested service.
Claims18
A server-based method for providing message-based access to a wireless access point, the server-based method comprising:
- receiving a request message from a Wireless Device (WD) of a Mobile Subscriber (MS), the request message (a) being a first communication indicative of a desire by the MS to gain access to the access point and (b) comprising an indicia of the WD and an indicia of a desired access time;
- performing a plurality of processing steps on the request message including at least (a) generating temporary, time-sensitive User Information (UI) and (b) preserving in a repository an association between the UI and at least the indicia of the WD;
- and
- returning a response message to the WD, the response message comprising the temporary UI.
A processor-based system on a server configured to provide message-based access to an access point, the processor-based system comprising:
- a first server-based gateway configured to receive a request message from a Wireless Device (WD) of a Mobile Subscriber (MS), the request message (a) being a first communication indicative of a desire by the MS to gain access to the access point and (c) comprising an indicia of the WD and an indicia of a desired access time;
- server-based processing logic configured to perform a plurality of processing steps on the request message including at least (a) generating temporary, time-sensitive User Information (UI) and (b) preserving in a repository an association between the UI and at least the indicia of the WD;
- and
- a second server-based gateway configured to return a response message to the WD, the response message comprising the temporary UI.
