Abstract
Disclosed is a method for configuring a home node with a secure address for an operator network node. In the method, the home node receives, from a removable smartcard, an initial address for an initial serving network node. The home node establishes communication with the initial serving network node using the initial address. The home node receives the secure address from the initial serving network node. The home node communicates with the operator network node using the secure address.

A method for configuring a home node with a secure address for an operator network node, comprising:
- the home node receiving, from a removable smartcard, an initial address for an initial serving network node;
- the home node establishing communication with the initial serving network node using the initial address;
- the home node receiving the secure address from the initial serving network node;
- and
- the home node communicating with the operator network node using the secure address.
A home node, comprising:
- means for receiving, from a removable smartcard, an initial address for an initial serving network node;
- means for establishing communication with the initial serving network node using the initial address;
- means for receiving a secure address from the initial serving network node;
- and
- means for communicating with an operator network node using the secure address.
A home node, comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- receive, from a removable smartcard, an initial address for an initial serving network node;
- establish communication with the initial serving network node using the initial address;
- receive a secure address from the initial serving network node;
- and
- communicate with an operator network node using the secure address.
A computer program product, comprising:
- computer-readable medium, comprising:
- code for causing a computer to receive, from a removable smartcard, an initial address for an initial serving network node;
- code for causing a computer to establish communication with the initial serving network node using the initial address;
- code for causing a computer to receive a secure address from the initial serving network node;
- and
- code for causing a computer to communicate with an operator network node using the secure address.
A method for configuring a home node with a secure address for an operator network node, comprising:
